Recently, when I bring up a PDF document, there is a promotion for a signature that appears on the right side of the document. When scrolling, that side of the document can't be read, if you want to print, it obscures the printer properties. I have no need of a signature for anything I do with PDF documents, so how do I get rid of the promotion? The promotion reads: "Sign on the dotted line---or anywhere! "Draw, type, or upload your signature, then place it exactly where you want. Save your go-to signature for next time."

I have been using the old firefox profiles system for ages. However, whenever I open my browser (in one of about 5 profiles), I always get this pop-up saying "Say hello to Firefox profiles". It is incredibly annoying and turning me off Firefox completely! Can somebody tell me how to turn this message off? I assume it's in the settings somewhere.

I'd like to make it so every time I click a link to navigate a certain website, it opens in a new tab. I don't want every link I press across the web to open in new tabs, just this one site. Can't find any settings or extensions for this, but it seems like something someone must have made. Can anyone help?

why not

I'm going crazy trying to use the Suno AI music app that I have on my desktop computer here on this laptop. I use Google chrome on my desktop for Suno because it didn't want to work with Edge. I works fine with Chrome. Chrome didn't let Suno run on my laptop so a friend of mine said to use Firefox. So I've spent half the afternoon trying to migrate files, programs, apps and data from my desktop over to my new laptop. My desktop is Windows 10 and my new laptop is Windows 11 if that make any difference. I can just click a tab on my windows 10 desktop and bring up all of my files and saved songs on Suno. That's a far cry from what I'm experiencing here on my laptop. I can't bring up Suno no matter what I do. I need to be able to be mobile with a laptop for my music and recordings. Please help`````!!!!! I keep changing passwords, passcodes, etc, trying to get in.

It's probably a security setting...for some websites I go to Log In and nothing happens. Same for say signing up for a webinar. 80% of the time now Especially if I'm following a clicked eMail...so most likely a tracker of sorts?? ChatGPT not helping...wants me to do some techy stuff.

Trouble Shooting Mode, turning off ETP off for site AND in Exclusions... In Chrome, no problem.

Running Malwarebytes and Kaspersky

I'm hoping someone else has solved this!

Thanks

I am unable to access my account. It shows an error related to password or verification even after entering correct details. Please help me recover my account and guide me step-by-step to fix this issue.

how do I get sound on firefox? I mean, I have other browsers that I can listen to music with or watch youtube on, but firefox won't do it for me. I'm working on win 11 and with the latest firefox

So far hate new Firefox that I have been forced to switch to - very annoying and such a waste of my time trying to sort out my bookmarks. May make me switch to Edge or something.

Followed the instructions - C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ - found a backup but no information as to how to get the bookmarks into the new Firefox?????

Many of us are older users and perhaps not so savvy as to how to do this.

And so it would have been nice if Firefox could have been more "nice and be specific" with this forced change over.

Thank you

This is a request to update Firefox to fix a Geckodriver issue. Been using Selenium Basic inside Excel VBA which successfully Opens "firefox" but then fails to Get "https://jackpocket.com/lottery-results/arizona" ending instead with a '21' timeout error in the debugger. I have already carefully checked my Selenium Basic and Geckodriver installation, which are correct. So I think there is a code incompatibility between the two. I am trying to scrape the latest JavaScript rendered Next Jackpot numbers there into open Excel. The website URL is public information. The firefox version in use is 149.0.2 and the geckodriver.exe in use is 0.36.0 on a windows 11 laptop.

When I try to sign in from Firefox I get the message "Unexpected error". I can sign into my account online but only using Google to sign in. If I try to sign in to Mozilla directly, I get the same message.

I am attempting to locate the "manage containers" option on the container drop down menu but it is not there. I have read several other threads and have tried cntrl+ about:config "which did not have a false option" clicking right, and then maybe left and every which way I could click, but nothing. The drop down menu does not move so as to reposition and possibly find what I can't find. I do have my scaling pretty high, I wonder if that could be the problem. Any help would be appreciated, you know how we like to change these kinds of options.

A power surge took out my computer during a Windows up date, I could not recover anything, so did a fresh install of Windows........now, I can't get Firefox to bring over my bookmarks. I am so upset and lost right now, I'm sure I'm just missing something to do. Please help.

Hello,

I am reporting a performance issue specifically related to Google Search's AI features (AI Overviews) in Firefox 149.0.2 on macOS.

The Issue: When an AI-generated summary appears in Google Search results, GPU usage spikes significantly, reaching up to 212%. This causes the laptop to overheat and triggers high fan speeds.

Critical Comparison:

Firefox 149.0.2: Extreme GPU load and performance degradation when rendering Google AI elements.

Google Chrome 147.0.7727.56: Works perfectly with normal GPU usage under the same conditions.

Tested on two different MacBooks: MacBook Pro (A1502), 16GB RAM, i7 (2015) — OS: macOS Monterey. MacBook Pro (MMQX3), 64GB RAM, M1 Max (2021) — OS: macOS Sequoia (15.x/Tahoe).

I have tried all suggestions from the "Firefox is already running..." page but could not fix the problem.

I don't know if this is a problem, but I have several profile folders (see image). The top one is empty, but two folders below that one, are 2 GB or more in size.

Should I delete some or any of them?
