Firefox Community Forum

When I search for something, the location bar no longer shows the address and the star to add bookmarks unless I click on a little globe. I installed a Firefox update not long ago but this has only just happened. I'd like to be able to just bookmark searches like I used to.

I have a folder with many bookmarks in it, and when I want to open multiple links in the folder but not ALL of them, I have to keep opening the bookmarks folder after middle clicking each link 1 at a time. I can't open the entire folder - there are 100+ and say I want to open 10.

Is there a way to keep the bookmark folder open while I open each link in new tabs?

Thanks!

Hi, Google, is my search engine of choice on Mozilla Firefox, and the Os on my computer is Windows 10. Google search is no longer active from any scroll down or top tab bar. Have a nice day.

I run FF on a Windows desktop. I have 5 pinned tabs and one tab group. Today when I opened FF all of these had disappeared. This has happened before, so I have a screenshot of the 5 tabs and can restore those, but I didn't make one of the tab group (given that the whole point of it was to SAVE the tabs), and unfortunately those were the result of a lot of time spent researching.

Is there something I can to do make sure these tabs all actually get saved from one session to the next? This unreliability of FF wastes a lot of time and starts me thinking about going back to Chrome which at least has the virtue of more stability. What is the point of all these features (I was really happy when you created the tab groups) if I can't rely on them?

Hello . 2 maybe 3 days ago when i went to use Firefox to check my email etc there was an update available.

I did the usual thing and accepted the update , that id seam to go as normal

However since that update all of my short cuts to my save/favourite site as now disappeared completely , now even any blank icons ??

Your advice please.

Hello, I have a question and don't know how to fix it. Is there any ways to have similiar shortcuts in home page in my all devices, because by syncing it doesn't help. Unfortunately I don't want to add all shortcuts manually.

Recently, after the newest Windows 11 update, Twitch hasn't been loading correctly, the tab looks as if it finished loading, but the page gets stuck in endless loading, no other site has this problem, and it happens even opening links to Twitch channels directly. I've added and screenshot of the problem.

I'd love some help or at least know if this is a problem on Twitches end or not. Thanks.

What the title says. Firefox just isn't playing any sound whatsoever.

Troubleshooting:

• Volume mixer indicates that Firefox is using my speakers, along with all other apps. When playing a YouTube video, the green bar is not bouncing. However, all other programs that play sound do so successfully and their green bars are bouncing (see attachment).

• Other web browsers play sound successfully.

• Restarting Firefox and my computer did not help.

• Switching the default sound device and changing back did not help.

• Changing to headphones made no change.

• Tabs are not muted.

• Autoplay settings in about:preferences showed that audio and video were disabled, however changing this setting to allow video and audio, then restarting both Firefox and the computer did not fix the problem. I have no idea how that setting was even changed to begin with. O_o

• Started Firefox in troubleshooting mode; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in a different profile; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in private mode; still no sound.

• Tried ending the audiodg.exe process in task manager and restarted; still no sound.

• Double checked media.autoplay.blocking_policy, was set to 0.

• Double checked media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground -- changed from true to false, restarted Firefox; still no sound.

• Disabled hardware acceleration; still no sound.

• Refreshed Firefox; still no sound.

• Complete uninstall, including the usage of BCUninstaller to uninstall "leftovers". Reinstalled. Still no sound.

I have Apollo installed on my computer and I've reached out to them before for similar issues, but the dev was insistent that Apollo does not cause sound issues. I'm somewhat sceptical, but they're not being helpful at all so I thought I'd ask here, and disclose usage of Apollo so that all bases are covered.

Thank you for your time.

Using desktop PC with Roku device and Firefox as default browser, V140 / Win10. I don't know if there was a recent update, but I can no longer access tv.apple.com through Roku. I am able to enter my username and password when signing in to tv.apple.com on desktop, but no 2SV window appears and an empty sign-in form appears again, as if my sign-in info is not recognized. Signing in on a laptop with Firefox browser is successful. Signing in on desktop PC through Firefox "Private Window" is successful as well. What settings on desktop PC changed, and how can I fix this?

Thanks.

