I feel like this has to have been asked and answered 1000 times already, but when I searched I could not find any answer links that matched my question.

There seem to be so many variables in adjusting down to a molecular level what gets shown and what gets suppressed by customizing Firefox CSS, or by using about:config . But at this point for me, I am really looking for a DEFAULT USAGE solution. I'm sure there is one and I just don't know it.

All I want is to be able to use and click Mac's built in UI "Green" button in the traffic-light UI element at the top-left corner of a window, and have the browser obey and: strip out or suppress all Firefox browser "chrome" elements such as tab bar, URL bar, bookmarks bar -- and show me the webpage I am looking at truly full-screen. Then when done with full-screen view, I want to click/toggle Mac's "green light" button again and have all the Firefox browser UI elements return. (Tab bar, URL bar, bookmarks bar).

My computer died about three days ago, and firefox had three windows open. When I rebooted the computer again, firefox automatically started up, and the flyout panel thing that shows up when you right click on an app claimed that all three windows returned. However, only two of them were actually accessible, and clicking on the app to move between them and the F3 window confirmed this. Clicking on the third window accomplishes nothing, reveals nothing, and just moves the little checkmark around in that flyout panel. Closing the other two windows before restarting firefox does not open a new window because it thinks one is already there, but I cannot in any way see or access it outside of its label in the flyout panel. Even hitting "Show All Windows" just shows the window I am typing this in. What am I supposed to do here?

Several weeks ago, I was attempting to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11. In the process, I deleted Firefox (using Revo Uninstaller) and then reinstalled it, downloading it from the Mozilla website. Unfortunately, it didn’t run, giving me, at different attempts, different error messages. In the time since then, I have read many suggestions from many different websites and I have tried some of these suggestions, all with no success – until today. I have just completed the suggestions made on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1327628 and Firefox is now back, working. I am happy and grateful, but not finished. None of my personal data came with the currently functioning version of Firefox. Since the re-emergence of Firefox, I have been reading several websites dealing with copy, backup and restore of my Firefox profile. Right now, the path C:\Users\rsuth\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ shows 5 folders: Two of the folders show 11/11/24 as the date modified (probably the date of the download from Mozilla). The folder 0dppjrfa.default contains one file, times.json, dated 8/11/2020. The other folder, ru82tlj5.default-release, has 97 items, most dated 11/11/2024. The remaining three folders are all dated 12/2/24 (today, as I write this). One folder’s name ends .default, the second name ends .default-release, and the third name ends .default-release-thirteen digits. The question that I am asking here is what do I do next to, hopefully, bring back the personal date I had with Firefox before my updating to Windows 11. Should I delete the folders dated 12/2/24? What, if anything, is the significance of the folder whose name ends in 13 digits? I’m hoping someone will be able to tell me how to fix these Firefox problems. And if I can, then I hope to be able to do something similar to help me bring back Thunderbird as well. Thunderbird became unfunctioning at the same time as Firefox. Thank you.

Hi Everyone,

ever since the latest Firefox update, the "read more" feature on LinkedIn pages (personal pages, not the feed) does not show up anymore, at least not for me - the feature allows you to expand the various subsections to read their full content.

I opened LinkedIn on Chrome and Edge to see if it is indeed a browser issue, and it's working fine over there. I also did some troubleshooting (refreshing, clearing cache), but to no avail.

Does anybody else have the same problem?

Thank you!

Hi, recently I encountered a werid popping sound while listining to music on YT. Firstly as I wanted to change my old DAC I swichted to a new one (every reason to buy new stuff is good), but now it is unberable. I spend some hours trying to figure out, watching tutorials etc. disabling all the stuff from device manager, checking if fast boot option is disabled, rolled back drivers, swithed to USB 2.0, disabled all of the extentions etc. etc. (the sound popping was only in youtube, but I figured maybe its due to my hardware or something). However, I found out that clearning cashe works for a couple of minutes, and browsing on incognito tab also works for some time. This leads me to belive that maybe a new updated is somehow messing it up, or google really wants me to use chrome. Any advice would be helpfull. Thanks

Newly restored Lenovo factory image. 2 pieces 3rd party sw: Atlas (v0.4.1 9Oct2024) and Firefox 133.0. Windows 10 22H2, no updates pending, Edge / Cortana / CoPilot removed (by Atlas).

