When signing in to some websites, I see a dialog box that flashes once and disappears before I can read it or respond to it. If I have cleared my browser and reset permissions, for example, it shows up when signing in to Amazon.com. This is a standard FF dialog, looks like the 'save/don't save' password permissions dialog, one side of the box is white, one side blue, but it appears and disappears in considerably less than a second, before I can read much less respond to it.
Once I did catch a box like this--maybe the computer was slowed with something else that day--which was about my giving permission to allow Amazon.com to use fingerprinting information from my browser.
My question: can I slow down such dialogs so that I can read them and actually decided whether to give permission or not?

I'm pretty handy with these computer-web thingies - was exctied to see the recent upgrade, but all of a sudden, all of my searches are being passed to Google - MASSIVE RED FLAG?!?!
I had all of my security dialled in very tight - removed Google, removed Twitter, removed Facebook, removed Amazon, set up containerized browsing to stop them all from talking to each other via ads, upgraded all security settings to give myself a nice, quiet interweb...
Is there any way updates can respect (at least) the selected search engine from before the update, so as not to expose my data to the cartel?
Many thanks - I'm a big advocate for Moz://a and all the amazing things you do <3

I have been reading the forum and trying and seeing if changing some settings will solve the problem, but nothing has worked. The problem is this; when I reopen firefox after either A) having shut down my laptop, or B) having simply 'quit' firefox, I must enter my email address and password again, then enter my phone number so that it can send me a text to the link to the firefox app for my phone (which I have installed), then finally I can navigate firefox as normal and my websites and history are remembered. However, it is not really "as normal" because I have to SIGN INTO the websites again. Sometimes it remembers the username and password and all I have to do is click through it, but sometimes it doesn't and I have to manually sign into them. Bookmarks aren't ever saved either. I have attached the screenshot of the screen that comes up every time I reopen firefox and this problem happens. I did not have this problem on my older firefox instillation, just when I updated to the newest version. It is so irritating. If anyone can tell me what to do so that this does not happen, and it remembers me, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Running Firefox 72.01 for Mac. OS Catalina 10.15.2.
I've made the switch from Safari to Firefox except that my CAC card reader is not recognized when I attempt to use. It works fine in Safari and Chrome.
Is there something else I need to install or are CAC card readers not supported by you?

I need to bring up a url with http and not https. However, FireFox will not change the url from thing I need (http://) to the thing I do not need (https://).
To try stopping this action I verified the browser has absolutely nothing stored in cache or browser data.
Safe mode in FireFox made no difference.
I also turned off the Apache software on the server hosting the site. When that did not alleviate the problem, I disconnected my computer from the internet. FireFox continues to change the url, adding the s in https.

Firefox for Mac 72.0.1 prints only 3 pages of a web page. There seems to be a problem with Print Preview or Apple's Preview application or both, their interaction.
I've tried all of the suggestions. I tried all the print options. I tried using the Print Edit extension. I disabled extensions. I used safe mode. I tried deleting all the Preview prefs. I tried deleting every trace of Firefox and Mozilla from my hard drive, then reinstalling Firefox. I deleted and reinstalled my printer drivers for a monochrome Brother laser printer HLL 2370 that is only a few months old. I'm running macOS 10.11.6
Web pages print correctly in Brave, Safari, and iCab. Therefore this is a problem with Firefox. It's a perennial problem that I have had for many years. I have ALWAYS had problems printing web pages in Firefox. It's always something. I don't understand how something so basic can continue to go unfixed when other browsers don't have a problem with it. I'm baffled by the whole thing.

I often use the "Option+Left/Right Arrow" keyboard shortcut to navigate through text.
In Chrome and other programs, this works how I would expect it: using this site, the first press of the right arrow will move the cursors after "https" and before the ":" character. A second will move it to the end of "support" before the "." character.
However, Firefox will jump to between the "//" characters" and "support" on the first press, and will jump over the period after "support," before the word "mozilla."
This applies to the address bar, but also anywhere text is present, such as a form text area.
Strangely, moving the other direction does not skip past punctuation.
The behavior exhibited does not match that of the native operating system (moving to the end of a word, excluding punctuation) so I find it somewhat jarring. Is this something that could potentially be changed by a config and/or fixed at the application level?
Thanks.

Hi, I really love everything about Firefox Developer Edition, except the JSON viewer. I'm used to looking at plain formatted JSON like the JSON Formatter plugin provide. But, even thought I have installed JSON Formatter (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/json-formatter/?src=recommended), it only shows this tree/table-ish viewer that comes with Firefox Developer Edition. Is there any way to disable this feature and use a plugin for this, just as in Firefox ?
