New release, new problems... FF 89.0/StartPage

I don't want the search field jumping up to the URL bar when I begin typing in the middle of the screen search field !

I want the URL bar to do just the URL...

Not impressed at all with semi-transparent tabs and tweaked interface colors.

I installed the latest Firefox update yesterday and then shut down my laptop, and today the theme is now all white and pale grey. I'd like to restore the theme it used to be, as this new look is so difficult to read as there is no definition between the tabs. How do I get back the pre-update theme? The problem is I can't remember what it looked like - I just know it wasn't as hideous and pale.

I'm using version 89.0 on Windows 10.

I've tried the add-ons but I'm only offered a really dark one or a horrible pink version as alternatives.

Thanks in advance.  :)

Hi There, I am Sizan, Live in Boca Raton. I Tried to Visit an Electrical Service Website of Boca Raton. But it Returns a Dns Failed Erro. The same Website Can Show in Chrome. How to Solve?

Can't log into Cash App using FireFox. After entering phone or email get the "Oops, something went wrong. Please refresh the page and try again." message. No problems with Chrome or Edge.

New firefox... the tabs are dreadful - all have the same white background with no border so it is very hard to find a specific tab that you are looking for as they all blur into one. Can I change?

Even worse is that the search bar in the centre of the screen no longer works on firefox - the search is automatically redirected to the address bar - why?? what purpose does this serve? it means I can't use firefox for internet searches.

Good Afternoon,

  On several sites I work on with form fields, there is an option to save the existing text then return and edit the message.  Now when the edit button is pressed, the fields are empty.  I have workarounds to do everything in one shot using a text editor, but it's not convenient and something I do regularly.

It started with an update in the past year, but worked previously. This is on an Ubuntu system running Firefox 89 (64 bit).

The settings are the default, with no additional add-ons at the moment.

Since installing the latest versio of Firefox for Windows 10 I can't open some websites (including annoyingly my own video podcast) unless I restart my computer. Other websites load perfectly. Those that don't load show the correct tab with the oscillating dot but a connection with the server is never established. If I then restart the computer (leaving the frozen tab in place) the website immediately loads. This was never a problem with the old version of Firefox. The new version seems to freeze out the relevant server until a restart is done. Is there any way I can enter the URLs of the affected sites in Firefox to ensure they can be accessed at all times?

I am running on a Windows 7 64-bit desktop for work, and it's about 6 years old. Each morning I find myself unable to access any Google sites, but all other sites work fine.

For the last two weeks, every day I've had to do a full refresh of Firefox to default settings in order to access any Google sites. As an educator, we use Google Drive and Google Classroom all the time, so that is something I have to be able to access.

It's only Google sites that I can't go to, and it's only in Firefox. Once I refresh, everything is fine until the following day.

The only modification I make to Firefox is to enable Dark Mode. Otherwise, I don't use extensions or add-ons.

This has become a real issue. I'd like to continue using Firefox as my default browser so I need to find a solution. Any suggestions?

With the new version of Firefox I cannot open links pages on my college's website but they will open if I put the page url into Chrome. Any suggestions how to fix this? I don't want to stop using Firefox if I can help it.

Recently when I open ebay.co.uk on my Windows 10 PC it opens in a wierd fshion and is virtually unusable(see attached image). The site opens normally on myWindows 10 laptop and on my Android phone. Any bright ideas?

           My website shows the error .  Other browser not showing in this message, How to stop this kind of messages .

Cannot get any web pages from Netflix whether to log in, search their offerings, etc. Cannot even get their "help" page. Nothing. It always times out. I even created a new profile to start from scratch only to have the same error of the site timing out. I created a new profile and got the same result. I am running current up-to-date version of Window 10 (64-bit). Have Verizon FIOS and am connecting to their router via wi-fi. Anyone have an idea of how to resolve this? I cannot ask Netflix since I cannot connect to them. I can connect to Amazon Prime Video, BBC Iplayer but not Netflix. Would appreciate any guidance. Thanks

I am facing a strange issue where the Browser doesn't load the website for a minute and shows server error. However, this behavior is not specific to any website and the server error shows randomly. Sometimes the browser loads the website normally while other times it shows server error. Please check this screencast: https://jmp.sh/jEu4D9k to understand better. So, I initially tried to open calendly.com and it didn't load despite my multiple reload attempts. However, when I tried to reload it after a minute then it came to life.

I have been facing this issue for many months and I tried almost every solution I found on Mozilla community pages like Resetting Mozilla, Setting No Proxy, Turning Off IPv6, DNS Prefetching Changes, Turning On/Off hardware acceleration, Uninstalled Mozilla and Installed a fresh copy, Changed to Mozilla Developer Edition, etc. but no luck. Please note that the other browsers are working fine and don't have any issues.

When printing PDF document from web site using Firefox part of the left text is cut off. I have tried "Fit to Page" and shrink to 90% and still have issue. I can print this web document with Edge with no problem. This problem just started in the last several days. I am using Win 10 professional on a Del Opti-Plex 5080.

on a website my college is using for part of its curriculum, I tried to use the ctrl + F "find in page" feature to find the "caret" character ("^") in my textbook, but when I hit the button to find the next match, it doesn't find anything but it also doesn't change to say "Phrase not found" like it did on this page before I started typing this post. I'm not sure what's wrong, but I think I might've just stumbled upon a bug similar several previous bugs like [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1299464|this] and [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1320495|this] by the way, there also seems to be a bug with the "insert link" button on this forum. I selected the words "this" above, but it keeps trying to set the word "this" as the target for the link with nothing in the "link text" field, and since there is no support article named "this", it will just use the default markup text for when the input is invalid ("http://example.com this" with brackets around it)... pretty sure that's a bug as well right?

Because of this terrible 89.0 update I've had to start using Chrome, and I hate Chrome. I cannot get any videos to play in Mozilla anymore. Youtube doesn't work, Tumblr videos don't work, Twitch videos don't work, even the Tenor gifs on Discord won't show.

Yes, I have cleared my entire history of cache and cookies for all of these websites, and it does not fix the problem.

Nothing will play. I hate this. Please, Mozilla, fix this so I can go back to using the browser I actually prefer.

If anyone else is experiencing this, or has found a solution, please let me know.
