Firefox Support Forum

Dear Firefox Team, Just now, when I opened a new tab, there was a survey that asked a few question and for answering that, they offered a iPphone Pro. I know it is absurd, but i would like to know if FF carries our surveys in other countries.

Please advice

Thank you in anticipation.

I've used Firefox forever, however in the last couple weeks, I can no longer use eBay as the webiste looks weird and my account is inaccessible. (See attachment.)

I've cleared all history/caches/etc. per forum suggestions. No change. So now to use eBay, I have to switch to Safari or Chrome (which I rarely use.)

Using new 2020 Macbook Pro and latest Firefox 80.0 update. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

is there a method or 3. parts tool to collapse all bookmark-folders inside the sidebar? It is very inconvenient, that all bookmark folders are expanded after their last usage!

Thanks in advance Kay

Hi Guys and Girls,

For the love of all that is keeping me alive at the moment please help solving the issue of spell checker not working.

I have a new MacBook Pro and setup Firfox by installing it and siging in to sync.

The spell checker does not underline the words as I type here or in Google or WhatsApp Web.

Also when I right click no language opion appears.

I does work in Gmail for some weird reason.

After follwing a suggestion of installing an add-on dictionary and resarting Firefox, no change came about.

See attached for more...

Thanks in advance for your help.

I 'refreshed' firefox as suggested. The guidance suggested that all my logins and passwords would be preserved but when I check the Logins and Passwords all have been cleared. I am now faced with the arduous task of resetting many many login credential. Poor advice from Mozilla.

I searched this forum but couldn't find an answer. I have "restore last session" turned on, but I'd like Firefox wouldn't reopen my last visited site after I close the browser by closing the last tab. In other words: if I close the browser by a regular means (by clicking the rightmost upper X, or by right-clicking the taskbar and choosing close window) it goes to the last viewed site when I reopen the browser – and that's ok – but when I close the last tab and the browser closes, I don't want to see this site again when I reopen Firefox. Is there a way to achieve this? By the way, this is the standard behavior in Google Chrome.

On multiple websites I visit, picture in picture happens automatically when I scroll past a video or click another section of a page. I find it highly annoying and distracting. I would like to disable it completely. How do I do this? I'd appreciate an answer that isn't too technical. Thanks.

I have always had PDFs set to "Always ask" is described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file This hasn't changed. The dialog which asks what to do with the file used to have "Save File" selected by default. This was convenient, because this is usually what I want. However, the default selection has recently changed to "Open with Firefox", which I hardly ever want. This requires me to perform an extra step when accessing PDFs from the Web, which I do quite often. I am not aware of having done anything which would affect this, nor have I found a corresponding option to change it back. How can I restore the previous behaviour?

Top sites, highlights not populating after attempting all the suggested fixes. Antivirus disabled and checked, no change. Refreshed Firefox, cleared out cache. I'm out of options. I have only empty tiles on the home screen. Pocket tiles does populate.

Hi all,

I am trying to customize my Firefox on Mac because the tabs on top interfere with the menu bar, thus I only want tree-style tab extension to work on the side, with the tabs on top disabled.

I followed this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1184674#answer-1028260 as well as this clear guide on how to create userChrome.css: https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html When I tried to restart the browser, I seemed to have been logged out of my profile, with all customization gone and a standard white (instead of black) menu. I deleted the chrome folder and it is normal again now.

I suspect the userChrome.css file should contain more than just the one line I tried to add: #tabbrowser-tabs { visibility: collapse !important; } ; Is there any location where I can copy my current intra-browser customization into the userChrome.css file?

Hello Firefox Support Team,

Since the updates from Firefox 79.0 upwards (up to and including 84.0) some animations, of my children's poems website, no longer run smoothly and round. Up to and with version 79.0 there were no "jerks" even so all ani's ran at the same time. Now I am aware that the code of my website is anything but well efficient or short and sweet. Also my PC with a Windows 7 Ultimate is rather not up to date, but as I said up to and with Firefox 79.0 everything worked fine for me. Also on my smartphones Xiomi Mi MIX 2s (Android 10(lineage_polaris OS)) & BQ Aquaris X (Android 8(lineage_bardock OS)) the same picture, up to 79.0 OK, from then and up to 84.0 no longer. Especially with the flag Ani https://mihalic.ch/index2.html and the Orbit Ani Index.html, as well as the animated menu function description that can be displayed, somehow something no longer works well during rendering.

If you could give me a hint, if in the future there is any hope at all for such' amateur html code, I would be grateful & glad. With kind regards and best wishes for this as well as the next year 2021 - Love Mario

Hallo Firefox Support Team,

Seit den Updates von Firefox 79.0 aufwärts (bis und mit 84.0) laufen einige Animationen, meiner Kindergedichte Webseite, nicht mehr flüssig und rund ab. Bis und mit Version 79.0 gab es keinerlei "Ruckeleien" auch so alle Ani's zugleich liefen. Nun bin ich mir bewusst dass der Code meiner Webseite alles andere als gut effizient oder kurz und knapp gehalten ist. Auch mein PC mit einem Windows 7 Ultimate ist ja eher nicht zeitgemäss, doch wie gesagt bis und mit Firefox 79.0 klappte mir noch alles gut. Auch auf meinen Smartphones Xiomi Mi MIX 2s (Android 10(Lineage_polaris OS))& BQ Aquaris X (Android 8(lineage_bardock OS)) das gleiche Bild, bis 79.0 OK, ab da und bis 84.0 nicht mehr. Vor allem bei der Fahnen Ani index2.html und der Orbit Ani Index.html, sowie der einblendbaren animierten Menü Funktions beschreibung klappt irgendwie beim Rendern zeitlich was nicht mehr gut.

Wenn sie mir einen Tipp geben könnten, falls künftig überhaupt noch Hoffnung für solch' laienhaften html code besteht, wäre ich dankbar & froh. Mit freundlichen Grüssen und besten Wünschen für dieses sowie das nächste Jahr 2021 - Lieb Gruss Mario

I go to the Firefox Configuration Editor (about:config page), find the signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled preference and toggle it to true. But I still don't see the entry: Import from a File…

Can someone help me? Thank you

Dear community,

I know that this seems to be an hot topic for questions, but after read some other messages I am confused on hot to proceed. This is my problem:

On a fresh installation of an Operating System on my laptop I tried to enable the firefox synch functions. After inser the password I was waiting for the pin code on my mail to certify my identity. This mail returned (I don't know why) and now my synch functions are locked. I am able to log in with my account: <jonathan.cacace@gmail.com> but I am not able to start synch. How can I solve this issue?

Regards,

Hey, I'm using the restore previous session feature. Its really helpful, but I assume since the last update it is not working properly. Whenever I use the private firefox browser (window) parallel to the normal one (window) and close the normal browser before the private one, my last active session of the normal browser is not restored.

When I close the private firefox window before the normal firefox browser window everything works fine with restoring the tabs.

Any way around? And please fix this annoying bug. Thanks!

Hi Just recently my Firefox Browser has decided to Bookmark a page with just "one click" on "bookmark this page. I need to restore the old behaviour, where I could edit what the bookmark said & in what sub-folder to place it. I do not like the new behaviour & I did not choose it. Please how can I get the original & better behaviour restored??? Thanks

I have noticed that the favicons on a website are not being created when I bookmark a new site or when I use a previous bookmark, they are not updating.

They are showing as a world globe when first created.

They used to always work so I can only assume that one of the Firefox updates has stopped this working so can someone provide any information to help get this fixed?

Thanks.
