Firefox Community Forum

On occasion, eBay styling breaks, leaving me with plain unstyled HTML. Photo below for example.

This doesn't happen everytime, and it happens randomly. But once it has happened once there's no good way of fixing it, and I often have to swap browser.

There have been a number of questions about this on support.mozilla, but all are archived. One of the suggested solutions is to disable tracking protection for the site, on the premise that eBay's tracking files are mixed in with their styling files, but disabling tracking protection does not fix the problem.

I'm using FF 128.0 on macOS Sonoma 14.5.

For me, the solution was to disable the disconnect.me browser extension.

Hi - I unfortunately had to use Hubstaff tracking software to complete a job. It required me to give it Firefox permissions. I do not recall everything. I do remember that it required Document privelages. It seems a rather intrusive software. I have tried looking through settings to disable permissions and could not find it specifically. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

It makes me very sad that you have incorporated this "feature" into Firefox. It makes me livid that I must manually opt out of it. I can no longer recommend Firefox to others.

hi, my drive died 4days ago and i'm just now back online, i was sure that i had registered (signed on) with Firefox. Turns out i have NOT done that... MYBAD, fersure, i am hoping against all odds that you can help me recover all my old passwords which i have stored on the Fire Fox app that i was using, quite happily, with the old drive, i still have some, a handful of those addresses and passwords on file, but not near enough to get back to where i was online b4 the old drive kacked, i was hoping that if i gave you the addies and passwords, you could somehow find that Firefox i had downloaded? I gotta say that i feel SO stupid asking this, but trust me...LESSON WELL LEARNED!!! if you can help me that would be AWESOMELY MASSIVELY GOOD!!!! THANK YOU for your time Malcolm Wright

I am on a MacBook Pro. I cannot log into my United.com account. I have discovered that I can't use other airline sites, either. Then I checked Costco and I can't log into my account there on Firefox. I can log into all accounts using Safari.

Hi,

The Resy.com website has not been working on Firefox/Mac OS for over a month.

I thought it was a Resy issue but they replied:

"I thank you for your patience while team have been investigating this issue. Unfortunately, it would appear that Fire Fox is no longer supporting our platform. We do not have any more information as to why this is happening, but we do recommend using Chrome or Safari."

Is there a fix in the works?

Thanks, Tony

I have a magazine e-subscription to Tricycle.org the problem is that, according to Tricycle Tech Support, my pop-up blocker keeps blocking my log-in attempts, and the Tricycle site keeps asking me to subscribe, and their Tech Support team says the probem is on my end and suggests that I disable my pop-up blocker. I'm wondering if mozilla/firefox will permit me to disable the blocker at tricycle.org without interfering with every other thing the blocker is doing? I have Mozilla VPN and Firefox on my Mac laptop. Thanks! -- Jim Dollar

Hi there,

I've noticed that since a certain update (1 - 2 months ago?), when using the Firefox screenshot feature (that is, using Shift + Command/Ctrl + S), clicking on webpage still has effect on the webpage itself: After pressing Shift + Command/Ctrl + S, so that the browser enters screenshot mode, I have to click on a certain area in order to orient the screenshot camera, then click somewhere again, in order to click the "Copy" or "Download" button when the screenshot is ready. If I remember right, these two click actions wouldn't influence the webpage itself at all in older versions of Firefox, because in the screenshot mode the interaction between webpage and mouse clicks was "blocked". However, this is not the case anymore. That means, the webpage could no more look like how it looked like at the moment I wanted to take the screenshot, due to the unblocked mouse click. Even though for most static pages it's not a big deal, for many dynamic pages like online games this is absolutely annoying. Any workaround?

When I type the address bar, the text is invisible. In the screenshot provided, I had typed "goog" into the address bar, and the blue bar is the autofill text filling in for "google". I tried changing themes, turning off my extensions, and reinstalling firefox. Any help would be appreciated!

A bit of background, I have been working on systems since the Commodore Vic 20, so I'm not 'new' or would typically be helpless as many are if they have system problems.

Over the last week I decided to format my Mac and re-install the operating system. I have a lot of graphics design that I will be doing for an unknown period of time. I have over the years collected many free fonts and I started installing them about 5 days ago. I don't believe my installing fonts wouldf have affected anything within Firefox, but Firefox is the only browser that I'm having this problem with. I checked Safari and google displays everything as it should as well; my graphics deisgn software forums are displaying fine. I have not used google for anything during the period that I was installing the fonts, so I don't know exactly when this started but yesterday I discovered it.

I tried going to the menu on the top right hand corner -> Help -> More Troubleshooting Info -> Refresh Firefox. I then went into MacCleaner Pro -> Clear Cache and Clear Purgable Data. Then restarted the machine. No change.

I then saved my passwords and bookmarks, then uninstalled Firefox using MacCleaner Pro and then went to Remove Remaining files.

Downloaded a new copy of Firefox and the problem still exists.

I tried changing the theme to others. Went to Settings -> General -> Language and Appearance. Set theme to dark, then back to automatic. Changed the main font from (Default) Times to Times New Roman and back to (Default Times) ... but still this problem exists...

Help... Please and thank you.

I use multiple windows with multiple tabs in each window. I am wondering if Firefox can be improved so that when I open a link in a new tab it opens in my CURRENT window (the one I'm looking at in front and the one in which I asked to add a new tab) rather than a window in the background or minimized. Firefox chooses to open new tabs in the last window in which I opened a new tab, even if they're in the background or minimized, which gets very annoying because I am constantly switching between windows to work on different topical projects. If this could be fixed I would appreciate it! Thanks.
