منتدى دعم ”Firefox“

Hello,

When using the Firefox search bar, it keeps redirecting me to Bing or Yahoo searches. This is odd because I've ensured that my search browser is selected to Google. I have zero extensions or add-ons. To elaborate on the issue for example, if I type "test" in the search bar, it opens up Microsoft Bing search or Yahoo.

Things I have tried: --> Malware/virus scan (0 threats found) --> Refreshed Firefox (problem comes back after 5 minutes) --> Opened Firefox in troubleshoot-mode (problem still occurs) --> Cleared cookies, etc (problem comes back after 5 minutes) --> Uninstalled and re-installed Firefox (problem still occurs)

I'd greatly appreciate your help.

Thanks,

youtube is the only site that streams properly(mostly), any other site gets stuck with 3 god dam dots in the middle. OTHER BROWSERS work JUST FINE. but I dont want to use internet explorer anymore. FF USED to work well.

some site literally just stop playing video. for 10+ minutes or until I intervene. if I copy the link and put it into edge it streams without issues.

internet, router, and pc are not the problem, I'm having a firefox issue. ive reinstalled the browser and cleared cache but nothing fixes streaming.

So I read on Reddit the intentions of Google with Chrome and adblocker add-ons, and I was worried because Brave (my Android browser until today) is based on Chromium as well. I've always been a Firefox user on desktop, and now on mobile as well since the dev team fixed the rendering errors of Firefox on Android. Ok so here goes my question: I've installed Brave on desktop (Linux) since I want my saved mobile login data on Firefox as well. So I exported a plaintext (unencrypted) *.csv file from Brave desktop and I am unable to import it onto Firefox (also on desktop).

I'm aware of the about:config key to be able to import CSV files to Firefox password manager, and is set to True. But the file does not import at all, so I opened the Browser Console and this is the logger output when I try to import the CSV file(screenshot also available):

``` eval() and eval-like uses are not allowed in the Parent Process or in System Contexts (Blocked usage in “chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js”) d3.js:2040:16

call to Function() blocked by CSP d3.js:2040

   parse chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2040
   parseRows chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2088

   importFromCSV resource://gre/modules/LoginCSVImport.jsm:161
   InterpretGeneratorResume self-hosted:1458
   AsyncFunctionNext self-hosted:668

``` Then I looked into a CSV file generated by Firefox and it has the password hashed, so how do I need to proceed?

Is there any tool to convert the CSV contents?

Really, I want to use Firefox on all my devices but this change (for good) came from nowhere...

Hope someone has had this issue and can help me.

My homepage is Google. When i open it on my desktop (win7) the cursor is automatically in the search bar on that webpage. As i want it to be. My number one function when opening firefox is to search google so that is where i want to start. NOT in the address bar ever.

On my laptop (upgraded to win10) it is in the address bar.

I installed the exact same profile from my desktop to laptop.

I have run it in troubleshoot mode and the issue went away. So i disabled all addons and custom themes but issue still persisted.

I turned off hardware acceleration, no change.

What else could troubleshooting be turning off?

Why does the exact profile work on desktop but not laptop ?

Hello,

My cookies.sqlite file keeps deleting itself after I start browsing, and after a restart, it replaces it with a new cookies.sqlite file. My actual cookies.sqlite file is 1536kb, and for some reason, that's the magical number that unfortunately is causing me issues or otherwise. Please help!

Up until now, when I've downloaded a file, the download button displays a dropdown of the downloaded file list, and other features. After updating to v104.0.2, the download button ONLY highlights to signal that files have been downloaded to my download directory, but clicking this button does nothing. Instead, the only way I can access my downloads is by Ctrl-J or clicking on the 3-horiz-lines and select Downloads, which opens a separate dialog box. Why this change? How can I restore the old/standard feature which worked quickly and intuitively?

Hi. Firefox is distorting any images when printing. It will correctly print plain text but anything with images gets distorted. The distortion is caused by the image being highly magnified.

I am using Version 104.0.2 on a MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.4.

I have:

• Checked to see how the same images print in different browsers - no problems
• Checked printing from the computer after downloading - no problems
• Cleared the saved print settings
• Refreshed Firefox
• Cleared the start up cache

I am now out of ideas.

Can you assist me in getting Firefox to print as before? Never had this problem in years of usage.

