Hello, I have wanted to move from Chrome to Firefox for some time and I finally got to try it out today. Something that has bothered me since the beginning is that right clicking when the cursor hovers over text behaves differently than I'm used to.

This is the behavior I want:

1. User action: With the cursor over text.
2. User action: Right click / double click if in Mac
3. Browser action: The word that the cursor is hovering should be automatically selected and the appropriate actions (copy, select all, search…, etc.) should appear in the contextual menu.

Instead of those options in the contextual menu, the normal page options are appearing (Save Page As, View Page Source…).

Where do I change this behaviour?

Additionally, how can I make the contextual menu include the «Look Up "foo"» option as it does in Chrome (Mac)?

PS: check the names of the images; basically: Chrome; Firefox-what-I-get; Firefox-what-I-want

In "about:networking#dnslookuptool" when a DNS test is performed the HTTP RR value is NS_ERROR_UNKNOWN_HOST.

What does the https RR value represent and why the error?

When logging on to a website it used to be possible to show the current password that is automatically being input. That is no longer possible it seems so now you have to search the passwords for that website to locate it and then display it that way. But many times the current website is not saved under an obvious name. This makes it next to impossible to locate what used to be right in front of you (current website logon password). The worst is my current case where you lose your gmail password and try to locate it with a search of the passwords but since gmail address is the user name for 100's of websites there are 100's of results to try to find the gmail password. When it comes to Microsoft website there is zero results to Microsoft in the Firefox password search even though Firefox easily logs me in. Why did Firefox stop allowing the user to see the current password being input to websites. if they did not stop that access then I do not know how to do it anymore. Used to be a simple right click on the password field. Then you could go direct to the password manager location of that website.

Hello. I hope someone can help me. For the last 3 or 4 weeks the Walmart grocery site is not working right. For anyone familiar you know that there is a little heart you click on for your favorites, and on the right side of the page is your items currently in your shopping cart. Ok, neither of those is working in Firefox right now. It is working fine in Opera but not Firefox which is my preferred browser. (I was using Opera for a while and one of their updates caused the same issue, they saw it about a week later and it works there now.) I have attempted several restarts with addons disabled. As far as I can remember the only thing that I have changed in about:config was "browser.urlbar.update1" (that has been changed for a long time) ...I went in and changed it back but that made no difference. Does anyone have any ideas? I really dislike having to open a separate browser for 1 site. I have attached a picture showing what I am referring to. Thank you in advance Kathy

I did NOT enroll in any FF studies. Yet, moderator Cor-el said the app.normandy preferences will install new features and 'shield studies' anyways. I stopped downloading FF updates after v.84. I wanted to avoid the disastrous change to the print function that showed up on another computer. I spent hours trying to figure out what happened and how to get rid of of it. Nevertheless, Firefox installed this unwanted print 'update.' So my question is whether it is safe to turn off or delete all the app.normandy preferences in about:config ? Or do I only need to change the settings on a few? If so, which ones. What happens if I change these?

I'm running Arch btw, with GNOME Shell 3.38.3 and Firefox 86.0 (64-bit).

If I have Firefox already open and I click on a link inside of another app, Firefox displays the following error message and the link fails to open.

Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox, you must first close the existing Firefox process, restart your device, or use a different profile.

However, if I close Firefox and then click the link again, Firefox will correctly open the link.

Hi,

When I use inspect element, there's obviously the main HTML pane, and then the tabbed pane with CSS rules and the sort. When I pop out inspect element to its own window, it looks like the first image attached. However, dragging it and maximizing it on my second monitor makes it look like the second image. Obviously, this is less than ideal for this layout. As far as I'm aware, this is purely a responsive layout, with no user overrides (3-pane mode's docs only say "At narrower browser window widths, the tabs appear below the CSS Rules pane.) My question then, is if there is a way to override this? If so, I'm all ears, and if not, I do think that's something that should be considered.

hello there and good evening:3 my husband and i are having this repetitive and extremely frequent bright yellow pop up with a robot that states "a webpage might be slowing down your browser." then the option to wait, or stop it. i've ran out of patience with this notification to the point to where even though i'de hate to, i would have no choice but to switch back to chrome just to stop being spammed by this pop up while im trying to relax. it happens more frequently on youtube and walmart.com, and i just want it to stop because it seems as if when it does show up, once it starts it never stops, and it actually slows down my webpage to the point of becoming unresponsive and stalling/crashing my only webpage open at the time. my husband has the same issue and we both use windows desktop. it only started appearing after the latest update. please, can someone help me make this thing go away? its very stressful and i cant browse in peace anymore on firefox. yes we have turned off all background processes, and we both have scowered settings troubleshooting for hours at a time to no avail, it just never stops and it behaving like a really bad bug.

I accidentally lost the recommended articles which can be saved to pocket (optional). There should be a checkbox that asks: ARE YOU SURE ? There must be an EASY way to get the articles back. While I'm here I'd like to say that a lot of the help files or comments don't have any pictures. A picture IS worth a thousand words so it would be nice to have more of that. Someone could ask you what someone else looked like and you could sit there and type a long time or (so much faster) show them a picture if you have one, right ? Let's go a step further and use a dismantled car engine. Even more complex. Are you starting to get it ?  :-)

Hello everyone.

I tried switching Firefox (Windows 10) from Polish to English. (It is nice to see a program in your native language. However, most manuals, tutorials, forums etc. on the Web are in English, so using English version of apps wherever possible feels straightforward and consistent). I found one functionality that is browser language dependent for no reason - availability of search engines. Specifically, allegro.pl (Polish auction site). It's there by default when Firefox language is set to Polish. When I switch to English, it disappears along with other default Polish search engines, only to be replaced by English ones.

