I've used Roboform addon before. Recently i had to reinstall win 11, and therefore reinstall Firefox, plus Roboform addon. Mozilla shows addon has installed, but it is not operating like i am used to. it will not auto load username/password automatically. I've checked several times, reloaded, and still can't find why it is not working. this includes going to Add-ons manager page in Mozilla, where it says Roboform password manager enabled. doesnt seem to be working to me. see attached screen shot any suggestions most welcome.

Hello 1) How can I stop Google pop-ups? Each time I open a homepage that requires a log-in, a Google pop-up is disturbing and presses me to log-in via Google. This is harassment. I do not want to be harassed. 2) Firefox support: Each time I would like to get an answer, that is what I want, when I ask for support, I have do a lot of work until I get the bottom to contact you. Time is money, for me too. Where is the direct button to ask? 3) When I got an answer from you, is there a way I can store my questions and your answers? Asking and getting an answer by E-mail would be a good solution, but as I learned e-mail is not allowed to contact you. Kind regards, Ernst Kupfer.

Hi,

I am the developer of the Dictionary Anywhere extension which is a Firefox recommended extension. Recently my extension stopped performing up to its expectations due to backend changes in public API that it uses to find meaning of the words.

However, I am unable to modify the code of extension to fix the issue as I am not able to login to my account due to it being behind MFA, and I have lost access to the phone which contains those MFA codes.

Can something be done here, to allow me to update the extension to rectify the issue that 50k users who use this extension regularly are facing? For example, can the extension be transferred to another account through which it can be updated, lots of users are suffering as the extension is not working. I have access to the source code of the extension .

Thanks and Regards

I did not knowingly install an ad blocker on Firefox, but clearly I have one, because several sites I visit ask me to disable it. When I try to do so, I'm presented with a long list of ad blockers, and am asked to choose mine and disable it. How do I find out what my ad blocker is? I've tried to find this on Firefox, with no success. I hope someone can walk me through this.

Thanks, Janet Shapiro

I just added Search on Google Lens to my Firefox "Add-ons Extensions" because I need to identify a simple image, but I can't figure out how to make it work. I put my mouse pointer on te image and right click, but I do not get a context menu with a Google Lens choice. What do I need to do to make Google Lens work on my computer?

I FEEL LIKE A TOTAL IDIOT WHEN USING Firefox Browser. It is the only browser I use and I have been using Firefox for 10+ years. I've spent thousands of hours using it but due to my GREAT IGNORANCE of the best way to use and maximize my efficiency, my precious time is being wasted. I FEEL LOST MUCH OF THE TIME. IS IT POSSIBLE ORGANIZED MY USE OF FIREFOX IN A WAY THAT WILL MAKE IT A PLEASURE TO USE? For example my Windows fire Explorer if very organized and based on a logical system that I created. With Firefox I've created hundreds Bookmarks and I've started organized them but it doesn't automatically sort a folders or bookmarks when I put them in and that is a huge inconvenience because I sometimes forget to do that and then I can't find what I need.

I've built computers and installed hardware and complicated software; I've done a little bit of Excel programing as well. I am a well educated person with a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry, and I also have several post graduate certifications but I feel like Firefox is cumbersome to use. Now that "feeling" has to do with my ignorance most likely SO is there anyone out there who can point this frustrated researcher in the direction that will make me a virtuoso with Firefox? With all the very smart people who invented and maintain Firefox, someone must have created a Firefox course to turn a Firefox user who can get a hundred times more done in a fraction of the time it is currently taking me.

Here's a good example of the kind of things I need: 1. First, let me convey just a brief context of my endeavors, and then I'll submit a some ways in which my Firefox browser could much more helpful. I do a lot of teaching in several technical areas of science (physics, mathematics, chemistry, financial management an investments, predictive models for targeting future needs vs resources for individual and group advancements, and with unique considerations for cultures/philosophical diversities, the role of pattern recognition in cognitive architecture and in subjective/objective conscious states of alertness paradigms; medical science, philosophy, learning theory and methods, I also teach music theory and composition related to the guitar, violin, and piano. One of the reasons that I like Firefox is it's Privacy protection, but I'm confident that if I were more "edumacated" about the complex subject of privacy I would like "accessorize" my interaction with a world that has plenty of "bad actors out there". Consider this fact: I am a skilled surgeon whose quick hands and mind have been involved involved in multiple acute life threatening injuries. This means that I use a kind of magical thinking that I learned long ago, and that thinking is the difference between life and death for the man whose left renal artery was ruptured in a plane crash. He is losing blood internally and must be treated immediately, He will arrive at trauma center in 10-15 minutes vial helicopter. I am already scrubbed in and ready for his arrival as is my very experienced surgical assistant who has prepared all the surgical instruments organized in the sterile surgical room. Firefox must be like my surgical assistant. Every tool I need for research, for probative accumulation of essential information must be readily, available, so I can focus of the important task of stopping the blood loss quickly. That surgery was done and that 26 year old male survived after I repaired the ruptured left renal artery using endovascular repair via a surgical Goretex stint graft similar to what I have used in repair of aortic aneurysms. Simple when one has the tools at ones fingertips due to well trained support staff. When I am about to write a highly important article or chapter that I will contribute to a book that has several other contributing authors, There are certain tools I need and that depends on whether I'm writing in English, Russian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, or Italian. I will need the following tabs: # 1. [Merriam-Webster's Unabridged Dictionary|https://unabridged.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/intend]

1. 2. Forvo, world's largest pronunciation dictionary # 3. Thesaurus.com So, the foregoing is an example three tabs I would like to be opened when I am going to start an article. When I am teaching and writing music there is select number of 5-7 tabs, depending on which instrument I am working with, that I would like to open with one or two clicks. Similarly, when I do financial or medical research. For example I could in my Bookmarks create project related folders with the specific tabs I would like to have open, the question would be is there a way I can open 5-10 links in a folder, with a minimal of clicking? I'm sure there are other smarter ways to work but I don't know Firefox well enough to know how to shape it around my specialty needs. If anyone read this "Call for assistance" and feels interested in helping me become skilled wit fitting Firefox to my way of working, let me know. My email is mwmaddox@mail.com. Thanks!

I stick with Firefox because it is apparently one of the safest browsers. I have installed a few Add-ons and Themes, like "Tree Style Tab" and "Go To Playing Tab" both of which I like. I'm still trying to figure out how to have Google Lens work on my Firefox. I read all the instructions but nothing seems to work. Is it me or is it a problem with Firefox browser, or what?

No extension is being added in the mozilla browser. It just gets stuck at the download step, and processing keeps happening at the same point. Can you guide me on what the issue might be and how i can resolve this issue? Or is this browser just bad, and I should switch to another one?

I have Dark Reader installed and it works perfectly almost anywhere, but ironically, Firefox' support forum itself comes out all white regardless if it's on or off?

I'm on OpenSuse Leap 15.6 with KDE Plasma 5.27.11.

Whay have extensions stopped workong with latest Firefox update. E.g. Last pass is listed as an installed extension but clicking in the installed list just gives a settings page, and there is no button to enable pinning to the top bar, so I can't access Lastpass at all in this way. Have updated Firefox to 134.0.2 and reinstalled the Last Pass extension but no change. Previously I have been able to pin Lastpass extension to the top bar next to the Download icon. Other icon that do work: Pocket, Download, Account, Noscript, Duckduckgo search, ABP and jigsaw piece. When will this get fixed pleased?