Thanks, Nick

there are websites that have separate subdomains for their different language pages and every time i stumble upon the different language subdomain, it gets locked to that different language on every site possible and it has done this since the beginning of the times itself... and it is of course very annoying, because then i have to delete all of the cookies for that site and log in again etc etc etc...

for example: https://www.osta.ee/ https://www.osta.ee/ru

after i visit the /ru language page, it gets locked to that language and the only way to get back to the normal main page is to delete the cookies...

i'm not even sure if it still does that(it did couple of months ago), but i am not going to test it anyway, because i dont want to get locked to the language that i do not understand....

but you can basically test this with any site that has different pages/subdomains for their different languages etc....

and how can this be fixed then

Hi! I had the find-it pro malware on my computer. It caused my new tab page to redirect from Firefox Home to find-it pro. I've since used Malwarebytes to remove the virus, but the redirect is still happening. It only happens when I have my new tab page set to Firefox Home, which makes me think that there's something still installed on Firefox that causes an automatic redirect. I don't see any extensions that would be causing it. Is there anything I can do that wouldn't involve refreshing my browser? I don't want to download all of my extensions again. Thanks!

As of 9/8 on Etsy (Firefox), I cannot make selections as to options on products (I get an eternal circle going around):

I CAN select options with Safari. I've cleared cookies, history, restarted, etc. to no avail. Please help! Thank you.

Recently when I get an email from John Lewis eg about new products and I click to go to their site I get an "Access Denied from this server" message. Then I have to go on Safari (which I hate!) to access the site. Please can you help, there had been no problem for years until now.

Dear Community,

I've been struggling with a very peculiar error with my Firefox in the last couple of weeks that I haven't managed to find a solution for. It's kinda disturbing and makes me want to stop using the whole thing, even though I'm a big fan of Firefox.

1.) The first sign of the error is the browser suddenly becoming partially unresponsive. The UI still works - as in, you can scroll down/up on open pages, navigate through menus, open/close tabs, etc. but no HTML content is loaded JS isn't running. First I thought this was just bad connection, but I had a stable internet connection and other browsers would load the same pages. 2.) At this point, when I try to close the whole app and restart it, I get a message that the browser is already running. The dialogue box also offers to force restart the app, which doesn't work (it stops the process but doesn't restart it, so I still have to manually launch the app). 3.) After manually launching after failed force restart, I'm getting another error message saying that I'm using an "old version of Firefox", due to which my old profile "might not work". I can either exit the app or create a new profile. From a new profile I can load profile manager but I'm unable to launch the other profile. However, indeed there is an app update pending. 4.) After the update is installed, the browser launches the new profile and and then from the profile manager I'm able to load the other profile, set is up as standard and remove all other profiles. After this step, all seems to be normal and Firefox keeps working without any issues until a next update is found, but then the whole issue starts from point 1.

First time I suspected that the profile is corrupted, so I deleted it and resynced the settings from my Firefox Account, but this has not helped, so I fully removed Firefox with all the data stored on the local drives and reinstalled it. Then the latest version was installed and the profile worked, so I presumed the issue to be resolved until a new update came. In the last month there's been at least 3-4 updates, all triggering this very peculiar issue issue. I was thinking this might be known so the devs would release a fix soon, but I couldn't find the same issue mentioned, so now I'm suspecting one of the add-ons acting up. However, since the issue only reproducible when an update is released, it would somewhat complicated and time-consuming to deduct which one is causing the error. Hence, asking question here as I'm wondering if anyone had encountered anything similar or could suggest any further steps to fix the error.

I'm using 104.0.2 (64-bit) and following add-ons:

I haven't captured the exact error messages but I'm happy to do if that sheds some further light on the issue (would have to wait until next update for the issue to happen though). Any tips would be appreciated.

When I am using gnuplot the bellow message is coming. Need help!

Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

Yahoo email issue I have been going around in circles on this 'help' site & now i've somehow found this page so hopefully i can get some proper advice? My sky/yahoo email won't fully load & this has only begun to happen last few weeks, I have tried every solution offered to no avail. Wgat happens is i open my sky/yahoo email vis the fully updated (before any one asks) Firefox browser but my email will stop loading after a few eeks worth, today back to 29th Aug only then i just see grey bars & no continuation of downlaod although the page tells me i have some 700 inbox emails. It's pretty much the same with 'sent' too.
