Firefox Community Forum

I've been good about avoiding being hacked or having major problems. I'm on a Mac, with the latest update. I use 1Password. I check all the urls on questionable email. I use 2fa, and check for data briefs.

Firefox has built-in security. So does Apple. And Firefox has all sorts of extensions that provide security. Privacy Badger is from the EFF. I don't know if they all do the same thing or cover things not covered. The descriptions say they protect me, but how do I know? At times, I probably have overkill.

And this doesn't even address VPNs.

Searching for "Security" in extensions shows a list of about 2,000 extensions. "Privacy" returns a list of more than 2,600. I would think that if you were confident in your security, there wouldn't be so many, and/or you wouldn't list them. Do you have a gap that we need to find an extension to cover?]

There needs to be some consistency and clarity as to what you protect against and what they claim they protect against so we know which one we really need. It feels like buying a car and being told to go find our own tires in a vast warehouse, and then search for the gears we want, etc. When we get on a plane, we don't select our own seatbelts. If on a cruise ship, we don't choose our lifevests. If that were the case, no one would get on boats or planes. By letting us fend through thousands of security programs, you shift the responsibility to us. And very few of us have enough training or knowledge to do so.

I don't expect you to be perfect, but helping us through this maze would be great. I probably know more than the average person, but it feels that

I have done something to just one web site that has made the display so small that I cannot read it or see the pictures well at all for just that one web site. I was trying to print just a selection of the web page that included some words and pictures. I was having a hard time trying to only highlight what I wanted to print. In doing that, I kept trying to make my selection several times. Somehow, I have messed the settings up for just that one web site. All of the other web sites are unchanged. I printed the instructions regarding font size, but I do not want to make overall changes. The other web sites I go to are fine. I only want to get the display corrected for this one web site I use a lot. In trying to highlight what I wanted to print, I have messed up the display for that one web site. As I wrote above, I do not want to make an overall change that will affect all of the web sites I go to using Firefox.

Can you tell me what I may have done to cause this and how to correct it? I thank you for any help you can give me. I also apologize for the length of this. This problem is hard to explain.

THANK YOU!

i have used Firefox for over 10 years. i just recently updated my Firefox app on my Macbook after i deleted my Mozilla files. will i be able to recover my extensive Bookmarks?

I updated Firefox on my laptop today after not having used it for quite some time but I'd really like to go back to how Firefox was. I can't find all my old bookmark in a drop down list as before. All there is a bar with what seems to be the most visited and on the right 'Other Bookmarks' which are none of mine but a few sites that I have no interest in. I seem to have lost the the old menu bar or at least I don't know how to get it back. I need the web developer item. I really don't like this new version.

Certain items in the browser black out completely. For instance, when I open a google sheet; in the first 3 seconds, I can see the spreadsheet. Then, suddenly, it blacks out. The same is true when I try to open pdfs. I'll add screenshots.

Jag bad om att ska nytt lösenord till ett av mina Google konto i min telefon och i telefonen kunde jag göra ett nytt. Men när jag ska logga in på datorn så står det att jag ska rensa cache och cookies och gå till Firefoxe supportwebbplats för hjälp. Undrar om det finns någon bra förklaring på detta?

bold textCanasta Palace not loading for past two days but works on other browsers. I get a black screen that looks like a glitching old PC screen.

I'm setting up a new Mac with Sonoma 14.7.1. with Firefox 133.0 (UK English).

Normally my basic zoom setting is 133% with the 'zoom text only' box UNchecked. This has always worked in the past but the settings no long 'stick' and need a reset every time Firefox is restarted.

Firefox is installed in the admin account and I'm running as user, although this has not been a problem in the past.

Is this a known bug or is there a workround for it? All help & suggestions appreciated.
