Firefox Community Forum

For the past few days, I haven't been able to use Google Lens for searches. Why? It used to work, and I haven't changed anything on my computer.

I read the support article about this problem: everything seems fine, Google is definitely my search engine... Can you tell me what I need to do to get it working again? Thank you

This concerns the display of bookmarksto the the left of the main display. Fot the record, this is installed om Magea Linux, vers 9, from the OS repository, and is Firefox vers 140.4.0esr ( 64-bit). Up until recently the display was variable in width, and once the box for 'show bookarks' was ticked, the bookmarks display opened in any new ;Firefox' brought up. With the two new features, I have a pair of niggles. One, is that the new sidebar, being fixed width, cannot be reduced. Taking up more screen 'Real Estate', that I consider would be better utilised for the main panel. The other niggle, is that ticking 'Show bookmarks' is not permanent and has to be re-ticked, for any new Firefox' display. I have another machine running the same version of Mageia. I opened this today, and it, while still showing the same version of Firefox, displays the old version. Perhaps, since the Mageia support section have not yet.sent a prompt for update. My query, is. Is it possible for me to return to the old style display, or is there a setting that will do so. The new display, having several options, is possibly an advance. But, for me, bookmarks display is paramount.

Thanks, Rod Goslin

If I click "Display the progress of ongoing downloads" I can see what is currently downloading, but then when I click "Show All Downloads", nothing shows on the next screen. I've rebooted and restarted Firefox several times, on one or two occasions items DO come up on that next screen, but usually nothing is showing.

A couple days ago, some weird issues have started:

• All my bookmarks are gone
• Any of the buttons in the UI that open a smaller UI do not work (such as the 3 bar menu)
• Similarly, right clicking to open a menu (such as "Save Image") also does not work
• Any dropdown menus in websites seem to also not work. For example, in this very support page, I could not select an option in the "Which topic best describes your question?".

I can't restart and troubleshoot Firefox since I can't access the 3 bar menu.

I love Firefox for Mac, but, on iPad and iPhone, it's impossible to use extensions such as Winger to save tabs. Too many times, I've lost 100 to 200 tabs at once, and so I switched back on iPad and iPhone to Safari. I never had a problem with Safari's built-in window-tab saver on iPad and iPhone but lost thousands of tabs on Mac, hence my move to Firefox on Mac.

On Firefox on Mac, when I click on Firefox View, I can view tabs from other devices, but there's no way to copy multiple tab links at once (you have to go one by one). If I ever were to shift back to Firefox for iPad and iPhone, does anyone know of a way to easily save 100 to 200 tabs from these devices?

I would rather use Firefox because I can't stand how Safari opens links from outside Safari, forcing the use of some new default window over the named window I already have open. It's so much work to micro-manage this browser.

Thank you kindly and enjoy a super day!

(not the first time) Mozilla closed all my open tabs... Well, maybe she was sick of the number of them... However, from the magazine, "recently closed tabs" are not restored, even though there is such a function.... And also - I use exclusively portable versions of the fox... When I click on the link, somewhere, in Telegram or on... dating site (joke), they open them, not my beautiful chanterelle, but some faceless dog, that is, firefox, absolutely clean, without themes, without extensions, without bookmarks... Why is it happening?

I reinstall my pc and wanted to resync firefox, but wrote password wrong few times and went with suggestion to reset it through the mail, but my histroy and bookmarks not there? Is there possiblity to recover if I know my old password???

What version of Firefox actually allows you to add extensions? I'm running the most current version of Tumbleweed that ships with 144.0. Attempts to add extensions just sit there doing nothing until I close the tab. This sort of worked some time ago (I forget the version) but the inability of Firefox to allow add-ons/extensions is getting to be a joke. There are other browsers out there, ya know.

Die blaue Titelleiste inklusive dem X zum Schließen des FF ist ständig weg und kann nur mit 2x FN11 drücken wieder angezeigt werden. Alle Einstellungen sind korrekt und mehrfach überprüft. Auch jetzt, während des Schreibens dieser Frage, ist die Titelleiste weg. Sieht nach einem wirklich nervigen BUG aus.

Yesterday, Firefox upgraded to version 145.0 on my laptop. Since then I have been unable to access the internet using WiFi. Everything worked fine with the former version of Firefox 144.? My desk top uses an Ethernet connection to the internet, and the latest version of Firefox is working fine.

Hi,

I'm looking to clear my history (as one does) but upon clearing my history as shown in the picture, I still get search recommendations in the search bar.

Do I need to tick more boxes ? I would still like to keep my stored credentials and forms and to ultimately keep search history results (just clear the ones i have right now), is there anyway of doing this ?

I have a <textarea> in a form that upon each read from firefox it keeps adding extra line feeds.

<TEXTAREA

  wrap="hard" 
  name="PJ3NTE" 
  id="PJ3NTE" 
  rows="4" 
  cols="65"
>hello how are you doing ? i am fine this is going to go n and one and on again</TEXTAREA>

becomes: >hello how are you doing ? i am fine this is going to go n and

one and on again</TEXTAREA>

then: >hello how are you doing ? i am fine this is going to go n and

one and on again</TEXTAREA>

Chrome works line. It doesn't keep adding new line feeds. I just noticed this this other week. I'm on windows 145.0

Firefox repeatedly crashes on my, multiple times a day. I'dc really like to NOT have to change my default browser to Chrome.

What happens is that Firefox freezes, and I get a white bar at the top telling me so. I get a popup box asking if I want to close Firefox or wait for it to respond. Waiting doesn't work, so I always have to close Firefox. When I reopen it, fortunately all m,y open tabs are retained, but it crashes again within minutes or seconds as soon as I click on anything.

There only thing that seems to work is a reboot of my PC. But the respite is short before Firefox crashes again.

I've disabled most plugins, but that hasn't helped. Is there a way to create an event log within Firefox that I can share with someone at Mozilla to help e debug the issue? It's got to be something local rather than Firefox itself; I can't imagine this is happening to most users.

Chase bank online is now requiring a later version of Firefox than my Mac will support. I currently have Firefox version 115.30.0esr. Now I am unable to access my account on line to see purchases. What is my work around? I thought there was software that could be installed to "spoof" chase into thinking I had a later version of Firefox. Both of our computers are from 2011 and 2012 so neither one will accept the latest version of Firefox. Many thanks in advance for any advice.
