Firefox Community Forum

On the web browser the tool bars have grown to fill half the screen. Book marks i was able to control but can find no solution for the others. I cant use fire fox like this. Opera and many others did this in the past and we all came over to fire fox because you were one of the few who didnt take half the screen from us. Is there a solution

other than full screen?

Hello, This issue might or might not be related to [other issue] I have since I updated Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 and therefore updated my Firefox to 104. I can't login anymore on Letterboxd since the update. It's not a problem of username or password. When I click "Sign in", nothing happens except a page refresh, but I'm still not logged in. Other strange behaviour on that site since the update: most of the images don't appear. For example on this page : https://letterboxd.com/films/# all the movie covers are just blank.

The website does work properly when using Firefox in private mode though (both login and images work fine), so this makes me think it's related to my other issue mentioned above.

OS: Ubuntu 22.04 Firefox 104.0.2

EDIT after posting this question: I just found out that I can't login on Google either. I enter my username, password, then it asks me to validate on another apparel that it's really me, which I do, and nothing happens so I can't login. It works normally in private mode.

Hello, I've upgraded my Ubuntu distribution from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 yesterday. This forced me to update my Firefox version, I am now running the 104.0.2. I now have the following issue: on some websites, the page loads normally but as soon as it's loaded, the page becomes entirely blank. This doesn't seem to be a website issue, as it actually appears normal for a very short instant before it disappears. A website for which this happens is: https://www.lalibre.be/ (I only encountered the issue on another website but it's from the same editor). I tried in a private window and it works normally! I tried in the normal window after deactivating all the addons, it still doesn't work. I tried with or without the Firefox account logged in, it doesn't work. Until now, it's only these 2 websites from the same editor, but as I said, they worked fine yesterday, they work fine on other browsers and they work fine in Firefox private mode. Any idea where this might come from?

My husband was a long-time Firefox user and recently passed away. I am the sole beneficiary and executor of his estate and provide a copy of the will and death certificate if necessary. The issue here, is unlike me, I cannot find the Firefox account to sync his passwords to my machine. I do have access to his machine and could open each web site and copy the information to a spread sheet if necessary - but obviously not a great workaround. So is there any way to gain access to that password.

Now for the obvious question - it's just a matter of equipment: he used a trackball, I prefer my mouse and I am considerably more comfortable with the keyboard on my machine.

Any help you can offer would be very helpful!

Best regards! Loralie

Howdy, I just need to sync Firefox on my iMac and on my MacBook Pro. But this is surprisingly difficult to do. [[this page|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-sync-my-computer]] says to "click the 'Sign In' button next to 'Sync and save data'". It shows a handy little screenshot of a Sign In button, but I cannot see said button or the Sync and save data button even though I'm signed in to Firefox. This page gives me a handy QR code to sync Firefox on my mobile device, but I want to sync Firefox on my laptop. This page [[about:preferences#searchResults]] ] says "Sorry! There are no results in Settings for 'sync'". (Why ever not?)

It seems it should be very easy to sync Firefox between two computers; indeed it should be blindingly obvious, but it's not. What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for your help.

My mouse cursor is suddenly extremely slow whenever firefox has focus. Instead of crossing the entire screen with a small hand movement, I get maybe 1/10th of the width of the screen with the same movement.

Since version 98, Firefox still saves files in the designated Downloads folder, even if I just want to open them. This new behavior keeps cluttering up the Downloads folder with unnecessary garbage. What I want to have in there is what I choose to download myself, not some temporary files. That's what the Temp folder is for.

The problem https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1370409 is marked as closed, unfortunately with no fix. Will anyone be addressing this yet, or do users have to get used to it?

I, after a few months, chose to switch back to version 97.0.2 I will no longer accept updates regardless of new security patches. Unfortunately.

When I click on www.accuweather.com and POPUPS are BLOCKED, I continue to get a popup page. Please help as I DO NOT want a popup from them.

Can somebody kindly help!

I have been using Firefox for a couple of years now, and it has become unstable in its operation, when typing its slowiing the system and all your words are jumbled as it can't keep up. also it keeps coming up with 'not resonding' all the time, I have tried re-installing it, it then seems ok for a couple of days then its starts all over again. I have tried using 'Chrome again' and the problems do not appear at all using this browser, but I do like using Firefox so please fix it.

Hello Every time I turn my computer on and go into firefox I have to go to logins & password and click on "Ask to save logins and passwords for websites". Why is it doing this? Why do I have to reset it every time I go into firefox? Kind regards

I have the latest version of Firefox 78.15.0esr (64-bit) on my Macbook Pro. Netflix says, "Looks like your browser is no longer supported. Please install the latest version or install another browser. Error Code F7121-3078" (see image 1).

Netflix streaming works fine on Opera, but I can't get it working on Firefox, even though it was working fine on Firefox a couple of days ago (Sept 15, 2022). Any help you can offer would be appreciated very much. I have two plug ins: Facebook Container and EFF Privacy Badger. There is no update available to update Firefox. It appears that when the new version of Widevine updated yesterday (see image 2), the browser stopped working for streaming on Netflix. Widevine version 4.10.2209.1 (updated Sept 16, 2022).

After some trouble installing and updating that I described in my former questions, I currently run FF 91.13.0esr on my system.

Some websites however claim that I use an obsolete version of FF and refuse to work or work only partially. First I thought that they define the esr itself as obsolete vs. the normal FF version. However when I checked how websites see my FF version I received FF 52 myself:

whatsmybrowser.org/b/SSI2N

When I click on Help / About Firefox I get FF 91.13.0.esr and a green check that it´s uptodate.

So - is there some leftover old data in FF from updating that makes it pretend to be FF 52? In the shared data below the "user agent" seems to do that but I did not use an add-on to change that after I had moved the system from Windows XP SP3 32bit to Windows 10 64 bit.

I Am having tab crashes in both Firefox and Chrome. I had BSOD, now I don't, after I replaced RAM (BSOD pointed to faulty RAM - no driver issues). But still I have tab crashes every day, or another, or couple times in a day. This is my about:crashes report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/5c363b68-4d8d-4407-89a5-e5d0f0220917 - xul.dll appears often! I have 16GB RAM and it happens with page file to set either to system managed to or to 16-32GB... It happens even when 50% of RAM is free! I also tried sfc /scannow and DISM, and system repair! Updated BIOS and all my drivers... It started happening completely out of blue sky...

I Am on Windows 10 20H2 19042.1889 Desktop.

Youtube comments are not showing up. Youtube live chat works fine. Issue started happening recently on both my PC and laptop. I checked other browsers and this issue doesn't exist there.

I recently found that my saved logins had disappeared. Not sure if this happened after a Firefox crash, Firefox update or Windows update. Unfortunately after reviewing the information on recovering the file I found that none of the methods worked for me. Also since I had no idea this had happened I had already done some password resets on web sites and Firefox had saved them which most likely wiped out the backup logins file. This is a real black mark for Firefox. If the logins.json file is corrupted you should display a prominent warning on startup so that users have a fair chance to recover before inadvertently wiping out the back up file. I do not use mobile devices (and you should NOT assume that everyone does) so there is no other device to recover the logins from. Fortunately I save some passwords in a password manager so not all is lost. But its hard to have confidence in your browser if this can happen without warning or notification. Very sloppy work.
