Firefox Support Forum

Hi There,

If i have been through 100s of pages in 1 tab and I want to go back, say, 80 pages, I have to right click the back button and select the page at the bottom (the 14th page) and this will take me back 14 pages, then again, right click, on the back button and select the bottom page and again it takes me back another 14 pages, and again..... etc etc until I get to the page I want. My question is; How can I get a longer list of pages when I right click the back button, may be list of 30 pages, so when I click the bottom page this would take me back 30 pages? (see pic, I edited the pic to show you what I want to see, the long list) Many Thanks

Tony.

Im having issues with my add ons/ Extensions not working. Only one shows in the top bar next to the URL area. Im unable to add any others despite having other Extensions such as Screenwise Meter, Topcashback, Honey. None of these are working though even though in the Manage Extensions area they are all enabled. I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still they do not work. Topcashback, Screenwise Meter and Honey all do not work when I try them out.

Any help to fix this would be great.

Hello, I recently switched from Chrome to Firefox, and I can't print a PDF with two-sided and flipped on the long edge. It only flips on the short edge (that's weird...). I know it is possible with my printer because I used to do it with Chrome. How can I print two-sided and flipped on the long edge ? Thanks for your help !

I was led to believe that I had to update my Windows program several days ago. After multiple messages that an update needed installed and I needed to restart my computer, I finally did that and haven't been able to click on the icon for Firefox, or any other browser for that matter, ever since. I get the same error message if I try to use Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome. I already followed your steps to make Firefox my default browser. Comcast technical support was of no help at all. I also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and that didn't help either. Also, once I click on the "home" icon on my toolbar my homepage eventually comes up. I have also found that when I am trying to print from "File" on the toolbar there is no longer a Print Preview which I used all the time and that area gave me the option to change the % so that I wasn't wasting as much paper. What happened to that option?

My Firefox browser doesn't display photos and run videos when viewing/reading a subject article on websites. Both just show up as a gray, blank screen and there is no audio as well for videos. Nothing. Is there a setting for photos and videos for display on the Firefox browser that I may have missed in my settings search to alleviate these two issues. I believe my Firefox browser is automatically updated, but would want to confirm this. How do I confirm Firefox is up to date and automatically updates? My OS is Windows 10 and it is automatically updated. Help anyone.

Some time back, I had made a bookmark for a list of books. I cannot find it now on my list of bookmarks. (I have MANY bookmarks.) I'd like to search using the search term "book*.*" How would I do this? If this not a feasible way to find my lost bookmark, is there another way that might work?

Thank you for reading and for any suggestions.

A white bar completely covers the top of the browser. It is if the menu bar has disappeared. If I try and click where the menu bar should be I click right through the window to the other open applications below.

This has happened a few times and the only way to remedy it is to reboot the machine.

Any idea what is happening?

I am running firefox on windows 10 Version 84.0.2 (64-bit) (latest available)

I have win. 10 and Yahoo.com is my home page. When I click on a story on the Yahoo home page not all the images in the story become visible on the page.I never had this problem with win 7 and firefox.

Hello, i recently discovered the firefox developer edition and i'm a bit disappointed, that the console doesn't the stack trace of an error error messages as nice as other browsers. Do i need to install a tool for that?

I've posted the following in the MS Office Forum:

In the Word desktop app I used "-->", which Word autoconverts to a nice arrow. When viewing the document in the browser version of Word it gets mangled and shows up as a "à" symbol. Note: This happens on the same computer! My browser is Firefox (84.0.2). When using Edge or Chrome the arrows are displayed properly.

And got the following answer:

This appears to be a bug in Firefox. The two characters have the same Unicode value, 00E0, but the arrow is in the Wingdings font while the à is displayed in most non-symbol fonts. Although the font box on the ribbon in Word Online says the font of the character is Wingdings, Firefox fails to show it in that font.

Given that both Edge and Chrome seem to be able to display the document correctly, it seems to me that this is a Firefox bug?

Hello.

I noticed that when using the newest version of Firefox (84.0.2) I can go up to "logins and passwords" and all that's needed, even when not logged into the Firefox account in any way is to just click the "eye" icon and it shows the password.

How is this in any way considered secure? Anyone, at any time can just click this and see the passwords to all my web sites. I guess I will need to go back to using Edge where at least it asks me to use my PC login before it shows the passwords.

Firefox recently - now seeing ver. 84.0.02 in Jan 2021 - when trying to print a page in Firefox Browser is really poor and very difficult to use. What stupid programmer or Mozilla exec decided to take away the option to easily re-size (or "simplify pages") and then easily select pages which pages to print? Stupid decision - very stupid. Makes me decide to change from Firefox and go elsewhere for a browser!!! NOW I have to, when I print, go through an extra step of selecting ":Print using the system dialog..." to easily select double sided printing and select only desired pages. AND I STILL CANNOT RECONFIGURE THE ZOOM TO REDUCE AMOUNT OF PAPER USED!. Really, really a bad decision. Change back...or tell me how to get rid if this new Print Option Menu and go back or I just quit Firefox....quit Mozilla. (OK - I just went exploring and fond 'size adjustment' and 'print on two sides' under the options. Still pretty shitty and I am so pissed off by now, I am changing my primary/default browser and taking Firefox off my desktop, iPhone, iPad and laptop. So no reply is needed. Just pass this on to Mozilla and let them see what such unannounced changes does to their customer base. Stay safe...2021 is not looking any better than the last shitty year.

I am having trouble logging into my bank's website from Firefox. It's worked fine for several years and I have no clue what triggered it all of a sudden. Furthermore, I can log in just fine from various other browsers.

I have Google around on the issue for awhile now, and have troubleshooted several different things based on what I've Googled, such as clearing all site cookies, data, cache, etc. Also I had a pop-up blocker add-on but I removed it and that didn't do anything. Lastly, I tried completely uninstalling Firefox and re-installing it without ANY add-ons, but it still doesn't work.

Details on what happens: I go to the log in page, and I put in my user and password and click to log in, and it does nothing. It just basically refreshes the page, so the page comes back up with blank user and password fields.

Any help/ideas on the matter would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Recently a round purple icon has started appearing at the bottom of my web pages. I understand this might be related to Ghostery, but I really don't want to see it every time I open a page. Can you tell me how to make this top?

Thanks very much, Ann

Capital One suggested that I use another web Browser like Chrome. I want to stick with Firefox. Capital One's message when I try to login is, "oops we have hit a snag try again later."

I can get on if I reboot with add-ons disabled
