In Firefox for PC you can add a search item to the address item in the toolbar.

This is necessary for adding a search engine using the Search Engine Search Tool from Mycroft Project (former Mozilla Mycroft Project: https://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.php )

When you have selected a search engine for being added to the search engfine list you can use the down arrow in the search item for selecting the new search engine for being added.

Using Mycroft Project for adding search engines is a genuinely better and more effective way of searching and adding search engines than the manual method in the settings/search/alternative search engines/add search engine menu. On PC i have been using it for years.

Doing so is not possible using the address item because the down arrow is not there anymore when you have chosen a location, Therefore the additional search item is necessary.

Unfortunately the toolbar cannot be customized on android like on a PC. And i have found no other way to add a search item to the toolbar or in a second line of the toolbar.

PS: I have also tried to execute the HTML code for adding a search engine from Mycroft Project.

      The source code was displaied on the Firefox screen but it had no effect on the search engine list.
      No error message or sucess message was displaied.

Edited on Firefox on PC: 153.0 (64-bit)

Change request is for Firefox AS: 152-.0.1 OS: Android 16

Firefox print dialog shows "Printer not available" even though Windows detects my Brother DCP-T720DW

I recently started to have a printing problem in Firefox on Windows 11. My Brother DCP-T720DW works fine with other applications like Word and Notepad, but when I try to print from Firefox, sometimes I get a "Printer not available" message or the print dialog incorrectly shows the printer. For troubleshooting, I uninstalled and then reinstalled the printer driver following the official Brother download page: https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadtop.aspx?c=us_ot&lang=en&prod=dcpt720dw_all Since that didn't fix the issue, I also downloaded and reinstalled the driver from: https://printerdrivers.com/brother-dcp-t720dw-driver/ Windows detects the printer and is able to print test pages, so it looks like the problem is only with Firefox. Here are the things I have tried: Restarting both Firefox and Windows Uninstalling and reinstalling the printer Resetting Firefox settings Running Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode Making Brother printer the default one

Has anyone else had the same issue in which Firefox refuses to detect a printer that works correctly in other applications? Is there a print setting or preference in Firefox that might cause this? Thanks in advance for any advice.

I have ended up with five different calendars. They all have different names--probably because I really don't understand how Thunderbird organizes things in regard to the rest of the internet. Several people in our household share calendars, to keep track of events, tasks due, and medications.

So how do I consolidate all the entries in all of these calendars? I have tried syncing, but that doesn't seem to work. How can I know that when I enter a soccer schedule on (one of) my calendars, it will end up on the calendar that my wife uses to print out our family weekly schedule?

Cannot access some websites since Win11 updated to 25H2

Evil Corp (aka Microsoft) updated my Windows 11 PC from 24H2 to 25H2 and now I cannot access quite a few websites (i.e. Amazon, Bank!, etc.) and some take a long time to load (surprisingly, my Firefox Home page...Google...also takes a while to load) . I searched the internet and found many so called fixes and most are very complicated and many contradict others. A lot of them say to disable DNS and reset network stack (using the command prompt) which I do not know how to do even though I worked in the tech business for 40 yrs (mainly data networking)...I retired 20 yrs ago...so I'm old...so I'm not as savvy with computers as I used to be. I tried changing a few Firefox settings, but nothing worked, so I changed them back to the original settings that worked before the update. If someone could give me detailed (and hopefully simple) instructions to resolve this issue, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm am in a bind, so a timely response would be great. Thanks so much, Steve

Trying to download updates from Intel.com and as soon as I click the download button, Firefox just locks up and won't allow me to do anything. I have to basically shut down firfox through task manager to get the browser to work again. I have 139.04 which is the latest update for Firefox

A message to Mozilla if this is a bug how about fixing the problems that some people are having instead of consintration on implementing AI into Firefox as I want a browser that doesn't and isn't link to AI as many other people do as well as some if not most of us are sick to ther back teeth with everything having AI installed with in the programs.

This is my home computer and is not being managed by any organization. When I click for more information, it gives me a screen with the following information:

If I could get more information on this suspected error, or how to correct it, that would be great. Thanks!

Running FF V140 on Windows 11, "naming" a window has disappeared & no "Restore Previous Session" in menu

In early June 2025 I finally ditched Windows 10 for 11 and I've been a Firefox user since practically the very beginning of Mozilla.

Now, I notice that the "Restore Previous Session" button in the drop-down of the FF menu is missing. Additionally, I discovered late in the game that Mozilla DID listen to me and gave us the ability to "name" or "tag" an entire window in the browser. This was a HUGE boon to productivity as I'm constantly toggling from window to window to tab to tab.... Now, with the most recent update this ability seems to have disappeared....

Hey all, I'm hoping someone can help me. I have found no answers online to date.

I cannot print from the Firefox browser. When I click the print button, my printer spits out a blank page.

I can print from any other browser, Word, Excel, PDF files, anything except for Firefox. This may not be as much of an issue if Firefox wasn't my primary browser, so when I start doing work on it and find I need to print something at the end, it's a problem.

My printer software is up-to-date, I tried resetting the printing preference to default (assuming I did this correctly), and I even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox (which was a disaster). None of this helped.

Is there one of you who may be able to provide me with the help I need?

I appreciate your effort greatly.

Using Firefox on Windows 11 I cannot access DocuSign files. I need to send a form to an on-line bank and want to use the DocuSign function. When I click on that option on the site all that displays on the screen is DOCUSIGN but the feature doesn't show. I tried turning off security addons such as Privacy Badger and Ghostery but that didn't help. I can get to the feature using Edge but I really don't like using that. Is there a setting that I've missed that may cause the disconnect?

The generic DocuSign site it https://powerforms.docusign.net/. Any other details in the URL I used refer to my bank and the account, so I am not including that information.

Thank you.
