Firefox Support Forum

This problem has only occurred in the last 24 hours:

a) I access a Word file with Firefox (maybe an e-mail attachment, maybe directly from an e-learning site); I tell Firefox to Open With Word 365; the file opens, but only in Read-only mode - I cannot edit the document at all; I cannot change this status from within Word 365.

b) I access the very same file from the very same source but now tell Firefox to Save File to my Desktop; I then open the file with Word 365 - it opens 'normally'; I can edit the document straight away.

Yesterday, it did not matter if I did a) or b), I could always edit the document straight away (Read-only was never 'forced' on me).

As extra background, I have turned off every Protected View feature in Word 365 which I can find - does not help at all.

I want to be able to go back to option a): Open With Word 365, NOT have 'Read-only' & be able to edit the document immediately.

Hi My government has enabled SafeSearch over our internet. we cant disable or turn it off.

we had a solution to disable it by changing DNS in our browsers to CloudFlare. but unfortunately, it's not working anymore, so the SafeSearch is back online again...

now, how can we disable it?

I've the same problem as https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1317794#question-reply but after following the steps for the solution, it doesn't work for me. Does it have to do with all updates since this question was answered? I've created the chrome folder. I've created userChrome.css file and added the following without "`" marks in it and saved it and restarted firefox after changing the toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets = true . ``` @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

1. appMenu-fxa-label > .toolbarbutton-text { visibility:hidden !important; }

```

It doesn't work for me. Please have a look.

So this crazy new update has broken my Firefox in these ways:

1. All my bookmarks on my bookmarks bar have been deleted. 2. I can't drag any new links to the bookmarks bar 3. Overflow menu for apps is empty and will only let me drag Firefox defaults to it such as settings. Dragging apps to it is impossible. It "is" possible to pin items by using the Chrome puzzle piece..

Firefox: 109.0 OS: Windows 10 Pro

Using troubleshooting mode has no effect.

5 hr. ago Dell Latitude, Windows 10. Firefox will not display formatting options (such as italics, bold, underline, delete, etc.) in gmail. The only way to display the options is by hovering the cursor over the blank space above the name of the person it's going to (or received mail, just to be able to delete it) until an option appears. Nothing is indicated, and I have to move the cursor until I find the desired option and then click on it. The same thing happens in Chrome. This is totally crazy-making (insofar as gmail worked perfectly until a short time ago) and I'd welcome your suggestions and input.

For months now I have been unable to log onto the premium bond site at NSand I. They insist that there are no problems and firefox users with level 56 or above should be able to log in I have level 109 or above but still no possiblity to log on. Any ideas?

Hi,

I'm guessing since the last update (or at least since somewhere this week) I suddenly cannot login into my Shopify Admin. In Chrome (cross myself) or the mobile app i have no problems and everything works. Until somewhere last week, there were no problems in Firefox either. No problems seen on any other site. Shopify support can't find any problems on their end. Clearing site cookies and cache no avail. Security settins on "normal". Please see attached screenshot. I can login, but when choosing my store from the store list, i get this error message. Which is a very silly message, since i'm already logged in.

Anyone have any clues?

thanks in advance!

frustrated and thinking about moving away from firefox. why not let us choose whether to update or not??

cookies deleting you have to search for each and everyone (why not sorted by installed date???) then one has to delete all the site cookies that are ok cause such a big effort to clear cookies!

no longer able to bank cause bank changed their cross site settings and firefox wont let me through...have to watch the status in bottom left corner and hope I can read it fast enough.

laptop always behaves like cell phone...can't read, can't see desktop properly

I'm trying to add translucence to the hover effect on the new tab page, but I can't seem to select it from css.

Currently Ive tried adding this in usercontent

html:root[lwt-newtab-brighttext] {

 --newtab-background-color: #2B2A3366;

}

Hello,

I am currently using Firefox as my main browser on my Windows 10 laptop. I have had no issues with it except for a rather annoying bug I have had with scrolling. Whenever I open Firefox for the first time after powering on my laptop, scrolling with my touchpad will sometimes become choppy, no longer continuing to move after I lift my fingers like it normally does. I am pretty certain it is only Firefox that is doing this, as when I open the Windows start menu, inertial scrolling still works. Is this a bug that other users have had before?

Hi, I've been trying to transfer from Chrome to Firefox but have been experiencing a graphical error with primarily the toolbar in Google Docs. The places where icons should be denoting what each button does are empty - I do not have any extensions, plugins, or themes installed that would be causing this. I did install the Dark Reader extension to see if it would show icons when using it, which it did not. It actually is not exclusive to the toolbar, as drop-down menus that would normally have icons do not either. I tested in both Microsoft Edge and Chrome and this issue does not arise on either.

While Docs has been the primary issue, it persists across all Google Drive apps (Sheets, Slides, Drawings, and more). My version of Firefox is up to date and I am on an HP laptop running Windows 10. If anyone is able to help diagnose the issue at hand or direct me to another support thread where this issue has been resolved, it would be highly appreciated. Thank you so much!

I keep closing webpages when I am done and when I restart my computer ALL the pages reopen in my browser. I closed 300 tabs, went to Firefox view and cleared the "recently closed tabs" from there. I restarted my computer and 400 were opened again. These tabs keep reappearing again. How can I close these and not have them open again?
