In Bookmarks I created folders... I put the addresses in the folder...when I click on the folder when the list shows up to the left of the folder it is not wide enough to see the names of what is in it. How do I make that list wider?
Note -- the list the list that shows up when I click on Bookmarks is fine -- I know they show up as wide as the longest name.
Thank you for your help.

What tool do you recommend to sleep inactive cards for the latest FF version? I have defaulted with the startup view of opened 400 cards, heavily loaded memory and CPU, recently it often crashes.
Maybe it would be worth it by default FF had built-in module UnloadTab, I do not know if the given program is appropriate, please recommend the best available in terms of stability of the operation would not have to lose some cards. Currently I have installed the app: Flashblock, NoScript, RAMBack - maybe they will be enough to solve my problem? As well, I have also read about about: memory Minimize memory usage.

Hi everyone!
I have strange issue with firefox recently. I can't load any videos my friends send me on facebook (in chat). There is just white window and a play button, after hitting which of course nothing happens. It looks like in the image below. Everywhere else films work fine. I tried to reinstall firefox (versions aurora, beta, stable) all with manual deleting Mozilla folders from AppData. Moreover, i tried to reinstall flash, also with manual cleaning. None of this actions solved the problem. On Chrome or Edge i don't have such a problem.
What should i do to get it working? Thanks for answers.

In Google Chrome, when I press Ctrl+P, I get the option to print the page to PDF directly, whether I have any add-on or not. However in Firefox, even after installing addons, when I click a link which opens the print dialog box (with page setting, orientation etc.), there is no option in the drop-down to print to PDF. I am stuck as I need to save a document to PDF as it does not open up in another tab. Any help?

In version 54.0, Netmonitor's Save All as HAR command no longer brings up a Save As window. This means I have no control over where the file is saved, or what name the file is saved as. Instead an Open Archive window is opened, whereby which I can open the archive with an app (which I don't want to do), or save the file with a default name in my Downloads directory (which I don't want to do either).

I have been using the Roboform toolbar in Firefox for years, and suddenly they're telling me you're no longer going to be supporting these toolbars so they've put Roboform in just a stupid little button that makes me do three times the work to use it that I did when it was a toolbar.
I don't want any stupid explanations really, especially related to webextension standards or what Chrome is doing. I don't care what they're doing. I just want you to put back support for static toolbars. . . NOW!

Since the latest FF update,any email link on any website now produces the message pictured. Apart from the now usual incredibly slow response by FF to open anything (Facebook in particular) this latest insult to FF users makes the browser almost unusable !
I tried the same links with Edge and the links work fine,this only happened since FF 54 came into being.
Perhaps you'd like to fix this latest broken FF update.

For the last two days, every time I go from any other site to Google.com.au (my homepage) Firefox crashes. I can then go back to Google, after Restoring, and I can refresh Google without crashing, but whenever I go to another site and then back to Google, it crashes again. I've done an update using Software Updater (I'm using Linux Ubuntu) and there has been no respite. Google searches haven't found anyone else who seems to have this problem - is it just me?

How do I force Firefox to NOT use the cache?
I'm doing some web development, and I cannot check my updates. Firefox is loading a cached version.
I'm using Firefox ESR 52.2.0 (32-bit) on a Windows 8.1 Pro computer.
Here are the steps I've tried:
- Shift + F5 to refresh - Shift + click refresh button - Manually cleared cache and cookies. This works for the first reload. Subsequent changes will not be shown when I reload the page. - In about:config, I changed browser.cache.check_doc_frequency to 1 with no effect. - In Inspector, ensured that Disable HTTP Cache (when toolbox is open) is checked, with no effect.
What am I missing?

I just did rebuilt my computer and have Windows 10 and Firefox 54.0 installed.
When I attempt to open several of my bookmarks at the same time by using the "Open all in tabs" feature I find that the first bookmark loads and displays while the rest of the bookmarks get a "placeholder tab titled "New Tab" that does not load until I click on the tab. At which time the tabs title changes to the bookmarked page and the content loads. I understand that this is done so that opening a large number of tabs all at the same time does not cause issues in Firefox. I found several posts that mention going into About:config and changing the "browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand" setting. I tried this and restarted Firefox and my computer but this does not fix the issue when opening multiple bookmarks at the same time. I have disabled all of my addons for testing and do not see any changes. Is there a way to force Firefox to load multiple bookmark tabs in the background?

I have a CRL distribution point for my internal CA set up such that the CRL URI points to a file that contains the CRL data for the root CAT and all intermediate CA's as a list of PEM formatted CRL blocks. A bit like this:
BEGIN X509 CRL-----
<STUFF>
END X509 CRL-----
BEGIN X509 CRL-----
<STUFF>
END X509 CRL-----
BEGIN X509 CRL-----
<STUFF>
END X509 CRL-----
Is firefox able to use all of them or does it only read the first X509 CRL block?

We are using Azure AD Conditional Access to protect our services, and require all users to have a Domain Joined (AD) or Compliant device (Intune Policy), but Domain Joined devices isn't recognized when using Firefox.
It is working for IE, Edge and Chrome, but not Firefox.
We have activated SSO for Firefox, so that is working, but the necessity to provide proof of being correct domain joined isn't working.
I cannot not find any articles saying it should work, but the upposite. My issue is I have been told it used to work, but for some reason it doesn't work anymore.

How to remove 'Mobile Bookmarks' new option in FF54 (simple please).

Updated from 53 to 54 & I get a new 'unwanted' Mobile Bookmarks option in my bookmarks. I don't have a mobile or tablet or laptop - just the 1 (one) single (get it??) computer - why would I like to 'sync' to a mobile device. How the hell do I remove this unwanted option - I've managed without it for a number of years and got used to what options are available and now another arrives. Please explain in simple terms how I can remove this. I've presently rolled back to 53 & the option has gone - so what made it magically appear - some programmer somewhere thought - ah I've got nothing better to do this week - I'll add a new bookmarker for mobile devices - maybe to EVERYONE - including those THAT DON'T NEED TO SYNC ANYTHING>. I've actually stopped updates for the moment but am willing to let 54 come back if someone will advise me how to remove this unwanted option.

My Firefox browser was running really slow, so I tried the Refresh Firefox feature. It runs great now, but do I need to keep the Old Firefox Data folder it created? I don't really like clutter in my memory. Honestly, I am not sure why it needed the refresh at all. I have a lot of bookmarks in my bookmarks menu; is that the issue? Will it hurt anything at all to delete the Old Firefox Data folder? I am not that great with computers, and I do not want to mess mine up. It's a great laptop, and if I do something wrong I don't think I will be able to fix it myself!
