A large number of developers prefer to use a vertically-oriented monitor, as it provides a more efficient way to read code. However, as demonstrated in the first screenshot, the Firefox developer tools appear cluttered and disorganized when displayed in this orientation, especially when the three-panel layout is enabled. This makes the user interface difficult to use effectively.

In the second screenshot, even with the right sidebar minimized as much as possible by default, a significant amount of screen real estate remains underutilized, resulting in a subpar user experience. The question arises as to how this issue can be resolved.

If the Firefox development team has not given sufficient attention to optimizing their developer tools for vertical monitor orientations, what is the appropriate way to request that this feature be prioritized in their development roadmap?

Expected result: The browser jumps to ancor # list-repository-teams and the article about "List repository teams" is loaded in the main focus. Actual result: The Firefox does not jump to the ancor # list-repository-teams and the article about "List repository teams" is not in the main focus. The right list menu scrolled up to the item "list repository items". The article about "List organization repositories" is still in the main focus

Hi All!

Every time I install Firefox on a computer and log in to sync, the pinned shortcuts sync happens the wrong way. So the new installation gets a collection of relatively random shortcuts for websites I visit, plus a few of the default ones (with the search option/magnifying glass feature integrated) for sites I don't really visit, then this is synced on all other computers. I have to go manually on one of the others and redo the pinned shortcuts, then this syncs everywhere.

I've had the issue for years. I work from multiple computers so the sync feature is invaluable but also extremely annoying that I have to redo a couple of dozens pinned shortcuts every time I install and sync a new Firefox. The rest of the sync works fine (bookmarks, etc.).

Am I doing something wrong or is Firefox unable to properly sync pinned shortcuts? I imagine I can migrate the profiles over all the time but the benefit of the sync feature is that it's seamless so I'd rather use that if possible.

Thank you!

A month ago I started to have problem with twitch. After 5minutes or 2 hours- random times or random tabs, if I have opened more than 1, which is always the case. Some tabs or all, again it's random will give twitch 2000 error and refresh, closing tab,etc nothing will work, except closing WHOLE browser, not just tabs and this is not guaranteed that it will work.

I'm losing my mind with closing whole browser-windows-tabs on different monitors and then re-opening all of that again when I get 2000 error and I always do get it.

Did like 50 re-installs, it's always the same. I tried to go back to older version, but Firefox always want to create new profile saying I have old version installed and I DO NOT want that, I want everything as it is right customized,etc right now.

Hello, I wanted to report this problem. So, this problem occurs all the time. If I leave the browser for like 5 mins, firefox couldn't load a new page/change to another webpage. I'd have to wait for firefox to fail load (until a error page come up or until the loading icon dissappear) then i could load a new page. It's kinda annoying tho.

I'd be glad to see a response.

Regards Thanks

I had Firefox account, which is used to community translation contribution (not bookmark, password or other data) and last month I lost my 2FA app and now without 2FA for this account, so try to use 'backup authentication code' method. - Used 'backup authentication code', which I had 8 of 10 letters/digits code generated (on 16 May 2019 and only email), it is not working - I am able to change the password, but still asking 6 digit code, which I don't have - I have secondary email, but can't be used to login as per documentation.

I have two questions - Why 'backup authentication code' is not working? how to verify if backup method is working or not when it needed? - Can I request to delete my account to create again as I have secondary email as I can verify identity and ownership of that account with secondary email?

Hi,

Having this issue for weeks now, I finally decided to create a ticket. I currently use Firefox Developer Edition, but it has some problem: At random times, a background process starts and begins to use an absurd amount of CPU. I have a really good CPU and this issue still occurs when I start my laptop without even unlocking it yet.

I'm thinking it has something to do with an update service, but I already tried disabling automatic updates and updated to the last version. I even deleted all add-ons, but it didn't help at all.

There is a strange folder in the installation folder named "tobedeleted", which gets automatically created. I don't think it is some virus because viruses would've aimed for Firefox and not the Developer Edition, which is a completely separate install. I didn't have this problem about 2 versions of Developer Edition earlier so I don't think it's my system config or antivirus/firewall.

The issue is very strange and annoying, I've tried reinstalling, deleting and removing leftover folders on the whole disk but the issue still persists. I even did a Firefox Refresh multiple times, but nothing seems to work.

I would be very thankful if this problem gets solved and I'd love to help you guys analyze the situation because I really like the Developer Edition. I have a lot of experience with programming and computers in general so I could do some debugging.

Thanks in advance!

Greetings,

Rein (rdeboer2004@gmail.com)

For some reason today I started having issues with thumbnails not loading for youtube videos. I logged out of my google account and went to log back in, but whenever I try to login to my google account now I get a 400 error. I can login fine on other browsers and other devices. I have tried the following troubleshooting steps:

cleared all cache and cookies flushed DNS created a new firefox profile in about:profiles and set it as default Re-installed firefox multiple times refreshed firefox used Revo Uninstaller to fully remove all traces from firefox and reinstalled Manually removed all traces of firefox from appdata and program folder and installed the beta version Ran windows updates and rebooted ran an SFC scan Ran a DISM online restorehealth

Every single time I get the same result, 400 error when trying to log into my google account. Starting to feel like I'm loosing my mind here. Any troubleshooting ideas would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Getting 2 error messages:

This page isn't available right now This may be because of a technical error that we're working to get fixed. Try reloading this page. [button]Reload Page

Your Request Couldn't be Processed There was a problem with this request. We're working on getting it fixed as soon as we can. [button]OK

The second message happens sporadically when I click on Notifications. I can't do anything but quit FireFox and try again sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and I have to wait a while, sometimes as long as a day to get it working again. The first message occurs when clicking on a link. After which I get the second message.

This is extremely frustrating because of the randomness I think it is a FaceBook issue but have gotten no response from them. I'm trying to cover all the bases by asking the FireFox community if anyone has run into this and if there is a solution.

Many THANKS,

We have Firefox rapid-release (not ESR) deployed on Windows 10 across our Enterprise where users do not have local Administrator privileges.

Occasionally the rapid-release updates fail to be installed, with the updater requiring Admin privileges to execute. For example, today a user's Firefox 111.0.1 was asking for elevate to update to 112.0.

The IT team user accounts also are non-admin, but we have not run into this, and judging from the lack of support tickets on this I would say most of our users are not running into this either.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid this, or troubleshoot further?

hello guys I need help with this problem in firefox developed edition

Specifically, when I use the Inspector panel to inspect elements on a webpage, the selected elements are outlined with a blue border instead of being filled with color. This is making it difficult for me to visualize the layout and styling of the elements, and I would prefer to have them filled with color instead.

I have tried to find a solution on my own by searching online, but have not been able to find a clear answer. Could you please advise me on how to change the settings in Firefox Developer Edition so that the Inspector panel highlights elements with a fill color instead of just an outline?
