Firefox Community Forum

I am unable to use my bill pay with my bank using Firefox browser. However, I am able to use it logging on with Microsoft Edge. What has changed with Firefox recently? This has only become a problem as of today.

The fucking forced dark mode has return despite the previous fix layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override = 1 in about:config fixing it for years. This and the current replacement fixes don't save. I want a solution for PERMANENT light mode (black text on white background) for ALL menus, pop-ups, dropdown menus and hover over tab info.

And don't tell me to go search for a different theme I've already spent hours doing that and firefox has broken them only making some menus use the appropriate mode. On top of that I can't even pick an option to search for one that uses light mode I just have to go through each one and try it if I want to know which mode it uses that is NOT a solution to anything.

Replacement "fixes" for reference: ui.systemUsesDarkTheme won't even let me set to 0 only has true/false browser.theme.content-theme set to 1 browser.theme.toolbar-theme set to 1 (Why in the absolute hell these were added when a simple addition to preference setting wasn't is beyond me)

Very sorry for the aggressiveness but I am so very VERY tired of having to fight firefox on this preferance for years when their dark mode hurts my eyes.

When I do a search in Firefox, like "Find auto parts near me" it finds auto parts in Kissimmee, FL were I was last winter rather than where I've been since March. My location and default location in Windows correctly shows my address in Hot Springs,NC, as does the Chrome browser, so this is unique to Firefox. I have cleared cache, checked location settings in Firefox, etc. Some comment Firefox may get the address from my IP, but my IP says its in Marshall, NC where my ISP is. I prefer to use Firefox over Chrome, but its useless to search "near me" in Firefox since it doesn't know where I am.

For about the past week I've been having trouble with Gmail and Google Search in my Firefox browser. Typically, I open a Firefox window with multiple tabs and leave the window open all day. I always have Gmail and Google Calendar open in tabs. What happens is that the Gmail tab will at some point give me a message that it cannot connect and has timed out and is trying to reload, but it never reloads, it just stalls. Then I try to open a Google search bookmark to search and the tab remains blank. This happens multiple times throughout the day. Meanwhile I can open Gmail or any Google page in Chrome, which I don't like using.

Sometimes I can close out the Gmail tab that won't load and try to open Gmail in a new tab, but that stalls out too. The only way I can open Gmail again is to close out the Firefox window completely and then relaunch it, then it can open Gmail or Google... until it breaks again.

This never used to happen. I'm using the latest versions of Windows 10 and Firefox on my desktop PC. Nothing else has changed.

Please help me fix this, it's very annoying.

I was wonder when the next browser update may be come as I would like to watch YouTube on Firefox again. As it has been over a month since the last update that made it so YouTube doesn't load the video anymore. (I have tried every suggestion online to correct this and nothing)

This issue started a few weeks ago. When I receive an email in my outlook account and click on it, a new window opens but there is no content, the page is blank. I know the link is working because if I copy and paste it into a new window it works fine. Is there a setting I need to change to be able to click on a link and have it open, like it has in the past? Since it is a new issue I am not sure if it is from an update or something. Thank you

I have been told by my bank that firefox wants their customers who are having a problem with the website when using firefox to contact firefox directly. How do I do that? I have wasted way too much time trying to find that contact information. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It has been suggested to me that I need I need a downloadable offline version of a browser suitable for running under windows XP professional version 2002 sp3 that will also be compatible with HTML5 - whatever it is it will need to be something I can download on a windows 10 machine as an offline installation and copy across and install on the other PC. At the moment I can't get through to any https websites though I can search on bing.com which is http but then if I click on one of the search findings it doesn't go anywhere. I have tried various technical suggestions found online on my usual pc for a while now.

Is there a compatible downloadable version available from firefox that I can try?

I have just tried the downloadable version of OPERA for windows xp but that doesn't seem to work properly - I can get into ebay now, which I could not previously but the formatting is all wrong - just lists of this and that, no pictures, also it shows www.ebay.com even if I type https:// in front of it before hitting return

Would be grateful for any suggestions to solve this problem

I was told my bank that there has been an issue with firefox since the last upgrade. I can sign into my account, but if I try to do anything or click on anything, the site locks up and I can not do anything except for sign out. They told me that it was on your end and that you needed customers to reach out. It's becoming frustrating that I can't use firefox for this application. I can get into my account and do what needs to be done with other browsers. What can you do on your end. The bank is Mission Federal Credit Union. Thank you! I look forward to hearing back with good news!

