I have cancelled my subscription which you say you will return if I cancel within 30 days? Is that correct. Also I want to cancel the VPN on my desktop and phone now but I can't see how I can achieve this. I would be grateful for your help.

Thank you.

Recently my PC has died from the hardware crash. So I've bought another PC and installed Firefox. While other browsers seem to nicely sync bookmarks and history from the previous PC, Firefox didn't do that although I have been logged into my Firefox account on both PCs and I can clearly see the other PC in devices using this account. What is the reason for that?

Why is it asking for progress from the script that will apply it works fine on chrome and no progress is visible on firefox

 <input type="file" name="ossnvideo[]" multiple class="hidden" id="add" accept="video/mp4" />
 <input type="hidden" id="mytext" name="mytext">
 <button type="button" id="ossn-videos-add-button-inner" class="btn btn-default"> </button>

<input type="submit" class="ossn-hidden" id="ossn-videos-submit" />

   0%

<script>

 var input = document.getElementById('add');
 var submitButton = document.getElementById('ossn-videos-submit');
 var img = document.getElementById('thumbnail');
 var progressBar = document.querySelector('.progress-bar');

 input.addEventListener('change', function (event) {
   var file = this.files[0];
   var url = URL.createObjectURL(file);

   if (file.type === 'video/mp4') {
     createThumbnail(url, img, file);
   } else {
     // Unsupported file type
     img.src = ;

     progressBar.style.width = '0%';
     progressBar.setAttribute('aria-valuenow', '0');
     progressBar.textContent = '0%';
   }
 });

 submitButton.addEventListener('click', function () {
   // Create a new FormData object
   var formData = new FormData();
   formData.append('ossnvideo[]', input.files[0]);
   formData.append('thumbnail', img.src); // Add the thumbnail to the form data

   // Create a new XMLHttpRequest object
   var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();

   // Set up the progress event listener
   xhr.upload.addEventListener('progress', function (event) {
     if (event.lengthComputable) {
       var percentComplete = (event.loaded / event.total) * 100;
       progressBar.style.width = percentComplete + '%';
       progressBar.setAttribute('aria-valuenow', Math.round(percentComplete));
       progressBar.textContent = Math.round(percentComplete) + '%';
     }
   });

   // Set up the load event listener
   xhr.addEventListener('load', function () {
     if (xhr.status === 200) {
       console.log('File uploaded successfully');
     } else {
       console.error('Error uploading file');
     }
   });

   // Open the request and send the form data
   xhr.open('POST', 'your-upload-script.php', true);
   xhr.send(formData);
 });

 function createThumbnail(videoUrl, targetImg, file) {
   var video = document.createElement('video');
   video.preload = 'metadata';
   video.src = videoUrl;

   video.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function () {
     var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
     canvas.width = 150;
     canvas.height = 280;
     var context = canvas.getContext('2d');

     // Set the video's current time to the middle of the video
     video.currentTime = video.duration / 2;

     video.addEventListener('canplaythrough', function () {
       context.drawImage(video, 0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
       targetImg.src = canvas.toDataURL('image/png', 0.8);
       document.getElementById("mytext").value = targetImg.src;
     });
   });
 }

Hello. When opening links from a search, I would like to have them always open in a new tab. How can I set this as a preference in Mozilla / Firefox?

Currently, I always right click and must select "open link in new tab." I see the option in Settings to "always open in new window", but that is not my objective. I would like to open in new tab, so that I retain my original search results in the current tab.

Thank you.

Videos on the NY Times web site never play on my Windows 10 PC, though they do run on my Windows 11 and iPad Firefox. Have disabled all script and ad-blockers without effect. If I click on the Play arrow, I get the circle animation that never ends. Windows FF version 128.0.2 64-bit on both 10 and 11; can't tell what the iPad version is but it works.

I have an address/search bar at the top of my screen AND one in the center of my home web page beneath the Firefox logo/brand. Currently, if I want to effect a search the Firefox web homepage uses the address bar across to top of the page. I want to set a preference/priority to using the search bar beneath the Firefox logo/brand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have somehow set my email inbox such that when I double click on a new message I've received (or a previously opened message from that matter), rather than opening the message to read, it opens the email as a draft response to the sender and me, from me. What do I need to do or reset to go back to normal. Thanks ... Mark

Everytime I start firefox, none of my previous tabs are re-opened. This is the same even if I ENABLED "Open previous windows and tabs"

What is the problem?

I'm using Firefox version 128.0.2 (64-bit) for Windows OS

Hey, so I accidentally deleted a password on my pc in firefox, but on my phone its still "stored" but when I click on the password, it doesnt show it anymore.

I am running Linux Mint 19 and when I tried to activate the container extension some options were not selectable and a msg appeared at the top of my settings: "Your browser is being managed by your organization" I am a home user and never had anything to do with any corporate PC. The policy it lists is: disableappupdate true. Everything I see in the help database for this pblm pertains to Windows. As I said above I am running linux mint.

what is going on here???

Hello community, I'm a lifelong Google Chrome user just now transferring to Mozilla Firefox and I was wondering if it's possible to tab-to-search with, for example, youtube? Here is an example of a person doing the exact same thing I'm trying to achieve. Thank you!

hello, running win11, ff128. the tabs are currently located at the top of the window, just above the address bar.

how can the tab bar be relocated to the bottom of the screen / window directly above the taskbar?

a long time ago there was an extension "tabmixplus" that gave the option of locating the tabs anywhere, but firefox updates broke it. i then found a userchrome script that performed the desired action, but ff updates broke it.

advice? solution? userchrome script? extension? thanks

Search bar is pink and every time I open firefox the first time of the day it comes up pink. Very irritating and makes me wonder if firefox is worth keeping. Thanks
