When I go to certain web sites, (Xfinity, Blue Cross Blue Shield), a message pops up saying, "This page is slowing down Fire Fox. To speed up your browser, stop this page". When I go into Safe Mode, I can get to those sites. How can I get rid of this message/problem? Fire Fox has current update as does my Mac.

When I go to Google.com, the cursor is in the Firefox browser's address field. And I have to click in the Google search field to start my search - if I remember to do so. Why can't the cursor just be in the Google search field?

I could search in the address field, but I'd have to highlight/delete the address. So it's easier to just click in the Google search field. But I rather just have the cursor be in the search field automatically. Is there a way to get that done? Or is that asking too much?

I've only just recently had this issue: If I'm not already in full screen mode on my MacBook Air (Ventura 13.3.1), then I can enter and exist YouTube's full screen mode just fine. But if I'm already in full screen mode with the browser, then after going full screen with a YouTube video I can't exit. I can exit the full screen window, but then the video stays in full screen with no menu bar available etc. Instead I have to close Firefox and open again. See the attached image - I can change the size of the window but only the video screen appears. I can still use shortcuts (ctrl+tab) to navigate tabs etc.

When I copy paste stuff, and who knows when, I see a bunch of word suggestions at the top of the right click context menu, with an option to enter them into a dictionary, whatever and wherever that is. I see nothing at all in the settings corresponding to this, and just want to completely disable that BS: It's just garbage in the way of me doing my tasks. How do I disable this, and/or the entire spell checker and dictionary, etc. if necessary? I know how to spell. Don't need it. Thanks.

I want to: - Delete cookies, logins and cache of all not specifically allowed websites when closing the browser - Automatically delete the browser history of anything thats older than 'n' days or entries - Preferably do this without having to use an addon

I have set places.history.expiration.max_pages, however even on a really low value it does not seem to delete any older items from the history.

For deleting cookies and cache I have a problem understanding how the 2 sections in the settings interact (Cookies and Site Data and History) and how I would manage to delete everything except the whitelisted cookies.

Lockwise on My iPhone 13 forgot my login and asked for a password for some reason. As I have turned on 2-step verification it asked for the code from Google Authenticator. However this code was not accepted and I had to use one of my recovery codes. Now I am logged in and would love to disable the 2-step verification, as it does not work, but there is no such option in the app.

Hello

I accidently hit a few keys and afterwards Firefox started to mark the sections yellow and speaks everything I do or the text i click. I just appears on the one website, the one I was as i pressed the keys. I thinks its a feature from Firefox, because the windows voice assistant is deactivated.

In the image you can see the title marked yellow, I clicked it and a female voice speaks it or when i click a section they say "section landmark"

Thanks for helping

I've used the Autofill addresses feature since discovering it a few years ago. It is/was a great feature.

I maintain only one Autofill address. With the exception of having to correct a typo I made, this single address is the only address I've ever put on file.

I do not and have never maintained any credit card info in the Autofill credit card feature.

At some point in the past year (to 2 years (estimate)), the Autofill address has stopped populating my street address, city, state, zip code and phone number. It seems to be brilliant at populating my name and email address on a web form, but that's where the brilliance ends.

If the form has a second email address field to verify the first email address field, the second email address field is not populated. I realize this non-occurrence might be a feature of the the Autofill feature, but there's no way to tell based on the documentation provided.

Could someone PLEASE take a look at the problem?

I'm enrolled in multiple classes at teachable.com and they both use my email, however, the classes are VERY different and I need two separate passwords. Firefox said NO. Is there a way to have two passwords using the same email address? I did try to log in when I signed up for the second course and it did not recognize my email address. The sign in process for the first site is slightly different and goes through the instructor's site, and then through teachable.com. My password for the first class is stored on Firefox under teachable...and I've emailed myself the password to the second class until I can resolve this. I thought there would be a comment field or something to differentiate the two courses. Please help. Many thanks!

Is there a setting to disable this?

I've got this weird behavior happening where if my window is closed from maximize, which saves the browser's size, and I open it, it will first open in maximize then size down to the same size.

In other words, Firefox will always open the window to a specific size regardless of what it was when I closed it. This is extremely annoying.

Is this part of resisting fingerprinting? This is some unusual behavior that I haven't seen Firefox do before ever.

I can provide a little video if my explanation wasn't clear.

In the middle of the FF home page, the search box functions normally, but not on a new tab page. The box is fake and typing automatically goes to the address bar. I changed the setting in about:preferences#search to "Add search bar in toolbar." That resulted in adding a 2" search bar to the right of the address bar with a TINY font. VERY difficult to see.

Next in about:config, I switched this to false: "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar ". But, that didn't fix it.

An article on askvg.com said to do the above, but to do it in FF's NIGHTLY. To get the search box to function in the center of the page, will I have to install Firefox Nightly alongside my normal Firefox Release and fix it there? Then will it sync over to my regular FF and fix it? Or, is there another way?

In the past few months my browser has started adding white borders around the left, bottom, and right edge. This seems to be an exact duplicate of this archived post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1301702

I don't know why it was archived. The "solution" is to enable the Title Bar under the "Customize Toolbar" menu. But this takes up even more space on my screen than the borders: I don't want it.

It's like this on all websites. It seems to go away when I restart the browser but the borders are (usually) back the next time I start my PC. I'm using Windows 10, and my screen resolution is 2560x1440.

I do not have privacy.resistFingerprinting enabled.
