Firefox Community Forum

So I just saw the List All Tabs button has come back, and I looked up to remove this, but doing the whole thing of setting the browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled = false in About:config, did not work. I just updated to version 131.0 of Firefox. Any idea why this thing is refusing to leave?

i've been using JetInsight.com for more than 18 months. it is bookmarked. suddenly, it will not operate in firefox. it used to automatically log me in, now it asks for a login, but never even gets past that to ask for a passwork.

this website continues to work in chrome, safari and edge, on the same PC as well as my other devices (ipad, iphone) - but not with firefox. no other website, bookmarked or otherwise has this issue. i've cleared all cookies and history. nothing has fixed this.

what can i do?

Hi - have been having an issue since 128 where I can't select items in certain menus in Firefox with the mouse. Each time I open Firefox, it works once. Subsequently, the focus in the menu is completely off from where I put my mouse, and I can't click anything. (I would upload a video, but there doesn't seem to be a way). An example of the behavior is: -hamburger menu open. Mouse is on 'Translate page', but focus is on 'save page as'.

• This happens with both the trackpad and the mouse.
• I don't experience this issue with other applications.
• I can navigate some of the menu options with the keyboard. For example, in the Bookmark menu I can select Save, but not Remove bookmark.
• I don't have any issue with the main nav bar (File, Edit, etc)

This applies to for example: Save bookmarks (cmd+d), Hamburger Menu, and the new Translation dialog (where it prompts you to translate). I can't inspect them to see if they are all the same component that is causing the issue, because they disappear if you choose Inspect. (I'm unable to see a "Disable popup autohide" setting in my meatball menu, as described here). I also tried the steps listed [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../957538] here. Things I have tried:

• resetting PRAM/SMC just in case
• disabling hardware acceleration
• starting in safe mode
• refreshing Firefox
• updating to the latest version (twice)

I have what i am sure is a common scenario, a work pc (mac) and home pc (linux), and I want to have a work profile and home profile that are independently synced across those PCs.

It's no problem to setup sync for the work profile but while setting up sync for the home profile it seems firefox doesn't grok that the home profile already exists and treats it like a new mozilla account.

In debugging this issue (and the "Primary account email required for sign-in" issue, which prevented me from signing in at all) i've come across numerous articles that imply this basic home<->home work<->work sync across 2 devices does not work with firefox. Is this the case? this is a basic (IMO mandatory) requirement for a browser in 2024 and even the difficulty of setting this up is super jarring coming from Chrome.

Today I manually download and rename the firefox executable so a script that runs as a Sandbox is spun up is ready to go immediately. But that entails me manually downloading, then renaming the installer to a name that the script always knows. And often the setup file gets updated on the web and I am running the prior version, or older depending on when I went thru that manual process.

So I am back looking for a way to either find a way to download the newest installer each time or find a way to kick off the internal updater right after its currently scripted install completes. Either could work.

I hate having to use Edge as its the browser MS automatically installs when a sandbox is spun up.

Or are there other ideas on how to accomplish this? Thanks, Bill

Good afternoon colleagues  have  a challenge when  visit website for library genesis http://libgen.rs/ to download a book  get the above response what can be the solution to get around this issue?Have tried in other browsers microsoft edge,chrome similar thing.

When I type in Word 365 (Mozilla Firefox, 129.0.2 (64-bit)- snap for Ubuntu 24.04), using East European characters (e.g. š, č, ž), the text after the first such written character (see the first uploaded image) disappears after going to new line (pressing Enter or moving mouse to another line) (see the second uploaded image). It worked before on the Ubuntu 22.04 with manually installed firefox (not from snap) and is also working in Chrome.

I am unable to find the solution. I already installed additional fonts, I also created links to the installed fonts in $USER/snap/current/.local/share but nothing helps.

Has anyone encountered similar problem (and found a solution)?

Got the following Error message today after update downloaded. "Error:Platform version '129.0.1 is not compatible with minVersion >= 129.0 maxVersion <= 129.0

whenever I use a fire fox browser my game (specifically minecraft doesnt happen on any other game) my mouse goes completely invisible whenever my browser is open, and ive tried closing it and trying a different browser like waterfox which also gets the issue and ive tried chrome that DOESNT get the issue. I havent had this problem before since recently and I dont believe I have done any changes to my game or my firefox so i'd like to get help on why this happens specifically on firefox/waterfox, and why its only minecraft and no other games

I mistakenly removed an important extension (LinkLocker, which I wrote, actually) from my synced work computer, not realizing it would be removed from my home laptop as well.

Unfortunately, I saved a significant amount of data in that extension's storage and, after reinstalling it, can't seem to recover it.

Is this data lost forever or is there some place I can look to find it?

Hi, I tried to search to embed firefox browser in java swing application in version 1.8 of openjdk but could not find any working link. Could I get some help on this please. My use case is that I have a button called 'open link'. On click on this button, I want to open a URL in new popup or window of application and this window will be stcky, i.e., untill this window with the browser is closed, user will not be able to interact with the previous application window (main application window).

On Firefox for Windows the touch and pen logic is a mess. When I hover over something with the pen or scroll using touch, Firefox seems to make both elements hover and triggers even JavaScript related code at very high rate. These 2 elements are where the real mouse/cursor is on the screen and where the currently touching or hovering over element is. For example rest your mouse on the YouTube HTML5 player, then use a pen to hover over the browsers close button or even just something else on the web page like the like button. This will ramp up the CPU and make both the player and the like button your are hovering flicker between ::hover and ::normal. This will also call lot's of instances of these related events in the website's JavaScript. Another semi-related issue is when using the F12 developer tools in "Device Simulation" mode, It's impossible to for some reason because Firefox fakes real touch injections into the OS (and they show up as if I touched the screen by the OS) which cancels the precision touchpad input movement until I lift my finger from the touchpad. This is specifically a "Windows Precision Touchpad" issue, and There is no known fix to this apart from not using a such a touchpad... On old 10+ year old laptops with PS/2 or proprietary Touchpads that report themselves as a normal Mouse this issue won't occour but Firefox will still input system-wide touch input. As a developer myself this seems very silly because you own the source code and could solve this way more elegantly than asking the OS to input Touch events... Let me know if you need anything else, and point me out where the source for the input (specifically for touch and pen) live so I can take a look at it and make some improvements. Thanks

In the last few days, a transparent rectangular panel is showing up in the upper right hand corner when I open certain websites--Washington Post, The Nation, and Talking Points Memo, and this morning Kanopy and the Zojirushi website. It often covers functions like login and search. I can *see* the buttons, but I can't click them through the transparent panel.

Hello, I'm having an issue with how Firefox is displaying images on some of our product pages. The image appears to be zoomed in which cuts off the side of the product image. The exact same product page displays completely fine when using Safari and Chrome. I cannot figure out the issue. Please see attached images.

I have tried:

modifying the about:config page prefs:

   browser.enable_automatic_image_resizing
   browser.enable_click_image_resizing 

I have also tried resetting the zoom features (Command/Conrl +/-/0).

I have also tried reinstalling firefox and running the browser without any extensions.

None of these worked. Any suggestions?
