Hello there,

During my quest of trying to get macOS and apps to look more like I want, I haven't found any answer online on how to modify the rounding of Firefox corners to be square. I have also heard that Firefox has a known bug of not respecting system appearance, so I have decided not to mess around with important system files. So my question is: What would be your recommended way to square the window corners for macOS?

PC has been reset back to windows 10. How to set up bookmark bar ? Before was easy to show up (bookmark) or hide it. Now the page going itself , can NOT put back bookmark bar, can't find any point to show up bookmark bar with 700 + saved site address. Thank You for help.

When I restarted my computer today, Firefox asked me if I wanted to try moving items on the top to a sidebar. I agreed to try it and don't like it but I can't figure out how to get rid of the sidebar. Please help.

Hi. I'm trying to switch from chrome to firefox, and I see this strange, thick gray border/padding around the content of every page I view in the browser.

It's perfectly consistent between tabs and not part of the actual web pages. It grows and shrinks as I resize the window. It makes everything a bit smaller than it is in chrome.

I haven't been able to search and discover what it is/a solution, because the terms I try to search for produce different topics. What is this? Is there a setting I can change to turn it off?

How do I change the height dimension of my toolbars?

My toolbars are too wide in height, taking up 1/3 - 1/2 of my screen, and the pop-ups narrow my screen in height to where I can only read one or two lines of text at a time. (I am sure that using larger fonts is part of the problem. But my old eyes prefer a font size of 14 and above.)

Hello,

I have been experiencing this issue for a while, but only just now noticed it. When I hover over a tab, nothing shows up; no preview, no title, no web address, nothing. I have a few extensions, but uninstalled any that would effect tabs at all, with no change. All other extensions I have had since I switched over to Firefox. I have attempted to search for solutions, and have followed what I found. Multiple support questions here have gotten the answer of going into the config to change the following Boolean variables to be true:

   browser.tabs.hoverPreview.enabled 
   browser.tabs.hoverPreview.showThumbnails 

but when I went to do so, they were both already set to true. I disabled and then re-enabled them just to check, but nothing changed. I have a ridiculous amount of tabs open, but that's the only other thing I can think of that would be causing this issue. Just in case, I am in the process of closing as many as I can.

Any advice or assistance would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi all, I've looked high and low for this, but can't find it... I have a couple of laptops and a desktop - one of the laptops has started showing a sidebar with buttons. I really like the utility of it and want to do same on second laptop and desktop, but all the settings I've tried just give me the old style of bookmarks. The version I want has a side pane with curved corners, and several buttons remain along left, almost like a left hand side menu bar. But where's the on/off button to add it to my other machines? All using latest version, and all logged in as me - I don't understand why, if its an update, it hasn't done so to all computers?

My firefox automatically updated on January 14th. Since the update, it opens with the tool bar above/off the screen, the left side off the screen, and it doesn't allow me to scroll. If I go the the firefox icon at the bottom of the screen and click close window, I can sometimes get it to re-open normally and then leave it open for the balance of the day. I am running windows 11. My wife and I are have the same issue right after the update. Is there a fix on the way or a setting I can change to fix this.

Not as important but I want to get away from all things google. Right now my firefox is tied to a gmail account. To be void of google, do I need to completely take firefox off my computer and re-install with a new email account or can I transfer the account to a new email?

Appreciate your time Thanks so much for your help.

The search bar covers the bookmarks bar when hovering over the top on Mac. It needs to be so both the search bar and bookmarks bar move down when you hover over the main menu settings in Mac.
