Hey,

I'm looking for a shortcut/hotkey to focus the page.

The best I found is "Move to Next Frame", which is F6. When having the URL bar as focus, and no bookmark bar open, this will focus the page.

I have two questions here: - Is there a better way to focus the page? - If not, how can I remap F6 to a more usable hotkey?

I have found some threads with workaround like tabbing 2-3 times until the page is in focus. I'm looking for a single shortcut, having to press a key multiple times kinda defeats the purpose of a shortcut.

I have found information on how to remap hotkeys with either extensions or autoconfig, but I can't find which key I have to change. Extensions don't seem to include this key.

For autoconfig, I looked through view-source:chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml and the Browser Toolbox to find this shortcut, but with no success. Maybe I looked at the wrong spot, maybe not all shortcuts are listed there?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Subject: Urgent: Request for Account Restoration

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Ray Bann, and I recently experienced an issue with my Firefox Nightly browser after a system restore on my personal computer earlier today.

Following the system restore, my Firefox Nightly browser was successfully restored; however, to my dismay, all of my meticulously organized bookmarks and passwords from my Firefox account disappeared. Despite numerous attempts, I was unable to retrieve them using the Sync feature, even after multiple logins.

I kindly request your assistance in restoring my Firefox account to a previous state, preferably within the last 2-3 days, to ensure the recovery of my bookmarks. The information related to my account is as follows:

   Display Name: Ray Bann
   Primary Email: rayalessandrobann@gmail.com
   Secondary Email: ravasz.laszlo1987@gmail.com

If additional information is required to process this request, please let me know, and I will promptly provide any necessary details.

I understand the importance of data security and appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Thank you for your assistance in restoring my Firefox account.

Best regards, Ray Bann

In MacOS preferences I made a shortcut for Firefox for sharing a bookmark to Notes. I have several tabs open. I switch to some tab and press my shortcut. Everything happens just like when I share manually – either via the File-Share menu bar or by right-clicking on the bookmark. The bug when using my created shortcut is that it still only shares one tab – the first one. Clicking on another tab and pressing the shortcut again shares the first one, not the newly active one.

In Brave browser same thing works fine. Firefox + Waterfox tried and tested and the same bug.

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi,

How safe are bookmarks in general within my account?

If a file path is bookmarked does this provide file mgmt and hierarchy exposure to internet/ai hacking or use? - If feasible, would that mean every folder and file within the directory path is compromised? - Does this change if hyperlinks? Easier / harder?

Thanks for your assistance! Jared

Hi, I have been quite satisfied with Firefox for a while, but these problems are ruining the experience for me. 1. The tabs keep refreshing when I switch apps or even when I stay on the browser, just by changing tabs and leaving it open within the session. I usually open a lot of tabs, and this has nothing to do with the inactive ones. 2. I used to be able to play YouTube videos in the background or with my screen off on the Firefox browser on my Android phone without problem. But now the audio keeps pausing and doesn't continue to load, even closes itself after a few seconds of loading. Nothing i've done, including downloading the video playback fix addon, clearing cache, restarting phone and turning off and on data saving mode/background data permission, has fixed this problem.

Hello,

Safari has a menu option to "Close All Windows" (Command, alt W).

I am curious to know why Firefox doesn't.

The only way to close-all that I am aware of, is to quit Firefox and restart. Very frustrating!

There are sub-menu functions for individual tabs and such, but no simple way to clear the browser.

(I'm on Mac OS Sonoma)

Thanks

I blamed on Facebook last release when it started to interrupt comments and edits, either attempting to reload the page, or simply hitting "back" one or 2 pages, even when I am thinking and do not touch the keyboard. Then I discovered the same feature while edited a post in X. Different sites, the same behavior. So, I removed all Firefox related controls from the touch bar, and the problem disappeared. I am not sure, was it the result of upgrade to MacOS 14.3, or upgrade of Firefox to 122, or is something wrong with Macbook Pro hardware?
