Firefox Community Forum

I would like to be able to view the names of tabs and the address bar. I am able to adjust the page views and all is well there. I do not want to use stronger glasses just to view the tabs and address bar and then switch to another strength of reading glasses.

I accidentally blocked a web site that I need. I have followed all of the instructions to unblock (creating a master password, etc) but it does not work. I need to get this site unblocked as soon as possible.

Each time I shut my Mac off and the next day open it up again, Firefox opens up and there are NO bookmarks on the left side. So I have to do the Command B to get them back up. I have neverf had to do this until recently??????

I discovered that I cannot sync with my google account protected from 2FA.

In detail:

1. Numbered list item showing something went wrong page when I am trying to login from (about:preferences#sync);
2. Numbered list item Login successful with another account not protected by 2FA

Note that:

1. Numbered list item cookie allowed;
2. Numbered list item using newest version;
3. Numbered list item protection set to standard;
4. Numbered list item tried to reinstall firefox

but none of them are successful.

I have also confirm that:

1. Numbered list item the account is able to sign in from other platform from mozilla(it's the account I'm using now)
2. Numbered list item there's no (significant) error logged from the F12 console

I have a program which I use exclusively on Firefox and until a few days ago I could open the rtf files which I downloaded on MS Word. Suddenly they won't open. I was told to go to the settings >In Firefox Settings>General, under the “Files and Applications” section, be sure that RTF files are set to “Open in Word” There is no rtf listed there as a file type. Did something get changed recently? This is a massive problem for me. I really hope you can help. Thank you

I can not edit the domain address in the password save section. I can change user name and pw, but not the domain name/address. This is very annoying for sites like twitter that have now changed to x as it's not straight forward and prohibitive to my own saved information and it not allowing me to alter it in the EDIT section. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hello,

I’ve noticed that Firefox does not show the translation icon in the toolbar for a webpage, even though the page is in English. When I manually go to "Application Menu" → "Translate Page…", I receive the message: "Translation is not available for this page - Sorry, this language is not yet supported." However, if I click on "Change source language" and manually set it to English, the translation works correctly. It seems like Firefox is not detecting the language of the page automatically, and as a result, the translation feature does not appear unless I manually intervene. The issue occurred on this page: "https://mantisbt.org/docs/master/en-US/Developers_Guide/html-desktop/#dev.contrib.submit.before".

I also looked for a way to report this issue, but I only found a form for reporting incorrectly translated words here: "https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdoRWnsHX6vVnGIRyLi4Kl-p0GrmeVIioqWsTz3aVTRfLScng/viewform". There doesn't seem to be an option to report entire sites where the translation does not work at all.

I'm using: Firefox Desktop 138.0.4 (64 bit) on Windows 10 22H2. Thanks for your help.

I lost all my tabs groups with the the update to release date for Firefox 138.0.4 on the 2025-05-19. Tab groups are still configured but my sessionstore.js is missing. I notice that there is a backup in Session-store backups dated the 2025-05-19 so I presume the tabs groups are still stored there. Can anybody suggest how to get the tab functionality back? I'm hesitant to just restore the sessionstore.js -- the actual tab group functionality is gone. I can't even recreate the groups.

My locahost React JS development environment with Vite stopped working after the last update. When I run the development server on "http://localhost:5173/", the page never resolves. It work fine on my other machine. Is there some security setting prevent the page to load?

If I select "Privacy & Security > History > Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings > Data > Site settings" what SQLite files affected when Firefox closes?

I suspect in the profile folder directly, there's a file called "storage.sqlite", but there seems to be more things affected because the whitelist for my cookies is also wiped-out.

In my experience (115.23.0.esr), when I request to remove site data when Firefox closes, it wipes out my cookie white list, so I want to manage that myself.

Hello, Until recently, I was able to double tap the browser bar and have the window expand to fill the screen just short of "full screen" mode so I could still see the menu/task bar. I remember I did need to adjust settings for this somewhere but can no longer figure it out now that it is not functioning to this spec any more.

I did check about:config to see if "apz.allow_double_tap_zooming" was set to TRUE and it is, by following this suggestion below:

I just updated my Firefox app and it rearranged all my bookmarks. I would love to go in and resort them back to how they were before, but the only options I have on mobile are automatic sorting of alphabetical or chronological. I don't know if the manual sorting option was removed, but if it hasn't I'd like to know how to acess it. Thank you!

I updated my desktop browser today and now there is an expandable sidebar at the left margin of the window showing tool icons for Tabs from other devices, History and Customize sidebar. I can see how to remove tool icons and how to expand or collapse sidebar but can I remove the sidebar completely? Is this an option? I prefer the old look with the browser web page content extending all the way to the left of the screen, without the narrow vertical sidebar.

Just installed Firefox for macos Monterey.

On the "Home" tab in preferences, it lets me enter "https://www.bing.com" for the Firefox Homepage. Then for New Tab it lets me select "Firefox Homepage".

However when I open a new tab, I still get Firefox page with a Google search box.

What am I don't wrong? Thx
