I-Firefox Community Forum

It certainly appears they have, with the left and right padding growing wider. In fact, they both look about twice the size of the top and bottom padding, whereas before I remember them as being about equal. The change was immediately apparent with my home page!

Any particular reason for this?

So i reinstalled my graphics driver yesterday, and after that when i open a pdf on firefox it only shows blackscreen. it didnt happen on other browsers(chrome, edge)

We apparently lost power sometime during the night. When I turned on the monitor and opened FF, I got the error message that it had crashed. As my subject line says, I lost all my tabs, the pinned ones (probably about 10) as well as the open ones (probably between 10 and 15). I also lost all my history. I can't use the 'Restore Previous Session' because it doesn't give me that option.

I've restarted Firefox and also rebooted my computer...still nothing happens. It's up to date, version 133.0. But I have no history beyond this morning. Is there any way I can recover those tabs or history?

And in my FF Settings, there's a link at the top that says "Your browser is being managed by your organization". I don't have or belong to an organization. When I click on the link it takes me to another page that says it's "Active" and there's a huge list of "Documentation" that apparently involves a lot of code. Can you please explain what all that means? Thanks so much for any help!

I did some googling first and it seems to be an on and off issue mozilla has had with years. Anyway, whenever I play a video (be it youtube, twitter, instagram, even gifs on twitter actually) the video will often mess up and become a chaotic jumbled garbled up mess of green with junk artifacts over the video. The audio will play fine. It's like watching a scrambled TV station from a 90s bootleg cablebox, but green.

This issue doesn't exist in any of my other browsers.

I'd love to continue supporting Firefox instead of Chrome, but this is a persistent issue across the entire internet, so it's kinda obvious I need to stop using Firefox until this is patched. Thanks.

Running Firefox 133.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 desktop

Periodically, Firefox will freeze and send the message "Firefox must be restarted to continue". After restarting, Firefox takes a long time to recover. This morning, it took nearly 5 minutes to recover.

Please be patient with this narrative. I am new to using Firefox Color. The question will be about whether and how one can upload color variations on a theme design concept. I just had an uploaded theme rejected as "duplicate" even though close 25+ color and UI variables carefully changed. I haven't been able to find the right place to ask this question.

About 4-5 months ago after noodling around with the amazing Firefox Color tool, experimenting with changeable UI elements and color controls slowly, I slowly began building a dark theme I'd imagined but never thought I'd be able to build — not knowing anything about current day CSS. After many hours, much trial & error, I eventually landed on the kind of dark theme I'd wanted —with a very different color palette from common blacks and charcoal greys. I learned how to share it with the Marketplace, uploaded it, described it, it was approved. Thumbs up!

Please bear with me, this next part is what I do not understand and need guidance on how to be compliant with add-on marketplace rules. I'm not sure whether I should, or should not, provide links to the themes I am referencing, given my Q turns on color variants of a design scheme.

The past 3 months, having tested my first theme across a wide span of websites, some dark, some light, some wild colors, and also my being a power user of hierarchical bookmark folder dropdowns, I found a number of usability areas where I wanted to improve color UI interactions. This also after testing with my screen at full brightness, and also at night using warm light filtering. Today I set out to make a much better new dark theme, not just improving core usability but really going after a far more pleasing balance with better colors and distinctions to remove any possible distractions from web browsing no matter which site I was on.

Spent 5-6 hours revamping every element color completely, exported my new theme.xpi to the Marketplace, wrote up description, submitted for approval with the title "Dark Subtle Color - 1"; and about 5 hours later it was approved. I named it with #1 because I knew I wanted to also try some different color variations and dub that one as "Dark Subtle Color - 2".

Maybe I messed myself up with a poor naming strategy, but I'm not experienced in the norms & rules here. It is so common in design to arrive at harmony & balance in relationship to dark, medium and light UI values, after careful attention to contrast differentiation, separation, readability in browser default states, hover states, dropdown & popup states, active vs inactive tabs etc. Then one tries new colors for variety, while sticking to the relative color values of that balanced design. I've seen color variations on themes all over the web, from Chrome store to Firefox Add-on Marketplace.

I the time waiting for approval, after analyzing my submitted theme, I decided I wanted to change up the background colors of the Active and Inactive tabs to provide even greater contrast and distinctions, so that when I'm researching and have 20+ tabs open with most of them pushed out of the limited viewport, and I'm skipping between various tabs, when I have to horizontal scroll, my eye can instantly skim and locate my Active Tab ... because it is that bullet-proof different.

Really happy with those new color choices! But one change leads to another, and next thing I am changing and adjusting many more elements. Particularly after I finally dug into and figured out the 15 or so "other" UI color elements listed in the Advanced Colors for which I had previously never understood where the corresponding visual elements were located on-screen.

