Firefox Community Forum

Hello! For some time now I suddenly have no sound in Firfox, otherwise the sound works everywhere, even in other browsers. All help instructions do not help. Do I have to switch to another browser for good? Thanks for help

Hi. I am neirodivergent. my bookmarks are not saving, I am unable to fix the issue having followed 5 online articles/support answers. what am I to do. brain melting

I work with a web system where I need to view various types of files daily, such as images, videos, backups, etc. In previous versions of Firefox, when selecting the option to "Open with [application]," files were stored temporarily in a Temp folder and deleted after use.

However, now, even when I select "Open with [application]" in the download settings, Firefox saves the file to my Downloads folder instead of using a temporary location. This behavior clutters my Downloads folder with randomly named files I only need to view briefly.

I have already checked and adjusted the download settings, but the problem persists. Is there a way to revert to the old behavior where files are opened in a Temp folder and not saved permanently to the Downloads folder?

A while back I posted: Firefox NO LONGER adheres to "Ask if you want to Save" option..." Somehow - it was fixed after I posted - so I am trying again.

ALL my Application settings are correct - It says the browser is up to date - I am Windows 11 - Laptop. I don't know if it was an update that was just applied - I think it must be - As this was FINE yesterday - but NOW - When it press save - it automatically saves to a Download folder - It WILL NOT let me CHOOSE where to save. AND as you know in Settings, It says WHERE to save "DOWNLOADS" - you CAN change that - BUT - EVERY SAVE is DIfferent - I CAN'T and have NEVER saved something in the same folder every time - This was NEVER a problem - Just TODAY - so it has to be some upgrade that happened when I rebooted my laptop today. I have attached a screen grab - so you can see I have almost EVERYTHING as ALWAYS ASK - including Microsoft Word. HELP!!

Hello everyone.

I'm dealing with something a bit strange.

When I try to use Firefox on Linux to search for things with Google, the `+` character is automatically removed from the query string. For example:

• Searching for `c++`, I got `c`
• Searching for `g++`, I got `g`.

This issue doesn't happen for DuckDuckGo, but only Google (using the same browser, just different tabs). I don't have (and don't plan to install) other browsers on my linux box to try, but from another machine in the same network I didn't have this issue with Safari / Chrome.

I'm using Firefox for Linux on Fedora Sway Spin.

I created a screen recording but the forum doesn't allow posting video. I can share it if needed.

The issue happened locally (I think couple of days go, earlier I was able to search for C++ related stuff troubles).

Please let me know if there's anything I can try to fix this.

Thank you very much in advance

I have two computers. Both sign into the same Firefox account. Both instances of Firefox are the same version (134.0.1 64-bit).

On my main computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the first image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-42-57.png)

On the other computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the second image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-43-57.png)

How to I get both instances of Firefox to do the same thing when creating a new tab, i.e. organize the recommendations like the second image?

I have been using Private Browsing to read https://www.dailymail.co.uk for years because it blocks the adds. Now for the second time in years it seems to block a part of the page I don't want it too block. And for the life of me I cant remember if I did something to fix it the first time or Mozilla fixed it. Anyway the problem does not show up in ordinary Firefox but the adds make it so hard to concentrate while they keep flashing on and off all the time. So I have attached two screen shots to show the difference between the two Ordinary & Private. Any ideas very welcome. Thanks. First one shows the comment section that I want to see the second shows Private not showing them. Same story, day ect

I have Firefox's New Tab set as my home page, since I'm choosing to divorce myself from political doomscrolling for the next four years. The New Tab page is perfect for having frequently visited sites at the top, Pocket stories I can curate in the middle, and what used to be a history of articles and sites I've read most recently in "Recent Activity" along the bottom. Within the last few days, "Recent Activity" has been blank, and will no longer keep track of articles I've recently read. I've tried clearing the browser history and cookies, and it came back for a moment, but quickly went back to being blank. And the major downside to clearing the browser is that my four rows of most frequently visited sites gets wiped clean also, and I have to spend time getting them back on the list. I do not have Firefox set to automatically clear history upon closing it. I've tried turning "Recent Activity" off and on with the page's Settings (cog in the bottom right corner). I'd really like to have this back, as it can help me find recently read content (especially Pocket content) easier than wading through the History log. Any help would be appreciated.
