Firefox Community Forum

Lately, I cannot get to staples.com. I think it started after the last update, but I'm not sure. I never had a problem before, and Staples is a well-known national company for office products. I've restarted Firefox in troubleshoot mode, but the result is the same. Chrome and Edge have no problem accessing the site, so it's a puzzle why Firefox cannot. If anyone has any ideas about how to proceed, I'll appreciate it.

I installed portable Version 156.0.1 (64-bit). Since then, the search bar is displayed in the middle of each page instead of the menu bar. Is this a known bug? see image thanks

Every time there is an update, Firefox creates a new profile and hides all passwords etc. It is therefore impossible to work with it now. With 157 I now have a worthless Firefox, because all links, passwords, settings etc have been cleared and a new profile has been created.

Desktop version update to 157.0.1 acted like a fresh install. Prompted me to import from previous browser. Firefox was my previous browser. I have my bookmarks backed up, but lost all my tab groups, which is a huge problem to try and recreate. Lost downloaded themes. Lost downloaded extensions. Why did this happen? I can't imagine it was by design.

My VPN used to work perfectly with my South African sites. Since I've downloaded the new Beta version of Firefox, things have become unstable, and the South African sites - mainly my dictionaries (which I use daily because I'm a translator) - don't work any more.

South Africa is one of the countries on the list, but when I open the VPN now, it says South Africa is unavailable, which had never been the case before.

Please help me sort it out. I can't take screenshots of the problem. When I go to the country list from the VPN, the dialogue box disappears.

Hey,

When I was using Firefox version 156, the free Firefox VPN was active for me. However, after updating to version 157.0.1, the free VPN no longer appears, so I cannot use it.

During a recent upgrade, the Appearance defaulted to Dark. I hate dark web pages! Yes, I went to Settings > Appearance > Themes and selected Light. When I open a new page, it is light, but the Firefox home page is still dark. I want the Firefox home page to be white background with black text. How can I make that happen?

I use Bookmark Toolbar a lot. It has several menus, with submenus. But when they layer over top of each other, I get lost in which layer I am on and too often my mouse moves off the top layer, which closes it.

I would like to somehow change the colour of the menus, depending on the layer. Currently they seem to all be kinda grey, regardless of theme.

But if the first dropdown menu could be yellow and then the next be blue ... or whatever, it would be most helpful.

I suspect this is something that could be effected in userChrome.css, but I have no idea what to put in there to target the menus.

Any help or guidance you can provide is much appreciated.

Thanks!

you are blocking "entry.ostralia.cc" saying the ssl is expired....

BUT SSLCHECKER link text shows it's OK ! and all other browsers allow it...

you could at least allow me to access it under the 'advanced' option like in earlier days...

( the Host provider has mixed up billing for the 3 SSLs on my site , but all 3 are active and valid SSLs...)

MacOS Tahoe 26.7.1 Firefox Ver 157.0 My download preferences are ignored and downloads go directly to download folder without asking. All downloads have a .part extension even after download is complete. I tried trouble shooting mode and then added a new profile but the problem happens in all instances.

Okay posted this into iOS but never got any proper help, so I'm guessing that was the wrong place to put this.

Whilst I'm watching a video, if said video is playing in fullscreen, it'll often fade to black during different parts, as whenever a flash happens or quick cuts (e.g. a film with lightning strikes, causes it to fade to black and it stays like that - then fades back in super slowly). It is SUPER annoying and it causes me to have to rewind if I miss something because of it (only for it to do it again and again)! I don't watch YouTube in fullscreen because of it, but it even does it in streaming services - but worse! I honestly have had enough of this, it is genuinely infuriating.

I'm on MAC air 2022 M2, macOs Tahoe 26.6.2 - and the most recent up-to-date Firefox update: Version 157.0 I usually put off updating Firefox because it signs me out of everything! Meaning I have to resign into all of my school things, streaming, YouTube, and even this page itself!

Now I've gone into a private window and tested it to see if it does the same thing - yes, yes it does do the same thing, I put on the same two YouTube videos and it did the exact same fading in the middle of it at the same exact timestamp!

Took this photo of the movie Cruella because I knew there was loads of flashing lights at one scene. You can see that the video is faded but the rest isn't. The second image is when I click multiple times to try and stop it! But it happens again directly after.

Please help me, this is really annoying and I've put up with it for too long :(

The new look of Firefox 157 is very bad, in many ways. I am not talking only about esthetics, but Functionality. Too much distance between tabs, etc.

Is it possible to revert back to the look of Firefox 156 or earlier?

For the pas 2 mouths i am getting random: "Server Not Found.Firefox can’t connect to the server at" It is happening on random sites that i know for sure they are not down... Waiting , closing fire fox and open it again, refresh but after waiting... helps.
