Firefox Support Forum

I have switched from using a dark mode extension to changing the colors in the settings, but it turns out that changing the background color with this function changes all the labels in gmail to be the same as the background color. In addition, it has caused a box to appear around the text in that same color. I would like the labels to show up with gmail's assigned color, and no box around the text.

I have been using extensions that I wrote. It was already difficult enough that I had to get them signed, but now I cannot even do that without a third party program because of "Two factor authentication". Isn't there some way to get Firefox to work the way you want it too without spending day jumping through hoops? There needs to be a way.

'Block Site' merely blocks access to a list of sites, but does not stop them appearing. is there a way to stop websites which use <gob.mx> in the address, which attempt to re-direct to 'mirror' sites that try to steal personal info and generate 'Illegal re-direct' warnings from anti-virus programs from appearing in firefox searches, automatically, rather than having to enter <XXXXXXX, -gob.mx> each time I search ?

It used to be if firefox crashed or was killed I would get an option to recover last session that would allow me to pick the tabs and windows to recover. This is no longer the behavior as of a couple updates ago, without me changing my settings.

What happens now is the recovery never shows up, so all I have is the all-or-nothing option where you recover the whole session at once from history. No option there to pick what to recover. How do I get the old behavior back? I relied on this to prune sessions when I ended up with too many tabs.

Latest firefox 117.0.1 (64-bit) on windows 10

We are distributor of Firefox extension for dragon professional. ( We are self distrubutor of the extension.)

It’s ID is dgnria_pro.firefox@nuance.com

Now we have done some modification to the same extension, while publishing it shows error as “Duplicate add-on ID found.”

Earlier we have used same ID for the Firefox extension in the year 2018.

Currently we have opened new account with same ID “dgnria_pro.firefox@nuance.com” and faced the mentioned issue.

We are expected to publish our extension with the same extension id as we don’t want our existing customers get affected.

Is there any way with which extension id “dgnria_pro.firefox@nuance.com” can be deleted from backend , so that we can reuse it.

In the instructions for moving the tool bar from the bottom to the top the instructions say: 1. Tap the menu button. Settings icon in address bar in android 2. Tap Settings. 3. Select Customize from the General section. 4. Under Toolbar, use the radio buttons to select either:

       Top
       Bottom 

STEP 3, There is no "Customize" under the "General" section.

How can I move the toolbar to the top?

When I open Firefox settings I can set; Firefox Home (Default), Custom URLs..., or Blank Page. I altered the Firefox Home to show a custom image per [[How to add image to my firefox home page / newtab page|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1288490]] . Now I'd like to show the Firefox Home page every time I open Firefox or open a new blank tab.

When I read the article [[How do I set a different Home page and Home button|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1341696]] the options in "about:config > browser.startup.page" are limited to "0-blank; 1-home page; 2-last visited page; 3-restore previous session", but there is no Firefox Home page in this option.

So, it seems I cannot have Firefox open to my custom Firefox Home page (and NewTab) image and have the home button open to my corporate web site. Is there another option that I can accomplish this?

ABSOLUTELY HATE MY TOP HEADER WITH MY TABS DISAPPEARING WHEN I AM ON A PAGE. I WANT IT FIXED TO THE TOP OR THE BOTTOM SO I CAN SEE ALL TABS OPEN WHEN I AM IN A SPECIFIC PAGE. IT IS AFFECTING MY WORK FLOW, THINKING AND IS SO AGRAVATING I AM CONSIDERING GOING BACK TO GOOGLE WHERE THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT EXIST. AS A LAY USEER OF THE INTERNET I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO CONSTANTLY FIGURE OUT WHERE PROGRAMS HIDE STUFF. LEAVE THAT FOR THE COMPUTER ENGINEERS THAT STUDY THIS, I HAVE HUNDREDS OF PROGRAMS I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT AND THIS CRAP PROPAGATED BY YOU AND MICROSOFT DRIVE ME NUTS.

