Firefox Community Forum

Since several days every time I visit a webpage I see that there is a popunder from syscsrv.com!

What can I do to stop this?

I am in the process of switching from Windows 10 to Linux Mint (Cinnamon 22.3) as my daily operating system. My current Windows version of Firefox is 147.0.2, for Linux it is 147.0.3. installed from the official repository - also known as the Software Manager in Linux Mint. I've configured Firefox exactly the same in both operating systems. Running under Windows when saving a Bookmark, Firefox displays the well known Globe Icon, but after reloading the page the Favicon appears immediately (provided it is available of course). Under Linux Mint this does not happen, even if one restarts Firefox. Only after a system reboot Favicons of revisited pages become visible. Is this a fundamental difference between the Windows and Linux version of Firefox or am I missing something? I've installed the Firefox extension for caching the favicon, but it made no difference, If I run it, still the Icon does not appear until system reboot. I couldn´t find an answer in the help database nor on the Internet in general.

This difference might seem insignificant for most people but for me it is. When shopping on the internet I bookmark a lot of pages of products to be able to make quick comparisons. The Favicon is of great help because it makes it easy to identify the different shops. Of course I could manually change the bookmark name to include the shop name, but Icons are a much better clue and leave more room in the bookmark name for other information.

The same thing happens on my two Dell laptops (Inspiron and Latitude), and a Hyper-V VM (on my desktop PC). They all run Bazzite Linux 6.17.7-ba25.fc43.x86_64.

A video may play for a second or two, and then it's either a black screen, or an error message of "The content doesn't seem to be working."

On the same two laptops and VM, the Chromium Browser, and LibreWolf (a fork of Firefox?), have no issues playing the same videos.

Firefox version on all three systems is 147.0.3.

Any help/guidance welcome with thanks.

This is a new issue starting from FF 148.0.3 On my Windows desktop I create a folder, Research. I drag URLs into it for follow up, and on PC as extpected the shortcuts have the site's icons.

Open FF on my Macbook at home and since this verion, no favionns until I open the respective pages.

Bug report I suppose. Non trivial.

I have an issue where Confluence stops working after a while.

The issues are as follows:

• Opening a link will work and show the page.
• After about 5 seconds, the page will turn black.
• Using the search bar does not work, no results show.
• Trying to expand items in the sidebar does not work.
• Clicking on a link in the sidebar does work, but it too will turn black after the same 5 second delay.
• You can't edit pages.

I have found two ways to temporarily fix the issue.

• Clear the cookies for Atlassian.net.
• Go into the inspector, switch to the Network tab, tick "Disable Cache" and reload the page.

Unfortunately, this only fixes it for a week or two until it comes back.

This is not specific to any one Confluence instance. Once one stops loading, all (that we have tried) stop loading.

Installing firefox on my new device: Not all of my bookmarks are uploading from firefox on my other device.

It uploads a really old version of the tool bar even tough it shows in the HTML folder I am importing from my other device that the updated links are in the tool bar category.

G0ogle hasn't helped! How can I remove some entries from the Bookmarks menu, such as: Search Bookmarks Bookmark All Tabs I'd also like to remove or hide "Other Bookmarks". (I'm using Firefox 147.0.3 x86 on Windows 10 version 1709.) Fingers crossed that someone can help. THANKS!

I used to have about 40 quick links, or bookmarks on my home page. I had pinned several. Others appeared according to how often I used them. The latest update deleted all but 3. I am very unhappy. How can I get rid of this update and bring back my quick links? I guess I will have to go back to Brave.

I do not want Firefox to restore my last session unless there was a crash, and thus I have the setting "Open previous windows and tabs" unchecked. However, if I reboot my PC and reopen Firefox, it brings up my last set of tabs. And I always close the entire Firefox window before shutting down, so there's no way it should think that it had crashed. This doesn't seem to happen when I close Firefox and reopen within the same PC session (i.e. without shutting down in between).

Current behaviour in fullscreen mode: When I move my mouse to the top of the screen The tabs appear and the whole website content gets shifted down. It's ugly and distracting. Desired behaviour: The tabs appear as an overlay and part of the website content is hidden underneath them. No transitions.

What css js should I modify to achive this, any help? This prevents me from using firefox in fullscreen mode and saving space.

What happened to the feature in Settings that allows turning off Firefox control of mouse.

I do not bother to remember the name of the setting, because I simply turned it off each time there was an update, to avoid the problems it caused. NOW, it is no longer in settings.

I first notices a problem when links on a banner did not work. It did no occur to me it was due to Firefox control of the mouse.

Next the mouse wheel function, configured in the OS, that scrolls three lines has become dysfunctional. It jumps around and jerk up and down when I use it to scroll 3 lines which is a huge time waste.

Then I went to settings to turn off the mouse feature and it was not there! So I looked in about:config and there is a huge list of mouse settings that appear to be configured the way Firefox has universally done without any way to disable Firefox control of the mouse.

Lastly, I do not have the mouse configured for accessibility; I have it minimally configured the way I need it in the computer OS settings. The Firefox configuration of how the mouse functions in Firefox also creates the same wheel problem when not using the browser.

How can Firefox universal configuration of the mouse be disabled. Nothing about it is useful or helpful, it creates a number of obstacle - primarily interference with the use of the mousewheel, and on some websites (primarily configured for the use of Chrome) the banner links are not responding to the mouse.

I do not have an accessibility configuration, nor do I use keyboard mouse shortcuts, Last time I updated I actually installed the entire program, hoping to avoid the Microsoft control of Firefox since the update feature apparently uses the microsoft app to update and takes control when Firefox is the default browser (perhaps also when it is not) - to no avail.

Please at least return the feature to disable Firefox mouse settings that allows turning off the configured mouse setting, or at least offer a solution for disabling them!!
