Hi everyone,

I recently updated my macOS to Ventura 13.6.9 along with updating to the newest Firefox Nightly; now whenever I try to launch Firefox, it just hangs and will never load the start page. If I give it about 5-10 minutes, it will eventually load the favorites bar, and then when I click into the address bar to type, it hangs again. If I give it another few minutes, I can type but hitting enter/return, nothing happens.

If I restart my MBP and hold shift to boot into safe mode, Firefox loads perfectly fine with no issues or hangs at all. I'm just not sure what is different that would be causing it to hang when booting into regular mode?

I saved the Apple crash report to see if that's any help for diagnosing the issue, here's a link to the .txt file - https://file.io/ZRVgd3A8jzoA

If there's anything else I can provide that would help, please let me know!

Thanks all!

I'm logged in to my Firefox account, I visit (for example) ESPN.com on my PC. I adjust the size to fit my PC screen, then when I visit the same site on my laptop the website doesn't look right so I have to size down, but then when I visit on my PC I have to size up again etc etc etc.

I want to individualize the size of webpages, how do I do that?

Firefox automatically adding the https to our internat Intranet and I cannot access it. Auto adding the https is off. This site is only available within our firewall. I have had access forever until recent updates have made it impossible to access it.

I type in the URL: ourintranet/ and that has always gone to the site. Now, it is changing it to https://ourintranet/ when I hit enter...never done this before. I have this setting: Don’t enable HTTPS-Only Mode enabled.

I beleive in the recent versions of Firefox, shortcut keys have been added/changed such that holding the Option key while in the URL Search bar activates other functions (Switching search engines: Option + Up/Down Arrow) and completely disables my ability to move left or right through the URL by word.

Is there any way I can disable this shortcut key combination?

I starting having trouble getting Firefox to open last week on a win 10 PC. I could only open a window if I ran as administrator. If I got a window open, then it would not go to any website I tried. I thought it was issues with my PC because it is old and I was having other issues as well. I got a new Win 11 PC and fire fox opened when I first downloaded it but now, I can't get it to open again. It is my preferred browser of choice. Any help on this? TIA, Stephanie

I was setting up a new (desktop) device with sync, and was shocked to realize, that some items are missing from the passwords and settings. It seams like we are in a state of some months in the past.

Hi All,

Been trying to find a solution for over 2 days now! Please help me!

Firefox 128.4.0esr

I want to hide the following, because I need the screen space: 1/ Tabstoolbar = NOK 2/ Autohide main toolbars = OK 3/ Bring back the old status bar = OK

The last 2 are OK, but the first one doesn't seem to work? I think that there's something in the first script that prevents this from working, coz I have tried everything. Please help it's driving me nuts, never use tabs only windows, because on macOS that's better.

Here's what I have so far, all this is working just fine.

The very last line is disabled because this does what I want but it breaks the "auto hide" main toolbars.

MANY THANKS FOR YOU TIME AND HELP!!!!
