Firefox Community Forum

if I had 30 bookmarks, there was no problem to sort all by name, if I´ve had 40 bookmarks I must sort it 3 times but then it works. But now I have more than 50 bookmarks and I testet it every update but it dosen´t work, why ?

In recent activity if I click the kebab menu and select Delete from history the thumbnail disappears to reappear again after a couple of seconds. Only after repeatedly clicking Delete from history the activity actually disappears.

Is this normal behaviour?

The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem.

Hello,

Several sites incorrectly tag their username (and sometimes also password) forms and this prevents firefox's automatic username/password autofil dropdown.

Is there a button or some way to force the autofil to appear? It is a pain in my behind that I have to manually open my passwords in firefox and find the page I am already on and copy/paste these things, just because some websites have strange HTML.

I understand that firefox can't override the HTML of these pages, but there should be some hotkey to force open the autofill dropdown (ideally with some sort of search function or selection based on url). It does also need to have an option to select whether I am pasting username or password.

Hello, since your I have donwloaded your latest Firefox update I have multiple issues with Firefox 147.0.4 on macos Tahoe version 26.3

If you google "using firefox on mac os tahoe 26.3" you will see that I am not alone.

I have been using Firefox for many years, and do not understand why newer Firefox versions are not fully tested before being released on the "market".

You are not alone; Google has also the same problem on macos Tahoe version 26.3. Might be good to contact Apple to solve this issue,before a domino effect!

Cordially

Tonight when I went to join someone else's Zoom and he (host) allowed me to share from my screen, an issue arose that I am baffled about. The message was: Your browser is preventing access to your share screen." My Browser is Firefox. and it is up to date. How do I resolve this? Thank you very much!

Just to let you know, when I am host I can share. Would appreciate this help greatly!

Very often, Firefox asks at startup: “Should I open Firefox every time I restart my computer?” I don’t need this function, how can I remove this request forever?

There are only two buttons: 1. Yes, open Firefox 2. Not now :(

I changed nothing in settings, and doubled back and checked, still set to open windows/tabs where left off, and not to delete site data/cookies when closed, but every time I open the app, nothing, no history, no tabs, have to re-sign-in to everything. Why might this be, as it didn't seem like an update happened in line with this occuring, or anything at all for that matter that would change how things behave.

So, my issue started off with just new tabs loading slow/not properly loading at all. So I attempted a Firefox refresh as I've seen some people suggest only to see that there was no Firefox refresh button in my settings. So I went through the process of uninstalling it, but was paused when it prompted me to perform a Firefox refresh, but it did nothing. So I went and actually uninstalled it and reinstalled it and nothing changed except for the fact that now my New Tab page was completely blank and I couldn't search anything at all. I restarted my laptop to see if it'd help (it didn't) But when I went to try and uninstall it again, it wasn't listed in with my apps so I just deleted it. I installed it again, still nothing. Did the previous step of deleting it and reinstalling it again and still nothing. As a last ditch effort, I tried to install a slightly different version of Firefox and although I had to go through the whole process of installing it this time, the result is still the same with my New Tab being completely blank and I'm unable to search anything or even open the settings Honestly about ready to change browsers even though I've only been using it for about four days

I use Firefox on both my work and home computer as well as my Android phone. I have for years, and until I got a Surface 8 Pro with Windows 11 Home (in case that matters), the behavior across devices was generally consistent, especially after I created a profile and signed into it across all of my devices. Firefox on that device, though, has given me a couple weird differences/issues.

First, I've noticed that the pop-up blocker seems much more "sensitive" on my home computer than on any other devices. A link I click on on my home computer will trigger the pop-up blocker, whereas my work computer will just send me to the link. An example where I see a different behavior is on the Wordle home page: https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html. When I click the light bulb at the top on my home computer, the pop-up blocker is triggered, but when I do the same from my work computer, it just goes straight to the link that icon is for.

Now more recently, I've found that sound from a webpage (say YouTube) played on my home computer comes out of the speakers regardless of whether there's a device in the audio jack, which of course my work computer does not do. I've confirmed it's a Firefox problem and not a larger device problem, as other programs output to the audio jack when something is plugged in there just fine.

I've tried resetting my device obviously, and I've even tried doing a Firefox refresh, progressively deleting more and more profile information, and finally uninstalling Firefox completely, removing the Mozilla folder in %APPDATA%, and removing the registry entries that Revo Uninstaller identified, to try to make it as close as possible to the "factory" default, all to no avail.

Images appear fine, but lately I cannot see embedded videos on websites when I'm browsing. This is a recent change (past couple of weeks).

I can view the same videos using another browser, so I think this is a firefox setting possibly.

All my tabs (I think they're tabs - on the menu bar just below the main menu at the top left of the home screen - have disappeared. I checked history, hoping to replace them and the returned. But now they've vanished again. Also, when FF opens, email screen displayed is 'primary' and it says there are no primary messages. I've always used 'all mail' so I go to that site (which is in a folder on the menu which is below the address bar) and click on it to get to mail.

How can I restore the missing tabs which were on the menu bar just above the address bar?

Many thanks.

I don't know what this means and how I can get rid of it. Is it important? Doug Conley
