Firefox Support Forum

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'm trying to keep my work gmail and personal gmail in separate containers. I've assigned mail.google.com and accounts.google.com to my Work container, and it works fine in that container.

When I try to sign IN to my personal gmail in a personal tab, it still works fine if I select "Would you still like to open in this current Container?" -> "Open in container". But when I sign OUT, I get the same prompt multiple times and each opening a new tab. I believe this is because gmail does some redirecting during the sign-out process. If I don't go through all these container prompts, I don't get signed out.

I'm probably missing something obvious, but how exactly do I achieve different gmail accounts in different containers if they all use the same domain?

Cheers!

Same as question 1337885, which was marked "solved", despite never being solved. (Solved for a few months is not solved!)

Does every user seriously have to go through the rigmarole of manually editing a CSS file in order to have a usable UI? (as per https://ourtechroom.com/tech/get-back-old-tab-design-firefox/, for example)

Hi,

I have a problem connected with shortcuts on tabs in Mozilla Firefox. When I click a tab with right mouse click then I can for example close tab by just clicking W, or I can pin a tab using P. And it works great on Windows 10. But on my Macbook clicking buttons on keyboard does not do the required action, it just kind of hovers over the option i chose. I mean, when you look on the attached image you can see that for example in "New Tab" letter "w" in underscored (so I can click "w" and then the tab closes). Is there an easy fix for that?

Thanks

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.

When I use windows 10, pinned tabs were worked properly. But in windows 11 I pinned tab at mozila firefox. I quit with my some of tabs are pinned. But when I again start firefox my pinned tabs are gone. This is so disappointing to me. I didn't face this type of problem at windows 10.

I'm a realtor and I use firefox as my browser bc I have all apple products and an esign portal that I use doesn't work with explorer. Two days ago firefox stopped allowing me to open my MLS browser Navicamls.net. I can open it on internet explorer or any other computer that is not a mac, but I can no longer open it using firefox.

hello, i would like to change what page shows up when i open a new tab (to the you.com page), i tried new tab override but then the adress bar on top has the url i opened chose which is very inconvenient

I recently had to reinstall firefox due to a few issues. Before the reinstall, when I opened a new tab it would open as my home page. After I reinstalled it, I was able to set up my homepage URL but there is no option for new tabs to open wth the same page. The only options for new tabs are blank page or the default firefox homepage. This was never an issue before the reinstall.

How do I fix this? Has the option been moved somewhere else?

Every time I open a new tab or go to a tab that I have open, when I come back after my computer has been asleep and try to search for something or refresh a tab, it will give me an error message. I have to close the tab and search again then it works, sometimes I have to do it 2 or 3 times to get it to work. This just started happening with MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 and FireFox 103.0.2 updates in the last few weeks. I tried restarting my computer and I deleted the Firefox app and reinstalled but nothing helps.

I cannot open my familiar Firefox when I log on. The Firefox settings across the top are gone! It does not show " File,Edit,view,history,bookmarks,etc. Please help - I am lost (senior citizen, limited digital knowledge!

So I can't believe Firefox has been around this long and still hasn't made a tab preview like the one on the new google chrome update. I can't even find an add-on anywhere. So please devs make this a feature. I know that there is an option to see the preview of each tab in the windows taskbar but that is just messy when there are a lot of open tabs because you can't just click on the open window and jump right into you left off you have to look through each and every open tab to find the right one. IMO this seems like a great add-on considering other browsers already have their own version of this. Below is the Preview tab that firefox already has and it just sucks imo.

Hello, please how do I set up the browser so that the duplicate tab opens next to the one I want duplicated. Now the duplicated tab opens at the end of all the open tabs which is really annoying and not logical at all. I am using windows 10. Thanks

Hello,

I had 2 Firefox browsers open, 1 for work & 1 for games. I restarted my computer, & tried to open the Work tabs, which I shut down 1st before the games tabs but only the last set of games tabs reopen. How do I get the "Work" (shut down before the "games") tabs to reopen? TomMulvihill99@gmail.com
