Firefox Support Forum

When joining a Zoom meeting hosted on the browser rather than installed Zoom app, my speakers are not working and the troubleshooting error messages says the browser is blocking zoom from accessing the speakers. I can't find a setting in Firefox preferences to block/allow it. Speakers work on YouTube/Vimeo with no problems (speaker volume 100% and not muted). Speakers had been working with Zoom until a couple weeks ago. I don't want to install the Zoom app just because Google hates privacy and and I don't want to help them own my privacy anymore than I must. I use DuckDuckGo for the default search engine, have Ghostery for an Extension/add-on, and have the Firefox browser set for private window always. I have tried various cookie settings for the Zoom meetings and even the dreaded "accept all cookies" and have Firefox cookie handling set to Standard, with deleting all cookies and history upon exit. I am on 64-bit Windows 10 up to date as of 2/16/22, Dell computer updated to same date, and latest update of Firefox 2/18/22. I have done a number of web searches and not finding the speaker topic or error message other than three unanswered help requests from others with the same problem dated from July-Sept 2021.

I use to be able to change firefox icons by adding these files in Firefox under the browser directory

chrome/icons/default/BrowserPreferences.ico chrome/icons/default/CustomizeToolbarWindow.ico chrome/icons/default/default.ico chrome/icons/default/downloadManager.ico chrome/icons/default/main-window.ico chrome/icons/default/openLocation.ico chrome/icons/default/places.ico chrome/icons/default/printPageSetupDialog.ico chrome/icons/default/TabMIxPreferences.ico chrome/icons/default/unknownContentType.ico chrome/icons/default/viewSource.ico chrome/icons/default/Wizard.ico

It worked in version 56 but now in version 97 and this no longer works?

My main screen and drop-down are stuck in a black background. I have changed the setting but they only work once I leave the home screen that shows in a new tab. How do I get it back to a white background?

Bookmarks are saving but never show up in my bookmarks bar folders?

• I have tried to uninstall and reinstall but still same problem. And yes I did a hard delete of all installation files in users - app data..
• I have checked the read only is not selected in the "places.sqlite", and even deleted it to force a new one, still didn't help.
• I have also deleted the "xulstore.json" file and that also did not help.
• I have reset in safe mode to default setting but that also didn't help.

Does anyone please know how to fix this very annoying problem?

Please I really don't want to go back to Chrome but if that's the only reliable browser without so many downsides (apart from privacy) then I don't see any other option if I can't fix this asap.

thank you.

I was in my bookmarks in a folder named "Bonus" about to select a website and the folder just disappeared, while I was in it. I went to a synced browser on a different computer to recover the folder. It was there and I was about to copy it when IT disappeared. That folder has all of my working tools in it. How can I recover a folder not stored on my harddrive but was stored in my browser?

Hi everyone, I have created an extension that can be used from the usual position at the top right through which you can do some things, including open a website locally. To be clearer ...

Extension Folder: - extension.js - manifest.json - LocalWebSite (folder)

Inside the LocalWebSite folder: - index.html

Then clicking the button via the extension will load the local website. At this point, when the local website is opened it becomes impossible to trigger any button, modal, or whatever, it's a totally static page.

One important thing is that I don't want to replace the popup with the static page, I wish I could have both.

Extension Code: // SiteWebLocale function openWebSite () {

   browser.tabs.create ({
       "url": "./LocalWebSite/index.html"
   });

} document.getElementById ("openWebSite"). addEventListener ("click", openWebSite);

Local Website Button Code (It doesn't work): <button type = "button" class = "btn btn-danger" onclick = "alert ('ok')"> Action </button>

I just installed Firefox version 97.0. After the install, my print preview disappeared! Solutions I found on your web site DO NOT fix the problem. I change the configuration entry print.tab_modal.enabled from TRUE to FALSE as recommended.

Also, there is no entry app.normandy.startupRolloutPrefs.print.tab_modal.enabled in my config.

Please help!

I have two PDFs that I designed and uploaded to our website, but the headline in both displays with clipped characters in Firefox. Different fonts were used in both and the issue is the same. I even tried adding more tracking then re-uploading, the issue persists.

I checked in other browsers and the text displays as intended. The attached screenshots show the issue in Firefox, compared to how it should look (viewed in Chrome).

It's only this one line of text that is affected and I don't know why.

I'm not sure this is a problem with Firefox but I have run out of other options to look at. At first I thought it might be because the page uses a frameset (I know it's obsolete) so I created a version that uses an iframe instead. That way the html that needs to be acted on is not in a frame. It still doesn't work. I don't know why it works in stackoverflow's sandbox and jsfiddle but not on my website. Any help is appreciated.

Frameset version iFrame version

If you need to see the tabstrip code (it's virtually identical to the iFrame version): Tabstrip for frameset version

The script is supposed to hilite the selected tab with a red background. The rollover works fine (yellow background and brown text) but the selected tab color never shows up.

I have Firefox version 97.0.2 (64 bit) for Windows. Lately, every time I start up the browser, it's trying to install an update. I haven't had this problem before with Firefox (and I've been using it for several years now). Is there something I need to do to stop this?

Hey, While I was surfing today I've been taken to a survey titled "Firefox browser survey 2022" and there I was asked some questions then it took me to a window where there was a prize and I was directed to scan the QR code. This survey was taken place on the following link: www.funkyoffer.net I'm here to ask whether this survey was carried out by FireFox or this is a spam/scam?

Hello, I accidentally removed my "save bookmark" star (that turns blue when a page is saved) in the address bar. I know there are other ways to save a bookmark but I want it restored as it was. What should I do for that? Thank you.
