Hello, I'm teaching German as a foreign language - both f2f and online via Zoom. Up until recently I could call up the websites I would need for the online training, turn off the computer to save power and when I started it again the next day, all the tabs from the previous session would automatically reappear when I started Firefox. But now I cannot click the option "Open previous windows and tabs". I really don't want to completely delete this program and start from scrap because I'm scared I might lose all the bookmarks I collected for my job over the years. So could you please help me fix this problem without having to resort to drastic measures? Thank you so very much, kind regards, Silke Eckelmann

Hi,

When I try to access the website www.delhaize.be with both firefox for Win10 and for Li nux I get a different result. In both cases I tried in SafeMode all Extension off

With Win10 I am able to click on the language selection (French) and go on dealing with the cookies choice and continue shopping. With FF for Linux, although I click on the language button it sticks there and it is not possible to go on.

Any idea on how to troubleshoot ?

Cheers

I have tried many recommendations to control the bookmark spacing in firefox 108.0.2. I prefer to have single spacing, which is much more convenient than the wider spacing which now exists. Although many "workarounds" exist, none work to change this problem in the latest version. Why is this problem so difficult to resolve? It worked before and I trusted that it would work again after updating from the last version where it did work. This change is very disappointing.


Thanks George

I looked through the treads below, but could not see where any rules block any changes from occurring.

When I go to a website that can push notifications, next to the url there's this animation that you can click to allow the notifications. I want to turn off this animation. This question has been asked before and the answer was: "Go to about:config and set dom.webnotifications.enabled = false". I did this, but I still have the animation. What should i do?

Now that I run Firefox 108.0.2 (20230104165113) I cannot see my amazon.com pages properly. I have not had the problem with any other site.

Rather than seeing the page as intended, there is a semi-tranparent "film" over it and many of the areas show html coding instead of the intended images.

Firefox Sync: Why aren't Shortcuts able to sync?

Hello all,

There are a number of threads on this topic asking how to sync Shortcuts from one device to another. It appears that across the board the answer is that you cannot do this (see: this, this, this, this, or this to identify just a few).

It does appear to be the case that you can copy `browser.newtabpage.pinned` from `about:config` but this cannot be transferred to iPadOS, iOS, or easily shared between Android and macOS. It also does not update long term.

There have also been requests for this feature to be added (see this) though a lot of content around this topic appears to be confused as to what to call it and is notated within other recommendations.

I am wondering if anyone from the Mozilla/Firefox team can speak as to why this setting is not available, and what would be needed to see it become possible to sync shortcuts (and ```especially``` pinned shortcuts) within Firefox Sync.

Thank you!
