Since yesterday, some of my tab groups don't fully collapse when the group tab is clicked. Instead, one tab in the group remains fully expanded, followed by a number indicating how many other tabs are in the group. A screen shot is attached.

Since I enabled tab groups some weeks ago, tab groups have behaved as expected. When the group header is clicked, the tabs in the group spread out to be visible and clickable. When the header is clicked again, all tabs in the group collapse entirely behind the header tab.

Most of my tab groups are still behaving this way. But new groups are now displaying one full tab plus the number, no matter how many other tabs or tab groups are already occupying the window.

Since the behavior is inconsistent, it doesn't seem to be a setting. Is there any fix?

For a while already (week or 2) i'm trying to activate 2FA on my account, but i always get the following error

"There was a problem enabling two-step authentication. Check that your device's clock is set to update automatically and start over."

I tried it on multiple laptops (all macbooks) with and without VPN and on an iPhone, but the error is the same everywhere.

The error shows in the final steps, after i downloaded and entered a security code. It brings me back to the account page with the error

The Bookmarks toolbar is not working since the last Firefox update on my Windows Desktop computer. Lost all the previously saved tabs and can't restore or resave. There is a message "FOr quickaccess, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. ''Manage bookmarks but all I get is an empty History pop up window.

i've tried to import my data because i have moved to another computer, i tried importing the profiles folder yet nothing happened, so i tried deleting the profiles and it's now broken.

i've tried the password thing, didn't work and the profile one didn't work either.

FirefoxからGoogle Chromeの設定が感染したかのように変更された。 誰か特殊画面で音声をRealtekに戻す方法を教えてください。

ブラウザのマークを右クリックしたら５回連続で出せたので 音源を変更してしまったが、 変更後には特殊画面が出てこなくなり変更を治せない。

The settings in Google Chrome were changed as if they had been infected from Firefox. Can someone tell me how to restore the audio to Realtek on the special screen?

When I right-clicked on the browser icon, it appeared five times in a row, so I changed the audio source, but after the change, the special screen no longer appears and I cannot undo the change.

Ever since this month's Windows 10 update I've been having problems with Firefox. I start it, the menu bar and tab comes up, but then nothing. I can't access any web sites. I tried removing the Windows update, then tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, and then messing with the settings. In each case Firefox would work for a couple of days, then I'd have to start it three or four times to get it to work, then it wouldn't work at all. I've been using it for 10 or more years now (four on this computer) and have never had any problems before. I'm loathe to switch to another browser, but if this can't be fixed I won't have any choice. This is what happens when I start the program.

Several months ago, both my Firefox and my Thunderbird stopped working. Thanks to help from this website, both were repaired. New problems have occurred and I’m here again, hoping for help. My computer is a Dell XPS desktop, running Windows 11 (Home), upgraded from Windows 10. Both FF and TB are up to date.

So, problems: TB: I turn on the computer in the morning, have a small breakfast, then start TB. The Inbox appears on the screen and then the request for my password. When I type the first letter, it doesn’t appear. I type it again, it appears, and then I finish entering the password. Works fine after that. Well, almost. I want to delete several non-consecutive emails. What used to work was to hold down Ctrl key, then click on emails to be deleted, finally release Ctrl. Now what happens is the first email to be deleted is highlighted but when I click on the second email, the first email is unselected. Then I release Ctrl, press it once again, select first email, then additional emails to be deleted. They are all highlighted. FF: Inconsistent download times. I just tried to download a webpage from one of my bookmark folders. After about 30 seconds, with nothing showing, I closed the page, then tried downloading again. Another 30 seconds, same result. I closed FF then reopened it, tried loading the same page. It appeared in just a few seconds. Opened the Google webpage, clicked Maps and received the error shown. (First image) Clicked Try Again, Maps reappeared.

Sometime after these problems began, I noticed something different on my Task Bar. When FF was not running and I hovered the pointer over the FF icon, the name of the icon was displayed but was followed by the number 2 within parentheses. (See the image). The same thing for TB. Are these numbers somehow connected to the problems I am having with TB and FF?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

My browsing history in Firefox on mac is incomplete. It used to show complete history, every site, and now only shows a few. How can I fix this to show all history?

For YEARS now firefox has had a massive memory leak that continually eats up more and more of your ram until it inevitably consumes all of it and theres nothing left for windows crashing the PC. Even on startup it uses a disproportionately large amount of ram compared to any other web browser at 2.5 gigs, but it only crawls up from there, and if you leave it running for more than 24 hours your computer will start to stutter and slow to a crawl until it consumes all 32 gigs and crashes the computer unless you regularly restart firefox. And dont give me that unused ram is wasted ram crap, I need that ram to run other programs, 32gigs of ram being used to display one web page preventing me from running any other program on my computer and hindering the operation of the os is wasted ram! I can open up the same session on chrome and use less than a gig. And dont give me the lame ass check the firefox task manager solution either, because firefox's task manager gives you no information, it just says that a single tab is using a ridiculous amount of memory with no details. all my extensions together use less than a gigabyte, HOW HAS THIS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR SO LONG, AND WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT? There are countless forum posts asking for help with this very issue here and all over the internet.

How do I stop YAHOO from overriding Google when I do a search.? I choose Google as my search preference and remove "browse" but YAHOO keeps popping up at times.

Unable to "Manage bookmarks". If I drag and drop a bookmark into a folder in "Library", and then delete it from where they are saved in Book Marks Current Tab, they are also deleted in the folder. they used to go into "Bookmarks Menu" where I could then re order them into my folders under "Other Bookmarks". Any attempt now to sort them and they get deleted from the folder as well as from "Recent Bookmarks". Will I have to find another way to save bookmarks? Desktop? I have iMac with Ventura 13.7.7. Also, provide answer as to how I can access your answer. [edited email from public support forum]

I've had increasing issues with Firefox performance over the past month or so. I kept hoping an update might fix things but it's getting to the point I need to use Chrome much of the time now. I read the help article for websites not opening with Firefox but opening with another browser and had already done most of the things: clearing data and cache. I don't know what proxy is but I looked at my Chrome settings and changed Firefox to match (automatically detect settings). Nothing has helped. Sometimes a site won't open and sometimes I get into a website and then a random page within the website won't open. I have only a few pages open at a time. It might have started at some point after adding Facebook container to the extensions. Other extensions are: Duck Duck Go, Malwarebytes, Google Analytics opt-out, Read Aloud and U-Block Origin. Any help appreciated. LC

In my Windows 10 PC, I had 1 browser window, with all financial accounts bookmarked on the Fire Bookmarks Toolbar. This window had the extra security tab on the side that I believe added an extra layer of security around activities on those sites.

Windows (11) forced me to purchase a new computer...

Now I'm not sure how to set that up in this latest Firefox and Windows 11. If I select that secure level described here that warns it could cause breaks in activities on some sites, is that the same protection? Will it serve that purpose and can I again only have that level of protection on that one browser window, saving it apart from the main Firefox icon?

Please know any answer will need some plain English - I'm not up to date on computer terminology after 18 years away from my days of understanding. (Windows 3.11 - 7 experience)

Thank you for reading this. Hope someone can point me in the right direction!
