The OS-wide feature for MacOS, text replacements does not work in Firefox. The replacements are great time-saving for me and for everyone who works with forms a lot.

This feature is the reason why I avoid using FF, my experience becomes very limited. Safari, Chrome and Opera all have this feature enabled.

Can this be enabled in FF?

In some websites I log into, password field is filling but username field is NOT.

I first reviewed this old, related post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1366874

Attached below is the console for both the username and password at psecu.com. The actual URL is: https://digital.psecu.com/apps/psecuolb/#_frmLogin

(The username is mama). I think both fields show type="text".

And that leaves me stuck. I also attached screen shots of the login page and the console of the username and password is below.

Username:

<input id="frmLogin_main_tbxUserName" kwidgettype="TextField" kformname="frmLogin" kmasterid="main" value="" class=" sknRInputLogin " autocapitalize="none" autocorrect="off" autocomplete="on" type="text" onfocus="$KW.TextField.onfocusEventHandler(arguments[0],this)" onblur="$KW.TextField.onblurEventHandler(arguments[0],this)" placeholder="Username" maxlength="30" style="text-align: left; text-transform: none; padding: 0px 0px 0px 19px; width: 100%; height: 100%;" tabindex="0" role="textbox" aria-label="Username" aria-level="1" aria-describedby="frmLogin_main_lblUsername" aria-required="true">

password:

<input id="frmLogin_main_tbxPassword" kwidgettype="TextField" kformname="frmLogin" kmasterid="main" value="" class=" sknRInputLogin " autocapitalize="none" autocorrect="off" autocomplete="on" type="password" onfocus="$KW.TextField.onfocusEventHandler(arguments[0],this)" onblur="$KW.TextField.onblurEventHandler(arguments[0],this)" placeholder="Password" maxlength="30" style="text-align: left; text-transform: none; padding: 0px 0px 0px 19px; width: 100%; height: 100%;" tabindex="0" role="password" aria-label="Password" aria-level="1" aria-describedby="frmLogin_main_lblPassword" aria-required="true">

Hi There. I'm running Firefox and Thunderbird. I have a gmail account in FF but as of this morning I was unable to send/receive messages (rejected by server). I deleted the mail account and tried to reinstall it within FF (smtp), but no go, I get a splash page from google asking to sign into google - that times out - although I was already signed into Google.

In my google settings I've cleared cache, history and enabled to accept all cookies. I am able to access my gmail account directly from gmail, but not through FF. I uninstalled/reinstalled FF. What am I missing?

Thanks.

In the Page Info Window Media Tab when trying to save multiple images the Save As button is covered up by the ? help icon so when clicking on it instead of saving the images it opens up the support page. It only happens when trying to save multiple images, when saving a single image it works fine. Just wondering if it is my computer or not. I'm on a 21 mac pro 14"

When designing in Indesign, I go to Adobe Fonts.com to activate fonts that I want to use. All the font's look the same as default. How do I get the font to display on Firefox browser. Fonts do display correctly when I use Safari.

Why has this started up again? Pdf files are automatically downloading to my computer when all I want to do is look at the file. So many files that now need to be trashed after looking at them. This problem has happened in the past, but was resolved, only now I am finding it happen again. I do not want to have files saved unless I want to save them, not Firefox deciding that any file I open should be saved. I have Windows 11 & Firefox Version 113.0.1. Is there a way to revert to an older version of Firefox?

Nextflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime all say "Need to update Firefox in order to stream this, go to setting, help and update. I do all that, Firefox says im running the current version, but still unable to get any streaming platform to work. Tried Firefox save move, issue persists. Tried Chrome, works fine, no issues. So it's a firefox issue.

Issue #1) If computer is left idle for more than 15 min. and the browser is left open with some tabs when resuming to use the browser, it does not load pages any more and eventually times out. This forces to have to restart the browser each time after some idle time.

Issue #2) images do not load or only first couple of images load and then rest of the page images do not load. This is not related to security setting and so on since I have done all the obvious trouble-shooting steps already.

These are very frustrating issues and I am very close to switching off of Firefox.

This message is to developers of the Firefox browser...

Is there any effective way to disable this stupid updates that breaks what you do and force you to restart?

I've tried to disable by about:config or any other settings. Not working...

Always forces user to restart. I wanna say as Linus said to NVIDIA to community!..

FF version is 113.0.1

Please SOLVE THIS STUPID issue.

I use Firefox on Ubuntu 22.04, and my system has 16GB RAM. I have been facing this problem of frequent crashes for the past few months. By crash, I mean not Firefox alone, but the entire system. I use several apps and run several processes that require great compute resources, often simultaneously. I have narrowed the cause of frequent system crashes to Firefox alone; the system rarely crashes when I use other resource-heavy apps. Due to this, I have to restart my system several times a day.

Before this problem arose, I would use multiple tabs (including YouTube, often 10+, close to 20) and multiple windows (2+). Such usage very rarely caused crashes, which is why it is surprising that Firefox now causes the entire system to simply hang sometimes with as low as 3-4 tabs.

I have disabled Hardware Acceleration, refreshed Firefox, even tried disabling WebGL. I also tested it after removing all add-ons, but it still didn't help (I use only 2 add-ons: a simple wide-spectrum ad-blocker and an EPUB reader). Even in troubleshoot mode, Firefox will cause my system to heat up, although it takes some more effort to crash in this case. I use one of the standard themes, so it could not have been the problem.

Many people report Firefox crashes, but in my case, Firefox causes my entire system to crash. How do I fix this issue? Thank you in advance.

bold textI am a longtime Firefox user and it has been excellent. Firefox is my browser. For approx. the last 2 weeks it takes about 10 to 15 minutes to load my outlook for my emails. I have reloaded Firefox and the problem remains. I downloaded Google Chrome and set it up as my browser and Outlook and my emails load instantly. What is the problem with Firefox?

Firefox is my main browser. I use Network Solutions for web mail. I use their portal to view email, maintain my appointments in their calendar, maintain my contact list, etc. Recently, the calendar function has stopped showing my appointments. When I use MS Edge browser with the NS portal the appointments show up. When I open a private window in Firefox and go to my NS mail account the appointments show up in the calendar. Just not in a public (?) Firefox window. NS tech support sent me to Firefox to resolve this.  ???

When I try to upload a file through Google chat, Firefox crashes on the image preview of a file that is selected. When I restart Firefox, it uploads fine on the first attempt. If I continue to upload images, Firefox crashes again. This has been happening over the past few weeks. I'm using a mac desktop and Firefox version 113.0.1 - is there a way to disable the image preview when uploading files? Thanks in advance.

Why are we suggesting passwords and not saving them to my browser? Do you think im going to remember dsfhkjg32iuyt4t3#$%$@? I mean do you really expect someone to remember that????? ?????????? like really??????

Hi, I have a mac and I use the userchrome.css file to place the close tab button on the left side of each tab (visible on both active and inactive tabs). This code has worked fine for several years. However, this past week it has stopped working. Looks like the problem started with the upgrade to version 113.0.1. Besides the close tab "x" now showing up on the right(annoying on a mac), the last tab has no close tab "x" at all. To close it, you have to add another tab, which you can't close either.

I would appreciate any suggestions as to how to fix this.

Also, websites have been loading much slower than usual.

Thank you for your help. Debbie

I've been searching for a way to hide the tab bar and reclaim that space. Some sources on the web set to change some settings in about:config and edit userChrome.css, but this did not work. This question links to an add-on to do it, but the link is broken:
