Firefox-Hilfeforum

In most standard Windows applications, the title bar and tab colour follows the default Windows settings, e.g. (in my case) the title bar and tab colour of active application windows is blue. This is true even in Thunderbird. Since FF 89, title bar and tabs are something between white and light gray, which is extremely user-un-friendly. FF developer team should return to the previous colour scheme. Yes, I know the circumstances of free software but this is NO excuse to alienate millions of users. Developers that change fully functionable software just, well, just to CHANGE it should consider that they are doing WRONG. Could anyone tell them? I am just user, not developer and I am not willing to learn developer tools like BugZilla just for this simple guiding principle.

It is insistent.

I have found a 6 year old post that uses links that firefox no longer uses: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1092276

The instructions there no longer seem to work, I deleted cookies, closed firefox and ran CCleaner, it is still always redirecting me to .hk.

The site looks different, shitty and keeps asking me to log in or agree to some bullshit settings.

Very strange, has anyone seen this before?

I have had a trip to Europe recently and ever since my return (to Canada), I do not see Pocket articles on New Tab page. I know that Pocket in New Tab page is currently available only in North America. Is it this trip or new version 92 that cause this problem. I want my pocket articles back. Any suggestions?

Recently I have been seeing, what I believe is character encoding errors on many web sites.

As you can see from the attached, it appears as a series of 'ddddddddddd' but if I copy and paste that into Word or a text editor it appears correctly. Kinda random, some sites, some areas.

My Firefox automatically updates, so I do not know what version this started.

I want to have a different browser settings for both browsing the web and controlling my media player.

I currently do this by using a different browser, firefox for web and opera for a local web based music player.

Ideally I would like a browser instance that only has only Close and Minimise buttons and retains size and position. I cannot seem to do this with any browser, they all want to give me tabs, menus, shortcuts, in short, to much clutter. I have managed to create a chromeless window but then that becomes the default for all browing windows.

I would like to achieve this with just Firefox.

My last try was this, with Chrome because Firefox wouldnt play at all.

--app="data:text/html,<script>window.location='http://moode.local/#notarget';window.resizeTo(750,600);window.moveBy(246, 50);</script>"

According to the release info for the latest update (Version 92.0):

"The bookmark toolbar menus on macOS now follow Firefox visual styles."

I have no idea what that means or how to fix it! All I know is that the lists of bookmarks I have saved under toolbar tabs are now all double-spaced. I don't want them double-spaced — that makes all the lists twice as long! I just want them the way they were before the update . . . HELP!!!

Dear Sirs, I am looking for the searchfield in my GMX/Firefox Mask, which I have used since years. See screenshot attached. Thanks in advance for your help. With kind regards Alexander Dombrowsky

Over the last few days whenever I watch Youtube videos (specifically on Youtube, this happens on no other sites such as Netflix, Disney+, Twitch, etc.) the video will freeze for a good few seconds, but the audio will still play and then the video will jump to wherever it got up to in the time it was frozen.

I'm not really sure how to fix this, I've tried clearing the cache etc. but the issue still persists. I even tried turning off uBlock Origin but that didn't fix it either.

Has anyone ever had a similar issue and found a fix? It's pretty annoying.

When trying to access this website with Firefox 92.0 (Mac OS10.15.7), I get a message that my log in data (user ID, password) is not correct. However, using Safari my login is successful, and the same using my iPhone or iPad. I have raised the issue with the operator of the website, but thought that maybe there is something that can fix the problem directly in Firefox ??

Hi all, I get this notice everytime I try to access ANY website, from Google to Amazon to CNN. I read this article, but does not help, as I can't press any tab, even the so called link, as in the pic attached. Please help, what can I do? Thanks stefano.segre1@gmail.com

every time I open coles online shopping a stupid thing says the page will slow my computer and stops the page from loading can you piss this stupid thing off that was in a recent upgrade you have just taken browsers back 20 years with this stuff up. My coles online was working perfectly a week ago now I can't use it at all fix your browser firefox.

This happens regularly for me, about 3 or 4 times per day. It used to be exclusively when I'm visiting https://translate.google.com. Today, however, it is also happening on twitter.com.

When it happens however, it has always been when I'm navigating to one of those domains in open tab that I was using. Also, it has always been when I'm relying on the bar's autocomplete (for example, when I start typing "tra" and the rest is auto completed to translate.google.com) and I tap the Enter key. No amount of refreshes fixes the problem even if I disable cache (I disabled it from the network inspector in the web developer tools). There's only one warning message in the console saying "This error page has no error code in its security info". Also, even if I change URLs while under any of these 2 domains in that "broken" tab, I keep getting a blocked page. Changing to another domain, for example, google.com works. For example, If I change from https://translate.google.com to: - https://twitter.com gives a broken page - https://twitter.com/firefox gives a broken page - https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=Hello%20word&op=translate gives a broken page - https://support.mozilla.org works

However, if I just go to the url bar and tap "Alt" + "Enter", the page successfully opens in a new tab.

I'm using Firefox on Mac.

Every single time I load F/F (especially for the first time) it takes So long to start When its started and I click on (example) on a desktop shortcut it takes so long to load After about 5 mins of going slow (like warming up) it then starts to go normal speed. I have tried all suggestions on googles...still the same Start FF ...goes so slow, and gets faster as the minutes go by

hello there i have the following problem the company i work for has unistalled remotely firefox from my laptop, and i do not have any way to re-install it back i have managed in some way to obtain a copy of portable firefox on the same laptop since i was not informed about this process, i have not saved my password externally and unfortunately, i was not using a firefox profile

in few words: i do not have my passwords anymore

i have seen that in such folder: C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox

there are still saved three subfolders (one of them has the last modified date as 13th Sep, meaning today), therefore i think that my profile (and all relevant passwords) are still there somewhere

i would like to understand if and how i can import the passwords from the unistalled firefox in the portable firefox: i have already tried to copy those directories in: C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\FirefoxPortable\Data\profile

but no success, passwords are not importyed. please, i need help

thanks.

I am not able to get Ebay Philippines to display correctly using Firefox. It works with Microsoft edge. I have the latest updates but to no avail. Today, when trying to reply to an email on the main Ebay site it also had the same problem. I also tried to log in to Lazada and that is also corrupted. Its getting to the point I will have to stop using Firefox. Any suggestions.
