Firefox Support Forum

Hi, just noticed I am starting to get logs from a script called kwift.FIREFOX.min.js in the developer console. The log contains the following message: `### TIRESIAS run=1 ClassificationReport completed in 51`

Is this a Firefox issue ? Or has my browser been somehow compromised ? (log appears on all websites)

When I'm browsing articles or news stories or what-have-you on the web, I would like to be able to read the information I came from without all the distracting stuff on the sides and top (or worse, the kind of pop-ups that can't be blocked, because they are JS-generated in the same page). Article mode is great for this, but can I have it automatically enable to help prevent me from distracting myself?

3/2/20, 2:07 PM Right where you posted that question / inquiry. Users are expected to first attempt to find an answer via the Help Topics

The entry point is here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox after clicking on Help Articles > Firefox which sends you to. Frequent Help Topics. Select something there to be able to access the Knowledge Base to find an answer yourself.

Then if you can't find a suitable answer you will have the opportunity to Ask a question."

NOPE. SEE IMAGES.

I had to google it. And for the record the advice above was useless even after following the ---> "Frequent Help Topics. Select something there to be able to access the Knowledge Base to find an answer yourself." advice.

GEEEEZ NO I can waste more of my time figuring out why YouTYube Comment replies don't load, Firefox doesn't open new pages in tabs (despite being set to) and why this browser won't even quit.?

I used to use Firefox for a decade plus but stopped because it became a buggy useless piece fo software.

I am a web developer, and I think there is a bug. If I create an element and add a mousemove event to it, the mousemove event should only fire when my mose moves over the element and is over the element. In Firefox, when no mouse button has been clicked, the mousemove events fire as expected, but when the mouse button is clicked on the element and then is moved off of the element, mousemove events continue to fire even though the mouse has left the element already, and this is not correct.

How do I file a bug report?

Neuerdings zeigt die "Aktionen für Seite"-Schaltfläche nicht mehr die gleichen Aktionen wie früher an, z.B. Tab an Gerät senden, URL kopieren etc.

Wie kriege ich diese Aktionen wieder zurück? Ich benötige sie.

Not sure what I need to put in this field but I want to resolve my issue. Not sure if occurred after I updated my firefox account. But it is doing the same thing on my MAC desktop and my IPhone.

I just sent an e-mail to someone at a company that handles my finances and I immediately got an ad in my Yahoo mail from a company called BeenVerified asking if I wanted to know more information about the person I sent the e-mail to. This is very unsettling. I don't know if it is really related to Firefox, or Yahoo Mail, or the fact that I had an account with BeenVerified in the recent past which I cancelled sometime back.

Is there a possibility that the security settings within Firefox can be changed to stop such a thing?

Thank you for your time!!!

hello, i searched a bit and refreshed FF, started in FF in safe mode(currently in safe mode), shifted to work offline then shifted back, as possible solutions. No proxy is selected in network preferences. All that did was make it so whatsmyip.com now says no proxy when it said proxy in use before. it's showing las vegas as my location this time. My real location is hawaii and all my other browsers show this. The "problem" is months old. I have to verify that im not a robot regularly, and certain sites give an error 403, (iirc), but work fine with safari because it isn't using a proxy. Is it possible there is some sort of malware causing this? mac os10.12.6 FF88.0.1 (64bit)

The new base system theme for FireFox is not accessible. I cannot visually tell when one tab shifts to another. Three's not enough contrast. There's no line that marks the shift from one tab to the next. I tried countless contributor themes and they're all lacking the same feature - a physical break between tabs. Fades on text are also not accessible. Please fix this issue!

Thank you, Nanette visual deficits in Minnesota

is it possible to configure all new tabs in v89 to be the same as my homepage, which in my case is Google.com? I don't like the Firefox home because when you start to enter a search, you get thus list of visited websites etc ... which is very annoying and gets in the way of my work (not all search methodologies are the same).

Patrick thank you

Is Firefox going to issue an update fix to correct the problem with not being able to G-mail after the update occurred? I am not tech savvy so if it is something process i have to figure out I guess I will need to switch to Safari. i don't want to do that as I have been with Firefox almost since it started.

After this update to 89, page I'm on magnifies to 500% without warning. This keeps happening and I don't know what I'm doing to make it happen. Very frustrating when you're playing online bridge and suddenly, you can't see the cards. How do I fix this? ( yes, I can go to view and revert to normal. But why do I have to do this at all?)

I just installed version 89.0, and I would swear that my top bar went from one bar (containing the tabs, the address line, home button, fwd and bk arrows, etc) to 2 bars (the top bar containing the tabs and the bottom bar containing everything else). Is there a way to put everything on one bar?

Subject says it all. "How to revert to 'browser.tabs.ontop=false' functionality in Firefox 89.x?" I hate the Proton layout where tabs are now positioned at the top. I want to revert to what I had before — via an add-on, I think — because the new style creates visual dissonance. I HATE the new style. I want a layout that does not do my head in. I do not care that someone(s) in the development team thinks tabs.ontop is better; it is not better for me.

NY Times now won't load images (there's now a hold-to-see button; image & headlines vanish when you let go) on either side of the firewall & YouTube blacks out their link icons & the right column recommended / loaded-for-sequence play videos on the right column whether you're signed-in or not. Background images are now blacked out on some sites. None of this ever happened to me until I upgraded to FF 89.

Why is this? How do I stop it?

The array of Mac settings, FF settings, site settings is dizzying as we all know, which makes sorting out where the problem might lie a bear w/o help. Things worked great through 88. I allowed FF entree to simply install each new version. No prob. Now this. 89 is clearly a complete overhaul -- I've seen scores of comments from folks left aghast at these changes with no clear, comprehensive tutorial of 1) what exactly FF did & changed, 2) why FF did it & most importantly, 3) how to return which sections / settings to what you wanted & felt comfy with & which you're just stuck getting used to. Configuration ability is a huge aspect of computer living. That FF info alone would have lessened the heat I'm afraid you've been taking.

Anyway, back to mine... any clue as to how to reset whatever it is that needs resetting to drop this blockage? Many thanks for the assist!

Hi,

since the latest version of Firefox I have a problem that tabs are not going to be restored when closing just the window. On Mac closing the window means pressing the red bulb in the top left corner, which actually keeps Firefox running in the background. I know that it was different in previous versions. There the last open tabs were reopened when creating a new first window. Now sessions are only restored when Firefox is shutdown explicitly (CMD+Q) and then restarted. Option for session restore is set. I tried to fix that by using the addon Tab Session Manager, however, this is not the behavior I'm used to. I also deleted my old profile (all my urls, etc. are gone now ... :( ), no effect.

Anyone know if something has changed for sessions? Or is it just me having such a problem?

Regards, Thomas
