I need help. Please for the love god can any one help me ? Recently I've been having issues with firefox not play nice with web sites. It feels like I'm use it back in the day when IE was king. The Details, I'm running into sites were certain functions just don't work. Right now I can not log in to Target . When I got to my Car loan web site I can not bring up the statements. I clear the web data, start the browser in safe mode. I even removed ever plug in and it still does not work. It works fine in Edge and chrome . Hep what am I doing wrong ?

Firefox on my new HP Envy Lap top is hard to use. The text size in the title and menu bars is way too small. So I followed steps in "Support" to fix. Fine. But that made the bars full of empty space. The larger the text, the greater the wasted space. So I followed the steps in "Support" to get "compact mode", but the instructions fell short, as the step 7 says to click on the "density button", but there is no "density button" on my screen. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BUILD MY OWN BROWSER JUST TO GET A USABLE PAGE PRESENTATION. I was a Netscape user and adopted Firefox as soon as it came out. I just can't believe Mozilla is forcing me to use Edge. The presentation on Edge has none of Firefox's problems. PLEASE, SOMEONE FIX FIREFOX ON LAPTOPS!

How can I get my F12 shortcut to open DevTools?

From looking at https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/keyboard_shortcuts/index.html it seems that for some reason unclear to me the first opening must be manual or using this weird keyboard combination.

Yes, it is an almost exact opposite of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1080173

I admit that it is possible that something went wrong with general OS, not sure how to diagnose it. ctrl+shift+i still works for now.

Earlier today I changed my settings in "Privaty & Security" to "Clear history when Firefox closes". In that setting I selected to only delete "Browsing and download history."

I assumed this would just delete my browsing history from the URL bar, but now after I closed Firefox, it also deleted all my tabs!! There were many important tabs that I don't want to lose. But I also can't find them under 'recently closed tabs', and I also tried a solution from this forum, namely to find the recovery file and upload them to https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html -- but they don't contain my old tabs either!

Is there still something I can do to recover my lost tabs??

I am having a strange audio bug where certain websites have stopped playing audio, or partially stopped playing audio. I have made sure that nothing was preventing it from playing to the best of my knowledge, including checking my settings and troubleshooting mode, but to no effect. If I open the offending tabs in another browser the audio does play.

It first started with a single streamer's Twitch page (and no other stream), and has since spread to Twitter and starting today, Tumblr. I am getting audio without issue from other tabs such as youtube, but I fear this is only going to get worse, not better.

I rather not switch browsers but I'm worried I'll soon have no choice. Thank you for taking time to read this.

In the past few days, Twitter videos are no longer playing on Firefox on my laptop. They play fine on Chrome and also on my phone. YouTube videos play okay on my laptop. So it's not a problem with Twitter or my laptop. This only occurs on the Firefox browser/ I've tried all the solutions (clear cache, refresh Firefox, disable all add-ons, etc.) and nothing works. But this just started in the past few days. I'm running 108.0.1 (64-bit), but I wasn't having this problem right after the upgrade. It just started.

Firefox is my preferred browser, but, I'm sure most of us have encountered difficulties on certain sites, requiring the use of another browser. Currently, Fedex unusable in Firefox. Won't allow logins, etc. but works in chromium browsers.

But my actual reason for posting here is that I have a problem with Open in Brave Browser.

I used a method to move the Brave profile to a different location off of my my OS partition, using this command in The Brave Browser shortcut

"N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\brave.exe" --user-data-dir="N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data"

It works configured that way with the shortcut, but the "Open In Brave Browser" addon requires a "path to the executable, which is fine with the path you see in the image, but doesn't work with the modified path used to move the brave profile.

Is there anything I can do to make this work?

On one of my PCs the "Remember me" does not work .Please see the screenshot.

Normally, when I select "Remember me" the email address should be remembered and auto filled. On this machine it does not work.

Please note that I do not want to have login saved ( i.e. User Name and Password). Saving passwords works properly.

I tried to delete all data and uni stalled/reinstalled Firefox several times. the same problem

My browser has been shaking/crashing/jumping when I scroll on either Tumblr or (more recently) Youtube. The shaking/crashing has gotten increasingly worse, and reinstalling did not fix it. I attempt to set off the shaking/crashing in troubleshoot mode, but couldn't make it happen. When I got out of troubleshooting mode it happened instantly.

I have facebook container, privacy badger and ublock origin. What can I do to potentially fix the problem.

Hello,

Firefox is my default browser. I downloaded a Medicare form and the document was not legible (letters, numbers, odd symbols, etc.). The Medicare chat rep suggested I try another browser. I opened Safari and downloaded the same form and it was legible. What should I do to enable Firefox to produce legible downloads of Medicare forms?

Thanks

I received an email from this email add

breach-alerts@mozilla.com

Is this genuine or a phishing attempt? I get lots of phishing attempts. I don't use Firefox much so am not certain.

It suggests clicking on a link to go to dashboard which I haven't done. It's not clear and many scams use similar font and email adds to real accounts/email adds

Thanks
