Firefox Community Forum

I have recently switched computers, and since it has been a while, I can't remember the setting on the 'about:config' page that I need to change to where when I open a new browser tab, it opens at the end of my list of tabs, rather than as the next tab. Thanks!

Hi community The option to set, how many rows of shortcuts should be visible on the Firefox start screen, is a good idea. E.g. I set 3 rows and fill them with relevant shortcuts. The shortcuts in the bottom row always changes when I visit several websites. My understanding is: Setting the shortcuts as necessary and that's it! Wtf happens, that the last row changes all the time, that makes me fussy. regards wolf

I use a Lenovo Legion 5 laptop pc and a second Samsung monitor. When the screens go to sleep with Firefox open on the second monitor, the second screen will not wake up again instantly. It can take up to 5 minutes or only after rebooting.

When I close the Firefox window on the second screen from the taskbar on the laptop, the second screen lights up again.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

For the last two to three weeks The Firefox updates have changed the way bookmark data is retained. Firefox will allow bookmarks to be added and retained on the tool bar for any sessions - until firefox is restarted and then the bookmarks no longer work.

If I go to the profile folder, exit firefox then copy and paste the folder to a backup location. The attempted backup fails. Something about permissions as I recall. I have tried many things unsuccessfully. Something has changed that does not allow for the backup of profile folders. Adding a backup option to the profile manager would be nice. I noticed some people have found work-arounds but I need a straight-forward procedure for backing up my folders. No work-arounds please, just a simple procedure. May I ask for help with this issue?

In the standart view of a video, the feature works, but not in fullscreen. In Chrome it also works in fullscreen. Firefox should have support for it since v126 or so, im on v145

After a re-start, my Firefox browser on a Dell laptop lost all history and has since also not been collecting websites visited. When opening a new tab, the shortcuts and recently visited websites are also gone and no longer being collected. My CCleaner recently updated itself to a new version but I unchecked the delete history for Firefox (which treacherously is clicked by default - I fell into that trap before). Happy to blame the new CCleaner but that would not explain why history is not being collected now - to me the fault seems to lie with Firefox instead. Another possibility that went through my mind: Is Microsoft sabotaging users of Windows 11 to force them to buy new? PS: Under "Privacy", "History", the setting is "Firefox will remember history", as it always has been and should be. But it has forgotten all previous history and it is no longer collecting any new history either!

For MONTHS now I have been UNABLE TO LOG INTO MY DAM BANK! Every time I try to log in I get BOOTED TO THE "SECURE SIGN UP" PAGE & i AM SICK TO DEATH OF SEEING THAT DAM PAGE! I've gone through my settings, I can find anything that would prevent me from logging in, Another problem is that I'm going BLIND I have a lot of trouble seeing the page or reading what's on it. Trying to fill in a check, an envelope or anything else that reqires me to write is almost impossible now. WHere can I find the responce to my qestions, I have been unable to find where it's HIDING.

my interenet provider server is in a differnt state to where i live and my mozilla firefox detects my location to where my server is located and NOT where I am physically located

how can i force the active tab to show? i am fairly sure this feature was in a previous edition. I have a large number of tabs and sometimes an app or video will start and i am forced to go back and forth thru all the tabs just so i can stop them.

Hi,

I'm using Containers to switch between four different workloads, three companies and personal things.

However, if I have a tab opened with a host that is common to two or more containers, i.e. Google Drive, Firefox will continuously duplicate the tab and ask if I'd like to "Open this site in your assigned Container?"

The tab in the attached image is already opened with the document, but despite that Firefox will duplicate the tab, asking the above question. If I pass some time without visiting the group where the tab is, I have to sometimes close tenths of such tabs.

Any help is appreciated, Containers are amazing but it's really bothersome to have to keep closing tabs all the time.

When I right-click on a website and choose "send page to device", I get the notification "Sent!", but nothing actually happens on my other device. Yes, I am logged in with the same sync account on both devices.

When I access a specific website the .css files hosted at http://cdn.ct-static.com/ don't load. The Network Tool console indicates that they time out. I have been told this is usually a network setup issue however if I use the MS edge browser the site loads. How do I troubleshoot this?

Firefox just updated today and wiped all of my bookmarks and passwords. I need them to be restored as it included my login information for vital personal services such as my online banking, health information, etc. I hadn't saved this information anywhere else.

The passwords seem to have been stored in a login.json file, however, copying that file into my Firefox profile folder doesn't restore them.

Any help would be desperately appreciated.
