Hello, I'm trying to use the Multi-Account containers extension to enable me to login to my personal and work gmail accounts in separate containers. I'm clearly doing something very stupid as I just can't get it to work for me.

I have set up two distinct containers, one for each account and tried to log in to each and told the extension to always open each account in their respective containers. Firefox seems unable to remember these choices for the two accounts, however, and tries to open both in the same container, or at least questions the choice I have previously asked it to remember.

Can someone please explain what I'm doing wrong here, and how to make my choices 'stick'?

Thank you in advance!

Aw, dang it. I just installed the new Firefox that was announced today in an email. This is supposed to be "cleaner." Now the tab area and top of the browser window appear to be transparent. I can see what's on my desktop behind the tabs, and everything looks much more cluttered! This is not an improvement AT ALL.

Is there any way to remove the transparency from this area? I'm SO disappointed! I thought this was going to be much easier on my eyes.

I am on Windows 7.

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

Why does my address shown under "Firefox Accounts" differ from my actual address?

This is shown when I go to Firefox Accounts -> Settings -> Connected Services while signed in to my Firefox acct with my e-mail.

It shows my computer name, and underneath it the following address: Boardman, OR, United States.

I am about 1,500 miles away from Boardman, I have never lived in, nor visited Boardman OREGON, so I'd like to know how this address showed up there, and of course, how I might be able to change it to the correct one.

If this is an indication that someone or something is bugging my computer, I'd like to know that too.

Updated to version 89 and am not pleased with the visual/graphic interface changes. The tabs are very difficult to read. The new graphic layout fails to clearly identify each tab as a distinct entity or thing to be selected. The text just looks like a long string of text and in some instances of long names on a tab the text just fades away to nothingness.

Please make each tab a "distinct thing by creating a different colored edge on three (3) sides of the tab. Or perhaps have 3 levels of lightening/darkening the table to differentiate it from the background on which it is displayed.

Does the development team have a graphic designer and/or have the changes reviewed by a group of graphic designers?

Please change this please or put the user in charge of how they want it displayed.

After automatic update all my saved bookmarks is gone. All web page in istoric is gone - this is not ok

Dupa actualizarea automata am un program proaspat instalat, nu o actualizare - si nu mi se pare ok. Toate link-urile din bara de adrese au disparut si tot istoricul a fost sters - de ce?????? Aveam niste pagini salvate care acum le-am pierdut - parole care acum s-au dus si trebuie sa recuperez totul din aduceri aminte. Din start actualizarile nu ar trebui sa stearga ce aveai si sa instaleze un program "pe curat". Este a doua oara cand patesc asa ceva. Cred ca o sa renunt la browserul dvs.

translate with google translate: After the automatic update I have a freshly installed program, not an update - and I don't think it's ok. All links in the address bar have disappeared and all history has been deleted - why ?????? I had some saved pages that I now lost - passwords that are now gone and I have to recover everything from memories. From the start, the "updates" should not delete what you had and install a "clean" program. This is the second time I've suffered something like this. I think I will give up your browser.

Despite what all the articles say, I much prefer reading on my desktop to my phone, so I find it peculiar that the Firefox reading list I've got going on iOS is nowhere to be found on desktop. Seems like plenty of people have asked about this in the past. Would really love this feature to be added soon!

Hello -

As I stated in the subject line, "Cannot Stop Updated (Current) Version of Firefox From Diverting Search Engine Search to URL Pane" I have been doting over this for an hour. I have set the respective about:config settings to the recommended setting. (I forget off the top of my head what the string was at the moment) But I did as directed. Refreshed the about:config. Logged off the Firefox browser. Cleared all the caches manually. (i.e., even though I have Firefox to clear everything when I close the browser) Restarted the browser. Problem persists. I DON'T like searching out of the URL pane! I like it like it has ALWAYS been prior: Using the search engine (I currently am using Google) search pane.

I have added NO browser extensions to cause this either by the way.

A few days ago I did a Windows 10 update. Thanks Microsoft for causing me to spend SO much time trying to get things back to normal...

Now when I load a new tab and try to type in the Google search box in the center of that page, my typing goes to the url line. I want to be able to complete what I'm typing before this predictive text feature redirects me to the url line.

Is there a setting I can change to change the behavior?

New release, new problems... FF 89.0/StartPage

I don't want the search field jumping up to the URL bar when I begin typing in the middle of the screen search field !

I want the URL bar to do just the URL...

Not impressed at all with semi-transparent tabs and tweaked interface colors.

With release of the newest version of Firefox, the search function for me has moved from the search bar up to the address bar, even when I try to initiate the search in the search bar.

How can I reset so that I can conduct my searches from the search bar?

I'm aware of the functionality of the address bar, but I simply don't want to conduct my searches there, nor in the additional search bar that can be added to the right of the address bar.

The only solution that I want is to use the search bar that appears beneath the Firefox logo to conduct my searches. Please let me know whether or not that's possible and, if so, how to adjust settings to accomplish this.

Thank you for your help!
