If you use Full Screen a lot you'll notice that when your mouse cursor is near the top of the screen it often activates the appearance of the Address and Menu bars and whatever other toolbars you have working. The whole screen suddenly jolts down. Then up as soon as the cursor moves down. I cannot imagine the mindset of the designer that implemented it; must have been someone poor on the keyboard that uses the mouse as much as possible. Alt+D activates the toolbar! We don't need any mouse cursor to display it. Especially as we need to type anyway to use the Address Bar. I searched Add-Ons but couldn't find anything. Any ideas of how to stop the cursor from activating the toolbars? Anything in about:config maybe? Anything I can edit in the files? Please! Let's get some sanity back to Firefox Full Screen.

I followed all of the steps for Firefox taking up too much memory, and stopped when it said to add RAM or upgrade my computer. Browsers shouldn't be maxing out my RAM and it's getting worse. In the last 6 months or so, my computer started crashing while doing other things unrelated to Firefox. Went into my task manager and saw that Firefox was taking up most of my RAM. Yes, I have a lot of tabs open, but they didn't cause my computer to run out RAM like this last year. Why is it being such a pig?

I have 32GB of RAM and that stuff is costly. I might not be able to find RAM for this computer and may have the max amount (will have to check that). So is buying a new computer because this one cost me over $4.5k and one like it today will cost over $6k ... just because Firefox wants to eat up more and more? Once I kill Firefox, my RAM goes back down to 45% instead of 90%, but I don't like it closed. I have to restart too many steps for extensions when I open it and like to have it open while I do other things.

Please, stop increasingly taking up all of my RAM! Firefox is causing all sorts of strange things to happen when there's too little RAM. Blue screen of death, programs not being able to start, monitor wigging out, etc. Give us a break today.

I just noticed the last couple days that when I search on FireFox my results are from Yahoo. I lose everything you look for in a search. Examples: ALL*WORK*SHOPPING*IMAGES*VIDEOS*MAPS*NEWS*MORE

All i get from the Yahoo is: Anytime

   About 143,000,000 search results. I have looked everywhere trying to get it removed and nothing is working. I don't even remember doing anything to add it. 

HELP!!!

Hello,

Recently when we print using firefox as our browser it is corrupting the header and footer on our letters and invoices to a larger scale e.g. 400%. We have tried using chrome and we dont have the same issues, it works perfectly. We would prefer to use firefox due to the security settings, so we would love to resolve this issue. We have reset and wiped our Mac and reinstalled all of our drivers and software (including firefox) and we are still having the same issue across all of our computers.

Our number is [removed phone# from public], we would appreciate your help!

I'm trying to set up Firefox on the latest MacOS version for my mom. All of her passwords are in Apple's Keychain, which doesn't work with Firefox (or chrome, for that matter.) So I exported everything as a CSV for Firefox to import, changing settings as instructed to enable the option. However, importing the csv does Nothing. Nothing changes. What is wrong here? Did the function just break? How do we work with this?

Bookmarks appear to have become alphabetized. An item on bookmark folder has disappeared. When searching for disappeared folder on the Bookmarks toolbar, Firefox freezes and crashes. All of this has occurred in the last 48 hours.

Hello, I was using a website that has a list editor with a delete button. Everytime I clicked the delete button, the website would ask me to confirm with an alert. There was a checkbox below from Firefox that that sounded like it would make the website stop asking me to confirm every single time, so I clicked it. Now, the delete button just doesn't work! I think Firefox is just blocking the button from doing anything at all. I need that to start working again but I don't know how to find where that setting might be stored. Firefox doesn't show individual cookies and I'm afraid to delete all the website's cookies.

Is there a direct solution to this problem? Thanks.

FYI the website is justinguitar.com, and the list editor is part of the Practice tool.

Hi. Can anyone tell me if it would be possible to display all 3 rows of toolbar bookmarks in my bookmark toolbar? It used to show 3 rows, but I changed my monitor's display settings to make the text bigger, and now I can only see the first row of bookmarks at the top of the screen in Firefox. Thanks.

