I want to run some automation tests with the firefox browser. With this, I want to get the logs which is normally shown on the console to be redirected to a separate file. How can I do this in firefox? Google chrome has a similar functionality when you open chrome with "--enable-logging --v=1" parameters.

There are thousands of answers to this question but I can't find one that works for me. I am using a tablet computer without a mouse or keyboard so mouse click solutions and keyboard short cut solutions don't work.

I want to just tap on a link with my finger and have it open in a new window. Every time. I know I can hold on the link and get a list of options including "open in a new window" but I want to eliminate that step because my fat fingers sometimes select the wrong list item.

Any help?

Having to close and quit Firefox and reopen from Apps every day that I use it is boring. Why can't Firefox just work as any other browser does in the world so that it will just open from the dock of my Mac as and when it's needed?

I used to use Firefox for many many years and then found Google Chrome easier, however, Firefox works well with eBay so I am back, but need it to work seamlessly and not have to shut it down and remove from the Dock and reopen it from Apps on my Mac please.

Greetings,

I am assisting someone with two issues they are having with Firefox.

They are using the latest version of Firefox (all updates installed).

They are able to replicate the issues below in a new private browser windows.

The two issues remained even after creating a new clean profile.

We tried removing Firefox, renaming all the “Mozillia” settings folders at c:\Users\[username]\AppData\ to “BACKUP- Mozillia” and then reinstalling Firefox. That did not help.

These issues do not appear to be present in Edge or Chrome.


FIRST ISSUE

To check their Office 365 account email, this person uses webmail (https://outlook.office.com/mail/) in Firefox.

The Problem:

  1. 1. The person views a message in the preview window of Webmail. They scroll to the bottom of the message body.
  1. 2. They then select another message to view in the Webmail preview window. That message opens at the to the bottom of the message body (rather than at the top).

I AM NOT able to replicate this issue on my own computer running the same version of Firefox.


SECOND ISSUE

In a new message in Office 365 Webmail, the person can’t right-mouse button click or CTRL click to paste text into the new message.

They have to use the keyboard shortcuts, as suggested in the image below.

A ”Use shortcut keys” error appears (like that in the attached image)

I AM able to replicate this issue on my own computer running the same version of Firefox.

From the bit of research I did, I take it there is no way for Firefox to work with the Windows clipboard.

Is there really no way to access the Windows clipboard in Firefox?


Thank you,

Denis

There is an app of my PC to open a digital version of the USA Today paper as well as other newspapers owned by Gannett. This app has always run well on Firefox. But a few weeks ago, when selecting the option to print an article, multiple pop-up screens began displaying. It is normal for the article to display in a pop-up screen just before printing but not multiple times. And every time I print an article the number of pop-ups increase... the first time twice, the second time three times, the seventh time eight times, etc. If I open the app using Chrome this does not happen.

Hello

again after upgrade this time version 119.0.1 to version 120.0 the behaviour changed to store downloads. This time I directly modified the settings of applications, their type and which action I expect. Again problems and files are stored elsewhere. Once again modifications and it seems to be fixed.

It seems that this part of Firefox is modified too but I'm not sure. One download is still running and the file and the temporary part exists but not in the specified base directory. The other ones are working as result of my second approach.

Any other experience concerning download and where to store?

Kind regards

Hello!

Part of the reason (a small part, but part nonetheless) that I began to use Firefox was the ability to screenshare and screenshot disney+, netflix, and etc -- but after updating to 120.0, my screenshots are being blocked (as though I were on Chrome or Edge).

I am not doing piracy! I make edits and stuff. It'd be super helpful to know how to fix this, or if there even is a way.