When I try a "manual" setup of search engines, allegro.pl is nowhere to be found. Firefox settings -> find search engines - no official allegro search engine (just some fan-made add-ons). Go to allegro.pl -> Firefox search bar - I expected the icon of magnifier with green plus sign that would add the search engine of current site - again it's not there.

Is there any workaround? Cheers, Rafał

SENHORES, VOCÊS CRIARAM UM NAVEGADOR MARAVILHOSO, MAS NO MENU CONFIGURAÇÃO E IMPRESSÃO, EU FIQUEI UM DIA INTEIRO PROCURANDO PARA VER SE CONSEGUIA ACHAR O BOTÃO CONFIGURAR PAGINA, PORQUE EU USO UMA IMPRESSORA EPSON FX 890 E PARA QUE IMPRIMA O QUE PRECISO ELA PRECISA SER CONFIGURADA COM CABEÇALHO 0, RODAPÉ 0, DIREITA 5,0 E ESQUERDA 5,0 DE MARGEM, MAS EU NÃO ACHEI EM CANTO NENHUM O BOTÃO CONFIGURAR PAGINA DE IMPRESSÃO PARA QUE PUDESSE USAR A IMPRESSORA SEM O DESALINHAMENTO DO PAPEL. EU ACHEI ESTE BOTÃO NO FIREFOX 83 DEPOIS DISSO NÃO ACHEI NOUTRAS VERSÕES. É UM BOTÃO IMPORTANTÍSSIMO PRECISO ACHA-LO NA VERSÃO 86 SE EXISTIR. SOCORRO. NÃO ACHEI NA INTERNET UM TUTORIAL QUE ME AJUDASSE TODOS DIZEM PARA CLICAR NO BOTÃO CONFIGURAR PAGINA, MAS NA VERSÃO 86 ELE NÃO ESTA EM CANTO NENHUM.

All PC's mentioned below are on the same router and LAN, and all are using Firefox 86 x64 on Windows 10.

I have been a Firefox user for many, many years (I started using browsers in the 90's, 'nuff said). But having recently reinstalled a PC, I found myself unable to initiate sync on the new Firefox install there. I kept getting the error "NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource." in a red box when I entered my password. Perplexed, I tried creating a support ticket on another of my PC's (let's call it #2) - same error there when trying to sign in to Firefox support! I then tried to use that browser to access my account by going to Account Settings -> Manage Account. I was met with a circle animation - and a completely blank webpage.

This post is being created from my third PC, where, for some odd reason, the Manage Account function actually works, and where I was also able to sign into support. I made a change to my bookmarks on PC/Firefox #2, to see if sync was still working - and it did come through to PC #3. After that, I was finally able to start a sync on PC #1 (the newly installed one).

But I am still unable to do anything with my account on PC #2. Can't sign in to support, can't access Manage Account. And this cannot be purely about the profile or installation, as the issue was affecting PC #1 as well.

It seems like Mozilla's account management is really wobbly, and my prime suspect is the shift to "Firefox Accounts" on the support pages recently. But I'm open to being proved wrong.

Just hoping someone out there can tell me what this issue is, and how I fix it. The fact that I was unable to sign in to my Firefox Account from a completely new Firefox install makes me very uncomfortable. And my primary PC (#2) is still unable to manage that account, or sign in to the support pages.

Thanks in advance.

For some reason, when I launch Zoom from Firefox, I cannot display my name automatically in Arabic. If I log in to someone else's meeting, it works fine, and if I log in via a different browser like Chrome it works fine. It is only if I launch Zoom from firefox. Any suggestions?

I get a message under the toolbar in bright yellow background that Firefox is slowing my browser down when I am browsing certain web sites such as clothing and sometimes on the Yahoo news site. This is happening more frequently and I would like to know how to fix it. Thanks

sine Ver 84 update , when you want to edit a bookmarks , the alignment in the middle of the bookmarks name and the name is highlighted for some reason. did anyone notes and how i can put it back to normal as i do edit a lot of my bookmarks and i usually just add the date in front of the name ( the name is way longer than the screen shot i attached )

I've been having the problem of websites loading slowly on Firefox for a few days now. Firefox itself loads quickly, but opening Youtube for example takes a very long time.

I have this problem since I have a new internet line, yet this is most likely not the problem, since on chrome this problem does not occur.

As a solution I have cleaned firefox and even clean reinstalled it. However, the problem still occurs. I suspect that this is a problem related to my profile. Even opening it without addons does nothing.

Any ideas?

Hello, I recently sent my firefox crash report to mozilla including the webpages I was visiting.

My concern is: will be kept the privacy of the page I was visiting? simply because it was my email and linkedin account :)

thanks,

I recently attempted to log in to a credit card processing site with the username and password stored in Firefox. Firefox auto-supplied just my username, and when I tabbed to the password field to enter that info, the username disappeared. If I tried to enter the password and return to the username field, the password disappeared. The site naturally read this as an incorrect login attempt. Tech support for the site suggested this was a browser issue and recommended I switch to another browser, and they advised clearing the cookies and cache before each time I log into their site. Sort of defeats one benefit of having a computer.

I'm using version 86.0 of Firefox released 2/23/21 -- my last successful use of the site was 2/15/21 so I'm wondering if anybody else has seen this happen in version 86.0?
