I-Firefox Community Forum

I opened up my pc and launched firefox, and then firefox told me that its 20 years and that I can get a special edition wallpaper, I followed the instructions: New tab -> Settings, but I can't find the special edition wallpaper in the settings. Where can I find it?

Yes I typed about:config and set everything containing "translate" to false. Yes I changed browser settings, yes I deleted translation dictionaries AND THIS PIECE OF TURD STILL SCREWS WITH ME

Am I the only one here? What will it forking take to disable that crap?! Disabling the moron of coder who made it?? HELP ME GOD

YouTube keeps putting up the add block detection when I try to play a video. Apparently they can detect Add block Plus. Kubuntu 24.04 Firefox version 130.0 [64-bit] Mozilla Firefox Snap for Ubuntu Canonical-002-10. Add block Plus version sorry I can't find that information.

I can login to B of A and do everything except reach the make payment page on my PC desktop. I've cleared cache and cookies per B of A instructions but it doesn't help. I can get there on my iPad's Firefox, however. They said to contact you.

In certain website I go to, I can no longer access them with Firefox but Chrome works. When opening the page apop up opens to accept cookies. However on Firefox it grey's out the whole screen and I cannot select the cookie options. So I cannot go any further on the website.

I no longer see search suggestions when I start typing in the search bar. I still have "show search suggestions" checked in Settings, Search.

I should also ask: I don't remember how I enabled the old search bar, to the right of the address bar, mostly because I'm used to it. I don't see a box for it in Settings. What if I wanted to remove it? What if I then wanted it back?

Well, ok, one more. Also in Settings, Search, I see a drop-down list from which to choose my search engine, but no space to add a new one. Where's that? I've seen instructions to navigate to another search engine, but that can't be the way to do it. I normally wouldn't navigate to a search engine's page before searching.

I just got the update and love the sidebar customization. The only caveat is that there is no easy way to close a tab (not counting key shortcuts) without having to open the sidebar and click X that way. When it is a horizontal tab, the X is very upfront and easy to click. I was wondering if there would be any patch that would add a "close tab" button either to the right of the refresh button in the top left, or to the right of the "Open a new tab" button in the top right.

If there is already an easier way to close tabs, then I am all ears; the less clicks the better, and a more simple browser to operate!

I'm experiencing an unusual issue in Firefox: a CSS grid overlay is visible on various websites, while everything displays normally in other browsers (Chrome, Edge, etc.). This grid is not part of the actual website design and does not appear when using other browsers.

I haven’t activated any developer tools or extensions intentionally that would cause this behavior. Could you please help me identify what might be causing this and how to disable it?

I took a look today and I had 237 MB in cookies! This was after clearing the cache of all files. I've only had this (new) machine a couple months.

Short version: Sites have "cookies" from 200kb to as much as 34MB! For many of the sites over 3MB I have no account and have visited them only briefly.

To be clear, I don't care about the space being used. It's trivial. But what the heck is FFox storing and calling it "cookies"? Last I checked, a site was still limited to 4K size cookies and perhaps 50 per domain. So how are we getting to MB+ sized "cookies" per site? Again, the cache was cleared, so what's left aside from trivial cookie files of <4KB?

Can Mozilla take off obscene content on the home page such as the girl sticking her butt out on the Firefox home page pocket tab? This is quite inappropriate--especially for teens and children who might be online! I see this horrific specter every time I open Firefox. I cannot set it as my default as long as Mozilla has this kind of obscene photos on the Firefox home page. Thanks!

When I open Firefox browser it automatically opens 3 tabs at web sites I have chosen . Now I want Firefox browser to automatically open a 4 th website. It was easy to do this several years ago by clicking on the opened website and moving the address to the home button. But this doesn't seem to work now. Has the process changed or have I just forgotten how to do it?

I currently can't stream anything, and this keep getting this message: Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc. will be installed shortly,but it never installs.

I have a macbook air and am currently running macOS Sequoia version 15.0.1.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, removing extensions, clearing cache and data, unchecking and then checking back again the reproduce drm protected content but nothing has worked.
