You can fix the software problem without requiring a system restore to do so. It only is happening with Firefox, not other browsers. The website display in some coding format, which I don't know how to use.

Text with links cannot be marked for copying correctly. similar in https://www.dkb.de/privatkunden/girok.../vorteilswelt -> Deine persönliche Einführung ins Web-Banking -> Jetzt anmelden Probleme bei der Anmeldung? Only all section text can be marked. Main problem: Inside the online banking it is impossible to mark the transactions, see attached image. All 3 items should be marked, but only the numbers get marked (in red).

I have my settings set to automatically update Firefox. Earlier this week, Firefox 131.0 was installed through this automatic update. Since then, Firefox repeatedly and randomly crashes, and I have no idea why because it did not happen with previous Firefox versions. There seems to be a bug in the new release that is causing this.

Firefox won't connect to this site I just updated it to the newest version. It works on edge, chrome. It says The page isn’t redirecting properly

The initial grid of targets used to be most of the width of my display, but now it is only the middle third.

What setting has changed and how do I set it back?

Hello - I have Windows 7 and the recent Firefox Version 115.16.0esr update. As of today, the Firefox start page does not open completely (no images) and I can no longer access the internet through Firefox (error message - can't connect to the server). This message is displayed regardless of the web page I'm attempting to access and the network connection is good. In Settings, under Firefox Updates, the allowed option is to Automatically install updates when Firefox is not running and I've restarted the computer. Is there a bug with the new Firefox version or does Firefox no longer work with Windows 7? Thanks

When using google workspace apps (docs, slides, sheets, etc.) I am unable to use the menus to cut, copy, and paste. Instead, I am forced to use the key binds, which are super annoying and less convenient than opening a menu and pasting quickly with my mouse. Past articles from Reddit and one on the support site claim that having "dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled" set to true makes it work, but it does nothing and I still cannot paste using the menus.

So I'm trying to apply a configuration profile in Microsoft Intune that enforces managed policies for Firefox. I have 40 different OMA-URI settings configured for it, 39 of which apply and report as "Succeeded". I can verify that these are working on a test device.

The problematic setting that is not applying to the test device is "ManagedBookmarks". It is reporting with an Error.

Here is the setting for the particular policy:

• Name: ManagedBookmarks
• Description: Adds bookmarks into a managed folder.
• OMA-URI: ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Firefox~Policy~firefox/ManagedBookmarks
• Data type: String
• Value:

<enabled/> <data id="JSON" value=' [

 {
   "toplevel_name": "Bookmark Folder"
 },
 {
   "url": "https://www.ticketsoftware.com",
   "name": "Ticketing"
 },
 {
   "url": "https://www.paymentsoftware.com",
   "name": "Payment"
 },
 {
   "url": "https://portal.office.com",
   "name": "Microsoft Office"
 }

]'/>

I have anonymized a couple of the above bookmarks for privacy. I will note, I have also tried to nest the bookmark items as child items under the toplevel_name (with the correct JSON formatting of course). This also failed to deploy the policy.

Am I missing something here? I am trying to follow the documentation at https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/v6.3/docs/index.md#managedbookmarks to a T, but it still fails. Everything else works though!

Hi community,

I want to configure a guest account on a ubuntu system. This is done by configuring a standard account and link the guest account to the standard account.

For firefox that means, that the .mozilla directory of the guest account points to the .mozilla-directory of the standard account. (The files in the standard account are not changes, so every new guest session starts with the same preconfigured environment.)

When starting firefox in the guest session, most of the settings, e.g. homepage, installed language packs, coockie settings, are recognized. Strange enough, the language packs have to be enabled again. Somehow firefox in the guest session realizes that firefox is run the first time in the newly created guest account. In my use case, firefox starts up in English because the German language pack is disabled. In the configured standard account the language packs are enabled, active, etc..

With thunderbird the behaviour is different: Copying the .thunderbird (or appdata/roaming/thunderbird-folder in Windows) leads to a completely configured thunderbird. No "first run"-questions or -settings have to be answered.

My questions are: 1) How does firefox realize that is has a "first run" situation? Why is copying the .mozilla-folder not enough for transfering the profile(s)? How can firefox be configured to use the existing .mozilla-directory without asking first run questions? 2) How can firefox in a first run situation (with complete profiles and correct profile.ini) be started with e.g. an enabled German language pack.

Thanks a lot

Martin
