A new version of the "List All Tabs" appeared on my toolbar today, shown on the left and hovered over in the attached screenshot (ignore the Malwarebytes extension icon). The old icon for this button was a chevron with approximately the same functionality. I was able to remove the old icon, but I'm unable to find a way to remove this one. Here is what I've tried so far:

  • Like the old one, the Customize Toolbar feature is unable to remove it since it is grayed out.
  • For a while, I was able to remove the old icon by going to about:config and setting browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled to false. This solution does not work for the current and some recent versions of the button.
  • I attempted to create a userChrome.css file (following all the steps according to this this website) and added the following string: #alltabs-button { display: none !important; }

None of these attempted fixes have removed the button following a browser restart. Is there a way to remove it? I have no need of a button that shows me what tabs I have open when I can simply look at my toolbar.

Hi, my firefox appears to be missing its navigation/toolbar. I only have a single bottom bar for the address bar, home, tab and the three dots. I would like to have the back, forward button, bookmarks to be pinned on the toolbar area. I try to use the Secret Setting but it does not have the option to enable toolbar. I have included two screenshots, the orange circle depicting my current situation. I would like to have something similar to the toolbar (Samsung Internet Browser) in the other screenshot with teal circle.

Hello, Sorry to disturb but its been two days and I am unable to access my Google accounts (work and private) through Firefox in anyway. I have done all the basic fixes I can think of but with no success. I have deleted caches, checked plug ins, rebooted Firefox went through the trouble shooting mode, followed advice in the community forum, tried logging in from Google linked accounts. Spoke to our internal IT support at work but nothing has solved the issue as yet, spoke to Google support.

My assumption is that it has to be the browser as I am able to log into google with another browser but Firefox is my preferred browser and would like to use it again as such.

Please advise.

Thank you Cait

I'm visually impaired and had originally used a CSS code to fix this problem, but that was a couple of years ago. I just upgraded to 131.0.3 (64 bit) and evidently, that wiped out all my CSS changes. I tried to use the about:config code to change it, but it no longer works. I managed to increase the icon size a little by changing the density to normal, then back to compact. Even on normal, it was all too small.

I don't want to use another profile, because every time I do, I lose so much that it takes me hours to reinstall it all.

Is there an easier way to do this? I've tried a couple of things suggested online, but they were old settings suggestions, and they no longer work either.

ALSO, I now have to use F11 full screen to be able to perform anything on the toolbars. Before this update, I could just move my cursor up to bring the toolbars down, and use the back arrow or refresh easily. Now, the toolbars immediately go back up and I have to use F11 to do anything. How do I fix this?

TIA for any help you can give me.

There are 4 toolbars at the top of the Firefox screen. The default order from top to bottom seems to be:

 Menu bar
 Tabs bar
 Navigation bar
 Bookmarks bar   (which Firefox apparently calls "PersonalToolbar")

I would like to move the Bookmarks bar above the Tabs bar so the order is;

 Menu bar
 Bookmarks bar
 Tabs bar
 Navigation bar

I tried to use ChatGPT to accomplish this. After well over 6 iterations, I gave up (ChatGPT was still going strong - hallucinating?). The only code in userChrome.css that accomplished this is shown below. Unfortunately it leaves the order as:

 Bookmarks
 Navigation
 Menu
 Tabs

Can a human expert help me where ChatGPT failed? ___________________

I use Google search and do not like the AI overview feature. In the Chrome, Edge, and Opera browser I've added an extension that blocks the AI. What I've noticed when I use FF I see no AI results when using Google search and I've not added an AI overview block extension. Is there something different about FF that prevents AI results from showing without the need for an extension? I look forward to your comments. Thanks

I recently reloaded my M1 MacBook Air with macOS Sequoia. Ever since doing so, Firefox opens the right-click menu every time I press Control+Return (like when attempting to autocomplete a URL ending in .com, a feature I use quite frequently). It is only in Firefox that this happens, no other browser or program is doing this. I have uninstalled Firefox using AppCleaner, downloaded a new copy of Firefox 131.0 and reinstalled without any change in this behavior. Any ideas on what I can do to stop this so Control+Return only autocompletes a URL again?

My system memory is reading at 57% right now in task manager, that the vast majority of that is being used by Firefox.

Why?

Normally, this would be called a flaw in the program, not the user, as all I have done in regards to settings is "keep tabs previous open when re-opening Firefox" and "Do not automatically update" because Firefox took it upon itself to not re-open my previous tabs on the last update.

Why is this program eating up all of that memory? I have "Firefox (15)" in Task manager under "Apps" and then 13 more instances of Firefox in "Backround Processes"

Wtf?

When I try to enter a password for any website after a few updates ago, I don't get the option to enter my password that's saved in my password list into the fields anymore. I have to manually search, copy, and paste the information in. The app will then ask me if I want to update or modify the login information that is unchanged from what should already be in my browser.

Regardless of whether I say yes or no, the password remains unselectable when I go back to that website, and when I manually enter the information, it again asks me if I want to update the login information.

Firefox updated to version 131.0 64 bit. Bill payment functions on my banking web site stopped working. I cleared cache and cookies and restarted PC but didn't fix it. I tried using Microsoft Edge and the banking web site worked as always. The bank IT person said it was a Firefox problem. Also, the site says not to block 3rd party cookies, enable cookie tracking and cross-site tracking. In Firefox, I made all changes to allow these things for this site but it still doesn't work. Looks like the latest Firefox update is causing a problem that always worked in the past, while trying to fix something else.

On certain websites, I see that the background color of the new tab page replaces the default background color making the content unreadable, example:

If I browser this website: https://typespec.io/docs

Here's what I see (see the firsrt attached screenshot). Now, if I open the same URL in Private browsing, the background color changes too (see the second screeenshot). In the 3rd screenshot I'm adding the reference rendering, that's how I expect this website to render (Edge).

In the screenshot 1 and 2, the background color is exactly the same as the one used by the new tab page when I open a new tab.

Questions: 1) Why is that? 2) Can I change that?

Context: I'm trying to switch to Firefox (from Edge)

I use Firefox on Ubuntu Linux, and it works fine.

For unrelated reasons I have created a new Linux Mint 22 boot partition, and I would like to use the same Firefox profile on both Linux OS-s, without having to move or copy the existing profile I use on Ubuntu. (The profile is placed on a third independent data partition!) I cannot find any information on how to do it. All information I find involves moving the profile, but then Firefox on Ubuntu would not be able to continue to use it.

I look forward to hear from you. Thank you. :-)

I want to create a list of allowed web sites in settings/cookies&data/manage exceptions, but it seems I have to enter each site MANUALLY. I would like to do this more quickly and easily by just selecting sites in the "manage cookies" list and designating them as exceptions. Or is there already some other way to do this that I haven't found? Also, after I have made exceptions for all my important sites, by whatever means, can I assume that I can press "delete all" in the "manage cookies" list and the allowed sites will not have cookies removed? What happens to exceptions if I select "delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed?" If there is no way to make exceptions other than manually, I respectively request that some convenient method be added to the program. Thanks for any response.
