Firefox Community Forum

I seem to have been using Firefox for so long, that I’ve forgotten some of the basics. I have two Apple systems. An M1, 2020 MacBook Pro and an Intel Mac Mini. Due to issues with the MacBook Pro I needed to reformat it and am slowly adding all my applications. When I added Firefox, logged in and entered the confirmation code and synced my settings none of my extensions appeared in the menu bar (please see the screenshot as to how they appear on the Mac Mini). So the question I have is what do I need to do to get them there on the MacBook Pro.

I'd like to share some feedback as a long-time admirer of Firefox. While I consider it the best browser available, the primary reason I recently switched to Edge is the lack of a critical extension that is exclusively available on the Chromium platform. I am confident that if Firefox implemented compatibility with Chromium extensions, it would be poised to become the world's leading browser. Additionally, the vertical tabs feature is exceptionally well-designed. I would strongly encourage the team to consider setting it as the default layout.

Hello. What the hell came out when I was watching the video on YouTube? I don't know this site and I don't visit anything except Pornhub. What could this be connected with?

I posted it as it came to me in the original, below I made an automatic translation in Google for you:

Hello,

My university requires me to logon to use campus services every 24 hours. Upon expiration of the logon credential after the 24 hour period, a logon window will prompt to re-enter credentials. The problem is that it will continue to prompt log in with new pop up windows every few minutes so if I don't log in, for example, over night, I'll wake up to hundreds of log on window pop ups. This creates system wide slowdown due to memory resources being maxed out. I can't enable universal pop up blocks as the systems I require use pop ups and having to open each pop up manually does work in my workflow. Any solutions? Thank you!

Its not a new issue that I am raising but facing this issue many times just could not get the time and was not sure why it was happening. So, I use Firefox's Container Extension and logged in to two different accounts from both the containers. So, if am closing the browser and have not closed the tab that has the logged in account attached it would be log me out the next time I open the browser. In fact, it logs sometimes log me out of the account that is open in the other container. Although there's catch in it, if I rather closing the tab I put all of them in a group and close the group and open a new and then close the browser then everything would be fine but if somehow I miss it, its certain that I am going to be logged out for sure. Sometimes, in some of the sites, last time as far as I can remember I have been logged out of all the accounts. I don't its something to do with firefox or extension but just wanted to raise the issue.

The True Key extension from McAfee cannot be installed on Firefox. I have the latest updated version of Firefox 133.0.1 64 bit on my desktop Dell computer running Windows 11 Pro. When I try to install the True Key extension, a message pops up advising me that the extension cannot be installed due to a Firefox policy violation. I have reported the issue to McAfee for their action. Photo of the pop up message is attached.

All of my addons are disabled and won't re-enable!

They all say "addon name" could not be verified for use in Nightly and has been disabled. See attachment clipboard00.jpg

If I try to install an addon from the recommended extensions settings (for example "return youtube dislike ") I get a message bubble stating "The Addon downloaded from this site could not be installed because it appears to be corrupt. {OK!}" See attachment clipboard01.jpg

The message above about addons appearing to be corrupt happens if I go to any of my current addon pages and try to redownload them.

Is it possible that every single add-on I had has been simultaneously disabled because it is "corrupt" or the sign-on could not be verified? Is it due to my old operating system (El Capitan)? If that's the case, I will have to stop using Firefox on my old iMac and use it on my MacBook Air, a device I really don't like because of the keyboard.

Shortly after upgrading FireFox, whenever I try to go to a website, like PayPal or my bank or anything else, I immediately get a large Ad/site for something frequently related somehow.

Like my bank I will get something suggesting an online bank, or ways to make banking easier. It will be a large window, covering my original window. I have to exit THAT site to get to the one I want.

It is a separate window, I cannot just X it out, I must shut down that window. Then the window that I actually want will be beneath it.

I can't figure out how to fix it.

Moderator note: This question has been edited to correct the formatting.

I have added extensions from the Firefox store, an element remover extension, and there is no option to pin it to my toolbar when I click on the gear icon. I want all of my extensions to be added to the toolbar.

Last night, firefox just disabled all my addons and all attempts to reinstall any failed with a red warning that everysingle one I had or new to add failed. I tried a few suggestions I found online like refreshing, clearing cash, restarting, but nothing worked.

I have a vwersion 88 (and some change) running on a windows 7 computer.

Any wisdom is highly appreciated.

If I won't be able to fix this, I'll just move on to a different browser after using it everywhere for so many years and it will be sad

I just downloaded firefox for the first time because Chrome disabled uBlocker. I have added uBlocker and 1Password as extensions, but neither of them are working on any webpage at all. I also can't pin extentions. I have restarted firefox and my computer several times. What do I do?
