Firefox Support Forum

How do I add the icon for an add-on which is not shown when I click on "customize toolbar"? When I click customize toolbar the result does not show any of the icons for add-ons/extensions.

I want to be able to control when firefox updates are done. many times, i try to sign on for a quick task. The firefox updates immediately kick-in and cannot be stopped. this prevents me from accomplishing my intended task in a timely manner. I want to do the updates on MY schedule, not Firefox's.

I am starting to hate your updates.

Every time settings are removed, things are changed, using becomes more complicated and there is no guidance. Once it wiped out all of my saved bookmarks. Every. Single. One. Hundreds of hours of research gone.

After this last one, my new tab page settings disappeared along with all of the shortcuts. My bookmarks in the header also disappeared. Where did they go? Unknown. How to change this? Unknown? That option no longer appears in the settings menu. Or if it does, it was renamed/relocated. I looked everywhere it should logically appear.

My bookmark shortcut disappeared - it is no longer an option to add a site from the browser header. Where did it go? Unknown. How to change this? Unknown. That option no longer appears in the Settings menu. Or if it does, it was renamed/relocated.

Why make using your browser more complicated? I get tired of having to rebuild my browser settings every time you folks update. When an update includes drastic changes, we should be warned and instructions for accessing the old settings included.

For almost year Firefox screenshot feature missing from everywhere including customize toolbar section. So if it's not in customize tool bar section, which means I cannot drag it either to menu area.

There is no topic on the internet about this issue at all. Where did it go? and how to bring back up. Firefox version is : 107.0.1

Is there a way for the new window animation in Firefox for Mac to be disabled?

Safari does not do this, but firefox has a... ~100ms animation for new windows that's extremely frustrating for those of us who do not use tabs (Apple's Exposé/Mission Control obsoletes them).

I haven't found a configuration in about:config, although I've been able to disable a few others.

I use the 102.6.0esr (64-bit) Firefox browser.

For some reason, the ongoing downloads window has begun to open certain video and audio files when the download is complete. Clicking on some downloads in progress and with the same data type (say, mp4) brings up "Open when completed." Others of the same type do not open but save the file. I would like to turn the open when completed option off for all video and audio files.

I've followed the directions in the setting command for mp4 and other video formats--which indicate that the file should be saved. You can see this:

Hello How to remove extension symbol from toolbar? ^(see image): https://i.imgur.com/2bh8se5.png Any idea? Thanks

below steps suggested to solve , but couldn't find how to add mentioned plugin Firefox Open the Firefox browser or restart it, if it is already running. From the Firefox menu, select Tools then click the Add-ons option. In the Add-ons Manager window, select Plugins. Click Java (TM) Platform plugin (Windows) or Java Applet Plug-in (Mac OS X) to select it.

A few of my extensions are not showing up in my toolbar at the left top of the window -- specifically, my Evernote extension. It is turned ON in my "Settings" area, but not showing up in the toolbar.

This is a Mac Studio, 2022.

I also have two other Macbook Pros. The extensions show up on my Firefox browsers there.

Thank you Polly

I used to be able to install an extension, and than see it automatically pin itself on my toolbar now I have to select the add ons and theme icon on toolbar and manually pin each extension I install one by one. I do not want to have to keep doing this. Will someone please tell me what is going on and how to revert this back to how it originally was?

Hi, I really appreciate the work on PDF.js and I hope to eventually not use any proprietary software (looking at the bloated Adobe Reader...) for pdf files anymore.

The thing I am missing most right now: the option to highlight text.

There is a workaround by selecting the draw tool with 50% opacity/thickness and using a light color, but it's not the same as just highlighting text like in other pdf viewers.

Best, przvl

Firefox 112.0 running on Windows 10 64-bit laptop with a small (pixel geometry) display screen has unnecessarily large padding (white space) around each bookmark as I navigate bookmarks on the bookmark bar.

I believe this was a change instituted around version 89 (in a nutshell, I could see more - twice as many? - bookmarks listed within a bookmark folder with version 88/before. The vertical whitespace between bookmarks within a folder is excessive and makes it much more necessary to scroll within a (long) list of bookmarks in a folder when looking for one.

There was a procedure posted in the discussion below on how to set and enable "compact density".

Bookmark Padding in New Firefox Versions 2 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1369996

The procedure below was attempted - browser.compactmode.show enabled, browser restarted, however, I cannot fin "Customize Toolbar" and "compact".

"go to - about:config search - "browser.compactmode.show" - change to TRUE , then close that window go to - Customize Toolbar at the bottom of that page, there a box called Density. Click that, you'll see "compact (not supported)" Apparently, it IS supported because I chose that. (it looked like it ignored my choice) After I closed Customize Toolbar, the bookmarks were compact spaced again. Exactly how I need them."

Is this fixable/solvable?

The Responsive Design Mode saves screenshot files to the Pictures folder on Mac instead of the default download location, which I have set to Downloads. According to the source docs https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/responsive_design_mode/#responsive-design-mode-camera-button, the expected result is that the screenshot is placed in the default download location. This is independent of the selected device being emulated.
