Firefox — Fora społeczności

For sometime now, I've been unable to use the any of the Halve commands via my keyboard.

Its set to Option + any of the arrow directions, and once it worked just fine but maybe it was after an update for Firefox that it suddenly no longer worked? Granted this same command works fine for other software I have open - Discord, Calendar, Notes, etc.

I'd love to figure out why this command has stopped working or if something is preventing it from working.

Recently, I have a new problems of retaining my previous tabs from FF browser. After all of the research and recommendations, none of it is working in my case. I am not sure what I need to do now...going to use some other browsers?!

On `about:keyboard` I rebound 'Full Screen' from F11 to Ctrl+Shift+F. This works for opening full screen, but it doesn't work for exiting full screen; I have to use F11 to exit.

I can't find any other setting for exiting full screen mode, so I assume this is simply an oversight by the devs, but if not, I'd appreciate help figuring out how to rebind exiting full screen as well.

Forgive me, I'm not very tech savvy, and besides that I'm a Mac user, so basically tech-illiterate, but I'll do my best to describe this.

I'm running Firefox (which I keep updated pretty regularly; currently 159.0.1) on a MacBookPro from 2012, currently operating MacOS 10.15.7 (Catalina). I use a trackpad the majority of the time. One finger to move the mouse, two fingers to scroll the page.

When scrolling up or down on a very long webpage, the first scroll goes at a steady pace, the second scroll (in the same direction) goes at an identical steady pace, and the third scroll (in the same direction) *rockets* me all the way to the bottom. Or top. Whichever way I'm going.

This can be very difficult to work with when trying to reach somewhere in the middle of a long page. Or if I just want to go at a stable, predictable speed. (I don't mind scrolling a few extra times to get through a particularly long page.)

I have tried toggling so many settings in the "about:config", turning off acceleration, setting things to zero, but nothing I have tried has been able to turn off the RocketScroll. Would be very appreciative of any suggestions. Please let me know if there is any more information I can provide to solve this issue.

I allowed the current update yesterday, and am now unable to use a right mouse click to copy/paste text or links. I have looked through the settings, but do not see anything pertaining to the actions taken with the mouse at this level of granularity. I note that this is not a global change on my system, as right click for cut/copy/paste is still available in my editor and terminal. I would provide a screenshot, but the dialog box refuses to stay open when I try for a screenshot.

I read an article recently about 'session hijacking' and decided that every time I quit Firefox, I wanted to delete cookies & clear site data as well as browsing history.

However I wanted to know if it's possible to do that as well as all open tabs to be persist & be reopened through the quit and restart cycles (albeit logged out if it's website where I was logged in) but I can't get it to work as there appears to be a contradiction in all these options.

FF 159.0 macOS 10.15.8 Catalina (yes, ancient os I know) using the extension Tree Style Tab

I've been adding exceptions for some websites Privacy and security > Browsing data > Manage exceptions & History > Customise history > Choose what you want Firefox to remember > Advanced settings > Manage exceptions.

Home and startup > Startup > Open previous windows and tabs is checked but must be overridden by the other options.

Any advice on what settings will achieve what I want or even if it's possible? TIA

I have downloaded multiple versions of firefox, and when I browse to a site, the response is: MUST ENABLE JAVASCRIPT. I am 81 yo and get confused as to how accomplish this. Please advise!

Where I live recently changed to a new timezone and while windows is set to the correct timezone, firefox did not get the memo and timestamps on every website are now an hour behind. I do use a vpn but turning it off or changing locations does not change the timestamps. I have tried restarting the browser and already confirmed privacy.resistFingerprinting is set to false.

How can I change the time in firefox or force firefox to sync to my windows time?

The place to designate the default save folder for bookmarks has disappeared. It used to be in settings. If it is no longer in settings is there somewhere in about:config to select default save folder for bookmarks?

There is an entry: browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation However it is some nonsensical coded entry: 9OZ32sF7u5y7 I do not know if it can be replaced with a folder name.

please fix for change alphabets keyboard shortcut in settings... "T" for Open Link in New Tab and Translate selected link.. Thank you

Can anyone help me get out of Multi-Line Mode in Firefox Desktop Web Developer Tools? I need to run specific commands and it doesn't behave like I expect it to. Any help is appreciated. Many thanks! 🙂

like instead of selecting the "clean copy" from the drop down which is just a split second. can't you just give us a toggle in the settings to just always clean copy for any copied link?

When you go to the "Help and Support" section, a link for transferring data to another device appears. It clashes with the overall design and is annoying. Please remove it.

I noticed it now but i dont remember it doing like this. When i swipe left to go back to prevews page it makes little clicking sound (literal clicking noise when i press it, it makes the same sound). Is there a way to turn that off. I hope you understand my problem.
