I have no screen capture whatsoever - no menu comes up with a right click, no screen capture icon is present to add to the menu. I used to have an add on but that disappeared and is no longer available. From your latest tips letter I think I'm using a different browser entirely! If you can help I'd appreciate it- as I say I used to have it in my browser but no longer. Now I have to screen capture and edit it in an external program- I'm sure you'll agree this is horrific to have to do.

In the past few weeks or so, I have noticed an issue when I try to bookmark a tab.

Previously, I would click on Bookmarks, then click on Bookmark Current Tab in the dropdown menu and I would see a list of all my Bookmark folders from which I could select one.

What happens now is I click on Bookmarks, then click on Bookmark Current Tab in the dropdown menu and the dropdown menu disappears WITHOUT showing my list of folders to select from.

What the Bookmark Current tab function now does is to default to the previous folder that a tab was saved in with no option to select the folder I want.

So now, I have to go through additional steps of once again clicking on Bookmarks, then click on Edit This Bookmark in the dropdown menu, which then opens a box where I am then able to select the actual folder I want.

I'm running MacOS 11.5.2 and Firefox 92.0.

How can I resolve this issue?

FF has been my default for decades primarily because of superior print options. I use Custom Print option to print out pages in larger front, but this no longer seems to work in 92.01. At say 115 custom I lose text to right and bottom of page (both in preview and print to PDF).

Hi,

I've been going through all the Spell Checker problems with Firefox on the forum and so far nothing has solved my problem.

Since re-installing Firefox, my spell check is not working. It's ticked in the language settings and I've since installed two dictionaries. I read on one post to check if the dictionary is selected (or something) by right-clicking and selecting languages in the languages sub menu but when I right-click, there is no such menu.

Short of re-installing Firefox and hoping for the best, anyone have any potential solutions?

Cheers.

A few days ago, a weird problem arose with "Take Screenshot" function.

The resulting image includes area designated PLUS a border on the right edge AND on the bottom edge. Note: width of side border is wider than border on the bottom is tall. This is difficult to tell in a file image because it seem to be transparent and assumes the color of background. Confusing, I know, so I have included a composite image image of result of "Save Image As..." on top, and the "Take Screenshot" added to the bottom. Prior to a few days ago, the bottom image would not have the added borders and therefore the colored part of the image would be the same width as the "Save Image As..." and extend to bottom of the image.

Note: it doesn't matter whether I download to file or cut and paste the image. The same thing happens if I "Save Full Image". And, yes, I know I need to upgrade to latest version, but this issue needs investigation...

TIA, KBo

All of a sudden I cannot download attachments in emails from my aol.com account (using the aol.com website). I can still do so on other browsers, but not on Firefox. I have cleared my cache, and even reinstalled Firefox (after deleting my user profile files and signing back in on a newly reinstalled copy). The problem persists. The problem does not happen when I boot in Troubleshoot Mode. But I cannot figure out what's causing the problem to fix it in regular mode. Help!

Some sites like OP.GG have a black stroke on letters. I've already looked at other forums and options.


Settings > Language and Appearance > Fonts and Colors > Advanced > Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above. This method does not work along with disabling high contrast (disabled already)

Any sort of help would be appreciated except telling me what I already did. Thank you

Hello,

I'm using firefox-dev under linux debian buster and would like to keep it as my default browser and even more after all those recent articles in media where they say firefox is loosing its users.

I received the newletter from netflix and I tried to watch a trailer (https://www.netflix.com/watch/81387952?trkid=13710079&MSG_TITLE=81387952&lnktrk=EMP&g=79ECBFC7B02B1269F43D15B11C9BA9F56455502C&lkid=TRAILER_CTA) but even after i clicked on accept drm, the video was stuck nothing happened I just saw one single fixed picture of the movie.

Later, I was on facebook, trying to watch a video (https://www.facebook.com/demotivateur/videos/5009752875718446) and the same here without any DRM...

For both of the cases I opened chrome pasted the url and video played very well.

Is there something to tweak to make it work ? Is it because I'm under debian ?

I don't want friends to switch to chrome but I understand them sometimes.

Kr,

Eric

What is going on with Firefox on Linux? It's been my favorite browser for years and I want to stick with it, but it becomes unusable.

I've got 32GB of RAM, so I should theoretically be able to open quite a few tabs (which I need as a web developer), but when I have about 15 tabs open, it consumes about 1GB of ram per tab. Usually I have some webmail tabs open, google drive, youtube, some documentation and references, github, example sites... you know, the usuall stuff you find in a web dev's browser.

I'm running the latest updates on Ubuntu 20.04 and have the latest Firefox installed. On my Windows (dual-boot so the same computer, but windoze is more for gaming than for work), I can open 50 tabs and have no memory issues at all. I'm syncing my extensions so it's the exact same configuration, yet on Linux it's huge a pain in the behind to keep using it.

Are there any fixes for this? I've seen other complain about similar issues for previous versions of Firefox and other Linux distros, I've ran through all the self help suggestions and nothing helps.

Visited links are turning color to purple in my firefox, which is default color, I did not change those color settings, and usually this behavior works but sometime on some links in google search result

  1. Clicked link turning color
  2. Checking the page and clicking back button
  3. visited link color is still blue, should have been purple

I tried to open same search result in another tab but still no purple color for visited link. probably google adding some parameter to visited link which is making firefox algorithm to not to understand is this link visited or not.

you can see behaviour at https://youtu.be/2xAc4yf3uJY or https://imgur.com/1kydG7m or https://imgur.com/7g8aivL
