Firefox Community Forum

The to bar on my browser window - the one above the menu bar - keeps disappearing. I don't know what it's called or I'd tell you, but it's the one in the attached screenshot that says, "Get Support...", etc.

Ever since the "new" profiles were introduced (not to be confused with those you can access and edit via about:profiles - naming both profiles is immensely confusing tbh), the name of the profile you are currently using is added to the taskbar element. For example, if the support main page os your current open tab, the taskbar element will say: Mozilla Support- Profile name- Mozilla Firefox. I see no need for this, so I would appreciate an option to remove the profile name

Hi everyone, since the last update all of the text in my Bookmarks side bar has changed to white against a light grey background, making it virtualy unreadable (image attached). I didn't change it and have no idea how to change it to another colour and make it visible.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi! I'm having a really weird problem with fonts in Firefox on my Macbook Pro M1 14-inch 2021. Specifically, the fonts in the bookmark sidebar appear to be corrupted and replaced with nonsense characters that have a lot of accents. I've tried rebooting, clearing all Firefox cookies and site data, reinstalling Firefox from an earlier version on my Apple Time Machine (from a time when I didn't have this problem), checking to see if the problem persisted when all extensions were disabled (it did, even after restart with all extensions disabled), and a reboot in safe mode. The reboot in safe mode temporarily fixed the problem and I was pretty excited, but it came back. I tried updating my Mac from Sequoia to the most recent OS (Tahoe 26.2), and the problem was still there, so I tried rebooting in Safe Mode again and the problem went away, but only while I remained in Safe Mode. This time the problem came back when I reopened in regular mode. So whatever the problem is, it's something that Safe Mode counteracts. Can someone help me figure out what's wrong?

Is there a way to make firefox show long titles in popup on hover. The default behavior is to show link address which is redundant because the link address is already showing in the bottom left corner on hover, but long titles are partially hidden.

I recently had this flower appear after 'allowinig F.Fox to detect devices, before I used a EHD for backups TIme machine and transfers. I have unplugg EHD, turned off "hanndoff" in general settings prefs, and tried dragging icon in applications folder to replace flowered one-nothing worked. I have no downloads in progress, and it doesn't show this on my 3 other Macs and iphone? Wiish I could just hover mouse arrow over it and get more direct info/answer... John-MA

Why can't anyone fix this issue? Every day I have to go to about:config, enter "mica" then change from false to true or true to false to get these buttons to show up. It's ridiculous. I am currently using Firefox version 146.1 on Windows 11. Also, please note if I change the windows widget to true these buttons show up and are usable. The next days I have to change the windows widget to false and they show up and are usable so they work whether or not the widget is set to true or false. The problem is having to change the setting DAILY. I should not be having to do this.

I want the whole screen when I press F11. But the address bar and tabs bar are no longer hidden. How can I hide them, or better make F11 hide them as it did before.

Firefox on Windows 11 has suddenly and without my apparent action started automatically hiding the tab bar and the address bar to give all the vertical space to the current tab. I do not like this (I have big monitors and I want those bars always visible)

How do I turn this one and why did it turn on in the first place?

Thank you for having the Q&A facility.

About 4 years ago, the Firefox developers apparently had their brains removed and decided that it was a good idea to couple the light/dark mode selection to the font used in the theme, which of course makes absolutely no sense other than to annoy the users. There used to be a workaround for this (see this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1366357), but as of the latest update the workaround doesn't work properly anymore. No matter what I try, some menus remain dark unless I switch to a light theme. This is completely unacceptable. Mozilla needs to end this stupid behavior asap, as they should have four years ago already

In the last few weeks, the customary symbols at the top right of the Mozilla Firefox screen ( X, -, etc.) have disappeared; meaning that I cannot minimize, maximise, or close the browser screen.

I cannot find a solution online. It is very frustrating not to be able to minimize in particular.

These symbols appear as normal on other browsers, and other programs.

Could you please suggest a solution? Thank you

I've started using the new PWA feature in Firefox. Some of the websites I've installed show a generic globe from 4 black lines icon. I am assuming because the favicon is not available or something.

I've changed the shortcut icon by going into the Windows properties dialog. It does change the icon on the taskbar while the PWA is closed, but as soon as I open it, it reverts the globe icon.

Is there a way I can manually change the icon the PWA is using?

My bookmarks side bar font changed color from black to white, how do I get it back to black?

I can't seem to find where the font color is available to change colors.
