Firefox Support Forum

While I appreciate the fact someone took to time to translate the dev tools to another language, this feature is highly inconvenient, it make it all weird and different names I am not used to and it make it hard to explain to someone else in other language or watch toturials where they use the English version. This go beyond bad when the language is from right to left, then the all interface looks even weirder.

And as for now I am forced to go back to chrome because this make firefox dev tools impossible to use for me

A few days ago, I accidentally closed 1 window (clicked the "X" in the upper-right corner) that had 248 tabs in it, without realizing it. Since then, I've 'properly' closed Firefox (Menu icon; Exit) and reopened it again many times. I have 3 other windows open in my current session, each with many-hundreds of tabs in them (one has 1335 tabs!).

Fortunately, I have an archived copy of my entire Profiles folder from a month ago. Saving aside my current sessionstore.jsonlz4 file, and substituting the month-old one into its place, then restarting Firefox, shows me that I still have that old 'lost' window there (with all 248 tabs intact), along with the other (old) 3 windows. But I've made a lot of changes to the tabs in those other 3 windows since I 'lost' the 4th one; so I can't just use that backup of all 4 windows, going forward now. I need to recover that 4th window, into my current session.

Is there some way to make a copy of one entire window (with all its contained tabs with their titles and URLs) from one session, close Firefox, then open a new Firefox session and 'paste' those contents into a new (empty) window?

I downloaded the "Copy All Tab Urls" Add-on (by Michele Pezza), which allows me to copy that one window's 248 'lost' tabs (titles and URLs) to my clipboard. Which is fine for pasting that list into a Word document. But I can't figure out how to 'paste' that list into a new Firefox window, as properly-configured individual tabs. Or, maybe there's some other solution?

I can't be the only one who's accidentally closed a big fat window inside a multi-window session, and gone too far from the event to simply restore the whole session from a backup. Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

is there any support inside FF for S/MIME secured mail?

I´m currently a member of an organisation that have choosen to use Outlook Web App as an email client. But when using this on FF I can´t find how to install encrypted mail with S/MIME.

Is there any more people using Outlook Web App who have solved this problem?

Best regards Anders

I have Firefox set to restore sessions upon restart. Up until a week ago this worked fine. I also use pinned tabs extensively with no problem until recently. Now when I restart Firefox one of 2 things happen. Either the pinned tabs are gone while all non-pinned tabs remain, or everything launches correctly but the pinned tabs disappear one by one (in a perfect sequence) over the course of a few seconds right after startup. I am absolutely confounded by this bizarre behavior. My computer is a Win 10 Dell desktop.

Je voulais attacher un fichier photo assez lourd à un email sur mon Yahoo!-mail. Yahoo me répond d'installer Google cloud(??) ou DROPBOX J'installe DROPBOX avec un compte DrOPBOX sur mon pc Asus... Aussitôt, DropBOX commence à prendre la main sur tous les fichiers personnels de mon PC et à les copier dans un dossier "documents" dans mon YAHOO!-mail.......et, je suppose à placer tous mes fichiers dans "son cloud"(??!!)...Cela dure des dizaines de minutes...c'est tard le soir je dois arrêter en éteignant mon pc de force... Le lendemain matin, à l'allumage d emon PC, le "transfert" se poursuit ...puis à un moment donné apparaît un message me disnat que DROPBOX a trop peu d'espace pour transférer TOUS mes fichiers...et qu'il faut que je passe de la formule BASIC (gratuite!) à une formule PAYANTE...!! Là, je veux arrêter immédiatement l'exp^érience et je DéSINSTALLE Dropbox par le système ad hoc Windows etjesuppriume mon compte Dropbox........... Mais...après cela la presque totalité de mes données personnelles PC sont sur mon yahoo-mail...et donc à la dispôsition de YAHOO! comme le reste de mes production de mail...........mais surtout, il reste des milliers d'écritures DROPBOX dans le disque dur de mon PC...............et il m'est même IMPOSSIBLE dorénavant d'UTILISER mon PC car si je veux sauver n'imoorte quel fichier je dois passer par un chemin "DROPBOX"...qui m'est désormais INTERDIT...!!! ce chemin comme ceci: C\users\luc\dropbox\monPC\(desktop-E52jfn8)\documents\..............où (desktop-E52jfn8) est la griffe de DROPBOX qui ne permettra l'enregistrement de MON fichier sur MON PC ...que si DROPBOX l'autorise, si je ré-ouvre un compte chez DRPBOX..............................! Qu'enn pensez-vous chez utilisateurs et programmeurs de FIREFOX...???!

