Hello I am German and not used to write in english. I use Firefox on my Xperia device. Within the last Update I got the new function to collect the tabs. I created several collections and named them. After I put in the tabs and deleted them in the list. So they were only in the collections. Today I wanted to use one Tab out of the collection. But the whole collection Was not any more there, same with 2 Others! Where are these collections and the tabs now? I did not delete them and I need them.

Where are they and how can I use them again?

Kind regards

Mischa

Whenever I download a file with firefox reality, it will disappear in about 7-9 days. I can't stop it, and the files are just straight up gone. They're not in my files, not in the downloads tab inside firefox, nowhere. Does firefox reality just automaticlly delete files after a week or so?

Ever since IE changed to tabs on top firefox coders followed like mindless automatons without any regard to/for Mozilla community and users. We are sick and tired of being ignored. We want/need tabs bellow address bar. Now, tell us how to simply get tabs below address bar or tell the coders to provide us with the option. And, we don’t care about any excuses as previously provided or outright ignored by them.

Here it is almost a year later ( I tried posting a link to the previous Mozilla support article from 11 months ago BUT it seems we can't even do that ) and the "coming back soon" answer still hasn't happened. I switched to Firefox more than two decades ago (maybe 3) because it was "by the people, for the people", because it was so much better than Internet Explorer and it was also safer. I have always preached the virtues of Firefox whenever I saw friends and relatives using something else BUT now I'm starting to wonder "is it time *I* move to something else? My question is, is the print function coming back or isn't it (OR is it time for a change)?

Hi! Does anybody know how to disable browser closing by ctrl+q shortcut? It is too close to ctrl+w and sometimes I close the whole browser instead of one tab. Moreover it is really useless and stupid feature since I have alt+f4. Why I need another shortcut which do the same stuff? And why developers ignore this issue which was reported on several forums? I tried install extension which disable it but it doesn't work for me.

Hi! so I installed Kubuntu 20.10 after using it 'directly from the cd' for some time. since, all data would be lost every time i restart, i would keep a copy of a '.mozilla' file i would find in the system. Everytime i start the OS, i would first create a folder and copy paste it, so firefox would start right where i left it off. this worked, until i decided to make Kubuntu permanent. at first things were going good, but after sometime, my OS would stop recognizing my headphones and audio port completely. at first i blamed it on my OS and went about doing somethings here and there to adjust by. but looking back, i had installed some DRM to play some video on the net. so in a desperate fix, i replaced the current .mozilla file with a backup i had. the thing worked like a charm and my audio was fixed and everything was going ok, except for the occasional fixes so that my OS would channel the audio to the right output. that is, until the problem rise again! this time, i hadn't installed anything like i did previously, so i replaced the .mozilla file again and it worked! but i can't keep doing this and i had also faced the same problem in my windows, resulting my change in OS in the first place (I think its the same issue, because whatever i did didn't fix it and windows is more sophisticated that i wouldn't know). I don't know if this much info is too much or too less or that if i should post this here or in any other forums, but i would really appreciate it if i got a solution! Thankyou!

Many of the add-ons I regularly use to enhance workflow and browsing aren't available in the Reality browser, which seems to only have a much smaller library of extensions. The extensions I want to employ don't seem like they'd be particularly difficult to implement on my device, and don't seem to pose any major security risks. So, I was wondering if the broader range of Add-ons will become available soon on the reality browser, or if there are certain hidden settings, like those available in about:config in the desktop browser or a certain developer mode that could allow access to the Add-ons. As an example of what I mean, I usually employ the Video Speed Controller Add-on, which seems as though it would be easily compatible with my VR device setup, and roughly equivalent versions are available natively on certain websites like youtube and work without buffering or other issues on my device, so I was wondering why the add-on might not be approved for the Realiy browser. Thank you for your time.

While wtching videos on the Reality browser, it usually shows an option to switch to a 3D format. This option still appears on videos that only exist in a 2D format. When I select the 3D option on a 2D video, it just splits the original screen and only shows half of it to each eye instead of creating a fullscreen stereoscopic image. I was wondering if it is supposed to work that way, and the 2D video input format is simply incompatible with that feature, or if there's a problem with my device/those specifc videos, and the feature is supposed to be able to convert any 2D input to stereoscopic 3D output, the same way some of those fairly old 3D televisions with adjustable depth settings could do. Thank you for your time.
