I-Firefox Community Forum

Thank you in advance. I have a question about the "Screen zoom ratio" that appears in the Firefox address bar. I don't know how to hide it. The address bar is set to 105%, which I find to be the best zoom ratio, so I keep it set to that. I know you're busy, but I would really appreciate it if you could let me know. Thank you very much.

When I go to google.com/maps, I immediately see a map drawing of my location - then as the site *finishes* loading, the display area CLEARS, leaving the menu and various "hover" items from the site.

Just...no "roads". 🤣 Just a big vanilla background image.

Google maps works in another browser - the issue is just in Firefox.

Currently on Win 10, running under Parallels on a MacBook Pro. (Maps works great under the Mac OS as well!)

Thanks,

I have been unable to log into my email provider from their home page https://mailbox.org/en/ using Firefox. There is a progressive web app that "goes with" Firefox (if that is the right term) and that does not seem to work either. I get blank screens. I have succeeded in logging into mailbox.org in Microsoft Edge and in Brave. Can you please give me any clues as to what settings or whatever I need to configure in Firefox to be able to log into mailbox.org ?

Hallo Forum! Ich kann mich mit Firefox 147.0 (64-Bit) nicht bei https://auth.openai.com anmelden. Mit diesem Link kommt nur eine leere Seite. Mit https://chatgpt.com/ kommt der anmelde Buton aber der ist ohne Funktion. Ich habe chatgpt schon zu den Ausnahmen im Kaspersky hinzugefügt ohne Erfolg. Im privaten Fenster im Firefox auch kein Erfolg. Einzig im Edge funktionert alles. Hoffentlich habe ich mein Problem gut beschrieben und Ihr könnt mir bitte helfen? Grüße Telly

Hello, I do not know if others have this problem, but when I try to access an Microsoft email account, using Firefox, it loads and then immediately logs me out. When I use a Firefox Private Window, this not occur. What might be causing this?

This setting, "Always ask you where to save files," is definitely broken.

In a related article, they provided this solution: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1534384 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1534384]

Proposed solution: "I believe you also need to go into Tools -> Settings -> General and set the Action for the types of downloads (Applications) to Always Ask for those types you want it to."

But this workaround should not be needed. "Always ask" means always ask. As in always. No other additional steps should be needed.

Can you folks please open a bug to get this fixed? This used to work just fine in (much) older versions of Firefox and Netscape. "Always ask" is supposed to mean always ask. Like, always.

Per [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/control-personal-device-local-networ...] I was looking for Settings > Permissions > "Local network devices" but the option was not present.

Looking at about:config network.lna.blocking I found it set to "false" by default. Only after I changed this to "true" did the UI shows the "Local network devices" configuration option.

Why is this disabled by default? Isn't this a security risk? It seems like users should be notified by default and have the option to block these requests.

When I logged in this morning my FireFox screen had changed. The window for searches had disappeared and the "pocket" selections were all about India and its events. None of the previous options were there. What happened and how do I get back to where things were?

Since upgrading to 147 last night, ChatGPT does not work and there are issues with other websites (Amazon side bar). Numerous people reported it on reddit. Any suggestions for a fix?

I've tried messing with hardware acceleration, resetting the zoom to 100, it seems when i get the zoom as low as possible it tries to fall back into place, i can't find any fix on this, i like this browser but i cant watch anything like this

I need my gmail account but I cannot sign into it, it wants me to start a new one, but that will not do at all. I will wait for a week to see if you can rectify this problem.

I have had so much trouble w/ FireFox VPN. At this point I'm convinced Google is paying the CEO and crash Mozilla straight into the ground. I paid for annual sub, then like something changed (they couldn't honor one of the services (email relay maybe?)) and then I had VPN for a bit and then all of a sudden it got cancelled. Now I have it turned on after they took a while to get back to me about asking why it was turned off (I guess at least they got back to me eventually), but when I go to check my account info about when my renewal is becuase I'm highly thinking about going over to DuckDuckGo and WaterFox, I click on "Paid subscriptions" options and get a refresh of the page w/ a "failed to load page, contact support" every single time. Then when I follow link to "contact support" I get a community forum option, It's giving BROKE!! I really have loved FireFox for so long but I'm thinking this might be the end. I even tried working for Mozilla, but decided not to due to the Five stage interview process, which clearly is not working out for them. Were they really able to screen the best of the best developers with that type of interview process? I digress...

This happens occasionally for many months. It is still happening on v147.0.1. I start the computer, open Firefox, and the browser loads previously viewed pages, including my Gmail account. The Gmail page has me already logged in, and I DID NOT provide my password! This has to be a big security risk. If some one were to use my computer, or it was stolen, they would have complete access to my Gmail and all Google properties! OS - Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) Kernel v6.1.0-42-amd64 Firefox v147.0.1 (and MANY previous versions)

Either removing certain ones I don't care about or getting ones back I may have already taken out?

I don't see either of those functions any more but I swear there was a way to do it just a month ago.
