FF 109 added a new addons-button (jigsaw puzzle icon) in the addons-toolbar. Can we hide it with a specific variable in about:config, or by creating a specific variable there?

Screen data is displayed upside down and backwards - currently booting either Ubuntu or Windows 10 separately - the Windows 10 boot has no problems with either Microsoft Edge or Firefox - the problem occurs when booting Ubuntu with Firefox. I have had this configuration for over seven (7) years with no problems. Any suggestions to correct problem would be appreciated - thanks. Chuck, Simi Valley, California cerco@earthlink.net

Firefox updated and now my tabs are above the address bar, I hate it. I have went through all the information I could and created a new chrome folder, downloaded the css and changed user preferences but it sets the tabs to the bottom of the screen not just below the address bar. I think I need a different set of code for the css but cant find a copy. Does anyone know what to do?

Hi

Running Firefox 71.0 (64 bit)

Well seems Firefox has been messing this up again.

Anyone have the new work around solution to get my tabs back on the bottom again. They were fine this morning then shut down and went out to lunch and when I came back they were back on the top again after months of being where I wanted them below my bookmark bar.

Thoughts on this?

Thanks Dave

This website, https://community.cubigo.com/#/home, does not function using release 109. The site depends on .js files. There had never been a problem with prior releases, and everything is cool with Chrome and Edge.

Currently running Firefox v109. Problem existed with 108.0.2 also. Probably only a week or two before that, downloading pdf ran fine.

Downloading a pdf from Firefox "Failed". If I switch in Settings to open in a new Firefox window, it also fails.

Currently running Adobe Acrobat XI Professional locally.

Am able to download a pdf from Chrome successfully.

Hi all,

On your latest install Firefox 108.0.1 my tabs have moved to the bottom of my browser near my taksbar in window 10. The tabs are not working correctly. Please fix. Thank you.

P.S. it working in firefox safe mode. The tabs show a the top of screen and you can add multiple tabs.

Do I just Google now, or can I use bookofthemonthclub.com/gift of how do I use it in the https space?

I use FireFox with Windows 10.

Recently I had a website that would not allow me to pay no matter what. Their Techs had me do EVERYTHING - - including deleting and changing all kinds of settings. Still nothing worked. (I don't even know how to get back normal settings, but I don't trust anyone and have all kinds of permissions turned off). Then they told me it was a problem with their website. This process took over 6 hours speaking with many multiple morons worldwide.

Now, another website will not function normally - it says SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE.

How can I fix this?

I already emailed and told them to renew their certificate.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I've recently made the switch to Firefox last month and was trying to view a PDF embedded inline on a site (Canvas, commonly used in schools and universities), but kept getting a blank box. I had to download the file to view it- I couldn't just preview it. I'm aware that "previewing" or "opening" PDFs without choosing to save them actually just saved them to a temp folder locally which the system would delete eventually on its own, and this new change from version 98+ supposedly "optimizes" the download process because "Firefox no longer saves files to a temporary folder because of the downsides to saving files in a location that is hard to discover."

Downsides? What downsides???

Removing that feature quite literally does the opposite of optimizing when the average user, and in fact all users, benefit from being able to preview PDFs by keeping them in a temp folder. If we wanted to download something, we would choose to save the file where we want it to be. You're literally presenting "save file" and "open file" as if they're two different choices, when "open file" is really just "save file, and then we open it for you, and you have to manually delete it yourself later!". This is objectively a downgrade in every way. There's no optimization here. I realize that me as just one person asking for this will fall on deaf ears, but I have to try. Please bring back the option to preview files by automatically saving them to a temp folder without me having to set my default download folder for ALL files as a temp folder.

Please think about the situation of someone like a teacher who needs to mark 40 students' PDF homework submissions in Canvas, which lets you quickly change between inline previews within the site of each PDF with its grading UI on the side, making it convenient for them to grade. With this change they either have to download 40 PDFs onto their hard drive, or go back to using Chrome, where the PDF.js extension (the very same PDF viewer that's built into Firefox and backed by Mozilla?!) actually will let them preview the temp files, no problem. And I'm not even teaching right now, I'm just a student who fell into this rabbit hole because I wanted to do my homework and all the PDFs are blank boxes in Firefox while they appear just fine on Chrome.

I really want to be using Firefox full time. I really do! But by taking away this very useful feature, you're literally forcing my hand into using Chrome again.

Hello,

we use firefox in our company and the requirement appeared to turn on the security setting "Delete cookies and sitedata when closing Firefox" due to our security guidelines.

I´ve already checked the "Enterprise Policy Generator" Plugin, but there is no such option. Is there a possibilty to check this option and block it for the user by the about:config page?

Thanks in advance, J.Stempel

I have many bookmark folders with many items in each folder. Some folders have many,many items in those individual folders. To scroll down the many items I have in a folder takes time. Is there any shortcut I can use to get to the end of the list in a folder without scrolling down for five minutes to get to the end of a list? I have looked in the Firefox website but I have not seen this question. I have many folders that have a lot of items I have bookmarked. Thanks for any help you can give.

Hello, for whatever reason, Firefox is making the website fonts bold. Not sure why or how... I've checked settings in windows and firefox, and seems normal. I've also checked same website in Chrome and it is not bold. Any help?

Hi, I login daily to my Coinbase account "https://www.coinbase.com/" using FF, and after the latest update 109.0 (64-bit), after entering username, FF keeps looping back to the login page asking for username again. There is no login issue when using Chrome or Brave browsers. Thank you

So I have the tab bar hidden in 1.08. I have it going to self made userChrome.css file. This is the only thing in that file:

1. TabsToolbar { visibility: collapse !important; }

Issue is now I have no close button along with the other usual buttons with it. So what do I need to mod in that file to get them back?

Thanks

This issue needs to be corrected as it is causing problems.

As you will see from the attached acreenshots, when a file wants to be downloaded, I get the expected Ask options and even though I selected Open with Adobe it still downloads the file.

Picture 1 shows the options, picture 2 shows the file open in Adobe, picture 3 shows it downloaded to my PC and picture 4 shows that I selected Always ask you where to save files so why is the file still downloading.

It creates a nuisance as I only want to open most files and if I decide to save them, I can do that so why is Firefox still saving files whether I want to or not !?!

Now I have to go to the file, delete it and empty the recycle bin for security reasons so this issue needs to be resolved as it used to work fine in previous version of Firefox.

Maybe there is a setting that I need to change so any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated.

I am currently running Firefox 109.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10, Version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.2486).

Thanks.
