Firefox Support Forum

My setup: A remote server running CentOS Linux 7 and Firefox Browser 102.7.0esr (64-bit), accessed via RDP from a Windows 10 Enterprise laptop (No tablet)

Up in the top right corner of the Mozilla Firefox window, I have only the close button, the Minimize and the Maximize buttons are missing. In the same gnome (desktop) environment, all other running windows has those buttons available.

Note: if toggle enable or disable those buttons “Minimize” & “Maximize” [command: gnome-tweaks > Windows > "Titlebar Buttons" > toggle] , all running windows in gnome will be affected correctly, except the Firefox window, with no impact. Reinstall Firefox did not help.

This behavior started after our latest yum update recently.

When connected locally to the Linux server, there are no issues, the buttons are available. (i.e., no RDP involved)

firefox-102.7.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64 xrdp-0.9.21-1.el7.x86_64

Any tip from the community?

"Open previous windows and tabs on startup" doesn't seem to work for me - I check off the right box in Settings. (see attached file) but it doesn't work. I use Firefox as a dedicated app for one project, so would like it to open right at the four pages I always use.

Odd, because this USED to work, but has stopped doing so in the last week.

Laptop using Windows 11 64.

I downloaded the newest version, also signed in and out, but no help.

Thanks.

When I use the Firefox in full screen mode in the Mac OS, the three colored dots (red, gray and green) are automatically hidden, however if I'm switching between tabs, is normal that sometimes I go with the cursor a little bit upper, and the three dots will be automatically displayed. The problem is how these three dots are displayed, with an annoying drop-down effect. This is so annoying!!!! On safari and office tools the behavior is different, when the cursor is close to the three dots area, they just appear, and there is no annoying drop-down effect.

There is any method to change this effect on Firefox?

Using MacOS version 13.2.1

I have been using Firefox as my preferred browser for years. Recently I notice that when using Outlook mail in web the paste option is gone when replying to an email. Everything works in Chrome and Edge correctly but not Firefox. I instead get a text toolbar and an option to insert an emoji. Note this is ONLY if I am replying to an email. In new emails I am able to use the file toolbar and paste from there. Any help would be appreciated as I would like to keep using Firefox. I have tried all the online remedies including clearing the cache to no avail.

10 days ago firefox downloaded a new version. I thought I was selecting an update, but I got a Second version of Firefox. After backing up bookmarks, I deleted all of them and put another "new" version 64 bit. The website/search bar used to be on the menu Bar which I keep open all the time. These were at the top of the window. I also had a search bar at top, all the way to the right as facing it. NOW I can't seem to get the website input off the Bookmark toolbar and up to the top. I was able to get the separate search input box? What am I overlooking and I am think there is something easy I am missing. Pictures or a description of steps is helpful; I can't find a solution. MOZILLA didn't restrict placing this website box on the top menu bar, did they?

Thanks. Picture of browser is attached.

I'd like to use different themes for regular Firefox and Private Browsing mode on the same device. It seems like an easy way to keep track of where you are and what you're doing, but I haven't been able to make it work. Is that possible?

I am trying to access different audio tracks in a video on Firefox, but I am having issues. In order to have the media track button visible in the media player, I enabled media.track.enabled in about:config. However, clicking the button does not reveal a dropdown menu with the different audio tracks like it happens in Chrome. Attached follows a screenshot to illustrate the audio track button I am referencing (headphones icon). Is there another setting I can enable to allow the dropdown to show the tracks?

Is there a way to customize settings so that my address bar uses one search engine and my search bar uses another? For instance, can I set my browser so that when I type something into the address bar it will using the Yahoo! Search engine, but if I type something into the Search Bar next to it that the Search Bar uses Google Search?

I doubt this is an option the browser offers, but thought I'd ask to be sure.

My company IT department recently reset everything on my work computer, so I am trying to get Firefox to look the way it looked two weeks ago. I am on a PC, and I used to have the options for history, bookmarks, etc. in drop-down menus above the tabs bar. How do I get that back?

I know I'm late to the party...just had a Windows 11 reset...ugh. No matter. What does tweak me is that shortcut that is a nasty box. And tiny. I've searched, but can't find a good solution...all I want...is the previous, very hip, Firefox icon. IS THERE A UPDATE OR HACK FOR THIS? Really, if the nice friends at Mozilla are watching, gang, please, next update...give us back the previous shortcut logo. At least a choice? Thanks!

The refresh button (circular arrow has gone from the toolbar It is not present in the customise list It is restored if I I select 'restore defaults' but is only there for the current session and not when firefox restarts So how can I add the restore button PERMANENTLY please

I just realized that I have been using Zoom Control in Firefox to control items in Outlook. The first thing I log into is Firefox, after that, I log into Outlook 2019 and I use Zoom for Outlook since I have both Taskbars available. Some of it works and some of it doesn't. For example, I cannot change the size of messages I receive and send out. I am not referring to the text size I'm referring to the whole page of Outlook. The Zoom will zoom in or out on other parts of the page in Outlook but not the message section.

If anyone understands this I would appreciate some help. I'm already working with MS Outlook on this as well.

Thanks Rhonda

I've installed a Tree Style Tab add-on recenty. Now I want to hide horizontal tabs from the top.

I tired one solution from here: https://support.mozilla.org/pl/questions/1241745 and a solution from creator itself: https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab/wiki/Code-snippets-for-custom-style-rules#hide-horizontal-tabs-at-the-top-of-the-window-1349 (Hide horizontal tabs at the top of the window #1349, #1672, #2147) But to no avail. Can anyone help me with this?

I had some problems with Firefox and in the course of fixing things my 1Password extension disappeared.

I'm using an older version of the 1Password extension and have used it for many years, and the extension was working fine in my Win 11 computer before my "fix" of Firefox caused it to disappear. But I still have the 1Password extension executable, so I ran that and 1Password showed up in Firefox - sort of.

The regular 1Password icon looks something like a door's lock, but that lock symbol has been replaced by something that looks more like a puzzle piece. When I click on that puzzle piece I get see the window showed in the 1st image and when I put my mouse pointer in that window I'm asked to "run" the extension as shown in the 2nd image. The 1Password extension works fine but I don't understand why I'm seeing an icon that I didn't used to see and being required to "run" the extension instead of simply clicking on the icon.

Every time I use Google Meet, Firefox show me a tiny orange controller over al my desktops in Fedora Linux. It is a bit annoying an distracting. Maybe could be great this icons appear in the os panel in linux.
