 This i sin a b lock in settings. What the hell does it mean????

Can we please reduce the size of the mandatory bars up top? Is the Fox going to be like Opera and the rest and make us leave? Why do they want half the screen? They took away the controls and then started making them fat. Right now I have 2/3 screen. Anybody have a solution? I know there is no explanation why they all do this. They never answer. Thanks.

The icon for 1Password is not showing on my toolbar, neither is the one for adblock or Google Scholar or No Miner. How can I get them back? I'm using Firefox version v 115.0.1 on an M1 Mac running Mac OS v 13.4.1. They seem to be within the Extensions iconon the toolbar. Is that their permanent location now?

Thanks

Michael

See image. Why is some manual pages like this and others are normal. This has just started, and the Publication company told me to use chrome because this never happens there. I have less problems with firefox so i stay here but this just started after latest update.

I recently started experiencing errors for logging into third-party websites that use Google sign-in.

On one site (coches.net), I have the sign-in popup loop for like 3 times and then disappear but leaves me unlogged.

On the other site (etoro.com), the sign-in popup shows but then I get an error message from the site about the login. Then it won't let me reconnect since CloudFlare won't accept my "I'm not a robot" prompt and keeps reloading the same page.

This started happening yesterday. I'm not aware of any Firefox or Anti-Virus updates that have happened since, measures not existing yesterday.

I can sign-in correctly from Chrome with no issues.

I cannot log into New York Times via Firefox - ms says it thinks my IP is a bot. Also blocked on a local newspaper Montreal Gazette. I am able to log in w/ no prob on Opera - please advise? thanks!

Is it possible to permanently set a different search engine for private browsing? I have Google set as my search engine in my normal browsing mode, but I'd like the private browser search engine to be permanently set to DuckDuckGo.

(I realise I can manually set it each time to DuckDuckGo but this is tedious.)

With thanks.

When a new bookmark is created, it isn't saved in the specified location (which I will henceforth call the "folder").

For example: I'm on a page I want to bookmark, so I select Bookmarks>Bookmark Current Tab. In the Location it already has the folder I want, for example, "Math". I click Save.

Naturally, I expect the bookmark to be saved in the Math folder. But it's not. Instead, it will be in the "Bookmarks Menu" folder (which is the outer folder that contains Math). If I select Bookmarks>Edit This Bookmark, the location will show "Bookmark Menus", not "Math". If I try to use the bookmark, it's in Bookmark Menus. If I then change it to Math, the bookmark will now be saved in the correct folder.

The same thing happens if I select "Choose" when originally creating the bookmark, and then select the folder. The bookmark will be created in Bookmarks Menu.

I've learned to always (or almost always) remember to edit each bookmark after creating it, but it's still a very annoying bug. It's been like that for as long as I can recall, and is still the way in 115.0.1.

just updated to 115.0.1 on the Mac yesterday and now tradingview website isn't working - i tried adding it as an exception in EnhancedTracking and CookieSiteData like i did with ebay to get it working again but no luck with tradingview... any ideas ? thx

My firefox installation always run in English with all of its interface elements being in English. One of the recent updates introduced a weird behavior - some of the UI became Russian. I seem to have fixed/bypassed the issue last time it happened https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1415337 but nothing works this time.

Most of my firefox is in English, but some elements such as tab titles in devtools, browser popups "do you want to leave this page", tooltips in this very text form where I'm typing right now - are in Russian for no apparent reason.

I have another profile on this firefox installation and it's completely in English as intended. I tried to check for what changed in about:config, looking for "language" or "locale" string, and there's nothing that stands out. I've tried clearing startup cache, switching language back and forth, restarting firefox.

Any suggestions?

Hello! I have saved a password in firefox. This I have recently renewed and saved again. Now I urgently need the old version of this password saved in firefox. Is there any way to recover it? Thanks a lot!

Hello, Just the last couple of days I have been unable to view PDF documents using Firefox. The documents appear but all words and numbers have been replaced with symbols. I cleared my cache of cookies thinking that may have caused the issue but the problem remains. Do you have any other ideas to solve this issue??

I have a new, updated firefox on a faster computer. However, I've notice that many files, especially videos, while they download at normal speed, can take over 10 minutes to actually START downloading. It also seems to vary based on whether I'm downloading from a download link, a page like mediafire, using "save video as", etc. It will just stay on the screen, with the little dot on its' tab going back and forth.
