I have now uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox about ten times, to stop ift from crashing my Mac on Catalina. It sort of works, but I keep getting error messages in the Browser Console. Latest, while trying to access my City Council website, is "Favicon at "http://www.tshwane.gov.za/favicon.ico" failed to load: Not Found." It seems to couse a hiccup, then runs on. I also get 'TypeError: aBrowser is null' which seems to be a "x" is (not) "y" error, but I have no idea what that is or how to fix it.
Any suggestions?

I have had problem with my Mac, and upgraded to Catalina. Since then the problem has become worse. I removed a chrome routine that was shown as an unsupported script on Firefox, and for a while all went well. Now it is back. I have deleted and reloaded Firefox, then tried deleting all Firefox files in Library (and lost all my bookmarks, but there are still problems.

Seit dem heutigen Update auf 71.0 erscheinen überall ZWEI Zeilen bei den Zugangsdaten. In der ersten steht der Nutzername (den brauche ich) und in der zweiten steht nutzloses Zeug wie "von dieser Webseite". Die zweite Zeile will ich entfernen. Sie macht das Ganze total unübersichtlich und die Listen irre lang. Wie kriege ich die wieder weg? Bisher gab es sie nicht - und das war gut so!

Why does Firefox 71 prefer an expired client certificate?

I have multiple client certificates in Firefox. When I go to a site which requires a client certificate it pops up the selector for the client certificate. With Firefox 70 (I think) by default it chose a matching and valid client certificate. Now with Firefox 71 it seems to sort the client certificates by serial number and thus the one selected by default is the first one in the list, which is expired in my case. Thus, now each time I go to a site where I need a client cert I must manually pick the correct, valid certificate.
Doesn't looks like an improvement to me. Or is there a new config setting which I have missed?

I'm running Firefox 71 on Linux. I notice that when I load a page into a new tab (either from middle-clicking links, or entering URL manually), Firefox UI is unresponsive for about 2 seconds. During that time, I'm unable to switch tabs--either by clicking, or with Ctrl+Tab. I tried restarting with all add-ons disabled, but the problem persists.
The problem disappears if i were to create a new temporary profile, though. So it's clear that something in my current profile is screwed up, but not sure what. Other things I've tried: quit Firefox, I vacuumed all `.sqlite` files in my profile; cleaned up all the cached images (not site data, though).
I'm keen to continue using my profile rather than create and setup a new one. Any help to trouble shoot this problem is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have been using Firefox from a long time. However, from last night, it's not loading any page. I type the URL, and pressing ENTER is not doing anything. Even the menu items of Firefox (Options, Customize etc) are not working. I have downloaded latest Firefox Installer, which when run updated my local Firefox with latest updates. I even tried to uninstall, and then reinstall. After re-installation also, it's behaving the same way.
Session restore fails when using multiple profiles

We use several FF profiles, one for each family member, on the same computer, usually they are open at the same time. Now if FF crashes for some reason or there is a power outage, sometimes session restore only works for one profile that is restarted first, while the others lose all the tabs that were open last time. Now I have a feeling that this is much more likely to happen if the browser was recently updated (it happened several times on the first restart after the update). I reckon that this might have something to do with the session restore only restoring one of the opened windows (which, as I understand, is now fixed). In each of the profiles the automatic session restore is set on.

Nothing seems to work. An appropriate plugin seems to be installed and, after downloading the latest version from Adobe, a retry informed me that Flash was already installed. Firefox does not agree. The download from Adobe informs me that upgrading is a 3-stage process but takes me no further than stage 1. This used to be a doddle under XP. You just found and ran the executable file in the Download folder. I can find no executable files in my Download folder. My current Linux version is 18.3 Sylvia. I am sure that this used to be handled automatically by Firefox updates in previous Mint versions. Now, however, it doesn't seem to matter what I try - whether using the Mint's Software function or going onto Adobe's download page. I always seem to finish up in the same place with the computer just looking at me and declaring that Flash is already installed. The Firefox Addons list includes Flash but nothing I do will get it working.

Hi,
For some reason, my Firefox theme and Search box options reset themselves today. There was no issue yesterday, and I have not updated Firefox, extensions, plugins or Windows or anything else since then. Bookmarks/Top Sites are all as before, and restarting my machine and Firefox made no difference. I also over-saved the search settings file in my Firefox profile, but that has made no difference either.
Any ideas why this has happened?
Thanks!
Firefox 71 Will Not Work On My Windows 7 Laptop

Hello everyone,
I have a similar problem to those mentioned in the discussions here...
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1274248
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1274407
..but the solutions given there do not help me here I am afraid.
We use Firefox with automatic updates switched on, on 3 systems here - 2 Windows 7 and 1 Windows 10.
Firefox has updated to 71 on all 3 systems.
The Windows 10 installation went without a hitch, but the 2 Windows 7 systems have had problems, although one has resolved itself somehow.
Unfortunately the update on my Windows 7 laptop has not gone well.
Firefox has become unusable on this system since the Firefox 71 update.
Firefox keeps crashing every time that I try to run it, showing a Windows error box stating "Firefox has stopped working and need to close" message, along with the following crash info...
Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: firefox.exe Application Version: 71.0.0.7275 Application Timestamp: 5de4f320 Fault Module Name: StackHash_312e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 000000006fff150a OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 2057 Additional Information 1: 312e Additional Information 2: 312e0f649e68df8b8010198c924de691 Additional Information 3: 2e28 Additional Information 4: 2e281e0f3e7e2e5b3bd20302d95cb119
I Cannot open in safe mode - it crashes immediately.
I have tried an uninstall/fresh install - still does not solve the problem.
I therefore have had to revert back to Firefox 70.0.1 to get it working again, and have had to switch off automatic updates until I can solve this problem.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you

I'm on Fedora 31. Firefox was recently upgraded to 71.0 and I find a weird pattern in trying to open links from applications - possibly related to Slack:
If firefox was initially opened following a link from Slack, I can open other links from Slack, but trying to follow links from other applications (IBM Lotus Notes, or running "firefox URL" from a terminal window) fails with a "Firefox is already running" message.
If I open firefox from the desktop applications menu, the reverse happens. I can open links from Notes and a terminal, but following links from Slack fails.
I tried reinstalling firefox and slack with no success. Today I tried going back to an earlier version - firefox-70.0.1-4.fc30.x86_64.rpm - and everything seems to be okay.
It seems like something changed in firefox 71 that doesn't play well with Slack.
Please can I waste hours on end with firefox help on non existant problems on other platforms

Been trying to open yahoo mail as I need it on a computer not on the phone. I use it every day plenty of times on the phone and laptop. Today I can't open it. Firefox says theres an update, so I download it. I then have to verify my firefox account with my email...of which I cannot open. Yet again another stupid update poorly researched and executed. No doubt I will be told its my fault because I dont have update 72.3.56.786 or install 234.3987.2 or some crap no one would ever know about

When downloading a file, the file download window pops up. The option "Save this file" is automatically selected, which is good. But the OK button is disabled until I hover over it, or for several seconds or something? Sometimes it stays disabled, and sometimes it enabled itself quite quickly. It seems kind of random.
Bottomline is, I want that OK button to be ALWAYS enabled. I want to be able to hit the enter key as soon as the download window pops up. I don't want my browser to make me wait arbitrarily. That's annoying.
I would also like to know why the "Do this from now on" checkbox is disabled. Why can't I make downloads always start right away without that (to me, silly) download window popping up? That's what that checkbox is for, is it not?
I would suggest that disabling a UI control is always bad if it's not absolutely completely 100% crystal clear WHY it's disabled. Instead, display a message or whatever explaining why something can't be done.
