Firefox Support Forum

In sites such as Instagram and LinkedIn (these were the ones I noticed this happening), after I close an overlay containing a post and its comments by clicking outside of it, it starts selecting everything, as if I'm holding the mouse button. Clicking again stops selecting. And as fas as I know, this is only in Firefox (doesn't happen in Chrome nor Edge).

I've tried disabling all extensions, and it still happens.

I've also posted this as a reddit thread here, with a video attached showing the problem happening: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/19d2fv6/in_firefox_everytime_i_close_an_overlay_it_starts/

my browser was running insanely slow so i decided to close it out only to open it back up to being logged out, tabs gone (but still synced for now) and at least 1 extension which is now no longer available for download gone! i'm p***ed mostly because the extension (enhancer for youtube) was the only good one of it's kind and now it's gone for absolutely no reason. i did not clear any data or cookies prior to this so why?!

Only one bitchute vid-site won't play in firefox, all other vids play. Other subscribers have same problem. USA Prepares https://www.bitchute.com/video/lsqwdjy27l0w/ https://www.bitchute.com/channel/rongibsonchannel2/

Almost every Firefox update for the last year has deleted my container tabs.

More recently, while reconstructing my containers for several Google accounts, I pin them as I create each tab. Next time I restart Firefox the pinned containers are there but blank when opened and new unpinned tabs appear for the same containers.

I have a Ledger Nano S crypto wallet. Not all cryptos show directly in my Ledger and I wish to use MetaMask to view them. When using Chrome, with my Ledger connected and active, my Ledger doesn't connect due to "unknown error". When using Firefox, with my Ledger connected and active, my Ledger similarly doesn't connect due to "unknown error" although in this case there was an additional screen note from Firefox regarding "ongoing problems connecting Ledger devices to MetaMask (origin April 23?)". When using Brave browser there is not a problem viewing my tokens (although a different problem is that I lose token upgrade functionality - hence my desire to connect Ledger to MetaMask using a different browser - preferably Firefox). I use the latest versions of the browsers and Windows 10 in conjunction with Avast One anti-virus. I’ve also cleared cookies and cache several times. All drivers and software are up to date. Any thoughts on rectifying my connection problem please?

Hello all, there's quite a few threads on spacing in the message composition window but I have not seen a thread on this specific issue. Even though I have changed the style to "body text" instead of "paragraph" when I type text and then in a subsequent line start a numbered list or a bulleted list using the format buttons, thunderbird automatically includes an extra space. I don't want this. Is there a way to eliminate this extra line?

I've attached an image to show what I mean.

thanks

Hello, I'm a Firefox user.

One day, my computer auto-restarted for some unknown reason.

But since then, the shortcut pages saved in my Firefox have been initialized.

It's not a bookmark. The first page website shortcut page.

However, when I enter the URL link again, there is no reaction.

What should I do in this case?

Why does Firefox think me location is India when I am not?

Pocket gives me mostly stories about India. British Airways website also gave me India as my location.

I went to Settings > Cookies and Site Data And clear all the data.

But still getting India stories in Pocket.

or does everyone get loads of stories about India in Pocket?

I using a local address for a 3d printer running Klipper/Mainsail. How can I disable the popup "website does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you" every time I log on or change page?

Why does my SharePoint and OneDrive not open in my Firefox browser? I can access Office 365 incl. word, excel, PowerPoint exc. but as soon as I login or go to SharePoint/ OneDrive after some loading time it states incorrect account. I can login with no problems on my other browsers on the same computer.

There are some websites that modifying the history and when I wish to go back, I am being taken back directly to home page, or worse in some others, being looped back into the current url again.

In the second one, I know the website adding a duplicate url to the history so if I right click and select the 3rd one I can get out of the loop but it's just rather quite annoying.

Is it possible to prevent these websites meddling with my browsing history? (without disabling the javascript)

Thank you very much in advance.

W10 on laptop. FF open in one window.Click on link to another webpage in Outlook mail used to bring up a new page in existing instance of FF. Now it opens another window for FF without the extensions in the first window.

I use ZIMBRA mail through FIREFOX... I still can not manage HTML messages. I can display them but can't answer or transfer them ... Tell me the proper settings, please !
