Firefox-Hilfeforum

Hi. I use Firefox for years and with the actual problems searching for a replacement did not find another browser, that I myself would consider as equivalent (in first place concerning privacy and ad-free browsing). The problems started with version 83 or 84 and there has nothing changed since. As I have no own Internet connection, I use to store the webpages on my disk to view them later offline. However, in lots more than 50% (probably over 75%) of save trials, Firefox fails! What I try to do is "Save As" and then selecting "as webpage, complete". In the "Downloads" tab, the page appears with the word "Failed" (instead of "Completed" + file size) below the filename. As I really need this feature, I actually use Google Chrome, that saves the pages properly. But, as I said, I'm not willing to give up the browser I trust and that I consider being simply the best. Thanks for any suggestions.

For anyone who wishes to reduce horizontal spacing between bookmark icons in the horizontal Bookmarks Toolbar across the top of Firefox window (under the address bar), here is the code to add to userChrome.css:

/* Bookmarks Toolbar icon horizontal spacing */

toolbarbutton.bookmark-item:not(.subviewbutton) {

   padding: var(--bookmark-block-padding) 3px !important;

}

The default value is 4px. I changed it to 3px. You can change this number as you like.

Remember to save the css file, close and then re-open the browser to view the update.

There is also a way to play with this live if you access the Browser Toolbox: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Browser_Toolbox and access userChrome.css: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Style_Editor

Hope this saves someone the hours I spent finding this solution. Cheers!

WHY DOES NOT COME TRU THE FIRE FOX IN MY LAPTOP....?

I left my PC for a looong time (more than a month). Came back, booted Windows and started FF - and only one window reopened, despite when I closed it there was two. And "recent windows" in "history" - grayed out.

A small remark - I use my FF in weirdly advanced mode, I have many tab groups (through addon), and two windows - one with long-run tabs I need, another with temporary ones, which I lost now. There was some important sites/history. How can I restore it back?

(and what has happened to the forum? Why Mozilla buried it's community in such an awful way so it's sooo hard to find? 0_0)

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I have spent going on 4 hours trying to sign in to Firefox. First, I was supposed to use a different account then I had to change my password but a red rectangle said something about parameters and I had to change my password again only now I cannot because when I press the blue rectangle it takes me back to the red rectangle and I can't get to where I can change passwords. I'm an Attorney doing Litigation consulting and the Dept. Of Justice wanted my work today. 6

How can i hide my display/screen resolution from websites? I use Firefox in windowed mode not with my default screen size but websites know my default resolution. This can be used to identify my pc. I dont want that for privacy reasons like tracking and adverstising. How can i prevent this? I found many threads/posts about this in various forums/websites. They are talking about Tor Browser and that websites can identify you if using full-screen mode. But as i said, im using Firefox not Tor and while im using windowed-mode websites still know my default resoltion. I tested this on https://whoer.net/

Another question, how can i restore the default window size in Firefox?

I downloaded newest version of Firefox and didn't realize it would work on my computer (IMac) OS X El Capitan 10.11.6. I read that version 78 is the most current one that will work. How do I download that?

Hello, I am trying to add searx as my default search engine. Searx runs on port 8080 on my localhost therefore it's url is https://localhost:8080. I can successfully visit this url and use searx; however when I add searx using the green button to my search engine list, it strips the port resulting in an error when searching. This is very frustrating with no ability to change this setting as far as I can tell. Is there any work around for this issue?
