When attempting to sync my data on my android device it doesn't do anything. I'm currently in the account settings on my phone and when I hit "sync now" it just does nothing.

Current browser version: Firefox (Android)134.0 (Build #2016064983), hg-b8005f63d9eb+ GV: 134.0-20241230151726 AS: 134.0 ___

Hello everyone,

Previously, it was possible to configure Firefox so it would stay in the background while opening tabs from links activated in other apps. Thus, said apps would stay in the foreground until Firefox is called to the front.

The desired result was achieved by editing the setting `browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground` in "about:config", which is no longer available.

If such a configuration is yet possible, how is it achieved?

Thank you.

using a Samsung s20ultra with Android operating system if that matters anyway accidentally closed/lost all my tabs by trying to just clean up my phone with to much stuff being ran on it anyway is there a way at at to recover these closed or deleted tabs as i have important information and reminders that i had on here and im very upset i cant retrieve them

Previously, when I downloaded a pdf file and I clicked open, I used to get small pop up window asking what app I want to use to open the pdf file with. Now, it just opens in Firefox. I don't want to view the pdf in Firefox. I can go to the files folder, find the file that j downloaded, select the three dots options menu and select open with. But thats too convoluted. I would like the previous functionality back of whenever I click open on a download pdf file, it asks me how I want to open it instead of directly opening it in Firefox.

Thanks for your help!

I developed an Android Firefox addon and tried to print out all the tabs information in Firefox on the PC. As a result, I could only get the information of the current tab. Is there a way for me to get the information of all tabs? Here is my code:

background.js browser.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(() => {

 browser.tabs.query({}).then((tabs) => {
   tabs.forEach((tab) => {
     console.log(`Tab ID: ${tab.id}, Title: ${tab.title}, Index: ${tab.index}`);
   });
 });

});

manifest.json {

 "manifest_version": 2,
 "name": "Close Tabs ",
 "version": "1.0",
 "description": "Clsoe Tabs ",
 "permissions": ["tabs"],
 "background": {
   "scripts": ["background.js"],
   "persistent": false
 },
 "browser_action": {
   "default_icon": {
     "16": "icons/icon-16.png",
     "48": "icons/icon-48.png",
     "128": "icons/icon-128.png"
   },
   "default_title": "Close Tabs "
 }

}

My pc firefox version is 134.0.1, With firefox nightly for android version 134.0a1

Something about the behaviour of the browser has caught our attention.

There are various possible explanations for this:

You are browsing and clicking at a speed much faster than expected of a human being.
Something is preventing JavaScript from working on your computer.
There is a robot on the same network (IP 24.126.194.0) as you.

Any suggestions?

I need to put all my physics books marks into a physics folder. I created the physics folder without a problem. Then I went into one of my bookmarks and tried to edit the bookmark. It will say physics at the bottom when I switch the folder that bookmark is supposed to go in. But when I go back, the physics bookmark is not in the physics folder

Starting today, YouTube on Android Firefox using below version of Firefox, the audio distorts and has a continual popping clicking on each word of an audio podcast when you speed up the YouTube video to 1.5 or 1.75 prior to today it was fine ... The audio is still understandable but distorted when using one of these speed up settings

Using the Chrome browser, everything is fine on the speed up settings on YouTube.com

Hey folks!

Is there a magical adblocker for Firefox that can help me enjoy content on this website website without drowning in a sea of annoying ads? Every time I visit, it’s like playing dodgeball with pop-ups and flashy banners! Any suggestions for taming this ad invasion would be awesome—bonus points if it comes with a shield and sword! 😄

Hello

I have a small problem. When I click MENU and Bookmarks, I can't access my synced bookmarks from my PC computer. But when I edit one bookmark, I see all folders from my PC to put in. Normally I can't see all my folders with bookmarks from my PC.

Please help ;-) Phone = Huawei P20 Pro Android EMUI 12

I recently swapped from chrome to firefox on my phone, and I have been having some problems with my push notifications- There are several websites I use that utilize them extensively, and I made sure to enable them, but they haven't been loading properly. Whenever I click on one of these notifications, instead of being brought to the website, I am brought to "about:blank". How do I fix this? I am using an android if that helps.

Hello all. I am experiencing 2 problems with sync. First is the older issue. I have new phone, an S24, with a similar problem that the old phone had. It is showing up under devices, unlike the old phone, an A71, but, it isn't syncing with my other 2 devices, just like the old phone. The newer issue is, while I was trying to fix the sync issue, I lost all of my tabs {for my S24}. My history & bookmarks are there, but not the tabs.

My other 2 devices are synced with each other, for quite a while now. They are: a Galaxy Tab 7 & an HP windows 11. They stay at home. My phone goes with me. I have tried a whole list of steps; this list is not in order:

• restarted all 3 devices.
• closed all tabs on S24.
• updates are on auto; Firefox just updated on all 3.
• checked all settings for S24. The other 2 devices are fine here.
• closed/reopened app on S24.
• signed out/back in on app on S24.
• uninstalled/reinstalled on S24, after I deleted the cache, not data.
• then I had trouble signing back in, finally, it worked.

Does anyone have any suggestions? The S24 does not show up at all on The Tab 7, but it does, without the name, on the laptop. It also shows up under Firefox's list. All 3 are using the same wifi/network, the same internet security, the same password manager, & the same vpn, which has the same dedicated vpn. I admit to having a separate issue with the dedicated, which is affecting the laptop & S24. Idk if this has anything to do with anything.

Thank you for any help, I don't know what to do.

Good team, user,

not sure if it's actually a firefox issue. Using it on a huawei table with harmonyOS gives a portray view in landscape modus and no fullscreen avaliable.

Imagination attached.

Appreciation for hints, and may it at least have helped as a "feed-forward".

When playing YouTube videos the time remaining counter that's supposed to appear in the lower left corner when you tap on the screen isn't showing. Tapping on the screen only shows the progress bar.

The counter functions in chrome, DuckDuckGo and opera.
