Firefox Community Forum

First off - love Mozilla's work, thank you all for your efforts!

The problem: I f'd up with the Profiles option. I wanted to set up a Work profile on a new windows laptop associated with a new work email (msta....), and then separately have my personal profile connected to my gmail (mstn...).

Well somehow I managed to make my Work (default) profile connected to my overall Firefox + Google personal profile, and have spent a month in my ignorance saving away settings and bookmarks on this machine. Is there anyway that I can disconnect my Gmail account from the profile Work, and connect it to the secondary profile on the same machine titled 'Mel'? Or will I need to export the last month of bookmarks, implode my Mozilla install on this machine, and start over with new profiles and better practices?

Help, multipass!

Thanks, Mel

I purchased VPN to carry on seeing Bitchute in UK....used it on my Ipad and works fine. Followed the process on my PC to download etc but it doesn't seem to work. Also can you switch it on and off seemed easy on the Ipad, but makes no sense on my PC (Windows 10) Thanks

Previously, had no problem loading YouTube videos in multiple tabs, switching between them and them playing their videos with no freezing , pausing or buffering. Since the last upgrade loading a single YouTube video causes it to freeze and continually buffer. And Firefox is spawning multile copies of itself in task manager. (One instance had 15 copies.)

The camera just won't work on google meet. It works on zoom and teams just fine. The camera preview before joining a meeting on google meet also works just fine. Sometimes it works on private mode but not always. It works perfectly on other browsers. I have turned off extensions, removed protections and restrictions, created a whole other user account on my laptop and installed firefox on it just to test it out (without signing in/syncing settings) and it still won't work. It doesn't matter whether I'm signed into a google account or not or if it's my meeting or someone else is the host. On private mode it only works if I'm signed out but again not always. Not sure what's up

Hello. I accidentally removed the VPN button from the toolbar and would like to restore it. However, when editing the toolbar, there is no option to add this button back. Please help.

When trying to set Firefox to open a file on Windows 11, it is overwritten by Firefox Nightly. I have both branches installed.

This is how it goes when attempting to set Firefox as a default application in my machine:

1. "Apps > Default Apps"
2. .mp4 (for example)
3. click the button below that displays the current default application
4. Firefox Nightly appears in this menu
5. "Choose an app on your PC"
6. "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox" ... "firefox.exe" ... "Open"
7. Firefox Nightly remains in this menu

I cannot get Firefox to appear as an available app in this menu. The only workaround, although inconvenient, is to drag and drop files straight into Firefox.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

All of a sudden I could not access our local electronic paper with FireFox. As it turn out the problem was caused by my virus protection software had the "Ad Blocker" turned on. When I turned the option off then I could access the paper. I called customer service and they evidently had done something with ads, but the person I was talking with could not tell me what it was. There suggestion was to use a browser that did not block ads regardless of the setting of my virus protection software. I do not understand how a browser can override the setting in my virus protection software.

My question is does FireFox have an option to turn off an ad blocker for a given URL?

In February this year I started having an issue with reading pdf formatted statements from my bank' (bank and personal information removed). Initially I thought it was some change at the bank so I sent the letter below to my bank.

Further experimenting with Microsoft Edge and Firefox leads me to believe the issue may be with recent changes to firefox. The attached jpg file shows the problem, though not a solution.

I would be curious to know if there is some (new) setting in Firefox to correct the problem.

re: document access on site

You have evidently made some changes in your account display and I have to tell you there are issues with it.

Previously the account document came up as PDF. Today I accessed the current statement and immediately noticed the change in display format.

I usually do two things here. First I print the document. The print button worked as expected. Next I SAVE a copy for future reference. The download button DID NOT WORK.

I had to use the print save to file function. This is where I found the problem. I saw this when I checked my print queue as well. Instead of PDF the document is now PDF.js viewer.

I have to ask why you went to java script when the original PDF format worked properly every time?

On the plus side, my pdf viewer still reads the saved file. It is the unnecessary print to file step to which I object.

I am not at all happy with this change and would encourage you to return to the previous process. Since it was NOT BROKE I am at a lost to understand WHY YOU FIXED IT.
