Firefox Community Forum

I have a setting that keeps some videos from appearing and playing i.e. on yahoo.com - I can't figure out what setting it is!!! Maybe it is an extension?? An add-on??? Suggestions please.

Thank you -

Can you tell me how to increase the size of the tabs once they are pinned? I would like them to be wider so that you can actually see them. There is a whole community devoted to this but they require you to do coding or something. Surely with as many people are asking about this online, you have a way to do it. Please let me know how to change the size. Thank you

I have Mozilla accounts for my personal email AND my work email. I wanted to work from home, so I tried to login with my work email and a warning came up that my bookmarks etc would get merged. I do not want this, but couldn't find an option to just switch accounts. Is this possible?

No doubt I had something to do with the (fancy font uppercase in bold) B appearing in my Firefox header line as the first and left-most character (image attached). Anyone know the source for this and how to shut it and anything else it does off? I like many others I have read commenting about unwanted things thru the PC years that have a disdain of things that sneak through uninvited.

The other thing so far as I know had nothing to do with Mozilla or Firefox but I'll mention it in case someone has an idea. A product install by the same name permanently labeled an outboard drive with this label bold text'Roboform2Gobold text. I know how it got there, it was with the install the product by that name, which I uninstalled, and no one from that company would or couldn't tell me how to get rid of the relabeling it had done. Uninstalling the software didn't take it out, and no one in a general forum had any suggestions. I know the traditional approach of adding or changing a label, but change attempts don't affect this reminder of a poor product that I had decided not to keep. They refunded, but did not help with the changeless drive label.

For example, on the Google login web page there is a field to enter your email and phone (username). When I click it, I can see all my usernames, which are stored in the password database. Previously, I could only see the ones I had used previously on that page. Is there any way to adjust this old behavior? Thank you.

I am currently a victim of grave identity theft over several platforms which prevent me from smooth and segure sign ins, confirmations, password changes , etc. Safari is gravely affected, as a mother browsers. My last resort will be to stick to Firefox/ Mozilla gladly. Any advice to further my viver security? Thankfully…Sergio

1. Is there a way to have contrast control be turned off/on for specific sites? Instead of every single one

2. How can I change the URL color in the dropdown? I've looked up ways to do it and they haven't worked. (Yes, I (mostly) know how userChrome works)

How do I change the color of visited links without changing the background color? This is a new problem that started 2-3 weeks ago. The background color is improperly coupled with the visited links setting. Mt previous setting that worked was changed when Firefox received an update and there is no way for e to change the visited links color without it changing the background color. Please help.

When I enable vertical tabs and set the sidebar to expand on hover, the toolbar icons behave inconsistently. In the collapsed state, the icons are arranged vertically, which is correct. However, as soon as the sidebar expands, they switch to a horizontal layout—making it difficult to click the tool I want. Is there any way to prevent this automatic rearrangement and keep the icons in a vertical column even when the sidebar is expanded?

Firefox 138.03 Windows 11 Pro

I have had this issue for previous versions of FF and in Windows 10.

I have set FF to save in d:\downloads but to always ask. It does ask and I then direct it to the specific folder that I want to the save the file to be downloaded in. I change the name of the file and FF saves the file to that folder. However, FF also saves a copy of the file, with its original name, in the D:\downloads folder. Is there a way to prevent FF from saving the duplicate file? Thank you

edit. Sorry, I just found others with the same issue. As I understand it, there is no way to prevent FF from saving duplicates.

I have tried the troubleshooting described on your website. Firefox will not open to a full screen; when I try to use the application it opens, but only to a thumbnail. I cannot use the application. I have tried reinstalling, I have disconnected the second monitor (I am using this on Windows).

Multiple problems 1) bookmarks disappearing

  About 8 to 10 months ago a group of bookmarks disappeared from a bookmark file. I reloaded an exported HTML and no problems. 
 About a month ago Several groups of bookmarks disappeared over several days. A folder with say 20 bookmarks in would now have only 5. then none a day or two later. this happened across ALL but one of the default bookmark files and ones I created. I also noticed Firefox was not creating backup bookmark files so I removed Firefox, reloaded Firefox so everything was up to date and in the new I reloaded the older bookmarks HTML in the new installation.  
 Now it is happening again as of the 16th of May 2024 only this time Again no backup bookmark file are being created and Firefox is not creating manual backup file or HTLM Exports.
2)  I have gone though the Troubleshooting instructions and I am at a loss on what the issue is. I have used Firefox since the early 2000s and have never had this issue before but in the past year it has happen 3 times. 3) UNRELATED ISSUE - MAYBE- I found on the setting page at the top IS THIS NOTE -- Information Your browser is being managed by your organization.-- This is a personal computer. There is not an Organization. How do a get rid of this and does this mean someone else has access to my computer.

And when I open the Documentation there is a whole list of thing it is telling me I have no control over

Recently, yesterday, the Roboform extension stopped displaying in Firefox with the other extensions next to the address entry bar. I have rebooted the system and deleted and reinstalled the Roboform extension, but it still does not show and it stopped allowing for login password selection.
