Firefox Support Forum

I am a new user to Firefox (started in Feb 2023). I am running version 110.0.1, Windows 10 version 22H2, 64 bit. I want to add more tabs (webpage links) to my Firefox Home Page. Firefox Help/FAQ says that I should select the address bar, enter in a website address, and then click on the "menu button" which is on the right side of the address bar. It is supposed to look like three dots or three lines. However, my address bar does not show that - or at least I can't find it. The picture provided in the online Firefox FAQ doesn't match what I am seeing on my home page. Please let me know how to get this "menu button" to appear. Thank you.

Point me somewhere that I can fix this. Last Pass used to have a large red item around where the pocket icon is in the top right but it doesn't appear now. I have downloaded "lastpass_password_manager-4.108.1.7.xpi" and tried to add it to the extensions. But nothing.

Thanks Bob Sawyer

Hey there! I am looking for a setting that sets the columns in the new tab page.

i know about: "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows" This is the same as going to the settings and changing it in the drop down menu.

Is there something that can set the quantity of columns?

find out why suddenly the banners and bars are so deep/large Reduce the bars and banners to previous settings to free up more screen space.

I did not alter the zoom. I tried using zoom to reduce the whole screen but the banners and bars remain large. Outlook mail screen view now has a huge left hand file/folder index column WHY?

Running Firefox 110.0.1 (64-bit) on Windows 11 Pro.

Spell check does not work. No red underlining of spelling mistakes. It is enabled and about:config confirms it. This happened to me a couple of times under Windows 10 and much older versions of Firefox. This is a recurring theme without a one-stop resolution.

Anyone? Thanks

I am using an extension for a custom home page which I download from the addons page, but I dont want it to show the site information in the bar,

How to disable that stupid thing which I have marked for the custom home page

I formatted me PC and can't remember an extension I had installed before.

This is what it does: When you highlight text, it gives you and option to cut, copy or paste, or you can search Google, Wikipedia and Google Maps.

I would be grateful is someone could help me remember.

Thanks GMACK

is there a way to remove search tab from tool bar and just have it in 3 line menu and also put stupid puzzle icon back in 3 line menu where it should be and not on my tool bar , i dont want to see either one of those annoying useless crap , there is already too much garbage up there we have the 3 line menu icon for a reason to keep all the rest of that crap off my tool bar it does not need to be there !

why cant i remove this side bar for my computer period ! bookmarks side keeps popping up on my screen im aboutr to put my fist thru this 42 inch screen i hate side bars and this damm thing keeps popping up ! [removed] hate this piece of annying [removed] !

below steps suggested to solve , but couldn't find how to add mentioned plugin Firefox Open the Firefox browser or restart it, if it is already running. From the Firefox menu, select Tools then click the Add-ons option. In the Add-ons Manager window, select Plugins. Click Java (TM) Platform plugin (Windows) or Java Applet Plug-in (Mac OS X) to select it.

When starting to type an email address in a login box on, e.g., amazon, Firefox produces a drop-down list of suggested completions using common email domains such as gmail.com and yahoo.com. I never use any of these and want to either suppress the suggestions entirely or customise the list to display domains which I actually use.

We have control-L to jump to the address area, but how can I jump back to the content area, where the actual web page is?

I know I can hit TAB x amount of times, but I need a direct keyboard shortcut.

Every time I press the print key since the last Firefox update it opens a new firefox window. It doesn't matter if Firefox is selected or not. I can't find any macros or shortcuts that are bound to the print key, so I don't have any idea what could have caused this.

Installed Ffx on my Win 10. Works Great. Installed on Win 11. Cannot find Norton Safe Search as an extension or as a search engine.

I clicked on a link in Win 11 and almost got into a malicious site. Would not have done so with Norton SS because it shows colored bubbles by each link. Would have seen a red bubble.

How can I get it to work in Ffx?

Thank you.

Sometime back I changed my email address. Whenever I "auto fill" a form, it always uses the old email address. How can I update this to the new one? Whenever I try asking this in the FAQ's I get over 200 answers to other questions than the one I asked. It's like the AI ignores the word "address".

I play youtube music or Noah's Ark tours, the screen has changed from normal with small video and red timeline at bottom to now very large letters and video very large so that to see timeline must scroll down I have a laptop pc, am on firefox / duck duck go browser. I was required to resign into google to get to my emails at the same time as the youtube change. I have 192 GB memory.

I have low vision and need the command-zoom feature to be restored to make FF accessible again. How do I do it? I really don't want to switch browsers.

Thanks

I am new to Firefox, and have just discovered that in order to open a new private window I must use the Ctrl + Shift + P keyboard shortcut which is pretty much impossible to accomplish with one hand. I tried to use this extension:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shortkeys/

But sadly my new added shortcuts were not opening the new private window while the ctrl + shift + p still worked, and it appears that this extension is only able to add new shortcuts and not change nor delete the existing ones. I want to assign a comfortable keyboard shortcut for opening a we private window (optionally unassign the Ctrl + Shift + N from Undo close window and assign that keyboard to open a new private window).

Firefox should again respect the user's wish expressed by "xpinstall.signatures.required".

The arguments for this are relatively clear and in line with the principles of free and user empowering software original practiced by Mozilla and Firefox.

Users should not be prevented from making their own decisions and customizing the browser or, worse, given an incentive to switch to Chrome due to encroaching opaque motives.
