When I turn on "Recommended stories" in settings, I get blank boxes instead of the news feed when I start a new tab. This problem started two-to-three weeks ago. Before that, it was working fine. I don't know what caused this problem or how to fix it.

Thank you for taking the time to look into this issue.

I'm using Firefox in a kiosk-mode application, on a Raspberry Pi based system, started from a bash script like this:

# Clear history etc. to prevent problems if unit is not perfectly shut down rm -v -r /home/pi/.mozilla/firefox/*.default rm -v -r /home/pi/.mozilla/firefox/*.default-esr rm -v -r /home/pi/.cache/mozilla/firefox/*.default rm -v /home/pi/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini

sleep 2

/usr/bin/firefox-esr --kiosk -url http://127.0.0.1


However on booting I get a banner from Mozilla along the top of the screen saying: "Firefox automatically sends some data to Mozilla so that we can improve your experience [Choose what I share]"

This is not acceptable in kiosk mode, as it would give users access to the configuration as well as being a visual annoyance. How can we disable this?

I use containers to segregate cookies amongst specific groups as I desire, further, I use the Mozilla Multi-Account Containers extension so i can sync these containers across devices and clear cookies for individual containers. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be any way for me to clear the cookies of all my non-containerised browsing. In Firefox settings, I can clearly see that I can clear ALL my data, but I only want the data that has been used when I select "No container" for a new tab to be cleared. I am unsure if this is a missing feature or I am just unable to find it.

In the images provided you can see that you can manage your containers with this add-on and clear the storage and cookies for individual containers, however, this list lacks the "No Container" (which I guess is a container of its own) and the general firefox clear storage and cookies menu clears everything, including my containerised storage and cookies.

Ever since the latest Firefox upgrade to version 135.0, my Epson 3760 printer pauses between each page when more than one page is requested to print continuously. This pause before each page didn't happen before the upgrade. I now have to go into my printer queue and select each item in the queue to have it resume printing - one at a time. I'm on Windows 11 with an LG laptop.

For about a year I have, several times, tried to use a link or a pop up that doesn't work in Firefox but can be accomplished in Safari. Today, I used a credit card to pay for something on the UFT.org website. It worked. I needed to make another purchase on the same website and page but I got a message that there was an error with my credit card info. I tried again. I tried another credit card. I signed out and back in and repeated everything and still got the same message. I copied the url, went to Safari, pasted the url, entered my info and was successful in making the payment. I am using Firefox 133.0.3. What might be happening to cause these problems?

This mandatory upgrade completely illustrates the point of why so many never did. Upgrades tend to lose functionality- add-ons, etc, that we're accustomed to and still work quite well with don't function anymore with browser upgrades, and there's no viable replacement available so we stick with what works and find other ways to compensate for any perceived vulnerabilities. Now, like Microsoft, you're forcing consumers to do things they never wanted to and taking away the reasons for using this browser to begin with. Given that we've been able to use older versions for years with no issues, there's no sugarcoating that this is all on you, Mozilla. Calling this course of action disappointing is a gross understatement and nothing more than keeping things polite.

I have always used Firefox to log in to my Tesco Bank account, but for the past few days I am getting this message that Access is denied on this server, yet I can log in OK from other browsers. I am based in the UK.

I use a laptop, Windows 10, have done disk clean up, removed cookies & cache - all the usual stuff, but still get the same message. All other websites are working fine, any ideas why I am not allowed to go into my Tesco Bank account when using Firefox?

Any help much appreciated.

So I'm in the process of switching to Firefox again now that native vertical tabs are an option. I'd like to be able to drag maximized windows by just flicking my mouse to the top anywhere and dragging, but it won't allow me unless "Menu Bar" or "Title Bar" is enabled. I'd rather not enable either as I like how it looks without them...

I did manage to add the space I wanted by adding this to the "userChrome.css" file:

  1. nav-bar {

margin-top: 15px !important; }

but it seems to only be cosmetic and won't allow me to use it for dragging the window...
