Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

Hi,

After a new windows installation, firefox opens a new tab (newtab override) and places the cursor in the upper adressbar. I am looking for a way so that the cursor appears in the search bar in the middle. It happens with the newtab override and also without it. I could not find anything on helpsites and fora.

Does this look familiar to you ?

laptop and desktop both wd10 ff 88. laptop work fine, dsktop started failing yesterday. have uninstalled ff on dsktop and only added one add on-keeper, still fails icon log in. login from vault work fine on dsktop, but if you can't use icon , you have to copy/paste each uid & pswd. this is really slow. need icon fixed.

Hi, Since 2-3 days, I can no longer access a specific website (before all was fine, and I still have access to others website without issue). It's only from Firefox desktop, from Firefox android it works, from Edge or Chrome too (on same computer). Same issue on my laptop (with previous firefox version and latest). It's a "loading error", maybe "time out" ("Le délai d’attente est dépassé" in french).

I tried to do the things suggested in help, as: _delete cookies and cache _check proxy config (not used) _enable "network.dns.disableIPv6" and "network.dns.disablePrefetch" _disable extensions (also tried debug mod)

Also tried the 'ipconfig /flushdns', before seeing that same issue on the laptop. I use Avast, but I don't think it's because of him.

Any idea please?

I keep having problems with Firefox not loading certain pages despite that Microsoft Edge works fine. I've cleared my cache and cookies, tried disabling my firewall, and also tried Safe/troubleshooting mode and the problem was still there. Facebook Messenger and Google Hangouts are two of the ones that regularly don't work (and sometimes Submittable, Outlook, and Google Docs), but sometimes I can just refresh the page half a dozen times and then it works. I moved and switched internets two weeks ago and it may have started then (or a few days after). I also tried turning off the proxy and disabling Ipv6.

My comp: Windows 10, 64-bit, HP laptop, new in December 2019. Processor: AMD Ryzen 3 3200U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx.

Hello, I have recently purchased a new laptop computer as my old one crashed. It is running Windows 10 which is new and unfamiliar to me. I am also using Firefox V85 as my default browser. In building my new bookmarks folder list I found the folder icons are coloured a nasty shade of grey. However, running Firefox on older operating systems (eg XP or Windows 8.1) the folders are a pleasing yellow colour. I have exhausted myself trawling the web, Youtube, and the Firefox help topics in trying to find a way to change the folder icon colour, but with no sucess. Please accept my apologies as I suspect that this question will have been asked before, but I cannot find any references to it. If anyone knows how to do this, please be aware that, whilst I am literate, I don't necessarily understand arcane computer terminology so I would welcome a simple key stroke by key stroke walk through. If there is a fix, it needs to work in both the Toolbar and the Sidebar. Many Thanks Chris

Firefox v88.0.1 on Win 10 Pro 20H2 PC, Windows Security (Windows Defender). All fully up-to-date.

This problem only started recently: When link is clicked in FF to open certain pdf files, a new, fully formatted FF window opens, but the body is blank white and the pdf never loads. Doesn't happen with all pdf files listed on the "referring" page, but just some of them on a certain well-known and trusted web site, and it's very reproducible.

Setting FF to open pdf files in Adobe Reader doesn't help. Same ones open but the others still won't. Other people tell me they have no problems opening those pdf files in FF.

I completely uninstalled and re-installed FF but that didn't help. Doesn't matter how I set the security/privacy options, have Ghostery on or off (only extension installed). Use recommended performance settings is enabled, DNS over HTTPS is off, tracking protection can be standard or strict, etc.

If I click Manage Exceptions under Enhanced Tracking Protection, there's no way to enter any exceptions so I can't exempt the website in question.

If I keep trying to open one of those pdf files, FF becomes totally unresponsive. Task Manager lists ~4-5 FF entries but I can't End Task for most of them, and I typically have to reboot PC. Windows creates a firefox.dmp file which says: FAULTING_THREAD: 000012f8 PROCESS_NAME: firefox.exe ERROR_CODE: (NTSTATUS) 0x80000003 - {EXCEPTION} Breakpoint A breakpoint has been reached. EXCEPTION_CODE_STR: 80000003

I've run out of things to try...

Any ideas ?

Thanks!

