Those instructions don't work and I'm sick of spending so much time on this problem these days.

Now thinking it happens after an update, which is a problem because they seem to come just days apart. None of the solutions offered works because right-clicking on the top doesn't do anything. Nor does going into the settings in the app on my laptop or online. I've downloaded and installed the latest version of Firefox more than once in the recent past. I've also shut down my laptop and rebooted. Nothing works. It's extremely annoying not to be able to access the features that I use *all the time*! day. I'm using a laptop with updated Windows 11.

I am using the current version of Bazzite. When I run Mozilla VPN, I just get a blank window for a few seconds, then it asks if I want to force quit. Uninstalling and reinstalling, and restarting my PC, do not seem to help.

I recently reinstalled Bazzite on this PC, and Mozilla VPN was working on my previous install.

Since before and after my recent updates on my Macbook Air, Firefox has become virtually unusable. Facebook has slowed to a standstill, X videos won't load and now after this latest update to ios Tahoe 26.5.1 some of my passwords to my sites no longer work either. My Safari browser works fine. Is this to do with permissions? I need a solution quickly or I will sadly have to stop using Firefox.

Hi there,

I've had a Firefox account on my workstation at work so that I can take my browsing with me when I am at a different workstation, sign in and sync no problems.

This morning I was provisioned a new laptop workstation and when I attempted to sync my profile nothing shows up. I am pretty confident I've signed back in to the correct account since I do this from time to time. Unfortunately the old workstation is unrecoverable hence why I was given a new one so I can't backup and import.

Checking the email account I used to set up the profile I found an email from March saying the account would be deleted since I haven't been active. This can't be the case because I have been using this account five days a week for the last 7 years.

Any suggestions on how to recover my profile and move forward?

TIA!

Select hover color problem

Hello! When opening a native <select> dropdown in Firefox, the hover/highlight bar on an <option> does not span the full width of the dropdown popup — it only… (mear ynfo)

Hello!

When opening a native <select> dropdown in Firefox, the hover/highlight bar on an <option> does not span the full width of the dropdown popup — it only covers roughly the left portion (about half) of the option row. The rest of the row to the right stays un-highlighted, which looks broken. Chrome (and Chromium-based browsers) render the same markup with a full-width hover highlight.

Steps to reproduce:

Open the attached test page (or any page with a full-width native <select>) in Firefox on Windows. Click the select to open the dropdown. Move the mouse over the options. Expected result: The hover highlight covers the entire width of the option row (full width of the dropdown popup), as it does in Chrome.

Actual result: The hover highlight covers only part of the row width (about half), leaving the right side of the option un-highlighted. See attached screenshots: (attach Firefox screenshot here — and optionally a Chrome screenshot showing correct full-width hover for comparison).

Notes / what I already ruled out:

It is not CSS-specific to my site. I reproduced it with: a styled <select> (custom background/color on <option>, dark color-scheme), a select with the option background removed entirely, the box-shadow: 0 0 10px 100px <color> inset "full-width" workaround, and a completely bare <select> with no custom CSS at all (appearance: auto). All of them show the same half-width hover in Firefox. Chrome renders all of the above with a correct full-width hover. This makes it look like a Firefox-level rendering behavior of the native dropdown popup rather than something controllable from page CSS. Environment:

Firefox version: Latest OS: Windows 11 Display scaling / zoom: (fill in — e.g. 100% page zoom, 100% Windows display scale; mention if non-100%, since DPI scaling can be relevant)

All too frequently, I receive messages as seen on the two enclosed screen dumps. When I click on the "Try again" button, I usually get through to the site I'm trying to reach. But today, I got the other response when attempting to log in to your site. Could that be another version of the usual response to all other sites. Could there be something that is intercepting my requests?

Best regards from Demark,

Eric Brown

P.S. I access the internet from a Lenovo Ideapad running Windows 11 fully updated.

Hi, i'm running a ryzen 5 desktop on Linux Mint 22.3 x86_64 with no ssd so it's a little slow to load firefox 152.0.1 (64-bit) after boot. I find that occasionally the tab i am loading timesout, and if i refresh i lose the page. I have a keyboard macro to work around the issue. I lost the code for it, but iirc it works by entering this combo alt-d, ctrl-c, ctrl-v, enter that is to say if I copy the url to the buffer and re-enter it, the page will load, but will not load from the current page.

I have looked at some of the comments about Firefox automatically opening pdf docs. Myu concern is twofold. Most importantly the password in the doc is somehow being overriden; that is a severe security issuen for me. Destroys the whole concept of security. Makes me very uncomfortable and may discontnue using Forefox after more than 15 years. Secondly this caught me by surprise; it only occurred for the first time this morning. How can i overcome this to prevent Firefox from performing merely as a browser?
