Firefox 111.0.1 (64-bit) Latest update seems to have altered the way the toolbar book marks work. The bookmarks do not display, even though there is a line reserved for them at the top of the window.

I'm becoming less and less likely to customise how firefox works from the default setting, because over time I cannot be certain that these customisations will disappear or become non functional.

How do I prevent firefox from redirecting to HTTPS when it can't find the HTTP website I typed into the address bar?

Background (please read) I run a website for my team at work off my local machine. It's just http, because it's local, and I don't need any fancy encryption schemes. I have no domain for it ... me and my users just type the local IP of my machine. Like this: http://10.111.111.11/myapp/login.php

To work from home, I set up a VPN tunnel thru my workplace firewall so I can hit the webserver on my local machine. If I forget to start the VPN tunnel on my remote machine and then try going to my website, I get an error message in firefox:

   Unable to connect
   An error occurred during a connection to 10.111.111.11.
   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.


After receiving this message, Firefox changes the address in the address bar from what I typed to the same thing, only with "https" instead of "http". This drives me insane. How do I force Firefox to preserve what I typed in the address bar EXACTLY as I typed it?

How can I stop firefox saving the same file twice at all while downloading? I don't know any scenario, where saving a renamed copy makes any sense. But I know scenarios, where this is deeply confusing.

I found this answer: https://support.mozilla.org/gl/questions/1365576#answer-1477483 , but it doesn't help much.

It only works if the downloaded file is not one of the type configured in "Applications" part. Action other than "save file" or "Allways ask" does ignore "Always ask you where to save files" setting.

So, is there any switch "never save renamed copies of the same file"?

I'm referring to the reply from Paul here that tried to sell us the useless floating tabs "feature". Now, several years later, there's no sign of any of this, and we still have to deal with the downsides of floating tabs.

Firefox 112 Mint Linux

The web site for my VOIP company lets me set phone numbers as "contacts" via a web form.

I started getting an error message along the lines of "Error Adding Contacts".

I restarted Firefox in --safe-mode, the site worked.

I restarted Firefox in normal mode. I then turned off each extension, one by one, refreshing the form. I ended up turning them all off and the contact form stayed broken.

What else does --safe-mode turn off besides the extensions?

Thanks.

This happens only when middle-clicking links, but not right-clicking and opening them in a new tab. It also doesn't happen when I middle-click a tab to close it.

I'm using Firefox 112 on a KDE plasma archlinux session using wayland, the system is all up to date.

I've recorded a profile of the ~10 seconds while the UI is frozen: https://share.firefox.dev/41wL4Na

While inspecting it it looks like it wait for exactly 9 seconds in a call to retrieve clipboard contents, but that's just what it looks like and I could be wrong, hope it helps!

My platform is Debian 11.6: My FireFox install is 102.10.0esr (64-bit)

I was assisting my wife in making an appointment at the US Embassy in Manila via the US Embassy website. It all worked correctly *until* I chose the appointment day and time and clicked to continue. Rather than confirm the appointment, it told me I needed an up-to-date browser that supported 128 bit encryption. Now I know FireFox does support that. The screen looked like it thought I was using Netscape!

I switched to Chrome (much to my annoyance) and the website worked. This is not the first time I have found that I have to abandon FireFox to do something when using it on Linux. I haven't been on Windows for a while, but I don't remember this problem on that platform. This is a real problem. Please fix it. There is no reason why a website should think FireFox is Netscape.

I attempted to load a video from Anaconda and got the following error: "Sorry, the video player failed to load.(Error Code: 104153)" My search of the web was not fruitful. There was a rather broad suggestion to try another browser. For the first time in MANY years i downloaded Microsoft Edge. I could then open the video from Anaconda. A couple of years ago I went from Windows to Linux because I did not like the access that Microsoft had inside my computer. I would REALLY like to uninstall Edge and go back to Firefox. I feel much more secure that way. Thanks Mike Whitney
