Good day.

My use case is the following. I use Firefox Developer Edition for developing websites. Usually the development happens on a certain part of the page. Most of the times it is not on the top of the page, so you have to scroll down to it.

Sometimes when the page is refreshed a jump to the top happens. So then I need to scroll down again. It takes a lot of time and concentration away if it happens dozens of times a day.

It often happens after I did some changes to the files on the page. It usually does not happen when I refresh the page a couple of times (when I purpously want to reproduce this problem).

I did try running Firefox in Safe mode, but it didn't help.

What can be done to fix this problem on my side? Is this a bug in Firefox itself?

When I have FF open, then close all windows but still have FF active, I hit CMD-T or CMD-N to bring up a new tab or window and nothing happens. I repeat, repeat, repeat and still nothing. THEN if I click on the FF icon in my dock, all the tabs and windows appear in a cascade of windows or tabs like bam, bam, bam.....

This happens on two MacBook Pros around 2016 vintage. This is a new behavior this week.

Sling tv streaming warns that other browsers except Chrome, Edge, or Safari may be problematic when using their service. I updated Firefox and then attempted to access Sling, video was fine but no audio or at best audio was intermittent. Both Chrome and Safari are working fine, but I would much rather use Firefox for all my browsing ! Are there any plans to create a fix for this?

Used to be very practical with add-ons in the toolbar (cf 1st screen), but with the update they are not here anymore (cf 2nd screen). I don't want to click on the extension button for those addons I'm always using, I want to revert to having the buttons in my toolbar !!!!!!!!


PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT TO GO TO CUSTOMIZE TOOLBAR WITHOUT TESTING IT YOUSELF AND INCLUDING A SCREENSHOT !! This does not work, there are no buttons to drag and drop for the addons.

So, I'm a designer and UX Designer, and recently I installed Ubuntu and Firefox Developer. If you're a UX Designer you probably know about Figma.

The problem is that Figma uses the Alt key to show the distances between objects. But Firefox activates the Menu Bar every time I press it.

Can I remove the Firefox menu bar Alt shortcut?

hullom snce several days I canot login to my nextcloud anymore, not with any of my different user names. Nextcloud will show a login screen, I can enter my credentials, Firefox will try to connect and after a while present me a fresh empty login screen. On one of my other macs (same OS) Firefox does login ok. After deleting Firefox app and reinstalling Firefox again, the behaviour does not change. Also deleting the stored login names and passwords does not help, deleting a bunch off cookies neither. What else could I do?

Is there a way that I can recover my New Tab page setup (just the new tab page) from a Macrium Reflect backup of my OS disk?

when I click the web address bar and the drop down opens up with commonly visited site a series buttons appear under it that I would love to delete from the face of the earth, as far as I can tell there doesn't appear to be any setting to turn them off and help topics are expectantly useless. For the love of god don't come and tell me you've added an idiot feature that I have no control over.

_05: chrome browser network panel after refreshing 5 times domContentLoaded: 328ms

_06: firefox browser network panel after refreshing 5 times domContentLoaded: 1880ms (5.73x slower)

the problem seems from that the request from firefox gets 200 wheras chrome gets 304 unmodified, which explains the huge speed difference in reloading.

Hi guys! Currently I'm working on a project which renders video with webGL. The result works on all browsers as expected but not with Firefox vers 109 for Apple Silicon devices (m1, m2) - the video animation is just lagging,it takes cpu usage up to 160% and the video itself is stretched. Comparing to that Chrome takes 22%, Safari 14% of cpu usage. It's just regarding to this devices, it works fine on Microsoft so I think it's a browser bug regarding to osx verision. Could someone pls help me with that or have a look over?

I used Speedtest by Ookla. When the broad band was installed, the technician did this without a problem. Today when I tried I was taken to an installation page. After I used the SpeedTest, then my main page was gone and instead I have a bar of Firefox selected options. I've tried to find how this is done so I can set it back but I can't find it. Please help.

Just recently My patient portal at Baylor Scott and White was changed. When I log into the portal everything is fine until I try to see messages from Doctor. It at this time the crash begins, sometimes the screen goes black then White and black again repeating a few times, the the computer locks up and I have no mouse or keyboard and no error option or anything.. I have to power down computer to fix where everything is ok... The tech at Baylor Scott and White said its at my end because no one else has complained and suggested I use Chrome, which I did and it works, I can retrieve messages without crashes??

I started having this issue after a crash with an update to version 103 after restart. And since then when I open firefox in full screen (mac) and open a youtube video and click the picture in picture mode, firefox will just open a open/popup a new picture in picture in full screen mode instead of a smaller picture in picture window. I'm not sure if this is a macos bug or firefox.
