Hi, I recently bought a new phone and was trying to sign in to Firefox on Android. However, after entering my password, it told me to enter the code from my authenticator app. I do not use an authenticator app for anything besides my university account, as I prefer to receive 2FA codes via text. I also do not recall setting Firefox up to use 2FA. Now, I am logged out of the account on all my devices as they ask for a code in an app I do not have access to nor recall setting up. I hope there is a way for you to help me beyond deleting my account, as I'd prefer not to lose my bookmarks. Regards, Seán

For the last month I have been getting messages randomly but frequently when I am making a Google search that my search has been blocked. It even has done it within a web site. It directs me to click on a recaptcha image to allow the request to go through. I don't know if this is a firefox issue or a google issue. However, it doesn't happen when I go on google on other web sites.

Besides the inconvenience of having to continually identify motorcycles and street lights, I am worried about identity protection.

Please let me know if this is a problem for my identity and if there is a way to stop having to do the recaptcha identifying.

Within the last few days I have noticed that I could no longer react to the comments that others have made on Fox News. I noticed this on Nov 4th 2026. I Made a comment on the Fox News site and others reacted to my comment and I was notified as usual, but I still can't react to the comments of others. I switched browers and all was normal and I was able to react. I don't think this is a Fox News issue but an issue with the latest Firefox update. I went to Firefox settings but didn't find anything that seemed to be relevant.

I've tried to use Firefox 3 times this morning. Each time I get the message that it isn't responding and my whole laptop freezes. Each time I've rebooted but the problem is still there.

Each time this happens there has been an update that I've manually dismissed. I'm backing up every day now in case I lose anything when there is an update.

Is there anything more that I can do

Is there anything I can do that doesn't involve trying to open Firefox\/
