Firefox Community Forum

Is it possible to reverse the direction of side scrolling? Right now scrolling down while holding shift scrolls to the right and up to the left, can this be changed anywhere? Thanks!

(also sorry if i set the wrong topic, i didn't know which one to pick)

I'm using the latest stable version of Firefox (143.0.1 (aarch64)) on MacOS Tahoe and have been experiencing issues with these pop up elements not rendering correctly. Things like Facebook's Notifications dropdown or editing spreadsheets in Google Sheets, etc.

The element will only partially render, with some of the content clipped or hidden, almost like a z-index handling issue. Refreshing the page does. not fix the issue. The only way to see the content is to re-size the full browser window, forcing the browser to re-paint the page.

Same issue does not happen using Safari or Chrome that I've noticed.

I've tried reducing protections, disabling all extensions, clearing history & cache, etc.. I also fully re-installed Firefox (going from the Beta channel back to stable releases).

Anyone else experiencing this?

When I upload photos to facebook.com regularly Firefox freezes. The radio channel I am listening to will keep on going and the task manager does not indicate Firefox is frozen. It will not respond to any mouse clicks though. I removed Firefox and reinstalled but that did not fix anything. thanks!

Hi. According to my observations, only Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Reader have this problem so far.

Windows 11 + Multi-Monitoring Windows 10 have this Bug not !

Open Firefox, drag the window to the second or third monitor, and suddenly there is another hidden Firefox window on the taskbar of that display. If you move Firefox back to the main monitor, it disappears again. Or you can close Firefox and restart it on the desired monitor.

This is an annoying little bug, and I don't understand why Microsoft or Mozilla haven't fixed it yet. It's easy to reproduce and has obviously been around for a while. Since it only affects the two programs mentioned above so far, an MS update will probably not fix it; instead, the developers at Mozilla and Adobe need to address it.

Here the Same Topic in Adobe Forum. No bug fix to date

I hope you release a bug fix soon... but since that hasn't happened yet, I'm afraid it will take a while... I'm surprised, because I'm sure many people are experiencing this annoying problem, and in my opinion it's not a big challenge for your developers.

@Mozilla Please Fix this Bug. I know Windows 11 is not better than Windows 10 but Supports End and many Users and Customers used in Future this OS and if you don't want to lose any more market share, it's important to fix this minor bug for ordinary users too. Thanks ;-)

Hi guys,

I'm on my personal computer and personal account and my "network administrator" (which I don't have) has turned on restricted mode in YouTube so I can't read comments on videos etc. I know I need to change my browser security settings, but I don't know to what exactly. Can anyone help? The restricted mode is infuriating me.

I updated my firefox browser on October 6th and ever since then, whenever I press ALT to switch to a different application (I use ALT + Tab to switch windows) I go back in a tab's history. This never happened before and I'm not sure how to go about disabling whatever function this is. I've checked in the about:config section of firefox but I don't know which of these options is for this function, if it's even in here. Any advice or help would be appreciated!

The "Browser Websocket Client" addon ( https://github.com/abeade/browser-websocket-client ) was automatically disabled. The addons manager says:

> This extension is restricted for violating Mozilla’s policies and has been disabled. You can enable it, but this may be risky.

However, I cannot find any information about which policies the addon violated or when. If it was logging or modifying data, I want to know to what extent I may be compromised from using the extension. If it was for lack of maintenance, I want to know so I can make an informed decision about whether to keep using it, because the addon was still useful to me and my work as of recently.

when i'm browsing youtube shorts on my windows based laptop, it will not stop scrolling. N0 problems on regular browsing or scrolling, only on SHORTS.

Firefox Version 142.0.1 (64-bit)

Laptop: HP ENVY 17.3" 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1195G7 @ 2.90GHz (1.80 GHz) RAM: 32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable) Sys: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Windows 11 Home Ver.24H2

When I use Google Chrome, youtube shorts functions properly.

When doing a search I receive a message " Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to af.xdock.co. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.

Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG"

How do I fix this issue?

Hi everyone, I’m using multiple Firefox profiles to separate my work environments (e.g., “Work”, “University”, “Personal”), all linked to the same Firefox account.

What I would like to do is:

Use the same Firefox account across multiple profiles to keep extensions, passwords, etc., synchronized.

Sync bookmarks only within the same profile, so that bookmarks from the “Work” profile do not appear in the “University” profile and vice versa.

Continue to be able to edit bookmarks from different devices (home or office) while keeping them synced only within the same profile.

I’ve looked into Firefox settings and sync options, but it seems Firefox syncs everything across all profiles connected to the same account.

My questions:

Is there a native way or any setting to have bookmarks synced separately per profile while using the same account?

If this is not possible at the moment, could this be considered as a potential feature for the future?

Thanks for any suggestions or guidance!

Hi,

I have 3 devices with the same Firefox account : a phone, a work pc and a personal pc. I don't have bookmarks sync on any of my devices. From my phone I can access (read only) my bookmarks from both my pc. It seems I can't do the same from a pc to another. Am I missing something or is the feature not implemented?

Thanks

I am having a problem with a 502 Bad Gateway error which will not go away. There was originally a real problem, but it has been cleared up. I am trying to access an e-book on Libby from my local library site when the error occurs. The link works without any problem in Microsoft Edge. It used to work in Firefox as well, until the temporary problem occurred. I have clear my Firefox cache, but this has not resolved the problem. Somewhere Firefox has stored something which is creating this spurious error, but I have been unable to find it. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Hi, I would like to know how I can increase the number of Google search results shown per page to 100 in Firefox. Is there any setting or extension that can help with this?"
