I-Firefox Community Forum

Hi, on certain websites, like Steam Store and IMDB (for video game or movie/tv trailers), when I play a video but then switch tabs or minimize etc. the video immediately pauses itself, on other websites however like YouTube for example, this isn't the case and the video continues to play in the background, which is how I want it to behave for the websites mentioned above as well.

So I just wanted to ask if this is a setting imposed by the website itself, like Steam, or if it comes from the browser or maybe video player software or windows side etc. and I can change it by changing some settings or something, or is this something I can't do anything about and just have to accept as it is by unbypassable design of the website?

Thanks for any help or info.

Bonsoir, Depuis quelques temps Firefox bug quand je suis sur canal plus ce que je n ai pas avec google Pouvez vous me dire pourquoi ou réparer le problème Merci Chantal BREDEL

Specifically, it's a resume. I downloaded a resume template from a website a long time ago, and I have modified it dozens of times as I submitted it to different jobs. The file's current name is simply my name. However, for some reason, when I open any of the versions of this file in firefox, the title of the tab is that of the original template-cashier. This doesn't happen when I open the file with edge or a regular pdf reader, but it's still pretty annoying. Why is this happening and how do I prevent it?

Chrome seamlessly harmonizes with the PowerToys FancyZones feature in Windows 11. In Chrome, I can drag a tab out of a browser window, and instantly snap it into a FancyZone. I can also quickly arrange multiple separate Chrome windows into FancyZones without issue.

Firefox's interaction with FancyZones is not good. When I drag a tab out of a window, it doesn't allow me to snap it into a FancyZone. I first need to release left click, allowing the tab's new window to appear, then I can snap that window into a FancyZone.

The biggest occurs when I have multiple Firefox windows open and snap one of them into a FancyZone. Often, one of the open Firefox windows will spontaneously shrink itself in size. When I try to manually resize the window back to normal, it shrinks further and further, until it is an invisible sliver. The only solution when this occurs is to fully restart Firefox.

It seems strange that Firefox has such poor compatibility with FancyZones, which is growing in popularity along with other productivity tools in PowerToys. Wondering if anyone else has experienced these issues, if there is any workaround, or if there is a fix being worked on.

Everytime I open firefox i have to enable Picture-in-picture in settings, because it somehow gets dissabled everytime i close out of firefox, its annoying and I dont how to fix it, and cant find anyone else having this same problem.

I collect images ... when I download an image there is a series of numbers below the image ... over the years I have noticed the numerals have vastly increased in quantity ... there are now as many as 37 numbers under each picture I download ... it is very tedious to reduce or erase these numbers for every image downloaded ... obviously there is some sort of "counter" built into the browser ... Is there any way to reset or eliminate this counter ? ... Thanks ...

I have my ubuntu user firefox folder with all files from logins.json to sqllite db files

issue is logins.json has userid and passwords encrypted (json has encryption as Type 1) whereas when try to import it to windows Firefox it fails as it expects CSV to have plain text passwords not encrypted ones

How do I go about syncing my Windows Firefox such that I can get userid/paswords from ubuntu backed up files

Any help is much appreciated.

In advance Happy Holidays

Good morning.

Long time regular user here. Why have the often used minimize, maximize and close options in the upper right hand corner of the Firefox for Linux been removed? I have seen numerous posts in online chat sessions complaining about the same problem? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated and I hope this issue is resolved quickly.

Thanks; D. drh27410@gmail.com 12/21/2024

Firefox doesn't load a specific website: Amazon.fr

Other pages from Amazon (Amazon.com, Amazon.de .be . nl) have no problems. I can only access this page by cold starting my Mac. Once and only once! After that, the problem is there...

Also remove all data (settings / private / cookies / all data) doesn't solve the problem.

Info: Mac: Mac Sequoia Version 15.1.1 (24B91) Firefox: 133.0.3 (aarch64)

With other browsers (Chrome, Safari) there isn't any problem. In older versions of Firefox, there wasn't any problem.

Yesterday when I tried to open my gmail in Firefox I got this page coming up Clear cache & cookies

When you use a browser, like Chrome, it saves some information from websites in its cache and cookies. Clearing them fixes certain problems, like loading or formatting issues on sites. Computer AndroidiPhone & iPad In Chrome

   On your computer, open Chrome.
   At the top right, click More More and then Delete browsing data.
   Choose a time range, like Last hour or All time.
   Select the types of information you want to remove.
   Click Delete data.
       If you delete cookies while signed in to Chrome, you won't be signed out of your Google Account.

I'm concerned about deleting data, it's always worked until yesterday.

Should I follow these instructions?

I have a huge number of sites with logins that were remembered but none are now remembered and if I put in a new on that is not remembered and no prompt to remember is appearing. I have not reset anything. I still have a list of passwords and logins but none of those are working as being correct. Help please I need to be able to resolve this asap as there are important sites I cannot access.

I have tried reinstalling Ffox ad nauseum but the zoom settings will not 'stick' and don't survive a quit and restart. In an effort to sort this I have installed Firefox 128.5.2esr but now the zoom setting does not work at all.

Tried everyting, including deleting all ref to Ffox and reinstalling but nothing works.

Note that I install in the admin account and run as user. This worked fine with MacOS Ventrura but fails with Sequoia. If I install from the user account with admin privileges zoom does work but fails on a machine restart.

Safari, Vivaldi etc all work as expected. It's only Ffox that has the problem. Shame as I've used it for years. If I can't solve this I shall have to go over to Vivaldi and give Chromium another shot in the arm.

Any help appreciated.

I have tons of manga I keep up with and I separate them by category but this creates a lot of folders with a lot of entries. I want the bookmark panel to be a side panel so I can drag and drop updated bookmarks as well as having all entries in a folder be visible when browsing bookmarks.

That last part is the most important so I can quickly find specific things while scrolling
