Firefox Support Forum

Firefox is telling me I can't use the JUB site because it's embedded, I don't know what that means? I've been using the site for over a year and I've never had a problem with Firefox. All of a sudden I'm having issues. I want to resolve this because I want to continue to use this site.

I have been having this issue with firefox for a while, where the developers options tab keeps opening up on its own, and closes on itself. I have attached a recording of the issue for better illustration. Many time I am unable to close it, it doesn't allow me to carry out my work when its up. My firefox is updated. Can anyone help identify what is the issue.

Hi,

There seems to be many Firefox processes running which consumes large amount of CPU and memory (attached) - I have only opened a single instance of Firefox however there seems to be problems with this. I end Firefox processes and start anew, however it appears the same. I restart the computer and open firefox it appears the same. I'm not sure whats going on. This is impacting my PC performance negatively.

I had several windows open each with different tabs in them.

I shut down them down and switched off my Mac.

On restarting my Mac, one of the windows had disappeared from the restore session. I've checked my History but the tabs don't appear there.

I'm using the latest version of FF on a Mac Air M2

Please advise.

In the last three or four weeks, while typing a reply in gmail or making a comment in Youtube, for instance, a console window pops up at the bottom of the screen. Very annoying. Never happened until recently. I can't figure out how to make it stop. I will NEVER need to use the console window.

I used to be able to open my Yahoo mail by clicking on the Mozilla icon, enter e-mail address & password. Now

it says I have to go thru Google:  I have NO Google account & I can't get into my e=mail.

WHAT GOOD WILL IT DO TO E-MAIL ME WHEN I

CANNOT GET INTO MY E-MAIL???

To problem with same thing. Address-bar work as search-engine I have poor eyesight and have enlarge the browser, and then I type in the search-bar, the the typing move to the little bar on the top, so I can not see what I have typed.

Another problem I have is when I will reach local-servers with Ip-number and the "address-bar" being a search-engine and I get a lot of hit on http;//10.0.0.1 and I cant reach the web-server.

Is it possible to fix that I get a real address-bar and a real enlarged search-bar?

on some websites it says -1 tells Firefox to automatically determine the size of the cache based on your physical disk and setting it to 0 would effectively disable any disk cache entrys.

so are this informations true and if not, how do i still let firefox automatically determine the size of the cache based on my physical disk?

i'm currently writing my own firefox user.js configuration and now i'm at the topic "unloading inactive tabs" like microsoft edge does.

so what are the preferences for this kind of topic?

i want inactive tabs which have not been used for more than 5 minutes to be unloaded.

chatgpt gave me this "browser.tabs.unloadAfterDelay" preference but this one doesn't even exist in the about:config preferenes, would it still work if it doesn't even exist?

G'day Guys. How are you all?

Needing some help with 3 things if I may bug you.  More than likely ID10T (ha) errors on my part but I am stuck

Ok. Here goes.

1. ipleak,net is showing Firefox for Android is leaking WebRTC. Cant access about:config so how do I plug this leak?

2. I have heaps of collections saved on Firefox for Android. How do I go to/view collections in Firefox desktop?

3. Where do I find pocket in Firefox for Android? I've looked but don't see anything. I've also used the share option and didn't see anything

Cheers

When I restart my Windows 11 Asus ProArt PC or my browsers reopen, the positions of my tabs will shift around. Sometimes the last open tab will move into position one from wherever it was. Other times the repositionings seems random. I had an issue where I needed to reboot 3 times and in one of 4 windows a huge chunk of tabs repositioned in reverse order. I want certain tabs aligned next to others for my workflow. This doesn't happen all of the time if I have been in a window but it happens more often than not.

I have my browsers set up with Tab Session Manager to open one tab next to another. I also made a change a while ago to where if I type in a different website within a tab it will open within that tab instead of opening a new one. I only open a new tab if I want to.

I also find that despite having different sites having been opened in the same tab once I come back to a new session the previous tabs I'd opened there are gone and only the new one remains. That is less of a problem than tabs simply repositioning themselves wherever they choose. But if that is a clue to what is going on, there it is.

You can see below my choices for - `1` for light, in `layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override` - `0` for light, in `ui.systemUsesDarkTheme`. - "Light" website appearance AND theme().

But why some websites still darken and blacken background ? Examples are https://superuser.com, https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com.

This mishap DOESN'T happen in Troubleshoot Mode. But I don't have the Dark Reader extension.

I was told I had to change my gmail account to whatever system you have now. I believe I have taken all the necessary steps, but would like to know how I access the emails I had on the old gmail account.

'I want to reduce the height of the two ribbons, (the tabs ribbon and the search navigation ribbon) at the top of my browser so that they do not take up as much height of the screen display. How can I do that?

I want to delete all my web certs except for the top seven, which cover 99.32% of current web certs. I specifically do NOT want the EU Cyber Resilience Act to have the ability to insert their certs into my root store, enabling their member countries unfettered power to compel acceptance of their certs.

I tried following https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA/Changing_Trust_Settings, but this must be for an earlier version. I don't seem to have an Options/Preferences window. On the other hand I am pretty old & maybe just can't find it....

Any hints on how to do this?
