I just changed my Thunderbird to accommodate Microsoft Exchange (and had to enable the Owl add-on to do so). Now there is NO option available to set reply text at the top of a reply message. Replies are automatically set at the bottom after the first message in the string by default (which makes no sense and shouldn't have been the default). The option which used to be available in the Composition page of the Settings page is not there. How do I set reply text to appear at the top of a message as a standard??

Steps to reproduce : - go to YouTube - open a video - press the full screen button or tilt the phone sideways to trigger full screen - Firefox crashes and forces back to home screen - if opening Firefox again only half of the video component shows as in portrait mode, rest is black screen - if attempting to go side/full screen does properly show the video, but going back again to normal screen still shows the half black screen

I can reproduce this with a almost 100% rate, it only fixes itself by restarting Firefox, where it will work until phone is put to sleep mode.

I tried reinstalling Firefox from scratch, as well as deleting my browser cache and it didn't fix.

Hello Mozilla Support Team,

Since one of the last updates firefox Download Setting seems not work properly...

Into Settings > Files and Applications > Downlods > Save files to option is ALWAYS on, even when "Aways ask you where to save files" option box is checked. When I open a PDF in view mode with Firefox, it automatically download it to the location described into "Save Files to"..in my case Desktop. It seems that the "Save Files to" option doesn't gray out when "Always ask..." option box is checked.

Do you have any idea why I can't chose just one of the two options?

Thanks for you help...

Hello!

Firefox for Android consistently closes whenever I try to play a video in full screen mode.

The steps to replicate this bug are as follows: I go to a website that has a video (like YouTube), I start playing a video, and then I click on the full screen button. Firefox then closes out to the main menu of the home. When I try to reenter the app, the Firefox app becomes a black screen with a horribly offset tiny corner showing a portion of the webpage.


I cannot find any crash reports in the "about Firefox" subsection of the settings

I am using The latest version of Android 13 And my version of Firefox is 114.2.0 (Build #2015957435). I have tried clearing the app cache, and reinstalling the app. Neither fixes it.

Please let me know if I can provide anything further!

Does anyone have any recommended fixes?

I'm running Mac OS 12.6.6 and Firefox 114.0.1. When I try to log into my Google account, I get the message, "This browser or app may not be secure." I'm running the current version. Javascript is enabled. I've cleared my caches and data. I can log in to Google on other browsers, such as Safari. • This happened after I set up my browser to use Bing Chat, which required that I clear my cache and data.

I have searched in vain to find a way to keep cookies for a certain site on my android. Everything I see says to go to privacy in settings, but that doesn't exist on my phone's browser.

It's really irritating to have the site always send me an email, warning me that I have logged in, as well as insisting on texting me a code. Telling it to recognize my device does nothing if the cookies are deleted. (And, no, I'm not going to set it to always save all cookies when I choose "quit" on the browser.)

Please add this ability, Firefox! My computer browser has had the ability for years and years.

Autofill often fails to fill forms and leaves suggested logins open breaking the back button (browser closes instead of going back a page). Hacker News ( https://news.ycombinator.com/login ) is one such form where only the password is filled in when using suggested logins and the ui element stays open breaking normal back-button usage. This issue has persisted since at least a few Firefox releases ago, I don't recall if this happened on Android 12, before I upgraded to 13. I use Android 13 on a Google Pixel 7 Pro, the only addon I use/have enabled is uBlock Origin.

I don't really have a question, just an issue & scenario to report, apologies if this is improper. I've been a happy desktop&mobile user since the pheonix days. I'll help where I can.

I am running Ff 114.0.2 on a Windows 11 workstation and Ff mobile on a Samsung Galaxy S20. Syncing is enabled on both devices, but passwords are not syncing, even after manually syncing. Autofill of usernames and passwords works on my workstation, but not on my mobile device, even though that feature is enabled. Sometimes (but not always), I am prompted on my mobile device to unlock Firefox, but after tapping the prompt, nothing happens.

What Search popup taskbar in Firefox? Like Clrt+F “find in page” is appear!. It’s a virus spam. Or what is it problem Bug?

Now Version 114 on Windows 11 64

When I print the keyboard to find in a box or typing wrong, then search popup taskbar in Firefox is appear! Why? it's like click the menu bar F10 button "edit" followed by "find in page".? What is it? According to the sample image. Sometimes there is a lot of code for writing a website! It is a virus spam. Or what is it?

There was a user asking this problem. Which is like my problem as follows

“Whenever using Firefox, I keep getting a pop-up box on the left side of the bottom of the browser which seems to search the webpage for whatever is in the box. This happens if the cursor is not exactly in a specific search box or designated area on the screen. I can reproduce the problem by clicking on the page (just the page, not a box or input area) then typing. It may be a function but has become so overwhelmingly annoying that I find it necessary to find a way to deactivate it. If I click something else like another window and don't click the mouse exactly on a specific search box or input area when I go back to the page, it inputs the text I am typing down in this box. I don't like this; I don't want this. Please help me rid the browser of this menace. I put an image of the problem below and circled the offensive box. Thanks for any help given. I did try to search for this issue to see if there was already a solution but could not find one, hence posting this question. I just found out this is the same box that pops up when you click the menu bar button "edit" followed by "find in page". Don't know why in the world this thing is popping up by itself when it is neither needed or desired.”

I use firefox More than 100 versions and no problem But my problem would be like above. Thank you for helping each other.

How can this be allowed to happen? This goes against everything private browsing is supposed to be.

I open a private window' log in to gmail, reddit, amazon, any site, etc; i close private browsing window entirely - removed from taskbar; i reopen private browsing and all my sessions are still signed in.

The fact that this is happening is negligent to the point of criminality. WHAT is the solution and why is this being allowed to occur?

I have tried updating Firefox a number of times to 115.0.3 and each time I have had to roll my PC back to a pre-update state because I get a warning from MS Defender that I have a Trojan. What do I do in order to update the program without this very disconcerting warning?

Thanks in advance.
