Hi all, I have a docker container which is running Ubuntu 20.04 and the lightweight desktop GUI. I need Firefox up and running in order to access the application for which was the intended use of this container. However the lightweight desktop apparently doesn't have some of the services running like systemd and snap. There is a binary named "Firefox" already installed at /usr/bin/firefox but I've tried "systemctl start firefox" but that didn't work. Any ideas on how to get Firefox up and running? Thanks Norm

Why do you make it so fxxxxxx hard to ask a question??????? In the tab info it says, If you want to move a tab from one Firefox window to another, click on the tab and drag it to the tab strip of another Firefox window.

What the xxxx does that mean????? There is no tab strip!! There is no obvious place to move it! These are bad instructions! When you write instructions read them over and make sure they are complete! Have somebody that doesn't know anything read them and see if they can follow them!

Fairly frequently I need to send files I receive in .txt or .pdf format to my browser to read.

I have attached hereto two versions of the same file - one sent to Firefox and one sent to Chrome.

Note that the screenshot of the Firefox version of the file contains loads of UTF-8 character translations that are incorrect and show up as strange characters instead of letters or punctuation marks, while the same file shown in Chrome is almost perfectly clear.

I am running Firefox version 127.0.6533.89 (64bit) in a Win 10 Pro 64 bit environment that is up to date as of August 1st.

This has been a problem with Firefox for a very long time and I would like to know if I have misconfigured a setting that has caused this.

I use firefox on mac as well as on my iphone. I am attempting to update the saved address and credit cards on my profile. Using the web browser, I can navigate to settings and see my saved passwords but there is no option to view or edit my saved addresses. The only result shown when I search for addresses is the sync option to change if I am syncing that across my devices but not to change or view it or my saved credit cards for that matter. I am currently on 128.0.3 on my computer. I also have tried to update the address and credit cards on my phone app where I am able to access the saved information and at least see it but there is no option to edit. Tapping or swiping on the addresses do nothing. Pressing and holding will highlight the addresses but nothing will happen. Please help me use this product. I have been on firefox for 10+ years and have enjoyed the offerings but am incredibly frustrated not being able to see or edit my information. Thank you

Certain downloads will cause firefox to fail downloading then get stuck writing the file to disk and cause the OS(file explorer) to crash. While this is happening trying to close firefox will cause the os and firefox to crash. trying to open firefox settings will cause firefox to crash.Trying to restart wont do anything since the os(win10) seams to wait for writes to disk to finish before shutting down. I tried to download something overnight and woke up to this issue so it will never finish downloading/writing the file to disk. Only fix is to hard shutdown(hold power button) then delete the file and parts file before lauching firefox and cancelling the download imediately when it tries to download it again. While this is happening the disk its trying to write the file to will show 100% usage and 0 read and write speed. I doubt this is a firefox issue and probably something on my end but any workarounds or insight into how firefox writes files to disk will help me figure out whats wrong. sorry about the scuffed image but I cant save a screenshot while this is happening.

in diameter.  My ISP's network enters the net somewhere west of Fort Worth.  I am about 100 miles away.  Is there a procedure to manually set my location so the store and restaurant locations are relevant to me?  Thanks for the help.

I keep getting this message that pops up in a private window to restart to keep using firefox. Everytime I click restart Firefox, it closes my tabs and opens them again. However, 5 minutes later the window pops up again. Even after repeated attempts of updating, even doing a full restart on the computer, Firefox continues to send this window to me. The private window in the bar says about:restartrequired.

I've tried uninstalling Firefox with a fresh install as well as doing a Refresh of Firefox. Neither seem to solve this problem.
