After an update for Firefox Developer Edition on Arch Linux (I don't know which), my URL bar doesn't show the selected text when typing or pressing Ctrl+A.

In the uploaded image, you can see i typed "e", but it doesn't highlight the entire en.wikipedia.org url. the second result still shows the e's in the URL bolded though.

I've tried disabling hardware acceleration, changing my GTK theme, and also changed my Firefox Theme, yet none work.

I am using Firefox to conduct Securus Jpay video connect visits and I have been unable to join a scheduled session due to what I believe is failure of the downloaded VRE client to load. When I do a precall test, everything, including the VRE client works correctly and I'm told that I will be able to run a session successfully. However, just as the video connect visit is about to begin, I am told to download the VRE client to continue. I have don't this multiple times, deleting each prior download and re-doing the download +installation. It's been very frustrating and I've tried everything. Up until about 2 weeks ago, everything was working smoothly. I'm stumped. Please help. thank you.

Firefox version 153.0.1 causing hangup when "Clear Recent History" is selected.

Immediately after I downloaded the latest update 153.0.1 for Firefox on the Mac, I noticed an issue with the Clear Recent History request. Whenever I select Clear Recent History (under History in the top bar menu), the popup box that opens always shows it is "calculating" the data, even if I only visited one website and closed it (or left it open). If the Clear button is active, I will click it and the box closes, but I never know if the history was cleared.

However, many times, the Clear button is grayed out while the "calculating" is in progress, and it freezes up the popup box. I cannot close it or click on any other part of the screen. It appears to freeze (crash) Firefox. My only option then is to quit Firefox and reopen it. When I do, the popup box is gone. But I still have no confirmation that the history has been deleted. But after visiting one or more websites that I want cleared of history (news sites, etc) the issue reappears again as soon as I select Clear Recent History.

I have a whitelist of many sites that I allow to store cookies and site data. But for all other sites, I routinely clear my history when I am done viewing them. This issue has never happened before, so I'm wondering if it is a bug in the latest 153.0.1 update. Before I downloaded the latest Firefox update, I checked to make sure it was compatible with my current version of Ventura 13.7.8 on a MBP 2022. And the clear history issue never appeared when I was on Firefox 152.0.6.

Attached is a screenshot of what the Clear Recent History popup looks like when "calculating"...

Hi all,

Sometimes Firefox just closes a couple dozens tabs - I keep around 200 or 300 open - without my request or confirmation. It's not frequent, but quite annoying. Clicking History > Recently closed tabs > Reopen all tabs does not restore all. I don't know where I can find references for the lost tabs or Firefox logs where I could check what happened. My only suspicion is that I inadvertently rest my hand or finger somewhere in my notebook's trackpad, and somehow Firefox understand that as a request to close several tabs at once, but I have no clue if that makes any sense. I didn't test in Safe Mode because this happens too unfrequently for me to tell if Safe Mode avoids the problem.

Could you pls help me finding the reason for that? Does Firefox keep any kind of log I can check? Are there any keboard shortcuts or mouse/trackpad action that can be set up to do this?

Firefox version: 153.0.1 Distro: Linux Mint Version: 21.3 (Virginia) (Based on Ubuntu 22.04 - Jammy) Kernel: 5.15.0-186-generic

Thanks!

I'm running Windows 11 Pro on a desktop PC. I have used Firefox "Search by Image" many times and I haven't had a problem in the past. A few days ago the search failed for "some" images and now it fails for any and all images that I drag and drop into my browser. Important: It does work for images on the internet. My problem: (1) I drag and drop an image into my browser. (2) I right-click on the image. (3) I select "Search by Image". (4) I select a search engine. Absolutely nothing happens. I've tried with various images and various search engines. Still nothing happens. I don't think I'm doing anything different than I've always done. I haven't changed any settings in Firefox. Any ideas?

When a piece of text is drag-and-dropped onto FF, FF navigates to that text. So, when I am filling a form and accidentally drop the text outside a text field, FF navigates away from the page with the form I am trying to fill. I have been using FF for more than 10 years and never found this behavior to be useful. Only annoying and counter productive. If FF at least opened a new tab, I could close it and not lose the work done so far. But ideally there would be no navigation at all. Dropping a piece of text on a webpage should not trigger any navigation. I need a setting to disable that behavior completely. PLEASE!!! 🙏

If I re-download Firefox will it access all of my stored information and preferences?

I love having the VPN Add-on on my Windows 11 laptop and now I see that there's a plug in for my Android Tablet, too.

I see there's options to turn OFF the VPN, but i don't need it on all the time. To save the data limit, I keep the VPN turned off.

There are some sites that I log into that require me to either not be from Australia amd some I need to be VPN linked to specific countries, like the UK or USA.

Will there be a place to be able to list particular websites to turn the VPN ON for, and, where needed, specify a country to connect to?

Hi.

I'm using Firefox 153.0 on Fedora 44 with GNOME 50. Everything is up to date at this date. I know that Firefox is supposed to support fractional scaling on Wayland since version 146.0. However, it does not work on my device.

As you can see, the first screenshot is when Firefox is in fullscreen mode. Fractional scaling seems to work and the text and picture are very sharp. However, when I resize the window, it looks like Firefox does not support fractional scaling (see my second attached screenshot). The text is blurry and not as sharp as when the window is in fullscreen mode.

Hi, Check out the attached screenshot. This is the image FF saves when a user does the following action on any page: Take screenshot > Save full page

I have almost 20 such screenshots where the Google AI answers are overlapping and certain areas of the screenshot are overlapping and cut off (in the attached screenshot, the Step-by-Step points number 2 and 3 for Fluffy Breakfast Pancakes is cut off). Really annoying. I would appreciate the concerned team taking a look and a fix for this.

To recreate: Ask Google AI anything (this is the Google AI that you get to from the google.com homepage by clicking the AI Mode button) and make sure the answer require some scrolling. Then right-click and Take Screenshot > Save full page. Overlapping/cut off screenshot is saved. Thanks
