Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

i have tried every about:config option there is on google and i still can't disable the expanding URL bar (where once you've entered a asearch, heading back to the bar expands a menu on the right side with a privacy icon, a drop down menu, a pocket icon, and the bookmark icon). very irritating.

i have seen options regarding the userChrome file but i'm inexperienced and probably messing something up.

any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

I've encountered my fair share of bugs. I'm also disabled, so I need a lot of safety and accessibility fixes to use any browser.

Debugging advice often involves ""safe" mode," which disables some safety and accessibility tools, or "refresh Firefox," or otherwise using new profiles, which require me to set up the safety and accessibility tools before I can do anything. (For example, by default Firefox uses blinking cursors, autoscroll, and smooth scrolling, all of which trigger my migraines.)

In the past I've sometimes copied specific items, or cleared out a new profile folder and copied everything from an already-set-up profile folder.

Are there better or worse ways to copy bookmarks, saved passwords, about:config settings, user css, add-ons, and add-on settings?

(The previous time I asked this, I somehow got diverted to the wrong forum.)

I use my bookmarks to keep track of fanfiction I want to read on archiveofourown.org. The site features a 'history' section itself. Recently I noticed that stories I've bookmarked say that I've visited them way more than I have. The 'How many times you've visited this page' ranges between 30 and 500 times for each story, when I've only actually clicked on them once myself as I bookmarked them. Is firefox constantly opening/pinging my bookmarks and is that what is being reflected on archiveofourown.org?

Thanks!

It's good to have a warning when you are about to close multiple tabs, but why does the warning have to come up about as many times as the tabs themselves?

Surely one warning is enough! Any way to change that?

Thanks!

After Update, from 77.0 to 77.0.1 I am facing an issue. Now most of my YouTube videos are broken... I can hear but can not watch. It also happend with other websites. I reset, reinstall, cleared cache, removed extension to fix the problem.. but no result.

Somehow instead of being able to go directly to an internet address from an email instead it puts me thru something that begins with r20.rs6.net (followed by many letters and numbers) and sometimes redirects. Do not know how to get rid of it. Really appreciate if someone knows how to resolve. Thanks

was resetting my pc when for some reason it deleated all my firefox settings but left crome? i tried methods listed but don't work, how can i restore all my old bookmarks?

FF v79 crashes multiple times per day, always when I click on a button, link, or anything. rolling back to v77 did not help. FF Nightly does it too. can't find a fix!

The text size on some websites (for instance Firefox, gmail and Wikipedia) are reduced to abt. 50%, while others still maintain the previous size. What to do to make them readable again? Kind regd Ulf Hj.

It seems most answers to this question tell you to clear browsing data and the autofill entries. That's not what I want.

Say you have a form that contains previous data, whether manually entered or autofilled. You want to use autofill for the entire form, but by default it doesn't overwrite fields with entries. How do I clear the form and start fresh so autofill can do its job?

Can anyone tell me why, when I go to a legitimate website, I get a big yellow screen saying, "Warning: Security Risk Ahead? I am trying to go to real websites, for instance it will not let me go to www.equifax.com I know this is a real website, but Mozilla won't let me access it. Not only that, but once Mozilla rejects it, I can't access the site through any other browser. Please help. I need to get into these sites.

Since I updated to Firefox 78 I've noticed it's lagging. Running a quick search online I found out that reverting back to version 77.0.1 fixed the problem.

I just wanted to know when Mozilla is going to fix this issue to release a new version with the issue fixed.

When login credentials for a site are stored, firefox shows the associated usernames as drop-down in the edit field of a site login.

Since this shows *all* accounts that it knows for that site, I'd like to turn that off. I'd like to keep the auto-fill of passwords, once I've manually entered the username (as it was in the past).

I've only found how to deactivate the whole auto-fill for both: username and passwords.

Any way to get the old (=more discrete) behavior back?

Thanks!

I have a windows 7 vista and when I set up my account for fire fox I had an AOL email account I deleted AOL and no longer use, so in wanting to change my primary email for my profile it will not apply. Says in instructions there is a (primary change button) for this function but there is not.
