Firefox Support Forum

In Firefox, on web pages which contain a mailto: link, clicking on that link automatically opens Thunderbird, with Write: and addressed To: the intended recipient; however, the From: is to my old email address and its related Thunderbird account. This default behavior needs to be fixed so that the From: is correctly filled in with my current email address and its associated Thunderbird account.

I've tried researching this issue from both possible sources; Firefox AND Thunderbird, but none of the knowledge base articles and forum postings related to either program have clearly addressed a solution. At this points it remains unknown which of these programs I need to focus on in order to correct the issue.

Thank you very much in advance for any assistance.

Kind regards,

I enjoy this handy addon, but it's got a couple bugs

Default Bookmark Folder

It's a recommended addon, but It seems that it's no longer being supported. Version is two years old, and issues reported on github are not responded to.

I wonder if anyone could recommend another addon with the same features.

I have tried in firefox Preferences to change the applications for file extensions when I download files. I do not want doc or other microsoft files to open aiutomaticaly in Pages, Numbers etc.. I want to use Open Office but Pages and Numbers are the default and it will not change no matter what I do,. Any ideas or help for this problem?

So I have about 20 security cams around my home. I am NOT replacing the hardware Because it took years to get this system to function properly.. And no sooner I do, everyone decided to stop supporting adobe flash!

You an't possibly tell me that there is no work around. there has to be. Someone somewhere has had to have written a work around..

When I try to forward a link from a webpage (using Firefox) it automatically sends it from my email address through Thunderbird. I'd like to switch the setting so it uses my Apple Mail email address. Is this possible?

Problem: I need to use FF without arrow keys (vim like)

[was tried to Google it]

I just successfully changed my email password then a green "DELETE ACCOUNT" box appeared with no other choices but leave the page or press the green button. I don't want to delete my email account and am worried that my email account will be automatically deleted. Can you help?

Does anyone make an effort to survey users before making changes? Some changes are just a bother but others are really imposing costs.

I see the disappearing HOME icon is a recurring problem. So, fine, I've restored the button. But my complicated half-dozen links have also disappeared and I have to reconstruct my HOME pages. Mine are complicated since they are a series of graphs (from Yahoo Finance), each with specific different parameters. It will really take me time to reconstruct this and I really resent that.

Similarly, where on earth did my plug-ins/extensions go? Again, they haven't just disappeared from the toolbar. Once I locate the icon and restore it, I find that they've disappeared from TOOLS > ADD-ONS AND THEMES. I have to go download them again? Why?

Naturally, all of this just happens to land on my plate on a very bad morning. Lesson learned: I'll make a bookmark folder to duplicate what the HOME button should bring up.

What is the point of all this?

Thanks for listening,

I have issues with background and text colors clashing making text hard or impossible to read. I have tried changing themes, clearing cache and disabling add-ons. It doesn't do it on every website but its doing it on enough of them to be frustrating.

Hi everyone, I want to use dark mode for websites in FireFox without any addon just like we can do in Chromium-Based Browsers.

This is the only thing I miss on Firefox.

Any way to achieve the same using about:config or anything?

Please guide for the same.

Is there a way to customize Page Up / Down scrolling distance ?

I have extra mouse buttons programmed to Page Up / Down keys and it is very handy for fast scrolling, but I really wish to scroll not whole page but say 80% of the page height, it would be better because I could see some portion of previous page.

Any ideas? Maybe some add-on for this?

Firefox is great. My single issue is with on Firefox “new tab” page is how can I delete apps, or apps that might be semi repetitive. I hope that makes sense? Bob H

Dears, I searched google and youtube, and I changed as many setting on Firefox and Google as I could find, including you own advice:

" Firefox To enable or disable translation in Firefox:

   Open the Firefox menu in the top right of the browser window.
   Click Preferences.
   Click Choose in the Language and Appearance section.
   Select a language to add.
   Click OK."

It does not help! I STILL receive stupid translations from the languages that I have chosen and added. It is extremely annoying...

Looking forward to your urgent help. Thank you in advance, Daiva

Both in firefox AND libreoffice the tabs and icons all around both are very small.The text in the windows themselvews is fine so how can I increase the smaller icons/tabs (total newb)

Moving mouse quickly and hit something, mouse clicked. BAM, fonts and picture to tiny size. Cannot find anything that makes that happen to undo it. All pages that site, no other site. Closing/opening Firefox stays the same. Zoomed to max and can now see, but page is not correct proportions.

Dialing a phone number with Google Voice worked before, but now fails. It prompts me to Register for that feature https://voice.google.com/calls?forceBanner=tel-registration but when I click on that link, nothing happens. [See first picture]

Settings | General | Applications seems to show 'tel' is assigned to Google Voice [see second picture] so as per a Google Voice help dialog, I changed it it 'always ask' [third picture]. This did no solve the problem.

I am currently using the latest Firefox theme. Although i have had to customize it, the colors I was used to, I am not liking. Can I restore it to look like the original, or get closer to Windows blue?
