So i make page smaller at 60% size, and when i scroll it move on the same amount of space as its on 100% size, basically decrease scroll speed. Is there a way to make it not happen and make scroll speed the same at any page size.

Almost every Firefox update for the last year has deleted my container tabs.

More recently, while reconstructing my containers for several Google accounts, I pin them as I create each tab. Next time I restart Firefox the pinned containers are there but blank when opened and new unpinned tabs appear for the same containers.

On my mac I have the f14 key mapped to start a screen saver, but whenever I'm using firefox it appears to take control of the f14 key and prevents the use of my screen saver shortcut. Whenever I select another program that isn't firefox, my shortcut immediately works again, so I know firefox is the problem. Is there anyway to prevent firefox from using the f14 key?

I tried changing my IP address with a free IP address in Network Settings but that didn't work (because I searched my address online and it didn't change) so I added Firefox "Hide my IP" extension and that didn't work, either. I went to a few websites and I got popups telling me I needed to hide my IP address. How can I change my IP address without paying for a VPN?

Hi,

This appears to be an ongoing issue with several community support pages now archived, but the problem still persists. This is after applying cor-el's workaround in https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1413716.

OS: MacOS 14.2.1 FF: 122.0

As suggested in the related instructions, I tried with both ^ (just the first datestamp shown consistenly) & * (datestamp appears shortly in first post, then disappears very quickly <1sec), with results shown respectiively.

Is this a Mozilla issue or FB trying to be funny...? If the former can we have a bug ref that can be followed. All I see from the community posts are questions being archived once the cor-el workaround has been added. This isnt a lot of use for those still effected...

I wish to re-install my Old Firefox Data to my restored Win 10 computer Firefox browser bookmarks. There was no link given to migrate this info held in our MS OneDrive folder (as listed on the Desktop).

Last year in February MS crashed my Chrome browser. I could not re-install that, but could download and install Firefox. Now the MS auto updates began to trashed our Internet Win 10 system in late December. Everyone is being herded into the train's automobile cars haulers so they can back us into a lake...

Hey,

I'm looking for a shortcut/hotkey to focus the page.

The best I found is "Move to Next Frame", which is F6. When having the URL bar as focus, and no bookmark bar open, this will focus the page.

I have two questions here: - Is there a better way to focus the page? - If not, how can I remap F6 to a more usable hotkey?

I have found some threads with workaround like tabbing 2-3 times until the page is in focus. I'm looking for a single shortcut, having to press a key multiple times kinda defeats the purpose of a shortcut.

I have found information on how to remap hotkeys with either extensions or autoconfig, but I can't find which key I have to change. Extensions don't seem to include this key.

For autoconfig, I looked through view-source:chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml and the Browser Toolbox to find this shortcut, but with no success. Maybe I looked at the wrong spot, maybe not all shortcuts are listed there?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I use ZIMBRA mail through FIREFOX... I still can not manage HTML messages. I can display them but can't answer or transfer them ... Tell me the proper settings, please !

I am trying to add a new email address to my account so I can change the original one because it has been compromised. When i put in the new email I'm told there's "account already exists" I have no awareness of this account and can't find any reference to it in my paperwork. The new email address I want to change to is safe and secure. If in the past I did get a firefox account using the disputed email, How do I go about finding it? I'm using version 121.0.1

authentication required window popups. And do not close with "cancel" or Esq.

The story: I've used proxy but subscription expired, so i do not have working credentials, but I cant change settings cause "authentication required" - blocks everything . how the fuck i turn it off?! options\settings is fucking locked by this pop up.

so for bad english... but have no other words for "this design" to lock everything after proxy pop up.

I can use my nOptimum email account on all of my computers except this one till a few days ago. You have blocked something on this one mcomputer and I have tried, clearing, data, cache, memory, etc every trick i know, cancelled Optimum and will have to redo...can't make Optimum work. Please help me straighten this out as I need this email for my business.

At first it was encryption stuff, not it is outright blocked...perfectly fine on my phone btw,

Recently, whenever I try to login to a website, firefox is suggesting an email that has never been used on this device/account and I don't even know who's email it is. How do I clear this from the memory as it is quite inconvenient.

SHORT STORY:

I have been able to find extension behind errors shown in dev. console (F12 key) like CSP ones (mouse hover over the link near the error on dev. console (F12 key), Console tab, to see moz-extension://somestring and find first characters of the string at page about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox) But is there any better/easier way to find out web page issue causing extension?

LONG STORY:

Website fails to load (but in a Private window loads OK). F12 key in normal window, Console tab, shows:

SyntaxError: redeclaration of let settings

clicking it, it further show:

abc123-def456-...-...-....:1:1

   <anonymous> blob:moz-extension://8834...

inject resource://gre/modules/ExtensionContent.sys.mjs:581

   AsyncFunctionNext self-hosted:852

when i search for mentioned 8834 (first letters of a long string) at about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox (i get there clicking settings wheel at about:addons and "Debug addons".) then i find Chameleon extension.

So I try to pause extension in its menu, that not helped, but disabling whole extension in about:addons removed errors, yet page still does not load. 4 remaining CSP errors like:

Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource at inline (“script-src”). contentScript.js:160:48951 ...

when I mouse hover over the hyperlink "contentScript.js:160:48951" the browser status bar shows extension address and when i memorize first letters of the address and search it at mentioned about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox tab, i find: Phantom (cryptocurrency wallet) Metamask (cryptocurrency wallet) Phantom (cryptocurrency wallet) Violentmonkey (provides userscripts support for browsers - I am using it only for https://github.com/Owyn/HandyImage which is disabled currently)

I have tried to didable all these extensions causing removal of a CSP errors, yet page still does not load in normal browsing window (in private does). Normal browsing window shows only one warning/error:

Source map error: Error: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource. https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/debugger/source_map_errors/ Resource URL: moz-extension://extension address here/browser-polyfill.min.js Source Map URL: browser-polyfill.min.js.map

when i search for the extension address first letters at mentioned page about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox i find "Textarea Cache", disabling it does not make page load.

After re-enabling disabled extensions and restarting Firefox, page started loading. I suspect (likely wrong) that the python application which is serving local web page in question had exhausted connection limit for the normal browser window/process, but the private browser window process was OK.

What i can do better to discover the causing extension or other cause of failed loading page?

Hi, I have been quite satisfied with Firefox for a while, but these problems are ruining the experience for me. 1. The tabs keep refreshing when I switch apps or even when I stay on the browser, just by changing tabs and leaving it open within the session. I usually open a lot of tabs, and this has nothing to do with the inactive ones. 2. I used to be able to play YouTube videos in the background or with my screen off on the Firefox browser on my Android phone without problem. But now the audio keeps pausing and doesn't continue to load, even closes itself after a few seconds of loading. Nothing i've done, including downloading the video playback fix addon, clearing cache, restarting phone and turning off and on data saving mode/background data permission, has fixed this problem.
