Firefox 社群討論區

I have a new MacBook Pro M5, with MacOS Tahoe Version 26.5.2, and currently running Firefox 153.0. Over the past few days, I've noticed that the Fn-Delete (forward delete) is not working in the file name field when downloading a file from the internet. Fn-Delete is working everywhere else.

I'm not certain if this started when I set up the new computer, updated the MacOS or updated Firefox. I'm pretty sure all have occurred within the past couple weeks.

Thanks.

On all my PC's, (Win 10 & 11) downloads go to the folder I specified even though "Always Ask" is checked. This results in hundreds of files (statements, receipts, documents of interest) that I have to then move to the correct folders and unimaginable congestion and chaos in the directory.

I (and many others) would really appreciate it if FF would give priority to fixing some of these longstanding glitches, rather than pushing unneccessary and unneeded glitz on us.

If I go to save something from within Firefox (on MacOS desktop browser), if I try to forward delete some characters, nothing happens. I can go to the address bar and forward delete characters within a URL, but doesn't appear that I can do so in other dialog boxes within Firefox. I've verified issue persists in debug mode as well as standard mode (and just re-freshed firefox within the last day and thought that had resolved the issue until realizeing forward delete will still work in URL field, but not in firefox dialog boxes like the save as window when downloading something.

I haven't changed anything in Firefox Browser settings. But when I open a bank statement, it is opening in the firefox browser, not in Acrobat. For years it opened in Acrobat. I checked Firefox Settings - Downloads for .pdf and it is still set to open them in Acrobat application. I have toggled the options, but still will not open in Acrobat. I have rebooted PC and tried again, still not opening the .pdf in Acrobat. Please advise what I should do Thank you

Copying this from a Reddit post as I have the same issue and looking for a solution:

Recently in the past month or so, the Del/Delete key has stopped working in Firefox's Save As dialog box popup. Literally every other key works fine system-wide, and Del works in everything but Firefox's Save As box.

To elaborate... Opening up the Save As box for anything in Firefox—a page, a file, an image, etc.—and trying to use the Del key to delete characters in the filename field just doesn't work. Backspace works fine, all other keys work fine.

The only way to get Del to work in that scenario is by pressing Shift+Del instead, which is odd because it didn't used to be like that.

I know the obvious answer is "Just don't use the Del key to edit a filename when saving files in Firefox" or "Use the backspace key insted", but I've been doing it this way for so long that it's pure muscle memory at this point.

I've tested/confirmed that the Del key stops working this way in regular Firefox, private windows, and troubleshooting mode, so I don't think it's an issue with addons or extensions. I can't pinpoint anything else on the system that might be causing it either; it really does seem to be an inherent Firefox issue that's suddenly popped up.

If i want Firefox browser to download the xpi file and save it locally when I click on the download link button for the xpi file, instead of installing it as an add-on. What should I do?

I get emails with attachments that I often can't open. I am very NON-tech savvy. It seems jpg opens fairly easily. I got a statement that opened easily, but MANY photo attachments with only "?" - no "jpg" - asked me where to file them, how to name them. I don't know before seeing the attachment. It bothers me to have to call service providers repeatedly and ask them to send things in different formats. Google tells me I can set Mozilla preferences to always open automatically, but now, with AI, I got redirected. Your help will be appreciated!
