I-Firefox Community Forum

For quite some time whenever I try to look up an email or name on the Gmail page, (9 black dot array) Googlle Apps/contacts, it's taken me to a broken page with a few email addresses llning the left side of the page. If I use the seach at the top, it just freezes up.

I am able to start an email and type in a few letters of the address and usually it will present some options but the Contact page itself is useless.

Is there a way to reload/write over the contact portion of Gmail LEAVING the contact info intact?

Browser is Firefox.

Thanks. joe

Hi Mozilla Community,

I’ve been a long-time Firefox user and truly appreciate the performance, privacy focus, and open-source spirit of the browser. However, one area where I consistently run into friction is file sharing and transfer workflows, especially when dealing with large files or trying to streamline downloads/uploads directly from the browser.

It would be great to see built-in or add-on integrations that offer:

Smoother file upload experiences

Secure, fast sharing options with expiration settings

Drag-and-drop simplicity for large files

Easy link generation from local files

Until then, I’ve found an alternative that’s working well for me: P999.com.pk . It offers quick, reliable file transfers with minimal hassle. I'd love to see something similar as a Firefox extension or feature—maybe even a partnership?

Looking forward to hearing if others feel the same, or if there are any recommended add-ons that can help streamline file transfers within Firefox.

Thanks in advance!

Some extensions, like Bitwarden or Notes, seem to have added their own shortcut icons between the settings cog and the other functions below the tabs, with seemingly no way to remove them? I already have them in my regular toolbar / extension overflow, which has much more space available, so I don't see the point of why there's duplicate ones in the sidebar taking away tab space?

Using Google Voice became unusable. Firefox too slow. Had been running just fine up till maybe a month ago when I finally gave in and allowed Firefox to update. Not knowing if it was a Windows or other issue I stupidly did a Windows reset and lost all my installed programs (including Firefox). I did a fresh install of Firefox and manually reentered passwords and bookmarks.

Ran fine for a day or two and is now again unusable. Cleared cache and appears to work OK at the moment but still sluggish.

More frequently than I care to admit, I seem to close FF instances which I don't want to close (such as my connection to Whatsapp). I then miss important replies or questions. Of course I can reach out to 'History' and try to find the closed Tab or Window... But that takes time.

I'd suggest adding/removing a 'protection' flag to a tab (eg. on right-clicking), so that, on trying to close the tab, or close the window containing the tab, I get a warning...

I have no problem with previous version of ff. i noticed ask to save password not showing up in this version. usually if i fill in a form, ff will save the information for future use.

i have issue with ff, so i uninstall and reinstall. doesnt work. i add additional information in notepad attachment.

i am end user. nothing technical. only uses ublock, clearurl and audio equaliser. not heavy user. just light browsing facebook, google and regular website.

Running Linux Mint 22 and FF 138.0.3. Normal practice is to leave 2 or 3 FF windows open on shutdown so the same windows and tabs will re-open on future boot-ups when opening FF. In the last several versions of FF as well as of the OS, those tabs appear on boot but display random text within a random tab for a given window. Also, the highlighted icon in the tray does not match the window that has opened. If I click and re-click the tray icons, they eventually display as expected.

Running Linux Mint 22 on Dell desktop. On bootup, no bookmarks and message with link to restore them. Restarting computer sometimes works after multiple tries but often does not, currently on FF 138.0.3 but this problem has come up on several previous versions of Mint as well as FF. Now more frequent. No security or other software apps have been added or changed.

The last time I got the bookmarks to show I used the FF Save Bookmarks function to save them to a stick. That file shows on the stick as a .json file. Mozilla's choice, not mine. Manage Bookmarks in the hamburger menu generates a pop-up "Library" that will not access the .json file.

I made a custom theme for firefox and submitted it to AMO. It's approved, but I have no idea how to actually apply it. I don't see any option to install or use. What am I missing? How do I actually use it?

Hello I need to solve the following problem: My daughter can no longer access her Windows 11 PC -> profile issue. Can I save C:\...\profiles for her Firefox bookmarks, reset Windows, install FF, and copy back the profiles folder. Or import the bookmarks from profiles into the new FF?
