Currently using stock version of firefox which came with debian 12. I have tried every solution that I could find but none of them work. The touchscreen behaves like a pen instead of a touchscreen.

I am using Firefox 115.3 on Debian 12.1. I have numerous tasks which require the use of my web browser and have allocated a different virtual desktop for each. This means that my browser session typically has several dozen tabs open in numerous windows at one time. Under normal circumstances, this works just fine (and is a testament to the engineering that has gone into this browser).

My issue is that Firefox renders my machine virtually unusable for a few minutes each time I restart my desktop session due to focus stealing. When I open the browser, several dozen windows pop up (as expected) and relocate to their correct virtual desktops (as expected); however, as the windows begin to load, the most recently active Firefox window steals focus repeatedly. If I am, for instance, in the process of typing my password into my desktop e-mail client, a Firefox window may steal focus from the password dialog. In practice, this focus steal happens once every few seconds for several minutes.

I would prefer that Firefox would not steal focus while restoring a session. Does anyone have any suggestions for correcting this issue?

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to seek assistance regarding a persistent issue I am facing with Firefox on my Kali Linux operating system. Despite my best efforts, I have been unable to resolve the problem, and I kindly request your support in rectifying it.

The issue I am encountering involves frequent tab crashes while using Firefox on Kali Linux. I have attempted various troubleshooting methods, including updating Firefox to the latest version, disabling extensions, clearing cache and cookies, and even reinstalling the browser entirely. Unfortunately, none of these measures have been successful in resolving the problem.

Considering the importance of Firefox in my daily activities and the need for a stable browsing experience, I am reaching out to request the assistance of a dedicated support team. It would greatly help if someone from your team could guide me through the troubleshooting process or provide specific instructions tailored to my situation. I am available at [email removed from public forum] for any further communication or clarifications you may require. Additionally, please let me know if there are any specific logs or error reports I should share to assist with the troubleshooting process.

I understand the challenges involved in troubleshooting unique system configurations, and I genuinely appreciate the effort your team invests in assisting users like myself. I have always valued Firefox as a reliable and secure browser, and I trust that your support will help resolve this issue and allow me to continue using it effectively on Kali Linux.

Thank you very much for your attention to this matter. I eagerly await your response and look forward to working together to resolve this issue.

Best regards, Harie.R

I don't know what happened, but after the latest version of Firefox Developer Edition, all websites appear to be broken, with most complaining about NS errors in the console, none of my extensions have data anymore, and even trying to log in to Mozilla, it complains that Local Storage and Cookies are disabled.

No matter what I do with any of my settings, I can't seem to fix it. Even tried creating a new profile on `about:profiles`, and starting with Addons disabled.

Currently running 115.0b3 (64-bit), but having to post this using Brave (unfortunately). Running Linux 6.3.6.

Hello, I tried following methods online to disable private browsing however they don't seem to work (possibly due to being outdated?) and I was wondering if there is a way of disable private browsing in Ubuntu 22.04? I have added pictures to show what I implemented and it still allows private browsing.

Hello,

I created a loading progress bar for Firefox which uses JavaScript to show how much of the current page is loaded at the bottom of the address bar.

Is there any way I can automate running JavaScript at the opening of a window? Like how we can change the appearance in userChrome.css?

Currently I'm copy pasting the script to console at the start of every window.

I get message when trying to connect to the WEB via Firefox. "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox, you must first close the existing Firefox process, restart your device, or use a different profile".

Frustrating experience trying to use Twilio Authy. Whenever I first installed it on my iPhone I was using Password1 and that is the only record it shows, with no obvious way to delete that entry now that I have dumped Password1 in favor of Bitwarden. Plus when trying to install on Linux Mint desktop it first wanted me to use Snap package but Mint uses Flatpak. Got it installed using default software manager in Mint, then when I wanted to authenticate it sent code to phone, but phone said already registered so no way to authenticate desktop version. Forget it ... I use my Yubikey for all my other 2FA and it works slicker-n-snot this Twilio thing is too much hassle comparatively. When Mozilla adds some other 2FA choices THEN I can use 2FA with FF, not this app. Ugh.

I am having trouble to open firefox browser for ubuntu 20.04(focal). I have also delete mozilla folder from cache and then reinstalled again. I have tried to rename profileini file. Finally I have uninstall and install using terminal by "sudo apt install firefox" but still I am getting this error "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible".

How to resolve this.

Thanks in advance.

Before the latest update, I was able to open links (eg zoommtg:) but that quit working. I originally thought it was a problem with Ubuntu, but I tried in Chromium and it seemed to work fine. In addition to not being able to open links, I can't click on the "Show Folder" in the downloads dialog. This leads me to believe Firefox is having trouble communicating with the desktop.

• OS Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
• Firefox Version 114.0.1 (Snap)

Ideally, I'd like to find a log or some indicator as to why this is happening. It's quite annoying because I find myself doing a lot of copying and pasting of links and what not. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Folks, I recently downloaded and installed firefox-114.0.1 to replace the aging CentOS 7 package. Install went fine, browser seems to be working great. But now, every few minutes, I get a dialog box popping up titled "Unlock keyring" asking me to "Enter password to unlock"

Completely obnoxious - you can't ignore it. It steals focus from whatever you were doing. You can click somewhere else end get the mouse focus back, but the keyboard focus is stuck to the dialog until you close it.

I know that KDE has some sort of keyring feature, but I've never used it and I've tried to disable it in settings.

I think it must somehow be related to the firefox install, because I never had it happen until this install yesterday.

Suggestions? I'm about ready to revert to the prehistoric v78 Thanks

I've got a pretty simple question here.

I do work thru a website doing data entry. One of the forms has a "copy this data to all similar fields" button. When I used to use Chrome, I could click the button and it would work with no pop-up dialogue. In Firefox, it creates the dialogue below (mozillahow2.png) asking me to confirm that I want to copy the data. It has an option to prevent the page from creating additional diologues.

I tried ticking the box but, unfortunately, this prevents the copy-to-all function in the website from working at all; it blocks the dialogue completely rather than defaulting to "yes, confirm" etc.

I'm just wondering how I can tinker around and make this work like it does in Chrome. It's a minor inconvenience but one I would like to optimize.

Thanks! -LDStrait//Chilperic Fanethegn
