I-Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

I recently discovered that macOS Screen Time is reporting my Firefox usage under the name “Firefox: Private, Safe Browser.” and just the name "Firefox". My family is suspecting that I am using private model for the screen time of "Firefox". However, I have never used Private Browsing mode.

This mislabeling is causing misunderstandings at home, as it appears I’m hiding something, which I am not. Could this be a misclassification by macOS, or is there something in Firefox’s app packaging that triggers this name?

I would greatly appreciate any clarification or assistance. Thank you.

Best,

Edit:

I tested on my Mac again today. Even though I am using Firefox Private Mode, I only have one screen time usage, just called "Firefox: Private, Safe Browser".

I would like to be able to open the bookmarks menu to a specific folder programmatically from an html page. This could be something similar to the <a> tag with the html="url" being replaced by an appropriate command that opens the bookmarks menu instead of being a link to a web page. The command would include a path something like: "Other Bookmarks"->"System"->"Arduino"->"ARM" and the menu would actually drop down showing the path and the contents of the last folder listed. Everyone wants that, right?

Despite turning all the ones I could find off, YouTube keeps preventing me from playing videos in my main browser saying I can't watch with adblockers on. So I've been opening all these tabs in private browsers. Wednesday night into Thursday morning I was playing a song I'd found but when the computer restarted it didn't reopen that page. Is there a way to find a private browser window I had open?

The sidebar that shows the browsing history is a very convenient tool. However, now, after closing the window, the option is reset to the bookmarks bar. You have to select the browsing history again, which is very inconvenient. Is there any way to fix this?

I have a folder called Old Firefox Data on the my desktop on a Mac. When I delete it I cannot empty from the Recycle Bin. If I try it just comes back. How can I remove? I have uninstalled Firefox and restarted and it still persists.

Hi, I like chatgpt OpenAI interface. However, it does not have the ability to create images with Arabic text and videos. Can you help me locate an app? P.S. See as an example this one.

Hello good people, I've been using the wonderful Review Checker tool for some time and love it! When I went to shop on Amazon today, it was not longer there. There was no price tag icon in the address bar of the item I was looking at, and so I was unable to turn it back on. So sad :( I would very much appreciate it if you could help me. Thank you for all your good work, Bill
