I have two computers. Both sign into the same Firefox account. Both instances of Firefox are the same version (134.0.1 64-bit).

On my main computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the first image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-42-57.png)

On the other computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the second image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-43-57.png)

How to I get both instances of Firefox to do the same thing when creating a new tab, i.e. organize the recommendations like the second image?

Hi,

I'm having an issue with Firefox (on CachyOS, but i'm pretty sure that is not relevant) when I try to hit domain with PORT number.

To be clear, I have a "service" I am locally hosting on a more widely available "domain.com" (those are examples of course...) I am using this typology to still be able to generate Let's Encrypt certs for domains (that I own) not accessible outside my network for those sub-domains, and am using therefore Pi-hole to serve the few IPs of my few "service123.domain.com"

When I use a Chromium based browser (or FF ESR v128) the only DNS query is for "https://service.domain.com:8000" is "service.domain.com" (as seen on pihole queries and in FF-ESR/Chromium DNS cache), whereas FF 135 there is first a "service.domain.com" (righfully answered by my local DNS), and then a second query "_8000._https.service.domain.com" is sent, but my pihole doesn't seem to recognize (and shouldn't have to interpret anything concerning ports), so it sends it to upstream DNS (which are unable to answer)

I have disabled DoH, and every extensions. So I am really lost on what as changed in FF that would explain this, or if it's a pihole config problem (weirdly only affecting FF 135+ ...)

Feel free to ask anything, I may have omitted important info. Thanks in advance

Hello all,

Ever since an update to Firefox from a few weeks ago, I have been having issues with white backgrounds displaying incorrectly in Firefox. I have attached two identical images from the NYT homepage: the first is a screenshot from Chrome and the second is the same exact image but taken from Firefox.

I have also attached another screenshot taken in Firefox from REI.com. You'll see that it's not necessarily just a white background that is causing the weird blue color. It also happens in products images being displayed incorrectly.

I figured this might be a Firefox website appearance setting, but I have played around with it and selected many different permutations and I haven't been able to solve this issue. I have also tried refreshing Firefox, using Firefox in Safemode, disabling all of my plugins/themes, etc. and nothing was fixed.

I am pretty sure this isn't a system wide issue or a monitor issue because these websites are being displayed 100% correct in Chrome and Edge. This is only an issue in Firefox.

Can someone advise?


Thanks,

DC

Hi, I have been experiencing issues lately with Firefox. Attempting to install it often comes up with errors suggesting file corruption but I eventually got it to install. However, now it crashes as soon as I open it and in the past before a system reboot on my PC, Firefox tabs crashed very often. I'm trying to diagnose the issue. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox multiple times.

As my laptop is currently experiencing other issues, if there's a specific driver that is causing trouble, it'd be great to figure out what's wrong and what is causing Firefox to not function.

My specs are: Asus Rog Strix G614JIR - (GPU: 4070RTX, CPU: IntelCore i9, SSD 1TB, 32GB RAM).

I have attached the most recent crash. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

I am one of those old-fashioned guys who has a title bar on the main window, and inside this (from top to bottom) a menu bar (File/Edit/View etc), then the current set of tabs, then the address bar.

I can click in the address bar and the caret appears, but the moment I start to type anything to edit the URL the address bar jumps up to to the top of the window, covering up the menus and tabs, with a menu of suggested URLs that at times covers most of the rest of the screen. Some images attached to show what I mean.

This started in a recent-ish release -- it didn't use to do this.

How can I prevent this behaviour, so I can just edit a URL in place the way I used to without the address bar jumping to the top of the window?

Currently using FF 135.0 (64-bit), Windows 11.

I did a clean install of Windows 10 on a larger SSD for my laptop. After installing my Bitdefender AV and firewall software I installed Firefox latest version. I cannot login to sync my account. My email address keeps getting rejected with the message: “Mistyped email? *name@domain*.com does not offer email”. It is the same email that I have used to sync Firefox across all my devices and Win 10 PC’s. It is a domain we bought or registered for a private email service. It is the same email I used to create this account using Firefox on my iPad to make this bug report. Firefox is allowed thru the firewall, but many Windows sub programs are not. I did reboot several times after install with the same result. Currently not running any extensions as I haven’t tried to install them without sync. Is there some windows service or sub program I need to unblock? Never had this issue on any other device or PC when trying to sync. Any suggestions appreciated thanks!