Hi I upgrated my ssd disk of my laptop. The old one ssd is not ble to reboot the windows 10 SO, so I'm not able to export credencials from in order to import into this new one. How can I import that credencials information to this new one? I have already created some credentials to some sites as needed to download software to work. Thanks in advance for your help Jorge Pimentel

Questions and suggestions about how far back you can back tab the linked sites. I noticed that when there are too many links in a tab, the oldest drops off and you can no longer back tab to it. (1) Is there an option to set how many links are allowed before drop off occurs? (2) When that happens, how does it affect the JAVASCRIPT history.go() function? (2a) For HTML the first time the <body onload='function()'> the function can find the programs position in the link chain by using history.length. However, later (like returning from a link) is there a way to find that position? Saving it has hazards. Maybe you can suggest a history.current element. (3) I would like a way on browser screen to make the current link the first link (drop all the prior ones). It would reduce memory requirements. (I know, this should go in the suggestion box, but it is closed).

Hello Team, I'm facing a weird issue with my Firefox Browser version 88.0.1 (64-bit). I can't use the auto-fill feature (for username and password) for the below website - https://netbanking.hdfcbank.com/netbanking/CCLogin.html I find it really irritating as every time I have to view my password to login to this website's account. I checked with Chrome, it's performing well, auto-fill feature is working for every website. Could you please check and help. Thanks! Prakash

Hey everybody,

I'm a bit worried that I can access my lockwise passwords page directly from the browser with no checks. Is there a way that I can make the browser ask for my firefox password or something before showing anybody all my accounts and their passwords in plain text?

Thanks!

Tried to sign up to Disney plus but receive an error - "We're having trouble loading a legal document for you to review..." and it says to go to the Disney plus page and view error 66 (yeah I know lol - but wishing doesn't make you a jedi).

The page advises to delete history and cookies etc which I have but I think it's another issue. I have also disabled adblock. I have included a screen shot of the console errors in the hope that this will help with advice. I am trying on my recently new laptop as my prior one has a corrupted drive and needs some work and time for me to fix.. I also tried on that laptop which uses fire fox but received the same error. I have tried on edge on this computer but get the same error. I have not tried on my mobile and may do so but I would like a possible solution to this. I have norton running but I don't know how to disable it and not sure if this is the issue. My internet is not bad so I don't think it's an Internet issue.

Any advice or suggestions would be welcome. - thanks.

I have quite a number of bookmarks which i have imported into FF. Unfortunately, i cannot find a way of adding more than one row of bookmarks in the tool bar. Is there an addon that will allow this? as i do not like the dropdown at the end of the toolbar. Please see pic for requirement. Thanks in advance.

I've been trying to figure out why my browser looks weird in several locations. You can see in the screenshots that elements I know should be round are square and dark outlines are appearing in both browser and app elements (all shown by pointers). I've tried searching the settings for accessibility features that might be making things stand out but I could not find anything like that. Any ideas?

(And yes I know I misspelled "quiz" in that subject line. You have a good eye.)

1) Reinstalled Thunderbird doesn't open. (Had a lot of professional help yesterday with settings and other things of which I didn't understood anything.) I'm 75 and do need my e-mail a.s.a.p. 2) Change Firefox language from English to Swedish. I've tried myself in the lower right corner but it always sets back to English.

Authorization for studies is unchecked on my account. When I notice that I participated in 2 remote-studies without me knowing anything about it, nor when it was done, nor why :

T =TopSites Launch Phase 3 - US v2•Terminée TopSites + Redirect Launch T=TopSites Launch Phase 3 - GB•Terminée TopSites Redirect Launch

 Why is Firefox doing  remote-studies from 2 continents on my account without my consent? nor telling me anything about it? 

It is true that I've been redirected using Firefox for quite a while with no idea why (not a good grade as far as privacy is concerned...).

I have changed my payment currency to pounds sterling as I am in the UK but your browser does NOT changed it from US dollars.I have repeatedly tried ALL the different suggestions but still have NO success.Why are you making this SO DIFFICULT???????

Part of this page is blank/broken in Firefox (am updated to most current version) and I tried in safe mode, same issue. Works fine in Chrome... Wish I could upload pictures, but size is too big and I cannot for the life of me make the screen shots smaller without losing the useful info.