De vormgeving van Thunderbird wijzigen lukt niet meer sinds enkele dagen. Ik gebruik altijd de indeling "Vertikaal beeld". Dit was plotseling veranderd in "Klassiek beeld" en is niet te wijzigen

I believe that a web site I was looking at might have took all my data/pw.

Changed my email address to another via the Firebox Monitor, and update entire profile to be safe.  however I just want to make sure that this link, in attachment can be removed or blocked, or have I already done that.  

so confused... any help would be great.

Up until a few weeks ago, I rarely ever had problems with zooming in and out on Websites in the Firefox Browser. But as of late, zooming out no longer works.

Zooming in and out via Ctrl + Pinch does work, but it's simply horrible as it's way too sensitive and near impossible to handle.

I checked my Windows Settings as well, but the problem doesn't appear to lie there.

I'd appreciate any type of input or help.

When my Firefox browser is open and I open a saved PDF file (previously converted and saved from a Word document) it opens in the browser as a Word document. Also, Word files open in the browser. I have changed the action from the content type in the General Section under Options to use my PDF and Word 16 applications. I noticed that the content type for Word is MS Word 1997-2003, which is pretty old and not sure why that would be the content in 2020. Could this be causing the issue? This is frustrating because I want to be working within the applications themselves and not in a Firefox tab. Attached is two screenshots of the Applications in the Options General section that show all the application options.

How come I can't get pinch to zoom to a percentage to work any more? I just found out I can click the plus or minus in my toolbar to change the zoom to a certain percentage but I can no longer do it with my fingers and my trackpad. Is there a way to fix this issue?

Since December 1st 2020, I can no longer print shipping labels properly on eBay using Firefox. I can use chrome and edge with no issues but firefox is not working properly. It tries to create the same label 3 times at the same time. It creates the same label in my download and 2 as a pdf. they are all the same label. It should only create 1 label. I refreshed Firefox, removed cookies and history and still does the same thing. I print using Adobe for my labels. I also tried having labels automatically open on Firefox without adobe and that caused issues too where it would go to my downloads folder and then I would have to select the file and open it. It worked seamlessly until 2 weeks ago. I would prefer it to open the labels using a pdf extension on Firefox without using adobe and without requiring me to constantly go to downloads to select the file to open. Any help would be appreciated

The list of exceptions that I saved includes ALLOW for Session for a website that saves 5 cookies, two 3rd party cookies and 3 websites for tracking content, as listed in the Shield for the website. However, the Shield also shows that ALL of these tracking websites and cookies as Blocked, while I had to Allow them as exceptions. Otherwise, the website would not function.

Is this what the Shield it is meant to display (show ALL cookies as blocked, when in fact they are Allowed) ?

Also, is there a way to copy out, export or at least print the list of websites under Exceptions? I am concerned that somehow they are deleted (I was reading that Refresh deletes them, maybe something else does that too) and it took me quite a lot of experimentation to figure out what is that I have to allow for websites I need vs. what I can safely block, when blocking ALL doesn't do the job.

Thanks.

When I try to open a pdf file with firefox (either from online links or from local files), it opens the pdf viewer but no content is shown. The tab bar reads "PDF.js viewer" instead of the name of the pdf file. The address bar reads correctly. The tool bar of the pdf viewer is rendered, but no page is rendered. Besides the zooming, the rest of the tool bar doesn't respond to any clicking.

I get how to extract full link from Network-media only, not for youtube tho, yet, there is more complicated i guess, in this case i need there. Could you please help me?
