I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Hello,

Following the Firefox 76.1 update, all my folders are no longer displayed, the Fishing folder is missing.

Between each folder, I inserted separators for a better readability.

I can add it by dragging and dropping via the bookmarks to the personal bar, but it disappears after restarting Firefox.

Thank you for your support Greetings

When I right click and select from menu or tap on a drop-down menu and choose what I want, browser freezes for about 10-15 seconds before resuming the action.

This has been going on for several weeks and I cannot figure out why.

Super annoying

I'm having similar issues to described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1090728

The search bar in the "Awesome bar" has stopped offering search suggestions, either from my search history or from Google itself. When I control-click in the search bar, "search suggestions" has a check next to it, and it is also ticked in the Preferences.

This started last week when i migrated to a new iMac.

I went through all of the troubleshooting steps described in the article above but still no suggestions in the address bar.

I'd like to continue using Firefox but this is a deal breaker. What can i do?

This is a problem connected with SCROLLING. There are three standard ways of scrolling , while surfing and looking through site pages: 1. Use the Mouse roller 2. Use the left click press on the mouse, simultaneously press and move the scroll bar 3. There are two Scroll bar junctions - one at top and other at base. The mouse left click button may be clicked - either in steps or on a continued click... to make the page move ... in steps or on a continuous movement.

The QUESTION here is: While we have this Last No.3 above facility in UBUNTU-Mate, such facility is not seen in UBUNTU, XUBUNTU, LUBUNTU, KUBUNTU etc. WHY?

Can we not have the same facility in the other OS too?

hi guys and girls of mozilla,

ive a little issue with a custom homepage i made which i want to use as my new tab page. im on linux and use firefox 76.0.1 (64bit).

i set up a autoconfig.cfg file with this code:

// var {classes:Cc,interfaces:Ci,utils:Cu} = Components;

• set new tab page */

try { Cu.import("resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm"); var newTabURL = "/home/joe/.mozilla/firefox/h75u1z1z.default/startpage/index.html"; AboutNewTab.newTabURL = newTabURL; } catch(e){Cu.reportError(e);} // report errors in the Browser Console

i also set up a autoconfig.js file with this code:

// First line should be a comment pref("general.config.filename", "autoconfig.cfg"); pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); pref("general.config.sandbox_enabled", false);

theyre saved in lib/firefox and lib/firefox/defaults/prefs

i then put firefox to open new tabs with a blank page. now it works like this. when i click open a new tab i get a blank page. but in the urlbar is the file selected. now i only need to press enter and i have my new tab page.

the question now is- how can i force firefox to press enter for me. that it opens the file directly and doesnt need me to press enter.

can u spot any errors in the code i copied from a thread in reddits/r/firefox CSS forum?

or is there a setting i can change which makes it the page opens by itself?

ill add two pics- one when i just opend the new tab and one after i clicked enter

Example....

I am in main bookmark page. Scroll down to middle of bookmark and select a bookmarked website. Click on website to view. Then click on upper left hand corner arrow and it returns me to the top of the bookmark page, rather than returning to the same location of the bookmark.

Disabled all the plugin, cleared cache, history, etc., and still get the same results. Really frustrating to have to scroll down the bookmark page to get to the website.

Never had this problem until installing v. 75 and 76.

I have a web site page that I wish to refresh, but not go to the top of the page. Currently whenever I refresh a page it goes to the top of the page.

Thanks, Uncle Dewey

As of yesterday my forms with HTML are not working properly. It is not carrying the hidden ! parameter. No problem with chrome. If i display the parameter there is nothing there. HELP! thank you

FF didn't used to be so slow. It now get really slow and uses a lot of RAM to the extend that my disk is full and I have to shutdown FF.

I do have like 30 tabs open, with one or two Slack-like web apps. However, I'm not using them all at the same time. In the first couple of quantum releases it didn't used to be this slow, never mind pre-quantum performance. Oh and I'm not gonna compare to Chrome or Chromium.

Any help with this? Is it the extensions causing it?

• Also I never found a proper replacement to legacy Tab Session Manager (the quantum one is no where near as good).

YouTube studio features; adding subtitles and blurring does not work in firefox. While uploading subtitles, I select the subtitle from the computer, but when I say upload, it does not. The same screen remains. The problem with blurring is that the selection tool does not appear when the blurring screen is opened. These features work in chrome

I have no master password. When I switch the same profile from Fx 75 to Fx 76 beta, not only am I required to "verify your identity to reveal the saved password", but the account username and password, the same I use for the sync login, is not accepted.

Greetings Ya'll,

My problem started with not being able to move bookmarks in to their folders, so I went to support, from there it instructed me to go to troubleshooting, then hit "refresh" at "Give Firefox a Tuneup". "Good Golly Miss Molly!!" It All Hit th' Fan then!