When downloading files using Firefox, I used to see a list of the files already present in whichever folder I chose. Now I don't. I wonder if I've changed an option accidentally (hit a random shortcut accidentally?), or whether this a Firefox or Windows change? Please help!

I have the same question as here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1128139#question-reply

But it's locked for some reason. The answer provided is no longer an option in about:config. I'm assuming this parameter has changed since a few years ago.

How is this now done?

I downloaded the suggested ad blocker for YouTube, then restarted Firefox. I get a 100% totally blank screen, no menu, nothing. I don't even know how to remove the ad blocker!

I could not find any articles on how to do this so after half an hour of browsing, I gave up. If you are looking at the time of this login session, I have been logged in for something under two minutes at this point.

Note that the help page for obtaining information doesn't work if Firefox simply fails to start at all.

Currently, it seems to be a general key combo to use `Shift + Enter` within a search bar to open those results in a new window. However, I cannot seem to find any way to do this with a new tab. I found some old support articles about changing `browser.search.openintab` in `about:config`, but that seems to be on the browser level, not on a webpage level.

Does this functionality exist, or is this my white whale?

Suddenly when I click on 'Preview' to an email PDF attachment it will no longer show the PDF file, but instead says 'We are having trouble previewing this file' ~ see screenshot. My only option is to download the file, and then open it. This is happening with both incoming and outgoing email PDF attachments. Any suggestions??

(It may be "website broken" but I fear it is more this part of the problem)

Sorry folks, I know I don't help here much yet am often asking questions.

Base line: This machine Firefox Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Lots of pages/tabs open. 4 very specif tabs: 1 - this machine. 1 - RasPi #1 1 - RasPi #2 1 - RasPi #3 1 - RasPi #4

I use Node-Red on all 4 machines. So I have the tabs open on their "edit screen". I have a "dark theme" loaded - saves burning my eyes.

Until very recently things have been good. Example: Pic 1 And another part that is correct. Pic 2 All machines are running the same version of Node-Red with the same settings for how the "edit screen" is shown.

Suddenly - and alas I don't have a screen shot of one of the problems - the colour scheme is corrupt.

Example of a problem. Problem1 I can't see things until I move the mouse over them.

the other problem - which has now gone away - is the background as shown in pic2 is white.

Until today this problem didn't exist.

I am asking here as I want to check all possibilities.

SUSPICION 1: A LONG TIME ago I asked for help with the log in screen for these three remote machines. The colours were wrong and at the log in screen I was seeing text similar to how it looks in 'problem1' picture.

I adjusted the colours to something else and it helped the problem. Not exactly 100% good, but it did make the contrast better. Has that *crept into* causing this problem?

By opening a private window and logging in this is what the login screen looks like: login

Sorry I don't know how to make them appear as inline but I've named them as per how I called them here. (edit) SORRY, I see that the names were not exactly honored and they were given different names. I hope you can see what is what.

(edit 2) Ok, something else that doesn't make sense. The third of the remote machines. It's colour scheme is working fine. It is the same as the first two. RasPi. Buster. Ok 1 and 2 are V3 and 3 is V2.

BUT! Ok, saying what I just said/suspect is true: HOW did it happen? It was working for .... years. No problems. Suddenly **BANG** it happens.

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to disable this notification after I install an addon, or at least make it dispensary after 2 seconds without me needing to click anything, make it smaller even?

I was using the Firefox browser on my laptop on the floor. My little sister stepped on the far left part of my keyboard and did some sort of shortcut so now it won't show my tabs open or the search bar unless I put my cursor to the top of the screen. Also, my taskbar does not show at the bottom of my screen anymore unless I hit the window button on my keyboard. Can someone please help me put it back the way it was? Is this the right way to contact someone about this problem?

Thank you, Rachel

I see no way to set the system-wide default zoom to 70% as each time I do so and reboot, it is reset to 100%

This is, sadly, extremely frustrating after 3 decades of happily using FF.

Brave does it right.

With all respect, why not FF?

Your thoughts, please.
