Hello,

I really enjoy Firefox's reader mode and the "listen" (text to speech) function. I get an email newsletter that doesn't have a web page (i.e. the content exists only in my inbox).

Is there a way to have Firefox use the reader mode in gmail? Or is there another app I can use?

Thanks!

I'm trying to revert Firefox back to its classical behavior of asking whether and where to save files. Changing "browser.download.improvements_to_download_panel" to FALSE does not work. Even with "Always ask where to save files" in SETTINGS selected. I've found numerous confusing write-ups on the forum.

As many have expressed, the decision to make saving files automatically the default is a TERRIBLE one.

I require a step by step method to change Firefox back to its original behavior concerning saving of files. I've used Firefox since its inception and this is the first time I've ever asked for help. If the current behavior is made an unchangeable default I will likely switch to another browser.

Hello, "How to stop the search from jumping to the address bar when typing on Firefox Home" was closed, but not resolved. I use DuckDuckGo as my home page and new tab page. It is annoying to have to click on the search field that I want to use. Using the address bar puts a slight strain on my neck.

One excuse from SeanaMuigean in the aforementioned article (1334131) is that all of the other search engines are doing it. My guess is that they do this because it allows the browser to track one's searches. If Firefox is doing this it seems like a very large issue.

I have set awesomebar to False and that seemed to work for a while but no longer. (Not so awesome to me)

Please make it so that a new tab makes the cursor jump to the expected field.

Thank you, Rod Carroll

at the very top of firefox browser are 3 rows...the highest row is the list of open tabs.....the middle row is the address bar itself with various icons....the lowest row which is the third row begins with 'import bookmarks' 'getting started' and then various website suggestions.

that 3rd row takes up space and has no useful functionality for me .....i've tried changing the settings but i can't alter it... is there a harmless way to eliminate that third row? thanks

Hello! About two weeks ago I opened up Firefox, and found that certain - well most - websites got switched to a very dark mode that broke the website. Websites like Joann had all the background as black and when searching I could only see what was brought up when I moused over the option. The Chell in the Rain website is completely black when part of the appeal is the artwork. Youtube? Black. Libby? Black. Accuweather? Black. Google Docs... that's actually fine.

I don't mind dark mode, but it's broken how several of these websites work.

Hello,

On some websites Firefox is displaying strange text/characters. I've tried refreshing and troubleshooting, I've uninstalled and reinstalled, and the problem was fixed for about 24 hours, and now it's back. I have confirmed my language is sent to English.

Has anyone experienced this? And if so, how did you fix it?

I don't want to use another browser, but at this point it looks like I'm going to have to. Everything displays properly on Chrome.

I have an external multi channel sound card (MOTU Ultralight Mk3 Hybrid). Gut feel is the hardware/driver is not relevant. I see there are multiple old bugs that have been closed. As such I have been told to open a new issue.

M1, Mac OS 13.4.1 - I am an experienced audio engineer so I know my way around multi channel audio config on Mac.

Audio was working fine from Firefox with a default setup. I had a need to alter some system sound settings for multi channel audio, unrelated to Firefox. When I reverted those settings. Firefox was sending audio to the non default audio channels on my sound card.

Safari, Chrome, Mac OS and Spotify were obeying the reverted config and sending the audio out the main outs. Only Firefox, for some reason was sending audio to channel 3&4. I could tell because I was getting a level on those channels. I have tried the following:

  • Rebooted
  • "refreshed" Firefox
  • Used AppCleaner to completely remove all Firefox and my sound card apps, drivers and preferences
  • Cleared cache
  • Triple checked all my factory config
  • Retested Chrome, Safari etc... all good with audio coming out the main out stereo channel

Firefox still sending audio to 1 & 2 (3 & 4 as the crow flies, and as the system sees them) since 1 & 2 are actually "Main out"

The audio is being routed. I just can't for the life of me figure out why Firefox is selecting the wrong channels. It used to work, and now it's stuck this way.

A few days ago, after a Firefox Update (I think), I discovered that my Homepage and default search engine had been changed from Google.co.uk to Google.com.

Now every time I open Firefox I have to search manually for Google.co.uk before I can search for anything else. Google.com does not work if I enter anything else in the search box.

I've been going round in circles trying to work out how to change it back again, but nothing I've tried has worked.

Help!

The latest version of Firefox that I just installed has a very annoying page resizing behavior. What happens is the page I have open in Firefox automatically expands to a full page on my monitor and disallows showing any other open tabs in Firefox. When I mouse up to the top of the screen, the open tabs show up again. But it is annoying that Firefox self-selects this page expansion behavior. Is there any way to turn this behavior in Firefox off?

Hello!

I´m using this addon in Firefox:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/double-click-image-download/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search

But when I double click to download a picture, it gets no extension, it is a blank file. To watch the picture, I have to manually change to .jpg

I contacted the addons support and they told me the issue is in Firefox webbrowser and not in the addon.

How do I solve this ?

Cheers //Andreas
