Firefox Community Forum

I have the last Firefox version and am trying to add extensions (e.g. video download helper). When I click on Add to Firefox, it works at loading the extension, but without any success. The blue dot in the gray square dances and dances and dances.... Thanks !!

When I'm saving a bookmark, I have a choice with one click between the last seven folders that were used to save bookmarks previously. Where can I increase that number to however many fit my screen (i.e. define another number by myself?)

I would also be happy to remove the "Bookmarks toolbar," "Bookmarks menu" and "Other bookmarks" shortcuts that stick at the top of that same menu, as I never use them and they only take space. Only "Other bookmarks" might come into use very rarely, if I have no idea how to classify a certain bookmark and I decide to temporarily put it there.

I'm on OpenSuse Leap 15.6 with KDE Plasma 5.27.11, Mozilla Firefox 128.5.1esr

In Firefox, reopening the app pre-loads all the last-visited tabs, while Chromium opens a blank sreen and I have a button at the top right of the screen which allows me to select whichever of the last few sessions' tabs I want to have loaded. This is definitely more convenient, as I might be working on different things at different times and need different sites for that purpose. Can we learn from Chromium and make something similar? I think the best would be a combination of both, where Firefox preloads the last visit's tabs like it currently does, but remembering the previous sessions and with the button at the top right to allow picking one of them.

What do you think? And if that is going to take too long to implement, how could I program it for myself? Bear in mind that I'm not a programmer, so it won't be something that I will be able to do today or tomorrow, but I would like to hear some directions. And of course, it would be better if the developers like the idea and make it so for everybody :)

I have Dark Reader installed and it works perfectly almost anywhere, but ironically, Firefox' support forum itself comes out all white regardless if it's on or off?

I'm on OpenSuse Leap 15.6 with KDE Plasma 5.27.11.

The situation is like this: I once reinstalled Edge, and then Firefox disappeared from the default browser options in Windows settings. No matter what I do, I can't make it appear again and set it as default browser. I want to ask if there's any solution, apart from reinstalling the browser,because I have a lot of data in the browser and I'm afraid backing it up and transferring it won't be convenient.

When i try to open a document on firefox or upload/save something I end up with the error reading "The windows file-dialog could not be opened. No file or folder could be selected." This happens on every site. I disabled all my extensions/add-ons and ran the command prompt "sfc /scannow." Is there some way to fix this? Maybe in about:config?

Hello

For a while I have been selecting wall street journal articles and then clicking "listen".

A few weeks ago this stopped working on one computer a fairly new Lenovo running Windows 11. Currently running firefox 133.0.3. When I click "listen" on any article, nothing happens. Clicking "listen" on another Windows-11 computer on the same article does work, so apparently something is wrong with the settings on this one computer. Any suggestions please?

thanks

I have Firefox on Windows desktop and on my android phone. I have logged into both. When I click on "tabs from other devices" I only see tabs from another PC I use.

I tried logging out of Firefox Android and using the desktop browser's "connect another device" link to log back into it, but it still doesn't appear as a device. What am I missing?

EDIT: Ok now Android tabs are showing up, but not all of them. Seems to cut off after about 40. Anyway to get Firefox Desktop to show all Android tabs?

I believe this problem began in 133. I've noticed that if FF is open for a few hours, it starts to develop a very noticeable input lag. For example, if I'm watching a YouTube video and hit an arrow key to advance the video, there will be a couple of seconds before the browser registers the key press. It behaves like a high CPU issue but I do not detect high CPU usage when this is happening. Restarting the browser resolves the issue for a few hours.

This is happening on Windows 11 as well as on a Mac running Sonoma.
