Firefox Community Forum

Hello, we were just assigned brand new laptops at work. I had IT install Firefox for me, and I'm attempting to sync my firefox account with my previous one so that I can load all the open tabs I had on my previous laptop. I appeared to have signed into my account just fine on the Mozilla pages, but when I go to the hamburger menu in the top right of the browser, I see no icon for my profile, nor any option for "sign in and sync" like the help guides are instructing me to click on. I can't pull up anything related to syncing in the settings, either. What exactly am I missing? Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Sorry. something went wrong:(

Still unable to connect to Facebook.com, all other websites are fine. Have uninstalled and reinstalled twice and still, it only shows me a page stating " Sorry. something went wrong:( " . I am able to login on other devices without any issues and am able to login on this device if i use a different browser. Whilst in trouble shooting mode, i am still Unable to access Facebook.

Can’t login to EFTPS.gov using Firefox and Login.gov. I receive an SSL error message.

When attempting to login to ssa.gov (probably a redirect to login.gov (?)) I get the following in a new tab (with url https://secure.ssa.gov/RIL/SiView.action)

I have Firefox for Linux Mint v136.0.2

I usually browse with Strict but removed for this website, made now difference :-\

The latest update 141.0 (64-bit) has changed my default save location from g.drive to users//downloads. How do I change it back to g.drive? I use Firefox synced between 2 computers (1 desktop and 1 laptop). I use google drive so that I can access the same information on both devices. I NEED screenshots to be saved in a specific folder in g.drive. How do I do this. Before this update, there was not this issue. Thanks in advance.

When I select Dark Theme, I DON'T wanr to see this. I just noticed this on my Linux Mint desktop machine tonight when I logged in. I also have Dark Reader installed and it isn't affecting ioit eitherit either. Make this go away. It burnsssssss!

I use google account No.1 for log in Mozilla Also I use google account No.2 When I open new tab / type request / google search give me results using google account No.2 I can`t change it. If it`s possible - please advise how

I have been getting this error for about a week - absolutelyu no changes have been made to my usual use of the PC and browser. There may have been Firefox/Windows updates installed. I'm not doing anything different to the usual work I do.

I have tried using a new Firefox profile with no cached info carried over, this doesn't solve the problem. I have no extensions or add ons. I do run Avast, but haven't had this problem before.

Crash report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/1fe71926-ad8e-4592-b103-9874f0250722#tab-annotations

NB: I do not usually get the opportunity to submit a crash report when these crashes happen.

Can Mozilla restore the information removed and now worse than useless to me ? If not get re ready for me to leave. Oh, I see, another way to waste my time, and cause my blood pressure to increase.

Myself and a colleague who both use Firefox on Mac are experiencing the exact same issues.

1. Table header cells don't show their text, unless we specify a font for the table

I tried to put an example of the HTML here but it was rendered as a table by this page. I'll add some images of the code instead to show it.

In Firefox the Header cells are not visible, but in Chrome the text appears correctly.

If we add CSS like...

<style> table { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } </style>

...in the header then the missing text in the THs appears.

2. Other font issues

The Wave accessibility extension has text that doesn't appear and throw errors like this in the console...

downloadable font: rejected by sanitizer (font-family: "Open Sans" style:normal weight:400 stretch:100 src index:3) source: moz-extension://b86260c9-33f6-4529-b12f-a101d8607bd4/styles/open-sans-v17-latin-regular.woff

These only occur on Firefox on our Macs. Fine on PC and other browsers on the Macs.

We tried a whole series of tweaks to settings to try fix this.

I have tried resetting Firefox and doing a fresh install but nothing fixes either issue. Are these known issues with recent Firefox releases on Mac?

Until few days ago i could see all the opened tabs of my first phone on pc using "Tabs from other devices" option. Today i connected another phone and now i canno't see anymore tabs from my first phone. At the moment i don't have access to the first phone as i had to rapair it. Under my mozilla account i can still see my first phone connected.

Long time ago it was the only thing we had: if you saved a file, you selected the folder. If you saved the next file, you selceted the folder, but the LRU (last recently used) was the default.

Now download folders depend on the domain, the filetype, the age of the user and the color of the T-shirt he wears. At least that's what I guess. Its so complicated, my IQ is not sufficient to understand it. And if you refuse to have it this way, its always stored to the Download folder.

After long research, opening the low level config page, identifying cryptic names of configuration properties and clicking away warnings I was able to deactivate domain specific download folders. It was so annoying, I immediately forgot how I did it.

Still I have to select the same path again and again and again for each filetype I want to store.

And the FileSelector has its own history, but the last folder I selected does not show. Why? Obviously its a fake history.

Hello! I saw that the Test day event had started. In Firefox Beta, I entered messaging-system-action.testday in about:config, put it on a string and set the value to testday as it said in the instructions. When I restarted Firefox, the welcome window did not appear and there was also no letter S next to the search as it should be. Please help!

Thanks for the answers!

I'm trying to replicate my windows setup in Fedora 42. I have been really liking the new vertical sidebar tabs option in windows. I have a lot of tabs and so rely on inertial scrolling to flick through them quickly.

However, there's odd behaviour with this in linux. With the window protocol set to xwayland, inertial scrolling on the sidebar tabs works, but inertial scrolling does not work in websites. Setting the window protocol to wayland (the general online recommendation to fix inertial scrolling), inertial scrolling in the tab list does not work, making them much less useful.
