garbled fonts on websites after upgrading to mac OS ventura 13.3

/edit: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to Firefox section

Hi there!

Whenever I open Firefox, I receive a notification that suggests I reinstall the browser due to a configuration file error. However, I am still able to use the browser normally and my settings remain intact.

Is there anything I can do to address this notification without reinstalling Firefox? I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions you may have.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Best regards, sander

This is more of a bug report than a question. In my job we use a web platform called Embrace for all the documentation needed for our special education students. On the platform, we enter information into simple [i.e. no formatting] text fields. When I'm typing into the fields, the window will scroll slightly each time I type a letter or space, so that it moves towards the top of the document. When the cursor gets to the bottom of the page, it will jump back up.

I'm trying to open all the bookmarks in a specific folder in a new window but the only option available is to open in tabs in the same window. Is there a way to add "open all in new window"

I got a new machine, and exported from a windows 10 machine running firefox and got a "bookmarks.html " file that was saved to my desktop. I then used a USB drive to put it on a new LINUX box with firefox running on it. something happened with the "other bookmarks" folder in my bookmarks list. It is empty and I cannot access it. PLUS there is ANOTHER "other bookmark" folder on the bottom of the list that I cannot access or select.

The "other bookmarks" on the bookmarks tab is empty (the one on the top of the list). I can't move a URL to it. There is also another "other bookmarks" on the bottom. which I cannot select and therefore cannot get rid of. And I have a link to some place that I also cannot select (and therefore cannot get rid of).

All the bookmarks in my folders and lists are ok and they work. I think the bookmarks list (which I cannot find in the linux file system) is corrupted. How can I find it, delete it, and then try to import my new "bookmarks.html" again ? Using Linux POP-os ver 22. Most recent release.

DUO all of a sudden is nto working with Firefox.. I tried clearing my cache, but still nothing.. it flickers and then says access Denied. . I have to use CHROME to get into some of my work sites. I do have the latest version of FF. PLEASE HELP I work from home and and some of my work applications/sites that I need to log into DO NOT work in Chrome. I can't do my job without it.

Even though I have the settings correct in the browser ('Open previous tabs and windows' checked under Startup in the General settings section), Firefox suddenly stopped doing this. I went to help and have tried everything suggested (for example, in this article -> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1365225) to no avail. I generally have to have at least a dozen tabs open at a time due to the nature of my work and it is time-consuming and frustrating to have to re-open the every time.

I have tried the 'restore previous session' under the History menu but that is not an option given. So that isn't working for me either. 'Recently closed tabs' is an option but is greyed out / doesn't work.

It is possible that this is a result of a recent update as Firefox has been almost daily been asking me to update. But I do not know how to go 'back' to last version if that is the case ... or how to turn off the annoying update messages.

So what is going on?

Thank you in advance.

Hello people,

Lately, I've been having the problem with bookmars.

When I want to save my favourite pages to specific folders I created for different areas, I always used the method where you click in panel with www address e.g. https://support.mozilla.org/, the whole address is now selected and I drag that addres to specific folder of mine. When placed, the bookmark was saved to that folder, but in addition to that, Mozila browser also fetched bookmark title with title of the page.

So after drag-and-dropping the link https://support.mozilla.org/ I ended up with bookmark in my folder, that looked like this: "Get Support | Mozilla Support"

Now when I do the same procedure, I just copy the link addres itself. So it ends up like this: "https://support.mozilla.org"

You get the idea. )Where did the feature of fetching titles dissapear? Can it be returned back?

I've been using bookmarks this way (drag-and-drop by mouse to specific folder) since I can remember. And this problem occured just week ago. It helps me to speed up my process faster than using the star icon. And now I dont even know what I saved when I look at my folder and try to make sence of it the next day, because everything I can see is link addresses.

I tried it on many computers and many diferent systems Win10 11 etc and I still get the same problem. I tried it with reinstalling Firefox, with deafult settings, in normal or inkognito mode. Nothing works.

Any help? Can this be fixed?

Best regars, J

I'm not sure how this happened but now having a hard time reading text because the background is so bright. I went to settings but was unable to find any way to change the brightness or at least a darker background cover. Please help.

Can anyone tell me how I go about removing this malware please? It suddenly appeared whilst using Firefox in the last few days. I'm not very tech savvy so simple instructions would be great.

Hello,

I am a developer and I am working on a project but it is next to impossible for me to share my staging server cookie on my localhost project which I am running locally. I have tried multiple possible ways which was listed on google and even on chatgpt but nothing is working out. Please help me out with this disaster.

Thank you for you support which I am expecting urgently.

According to the DLink chart, to view the older cameras, in other words 1 generation portal for type L cameras. 2nd generation portal I can view my LH type cameras clearly.Which product should I select? I am using a dell laptop with windows 11. 500GB drive so plenty of space to operate.

When using the website "Ancestry.com.au" it downloads ok but I cannot download my DNA matches when I click on the link. This link works on Chrome. I believe other users of Firefox have had the same problem with the Ancestry web site.

Not sure if this is something everyone experiences but every time Firefox updates on my computer, the password manager goes back to default settings and starts prompting to save passwords again. I have disabled the darn thing countless times, but it always comes back alive after the browser restarts after an update. Why does this setting does not persists after an update and stays disabled? I have a Firefox account, and sync is on.
