firefoxで右クリックで新しいタブの短縮コードが作用しない事があります

firefoxで右クリックから新しいタブの短縮コードが作用しない事があります

新しいタブはキーボードTで割り振られてデフォルトと同じです、毎回ではなくたまにTで新しいタブが開かれることもあるのですが、反応しない事が大半です、最近になってなりました、edgeやchromeでも右クリックからTを押せば新しいタブが開かれます、firefoxに問題があるのでしょうか？

この場合はどうやって解決するのでしょうか？

After Firefox went haywire every time I tried to upload a file or add an attachment to an email, I eventually found a way to "restore default settings". That fixed ONE problem but immediately caused several new ones: The "File Edit History etc" toolbar has disappeared. How do I get it back? The colours and identifying icons in the drop-down tab menu on the right have also disappeared. How do I get them back? Nowhere to recover them in Settings and no answers to the questions from Mozilla.  :-(

I've been using Firefox for Mac for oer 20 years, and have gotten two notices in the past week that my account will be closed this weekend, and all my data destroyed. As a daily user, I've assumed that I'm a member in good standing. Is this email a scam?

When I try to access https://www.apro.bid/affiliate/michael-clark-410 it just keeps retrying, blinking. It is the only site that does this. I use windows 7 Is it my system or the browser? A setting in my browser? Charles

I am still unable to create Tab Groups. I've followed the instructions on the update but it doesn't work. I'm using the latest version of Firefox with the latest version of Mac OS.

TIA

Hello Firefox devs,

First of all - great thank you for this alternative to the status quo.

So - this started some months ago and I thought Youtube implemented some sort of protection so the music sounds obviously different and worse than the original.

But now I played some MP3 files directly from the computer and then played them on VLC player.

Man, I hadn't listened music peacefully for months, because I usually listen my Youtube playlist and it sounds horrible.

Now on the VLC it sounded as it should be and it was a pleasure to listen to, while on Firefox it was s..t

Basically it skips beats, changes tempo, it's subtle but obvious and makes listening music a horrible experience.

The OS is Debian 12 - bookworm, the firefox was always the latest in all these last months, I let it update when it needs to.

It's in virtual machine, but so is VLC and there is more than enough CPU to play a song.

What could it be, is it just me who experiences this?

Thank you for your time.

I'm experiencing a consistent issue when typing Vietnamese using the built-in Windows Vietnamese keyboard (IME) in Firefox. Steps to reproduce:

   Type a Vietnamese word

   Press space after the word

   Immediately press backspace to delete the space

   Then type a punctuation mark, such as ,, ., (, ), ;, etc

   The entire word just typed is deleted immediately after pressing the punctuation key.

Notes:

   This issue does not happen in other browsers like Chrome or Edge.

   It only occurs when using the Windows built-in Vietnamese IME (not 3rd-party input tools like EVKey or Unikey).

   The bug seems related to how Firefox handles IME input, especially when mixing backspace and punctuation.

   It is very disruptive when typing Vietnamese naturally, especially in form fields, textareas, or comments.

Please look into this issue or let me know if there’s a workaround. It's been a consistent obstacle when typing Vietnamese and I don't want to use another tool just to type Vietnamese in Firefox, thank you.

I have been using Firefox on Ubuntu for over 5 years over the past few months face book does not recognize me when I sign in. Face Book ask me to confirm it is me signing in as they think it is someone trying to hack my account. They send me a code to my email I put this into face book and they let me in to my account. They ask me to change my password this i tried they would not except it as they did not recognize my web site connection. They ask me to sign by another means IE mobile phone this I tried but Face Book did not except that either. I also got a notification from MY Heritage web site this is what they sent me.

We noticed that your My Heritage account was accessed just now from a new device or location: Firefox on Ubuntu | United Kingdom If it was you and you recently logged in from a new device or a new location, all is well and you can ignore this notification. Note that this notification may have been sent to you due to changes in your internet connection (e.g. a new IP address was assigned to you by your provider, or a recent use of a VPN service). Can anybody help please Thank you in advance Tony

I was really excited when they introduced tab groups, but now after using them for a few weeks the option seems to have disappeared? My groups are still there, but I can't create any new ones and if I delete one, I can't get it back. I can't find anything about the groups in settings either.

Hi. There is a new feature of Firefox that bothers me. It is when I drag tabs around the top, they try to group when I don't want them to. So I go to about:config and find the "browser.tabs.groups.enabled" key and set it to false. But when I restart Firefox, the change reverts. How do I fix this so the change stays?

I've already tried going to Menu->Help->More troubleshooting information->Profile Folder->Open folder, but there is no "user.js" file there. Do I have to do a Firefox reset to fix this? I hope not...

Note that I'm pretty sure that other settings that I change do not revert when I restart Firefox. Right now, it seems to be just this one about:config setting, unless the new version of Firefox reverts all manually changed about:config settings upon restart.

Thanx in advance for any help.

I normally put the computer to sleep at night, rather than powering down (although I do that periodically). After waking the computer, and clicking Firefox open, the browser loads with the two or three tabs I last had open, and within the minute closes. There's no warning or pop-up window saying what happened. I open it again, and within the minute it closes again. This happens four times. On the fifth try, Firefox opens without the previous tabs and with just one "New Tab" showing. After that it's fine. Also, it doesn't happen if I wake the computer and let it sit for a while before sitting down.

This is an oddity that I can live with. I'm just curious about what's going on.

Thanks, Ed LeRoy

I have tried the troubleshooting described on your website. Firefox will not open to a full screen; when I try to use the application it opens, but only to a thumbnail. I cannot use the application. I have tried reinstalling, I have disconnected the second monitor (I am using this on Windows).

Everyday I answer the quizzes on PCH but for the last 3 days the images for the quizzes don't download. What am I doing wrong. I haven't changed the settings and PCH is still an exception.

I can't seem to login to Twitch with the newest version of Firefox on Arch Linux. This was a completely fresh install of Arch and Firefox with no add-ons (on two different machines). Switching user agents doesn't seem to work either.

I had to restore to install last update, May 25, 2025, and turn off auto update, because it is not compatible with GVoice. Or other G anything.

Specifically, it took 20 min. each time with all the stupid verification, for which I needed more verification, and when I did finally access G Voice, I could nor press the lock before the URL, nor any other way to enable Permissions, for sound and mic, which was now all, by default, shut off. I had to use GVoice to reach my SIM provider to find out why I showed plenty of Gigs left on my plan, yet no service for 48 hrs.

The whole verification hassle opens us up to more hacking, not less, as we get desperate, waiting to get the codes in the best of times. Also, phones often do not work, or are too slow to get the code in time. And I always have to do all this in a library parking lot, risking spying, because phone signal/internet rarely reaches us in rural areas, or is corrupted, with greedy AI taking up all the bandwidth. And cable is $50K investment, and does not work when the power is off, which due to Pacific storms, is about a total of 3 months a year. I dread having to go online for anything, and will not update Firefox until I hear some encouraging news.

Thank you all, this is still the best, lightweight browser. And at least I have people here to give me advice!
