Firefox Support Forum

My home screen and all other browsing screens are so high and wide that I can't scroll down because the side slide bar is not on the screen. I have no idea how this happened! I can't find any articles that help me reduce the screen size that I can understand. There seems to be no solution option in firefox settings to adjust the screen size. The View tab does not help because it just offers zooming of the data on the screen, not the actual size of the screen.

I am going to use Chrome and/or MS Edge until this screen size issue is resolve by firefox, and I may not come back to using firefox any more - including cancelling my subscription to Mozilla VPN.

I've been experiencing this issue for a while, i've tried different things (including turning on/off "Allow paghes to choose...") and none of them work. I've uninstalled all Adobe Fonts, which also didn't work. It's the same on all of my devices except my Phone where im logged in with my Firefox Account. It seems that the Font that is being used to replace the original is Helvetica Neue, if that helps at all. I don't remember ever changing any setting regarding fonts to that font so i'm clueless at this point as to where & when this could have been caused.

Is this an issue anyone else has faced or was able to solve?

Thanks for your help

While this is a Privacy and Security setting issue - at least tangentially - my question isn't about security so much as how this data is being stored/retrieved.

I navigated to an entirely new site the other day and it requested a username and password. When the cursor was in the Username field, a set of proposed entries showed up. These were all (recognizable) first names - not emails. When I checked the Privacy and Security settings, I couldn't find any of the names in stored data. While this may be just cached entries for similar fields ("username" or "name" etc...), the list I saw was heavily curated. One of the names I don't ever recall even entering in any name field (and wouldn't have been used for any login) - but even if I had, the list that I saw was far from exhaustive and would only have been a very specific subset of any data I would have entered into any "name" or "username" field.

Is there somewhere I can find how that list was generated?

Thank you,

This is in response to zeroknight. Sorry, I didn't know how to reply directly to your email.

I deleted the site cookies and disabled tracking protection with no success, however, I was able to login in trouble shooting mode. I went back to normal mode but was still unable to login. Is there anything I can do to correct the problem?

Thanks for the reply.

Hello, Firefox randomly downloaded a file, with seemingly randomly name, that is 0 bytes and in download manager the source is moz-safe-about. It happened when I was accessing a popular wiki site. I opened the file in notepad, it was empty. I put it on virus total and came back negative, as it is an empty file. I've curbed through the support tickets here, using the keyphrase 'moz-safe-about'. I understand this was/is quite a common problem, but it still makes me quite worried and left a sour taste in my mouth, as I haven't understood any of the explanations. I have enabled firefox to ask me whenever it wants to save something (I have no idea why this isnt the default state). Happened on a somewhat fresh, updated win 11 installation. I'm also attaching more information here with a picture. Long story short: should I be worried? Am I overreacting and this is just some sort of a bug that occurred while getting a sites data? Thank you for your time.

Firefox. LinuxMint 21.3 Cinnamon 6.0.4 , Google Mail Compose, Pressing and holding the arrow key moves the cursor one character at a time. Google Chrome works fine.

If I enter "na", the namu.wiki site, which I have never visited, appears as a recommendation. Even though I reset my visit history and settings, that site still appears as a recommendation. Is there a solution?

how to permanently keep the warning about closing multiple tabs?

Every so often, probably due to an unseen update, when I press the red X at the top of of a page where multiple tabs are open, to see how many tabs are open, they disappear, and the preference option to not close multiple tabs without warning (which says the # of tabs open), has to be turned back on.

I am using Firefox adblocker for videos and films on Youtube and Google say I am using an illegal adblocker and want me to pay £12.99 per month to show films and videos ad free. What can I do?

How do I perform very basic editor functions like add/remove/move a page in the new Firefox PDF document editor? I am in the Mainstream Firefox 124.0.1 64-bit. Thank You, David

Every time I try to use Google Docs, Gmail, or use ShelterLuv (I work at a shelter), either the tab crashes or the whole browser does. I try to upload images onto ShelterLuv, but once I click "Browse" to view my pictures, the whole browser crashes. It is making it hard to do my job.

Crash report (most recent): bp-2ae75fbf-b2c6-4419-93fb-9ee600240401 That one is from me trying to upload an image onto ShelterLuv.

Thanks in advance.

On one laptop right-clicking on a tab gives me a Send tab to device option and when I click on it I get a message that the tab was sent. But the tab doesn't arrive on the other laptop. 2. Though I'm using the same version of Firefox on both laptops, I can only find the send tab option on one laptop because the menus are different. And many of the instructions I see online describe items on the menu that just don't show up. I know that I was once -- I don't know how long ago -- able to send a tab from one laptop to another. Most of the instructions are about sending from a phone to a desktop or vice versa. I hope someone can help. Thank you.

I would love to remove CNN and MSNBC from appearing on my computer. If I can get them from auto playing that would be nice also. What do I need to do? Danny *Email removed for privacy*

Hey, I have no idea what information to provide, thing is just that my mozzila always gets extremely slow {literally unusable} after being open for cca 10 minutes. I work in the browser so first ten minutes are fine and then it just freezes so much that I have to restart computer for it to work normally again - for another ten minutes. It is extremely frustrating, other browsers dont use it and I love mozilla and dont wanna put it aside. Anyone has idea? It is not hardware related, my hardware is absolutely fine, it is also not viruses related, pc is clean, any idea what could cause this? Or what could solve this? If u need some more information, I can provide, but I have no idea what could help to provide...

The Grey Text Fetish throughout The Web is ruining what little Senior Eyesite I have left. I don't want to switch browsers, but I'm not finding any way to darken text in Firefox. Help!

I have now changed the language of my Firefox Browser to English. And indeed the main menu is now in English. But when I click with the right mouse button on an empty space and then choose "Inspect" to access the expert settings these settings are still in the previous language and haven't changed to English. What can I do?

My Firefox browser did not update with daylight savings (this is my first time being in a country with daylight savings with this PC) and now all in-browser times are an hour behind, which is already really confusing for someone experiencing daylight savings for the first time. Now that I do not have a phone, this went from mildly annoying to really messing up my day-to-day life. As a result, I researched, found and followed this question-and-answer proposed solution to my issue but it didn't work. Now, I've been pushed a step backward because I have also lost the ability to view TV shows and movies on third party websites because the player will not load and a 'Website will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it' notice will pop up (image for reference). This is super infuriating due to the fact that my PC is older and genuinely cannot run any kind of chromium browser and Firefox is the only way I can access said third party sites. It would be wonderful is anyone had a solution for both issues; thank you!

Good evening. Since a few days (since installed ver 124) I'm unable to use the "repeatability" from keyboard. I couldn't find any adjustment option in configuration to manage this. I tried outside (with other programs) and it works fine. Maybe its me, that I'm missing some adjustment. Would you guide me about this, please? Thanks in advance!
