Hi,

When I try to access the website www.delhaize.be with both firefox for Win10 and for Li nux I get a different result. In both cases I tried in SafeMode all Extension off

With Win10 I am able to click on the language selection (French) and go on dealing with the cookies choice and continue shopping. With FF for Linux, although I click on the language button it sticks there and it is not possible to go on.

Any idea on how to troubleshoot ?

Cheers

Hello, after updating to FF108.0.1, most of the items in my more tools menu now have a new options button on their right.

Is it possible to remove these button so that only the items themselves are listed? As used to be the case in FF107 and earlier.

For keyboard users these new buttons can double the number of arrow / tab presses needed to navigate through the more tools menu. For example, you used to be able to get to the fifth item by pressing the down arrow four times, whereas now you might need up to eight presses to get there, as you will have to get past any new buttons as well.

They are also seemingly unnecessary as they appear to show the same menu as the item itself's context menu. So as a keyboard user I would rather revert back to the old options button-free menu and save on the arrow presses.

Thanks.

Hello, I'm teaching German as a foreign language - both f2f and online via Zoom. Up until recently I could call up the websites I would need for the online training, turn off the computer to save power and when I started it again the next day, all the tabs from the previous session would automatically reappear when I started Firefox. But now I cannot click the option "Open previous windows and tabs". I really don't want to completely delete this program and start from scrap because I'm scared I might lose all the bookmarks I collected for my job over the years. So could you please help me fix this problem without having to resort to drastic measures? Thank you so very much, kind regards, Silke Eckelmann

Hello all,

I'm running Version 108.0.1 on a mid 2015 Macbook Pro MacOS 12.6.2 Today I went to do a translation using the "to google translate" add-on and noticed it was missing from its place in the context menu. I go to "get more add-ons and re-installed it.

So why was it uninstalled without my consent? What can I do to stop this happening again?

I'm trying to import my login data from chrome over to firefox as I'm switching browsers, but whenever I try to, it says that it has succesfully transported the files even though it hasn't. My bookmarks transfer over just fine, but my passwords don't. I have tried making a new profile and deleting the old one, going to about:config and changing signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled to true, but it still didn't work. I also tried deleting the files in firefox that store the passwords and trying again, but still nothing. I feel like I'm out of options, can anybody help here? And yes, chrome is closed

I'm in the process of setting up a macbook pro running macos Ventura 13.1.

I downloaded and installed firefox version 108.0.1 for macos. When I click on Firefox->settings, no window is displayed. I noticed that an entry for a settings window is added to the list of windows under the Window meu. But when I click on that entry a tick appears alongside the entry but the window itself doesn't display.

If I close all other windows, then exit firefox, then restart firefox, no windows are displayed. The single entry for settings is still in the list of windows under the Window menu and has a tick next to it, but the window won't display.

I've tried rebooting the machine and downloading/re-installing the firefox app, but that makes no difference - whatever I try, I cannot get the settings window to display.

What am I missing?

Normally, when I select "Remember me" the email address should be remembered and auto filled. On this machine it does not work.

Please note that I do not want to have login saved ( i.e. User Name and Password). Saving passwords works properly.

Every day when I go to work with my laptop which has Fedora 36 installed, I open up Firefox in order to fill the "IT Checklist" where I need to visit a couple of local intranet websites in order to fill upbound threshold and inbound threshold.

I see weird Firefox behavior when it comes to, "Firefox remembering past logins". Let's say, I went to a website that has a URL like 20.200.30.200, and a password 1234.

Every time I try to log in to this website, Firefox asks if I want to update my password !! Something which I don't understand. Neither I am changing the password, nor I have written a different password to update with.

Every time Firefox try to update the password of this website with a random long string of character, which is out of my mind. I have to be careful each time and press "Don't Update" option.

On a normal website (let's say Facebook.com) there is no such problem. But when it comes to a local website, Firefox behaves very differently.

There is another website called 20.0.20.1. Its username is root and the password is 4321. But when I try to login in, only the password section is auto-filled, the username section needs to manually be written. Even though about:logins see both domains saving their respective username and password, when it comes to serving users, it sucks misbehave a lot.

Clearly, there is a fundamental problem in Firefox when it comes to handling how logins are saved and served to the user.

I really hope that Firefox 109 fixes this issue and handles the local website properly.

Hi, I tried recently to download some files that I had stored online on some cloud storage sites. One of them was over 4 GB in size, and the download would not complete. I tried a couple of times on that file, and every time the download failed just before the 4 GB total appeared in the download notice section. I checked online to see if others were having the same problem, and I found a few who were, but there was no solution posted. Is this a specific feature of Firefox, and is there anyway to increase the file size limit in your browser registry?

There is an MSN ribbon across the top of most webpages. My home page is the weather channel and it's correct but this ribbon appeared recently and I can't get rid of it. I checked add-on's and extensions but don't see anything there. To my knowledge, I did nothing to cause it to appear. If I close them, they just appear again the next time I open Firefox. How do I make this go away?

The ribbon contains a Microsoft search bar (DuckDuckGo is my default), and other icons like sign-in, settings, etc. This ribbon takes up valuable viewing space -- about an inch high. Amazingly, this ribbon disappears on the Mozilla support website but is there for everything else.

Appreciate your help please.

Essentially, Firefox (desktop and android) at random times fail to fully load google websites. For instance if I search in the toolbar (google is the default) it won't complete the search, it will just think a bit then revert to a 'new tab' page as if the search never existed (bing.com works fine). Or if I go to my gmail account, it'll slowly load the envelope loading screen but will never complete. This is an intermittent issue throughout the day/night where suddenly I just can't load gmail or google search for 20 or so minutes.

I am able to get to google photos and calendar, etc. but not gmail or google search.

I am able to load those in other browsers such as Edge. I have attempted to clear cache and history and turned off all of my extensions. I've also re-installed Firefox.

The closest thing I have to a solution is that it has something to do with my home internet (wifi not hardwired) and/or region (Australia). For example, when the sites don't load I've tested turning on a VPN for the US, which then allows the sites to load just fine.

Is this some sort of DNS issue or something that I can change in the router or on my desktop? It's very curious that it's only those two sites that don't work (gmail and google search).