Yes I began with my submitted "Dark Subtle Color - 1", but I changed all together about 25 color elements -- not like some crazy rainbow world -- many were subtle improvements based on popups, selected URL, bookmark dropdowns, background and text colors, changed the color of icons, changing the opacity of the Bookmark Folder icons and their associated text labels to dial down the amount they popped out in a distracting way. I liked this arrangement very much as well, so per plan I saved the new theme.xpi file and submitted to Marketplace as "Dark Subtle Color - 3". It's a separate theme but to the untrained eye the only standout features would be the new tab-state colors.

So yes I was surprised and taken back when I later get mozilla emails stating my numbered color theme - 3 was rejected, not published: "Our review found that your content violates the following Mozilla policy or policies: - Other, specifically Duplicate: We cannot add your theme to the gallery because we do not permit duplicate copies of existing themes. We appreciate your involvement in the Theme developer community."

My question is: Was my principle error poor NAMING of the last theme? The colors are different! What am I missing about the word "duplicate"? Maybe the rule-set should be really clarified because "different color choices" and "duplicate" are 2 very different things. I spent this time to write this up so that others beside myself can be helped. Rules are always essential, but it seems to me that in pursuit of definitional purity, users are poorly served if color variations on theme arrangments are verboten. Thank you in advance.

I have every about:config and settings option set to recommended to prevent autoplay videos. NONE work with yahoo. The vids will drop to the lower right hand corner but even if I click on the close window X they still pop open again. And again. And again. Is there a solution to this arrogant, self-centered behaviour by yahoo?

Paypal hangs when transferred from vendor site to complete purchase. Relaunching Firefox in troubleshooting mode resolves issue. Also works with Safari. What's wrong, what needs to be changed?

Hi there, Ok for the website Groove3.com for a while now I have not been able to connect thru ESET Password Manager. For years it has been working fine, I have not changed the password nor have I altered anything else. I have check my computer clock and it is set correctly. I have contacted Groove3 and they are telling me that they CANNOT duplicate the problem. So the bottom line is I need help and I use this website a lot. It seems to be a Firefox issue and a Firefox issue alone.

A friendly hello to whomever is kind enough to read this! Your help is greatly appreciated!

The latest update caused an edit I made to my Profile's userChrome.css file to be nullified. Now there's huge bar where the tabs toolbar used to be, and apparently it's not the title bar, as when I activate the title bar in "Customize Toolbar," this huge gets replaced by the actual toolbar.

I've attached my css code below for inspection. It used to work perfectly, but after the last update (133.0) it's no longer working. What can I do to fix this and have it like I had it prior to the latest update (133.0)?

userChrome.css File: `#main-window[tabsintitlebar="true"]:not([extradragspace="true"]) #TabsToolbar > .toolbar-items {

 opacity: 0;
 pointer-events: none;

}

1. main-window:not([tabsintitlebar="true"]) #TabsToolbar {

   visibility: collapse !important;

}

1. main-window[tabsintitlebar="true"]:not([extradragspace="true"]) #TabsToolbar .titlebar-spacer {

       border-inline-end: none;

}

/* Adding empty space for buttons */

1. nav-bar {

margin-right:140px; }

/* 15px for dragging whole window by mouse*/

1. titlebar {

appearance: none !important; height: 15px; }

/* Fix for main menu calling by Alt button */

1. titlebar > #toolbar-menubar {

margin-top: 10px; }

/* Move minimize/restore/close buttons to empty space */

1. TabsToolbar > .titlebar-buttonbox-container {

display: block; position: absolute; top: 17px; right: 1px; }

1. sidebar-box {

 min-width: 250px !important;

}`

How to recover my Notes. Version 133.0 (64-bit) of Firefox got installed just now on my laptop and all my old Notes (very important stuff) just vanished. How to recover them? Please help..

I have noticed over the past year that some shopping sites no longer allow me to complete my purchase (landsend.com, garnethill.com) or login (theguardian.com/us) to name a few. In the past I have called their customer service and completed my purchase by phone or I have had to use the Edge browser. This is an annoying work around and defeats using Firefox as my default browser. I just disabled the HTTPS scanning in my (AVG) antivirus software and was hoping that may resolve the issue but I still cannot log into my accounts on the 2 I just tried. Am I going to have to change my browser use?

I have a need t view courthouse records in AZ. The Cort Website tells be to go to (In Win 10) Settings then Compatibility View settings. hat must be old information as pertaining to win 10, because my win 10 has nothing even hinting a similarity with that. So, since it's about web viewing the next place I looked on Firefox and again nothing like that. Any suggestions?

Suddenly Firefox is downloading my downloads to google drive. Why? I want them in my download directory, but changing the options in Settings/General/Download makes no difference. It is set to ask where a file should go, but does not. It is set to ask whether to open or save a file and it does not!

How can I get google drive out of this and save them to my desktop again?