Hello and sure hope someone can help me. Fire Fox is my browser that I have had for a year or so. Pls understand that I am 80+ and am not as sharp as I once was. I am using a desk top that I have had for years. Several days ago I was on the web looking around. I don't remember where I was on the net but I am thinking it was Face Book. Anyway, up came this offer saying I could create a new profile and a new name on Face Book if I wanted to. I have always wanted to do that so I started filling out the paper work. I made up a profile name and a user name and was moving on to the next part when it came to me that this might be a scam, so I canceled what I was doing, or tried to. Boxes kept coming up telling me that I needed to finish filling out the form, but I X'd out of that too, several times. Then the box said "you need to finish filling this out or you will never hear from us again. Then I shut the desk top down until the next morning. In the am, I went on Fire Fox and went to the Face Book site. For awhile all I got was pretty much a blank page with no way to do anything. A day later the sight came up kinda but things were a bit different. There were some things like my profile picture at the top rightwas gone and then Boxes were coming up telling me to complete the paper work I had started. By this time I knew that someone was trying to scam me. I tried to find several sites that were generally on my home page of Facebook when I signed in, but they were gone now along with other things. I went on two another browser and got on Facebook and found things to be very normal, so what ever happened only effects the Fire Fox browser. I would sure like to fix this so I could use Fire Fox to connect with Facebook. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

При попытке войти в аккаунт twitch появляется ошибка о том что браузер не поддерживается. Я попробовал множество вариантов(какие то были описаны на сайте twitch, какие то предложены технической поддержкой twitch). Вот некоторые из них: 1) Убедитесь, что используйте последнюю версию браузера. 2) Отключите все расширения. Особенно это касается расширений для разработчиков или схожих типов расширений. 3) Очистите кэш и файлы cookie. 4) Перезапустите свой браузер и повторите попытку. 5) также я пробовал запустить с включеным vpn и без него Ниже представлены предложения от тех. поддержки twitch:

  1) As a first step, make sure you're using a supported, up to date browser. The Twitch.tv site is currently developed for the latest versions of the most popular browsers, you can find a specific list here: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/supported-browsers
  2) Replicate this issue in an incognito window/private browsing mode while your browser extensions are disabled. 
  3) Log out of VPNs or similar software which might reroute requests through an IP address other than your own (how to do this will depend on whatever software you're using).
   4) Avast Antivirus, AVG Anti-Track, and similar software may also affect your connection - make sure to add Twitch as a trusted website or disable it temporarily to see if that resolves it.
   5) Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies (you’ll need to log into your account again). You can find instructions on how to do this depending on your browser here: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/supported-browsers
   И ниже мой ответ:

1) I use a supported browser (Firefox latest version) 2) I tried to log in incognito mode and nothing worked either (no extensions installed) 3) I tried to log in to my account with and without VPN 4) I don't have any antiviruses 5) I tried to clear browser data and that didn't help either (running in incognito mode does the same thing)

Hi,

I am in the process of migrating away from Chrome, and I am considering Firefox as my new daily browser. In Chrome, I was able to get surround sound playback through my major streaming services (e.g., YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, Spotify, etc.). As I recall, there wasn't anything specific I needed to do in Chrome to enable this. As long as I was listening through my 7.1 surround sound headset, it seemed to work. In Firefox, it seems that audio from all the listed streaming services plays in stereo mode. Is there a way I can get surround sound to work on this browser? I couldn't find any audio related settings or documentation about this issue.

Thank you.

I have 2 separate firefox profiles that are open at the same time. I made a shortcut to open the second profile as a new window but it still shows up in the original firefox taskbar. How can i make it so the second firefox profile can be clicked to minimize and maximize the window in the taskbar? in the picture im hovering over the original firefox icon and whenever i press the shortcut icon it make a new window with profile 2.

firefox need to detect and know how much monitors and screens like 1,2,3,4 to know to open new window always in monitor 1, screen 1. in now is open always is where is placed first open firefox program window. that is happened when i start firefox in screen 1 and move it to second monitor screen 2 all others start opened program windows open in screen 2 monitor 2. this is not good. if i will come time to hav 4 monitors and 4 screens what we do ?!?!? chasing where is open firefox program in all monitors.

second. all firefox opened program windows and loaded links in them need to remember where is closed to remember where is need to open in next time like monitor number and screen number. also what is size of program window is in moment of closing of program window.

talk about it and see what you will do about this futures in new updates.

Hello! I cannot edit our Weebly-hosted website. Firefox will not load the editor, apparently because of embedding issues.

I've tried a new tab, a new window, the private browser, and another browser, all with the same outcome, which leads me to believe that Firefox and Weebly need to have a discussion to fix this. I've also Weebly to the tracking exceptions, even though I don't think that's the issue here.

If, however, there is something I can do, please let me know.

Thank you for any help - I need to edit our website!
