Firefox Community Forum

I recently read the article about the root certificate expiration and the updates related to it (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/root-certificate-expiration ). I wanted to understand whether my add-ons will be affected because of this. Types of add-ons which i have 1) Simple searchOverride functionality 2) Simple functionality that communicates with remote APIs to display some data.

The firefox container tabs no longer have the container name just the color. I've looked at the setting, but nothing is there. Hovering over tab does not help. It used to work up until a few months ago.

This is difficult when different containers only show color and not what type they are ex. Personal, Banking...etc

Thanks,

Jaime

I downloaded new version, cause it didn't update automatically. Selected to sync everything. Now I have 2 browsers on my PC! The old one works bad, the new one synchronized just 5 passwords randomly. I tried to sync the tabs with my phone, still not workinng. What can I do to solve this?

Hello everyone,

I'm really hoping to achieve a streamlined interface in Firefox without the clutter of two separate bars.

Here’s what I’m looking for: I want the tab bar and toolbar combined into a single bar, similar to Safari on Mac. Specifically:

   The forward and backward arrows should be positioned to the left of the tabs.
   The search bar should be smaller and also located to the left of the tabs.
   The application menu button and extensions button should be moved to the top right corner (on the same bar as the tabs).
   I want to completely remove the separate toolbar, as it takes up unnecessary space.

I’ve attached an image for clarity.

I'm currently using Firefox 132 64-bit on an Intel Mac running macOS Catalina.

I’ve already tried the Neptune theme from this link: Neptune Firefox. The creator is amazing, and the theme is exactly what I need to keep me using Firefox exclusively. However, despite following the instructions carefully, I still only see the layout shown in my attached image. I can't seem to get everything into one bar.

I don’t have experience with coding CSS, and I currently lack the time to learn it. I’m unsure if the Neptune theme should be selectable in the themes menu, but it doesn’t appear there. However, I know this design is possible. I’ve searched various forums and read many threads, but none have provided a solution to my problem.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance in achieving the design shown in the attached image. Whether it’s through a theme, custom CSS code, a plugin, or any other method, I’m open to suggestions as long as it works. Thank you!

I have used Firefox for years and been 100% satisfied. Then I discovered Reddit and my inability to "reply" to any of the thousand posts there. I also have seen ALL the fixes people have done to make that work - and the resulting 100% lack of success. More recently, I have discovered X, and was able to "do all the things" on that platform....until now. Now it won't even OPEN X!!!! WTH? It says it was a failure. No kidding. Then I heard that I should remove enhanced tracking. Did that. Still failure.

Why are we going backwards with this browser? I am stunned that it won't even open a major, major internet platform. What can I do?????

I guess it's back to Safari. Yes, I'm on a Mac. But that shouldn't matter because until this last update, at least X worked.

Hi As I am testing something on firefox browser at the moment i have a question. Is it possible for me to have more than one instance of firefox running on my computer with each having different settings. I would like to have eg. 3 browsers open with no 1 having A B and C extension installed - no 2 having D E and F extension installed and so on is that possible or can I do it in ohter ways so I can work in more firefox browsers at the same time?

I'm setting up a cloud-init to make it easier to deploy Linux workstations. I want to display the various links to my sites on my Firefox browser. Bookmark my services. Do you think this is possible? I've already applied a rule to retrieve certificates, but it seems complicated for bookmarks.

Here's an extract  :

{

 "policies": {
   "Bookmarks": [
     {
       "Title": "Main",
       "URL": "https://service.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Service 1",
       "URL": "https://service1.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Service 2",
       "URL": "https://service2.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Documentation",
       "URL": "https://docs.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     }
   ]
 }

}

Best Regards,

Dylan

During the last two hours, while I was using Firefox on my PC for browsing, the password manager lost all of my passwords but three - of which I don't need two logins any more. Where are my account data and passwords? What the hell?!?

Il y a 2 semaines je travaillais comme d'habitude sous Firefox et faisais appel à des services Google, tels Photos et GMail et d'autres . SANS PROBLEME J'ai renouvelé mon abonnement a AVAST et en ai profité pour exécuter certaines options de nettoyage qu'Avast me proposait. J'ai été surpris quelques jours plus tard de ne pas pouvoir accéder à Google Photos : j'avais les emplacements et commentaires mais pas les photos !

Puis j'ai remarqué que Gmail n'acceptait pas des screenshots

En cherchant l'aide, j'ai supprimé tous les Cookies de Firefox

Depuis lors, que ce soit pour n'importe quel service de Google, autre que RECHERCHE, MAPS, Youtube et Chrome j'obtiens un écran de rejet de GOOGLE quand il est demandé par Firefox. Toujours la même réponse , comme dans le fichier joint

Si je n'arrive plus a travailler avec Firefox que j'ai toujours utilisé, il faudra que je passe à un autre navigateur C'est dommage et contrariant

When I am using certain apps as webpages and I input information firefox keeps asking to update password even though the password has not been changed nor am I even in the place where passwords would be entered. Is there a way to turn this off at least for certain webpages ? Even manually and individually would be fine, maybe an option on the "update password" box to "not on this site" or something like that. Thanks,

Hello, I’ve been having this weird artifacting happen on YouTube when skipping ahead or backwards with the arrow keys, or when scrubbing/clicking on another point on the time bar. It’s this garbled mess of the last screen that stays there until a new shot or enough of the current image changes. It is really annoying as I am someone who tends to skip around a lot in videos and I tend to have to replay parts because of this or just deal with this mess. It only happens on YouTube and only on Firefox for some reason. If anyone knows what could be causing this, I’d really appreciate it. I haven’t been able to find a similar issue online, maybe I am searching the wrong thing. Tried to get some screenshots of it with something that would really show it. This has been happening for a while. I use a Mac Studio with an M1 Max since it released in 2022. I've tried reinstalling Firefox as well and that did not fix it.

This happens on any video regardless of what quality settings it is at. I've tried adjusting hardware acceleration to no avail. I dont really know what else to try at this point.

I have version 105 and version 132 now installed on my computer. What is the best way going forward? I had 375 tabs open and of course designed my way. Besides saved passwords I have a couple gigs of cookies. Some pinned tabs etc. Should I just start over with version 132 and struggle through it for a few weeks? It used to update automatically but for some reason it did not these last few months and 105 didn't even have an option to update. Thanks for any suggestions.

I was live streaming last night, and the page started acting up, so I refreshed it, and my camera disappeared.

I went to my stream settings, and there were no cameras available (I have 3 running and available always).

I went to my permissions page, and all permissions were enabled. After finding a troubleshooting page that showed me how to get to Firefox's "Troubleshooting information" to see all Input Devices, and there were no cameras. Screenshot attached. (Funny, because the "C920 Webcam microphone" was listed, but not the camera)

When I reboot/refresh Mozilla, I AM able to see and select a webcam, but only upon initial startup. If I refresh the page, or open a new streaming page, all cameras disappear again. This is not a long-term work-around, as refreshing FF clears my cookies/cache and I have to spend 30 minutes setting my stream pages up from scratch.

Any ideas what could cause this, and if there are any other troubleshooting steps worth trying?
