When I pressed the "+" symbol at the right side of my tabs with the left mouse button, a new tab opens at the most right place. So far, so easy.

When I pressed the same "+" symbol using the middle mouse button, the new tab opened right beside the active tab. Now, middle mouse button and left mouse button do the same thing.

Work around could be to open the context menu (right mouse button) of a tab, choose "new tab" an get a new tab right beside the tab chosen with the mouse pointer while pressing the right mouse button.

Did something recently change?

Any word on floating videos ? Have been asking for several years. Any progress on that front yet ? They're making a comeback and are as annoying as ever. Have been through all Settings tweaks etc -- nothing has ever worked. One of the most annoying user problems in the world and almost nothing has been done that I can see. Others trying to Sucker me into Chrome or Edge, which they claim are perfect and totally privacy oriented.

Well done Firefox team.

I got a notification this morning telling me I could update Firefox to the latest version and I had nothing urgent so I did.

Imagine my suprise when all my bookmarks, my passwords and logins appeared to have disappeared. Well, not just "appeared", since I can't find them anywhere on my machine right now.

I've been using Sync for years and when I finally managed to connect (because apparently the password I had been using was wrong ? But did FF tell me ? No ...), I discovered nothing had been saved. Ever.

A really nice morning.

Firefox will not run: Ventura Mac user: Firefox user for years: also Cannot open financial institutions webpage: had to go to Safari. Trying to find human support: have delated and reloaded FF: removed all adblocks VPN etc. Any leads?

Although using "delete" or "shift + delete" removes a search suggestion in the address bar at the time of entry, the search suggestion returns the next time you have to enter the field. How can you permanently delete a search suggestion, which is to say, how can you delete or clear the file where the search suggestion data resides?

Just bought a new laptop and sync'd my Firefox account. Please, oh, please tell me I'm not going to have to visit ~2,000 bookmarked sites to update all the favicons.

Firefox gives the following message on screens where news sites want to show for example a news clip "THEOplayer workers could not be loaded. Please check that the worker's version matches THEOplayer's version 5.1.0". Can this be solved? Or do I need to use Chrome instead?

Firefox was working fine until yesterday. When I tried to access internet I got an error code 1001 and a notice that something called cloudfare was not accessible. It suggested that Firefox was not registered on cloudfare.

MS Edge works fine incidentally, but I prefer Firefox.

I like when I open a bookmark, that I am not forced to view it right away. This can be VERY annoying when opening multiple bookmarks but I want to stay on my current one without having to switch back to the one I was using. I would like an option added at least to have bookmarks in that automatically switch to when opening. Please.

Whenever I open FireFox it takes quite a while to load for several months now. I found out in task manager that six or seven browser windows are opening at once with varying amounts of sizes. I can manually close all but three of the smallest tab amounts. I have never had to do this before! What can be done to prevent all but the one tab I want from opening at once. Is this a virus, hijack,or malware problem? I thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.

Thanks Gay Felder

I must have had an old account (that I never used) with a now NON EXISTENT email address - [edited] @peaceofmind-nm.com

I nolonger have that email address nor access to it.

My new email address is [edited] @gmail.com and that is how I established my new AirBnB account but your settings will not let me add my phone number (added my husband's but that will not work) as it says it is already in use. Can you help me with this? Need to erase old account so I can properly set up new account with my phone number but can't respond from the peaceofmind email address!

I often leave Firefox open since I always have a ton of tabs open. Recently, I've noticed that if the app is not freshly open, like I've closed everything and quit and restarted the app, YouTube will not play and other media (e.g. the "how to pronounce" buttons on dictionary websites) just loads forever. Firefox did not previously have this issue and I could easily have 30+ tabs open and play media on a stale browser session.

Hi, I use sript "hide tabs bar with only one tab" but empty tabs bar is still visible. Can someone help me?

Firefox 115.0.2 ever since i update this browser has consistently opened multiple tabs , ill get 2 3 xtra tabs and quite seriously considering seeking an attorney to extract some vigilance on Mozilla end to address this problem, Its been 2 months and NO ANSWER or fixes. Mozilla need to fire some coders and start addressing problems. I have had enough Mozilla.

when I select an email to print the first page is partial, it's not the entire email that needs to be printed. then the other pages are blank

how to fix this problem ?

thanks Linda

I am trying to search for a specific bookmark, but am not allowed to because the Firefox browser always crashes, whenever I attempt to search in the Bookmark Manager for it.... I am unfortunately losing my enthusiasm for Firefox as a browser, as they seem to keep getting more and more unreliable. It has been my browser of choice for several years, but with each new version, it gets less and less trustworthy, and I am confused by this. What, now I cannot even search for a bookmark, without it crashing to desktop??

FF 115.02 Win11

I fill in many repeated responses, such as DOB, zip code, etc. I was using Edge for a while and have forgotten the benefits of FF. Does it remember? Can I edit or delete the ones that are no longer relevant or have changed - age, for instance?

Thank you.
