I am starting to use the new utility which allows me to group tabs. But I would like to see only the name of the group and not the whole list. How can I collapse the list of tabs which belong to a group leaving only the group name shown. Then with a click I should be able to see the corresponding list of tabs if I need it. Saving and closing a group is not a solution, as the group disappears from the Sidebar. Thank you for your help. Best regards Ray Ballisti [edited] @bluewin.ch Switzerland

Hello. For a while now I have been using the picture-in-picture feature to play a video in the corner while using other applications. It has been a great help as I have a single monitor.

Unfortunately, I have recently been encountering a severe issue with the feature over the last week. When attempting to use picture-in-picture while my computer is running a videogame (through Steam) my entire system will freeze. The audio still plays as normal, but the image is frozen and the system is unresponsive until I force a shutdown and reboot.

Any help at all in with this issue would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Hello. Today I updated Firefox to Version 138.0.3 64 bit and I have found that the Search Bookmarks in Bookmarks no longer works where as in Version 138.0.1 it did. I have done a Refresh and it still does not work. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem. Is this a bug or something new with the current update. Could someone tell me how to solve this a using the Search Bookmarks function was a big help. Thank you.

Respectfully, Don

Changed behavior of autofill is a small thing. A few weeks ago, I could enter the first few letters of a site and then down arrow to choose one from the list. Down arrow no longer works here.

A significantly bigger issue allowing a website to open a window or tab or popup. There used to be two buttons when this happens, allow and always allow. Always allow is no longer a choice. I have to click allow every single time I go to that web site. Since two of those sites are the enrollment and learning management systems where I work, I'm doing that 20 times a day. If disappearing the always allow button was a design decision, it was a bad one.

Started a couple days ago

Youtube works fine for everything, except when i try to watch a video, the rectangle where the video is supposed to be appears black during loading (normal) but then vanish.

checking the console i get a huge error that's just unreadable for me

it doesn't happen on edge, or in private navigation

turning every addon off doesn't fix the issue, and it does it even in "troubleshoot mode"

i haven't "refreshed" because i don't know what kind of data will be lost when i do that

Running Linux Mint 22 on Dell desktop. On bootup, no bookmarks and message with link to restore them. Restarting computer sometimes works after multiple tries but often does not, currently on FF 138.0.3 but this problem has come up on several previous versions of Mint as well as FF. Now more frequent. No security or other software apps have been added or changed.

The last time I got the bookmarks to show I used the FF Save Bookmarks function to save them to a stick. That file shows on the stick as a .json file. Mozilla's choice, not mine. Manage Bookmarks in the hamburger menu generates a pop-up "Library" that will not access the .json file.

I have Firefox synced on two laptops. In the sidebar menu, when I look at tabs, I see tabs from the other device, but when I look at bookmarks, I only see bookmarks from the device I'm on. Neither can I see synced bookmarks in Manage Bookmarks. In the Settings, in "Manage what syncs on all your connected devices", I have Bookmarks checked. How do I see my synced bookmarks?

Running Linux Mint 22 and FF 138.0.3. Normal practice is to leave 2 or 3 FF windows open on shutdown so the same windows and tabs will re-open on future boot-ups when opening FF. In the last several versions of FF as well as of the OS, those tabs appear on boot but display random text within a random tab for a given window. Also, the highlighted icon in the tray does not match the window that has opened. If I click and re-click the tray icons, they eventually display as expected.

Hello. My untouched hyperlinks changed their color from darker blue to lighter. Visited hyperlinks remain as they always were, as far as I can tell.

This video has the color scheme I'm used to: https://youtu.be/V7gfuh-dRHM?si=uS3_PlVUdhu-48Kj

My colors changed, seemingly randomly, to the attached screenshot

Another thing worth mentioning is that if I open a new private window, the colors are what I'm used to.

What can I do to revert the change? How could this happen?
