I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

After I restarted my computer today (08/12/2021) I noticed that Firefox was not loading websites properly. They're still functioning, but the backgrounds aren't loading in right and that makes navigating them a little tedious (e.g: floating my mouse around where I think navigational buttons are until the hovertext pops up because the lack of backgrounds are hiding the buttons). It looks kind of what I'd imagine the outline of a website would before the background and images loaded in. I've tried disabling/resetting Firefox add-ons/extensions, refreshing Firefox, restarting Firefox, uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, I've even restarted my computer a couple times, but nothing seems to help. I've also tried seeing if it was a problem on the websites' end, but I've opened them on safari and it has no problem loading any of them. Has someone else experienced something like this?

A 2nd shortcut version to my credit card website has appeared spontaneously when I open Firefox. I have not clicked it, and I am unable to delete it. In the attached pic, the problem icon is titled "secure01a.chase. How did it get there and how can I remove it?

HELLO,

  I HAVE FACING AN ISSUE THAT IS VERY BIG ISSUE FOR ME.

THAT IS I HAD LOGGED INTO MY GOOGLE ACCOUNT AND I HAS CLOSED FIREFOX AND WHEN I AM OPENED FIREFOX ANYMORE ACCOUNT ON FIREFOX ALL ACCOUNTS ARE AUTOMATICALLY LOGGED OUT. ISSUE IS I WANT TO LOGIN TO MY GOOGLE ACCOUNT EVERY TIME WHEN I AM CLOSING AND OPENING FIREFOX. I LIKE FIREFOX VERY MUCH THAN OTHER BROWSER BUT THIS MADE CHOOSING OTHER BROWSER(Chrome). WHAT CAN I DO ?.

Every background on every webpage is white. I have tried: - Safe Mode - Refreshing Firefox - Restarting my Macbook - Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox

None of these work and the issue isn't on any other app Even webpages which are set on dark background by default (say, Netflix, I'll add an example) are ovverriden with white. Several UI elements look broken now.

Hi there, I am coming back to Firefox after about 10 years. I would really like to customise how TABS work because I find the default behaviour disorientating.

Can you help me with the following? 1) I would like the tab bar to ALWAYS be shown, even if there is only one tab. 2) I would like the (x) to close tabs to always be shown, not just when you hover over them with the mouse. I find this confusing because I don't know where the close button is until i mouse over the tab; since the size of the tabs is always different & the border between tabs is hard to see. or if there was some way to keep tabs to a standard width that would be welcome too.

Are these things possible?

On some sites (e.g. Nottinghampost.com) left click does not open links/ pages. It shows that ti is a link (hand mouse pointer) but will only open with centre click in a new tab. I see that this is a problem that others have had in the past.

I have run Firefox in troubleshooting/ safe mode and problem still happens, so not an extension/ theme issue. I have rebooted the computer and I also always clear cookies/browsing history etc when I exit Firefox, that has not helped. The page links work properly in Chrome. I have also done a virus scan (Panda AV)

I am using current Firefox 91 on Win 10 Pro 64, recently updated but I believe the Firefox issue existed before update.

The issue has existed all this week and possibly longer.

Hi

I'm working with Firefox 91.0 (64bit) and Windows 10. The newest update has changed something, that I need to change back:

When I klick on "bookmarks" (Lesezeichen), the space between the bookmarks is much bigger than before, nearly double. Same thing, when I rightclick on an image etc. for download: much bigger space between the lines for choosing.

I have heard there is a way to correct that in about:config, but I don't know what to do there and I also don't dare to change anything there without knowing exactly what to do.

Can you help me? Thanks a lot

I have a VPN (Kaspersky) and Youtube (video only) doesn't work when using this VPN app. I think this problem is in Mozilla Firefox, as it works normally on Google Chrome.

After upgrade to FF 91.0 (and install of Pocket), ALL my views have changed! Loads of white space. NYT and other websites now have BLUE text instead of black. What did I do wrong? I have not changed any settings. THANK YOU! Don

Is there a way to return to the more slimmed-down tabs and menus design of before? Because the latest update has all my menus double-spaced, and they're so bloated now that it's really hard to find anything with half the information spread out to take double the space.

