Firefox-Hilfeforum

I keep the "Recommended by Pocket" section collapsed throughout most of the workday to prevent distractions when opening new tabs. Recently I've found the section can't be collapsed anymore. I know that I can disable Pocket on the homepage, but I don't want to do that. I still want it available for me to take breaks or when I'm finishing up with something. The collapse feature was ideal for me.

This may sound petty, but it's a real issue. I would rather stop using Pocket than let it distract me all day. I could write a bookmarklet to deal with it, but not everyone has that option.

Is there still any way to toggle this section? If not, why was this feature removed, and can this feature be brought back?

Thanks Cor-el for replying with advice on how to use about:config to ensure the screencapture was toggled correctly. It wasn't and I corrected that. Now I have the icon in the toolbar and on the right click menu but when I attempt to use them all I get is a popup menu with a large black X in it and nothing can be done with it. Also, on the toolbar items that are added to it all appear in the overflow and there is no way of getting them to appear on the screen by reducing the size of the search bar. I've been using firefox ever since it first appeared and I've never had problems like this before.

I recently ran an AVG cleanup operation. Afterwards almost all of my bookmarks no longer linked to their respective websites. I relinked the ones on my toolbar, but none of the other bookmarks are operative.

I uninstalled Mozilla VPN after poor performance. Now Firefox will not connect to the web although other browsers work (Edge). A new tab page loads but without any news, etc. I have uninstalled Firefox and reloaded it several times without effect.

When I click on a link in Thunderbird to open in Firefox, I get the following error.

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity Location: chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml Line Number 760, Column 13:

           <toolbarbutton id="UITourTooltipClose" class="close-icon"
</pre>
^
I am unable to resolve the issue. Is there a fix for this error?
Thanks in advance.

Please let me know what I should be doing other than tightening linked in which has no crucial information anyway. My e-mail will get back on e-vite because someone will send me an invitation. The other places should not have any information on me since I've never visited, don't know what they are.

I've recently updated to 92.0.1 and I've noticed that when I download a PDF attachment or file that firefox opens in a new tab rather than using the default adobe program. I've looked at settings and applications and changed to to "always ask" but I don t get any option to use adobe to open it or any other program. Also it seems to save the file in the downloads folder as a "firefox html document" and not a pdf file

I'd like to log into my facebook account but all I get is " We can’t connect to the server at www.facebook.com."

A recent update changed the spacing of links in my favorites folders. It would be great if you could include a spacing option for the user. I absolutely hate the double spacing. It's horrible.

My browser is not reacting (at all) to any website input and I can't even reach the settings page. I just see a blank page and the turning wheel is not loading or reacting. I checked the firewall. No problems there. My other browser is working fine. I reinstalled and freshened up Mozilla firefox.

Tried to reply to your email. It has not return. Here is a copy of report you requested. It is different from what you sent me.

I still have no bookmarks. I have restarted the computer a number of times. I also renamed the places.sqlite adding a 1 after places as it said in other directions. I have also refreshed.

Yesterday, I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled after receipt of your response. It said all cookies, history, bookmarks etc transferred successfully. However, I keep getting the message “ and Bookmarks and history systems will not be functional because one of Firefox’s file is in use by another application. Some security software can cause the problem. I use McAfee, I’ve always used it. I have not changed it.

I did not do anything with favicon file as I don’t know what to do, I understand you can delete that. If there is a list of more than one, then what do I do.

As I indicated, I an NOT a technical person.

Please advise.

Thanks.
