Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

Maybe this is a bug report?

Adobe Digital Editions software is used by Archive.org, Open Library, Kobo store, and many other entities to deliver DRM-ed material in the form of .ascm files all named the same "URLLink.acsm" In the past, the download dialog box asked if you wanted to open the file in Adobe Digital Editions or save it to a location.

After the latest update today March 11, Firefox does not allow you to open the files in Digital Editions. It goes directly to "Save to" download location. This is not how the .acsm files are supposed to be handles. They all have the same name and are supposed to be opened into Adobe Digital Editions directly.

In Firefox Settings there is a box for - "Applications

Choose how Firefox handles the files you download from the web or the applications you use while browsing."

However, .acsm files do not appear and typing ".acsm" or the filetype name "Adobe Content Server Message" yields nothing inside this box so I cannot get Firefox to open these files with Adobe Digital Editions.

This is beyond annoying. These files are meant to be opened straight by Adobe Digital Editions. I tested it on Chrome and Chrome lets you open them fine.

Either the "Applications Choose how Firefox handles the files you download from the web or the applications you use while browsing." box functionality needs to be fixed to recognize .acsm filetypes or the previous default functionality of allowing me to choose "Open with Adobe Digital Editions" or "Save to" for this filetype needs to be restored.

If there is some other way to get this functionality back in the most current Firefox version, please advise.

Thanks!

Weekly, and sometimes multiple times a week, I boot my laptop up and i get a message that says I am running an older version of firefox and need to create a new profile or exit. Nothing has changed since the day before, why does this keep happening?

I signed up for firefox relay and used an alias to open an account. I now want to delete this alias as I am now getting spam emails into my normal account. However I forgot my password and had to do a password reset. Now when I enter Relay it does not give me the option to delete the original created alias address. It only gives me the option to create more alias addresses. How do I find and delete the original alias address so I can stop the spam arriving in my normal mail. Or when you reset the relay account does it automatically delete any create alias addresses.

I purchased an OlnyKey to use for two factor authorization (2fa) for social media and other sites. I set it up and tried to sign in to Facebook. Immediately a drop down window opened saying Windows indicated it had to be registered with Firefox. I clicked okay and followed the steps to create a PIN which I did. Then it said to touch my Security Key which I did and another drop down box opened stating the device failed to register.

I tried this three times, now what? Why do I need to register my Security Key? How can I see if it is registered with Firefox? What is keeping it from connecting to Facebook?

Everything I read and watch does not expose this kind of problem. I don't know how to see if the problem is Firefox, Windows, or Facebook! UGH

Help!

I know firefox version 98.0 changed how downloads work, but I have my settings for downloads set to "Always ask you where to save files" and specifically for PDF files, I have the action set to "Always ask". However, when I click download on a PDF file and then select "open with firefox" as the action option, the file not only opens in the browser, but also gets downloaded automatically without even allowing me to select where. Is this intended behavior? There are lots of times I just want to view a file and not actually download it, and this is quite annoying.

Under my settings / applications, PDF files are listed twice as (application/force-download) AND (application/pdf). As a result, when I open a PDF file from within Firefox, the file opens AND downloads. I do NOT want it to download and ONLY want it to open. I have changed the setting to 'Always ask' and every other setting available, yet it continues to download AND open. How to I change it to OPEN only and NOT download?

I have noticed that when I go to a private window to search youtube for "Dimash reaction" ( I like to listen to some each day), that when I go back into the regular browser window, youtube suggests dimash videos. I do my search in the private window so that youtube won't flood the page with those music videos since I mainly watch news clips and if it's flooded with music videos I have to delete them one at a time over and over. How is it that the 'private' browser window is somehow visible to youtube?

Hello,

Trying to just preview my rss feeds for my website. Before, typing the RSS feed link into the browser would at least produce some results. Now, it just asks to save file. I only want to preview it.

I've read around and can't find much on the actual feed reader side of firefox. On wikipedia, it says firefox still has a feed reader built in. Firefox support pages say live bookmarks were removed, etc. I just want to view the feed in browser.

I downloaded an addon "Feed Preview" or something similar, now I can view the feed in browser again. The thing is, this addons says it has access to ALL of my firefox data. I already feel some kind of way about downloading this app and then after asks for perms. So I'd prefer not to just use any "addon". RSS feed reader should come basic for browsers.

What is the best way around this? or is my browser just bugged?

So, recently I cleared my history and cookies in Firefox. After doing this I am unable to log into Netflix with Firefox. It tells me that my password is incorrect. I can log into Netflix with Chrome and Safari. I even updated my Netflix password. Any suggestions?

Hi! Since updating Firefox to 98.0 I've been experiencing sudden performance drops(lags/freezes/stutters) while scrolling. `about:support` page shows that compositing is `WebRender`. The issue occurs with fresh profile without any addons installed and also in `firefox-nightly`(100.0a1). However, scrolling is totally smooth in 97.0.2 and earlier versions of Firefox.

What changes in Firefox 98 could cause this, and are there any settings in `about:config` I can try to tune to solve the issue? These are the settings I've always used, and, as I mentioned, scrolling was smooth before 98.0:

gfx.webrender.all = true general.smoothScroll.mouseWheel.durationMaxMS = 400 general.smoothScroll.mouseWheel.durationMinMS = 200 mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount = 40 mousewheel.system_scroll_override.enabled = false

With Firefox 98.0 and macOS 10.15.7, Firefox window fills entire display screen and does not show edges to be able to drag in window size. Is there a way to reduce the displayed window to be smaller than the screen size? Thank you!

I located an article on this site that provides lengthy explanation on how to do this but my concern is if I copy and past the code and it is not placed exactly right my browser is non functional. All I want to do is widen vertical scroll bar, it seems crazy I have to know code to do this. ANy other suggestions would be very much appreciated. It is very frustrating.

I'm new to Firefox and having problems getting started. I am 78 and not good with tech stuff.

Firefox was working quite well and then suddenly things went wrong. There was a "sidebar" open the entire length of the screen at the left, it usually showed history. My add-ons showed at the top right after the search bar, they disappeared. Bitwarden was one of them that I use all the time to log into websites. I think they disappeared when I closed the sidebar at the left. I would like to know how to open the sidebar and how to restore the add-ons. (They still show and are turned on under Add-ons Manager.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated as my Firefox is not usable in it's present form.

THANKS, chubbles

FIREFOX IS A WASTE OF COMPUTER SPACE

I am fine with the way Firefox allows me to order my bookmarks. I do NOT want my bookmarks to be ordered alphabetically, certainly not. But what I dislike is that Firefox insists that the bottom bookmark in my left bookmark column is something called "other bookmarks", and my bookmarks always open with that row bolded, so that my collection of "other bookmarks" occupies the entirety of the right column. This is not what I want. "Other bookmarks" are of no interest to me. I want the bookmark I have placed at the top of the left column, (the bookmark of maximum interest) to be where my bookmarks open. if I was writing a book, it would be the first chapter. I do not want my attention to be drawn to "other bookmarks" anywhere, I want to be rid of it, and if it cannot be got rid of, I do not want my bookmarks to open with that row bolded.

This comment is illustrated with an image of what is happening now whenever I open my bookmarks.
