Hello! Since a month I have a strange problem - Firefox wont connect to any Google service - REcaptcha, google-analytics. Any site that uses these services would not load, or loads and waits until connection expires. I tried refreshing Firefox, the uninstalling and re-installing - the problem remains. I do not use any proxy or firewall on my computer. Opera and other browsers do not have this problem. Please, advice.

I can't turn off lazy loading. I set the following about:config settings to "false":

browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand browser.sessionstore.restore_tabs_lazily browser.sessionstore.restore_pinned_tabs_on_demand

Nothing changes. When I start Firefox, it simply won't load all tabs. How do I fix this?

I research a LOT. So I have 12,000+ Bookmarks in 100's of subfolders covering 100's of topics. The only conceivable way to organize them is to view the contents of many subfolders SIMULTANEOUSLY and be able to do massive drag & drops between them.

Just like I could do 15 years ago using the old Windows Favorites folder and the 100's of subfolders within it.

(In my opinion it was a really BAD idea to stray from that paradigm. When I moved to Firefox I went from being VERY well-organized to having a complete cluster. In the old days I could IMMEDIATELY access any Favorite via Start Menu or any other Windows way. The unwieldiness of Firefox's Library -- in the context of a hi volume of Bookmarks -- has made such organization impossible, and rendered my Bookmarks practically useless.)

If I had access to the old way, I could probably organize 12,000 Bookmarks in a day. The present Firefox Library is gonna take me about 2 weeks -- seriously. Because I can only view the contents of 1 folder at a time and also because a ton of scrolling is necessary to drag & drop. And lastly because I don't have the contextual "forest" visible to me for decision-making since I can only see 1 "tree" at a time. Basically its NOT DO-ABLE. Surely I can't be the only person with this issue.

My searches for a solution have only turned up the apparently defunct PlainOldFavorites extension.

This has been painful for well over a decade, but its reached a crisis point. Thank you.

Unable to use "Select All" in Yahoo email. Unable to select single email to delete without opening. Unable to delete email once opened. Unable to use any buttons above the email to move it anywhere. Unable to delete Spam and Trash folders. Can see emails and get into them but cannot do anything with them once open. Cannot send emails or attach files to them prior to attempting to send.

The shift+esc keyboard shortcut now opens the Process Manager....

How do I change this shortcut? Or get rid of it altogether? Every time I shift+esc the process manager opens and it's just unnecessary.

I checked the box in privacy settings to "Block new requests asking to allow notifications". But I am constantly asked by multiple web sites if I will allow them to send me notifications. I despise the very idea of push notifications and will never use them or allow them. If this option in settings does not work, then why is it there? Is there a way to make the browser impervious to push notification requests?

Hello,

I am browsing the latest FF and I keep getting the sign in with google pop up on so many sites and I really don't want to sign in with G on so many sites.

I tried setting "Google Account sign-in prompts " to off in my G accounts permissions page but the pop up is still popping.

Any ideas why?

Thanks

Im not even sure if this is possible, but figured id post here rather than email FF support and clog up time. ~

I have a file i use on firefox, using the developer mode as a way to turn it into an extention but anytime i reboot my firefox it clears and i need to go into developer mode and make the file an extention on my browser once again. I was wondering if theres a way i can upload the file to my firefox, as an almost local/private extention just for me.

Its nothing malicious, simply helps me use a VPN to watch F1TV pro as im from the UK and it doesnt work here. The extention im working isnt made by me, and hasnt been approved by firefox to make it an extenion, maybe it violates some of their terms? not sure.

But i know its legit, and trust it myself its just a hassle to use. Id love some help here on if this is even possible!

Hi Firefox community, I don't want to store any account login data (also not usernames) on the shared PC that I'm using. In settings > passwords there is no entry, and under access data and passwords any options are deactivated. Although passwords are not stored, Firefox shows the user names/account names whenever I click such field. Where can I deactivate that user names/account names are stored and shown? Many Thanks in advance. Best wishes!

Hi, I tried recently to download some files that I had stored online on some cloud storage sites. One of them was over 4 GB in size, and the download would not complete. I tried a couple of times on that file, and every time the download failed just before the 4 GB total appeared in the download notice section. I checked online to see if others were having the same problem, and I found a few who were, but there was no solution posted. Is this a specific feature of Firefox, and is there anyway to increase the file size limit in your browser registry?

There is one particular website which is a necessary site for me. It is "realestate.com.au". To date, this is the only website displaying these quirks, however there could easily be more which I have not yet tripped over. The home page will open, but trying to open anything under it (account, login, search etc.) results in a plain white page with no data. I can operate the site normally on Chrome or Safari so it is clearly something in Firefox settings. I have tried to install a back version (107) to check that the latest uplift didn't introduce any undesirable attributes. I cannot see any settings which may be causing this so any hints or suggestions from the community would be greatly appreciated.

Why am I getting this from Kaspersky? The most recent version is 108.0.2. Detect date ? 01/17/2023 Severity ? High Description

So, migrating after more than 10 years in chrome I'm currently struggling with the function that completes a webpage while you type (it happens in some webpages, not all). For instance, if I start typing "www.itau", firefox doesn't fill with a known webpage (www.itau.cl). This behaviour is different for, say, typing "www.sa", in wich case firefox fills the missing letters to (www.santander.cl).

I've tryed to delete the suggestion "www.itau" from the address bar with shift + delete, but this isn't a webpage suggestion, so it does nothing.

I'm leaving two screenshots to show.

Sorry for any spelling error, english ain't my main language.

When I try to install Firefox on my Steam Deck (Which came with the installer). It doesn't open. It just says "Cound not open appstream://org.mozilla.firefox because it was not found in any available software repositories.

Please report this issue to the packagers of your distribution." It shows it every time I open the installer ever since I got the thing.

Every time I install an extension, FireFox asks me if I want to "allow this extension to run in private windows?" The answer is YES, the answer has always been yes, and it always WILL BE YES, so how do I set it to default on yes?

I also need an extension to block DEVELOPER POP-UP windows from newly installed or updated extensions. I have 4 pop-up blockers installed, but they all seem to bypass it.
