Hi--

I recently upgraded from Mojave to Sonoma 14.2, and Firefox 120.0.1.

In Mojave, fn-F12 used to invoke a "Dashboard" with applets like Dictionary and Thesaurus.

With Sonoma, fn-F12 causes the bottom part of Firefox's frontmost window to become a web developer tool, same as ⌥⌘I, instead.

Can I get my Dictionary and Thesaurus back?

Hi, Please advise how to remove, disable, delete, block the new added "Your browser is being managed by your organization." to my Settings page. I'm home user .Also Please know that this is generating "FALSE FINGERPRINT CERTIFICATES" thank you

I can't see the SYNC option in Settings so I...

Use about:config to change identity.fxaccounts.enabled = true I can now see 'Sync' in Settings When I go to "Sign into Sync", after I enter my password, it hangs for 10 seconds, then says Working, then always just hangs there forever. If I login to Mozilla using a different tab, it signs in ok.

I have tried this after successfully changing the password, and after restarting firefox.

I am using the latest Firefox version.

Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

That was a useful article. But I would prefer to (also here) open a new tab behind the ones already open. Could this also be done?

Tried installing Firefox Nightly 123 on an iMac running Monterey 12.7.3. Will not install. Just get the spinning busy cursor and have to force quit. Installs fine in Sonoma.

Hi, I am seeing issues with autoscrolling in 119.0. In Rundeck for example you can "follow" the output of playbooks that are running so you can dynamically see the log as it is written. The autoscrolling in this field has stopped working. When manually scrolling in the field, more messages appear but the autoscrolling is no longer functional. I have also seen it on other places, though I don't have remember good examples to add, so I don't believe it is Rundeck causing the issue--we also haven't updated rundeck recently in our environment, so it shouldn't have changed since before 119.0 was released. Let me know if there is more information I can provide to diagnose the issue.

Greetings Firefox Community

As I long time user and supporter (have donated and even got a shirt to show!) I have never had any issues with my beloved FF. If anything minor had happened, I would always find a quick fix on the community forums.

This one is an odd ball: for a while now Firefox forgets all saved passwords but only after a cold reboot (not a restart or sleep).

It's my elderly mum's laptop, which I manage for her using a remote desktop app. It's a fairly new Asus Vivobook with Win11, fully updated and free from viruses and hacks as we have installed paid versions of both Malwarebytes and HitmanPro.Alert. My Windows desktop runs exactly the same OS and those two security software, and my FF never ever forgets anything! The only difference is that her Windows and FF are set to the Italian language while mine is English.

After trying a "refresh", I exported her passwords and bookmarks and took the drastic step of completely wiping FF and even removing profiles. Reinstalled the latest x64 version and the problem is still happening.

Had a good look at both security software to ensure there was no funny setting to cause that to occur, fact is the laptop also runs Chrome and Edge with all the same saved passwords yet those two pesky browsers never forget anything!

Personally, I'd much prefer for her to continue to use FF rather than the other two, so I am shouting out for HELP, please! Hope someone has seen this and/or knows how to fix it.

Many thanks in advance and Merry Christmas to all! Cheers Paul Perth - Australia

Every time I am trying to search, google is always pinned on my search bar, and I want to get rid of it. How can I remove google? (On the image I marked the issue with a red circle)

Good day. I've used Firefox for decades and love it.

System: Macbook 2012 - OS 10.15.7 Catalina (most current Catalina version) 16G ram, Intel guts Firefox - 121.0 (64bit)

About a month ago it started quiting within a minute of being open. I would open it again, then it would quit within a few seconds. I would try to open it again and it would show the little black dot beside the icon in the dock for a second or two but not open at all.

None of these "crashes" would generate a crash report and there was no error message.

I could start it again in troubleshooting mode (hold shift + option) but it would only last about 20 seconds before closing again. This is repeatable meaning I can keep opening it in troubleshooting mode and it will keep closing. It generates the window "Open in Troubleshooting Mode?" with options of refresh or open. When I open it, it gives the option of new session or restore old session, both options work, then quit.

Things done: most of these have been done multiple times

Turn machine off and on - sometimes opens for a bit sometimes no. Safe mode - as above Open in a different Mac profile - no change. Refreshed Firefox - sometimes opens for a bit sometimes no. Reinstalled Firefox - deleted the app then new app - works for a bit then same Disk Utility checked all volumes Clean install - removed all Firefox bits that I could find using AppCleaner and also searching in Finder - no change Reinstalled most current version of Catalina - Firefox worked for about 2 minutes, then same. Made a new profile, deleted other profiles - worked best for about 15min then back to same.

Other info: Safari works fine. Firefox on my Galaxy phone works fine

Thanks for any suggestions Phil

Hi there

Can not install google translate on my toolbar. When clicking the "puzzle" to access extensions google translate is there but it's greyed out, thus not accessible, when clicking on it there are no options to pin to toolbar as other extensions have that option, clicking on options if shows "manage extension" " remove extension" and " report extension"

When trying to click on links inside PDFs, the url is changed to undefined, producing an error message. For example, a Hostgator article is converted from https://hostgator.com/help/article/how-do-i-change-my-dns-or-name-servers to https://undefined/help/article/how-do-i-change-my-dns-or-name-servers

I have tried clearing the cache, troubleshooting, and get the same result in safe mode, and reverting back to Firefox default settings. And I still get the same result. I've attached an image of the error message.

Hi,

Someone is trying to visit our website but keeps getting a 520 error response.

It appears that their user agent is being blocked at some point but I don't know why or where (I have tested the user agent in browser tools and get the same response). Yet, using it to visit other websites works fine, likewise if they test using another user agent they can access the site.

We use Cloudflare but I don't think the issue is their end as we have sites hosted elsewhere which can be accessed through the CDN with the same user agent.

Checking the server logs shows no sign of the visitor's IP address accessing the site.

The user agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0

Just wondering if anyone can suggest how I might be able to narrow down where to find the issue or what I should be looking for? 33 seems like quite an old version, could it be the server doesn't accept visits from an older version?

Many thanks

After an update of ubuntu 22 on my computer, Firefox does not render properly (see the screenshot of my desktop). I have tried to reinstall it but it continues to happen. All the other programs works fine, it is only firefox.

My system is: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS Processor: AMD Rysen 5 3600 6 core procesor x 12 Graphics: AMD Radeon rx 5500 tx

Thanks.

For over a week now I am receiving a popup from 'The Spruce' with the popup header being Mozilla Firefox (see Spruce.jpg). The popup has a facility to disable notifications from www.thespruce.com and I have selected this many times yet the popups keep coming several times a day. (see Spruce2.jpg). I have also visited the Spruce website and there is no unsubscribe link. I didn't subscribe in the first place and had never heard of The Spruce before this. Why is Firefox facilitating this spam that won't be disabled?

Hey there, so on this page there is a video element inside of a div. Both the div and video have a border-radius styled in css. This renders as expected on most browsers, but seems to have a potential issue on Firefox on Widows 10 where the video does not have the border-radius and shows up with square edges. Any thoughts on this? If you try other browsers or Firefox on anything besides Windows 10, it is round like expected.

Hello, i've updated the Firefox browser to version 120 and since then polish texts in browser are broken. How can i fix it or restore to previous working browser version?

I have tried to disable hardware acceleration, refresh firefox, reinstall, and nothing works. It hangs every single time when searching on google or connecting to websites. This really sucks because I have used firefox since the beginning and don't want to have to stop now..
