Forum der Gemeinschaft Firefox

How can I block the google account sign in dialog box on weather.com. I can't close it or get rid of it. It permanently obscures part of the screen. I use Windows 11 and the most current version of Firefox. This problem began within the last few months.

its one request i want to ask, can you add WhatsApp Web Plus into Firefox plugins/addons?

or maybe the question is, how to add the extension that exists on chromium based browser to firefox based?

thanks

Hello, Mozilla. I really appreciate the way you think about internet access. What you stated about the app is truly reflected within it: fast connections, accurate results, and most importantly, the security. However, when it comes to advertisements, I was really expecting that whenever I watch YouTube contents, there will be no ads shown. To my surprise, ads are still there. I provided a snapshot of my desktop to give a proof about this. Is there somehow a way to get rid of them, like perhaps an extension to block ads? If there's none, that's fine as well. Thank you and high praise to the developers of this browser.

When I put my PC to sleep, my add-ons disappear and stop showing up, and I get automatically logged out of sites I was logged into. After that, a message appeared saying that Tab Session Manager was corrupted. When I tried to repair it, all 200 or so tabs I had saved previously disappeared. How can I fix this? I’m really stuck.

I am 82 years of age and did not grow up with the Internet. I have a total of only 8 hours of training on a PC. I have no idea how my PC got into 'safe mode' and now all of my extensions are disabled. I do not know how to exit 'safe mode' to allow the extensions to be enabled again. I tried following the instructions as provided, but to no avail.

I installed the 4 choice AI system and used it once and was impressed. At that very same site I wanted to highlite copy and paste but when I did the highlight was so faint as to be almost invisable . After some attempts and not wanting to lose that feature I deleted the AI via mouse right click. Realizing that was not the problem I have searched several times but cannot get any further thru settings and more tools to try to Reinstall that feature . Also the sparkle button never showed with the fisrt install. It originally appeared of its own accord . Will I get the choice again when I reboot .. ? hope you can help me thanks mike

I seem to have been using Firefox for so long, that I’ve forgotten some of the basics. I have two Apple systems. An M1, 2020 MacBook Pro and an Intel Mac Mini. Due to issues with the MacBook Pro I needed to reformat it and am slowly adding all my applications. When I added Firefox, logged in and entered the confirmation code and synced my settings none of my extensions appeared in the menu bar (please see the screenshot as to how they appear on the Mac Mini). So the question I have is what do I need to do to get them there on the MacBook Pro.

If I use extension 'Block Site' (shows up as a stop-sign shaped icon with a 'W' on it) to block a site, when I try to unblock it, it fails, with the below message:

"This operation cannot be performed in incognito mode. Please open the page in a regular browsing window and try again."

I am just clicking on the (whichever) site, from a search - not opening a private window... This extension used to work fine.

I did install DuckDuckGo browser, but removed it, as it was more trouble than it was worth. I would have to reboot my PC after each use before FireFox would connect.

hi, I have a bit of an issue, which I'll try to explain my situation first. Thing is, I mainly use ethernet (because I need to), but a tiny piece of my laptop's casing fell off, so now the ethernet cable isn't fixed, and easily disconnects from small movements. It rarely happens, I mostly avoid it, but not always. I could be using wi-fi, but that has it's own random disconnect issues (which I'll probably try to fix in the future, but that's not what this question is about)

my question is, if the disconnection happens in the middle of extension updates (they have auto updates enabled), will that break the update/the extension itself? Do I need to worry about that? Or will it cancel and fully restart the update? Does it make sure that everything stays not broken, in situations like that?

it would be great to know this about browsers in general (since I occasionally use some others), but I understand this is a Firefox forum, so I don't demand answers for that.

Why are you trying to chase people away, after update i had to reinstall it cause nothing functioned right, now I have to jump through hoops just to install ad Guard. It should not be this difficult to use a website. I think I will move over to chrome where they actually try to make life easier and not more difficult
