My menu items are now (9/7/2021) White and double-spaced. Why does FireFox change things that don't need changing with no path back. First, they changed menu color to default to another (I think same as Toolbar color) with no recourse. Now the menus are white and double spaced (today! out of the blue sky!!). FireFox, at LEAST make these features configurable. Why do you do this?

Firefox just updated a few minutes ago, and since the update my background in every website I visit is white. Previously my backgrounds were all black due to my Windows 10 "High Contrast Theme" being activated. Well since the update it seems Firefox "ignores" the Windows Theme settings and overrides them with its own. As far as I can tell, there is no way to make websites display with a black background like they did before the update. I hope this gets fixed.

A few hours ago I installed firefox on an old laptop, logged in, synced my bookmarks etc. Everything went fine except for that this laptop was having the default dark theme and it synced this theme with my main laptop. Now I can't find the theme that my main laptop was using.

I've tried: - Searching for it in about:addons - Searching for it in https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/themes/ in my personal profile

How do I find the theme I was using for my main laptop again? it was a default firefox theme which had purple/orange as the main colors.

When I watch a Youtube video the play/pause button that's normally in the bottom left corner is missing. When the video is playing my mouse disappears if it's over the video and the progress bar won't show. Youtube works fine on other browsers on this computer. My browser updated to version 92.0 today, so I'm not sure if that's what caused it. I'm using Windows 10 64 bit.

Good morning. I have been using Firefox for a long time, but yesterday this message appeared:

Redirect loop

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this resource in such a way that it cannot be completed.

    This problem may occur as a result of blocking or rejecting cookies. 

It appears only when I want to enter the name of the item on the field auction in Poland: https://allegro.pl/

There was never such a problem before. I can use this page, but I cannot enter any data. I sell a lot through it and I need it very much. I have cleared cookies for this site. It didn't do anything. The page opens normally on the other browser I used to check. I don't know what I can do to fix the problem. Please help.

PS. I attach a photo of the error. The inscriptions are in my language, i.e. in Polish.

With the latest update it appears that Firefox has disabled our ability to restore the old classic theme and UI in Firefox 89 and older using about:config, and the only alternative left is using alternative Firefox themes. Is there any theme out there that will allow me to have the white background for my bookmarks that was available in the past? I have tried TONS of themes and every single one of them has a dark bookmark background. And yes, I have also tried the ones that are supposedly able to give me the old classic look but they too have dark bookmark backgrounds. To make a long story short I can not find a single theme that has the light bookmark background and I do not know how to change the bookmark background or if the bookmark background can even be changed. All I know is the only theme with a white background is this sh***y looking theme that now comes with Firefox default settings. HELP!

How can I reduce the spacing in the bookmarks list? The last several updates keep increasing the space between the bookmarks in the dropdown and it's a real pain having to scroll down when I've never had to. It should be something that can be customize, if not, put it back the way it was.

I fairly recently started to notice that in Firefox my LinkedIn results show up as white text on a white background. I have tried to play with settings to no avail. I like Firefox and hate to have to use another browser just to use LinkedIn. Any suggestions? Thank you.

I've attached a screenshot image of a LinkedIn page showing text that's is only readable when its highlighted.

Firefox home page is fine, however when a search topic is entered the resulting page results show the searched result is overlapped by the url for each result, A complete shutdown of Firefox will clear this overlapping but after a few hours of activity the overlapping reappears.

1. Current environment: Windows 10 21H1, 19043.1202 2. I updated the Firefox from 91.0.2 to 92.0 by Mozilla Maintenance Service, but when I checked the Uninstall Panel, the former version 91.0.2 was found still there. Besides, though I can uninstall the older one, the latest version will crash due to its dependence on the previous one. 3. The former one should be completely overridden with no leftovers in Registry when it is updated. 4. The problem seems to have been recurring since version 90.0 . 5. Sincerely hope the problem can be fixed as soon as possible. 6. My thanks to the community for their contributions.

I have a desktop using Windows 7 and a laptop using Windows 10.

For some reason, a folder containing several bookmarked websites disappeared from my desktop bookmark side panel. That folder is on my laptop so all is not lost.

My question is which computer should I be at when pressing the synch button? I want the folder containing the websites to be on my desktop as well as my laptop.
