My previous email provider Eclipse has ceased hosting. I found how to update sync email by adding another and promoting. I can't do this as the system sends a code to my no longer exisiting email address. How to get around this. I have a gmail address, iandtryagain@gmail.com

Can I lock in my Zoom setting to 120. When I am scrolling up or down a page, My 120 zoom goes crazy. There has to be a way to lock my zoom rate to 120. I can lock in my zoom rate with Chrome. Why not Mozilla?

I've file download feature in my web application. When polling of file percentages is complete i am sending file to the client (browser) But in fire fox it downloading an .html file instead of actual file. Whereas in chrome it working as expected.

I am running 150.0.1 on Debian with Cinnamon. I set the fonts to use for Chinese to a custom fonts, where I left Latin fonts to use untouched, I found I must set Latin to use my custom Chinese fonts in order to display Chinese webpage properly, where the English fonts will get out of place, extra spacing in Apostrophe for example, "It's" will become "It 's", this is particular trouble when viewing on Youtube. But I set to use the same custom fonts on Chrome both English and Chinese displayed perfectly.

Firefox automatically creates an empty "Downloads" folder in my home directory that I don't need. My browser settings specify a different file save path. How can I stop this? I'm using Firefox 151.0.4 and Rosa Linux 13.2 (Fedora clone).

I like having the shortcuts to regular sites on the home page, but its usefulness is spoiled by every site I momentarily visit also appearing and replacing my pinned sites. This renders it basically useless. Can we please have a way of removing 'visited sites' from the shortcuts.

why did this error occur, wven tho https - only mode was disabled. and i wsa not not able to login the mathworks.com reset password webpage, i wsa able to sign in. this did not occur on firefox. i think it has something to do with hsts Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.mathworks.com/mwaccount/account/resetpassword" on this server.

Dell Optiplex desktop, Linux Mint Mate 22 OS. Currently updated to FF 150.0. For several months, this machine has failed to load bookmarks, approximately half the time. Banner message displayed advising user to load bookmarks. Closing and restarting FF usually (but not always) corrects this. Also, last month or so, bootup displays single window, even if there were two or more on previous shutdown. In settings menu, FF is set to re-open previous windows and tabs. Also on boot, this machine takes much longer to open FF than an older Dell Inspiron laptop, which is otherwise slower than this desktop. When FF icon selected in desktop, just before it opens, the tray flashes the missing extra window but it is not shown or available in the tray and does not load.

The two machines are set up identically, both in FF settings and with the same add-ons- Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin. Just looked in Synaptic of both machines and the laptop shows two FF items as installed- FF 150.0 +linuxn The FF Web Browser and FF-en locale English language pack. The desktop Synaptic shows no FF items installed (!). The laptop runs as expected, opening FF with all windows and bookmarks. Both machines received FF 150.0 via update manager.

There are certain websites that, on firefox only, display apostrophes and quotations as Russian letters. For example, on google docs, if I type "He's such a great friend" it will display уHeТs such a great friendФ. When I open the document on the app, it is normal, but I haven't been able to figure out why it does this on my computer. I use Mozilla Firefox for Fedora 149.0.2 for reference.

Kubuntu 24.04 with various Firefox iterations including 149.0.2. It happens on stand alone, snap and flatpak versions. I do not know what triggers this problem. As far as can tell it only occurs on Wayland and not on 'X'. .... After using Firefox normally for a while I first notice the problem when I can't click into the separate search box on the toolbar, then I find I can't drag the tabs around as per usual. Then, if I click on a toolbar icon it does not respond. In summary, the toolbar becomes inoperative. I do have 9 pinned tabs but I can often have many more standard tabs up before I ever notice the problem and, today, when it occurred I only had 3 additional tabs up. So, I can't tie the problem to the number of tabs.

Pourquoi ne pas proposer l'activation par défaut du VPN intégré au navigateur dès le lancement de Firefox ? Why not enable the browser's built-in VPN by default when Firefox launches?

Not sure if this is a Linux or Firefox issue, but here goes. In the past when uploading pictures for instance in Gmail I got a menu showing places EG pictures, video's etc. Example - home - pictures- cats - black cats - list of jpg's, click attach. When attaching another pic from the same folder etc it used to default to the same folder location with the list of jpg's.

With the last few FF updates that isn't the case any more, when next attaching a pic file I now have to start again from scratch EG home, pics, cats, black cats instead of click attach straight to list of jpg's in back cats.

Is there anyway I can configure FF back to the old setting please?

Hi, after updating to FF ver. 151 (Linux Mint 22.3) the container icon on my address-bar disappeared. I can still use containers by right clicking in the bookmarks drop down menu.

I cannot add much to the description. I'll make the comment that having to look into the history to find a tab supposedly at hand is inefficient and a waste of time.

Hi, I'm on Linux mint and I can't stop google calendar notifications from stealing focus from other windows. E.g. I can be typing in VSCode with firefox open in another window, and if a calendar notification triggers I'm suddenly typing in whatever tab I have open on firefox.

I've tried disabling notifications for the site, following [post] (though I don't have a padlock in my address bar, I just went to the settings manually), everything Claude can come up with on both the firefox and os level, etc. and nothing has worked.

I need the notifications to still be enabled at the calendar level (so that other devices have them), and I like having notifications in general, just the focus stealing is a dealbreaker so if I need to get rid of them on this device to end that then I'm okay with that. But really I just want to stop the focus stealing.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