So Firefox keeps removing all my pinned and old tabs every time I turn my PC off and on. It was good and working before a few days ago where the browser just reset all the tabs and went to the default tab with no pinned tabs and I couldn't "Restore previous session".

The Firefox screen seems too big. For example, when I use Messenger on the Facebook page, the typing box at the bottom is too low to be seen or used. I have tried the CTRL- option. That makes the font smaller, but the bottom is still missing.

When downloading files, Firefox no longer remembers the directory path the file was previously saved to on a per-URL basis.

Previous Firefox behavior: #1. download file from website "aaaa.com" to a folder on your computer, "user/frank/companies/aaaa/". #2. download file from website "bbbb.com" to a folder on your computer, "user/frank/companies/bbbb/". #3. Now, go back to the website "aaaa.com" and attempt to download another file. Firefox used to present the previously used directory for this particular URL, in this case, "user/frank/companies/aaaa/" - but instead, now it presents the most recently used directory path, which was "user/frank/companies/bbbb/".

This issue has appeared before and the advice to fix it was to go about:config, search for browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite and make sure it is set at TRUE. I have done this, but the issue remains: Firefox no longer remembers saved file directory paths on a per-URL basis.

MacOS 11.6.6 (Big Sur); Latest Firefox (103.0.2) Attempts to fix: Safe Mode - issue still present; Refresh Firefox - issue still present

Is there any advice on how to fix this problem? - Thxs.

Hello, I know it may sound like a Google issue, however, when I used Google Chrome as a browser instead, I did not have this problem. Now, when I'm on Google Drive, whenever I try to make a new folder it has the message "Working" in the corner forever & it won't allow me to create a new Google Docs, Slides, Sheets, or Form. I tried making a new folder on my phone & Google Chrome, and they both worked fine. I use Firefox as my default browser, and I want to keep it this way, however, if I can't use Google Drive with your browser, I might have to switch because I'm in college, and need Google Drive for my work. Thank you. Jenna Senior

Hi, I'm new to Firefox and purchased Mozilla's Firefox Private Network Browser Extension. How can I tell that it's on? Should I be seeing some sort of icon on my address bar or something? And what could be the problem if it isn't on?

Compared to Chrome, when I login then a can see extension icons on the bar. Should I be signing on to Firefox too?

suddenly, when I print a bank statement using the firefox platform, the image is cropped and magnified. I've printed statements countless times in this way without a problem.

After using FF for almost 20 years I find that I can no longer log into Kroger.com or HarrisTeeter.com (these are the same parent company). I have disabled all of my protections and blockers and since the last FF update I can't access either site. Due to prescriptions and such I need to be able to do that. I will point out that I can access both sites in Edge. why??

Hi, Whenever I enable the CDP with the `remote-debugging-port` argument, the form autofill option disables and some website like Alibaba and Digikey captcha won't work out.

Can you please help me where to look for in the Firefox source code or suggest any other solution to solve these two problems.

I'm not sure is it because of `LauncherFlags: eWaitForBrowser` but I can confirm that under `remote-debugging-port` option firefox shows these alternative behavior

Thanks

I've been using Firefox on my PC for some years now, but occasionally I have experienced problems associated with filling requested fields. Today's example was a form for arranging a parcel to be collected by DPD. I filled-in the required fields for postcodes for source and destinations. Instead of progressing to the next stage I was asked to enter valid postcodes, apparently not recognising what I'd entered. I did that twice with the same result. I then copied the URL from the top of the screen, and opened it in Microsoft Edge, and I was then able to continue successfully.

That has happened on several occasions over the years, indicating a background fault with Firefox. I'd hate to migrate away from Firefox over such a small problem, but it's something that needs looking into. I apologise if this issue has been notified before, but to date it hasn't been rectified.
