Firefox Support Forum

why, You are not saving all the log in and passwords lately. There are many that are missing in the list of save passwords. 2. Can you fix the slowness in my site and the Firefox Crashes? Thanks Teresa Scanlan-- [email removed from public]

I'm a writer who relies heavily on instant access to Dictionary by Merriam-Webster. I recently got a new laptop and the dictionary will not load. It eventually will load but in a truncated looking format that is not useful. It works fine if I use Microsoft Explorer. I have cleared my cache but it still will not load and I have no trouble with anything else. This is super inconvenient. Is there some setting for Dictionary I'm missing?

I use firefox as my browser and to operate my 3d printers web interface, on my local network

with firefox the data that the printers display is very slow to update, for example if i input a movement command of say 10mm firefox takes at least a few second to display the number that corresponds to the movement change, its definitely firefox as opening the very same machine and sending machine commands in any other browser does not result in a data lag.

I can't log in on some sites with Firefox. I've tried to use another browser (microsoft edge) and with that browser the problem is gone.. Two sites that won't let me in with Firefox is cdbaby.com and walley.se What is the problem with Firefox that I use as my ordinary browser?

At one time there was a userchrome patch which could be applied to obtain legacy-style square corners on the URL bar and the search bar. I can not get this to work despite trying several different suggestions and I suspect it may be related the the Proton redesign.

Can anyone suggest a userchrome mod to obtain the desired square corners?

Doesn't happen in Chrome, but using Firefox (started recently) when visiting articles on most websites the comments section does not appear. Copy URL and transfer to Chrome or Edge they do appear. Why? What did you change?

Goog morning,

                        I would like to point out the following issue. I have with Firefox 109.0.1 on Linux Kubuntu 22.04 a display problem on the page

https://www.lmfdb.org/NumberField/2.0.4.1

Right at the bottom is some "LaTeX code" text which is displayed in two different ways:

1) If I leave the default settings for the colors it is "p ≢3 (mod 4)"

2) If, as in my case, I set the background color as gray (to have less brightness "shot" on the eyes) and I tell Firefox to use the personal settings "always" instead it is "p ≡ 3 (mod 4) "

Note that, selecting the LaTeX text and copying it somewhere else, I get $p\not\equiv 3\pmod 4$, so the "negation bar" is actually present: I don't understand the reason of this behavior and how to manage it.

Thank you in advance, best regards.

Hi, To start exporting Firefox Password Data to a file, the "Login data of the Windows User Account" has to be entered (pls. refer to attachment). What is meant by "Windows User Account"? Thanks so much for your help. Hans - presently in Munich, Bavaria, Germany

PS: I'm using the German Version of Firefox - so I translated back to English.

Like many others, I have used Firefox for a long, long time. Today (2/14/2023) is the last straw. I installed the latest upgrade and now my Bookmarks are all gone. When I say all gone, I mean "all gone." There is no backup, no previous dates, no nothing. I tried all the suggested by Firefox in the pages of the website. No help. And this is not an isolated instance. For the past several upgrades, many such issues have occurred with great frequency.

This time, my layouts were gone, my toolbar icons were gone - not even in the "Customize" option. This is ridiculous and it is getting quite tiring. I'm not sure what the criteria is for developers, but it seems like some of the open source resources could be saboteurs even though that sounds far-fetched.

For Mozilla, it boils down to this: either stop this problem so that it doesn't repeat or I (no doubt along with many others) will find it simple enough to relocate to another browser; maybe with fewer features but absolutely with fewer frustrations and difficulties.

I would prefer that Mozilla fix the situation permanently, but I am not averse to seeking simplicity and performance.

I have recently updated Firefox and now I see red dots around links across the internet. These are not links i have visited.

My research says they are to do with accessibility. I have found a function to set the to 0 or 1 but that has not removed them.

What can I do?

firefox 109 is constantly crashing, sometimes costing meexpenses. I have submitted over 50 crashes in the past month, aand have heard nor seen any response from firefox.

How can I rectify this without reinstalling firefox, which by the way was more trouble than it was worth, as it didn't fix the crashes , but did manage to clear my bookmark menus, which was a complete pain in the arse. any help will be greatly received - if it works

I don't know how to identify this problem. WHAT IT IS: for about 6 days now I have been getting a message from my PNCBank saying unable to connect, try another browser. Previously it has worked just fine. I have not changed any information and the same crredentials work flawlessly with Chrome.

Hi everyone,

since a recent Firefox update I no longer see my extensions / add-ons lined up next to the url bar but instead grouped together under a puzzle symbol. I would like to have them lined up one by one next to the url bar as it was but I cannot find any option to change this. Could anyone help me please?

Many thanks

Today I got onto my desktop and found that Mozilla was not no longer what I was using. I don't know how it changed. I am no longer a young person but I Still have a few brain cells left, I hope. I always trusted Firefox and the reviews were always positive about their safety issues. Can I get my Mozilla back and how did it get out of my computer??? Microsoft is not Firefox, Correct? Maybe I am reading it incorrectly. I have been mostly away from day to day stuff since last fall, just to take a break, sigh! Please be kind with an answer, please.

To whom it may concern,

Quite some time ago, not sure exactly how long but at least 8 - 9 years I had an account for making "persona's" as they were called back then. Today they appear to be referred to as "Themes" to which I have made many. I can see my persona's still exist from a long time ago however, I do not know how to access that account, it requires me to enter an email address, not the account login. To my knowledge I've only ever used one email address and this is for the later account used for making themes, can you please advise how I can access my old account when they were referred to as person's ?

The login for persona's is/was KEV007

The account I use now for themes is done using my email address [edited from public] @gmail.com

I am not aware of any other email address I could possibly have used !!

Regards Kevin