FF sync account is recognized, sends auth code to email, when enter code, get the: "Bad Request Something went wrong. Please close this tab and try again." at each attempt.

Oddly, I have 2FA enabled, and have not been queried for its code. Perhaps that is where process is failing?

Another Lenovo machine, M710Q 1TB 16GB Windows 22H2 with Atlas, Firefox 133.0 and a slew of 3rd party software and updates is running just fine. Am able to sync / manipulate account as needed, FF Relay, etc.

Suggestions / tips before I nuke the M920Q and start from scratch again?

I have been paying my bills online using Mozilla, but the last few months, have not been able to log into some of the credit card & utilitiy sites, it just sits there with a spinning wheel forever. If I go to a different browser, I can log right in & pay my bills. I don't know if it is something I am doing wrong or a setting that has to be changed somewhere or something else.

I'm setting up a new Mac with Sonoma 14.7.1. with Firefox 133.0 (UK English).

Normally my basic zoom setting is 133% with the 'zoom text only' box UNchecked. This has always worked in the past but the settings no long 'stick' and need a reset every time Firefox is restarted.

Firefox is installed in the admin account and I'm running as user, although this has not been a problem in the past.

Is this a known bug or is there a workround for it? All help & suggestions appreciated.

Hi all.

I'm wondering if someone can help me with an issue I'm having with the Firefox autofill function. Which has just stopped working.

Absolutely a first world problem BUT its super irritating as now I have to manually input card details when I purchase anything online. And as I purchase materialS all the time for work it's v laborious...

I'm on a Macbook Air 2020 M1 and just updated it to OS 14.6.1.

Firefox def seems to remember my various card details as they pop up on the form fields; but then disappear as soon as I try and select the one I want to use?

Ive poked around in Settings but toggling on & off / resetting etc doesn't seem to make any difference.

Any advice gratefully welcomed ;)

I have started to use the vertical tab layout because the ability to collapse the tab bar gives a lot of extra screen space to work with on my laptop. I like to be able to split my screen between different apps to work with.

When I try to split screen Firefox with vertical tabs enabled the window cannot be resized down to a little more than half the width of my screen. So it has to take up a just little more than half my horizontal screen space. Even though I can collapse the tab bar to see the page.

Is there a way I can circumvent the unnecessary horizontal window resize limit when vertical tabs is enabled?

Bonus question: When I do reduce horizontal window size it hides the button to collapse and open the sidebar. So I lose a lot of essential control. Is there a way to pin it so it won't disappear no matter what?

For starters, I'm using Firefox 133.0 (64-bit), Windows 10, Logitech Trackman Marble Mouse (and I've used this mouse forever and a day)

In ONLY Google Messages for web, the vertical scrollbar is skinny and doesn't work well. I have to click above it and then it's hit or miss if it will scroll.

I have NO issues with any other website so far. In Chrome and Brave browsers I have no issues with Google Messages. It seems this is uniquely a Firefox with Google Messages issue.

I'm curious if there is a way to fix this. One time for grins, I right clicked the scroll bar and selected Inspect. I was able to figure out how to widen the scrollbar and that helped; however, it was only for that session. I did not see a way to "save" those changes.

PS: This mouse does NOT have a scroll wheel. Using a mouse WITH a scroll wheel works. But then again, with my Logitech marble mouse I depend on the scroll bars and have no issues with any other website. Thanks.

Hi, there are bugs with text selection when using touch. The video below explains. But simply selecting text is really buggy and the bugs happen randomly, long pressing on text sometimes selects text sometimes not, sometimes opens context menus sometimes not. The preferred behavior is to select text and open the context menu at the same time.
