Firefox Community Forum

Recently installed updated Firefox (131.0.3). Lost ability to print simplified version. If I go to troubleshoot mode the option shows up, but I have no add ins, extensions, or anything. The only change to browser function I've done is homepage and clear history after Firefox closes. Something is goofy here. I deleted and reinstalled Firefox with no change to condition.

I can't find sometimes very important replies to my emails because they are filed not in the chronological order in which they arrive in my computer but are connected in the group of the original Subject. How can I change that? Thank you. Email removed PS. I use Win11

for some reason this last update is now blocking my banking website. They recently updated but i have not had trouble until Firefox updated. now i just get a Blank screen when i try to log in so SHOULD I CHANGE TO MICROSOFT EXPLORES AS MY MAIN BROWSER NOW SINCE MORE AND MORE OF MY BOOKMARKS ARE NO LONGER ACCESSIBLE USING FIREFOX?????

Hi community,

I want to configure a guest account on a ubuntu system. This is done by configuring a standard account and link the guest account to the standard account.

For firefox that means, that the .mozilla directory of the guest account points to the .mozilla-directory of the standard account. (The files in the standard account are not changes, so every new guest session starts with the same preconfigured environment.)

When starting firefox in the guest session, most of the settings, e.g. homepage, installed language packs, coockie settings, are recognized. Strange enough, the language packs have to be enabled again. Somehow firefox in the guest session realizes that firefox is run the first time in the newly created guest account. In my use case, firefox starts up in English because the German language pack is disabled. In the configured standard account the language packs are enabled, active, etc..

With thunderbird the behaviour is different: Copying the .thunderbird (or appdata/roaming/thunderbird-folder in Windows) leads to a completely configured thunderbird. No "first run"-questions or -settings have to be answered.

My questions are: 1) How does firefox realize that is has a "first run" situation? Why is copying the .mozilla-folder not enough for transfering the profile(s)? How can firefox be configured to use the existing .mozilla-directory without asking first run questions? 2) How can firefox in a first run situation (with complete profiles and correct profile.ini) be started with e.g. an enabled German language pack.

Thanks a lot

Martin

HI,

I'm wanting to add new font styles in the reader view but i didn't find any option or setting to perform this action. There is a way to do this kind of configuration?

I was excited to see that Firefox had support for Canadian English, however the dictionary seems to be missing numerous words and I get spelling errors for words like "lasagna."

Is this a bug or is the dictionary just barely populated with words and missing a tremendous amount?

(UPDATE : FIXED on 16th of OCT,2024) I am using windows 10 and since the last update I noticed a duplicate firefox icon is opening everytime I clicked on the main firefox icon. Attaching a screenshot.

HELP! I've been with Firefox for decades and I've lost the Icon for Firefox (left main screen) and the icon on my lower power bar to summons Firefox. I'm asking you as there is no phone number for Firefox support and I need those icons. PLEASE HELP or show me how to re-create those icons.

Greetings, I added the Grammarly and Last Pass apps to the add-ons list. Can you tell me how I can add their icons to my Firefox toolbar. Or provide me with a phone number that I could call Firefox support to help answer this questions?

Thanks, Mike

Gmail doesn't open after updating to version 131.0

This issue is also with certain other sites.

Attached is a screenshot of the error page.

These sites are accessible in other browsers.

I am not sure if I selected the correct topic. In the last 3 weeks I keep on getting the following See Attachment I have no idea what it is about and therefor no idea on how to deal with it. Any help would be very much appreciated. Regards Ilio Pieroni

Hi - have been having an issue since 128 where I can't select items in certain menus in Firefox with the mouse. Each time I open Firefox, it works once. Subsequently, the focus in the menu is completely off from where I put my mouse, and I can't click anything. (I would upload a video, but there doesn't seem to be a way). An example of the behavior is: -hamburger menu open. Mouse is on 'Translate page', but focus is on 'save page as'.

• This happens with both the trackpad and the mouse.
• I don't experience this issue with other applications.
• I can navigate some of the menu options with the keyboard. For example, in the Bookmark menu I can select Save, but not Remove bookmark.
• I don't have any issue with the main nav bar (File, Edit, etc)

This applies to for example: Save bookmarks (cmd+d), Hamburger Menu, Update reminders, and the new Translation dialog (have attached screenshots of some affected items). I can't inspect them to see if they are all the same component that is causing the issue, because they disappear if you choose Inspect. (I'm unable to see a "Disable popup autohide" setting in my meatball menu, as described here). I also tried the steps listed [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../957538] here. Things I have tried:

• resetting PRAM/SMC just in case it's my machine
• disabling hardware acceleration
• starting in safe mode
• refreshing Firefox
• updating to the latest version (thrice)

Hello everyone,

I'm really hoping to achieve a streamlined interface in Firefox without the clutter of two separate bars.

Here’s what I’m looking for: I want the tab bar and toolbar combined into a single bar, similar to Safari on Mac. Specifically:

   The forward and backward arrows should be positioned to the left of the tabs.
   The search bar should be smaller and also located to the left of the tabs.
   The application menu button and extensions button should be moved to the top right corner (on the same bar as the tabs).
   I want to completely remove the separate toolbar, as it takes up unnecessary space.

I’ve attached an image for clarity.

I'm currently using Firefox 132 64-bit on an Intel Mac running macOS Catalina.

I’ve already tried the Neptune theme from this link: Neptune Firefox. The creator is amazing, and the theme is exactly what I need to keep me using Firefox exclusively. However, despite following the instructions carefully, I still only see the layout shown in my attached image. I can't seem to get everything into one bar.

I don’t have experience with coding CSS, and I currently lack the time to learn it. I’m unsure if the Neptune theme should be selectable in the themes menu, but it doesn’t appear there. However, I know this design is possible. I’ve searched various forums and read many threads, but none have provided a solution to my problem.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance in achieving the design shown in the attached image. Whether it’s through a theme, custom CSS code, a plugin, or any other method, I’m open to suggestions as long as it works. Thank you!

Have a service ticket website we use (EasyVista) that should be form populating previous entries however this is not happening in FireFox. Doing this on Chrome works properly. I've included screenshots showing both.

Autofill is properly set. Below is all config entries that have "autofill" in their name:
