Firefox Support Forum

I updated Firefox on July 1, 2023 and the dark mode stopped working. I used to be able to have all website and pages dark, I've been looking for a solution or work around with no luck. Any forum questions that I've read has all sounded like a "canned" answer with no results. The questions asked were never answered, and it's been very frustrating. I have glaucoma and have great problems looking at a white screen. Even this page is bright white and hard to read and I'm unable to change it to dark. I've been hoping to see an update solving this problem but there hasn't been one. Please send me a real resolution for this problem. Thank you

just updated to 115.0.1 on the Mac yesterday and now tradingview website isn't working - i tried adding it as an exception in EnhancedTracking and CookieSiteData like i did with ebay to get it working again but no luck with tradingview... any ideas ? thx

Hi. Is there a way to customize the order of Firefox headers and footers on printed pages (including print-to-pdf)?

I prefer the header to be url only, in the center. While the footer has page on left; title in the center, and date on the right.

This used to be easy to accomplish with print options in older versions, then -- as the print dialog changed (and actually improved a lot in most *other* ways) I had to turn to about:config modifications like those described in the 1/27/21 reply here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1323433. But now I can't seem to find any way to have any control over print headers besides "on" and "off."

One problem I find with having both page title and url on top is that these can be long, causing one or both to be truncated.

I'm using Firefox 115.3esr.

When I go to youtube from firefox the page is WAY to large for the screen. This started last week. I can't figure out anyway to get the old screen back. Today I tried going to youtube from google and everything worked normally. How can I fix this? I wasn't doing anything in firefox to try to manipulate youtube. It just started misbehaving on its own. HELP, I don't want to need to use google.

Thanks

Hi - Javzscript Enable, though "True", still brings up the error "Enable Javascript". I spent hours on this, but nothing useful was found. Has any one had this problem, and if so, were they able to fix it?

Best regards, Nick.

When I pressed the "+" symbol at the right side of my tabs with the left mouse button, a new tab opens at the most right place. So far, so easy.

When I pressed the same "+" symbol using the middle mouse button, the new tab opened right beside the active tab. Now, middle mouse button and left mouse button do the same thing.

Work around could be to open the context menu (right mouse button) of a tab, choose "new tab" an get a new tab right beside the tab chosen with the mouse pointer while pressing the right mouse button.

Did something recently change?

trying to open 3d model on this site https://teemo.gg/viewer/league-of-legends/champions/katarina/0 its start loaded model but nothing was showed in browsers based on chromium everything works fine

Recently YT is barely loading videos with the message "if playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device" or it simply stuck tried on edge and it doesn't happened can anybody help me diagnose this problem?

Restarting FF doesn't always work has to be done multiple times, and it soon breaks after browsing or restarting the browser

The grey bar on the player does load but the player never plays its just back

I have multiple monitors and most often have Firefox windows open on each. Lately, I've been noticing that the Desktop Window Manager process is consuming a huge amount of RAM. At the same time, consumption completely disappears with the closing of Firefox windows. Video: https://i.imgur.com/pHCa7Hh.mp4 (I left it for a while then closed Firefox windows) After a while, I noticed that already 13 GB of memory is being used by DWM. I don't know if sites affect behavior, but most often I have https://music.yandex.ru/home open

OS: Windows 11 (Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22621.1928]). Firefox: 115.0.1 (64-bit) Screen setup: 1 - 3840 x 2560 with 200% scale, 2 - 1920 x 1080 with 100% scale.

My preferences are set so that "When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately" is OFF. Therefore most of the time when I Cmd+click on a link, it opens on a new tab that loads in the background. This is what I want.

However, some websites break that behavior. 2 high-profile examples:

• In Google Docs, if a piece of text links to an URL, clicking on the text shows a small window with the URL. Cmd+click on that URL opens it in a new tab, and takes me to that tab.
• In Facebook Messenger, if I Cmd+click on a chat, again the chat opens in a new tab and I'm taken there. Additionally, the original tab activates that chat.

Interestingly, in both these cases, I get the right behavior if I right-click on the URL or in the chat and in the contextual menu choose "Open link in new window/tab/container tab": the new tab stays in the background.

So my question is: does anyone know of a way to always make cmd+click behave just like "Open link in new tab", no matter the website?

I'm on Firefox 115b4 on macOS, but this has been like this for years at least.

Buenos días a todos.

Estaba revisando el historial de navegación de mi Firefox desde el menú Historial/Mostrar todo el historial. Como ya sabéis, para movernos por el historial tenemos de ayuda un menu vertical a la izquierda, en el cual podemos seleccionar un determinado mes. Pero por error he eliminado la carpeta que decía "anterior a 6 meses" y me gustaría recuperarla.

Tengo entendido que Firefox guarda el historial de navegacion en el fichero places.sqlite, el cual ya tengo ubicado, pero no se qué hacer con el.

Agradezco cualquier ayuda. Gracias.

Our IT specialist at UW-Madison is stumped and suggested I reach out to Firefox. He was helping me troubleshoot why Firefox keeps saying it's sending a code to verify my account, but I never receive the code. He has added the "accounts" email to my contacts and I don't know what else to do or try. Any ideas from the community? I need my bookmarks after upgrading to Windows 11 and can't imagine trying to recreate them all.

I have multiple internal websites, which all follow the pattern of [site.one.two] which resolves fine using the internal DNS server i have configured by going to https://site.one.two and through other programs via site.one.two, and all the [one.two] suffixes are blacklisted from being resolved with DoH in firefox, but it still forces a web-search, even with searching from address bar being turned off, instead of resolving through my local DNS server (local server resolves local domain suffixes, anything else gets resolved through cloudflare DNS). I haven't found a fix in any other forums, and there are enough unique internal addresses that manually adding each and [every site.one.two] as an exception would be something i would like to avoid. Is there any way to tell firefox to resolve through DNS first for addresses or domain suffixes?

I have not been able to connect to www.paperbackswap.com for 2 days using Firefox. I get this message - The page isn’t redirecting properly-An error occurred during a connection to www.paperbackswap.com. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies. This is a persistent problem happening every few days. I have sent messages before to PBS and Firefox with no response. I have cleared cookies and added PBS to Firefox as a site to always accept cookies. I can access the site using Chrome but I would prefer Firefox. Is there anything that can be done?

Ever since I update Firefox a month or so ago, every time I open the browser it wants to restore my last session. I've went into setting and check it to make sure I did have it on. I even turn it on, rebooted and the took it off and rebooted. Nothing seams to work. Any help?

I received a message from Fire Fox that I should update. Now I have 2 Fire Fox icons and I need to know how to determine which one to delete. Then I need to know how to transfer my favorites and history to the one I keep. They both show favorites and history. I'm a rookie at this so if you can explain step by step it would help, thanks.
