Firefox: форум сообщества

Running Firefox 140.8.0esr (64-bit) on Windows 10 Pro on an HP laptop. The feature/problem described works properly with Chrome and Edge. The problem occurs when accessing the following article:

If the window is set wide enough, there is a sidebar displaying, "Share this content in X". If the screen is squeezed down (i.e. drag the right margin to the left) far enough, the sidebar will disappear. That feature is handled properly, but as the window width is increased and the sidebar appears, the main body of text does not wrap properly. It appears that Firefox is not compensating for the width of the sidebar.

I have been using Firefox for many years and I was satisfied with this browser. For the last 2-3 weeks I have had a constant message that reads

I did everything, I deleted, I enabled cookies, cleared cache, but the next day the same message is repeated again. I'm tired of it because I have to retype my passwords every day and I'm close to permanently using MS Edge which serves me perfectly fine. Please give me the correct instructions on what to do to get Firefox to load my email normally again or I'm really going to quit Firefox forever.

I'm trying to stream a show in the firefox browser and I am getting error saying the HLS is not up to date. I've checked my firefox is at the latest update, is this something you need to update on your end?

bold text''''bold text' In Settings under Startup, I have check to open all my previous tabs, but when I am shutting down, Firefox wants to close all my tabs before shutting down. If Firefox closes all my tabs on shutdown, then those tabs will not be there next time I start up .... how can I keep my tabs when I shutdown and have them next time I start up

Hi, I am getting error "Oops, something went wrong loading this content".

I downloaded firefox 148.0 x64 (from your webpage) on my new windows 11 PC. After setting up for a barebone firefox. I set "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.search.useHandoffComponent" to FALSE to have searches NOT USE address line and that is when I get "Oops..." error. My setup always worked on my Win10 system, can you help?

Attempted to update FF using the 140.2.0esr.msi file. During install it asked for a location of bookmarks (seemed off, like a new install) so the process was stopped. All FF profile files appeared to have been untouched based on their dates. So the following directories: \AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\oeg1ubpo.default-esr \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\oeg1ubpo.default-esr where both copied to a secondary directory as a safety precaution. Install was restarted and it appears to have again installed a new version with no bookmarks, extensions or password DB carried forward from the previous install, which is not what I wanted.

Can this be corrected, by moving the copied profile back in.

Thanks, Brian

my favorite browser firefox isnt enough help to keep my privacy secure (Its 100% confirmed)

I just learnt that my internet provider is blocking some domain like web.telegram.org which is very annoying. The solution i found on internet is vpn or tor browser.

Am i expecting something from firefox that it cant help me with?

A free vpn or tor browser like functionality?

I am so sorry to go away from it but look like if there is no way firefox can help me secure my privacy then i will have to.

Please try to be friend and help like a friend

... just that. Actually I wanted to print a selection, but if the selection is longer than one page, only one page will print. So I thought if I could save the selection to a file, and then print that file, I'd solve my problem.

I am switching from firefox to firefox-esr. Version 147.0.3 to 140.7.0esr, start firefox with --allow-downgrade which mostly works. What does not is the "Home default" page, it is blank and can not even be configured to what it was because the settings page is also blank, nothing below "choose what content ...".

I have done this on 4 machines now with same failure for the home page. settings. My previous workaround was new profile and import data so the setting page is therein ESR. This is a far harder than it should be there being no single export-import. I had to export import history with a third party plugin and cookies the only method [I found] was to copy the sqlite file. Others like password export-import are fragmented.

After tinkering with about:config (shouldn't have...) the background of every page that does not specify a body background color turns the color of my theme background color.

Using the firefox color pipette says its white, but it clearly isn't.

The theme i have is dark, making any page that expects the background to be white unreadable (without DevTools -> Body -> background-color: white)

I haven't been able to find the config that fixes it.

What happened to the feature in Settings that allows turning off Firefox control of mouse.

I do not bother to remember the name of the setting, because I simply turned it off each time there was an update, to avoid the problems it caused. NOW, it is no longer in settings.

I first notices a problem when links on a banner did not work. It did no occur to me it was due to Firefox control of the mouse.

Next the mouse wheel function, configured in the OS, that scrolls three lines has become dysfunctional. It jumps around and jerk up and down when I use it to scroll 3 lines which is a huge time waste.

Then I went to settings to turn off the mouse feature and it was not there! So I looked in about:config and there is a huge list of mouse settings that appear to be configured the way Firefox has universally done without any way to disable Firefox control of the mouse.

Lastly, I do not have the mouse configured for accessibility; I have it minimally configured the way I need it in the computer OS settings. The Firefox configuration of how the mouse functions in Firefox also creates the same wheel problem when not using the browser.

How can Firefox universal configuration of the mouse be disabled. Nothing about it is useful or helpful, it creates a number of obstacle - primarily interference with the use of the mousewheel, and on some websites (primarily configured for the use of Chrome) the banner links are not responding to the mouse.

I do not have an accessibility configuration, nor do I use keyboard mouse shortcuts, Last time I updated I actually installed the entire program, hoping to avoid the Microsoft control of Firefox since the update feature apparently uses the microsoft app to update and takes control when Firefox is the default browser (perhaps also when it is not) - to no avail.

Please at least return the feature to disable Firefox mouse settings that allows turning off the configured mouse setting, or at least offer a solution for disabling them!!

On my steam deck, from time to time, the firefox's touchscreen support seems to switch modes.

The symptoms are:

- Instead of scrolling, one-finger touch-and-drag now zooms in and out (depending on direction)
- The touchscreen no longer lets me select or close tabs, or focus or click in-page widgets
- This mode-switch is restricted to the firefox window in which it happens
  - Moving the tab to a new window results in the new window working fine
  - Other existing windows are unaffected (although they may later experience a touch mode switch  event)

I have yet to determine what triggers this switch, nor can I figure out how to undo it.

Hi, 48 hours ago I upgraded firefox 140.5.0(esr) to 140.7.0(esr), and now, 48 hours later, everything suddenly stopped to work and I cannot load pages anymore.

48 hours is the lifetime of my kerberos ticket. After 48 hours firefox should send a new ticket to the applications, but 140.7 doesn't. The ccache in the application is empty!

I downgraded back to 140.5, and immediately everything works again.

Was support for GSSAPI/kerberos/SPNEGO removed between 140.5 and 140.7, and why so? Otherwise, how do I get it to work again?
