I-Firefox Community Forum

On using Google search, many times it behaves as if I've done nothing...

Communication between Firefox and their server seems dropped. Press enter/search and... nothing

Or do they* want us to use Chrome?

so i need that "ctrl+shift+o" hotkey for my amd adrenaline. i tried googling on how to turn off/change hotkeys for firefox but i couldnt find anything that helps me find this hotkey setting.

Greetings:

As a loyal firefox user I have had to switch to another browser due to bugs that effect the appearance of webpages (background for text shows when it should be transparent). I also have had repeated problems with logging onto sites using Fire Fox 130.0.1. Citizens Bank log in would not work. The first issue is longstanding (see rwu.edu for sample).

Mac PowerBook Pro 16" 2023 (MacOS 14.6.1) & iMac '24 M1 2021 (MacOS 14.6.1)

When I go to History and then Clear Recent History with History and Temporary File checked and the hit Clear nothing happens.

I found that I can delete the histories one by one with the Delete key.

'since the update from Aug 20 to 129.02 cannot open lobstr.co on firefox (after 8 captchas get error). Have no problem opening lobstr on Windows or Google. So this has to do with your last update. What do you suggest?

In my attempt to better organize my BOOKMARKS, having regained access following a PC compromise, I now no longer have the BOOKMARKS I so much would like to organize as I want. How can I now again gain access to and improve upon a 5 day old set of BOOKMARKS?

Please provide STEP by STEP instructions to regain access to the now 5 day old set of BOOKMARKS and any helpful info related to this task.

Firefox updated from 131 to 132 and deleted all bookmarks, history and emptied the bookmarkbackups folder. It displays a message that a Firefox file is open by another application and that some security software can cause this problem. According to Task Manager there are no other applications running, nor is security software running. (I turned off Windows Defender and rebooted.) The problem persists. If I can't recover the 80 or so complex bookmarks, I'll have to try MS Edge browser. I'm sure that months of history is not recoverable and is lost forever.

Was this software quality tested prior to distribution? If so, it wasn't very thorough.

Why does Firefox delete files and folders during an update? It would be better to make a backup copies prior to unleashing a destructive update on unsuspecting users.

Before you ask, no I don't create full backups because a) my laptop is used 12 x 7 weekly, b) a 4TB SSD full backup takes days, not hours depending on the destination and c) a 4TB SSD differential backup takes more than a day. I've tried both and they are not practical.

Since today's update, the "box" with the tab name that appears when the cursor hovers over the tab scrolls down from it. Can this animation be turned off? It's very distracting for me.

Firefox was working all day. Then when I went back to it later in the day, it would not start saying that it couldn't find a dll.

The instructions I found onsite, using another browser was to uninstall Firefox and do a clean install. They instructions said that I would not lose my bookmarks.

I faithfully followed the instructions and uninstalled the application, it had problems doing that as it kept coming up that it could not find a file. However, it did complete.

I then reinstalled Firefox.

I have no bookmarks to anythings. No banking bookmarks, no entertainment bookmarks... no nothings.

It will take me months to recover if I can even find those sites again....

I'm really annoyed with Mozilla and am now seriously considering a new primary browser. In all my years on a computer I have never had this happen before.

Now if you know a way that I can recover all my bookmarks, I will reconsider.

how do i unfuck the corners of my browser rounded corners fucking suck ? i fucking hate rounded corner so sorry for using fuck but thats how much i fucking hate this shit ! it annoys the fuck out of me and you will see it gets worse the longer i have to fucking put up with this fucking shit !

hello. i have a problem with times displayed by firefox on my linux box. for some reason firefox seems to think that i'm in or near reykjavik in iceland, and i can't find out why.

the following ONLY applies to firefox on my linux box, but not to other browsers on the same machine or to firefox on android: - when i connect to my home assistant server and go into my personal settings, under time zone it offers me to options: server time zone (europe/london) which is correct or "local" time zone (atlantic/reykjavik) which is WRONG. i'm in the london timezone, so why does firefox think i'm in iceland? - in youtube, firefox tells me that live streams and premieres start an hour earlier than they actually do. like today there is a live stream that starts at 12:35 but firefox tells me it starts at 11:35. no bueno! so why does firefox do this? what setting got screwed up, and how can i fix it?

like i said above, only firefox on my linux box does this, in other browsers and on other platforms it does not happen. that tells me it is a firefox issue.

I have in stall Ubunku on my acer and it cbold textame with firefox and i try to set up aol and aolmail on the system. when i install aol and try to open my mail is said is did suppor mail. is there a way to install aol and the mail work?