To fix this, I have tried other users' suggestions of disabling proton, which had worked previously but no longer seems to have any effect as of the latest update. I have also tried the "compact menus" workaround, but that doesn't affect the double-spacing within the drop-down menus themselves.

Now, when I click on a checkbox it may darken a very little but it is not checked or filled in.I see this was asked a year ago with no apparent answer. Here it is again in version 91.0.

How do I tell Firefox their new menu labels suck like the following? Dear Firefox, USE INDUSTRY STANDARD MENU COMMANDS LIKE: DELETE BOOKMARK NEW FOLDER . When I'm looking for these options, the words "Remove" and "Add" are not recognizable! PLEASE RESTORE the ORIGINAL MENU TERMS!

Firefox did an automatic update install, and now all windows are drastically affected. For example, my Google calendar, I can't differentiate the colors of each of the calendar. It's as if all the colors have been deleted. All lines are bold. All text has a white box behind the type. I can't figure out how to change it back. And now there's a folder on my desktop called Old Firefox Data. I appreciate the help, this has been my go-to browser forever but it's unusable at the moment.

All of the colors are gone from webpages in Firefox--I've attached two images of Outlook: One, largely in black-and-white, was taken on Firefox, and is how Firefox has looked for two days now; the other, the one that is colored properly, was taken on Google Chrome, and is how Outlook usually appears. Unread messages aren't showing up tinted blue on Firefox, either, but the words are showing up bolded, like they usually would.

All websites look like this. On websites that have an image background (i.e., Netflix), the image appears, but the links (Log In, Forgot Password, etc.) are all in white boxes. Also, some things just aren't showing up--for instance, at the bottom of this page, there's a box that says "Email me when someone answers this thread," and I can't see if I've checked it or not--the checkmark isn't showing up. The issue there isn't that I'm not clicking it--earlier, I uploaded a video to YouTube, and where it offers the options "Yes, this video is made for children," and "No, this video is not made for children," the checkmark didn't show up, but YouTube allowed me to post the video anyway, indicating that I had, in fact, checked the box.

I've tried restarting Firefox in Troubleshooting Mode, I've turned off all ad blockers and extensions, I've changed the theme, I've restarted Firefox, I've restarted my computer, and I've re-installed Firefox, and nothing is fixing the issue. The eye strain is so bad I can't use Firefox; I've been using Chrome.

I have two Mac computers and have used Firefox for the last 20 years on them. With the 91 update, things look the same on my iMac Mojave but my Macbook Pro using High Sierra looks totally different and "blank."

In this first photo, this is what it used to look like and in the second photo, this is what it looks like now on my Macbook Pro. All the websites I go to are now blank looking as if they are missing parts. The weather channel is the same. It is very blank and bleak. How can I get back to the way it looked before the update? (I had version 90 before) Thank you, Martha

Please help! I'm long time Firefox user...love it. I just updated firefox and it seems all my webpages are basic. no color in my google calendar...all other webpages look horrible. I tried everything..can't fix it. Help! See screen shot...

I have used Firefox for the past 20 years on my Mac Computers and never had a problem until the 91 update from yesterday. I was using version 90 on both computers before. My iMac using system 10.14.2 has no problem with version 91 but my MacBook pro using 10.13.6 is having a major problem. All the pages look totally different than what they used to - like it’s missing color, clear format and it looks blankish. I will post two photos here - the first one is what my email page used to look like and the second one shows what it looks like now. Any and all pages I go to now using Firefox 91 shows the same. Even the weather page lacks color and no more videos in the middle of the page. It is bleak and blank looking. It’s awful.

What can I do to get back how my firefox used to look before downloading version 91 onto my MacBook pro?

Thank you, Martha

When I upgraded to v91, the bookmarks menu disappeared. There is a blank row where it used to be. If I show only on new tab, the blank row appears on a new tab. My default is to show always.

The bookmarks menu contains all of the stuff it did before and can be accessed via the main Bookmarks command. But it's missing from the row under the main command row containing URL address field, home, etc.

I can't drag anything new to the blank row from the address field.

How do I make the bookmarks menu reappear?

With the upgrade to v.91.0 the following message appears on the web page for Outlook on the Web:

Add "outlook.live.com" as an application for mailto links

What are mailto links? Why would I want them? How can I disable seeing this message?
