I like to prune my browser history manually to keep things I might need to get back to in the near future, but don't want to clog up my bookmarks with, and get rid of the rest. As of version 133, this has been made a lot more difficult, unless I'm missing an option somewhere. - In Settings, there's only the "all or nothing" approach for browser history, no way to be selective. (You can be selective when deleting cookies, but not history.) - In the History sidebar, where I used to do this, you can group by date or site. I used both: Group by site to avoid deleting the recent stuff I want to keep, and group by date to delete old things I no longer need (anything over a week old). It's no longer possible to delete e.g. everything from the gmail domain, or everything from October. I have to delete each. and. every. site. individually. For Gmail, for example, this means roughly a gajillion lines per visit. - In the sidebar, the keyboard Delete button no longer works either. I have to manually click the trash can icon, wait for it to vanish, click the next one...

Is the option to edit this efficiently completely gone, or am I missing something?

Yesterday I attempted to set up an account on Hulu. Every time I put in a password, it was rejected. I tried multiple times thinking it was a problem with Hulu. Did not work. So I went to Chrome and was able to set up an account without password being rejected -- I wonder if there is a solution to this as I want to use FF -- thanks.

After an update notification, i downloaded and updated my firefox to version 132.0.1. after the update, i continually get the notification to update. when i try to perform the update again,i get a message that reads "failed to check for updates". please help this notification is very annoying...

I want to use Firefox on Debian 12, I already use it on Windows 10, but the browser don't redirect from a web page to an application. For example for the authentification: I click to login with google, the app send this to firefox but after that it don't remind to the app.

It has been working fine - now I get this message:

I've tried making Google an exception, to no avail.

In Duolingo you can turn on/off the sound settings which include 'motivational' noises when you answer correctly. I find them annoying so have them off. I've been using Duolingo and Firefox together for years, no problem, then a couple of months ago these sound settings became ineffective i.e. permanently on even if turned off in Duolingo. I thought the problem was a bug in Duolingo until I loaded it from Microsoft Edge and there was no problem. The settings turned on and off. I'd prefer to carry on as I was before and just use Firefox. How can I fix this?

I'm not sure what type of issue this is, so hopefully I’ve posted it in the right place!

Devices:

• Firefox version 133.0 on 2022 M2 MacBook Pro OS Sequoia 15.1.1
• Firefox version 133.0 on iPhone 16 Pro Max iOS 18.1.1 (*for reference, of checking issue, not where issue is occurring)

Issue Breakdown: While updating my bookmark's tags in Bookmark Manager, my tags all but disappeared and other strange things started happening.

• My tags aren't in the sidebar menu of the Bookmark Manager at all. See Screenshot 1.
• Already tagged bookmarks retained the tags, but I’m unable to edit, add, or remove bookmark tags at all. When the bookmark is selected, the bookmark’s tags, nor any other tags, appear in a list under the bookmarks tags. See Screenshot 2.
• I can locate all bookmarks with the same tag by searching bookmarks in the Bookmark Manager.
• I can move and rename pre-existing bookmarks.
• I can add new bookmarks (confirmed by the blue star beside the address bar on the main browser after exiting and re-entering), but I cannot find those bookmarks anywhere in Bookmark Manager.
• My mobile bookmarks folder isn’t shown in Bookmarks Manager, but I can view 11 bookmarks in my Mobile Bookmarks folder on my phone’s Firefox application.

I’ve tried the following:

• restarting Firefox by quitting the application
• refreshing Firefox through the browser [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-se...]
• restarting my computer
• clearing the startup cache
• clearing the cache [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-clear-firefox-cache|link]
• restarted in Troubleshoot Mode [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubl...]
• uninstalling then reinstalling Firefox software

I have no idea what is wrong with it or what is going on. What else can I do?

I am encountering an issue with the Ultimate Addon Image Gallery when viewed in the Mozilla browser. On the user's first visit to the page, the image gallery fails to load promptly, often taking a long time to display. During this delay, a black screen appears instead of the intended images, and the images do not retain their original sizes.

This issue is specific to the Mozilla browser and impacts the user experience. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or troubleshootinghttps://globalstep.com/art-page-revised-v6-33/

I would like to take a screenshot of my expanded emails on protonmail.com - but it is not working when when I click "full page" option. Is this possible? I don't want to take screenshots manually by scrolling down the window...

Hi, I just switched from windows 10 to Windows 11. On windows 10 once you position the picture in picture once it appears in that position every time time you start up a new picture in picture. In Windows 11 the picture in picture doggedly appears in the same position necessitating moving it to your preferred position every time.

I am running Windows 11 with an RTX4080 super on two 4K screens set to Nvidia surround mode with the latest driver. The picture in picture always positions about 20 pixels into the left (main) screen. I then move it to the 10,10 position on the right screen. I expect the next time I start a picture in picture that it will appear at the 10,10 position on the right screen. Instead it appears in the old position on the left screen, forcing me to move it every time.

The current version of Firefox remembers the size of the picture in picture when I resize it. But is does not remember the x,y position on the picture in picture once it is resized over a certain size.

Is there a setting in about that sets the position of the picture in picture?

Firefox is verified Broken! Whatever Firefox did with its last update is causing major problems. Spent hours with the internet provider and websites trying to figure out why could not access webpages and internet accounts.

Firefox is taking forever to load pages and often just times out or never actually loading the page. When I can get to a page, something is interfering with account access on webpages. Spent 3 hours with AT&T where they monitored trying to access my email account.

Could access with Edge, Chrome and Safari. However, Firefox is dead and will not allow me to access websites as pages do not load or interferes with account access.

Mozilla support needs to fix this issue ASAP or I will be forced to leave Firefox for good. I know I am not the only one having this issue! I was willing to put in the effort to verify if Firefox was actually broken or not!

Having updated to latest browser version I am continually getting this page

https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/133.0/whatsnew/?oldversion=132.0

It is not in my startup URL's I use the default.

I have cleared all browser cache and data with no effect.

The list of previously visited sites in firefox windows seems to have shrunk in some recent update of firefox. Now, when I click the address bar I only get 5 options, the first being search with google and the remaining 4 being previously visited sites. Used to be that list was much longer. Is there a way to customize this, or revert it back to where it contains 10+ items?

Today I suddenly started receiving the error code: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE on a secure authentication page that was working until a few hours earlier, belonging to a major national bank.

https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ cannot reach that page, other SSL checking sites report variable results (some say one cert in the chain has expired after a CRL, others say all is OK)

The same page/site works flawlessly on Chrome. Firefox incompatibility with popular portals is a growing trend unfortunately.

After a little digging with developer tools, it comes out the OCSP query reports the REVOKED_CERTIFICATE error. Disabling the "Query OCSP [..]" option in Firefox that website starts working fine again.

Now, I would like to still keep using the OCSP queries ON, and I definitely want to keep using Firefox for everything.

My question is: when a portal or website is found to be broken with Firefox (with default settings), with a root cause found like in this case, how can it be reported?

Having a clear report path would be useful to try to make the browser more compatible (in this case : was this a bug? Some wrong information on OCSP responders? Some mess caused by the website mantainers?)
