Is there a printable single sheet of most common firefox keyboard shortcuts?
There are so many, that a cheat-sheet version of the most common shortcuts would be my go-to reference daily.
Default search engine
My default search engine is set to Google but all searches are being done with Yahoo???

After updating to 70.0.1 I can no longer view many stories on the New York Times website. I can see the front page at NYTimes.com fine, but when I click on a story the story briefly appears then the page goes white (blank). Strangely, this doesn't happen on ALL stories, just most of them. I spoke with the NYT and they recommended using Chrome, which clearly I am not going to do.

I have consistently used Firefox as my browser and had no trouble using Ancestry.co.uk.
Over the past couple of weeks, it seems there are parts of Ancestry's functionality that no longer work with Firefox. When I first experienced the issue I tried to do the same operations using Bing, and there was no problem - so it seems the problem lies with Firefox.
Any ideas?

I receive new emails in Edge, and on my Android phone, but not in Mozilla since December, 31, 2019
UPDATE As of 3:00 p.m. PST today, all my email since December 31 is now showing up in my inbox. What I read in Edge shows as read in Firefox. None of my sent mail has updated, though, in Firefox
I'm making this update at 3:00 pm pst on 1/17/20 but the edit timestamp showed 9:52 pm pst on 1/11/20. How does that happen?

There is an addon for Chrome called Searbar Addon. It has an option to click in the search bar on almost any site and add that search to the bar. Is there a way to add a site, NOT another search engine, to the search bar in Firefox? It's one of the few things keeping me from primarily using Firefox. I do see where there are times a green plus sign will appear for me to add a site such as this support forum, but is there a way to add other sites that don't offer that green plus sign?

Hi,
I use Firefox as my default browser.
Whenever I click on a link in an email it opens a new Firefox window instead of opening a new tab on a Firefox window that is already open.
My preference is for it to open a new tab on an already open Firefox window.
I have looked in the settings / preferences and can’t seem to find where to make this change.
Please can you advise the process / steps for me to make this to happen.

Hey everyone,
For some reason, when I try to print HTML documents from Firefox, it is only printing the first page. This is not affecting ALL webpages, but it is affecting MOST.
If I try printing the same HTML page from another browser, it prints all pages without difficulty. But in Firefox, the print preview screen will show 'page 1 of 2', and the second page will be blank.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?
Why will toolbars not hide in full screen mode?

I'm using Firefox 68.0.1 on macOS Mojave 10.14.5. When I go full screen, the tabs and address bar remain at the top of the screen. I can't make them go away. I've tried:
- Installing plugins (I tried a couple) - Disabling Add-ons (Safe mode) - Resetting Firefox - Disabling hardware acceleration (and restart browser) - Using different techniques to go full screen (Cmd+Shift+F, Cmd+Ctrl+F, Zoom menu) - Scrolling or clicking in the canvas to ensure focus
No matter what, the tab bar and address bar remain on the screen (see attached screenshot). I've also attached my browser config (filtered on "full"). Is there any way to get a full-screen experience in Firefox?

When I go to a particular online forum and reply to a post, some of the form that appears, is automatically filled out. One of the fields copies the Re: filed from the post I am responding to. That information appears correctly for about a second and then it is replaced by wording that was used by me in this field long ago and it is incorrect. If I delete it, put my cursor into that field and press the down button I see the offending entry, I highlight it and then delete it. However, it appears again the next time I answer a post. This problem occurs only in Firefox, not in other browsers. I am using Windows 10 64 bit.

I do a search and a black screen with white font appears blocking me and claims you must be 18+ and I already claimed that earlier with safesearch off. I think this is a virus of some kind and wondering how to get rid of it. Have you heard of this happening? I look in Control Panel under programs to uninstall and don't find it there. What can I do?

Since a recent update, I now see WAY too many login suggestions for a website's username field. The issue is that the site has the same subdomain as other sites that I use on my company's network.
For example, if the following sites exist: aaaa.lan.domain.com bbbb.lan.domain.com cccc.lan.domain.com ddd.lan.domain.com etc., then when I browse to the login page for aaaa.lan.domain.com, the login suggestion popup will have ALL of the various logins for ALL of the various subdomains. There will be a huge popup with numerous logins that aren't even usable for the site I'm on. Firefox didn't do this until just recently (like a week ago or so), and before, it would only suggest the logins for the exact site you were on.
Is there a way to force the old behavior?

I have a very simple html code in which stored photos are called using a standard IMG tag. It seems that the EXIF orientation data is disregarded and the browser shows the picture as it is, often resulting in rotated images, whereas when viewed in Windows Explorer thumbnail view they look fine.
Is there any option or workaround in Firefox that would allow me to display the photos correctly?
Example of img tag used: img src="109 (1).jpg" width=1024
Firefox displays NYT website in single column on Surface Go

I have Firefox installed on Win 8 and 10 desktops and Surface Go and Android 10 inch tablet. On all but the Surface the New York Times front page is rendered in multi-column format. On the Surface, I get a single column more apropos for a phone. I find no option to 'Display as Desktop'.
It renders my local paper and others on the Surface in multi-column format
I've asked NYT support to look into this, they, of course pointed fingers at Mozilla.
Could someone recommend a way I could figure out what's going on here?
Thanks,
Dan

I want to be able to use email address links in a browser window by just clicking on them and have them go to the yahoo tab I already have open. Instead, Microsoft opens its Mail app and I have to login separately even though I already have a yahoo window open and logged in. Currently I have to copy the email address and go to my yahoo tab and start an email message there. It's not the worst thing to have to do, but if I could just click on the address and have it automatically open up my yahoo mail that would be more convenient.

I open a new window, and it says, "Google Search". So I type in a search item, the result comes back from YAHOO search. I have tried several times, without success, to change it, or remove YAHOO Search engine. Yahoo doesn't appear in the engine selections, and google does. I select it, save, restart, and BOOM... I get Yahoo rsults from the google search.... What gives?
Thanks...
I accidentally declined to save a login and password for a website I use frequently and I can't find how to fix that. It's not in Logins & Passwords

Firefox explains how to save a login/password but doesn't tell you what to do if you accidentally decline that feature when it asks. Every time I go to my online intuit account I have to manually enter the log in info because I accidentally declined to have Firefox save the login info when it asked me. I looked in Firefox Preferences>Privacy & Security>Logins and Passwords and finally in Exceptions & Logins. It's not in either of those places. It shows logins that I DO have but it doesn't tell me how to add logins for websites that I declined saving them in the past. When I go to the website Firefox won't ask me anymore if I want to save the login... AAHH! Help please?
