I posted a review on the iOS market and received an email asking to post on this forum.

Firefox freezes several times an hour. It crashes every three hours. I installed the Adblock Pro extension (free version). Maybe it’s related but I have not noticed anything related to the extension. Safari doesn’t crash and uses the same extension.

The only point to use Firefox on iOS is the password manager and dark mode. Printing is inferior because it forces pagination.

Moving mouse quickly and hit something, mouse clicked. BAM, fonts and picture to tiny size. Cannot find anything that makes that happen to undo it. All pages that site, no other site. Closing/opening Firefox stays the same. Zoomed to max and can now see, but page is not correct proportions.

Hi, when I log into my bank I give my account number and then a password. I have told firefox not to remember my password but it is remembering the bank account number which automatically pops up when I am on the banks log in page. How do I stop this? Also when I signed up for this firefox help it asked for an email address and all my email addresses poped up for me to chose from. I didn't like this either. Appreciate any help. If these features can't be turned off whats the last version I can use that won't do this? cheers Neil

Hi all,

I am using Firefox 106.0.5 (64 bit). I cannot copy an image from Firefox and paste on to the WhatsApp app. The following steps however work:

  • copy the image
  • paste to a document editor (MS-Word) or image editor

Is this an intended change?

Synced tabs disappear after logging into two different devices

So I had a laptop that had to go under repair (device A), so had to use a different computer (device B). I sign into Firefox, and I can see the synced tabs from device A. For various reasons, the very next day I had to transfer to another computer (device C), so I logout of device B, and login into Firefox in device C. The synced tabs are no longer visible, even though in my account it says device A is still connected to the sync.

Bookmarks and such still load up just fine, I just can't see the device A synced tabs at all. Any clue why this is happening?

Also, is it normal that my email is still showing on the device B menu? Even though it says I logged out successfully, and device B is not showing in sync anymore, in the actual computer it's still showing on the menu above the "new tab" option. How do I remove my email from showing in that particular browse? Uninstall the program entirely?

But I see no button or other way to add a signature to the PDF I am viewing.

I am so fed up losing my pinned tabs.

I want a Firefox facility where I can have permanently pinned(locked tabs) and normal pinned tabs.

The permanent ones must not be able to be removed without myself physically clicking and removing them individually and are persistent when opening new browser instances, cannot be cleaned/removed by other cleaner programs are not saved in History.

Permanently pinned tabs should show a mark on the tab like a red padlock.

I use One Tab, but that has it's down side in that it clears my Tabs from the browser in to one single tab and then it is difficult to manage them, there are others and they all have their failings.

Please provide this locked tab facility.

Ever since your last two updates - Nov 4 and 5 - Gmail won't open in Standard View - only in HTML

I'm running Window 10 Pro (64) on a four year old PC

I can get Gmail to load in Standard view if I use Chrome (which I don't like) and in FireFox's Private window but it is inconvenient to have to which back and forth between windows.

I have tried all the fixes everyone a Google has given me but it come to a page that say Do you really want to view in HTML - why not click this button to be taken to Standard View" . I click on that link a page flashes for a millisecond and goes back to the " Do you really want to view in HTML"

I"m at my wits end.

Please help Wendy

Firefox unable to open local files

I am trying to open .html files located on my hard drive, but Firefox gives the error:

File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at /usr/share/gimp/2.0/help/en/gimp-pimping.html.

   Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
   Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

I can see the files at this location and even when I directly open the files from that location by double clicking them, I get this error. I have seen on Ubuntu forums that this might be a problem with the actual Firefox snap, any official help would be appreciated. Thanks.
