Firefox Support Forum

My Widevine CDM Plug-in just crashed! I checked my Firefox settings and it looks like the Widevine plug-in just updated late last night, and is up to date. I fear the new update might be incompatible with my Firefox 78.10.Oesr / or my OSX 10.9.5 but I'm not sure. I'm not a mac savvy person but I'm always ready to learn. Any help would be appreciated!

I am trying to run firefox on AWS Lambda. I am running into error, most likely due to the read only file system. I wanted help determining the options to set to ensure that firefox writes everything to the "/tmp" folder.

Hello Hello,

I have an addon that makes my bookmarks open in new background tabs (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-bookmarks-in-a-new-tab/). This works in all but one instance. If I am already on the "New Tab" page, the bookmark opens in that tab. Is there any way to make the bookmark open in a background tab while I am on the new tab page? Thanks!

There is a thin border around the Firefox browser when it is not in full screen mode.

It disappears in full screen mode.

Is there a way to remove this border without having to use the browser in full screen?

Pictures attached.

Hi!

I find the status text mostly annoying, but the URL usually useful. So instead of hiding the whole thing I only want to get rid of the status information.

Hello, I'm reposting this question in better topic. After loading Firefox to 87.0 Now when I click on a "contact" button from a site I get 'courrier' from Microsoft. How can I get my xxx@free.fr address (zimbra mail) instead. Help from mozilla doesn't help me! Years ago the same problem was solved with a button on the first opening of the mail box.

My Firefox forgets that I want to use Windows standardapplication (Acrobat reader) when clickin on a .pdf-file. Firefox wants me to save the file after updates. Does anyone have a solution for this issue?

Firefox version : 87.0

Everytime when I try to type into the input field the "View saved logins" element covers the input. Can I disable this element or is there a way to move it under the field not covering the input that I'm typing into ?

Hi, thanks for clicking the post.

I have become very interested in the Logitech Craft keyboard. It has a wheel at the top left that has different functionality for different applications.

What I would want it to do is to be used as a simple scroll up/down in Firefox and other web browsers.

I have asked the community at Logitech's website and was told by a dude there that the Crown wheel in fact cannot be used as a simple scroll. Which seems to me like a major blunder as it is to me the first obvious thing for a wheel.

My question is if the information I got was incorrect. But if not, then I would very much appreciate if anyone here could tell me if there's any other way to get it, a simple scroll using the Crown wheel, working for Firefox.

Many thanks! Regards / B

Just before I updated to 88.0, my Instagram download apps stopped working on my desktop. I updated and still none of them work. Can anyone recommend one that still works on desktops?

hello I'm a personal user and i don't understand why and how the DisableAppUpdate has been put to "Disable". Can I get the way to modify this to get automatic updates as il was before Thks

Hi, FF 89.0b2 Developer edition now contains a "fake editable" search field at the home page (the sentence contains in the class attribute so I used it here), when one start typing in it and the letters appear in the address bar.

For me personally this is partly non-intuitive partly annoying. I never met a scenario in UI of other programs, when typing in one place (where the caret is) show actual letters at another place.

Is this feature is here to stay or are there plans to to make it customizable? I used ff home page search for ages, now I installed a new tab home page extension with manually setting www.google.com in it.

Thanks

I have Ubuntu 20.04, I have Firefox 87.0. I want this firefox to use my modified gtk+ 3.24. I cannot seem to get it do that. I can get gajim and thunderbird to use my modified gtk+ but not firefox. is the gtk+ library statically linked to the firefox executable? It may be a open ended question here, but which gtk+ (path) is firefox using?

The theme I am using has never made my new tab screen show up like it's in dark mode. The new tab used to show up like it was in light mode and I don't know how to get it back. The theme I am using has not updated so I don't think it is that. I have also tried switching to some other themes and it hasn't changed it to the white new tab screen. It's hard for me to read, please help. Thank you

I would like for Firefox to be able to: Warn me when closing multiple tabs without restoring my previous session.

I have researched online and tinkered with the browser's settings and I could only manage to make Firefox warn me when closing multiple tabs when I also had the option to Restore previous session enabled. I hope that something can be worked out in about:config.

In regards to the extension "mailto" it has been disabled by Chrome Web store in Edge and Chrome for a malware problem, but, it still shows active in FF. Would someone verify this is a safe extension or not. If unsafe please advise or disbale it

How can I restore "Close Tab" bottomost position in tab's right click menu? I used to its bottommost position and now instead of "Close Tab" there is "Restore Closed Tab". Which is useless for me and probably not only for me. Please help!
