Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

A few weeks or months ago, Firefox suddenly wouldn't save my browsing history for longer than approximately 1 month. This is odd, because I have history turned on. I use custom history settings and only have cookies and cache deleted every time I close Firefox. Also, it does not delete the history upon closing FF, but it's simply limited to round about one month back. I have played around in about:config before, so I might have touched something there and not noticed until later.

I use Firefox 137.0.2 (64-bit) on a Windows 11.

Any ideas what might be the issue and how I could solve it?

My google search suggestions aren't working in the firefox awesome bar. Search suggestions are turned on. Opening the console gives this error, "SearchSuggestionController found an unexpected string value: Non-200 status or empty HTTP response: 403" I've tried using troubleshoot mode, making a new profile, etc. I still can't get it to work.

Opening a new private window (via any method, keyboard shortcut or the button in the burger menu) will show the History sidebar for a very short while, then it disappears. This is very annoying as when I type the cursor is no longer automatically focused in the address bar.

I have used Firefox as my primary browser for many years, and have always used autofill for my passwords, credit cards, and addresses. Suddenly, about two weeks ago, my credit card data stopped autofilling. When I go to Settings > Privacy & Security, there is nothing regarding autofill anywhere (or anywhere in any Settings). I have attached screenshots of my entire Provacy & Security page, as well as Settings searches for "autofill," "payment," and "credit card." Please help me figure this out ASAP, or I will have to switch to Safari as my primary browser, which I don't want to do. Thank you!

Hello. Idk how this happened, but my bookmarks have quadrupled. Idk why I bookmark so much, but I had about 40 folders for bookmarks, until I now found I have 160. There's 4 of every folder. How do I clean this up? I know Edge has a "delete duplicate bookmarks" button. But in Firefox, I can only find add-on extensions that claim they can clean out duplicate bookmarks, but having tried 3, I've found none to work. Any suggestions?

I use firefox and duck duck go. I am able to access other websites but not my email. When I attempt to log in it "logs out" instead. I get a message that there is a potential security issue. I am able to access my email using non-firefox providers. I need help fixing this issue. Thank you.

I cannot open any web sites from the Mozilla Firefox on my computer. Every attempt gets the message :tab has crashed. Will I need to abandon using Firefox if this is an unfixable problem?

To Whom It May Concern:

I was able to login to ChatGPT before January 30, 2025.

I run Firefox on Windows 10. Currently I am using Firefox 135.0 which seems to be creating problems with Authentication Errors with ChatGPT.

Some extensions I had at the time are:

Firefox Multi-Container Tabs BitDefender Traffic Light AdGuard Terms of Service Didn't Read Print Friendly and MeasureIt.

These are all extensions I actually use.

And prior to January 30, 2025, I did not have a problem.

But ever since then I have not been able to login to ChatGPT due to Authentication Errors. I signed up using my email and password and never use anything else to login.

I am not using a VPN.

I cleared my Cache.

I disabled my Extensions.

I tried to login in a Private Window.

I even refreshed Firefox and it still would not work.

I have contacted ChatGPT's support team and they suggested I try a different browser and Chrome worked.

But I don't want to use Google if I can avoid it.

Please help me with this.

I have a link provided by a web site I use. Through Firefox it takes me to a Mimecast authentication screen that asks for my email, then tells me to contact my IT department. This is my home internet. I can access the link through Safari. I'm stumped.

Please give the option to have vertical tabs and sidebar functionality split into two seperate things. Much like with Edge and Vivaldi, we should be able to have vertical tabs on the left of the browser, with the sidebar on the right.

We should also be able to open any website in mobile view with the sidebar, again replicating the functionality of Edge and Vivaldi

I use to be able to integrate my excel calendar and my wife's. Entries were different colors and changes on my computer showed up on my Ipad. Now I have my calendar but I can't find hers. Does she need to make a change on her excel as well?

Hello,

I can open up my posteo.de account, and I can see all of my emails. However it is not possible to open up and view an Email, a double click has no longer any effect. I re-installed firefox, this had no effect on my problem. I then completley deinstalled my MX Linux and installed KDE neon. A new firefox installation didn't solve the problem. Just to check, I installed Brave and I can open my Emails without any proble,- I would be greatful for any help!

I've noticed recently after system reboots that Firefox forgets the "Open previous windows and tabs" setting and restarts with only a blank tab. I've confirmed that this setting is ticked prior to the reboot. I know I can restore the session under History but why isn't Firefox remembering this setting and re-opening the windows & tabs like previously?

Running Firefox 135.0.1 and Mac Sequoia 15.3 (but has been happening in recent previous versions of both).
