This question was answered elsewhere but I can't make any of the suggested solutions work for me. The cursor jumping from search to address bar started happening yesterday (June 4, 2021) for no reason that I can tell - nothing's changed in my settings, unless it updated without me knowing. It's driving me crazy; if I type into the address bar, it's because I know where I want to go. And what's the point of even having a separate search bar if the cursor's going to automatically jump to the address bar? I'd like my address bar and search bar to be entirely separate, like they were before. Thanks so much for any help - I just switched back to Firefox and now I'm remembering why I switched to Chrome in the first place... I don't have time to constantly try to get my browser back to its 'normal' functionality. But I do love many of FF's features so I hope this can be easily fixed :)

I'm hoping to bring my Chrome favorites over to Firefox and use the easily. When I was using Chrome there was a problem with duplicate favorites and I think I have 3 sets of duplicate favorites. I asked about this online and I was told that by using switching to Firefox and then importing my favorites from Chrome would eliminate the duplicates. When I first brought them over they were put in my bookmark toolbar. I think I did this but what a mess. Is it better to take my Chrome bookmarks into a separate file where I can pick and choose the duplicate bookmarks and then bring them over to Firefox? Of course I don't know how you do that and I'm just not computer savvy. Thank you for your time and any help or advice you can give me. I'm just frustrated so thanks for your help.

Sincerely, Rob

Saying I do not like the lack of lines separating the tabs is an understatement. I don't know why but it is driving me nuts and triggering my anxiety and I'm not someone that would normally say stuff like that but it is.

Is there a way to make the tabs look like they used to with clear black lines between each tab?!?

I have instagram on my pc I can view others pictures and videos but i do not know how to do it from my firefox browser on my windows 10 pc. I am not really good at computer stuff so i do not wanty to mess this up . can some one tell me how Thanks

Help, how can I go BACK to the last version of Firefox?? I HATE Version 89. Not only do the new tabs all blend in with each other because they're all the same color, but they're placed lower in the screen and add a strip of unused dead space along the top of screen, which means the content I want to see is all pushed down into a smaller, squished space. Arg - already getting high blood pressure trying to navigate it!

Hello,

I've updated my Firefox to latest version (89.0) on my Windows machine, and from yesterday I'm keep having occasional freezes and artifacts. It happens when opening a tab or loading a page while also opening a Windows app. Freeze lasts for 5-10 seconds, followed with black screen and sometimes artifacts (today).

I've attached a picture along with data if you might find something useful. I disabled hardware accelaration from this point forward.

The new Firefox update awaited me this morning on my desktop Mac (OS Mojave). Unfortunately for an older person with eyesight that is not as good as it once was, the very low contrast on the tabs makes it very hard to quickly see which ones are up. I've searched but have not found any way to increase that contrast. And, one other thing, the old tabs had a very visible icon for sound (to turn it on or off in the tab). This new one is also very hard to see with less than terrific eyesight. Even just being able to make them a bit bigger would help a lot.

Thanks in advance if there is a way to restore these tabs to the previous version. And, if not, it would be really great if the awesome Firefox developers would keep in mind that some of us don't see all that well and give us some options to adjust for that.

xoxo,

Peaches

Hi, I use a PC under W7.

with FF88, the zone of the activated/unused tabs was above the screen, below the listed tabs bar (like in the snapshot).

With FF89, this zone is now empty (background in blue in the snapshot) and only the active tab appears below the window (on the right down in the snapshot for the current tab).

It makes FF simply unusable ! Need your help to come back to a normal situation : all tabs in the blue bar where they were.

thanks a lot for your help. Regards, Philippe

Hello, I would like to use the search function in the tab again. How can I adjust this? At the moment it is so that when you enter it it appears right above in the link line (see picture). I would like it to be in the search below, directly in the tab. Before version 88 this was possible. Why was it removed?

hallo, ich möchte wieder im Tab die Suchfunktion nutzen. Wie kann ich dies einstellen? Zur Zeit ist es so, daß bei einer Eingabe es gleich oben in der Linkzeile erscheint (siehe Bild) Dabei möchte ich es unten in der Suche, direkt im Tab haben. Vor Version 88 war das möglich. Warum wurde es entfernt?

Just updated to latest Version 89.0. Rebooting the PC all of Firefox's colors changed to terrible washed out colors. Reading other inquiries I tried running the extension "Firefox Colors" but it didn't help. How do I reset to original default colors? Sincerely, DDBob.

Restore the interface to be like v88. If you are not going to do that, then leave the proton choices in about:config so we can get around the most glaring problems.

again the shopping cart in aliexpress does not work. there are no addons. in pinterest, and after a while, the computer hangs up.

опять корзина в алиэкспресс не работает. никаких дополнений нет. в pinterest и вовсе через некоторое время намертво вешает комп.

As of today all of my new logins are showing up with a sign in location of 'Boardman, OR, United States'.

This is nowhere near where I live. I'm not using a VPN, and have checked my IP's location using GeopIP services. This has never happened in the past either.

Is there an issue with the service at the moment, or is something more dangerous potentially going on?

Hey all,

I upgraded firefox to 89.0 (firefox for ubuntu). When playing videos it now uses RDD process instead of Web Content. The problem however comes from the resources "RDD process" uses. It is consistently at 100% usage of a CPU core and this is causing my fans to be really loud. I fixed this by changing media.rdd-process.enabled to disabled in about:config and this fixed the system resource issue but I don't think this is what is meant to happen.

As far as I know "RDD process" is meant to use the GPU. My computer has a dedicated GPU so I am at a loss as to what is going on here. Anybody who has any idea?

Thanks in advance.