Whenever I try to access a webpage it shows up as no style and buttons and links are non functional. However if I use private browsing everything works, but all my history and extensions are not available.

I'm curious about integrating Internet Download Manager with Firefox. Can you provide a quick guide or steps on how to achieve this seamlessly? Your assistance would be highly valuable. its important to me because i run a small online bussiness of Office Cleaning Solutions and i upload and download vedios from my site. but IDM is not integrated . Please solve my this quary.

Fx 124.0

Why am I getting these notifications? I have the latest version, but this prompt not only asks me to update, but there's no mention that it will install the beta 125.0 beta 1

I just updated to version 128 of Firefox. Previously I used this user.js file as my profile:

//https://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries

user_pref("app.normandy.api_url", ""); user_pref("app.update.auto", false); user_pref("app.update.checkInstallTime", false); user_pref("app.update.disabledForTesting", true); user_pref("browser.dom.window.dump.enabled", true); user_pref("browser.download.dir", "/home/seluser/automated-tests/downloads"); user_pref("browser.download.folderList", 2); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.cfr", "null"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.cfr-fxa", "null"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.message-groups", "null"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.messaging-experiments", "null"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.snippets", "null"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.whats-new-panel", "null"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.discoverystream.config", "[]"); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.snippets", false); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.system.topstories", false); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.fxaccounts.endpoint", ""); user_pref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.tippyTop.service.endpoint", ""); user_pref("browser.safebrowsing.blockedURIs.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.safebrowsing.downloads.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.safebrowsing.malware.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.safebrowsing.passwords.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.safebrowsing.phishing.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash", false); user_pref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false); user_pref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "ignore"); user_pref("browser.startup.page", 0); user_pref("browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab", false); user_pref("browser.tabs.warnOnClose", false); user_pref("browser.uitour.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.warnOnQuit", false); user_pref("browser.webapps.checkForUpdates", 0); user_pref("datareporting.healthreport.documentServerURI", "http://%(server)s/dummy/healthreport/"); user_pref("datareporting.healthreport.logging.consoleEnabled", false); user_pref("datareporting.healthreport.service.enabled", false); user_pref("datareporting.healthreport.service.firstRun", false); user_pref("datareporting.healthreport.uploadEnabled", false); user_pref("datareporting.policy.dataSubmissionEnabled", false); user_pref("datareporting.policy.dataSubmissionPolicyBypassNotification", true); user_pref("devtools.console.stdout.chrome", true); user_pref("dom.ipc.reportProcessHangs", false); user_pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 0); user_pref("extensions.enabledScopes", 5); user_pref("extensions.installDistroAddons", false); user_pref("extensions.update.enabled", false); user_pref("extensions.update.notifyUser", false); user_pref("focusmanager.testmode", true); user_pref("general.useragent.updates.enabled", false); user_pref("geo.provider.testing", true); user_pref("geo.wifi.scan", false); user_pref("hangmonitor.timeout", 0); user_pref("idle.lastDailyNotification", -1); user_pref("marionette.log.level", "Info"); user_pref("marionette.port", 0); user_pref("media.gmp-manager.updateEnabled", false); user_pref("media.sanity-test.disabled", true); user_pref("network.cookie.lifetimePolicy", 2); user_pref("network.http.phishy-userpass-length", 255); user_pref("network.manage-offline-status", false); user_pref("network.sntp.pools", "%(server)s"); user_pref("plugin.state.flash", 0); user_pref("remote.log.level", "Info"); user_pref("security.certerrors.mitm.priming.enabled", false); user_pref("services.settings.server", ""); user_pref("startup.homepage_welcome_url", "about:blank"); user_pref("startup.homepage_welcome_url.additional", ""); user_pref("toolkit.startup.max_resumed_crashes", -1); user_pref("widget.gtk.overlay-scrollbars.enabled", false);

All worked fine. But now with this new version of Firefox if I use that profile I see a popup asking me for my Primary Password. I do not have a primary password. Why has Firefox started asking me for one? What can I change in my user.js file to stop this?

Title,

The option to switch languages is also not present in the right click menu (see attached image)

I'm really unsure how to figure this out so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time.
