After updating Firefox yesterday, when I use the search bar, switching between my custom search engines can only be done via clicking on a drop down menu at the left end of the search bar and selecting one with the mouse cursor. Previously, I could select my preferred search engine by using the up or down keys to cycle through them while typing a search, then hitting enter when the one I wanted was highlighted. Having to switch from keyboard to mousepad while typing a search is really annoying, I found the old way much more convenient. Is there a way to revert this, and put the search engines back at the bottom of the search suggestions, where I can access them with arrow keys?

Also, when I search now, the search stays in the search bar instead of changing to a URL, and I have to click a little internet globe icon at the right end of the bar for it to show the URL. This is also kind of annoying. Is there a way to turn this off, and just set it to show the URL every time?

How the heck is there still no way to modify Firefox hotkeys without an extension? Firefox must have updated because I can no longer use Command-Option-Up/Down to navigate between servers on discord.com. Instead those keys are now reserved by Firefox for navigating tabs (which seems superlative, there are already MULTIPLE other hotkey combos for switching tabs.) Absolutely bonkers that there's no user-friendly way to modify these hotkeys.

Why on earth would you remove the ability to select move multiple tabs anywhere in an open window browser???? Until recently, I could select the first and last tab, hold shift and move them anywhere I chose. Now that feature doesn't work at all. It duplicates one tab or I'm given a choice to move to the front or last of all open tabs! Please give me the feature back!!1

I'm trying to enable autofill for payment methods but autofill is not working. I've checked the correct box under Preferences --> Settings --> Save and fill payment methods. I do not need the device to require sign-in to do this. But when I try to fill in from my saved payment methods, nothing fills in. I've restarted Firefox and my MacBook Pro, but it still doesn't autofill the payment methods. This has worked in the past, but it's not clear why it's not working now even if I have followed all the correct steps. Please help! Thanks

I only discovered the tab groups function within the last few weeks, and upon finding, I moved dozens of open tabs into organized groups. On using the feature, I noticed the ability to save and close groups and that I could recover those closed groups by using the arrow in the browser toolbar.

When I got to my PC this morning, my desktop had restarted or hibernated or something; when I started it up, Firefox was open which is unusual as I don't have Firefox set to open on startup - usually so I can restore sessions after crashes. All of my previously open tabs were open, but none of the closed, saved tab groups are visible. I cannot find any of the dozen or so closed tab groups and it appears I've lost easily hundreds of tabs.

I tried looking at the session backups but it seems because Firefox was open on start, it overwrote the previous session data. Is there any way to recover those saved groups or am I SOL?

I am not sure why every time I go to print something, it takes the color blue and turns it gold. I have used other browsers like Edge to print and it does not do this, only while I am using firefox. I have tried to set the color management mode to 0 and to 1 and neither of these options have worked. Is this a problem with the newest update or is there a setting that I am missing?

hello! Firefox began timing out and needed to be force quit starting yesterday; I didn't think anything of it until I reopened and Firefox continued to be unusable. It's not frozen or unresponsive, but it won't load pages or complete actions. I can interact with the browser and settings, etc, access about:crashes, but I can't actually submit crash reports; it just loads endlessly. When I close the program, it won't complete that action either; the app remains running in the background until I force quit.

Things I've tried:

Restarting the computer Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox Clearing the cache

Other browsers work fine, as does the rest of my machine and internet. I'm submitting this using Safari because I can't navigate here using Firefox, but would really prefer to get back to my browser of choice.

Attached are the IDs of a few of the crashes I've had; they remain unsubmitted, sorry, because (as outlined above) I'm not able to complete the action when submitting them.

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to indianfrro.gov.in . If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the web site, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

If you are on a corporate network or using antivirus software, you can reach out to the support teams for assistance. You can also notify the web site’s administrator about the problem.

I do not know what to do for the best

I have autoconfig.js set up to run my own js file, see below. The intention is to change the keyboard shortcuts (shame that it's so difficult😃). It worked until a few weeks ago. Now it only partly works. C+J is fine. The other two succeed in deleting the existing command, and the shortcut key does nothing. Any ideas please?

// C+J = open downloads var element = document.getElementById('key_openDownloads'); if (element) {

 element.setAttribute('key', 'j');
 element.setAttribute('modifiers', 'accel');

}

// C+D = Duplicate tab var element = document.getElementById('addBookmarkAsKb'); if (element) {

 element.removeAttribute('command');
 element.setAttribute('oncommand', "duplicateTabIn(gBrowser.selectedTab, 'tab')");

}

// CS+N = move tab to new window var element = document.getElementById('key_undoCloseWindow'); if (element) {

 element.removeAttribute('command');
 element.setAttribute('oncommand', 'gBrowser.replaceTabsWithWindow(gBrowser.selectedTab)');

}
