On my mac I have the f14 key mapped to start a screen saver, but whenever I'm using firefox it appears to take control of the f14 key and prevents the use of my screen saver shortcut. Whenever I select another program that isn't firefox, my shortcut immediately works again, so I know firefox is the problem. Is there anyway to prevent firefox from using the f14 key?

I tried changing my IP address with a free IP address in Network Settings but that didn't work (because I searched my address online and it didn't change) so I added Firefox "Hide my IP" extension and that didn't work, either. I went to a few websites and I got popups telling me I needed to hide my IP address. How can I change my IP address without paying for a VPN?

Hi,

This appears to be an ongoing issue with several community support pages now archived, but the problem still persists. This is after applying cor-el's workaround in https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1413716.

OS: MacOS 14.2.1 FF: 122.0

As suggested in the related instructions, I tried with both ^ (just the first datestamp shown consistenly) & * (datestamp appears shortly in first post, then disappears very quickly <1sec), with results shown respectiively.

Is this a Mozilla issue or FB trying to be funny...? If the former can we have a bug ref that can be followed. All I see from the community posts are questions being archived once the cor-el workaround has been added. This isnt a lot of use for those still effected...

I have a Ledger Nano S crypto wallet. Not all cryptos show directly in my Ledger and I wish to use MetaMask to view them. When using Chrome, with my Ledger connected and active, my Ledger doesn't connect due to "unknown error". When using Firefox, with my Ledger connected and active, my Ledger similarly doesn't connect due to "unknown error" although in this case there was an additional screen note from Firefox regarding "ongoing problems connecting Ledger devices to MetaMask (origin April 23?)". When using Brave browser there is not a problem viewing my tokens (although a different problem is that I lose token upgrade functionality - hence my desire to connect Ledger to MetaMask using a different browser - preferably Firefox). I use the latest versions of the browsers and Windows 10 in conjunction with Avast One anti-virus. I’ve also cleared cookies and cache several times. All drivers and software are up to date. Any thoughts on rectifying my connection problem please?

Subject: Urgent: Request for Account Restoration

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Ray Bann, and I recently experienced an issue with my Firefox Nightly browser after a system restore on my personal computer earlier today.

Following the system restore, my Firefox Nightly browser was successfully restored; however, to my dismay, all of my meticulously organized bookmarks and passwords from my Firefox account disappeared. Despite numerous attempts, I was unable to retrieve them using the Sync feature, even after multiple logins.

I kindly request your assistance in restoring my Firefox account to a previous state, preferably within the last 2-3 days, to ensure the recovery of my bookmarks. The information related to my account is as follows:

   Display Name: Ray Bann
   Primary Email: rayalessandrobann@gmail.com
   Secondary Email: ravasz.laszlo1987@gmail.com

If additional information is required to process this request, please let me know, and I will promptly provide any necessary details.

I understand the importance of data security and appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Thank you for your assistance in restoring my Firefox account.

Best regards, Ray Bann

Trying to save a web page as a PDF to Evernote; error message Can't tell if this is an Evernote problem or a Firefox problem. 1. Click the "Print" button on the web page. 2. Scroll down to "print using system dialog". 3. Click the "PDF" button and scroll down to "Save PDF to Evernote". Error message appears: "error running print workflow". I've used this function many times before and it has worked with no problems. (I tried the "Mail PDF with Postbox" option on the PDF menu and it works.)

Hail all:

Now, I got quite the few extensions, up to the amount, these cannot be brought into the Extension Bar. I could be wrong, however, there are possibly others with this issue.

Now, my question is, if Firefox could add a Grouping system within the Extensions Bar, basically drawers that you place on the Extensions Bar, which can be named (like "Writing Tools", "Saving Tools", ... .), and which act as drop-down menus, in which the extensions you placed in this drawer, to be listed when clicked? It would also clean up the Extensions Bar for people like me with many extensions, make it far more orderly ... .

Or, is there an extension which allows this?

Thank you in advance: Ke.

Hi,

How safe are bookmarks in general within my account?

If a file path is bookmarked does this provide file mgmt and hierarchy exposure to internet/ai hacking or use? - If feasible, would that mean every folder and file within the directory path is compromised? - Does this change if hyperlinks? Easier / harder?

Thanks for your assistance! Jared

I found any archived topic on not being able to customize the PDF Toolbar at all, from April 2023. But, over the weekend, my PRINT button has now moved from the first position to the last position. In fact, all 4 of the buttons have reversed themselves. It is now "Text, Draw, Image, & Print", instead of the normal Print first, etc. If we can not customize these buttons, how did they reverse themselves without my authorization? This really is inconvenient and bothers my OCD greatly.

Hello all, there's quite a few threads on spacing in the message composition window but I have not seen a thread on this specific issue. Even though I have changed the style to "body text" instead of "paragraph" when I type text and then in a subsequent line start a numbered list or a bulleted list using the format buttons, thunderbird automatically includes an extra space. I don't want this. Is there a way to eliminate this extra line?

I've attached an image to show what I mean.

thanks

Came here after a response on my google play review.

The problem is exactly as the title describes. Playing videos on various websites, such as Youtube, Vimeo, Twitter and Reddit for example, on firefox mobile (including firefox focus) results in the videos playing back with low fps instead of their native fps.

Refreshing the page the video is on sometimes fixes the issue, than once you pause the video and resume it the problem with the low fps shows up again.

Reinstalling doesn't fix it and downgrading to an older version made the problem occur less, but videos would still sometimes play back with low fps.

If screen recordings help figure out the problem please tell me.
