Why isn't there a simple means to remove/prevent searches for the address bar, using config doesn't work.

I've used Firefox for over twenty years, this annoyance will end that and force a move to Brave.

I run Firefox on Fedora Linux (Silverblue). For several releases I've noticed that the reader mode only displays the Close Reader View, Text and Layout, and Theme options and nothing else i.e. no content.

When I run it in troubleshooting mode, it works. I've tried disabling all my extensions, deleting all my extensions,restoring the browser to default settings but nothing makes a difference. I'm always on the latest release (currently 147.0.3). I currently have multiple profiles, but it didn't work even before I rebuilt them. I'm out of ideas.

Any help is appreciated

Environment - OS: Omarchy - File manager: Nautilus (running as --gapplication-service) - Desktop portals: xdg-desktop-portal + xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland (+ gtk fallback) Firefox: latest stable from Arch repositories

Observations Only one Firefox process is running (pgrep -a firefox). Only one Nautilus process is running, but it receives two open requests, resulting in two windows. The issue does not occur in Chromium/Chrome, which opens only one window. Running xdg-open <file> manually opens one Nautilus window.

Portal logs show GTK being chosen as last-resort fallback, but system-wide XDG configuration appears correct.

Question

Is this a known Wayland/portal bug in Firefox? Are there recommended debugging flags or patches to trace the duplicate launch request?

Windows 10 became unavailable, but I have a copy of the drive it was on. I had tried to install Linux Mint as dual boot and couldn't get to Windows any more. Installed Linux Mint 22 on that drive, wiping out everything that was on it. Now I really want to get all of my locally saved items from the copy of the old drive onto TB in LM22. The profile folders are there, I just don't know what to do with them. FYI, all of my other data files were on other hard drives, so only the OS and apps were on the boot drive.

I have got two e-mail by Thunderbird : X@orange => OK but X@kohinos.net NO connection Thunderbird said : connection time exceeded'. What to do?

Linux User So. I recently followed a Mozilla guide, previously posted, and something that I did, or changed, I now have a very annoying "profile" name in the title bar. Further to that, I now have an additional menu option called "Profiles", with --"profile --Add Profile

Manage Profiles

I have never had or seen these items, except when I've moved my profile from an old computer to a new computer, using the console of "firefox -P" command.

It is becoming very annoying as I only have one profile, and I don't want an more.

Question. How to I block the display of 'profile information' ? Thanks

I need to have a telecon from the provider meet.goto.com using Firefox on my PC running Linux Mint mint-001-1.0 147.0.1 (64 bit) but I get an error message browser not supported. What can I do? Thanks

Over the last week I have been experiencing issues that prevent me from using Thunderbird on my computer. It had been working for a few weeks prior, with emails sending without issue. Without any apparent cause, and with the correct credentials set in my account settings, emails are no longer sending. They continue to be received with no issue, and I can move emails into folders etc.., which I immediately see reflected in Webmail. I get the attached error, every time I try to send an email, no matter which address I am trying to contact. I can log in to my account with the same credentials on different software on the same computer, and I have no issues with sending emails from that software, so I can't see how this would be an issue with my computer. I have tried removing the account, and adding it again. The credentials are accepted, but the issue persists. The email also works without any issues via Webmail. I have contacted the hosting company for support, but they have confirmed that this is an issue with Thunderbird. Please can somebody help?

After tinkering with about:config (shouldn't have...) the background of every page that does not specify a body background color turns the color of my theme background color.

Using the firefox color pipette says its white, but it clearly isn't.

The theme i have is dark, making any page that expects the background to be white unreadable (without DevTools -> Body -> background-color: white)

I haven't been able to find the config that fixes it.

(Sorry, there is no calendar topic ... but this is about converting calendar event to email message...)

I just discovered (because I needed it for the first time) the nice and useful "Convert to ... message" feature for calendar events.

The converted event does not, however, include the date and time of the event nor the location, arguably the most important information about a calendar event. The calendar it is located in would also be handy, for those of us maintaining multiple calendars. Currently, it places the event title in the subject line, and the description in the message.

Anyone know if this is configurable? I looked in settings and didn't see anything.

Most useful would be a default template, which users could customize, perhaps per-calendar. All that I can see that is customizable about this is the sending email address, which can be set in the calendar properties.

Another issue is that this feature is not available from the event detail popup. In that case, I would think it would be not only available, but prominent. The event detail view is where I would expect most features relating to an event to be located, yet only the "Edit" button is present.

Thanks! Erik. - daily user and lover of Thunderbird!

Using Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS with Firefox 147.0.3 (64-bit)

Firefox crashes when trying to access any banking website. Can get to the login page, but then firefox crashes and a crash report window comes up with quit or restart option. This has been going on since shortly after upgrading from 22.04 Ubuntu. Started with Firefox 147.0.1 and after upgrading to 147.0.3 did not fix the issue.

Started Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode and that works when going to the bank login page. Using Standard Theme and only extensions Windscribe - Free Proxy and Ad Blocker and DuckDuckGo. Disabled both and same result of crashing om bank log in pages.

I run Windscribe VPN through my separate subscription, but it doesn't matter if it is on or not. Banking websites (Keybank, Kinecta, Capital Group) still crash Firefox

Also crashes when trying to access Excellus BCBS log in page. Most other websites (news, sports, Amazon) are fine.

Searches on your support page yields ) results.

Please advise!!!