  With No Notice, Firefox disconnected from the Internet, & No window, etc. was shown at the Desktop. I immediately reactivated Firefox, & then saw that there were two Firefox icons, & also a small window popped up at Desktop, showing this "Refreshing Process". 

Now,....I've lost THREE YEARS of Bookmarks, Music, HVAC Training Videos, Family & Business links, & more!!! WTH!!!

Belay that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I Found all of that in the Library & moved the Icon back to where it should be. But, it does appear that I'll have to reinstall all of my Themes, & Add-ons,... Is this Correct? And could this "Refresh Process" possibly have fixed the problem with "History & Cookies" not being deleted, via Ccleaner, when I manually did this? That problem I've already asked about, before, herein the Forum, & I did do several Screen Captures to show that, but, with everything that has been going on In "The Real World", due to My Work, Research,Family, Big Brother, Wuhan Virus, etc., I never went back to that topic.

But regarding this problem,.... I Found My Bookmarks etc, & I can now move the "Bookmarks" to their Proper Folders, but,... From what I'm looking at, I have to reset Firefox Preferences, Re-install My Additional Browsers, Themes , & all "Add Ons" Correct?

Since downloading 76.0.1 on my mac laptop Firefox freezes every few minutes and somtimes jumbles up web pages showing black boxes flickering and jumping around. It is quiet alarming. I've gone through the recommended fixes three times now but the problems persist. I've also reinstalled Adobe Flash Player and Duckduckgo as well as Firefox. I thought the problem could be flash because the freezing occurs most often when I am playing a word game. I tried taking a screen shot but the mouse is frozen while firefox is hung up. The jumbled pages can be anything but it seems that it's mostly pages with images. The problem occurs in safe mode, too. I am not having similar issue with Safari.

Hello!

Firefox crashes mostly when opening a new tab but also sometimes randomly when nothing special is happening. It never did it in safe mode so far. I use the default theme so no problem on this side. I tried while my extensions where disabled, it still happened (but way less often and after a while). I then tried with the hardware acceleration disabled and it also still happened (but same after a while and less).

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Sometimes when closing Firefox, something has opened a new browser session that i didn't know about, and I close it too, and since it only has one tab open, it becomes the save session with only that open tab, thus i lose all my tabs from the first session, how do i recover all my tabs them from the first session? Sometimes, if Firefox has crashed, it asks if you want to recover your previous tabs, but only if it crashed! I would like an option to force that same recovery when you open Firefox and all your previous tabs are gone and replaced by one stupid tab you really didn't even want in the first place and not have to find every previous tab one at a time. If there was a recent history of sessions or at least the previous 2 sessions we could recover all the lost tabs from that first session! This has happened many, many times to me and if very frustrating to loose all my open tabs and have to start opening all my old tabs that i use all the time!

I have crashes and this error occurs in Event Viewer:

Faulting application name: firefox.exe, version: 76.0.1.7432, time stamp: 0x5eb403e6 Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7601.24545, time stamp: 0x5e0eb67f Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x000000000006b666 Faulting process id: 0x1548 Faulting application start time: 0x01d62de8102d8263 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll Report Id: 4f376819-99db-11ea-8f06-d43d7ef05b50

Every time I click the address bar (to type an address) FF shows me a list of links (see the attachment) which I can't get rid of. I tried shift+del solution which does nothing. Also I cleaned up my history and bookmarks (I searched and deleted everything related to those addresses). Can someone please let me know how to get rid of this suggestions?

Hi,

I'm trying to change the theme (only using standard dark and light themes) from a linux terminal. My attempted routes include changing a user.js file (the rest of the file works), in particular setting extensions.activeThemeID (I've also attempted doing this in about:config, as well as editing the extensions.json file).

I can change the theme by going to add-ons in a browser. This works fine. I was hoping to automate it (it's not the 1980's - clicking three times to change to a default theme seems unnecessary).

Am I missing something that must be changed in about:config or any other file to change the theme? The extensions.activeThemeID changes when changing the theme in add-ons and seems the likely option but does nothing if I change this value myself.

Again ff is frustrating me to the bone. An update to 76.0 f* up everything again.

My colors changed. Tabs are now suddenly black. I don;t want black tabs. Why did this change?.

My add-ons don;t work anymore. No matter where or what I try, mousegestures (is ON), doe snot work.

My profiles have changed. Whenever I try to start FF from "outside" (mail) I get a f* popup demanding I select a profile. I HAVE a profile. It does (hm: did) what I wanted it to do. Now I MUST select a default-profile to get a browser. And that default profile is NOT my profile. Plus it takes 5 seconds to start the browser after I click a link (in mail)

WHY? WHY does mozilla constantly do this? I have a working browser, and you screw up my settings :( :( :(
