Firefox Community Forum

Now there is no "other" category for topic of question. This concerns display, layout, and functionality.

Having a huge problem with Firefox recently. It looks and behaves like Microsoft type display, security, and function all around has been superimposed on Firefox. Every time I need to do something online my effort is first redirected to trying to fix configuration problem on Firefox.

It is bad enough to have to do battle with windows 11 to config the layout and display so that it is functional instead of going from one screen to another and another when there is an issues that needs configuring, which always then requires a search and fixing it in Microsoft registry (if possible). Now that is happening with the Firefox display, layout, and functionality which requires a search try to find a page where some kind soul has provided a fix for FF via about:config (if possible).

My brower updated to 136.xx in mid-march after I had already disabled auto update. However, have not had problems until recently, so it seems to be something the microsoft system has started doing to compromise the configured functionality of Firefox. It is no impossible to update or change passwords because "microsoft security" has taken over. Did Microsoft buy controlling interest in Firefox, or what.

Today The layout has started being a problem too. Very elementary without features, with huge words and images although I have changed nothing in Firefox. It is as dumbed down and tedious as Windows 10 when it was brand new. I use a desktop and I really don't want it to look and behave with the limits, and appearnace of a large sized mobile phone screen.

No Firefox update since mid March is showing, however something is interferring with the Firefox display, layout, and functionality. I can only guess it is the Windows 11 OS . . .

Is there a way to protect Firefox from Microsoft meddling with the Firefox configuration?

I have not yet tried to stop enhanced security in each website that is a problem (though most of them currently are, not simply individual websites). Perhaps that is the problem . . . at this problem it needs to be universally disabled if that IS the problem. All the additional security being piled on is simply hoops to jump through for users. We all know it does not stop the pros who are intent on hacking as a team sport. I really do not want to have to fool around signing to a Firefox account, and getting a code to be able to complete the signin to be able configure the brower to simply access the internet.

Starting to think FF, including support, is being managed and responded to by A.I. - which always ends up being a programmer problem that creates the limits. Intentional or not is the question.,,,,

Hoping some kind souls have found solutions, or locations to solutions they are willing to share.

bold text WHY THE FOOK DOES NOT MOZILLA BOOKMARK SYNC NEVER WORKS???

Lately, mobile firefox has messed up everything. If i look at bookmarks, theyre mostly there, but arrangement is nonsense. Not alphabetical, not in any order. just thrown in randomly into bookmark folder it looks like. VERY HARD to find any bookmarks.

Bookmarking stuff on desktop, then going to phone and trying to sync bookmarks, having to log out and relog in to mozilla sync for about 10 times on both mobile and desktop, and at some point it randomly might sync bookmarks, but if it does, it also messes them up. and impossible to find anything in bookmarks.

Seems almost like someone took a bookmark files in hand and shuffles them a lot, and then placing back, to mix up their order totally.

WHY?

Ive been using mozilla for years and years now, but lately in past 2 years, mozilla, especially mobile version, is NON WORKING PIECE OF CRAP...

So fed up with this issue im too freaking tired to explain it better. SYNC DOES NOT WORK, AND WHEN IT DOES IT MESSES UP EVERY BOOKMARKS ORDER, PLACING OLDEST AS NEWEST AND SECOND OLDEST INTO MIDDLE PART, NEWEST INTO SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN, scrolling trough all 100 bookmarks to find the latest one you just added, makes no sense whatsoever.

I cannot open the find on page toolbar. No matter if I use the ctr+f shortcut or click "find on page" in the menu, the toolbar with the text field doesn't come up. I checked and the shortcut works fine in other apps. I tried restarting firefox in the troubleshoot mode - the problem persists. I'm on the latest version of Firefox (138.0.1) and running Windows 11.

Hello. Idk how this happened, but my bookmarks have quadrupled. Idk why I bookmark so much, but I had about 40 folders for bookmarks, until I now found I have 160. There's 4 of every folder. How do I clean this up? I know Edge has a "delete duplicate bookmarks" button. But in Firefox, I can only find add-on extensions that claim they can clean out duplicate bookmarks, but having tried 3, I've found none to work. Any suggestions?

So I'm new to Firefox, and I added some shortcuts to the main tab, using the "+" button. But then after a few minutes it disappeared, when I wanted to add more. I set 4 rows of shortcuts and I have a lot of space left for them. What do I do to bring this button back? I tried deleting a shortcut but it didn't appear.

I use to be able to integrate my excel calendar and my wife's. Entries were different colors and changes on my computer showed up on my Ipad. Now I have my calendar but I can't find hers. Does she need to make a change on her excel as well?

good afternoon I am having issues with my Imac OS 10.15.7 Catalina. I am continuing have to put a new password every time i wane to use TVNZ+ on my imac and ipad. Please advise what i need to do? Regards John

This 404 Not Found message only started happening about 4 weeks ago on my Imac. I can't search anything without getting this message. Very frustrating. and I have to go to Google and have no problems Any ideas? Mozilla/Firefox Program up to date

When I used a VPN I got this message

   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

How do I check?

Or does Mozilla have a vpn I can use?

Thank you Greg

I am signed-in to my Firefox sync on my work and home computer, including syncing add-ons.

I was testing limited add-on installation to approved add-ons in our enterprise on my work computer and inadvertently removed all of my extensions. Without thinking it through I performed a manual Firefox sync on my work computer, which I fear has synced the extension removal to Firefox sync (the opposite of what I wanted to happen).

When I got home I immediately removed add-ons from Firefox Sync, fortunately it seems before any changes synced to my home computer. So I have all of my original add-ons on my home computer, with add-on sync turned OFF.

What's the easiest way of restoring the extensions to my work computer from my home computer? If I enable sync of add-ons on my home computer, will it

1. sync my good add-on configuration from my home computer to my work computer, or
2. sync my bad add-on configuration from my work computer to my home computer?

Hello,

I can open up my posteo.de account, and I can see all of my emails. However it is not possible to open up and view an Email, a double click has no longer any effect. I re-installed firefox, this had no effect on my problem. I then completley deinstalled my MX Linux and installed KDE neon. A new firefox installation didn't solve the problem. Just to check, I installed Brave and I can open my Emails without any proble,- I would be greatful for any help!

Whenever I log into QuickBooks Online, I get two popup messages about Firefox/Mozilla wanting me to set up a passkey in Hello Windows. I do not want to do this and cannot figure out how to make it stop asking me. I already have MFA on QBO. This just slows down the login process.

Hoping someone has a solution.

I have a Mac Air and it is up to date. and I use Firefox browser which is up to date, but I suddenly cannot access a website to which I have a subscription which is paid up through November. The website is 'Mypilatestime' and now when I try to access it, it states 'forbidden' and is blank. I can access it on Google Chrome but Firefox is my preferred browser. Why can't I access it as usual? Please send a fix ASAP!!
