My FF is set up to: - Always ask you where to save files - Open PDF in Firefox

On normal PDF links, FF opens the PDF normally without downloading (or after downloading it silently in a temporary location invisible to me). On "Force Download" links, FF downloads the PDF to the Download folder without asking where to save it. This is for example the case when clicking "Download" on a file in Gmail. If I click "Download" in Gmail on another file type that I have not set to "Open in Firefox", FF does ask me where to save it.

My expectation would be that, if the file cannot be opened in the browser, then FF would revert to the user's chosen behavior of "Always ask you where to save files".

Firefox automatically updated itself to version 126.0 (64-bit) and it was unable to display any web sites.

First I disabled Mozilla VPN but that did not fix my issue. Next, I disabled Microsoft Defender firewall software to no effect.

Finally I updated the shortcut to Firefox on my taskbar to launch the browser. This fixed my issue.

Hopefully, this will save other users from the same pain.

I have two large inconveniences that keeps me from using Firefox exclusively. 1)When entering a search term in Firefox on occasion I need to look up spellings in the search string. When I click off the search dialog box and return back to the dialog box on the search page everything is erased that I had previously added in the search box. This a a big inconvenience for me. Is there a way to change this setting?.

2) i have tried many time to download my bookmarks of Chrome. After following the published procedure nothing is copied to the bookmarks this is a big issue for using Firefox.

Im not a fan of chrome can you help me migrate to Foxfire. This is both on mu desktop win 11 and my apple iPhone 14

Hi There,

I have one webpage (https://www.dcbservice.com/) that when it loads in firefox it changes from color page to grey when loading is complete. I do not have this issue in the firefox on mobile or phone browser or with microsoft edge. Nor is this issue prevalent when I go to other websites using firefox.

I have apparently changed something without realizing what I have done, is there anything I can do to change the setting back?

I recently removed Firefox from my PC with the intention to reinstall it right away via the windows store, for the purpose of getting Firefox updates automatically.

However, I have been trying in the past few days to install the app and am running into the same error as the installation begins.

I deleted any reminiscence of Mozilla folders from my C drive and ran deep cleaning of cache files on my PC and nothing helps. Please help me resolve this issue, I would like to keep using Firefox...

Thanks:)

I want to disable overscroll. For those who don't know: it's the bouncy animation when you use scroll using a two-finger gesture past the beginning or end of a scrollable region.

The bouncing is an animation, and with animations disabled on my system, having this animation is an accessibility issue.

I guess I could split this question in two:

1. Can Mozilla please change Firefox so that it doesn't do this animation when animations are supposed to be disabled? 2. How can I disable this overscroll behaviour manually, separately from other animations?

Mozella listed email support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org, Failed so here it is: OK! I've been using Mozella from your inception over 29 years. Now you and others are forcing me to convert to Firefox and Thunderbird.

Thunderbird is only 50% as good as the SeaMonkey Browser and Email, but usable if I can "cut and past addresses" from in SeaMonkey browser. I have prepared all the Exports and inports from SeaMonkey.

I have installed Firefox and filled in all of its Profile, Account, settings and Email Communications. Firefox gives me NO usable instructions for importing and of the referenced exports!!!! What little Firefox found in Thunderbird are NOT anywhere near COMPLETE!! Several needed items disappeared!

At least SeaMonkey publishes DETAILED instructions for preparing both the Export and Import items.

Firefox has no listing "PREFERENCES" section! Thunderbird has no Composer or Advance sections and details.

Under Firefox/Applications/mailto Indicates: "SeaMonkey (Default). Does this mean I must have SeaMonkey installed as well or can I change that to Thunderbird?

Firefox HELP is no help at all

NOTE: I have been using SeaMonkey by all 5 or 6 names for personal use and 23 years for my Police Department work. NOTE: I have tried to reach Mozella several times by USPS to the address listed in SeaMonkey and addresses in your local Phone Book. All were returned Marked as wrong address and phone as no longer in service.

I would greatly appreciate you sending me detailed directions to finally get things working so I can get both computers running properly and upgraded to Windows 10.

I bought a second laptop. The second laptop keeps insisting on a master password to sync passwords with my first. I have NEVER set up a master password on my first and I am stuck! There is no option to import from the SAME browser. My first laptop keeps downloading a CSV file that my second refuses to acknowledge that it IS a CSV file.

Firefox (on 2nd laptop) asks me if i want to save passwords and autofill, I always say yes BUT ZERO autofill. Back to the paper age. I have had to write down my pass words from my first and write them in every time. I have run every malicious software and sacn can I can find.

Ideas anyone please.

In macOS you can set up a global keyboard shortcut for the Move Window to Right Side of Screen command via System Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts.... In most apps that support the Move Window to... commands, this will simply move the window to the desired side of the screen when the key combo is pressed.

However, in Firefox the key combo will start the animation as normal but the window will then bounce back to its original location. It's only when the command is activated via a keyboard shortcut that it does the bounce back behavior, though; the command works as intended when activated from the Window menu in the menu bar or from Option + green button in the top left of the window.

The key combo I set up was Shift + Option + Command + Right Arrow, but I've also tried a couple of different key combos and they all did the same bounce back behavior. I've tried it on machines with different versions of macOS (Sonoma beta and Ventura) with the same result. The bounce back behavior also effects the Move Window to Left Side of Screen command.
