Firefox Support Forum

When I open a new tab, I'd like Firefox to show pages that I've saved to Pocket.

I have selected Settings >> Home >> Firefox Home Content >> Recent Activity >> "Pages Saved to Pocket".

This worked pretty well! So well that I upgraded to Pocket premium! Unfortunately, I no longer see any of the pages I've saved to pocket.

How can I get my saved pages back? Thanks!

This morning, I needed to join a Teams meeting. After I'd clicked the link, I was asked if I would allow Microsoft to use my audio and video; I ticked "Allow". But, when I joined the meeting, I found that I could hear and be heard but I couldn't be seen; my video icon refused to react when I tried to get it open. It was only when I came in through Edge that I could be both heard and seen. Is there any way I can get into a Teams meeting through Firefox? (I have downloaded Teams on to my desk top.) Steve

When I have a website open and want to open a new one from the bookmark bar it opens it in the same tab, thus losing the first website. How do I stop this happening? I want to open several websites from bookmarks and have them all open at the same time. Thanks.

Why is there now no option to close present tab only when clicking on X. The old (default) warning was excellent. With no warning, clicking the X kills Firefox - and all open tabs. This has lost me hours of work already. i certainly don't want to go down the route of restoring all tabs first. I can't rely on it, for instance, holding all comments made on a form. And for that matter, I wouldn't want that to reinstate a login.

Please can we return to the warning with 2 options Close all tabs and Close current tab only.

I use google meet a lot. I need to screen my screen very often. i have used other web browsers which let to share a singe tab in the meet, but in firefox, can only get the option for either a window or an entire screen which is very inconvenient. I hope to hear from you soon because i use firefox and its be a shame for me to switch to other web browsers completely for this issue. My email is vijay.rh@gmail.com

Hi my tabs have suddenly disappeared, I restarted but still not there and am unable to find a way to reinstall them? This has never happened before,and is really quite annoying. Feeling frustrated and wasting so much of my time looking for tabs that should be there. Your support and a quick response is very much appreciated :-) Thanks in anticipation Lynda

I am trying to set it up so I can have more than one tab at a time or dont have to go to the corner to find a list of tabs or go to a diffrent window to open one. I have the box in the corner with the numbers but that sometimes vanishes entirely so I only have the one tab and would like it to be like most browsers where you can see them all at the top. I cant get the extension that manages it because the only computer I have is one given to me by my job that's a chrome book and doesn't support those extentions, I tried. About:config doesnt work it just tells me that's not a site or gives me advice on how to use it which isn't really helpful when I can't even search it or find the spot for it. The tabs section in the settings only offers to put it on top or bottom of screen or to have it inactive or not, or automatically close them, there is no option to have more than one tab. Please help I've tried everything I can think of and everything I could find online.

I have multiple listings of the same device when i use the "sent tab" service. The "ubuntu" devices are the same pc, just that i had to reinstall the OS 3 times and signed in to FF every time. Same thing with "fudge brownie". The duplicates do not show on the "my devices" list. Any way to remove them from the list?

so i just started up my computer, and i have the start up preferences set to restoring previous session. this usually works out just fine, even when firefox updates. however, this time (for the second time all around) it didn't go right. for some reason, the tabs opened up are from over two months ago from june, rather than my previous session. this is the second time something like this has happened to me.

i checked my homepages, and the alternate profile, and both seemed normal. (the homepage is the firefox home and the alt profile is the bare, the profile before i imported my bookmarks, passwords, add-ons, etc etc) reopening my previous tabs hasn't been too much of a hassle, but i don't want to make a habit of this. i have very limited technical acumen, so please be detailed and specific in your reply, i do genuinely need my hand held here.

if you have any more questions for me i'm happy to answer. thank you in advance!

I am running Apple OS High Sierra, 10.13.6 on an older iMac Mid 2011. My Preferences have always been set, or checked, General_Tabs "Open links in Tabs instead of NEW Window."

The result is a Firefox screen full of Single Windows with Single Tabs. Some Windows I may continue to add Tabs to but most of the time I copy the link from the NEW Window and paste the link on the older Window. If I am in a hurry the result will be many many Opened NEW Windows with one or two NEW Tabs. See attachments. This has been going on for at least 6 months now.

Note your checkbox titled "Email me when someone answers the thread" does not work but please email me at "[email removed from public]".

Thanks in advance!

I've been changing this over many years. Now I have two additional browsers to use so I'm not updating until I can, once again, organize the browser to fit my needs.

After the last update my Tab Heading text, actually all text outside of the main body of firefox got much smaller. Why does this constantly keep happening? Anyway how do I fix this and I don't mean using Zoom. I've already use Windows display to make things bigger but it did not affect the above text.

I have Firefox running and have several tabs open. I have checked the proper boxes to save and re-open the tabs from the previous close. This works amazingly well; often for vastly extended periods of time, as in months or years. Then I accidentally close the main window holding the desired tabs while having a second window open with some temporary webpage I was using earlier in the day hidden behind another window. Yes, it's almost not too late to save the mistake but it is often late in the evening and I just don't have the time to remember or find the correct steps to restore the lost tabs. Like what just happened to me at the end of my last session. I try and fail, and then try sleeping! Also, if a tab sits for a few sessions without actually being activated by a mouse click, my experience suggests it is lost from history.

Pease for the love of gawd fix this!!!

There are several obvious choices for the programmers to consider. 1.) close the "main" and all other windows open with Firefox. On restarting Firefox open all the previously open windows. 2.) let the user assign or define a master opening page with the desired web pages set as tabs. Then until 100 thousand years have passed always open this page with the defined tabs as set by the user. :-) 3.) do something else even more magical.

Finally, if anyone can update the steps to restore session tabs for version ~102. I've viewed several Q/A on restoring TABS but they seem to no longer apply. I cannot restore from history, so I'll need to go a little deeper into the woods. Thank you so much!
