I'm used to check certs with right click on icon beside the address. Also for own servers in my local LAN I need this. I know there is Let's Encrypt. But sometimes it's more easy to just have a self signed cert and verify it myself. Also I want to see, who signed a cert from www.snakeoil.com/insert_your_credetials.

Please help.

When I try to use multiple desktops to arrange the opened windows, the window of Firefox is present in all of them, even the last one, which is usually totally empty (and when we drag a new window in it, a new empty desktop is created).

You can find attached screenshots of my three desktops, where Firefox appears (I blurred all info that could be sensitive, I hope I did not miss any !).

Is there a setting to unset this ?

NB: this is a duplicate of a post I made on askUbuntu, but it seems that this issue is more Firefox related than Ubuntu... And I did not manage to fix it with the answer provided there, so I'm trying my luck here !

NB2: oops, i just noticed that I inserted this question in the wrong topic (android), it seems that I cannot change that... I anyone see how to do it let me know !

How do I fix extension popups in wayland?

I'm on Debian 13 stable with firefox nightly (tarball) downloaded from the firefox website with firefox running on wayland. I don't recall the exact time / build that this issue happened, but it has been persistent for over a week or two already.

The issue I am seeing is where secondary menus or popups do not scale properly in firefox. This includes Popups for extensions, right click menus, or even link previews (long click left mouse btn).

<See screenshots>

---

Things I tried with no luck:

  • Restarting my computer
  • Restarting firefox / Updating firefox from the firefox website (https://www.firefox.com/en-US/channel/desktop/)
  • Changing my display scale (100%) to (90%)
  • Changing firefox display scale from (130%) to (100%)
  • Refreshing firefox through the settings (aka clearing extensions and all the other stuff)
  • Switching to X11 and back to Wayland... X11 worked fine, but back to Wayland just got things borked again
  • Updating all system packages on Debian (nothing much except for security updates on debian stable)

Now the questions I have:

1. Is there a way to fix this issue? 2. Where could I file a bug for this issue? 3. Are there other people with this same issue?

I have credit card auto-filling enabled and several credit cards active. However, most of the time, when I go to use the autofill, though the card choices appear and I am able to select one, and it usually temporarily shows the fields to be filled, when the menu closes, the auto-fills are gone! It's worse than not having autofill at all. This seems to happen the majority of sites where I try to use it.

Reoccuring problem with Firefox and Apple / iCloud accounts

I have been having a reoccuring problem signing into Apple / icloud accounts. Basically, it won't let me login even though the password is correct. There are several ways to fix the problem, you have to try each one since there is no consistent way to fix it.

1. Sign in using appleid.apple.com instead of icloud, which seems to work better.. 2. Clear site data for apple.com and icloud.com, which sometimes work. 3. Clear all browsing data, if the previous step doesn't work. 4. Create a new profile if the previous step doesn't work.

The problem is that the problem comes right back in the next login. No fix seems to last more than a few days. It's not an extension issue since the problem occurs even with extensions. It's not using standard tracking and ublock if enable is off for the apple domains.

Anyone has an idea what is causing this? There are no issue signing in using chromium based browsers. The issue has been around for a year now.

Hello, I have a protonmail account connected to my firefox account. The protonmail account was inactive for a while. Now I am trying to connect a new device to my firefox, but the E-Mails never reach me. I have added accounts@firefox.com as a contact and whitelisted it from being seen as spam. Is there any way to solve this without making a new account?

Yesterday Firefox started crashing tabs on load of a handful of websites that are seemingly random, like Twitter and a few shopping site tabs I had open. It wasn't after a system update or anything, it just started happening while Firefox was already open and those tabs had already been open and loaded. I've tried clearing my cache, site data, reinstalling Firefox, and it still does it. Upon further investigation, it seems to be something regarding libfontconfig, and mostly specific to users of openSUSE Tumbleweed.

Is anyone looking into this? I found an article that told me to remove some cash files and it seemed to fix the issue but it continues to reoccur. Some apps such as MS360 Outlook seem to trigger it, but if it was truly just a corrupt cache issue then cleaning the cash/profile once should have fixed the issue. Instead its become a constant pain in the *** and I'm tempted to find another browser. Seems very recent as well as I've never had issues with firefox before.

Hello, I bank with Fifth Third a regional bank in Ohio. I travel a lot.illa not have a While on a trip I was unable to connect to my bank. One of the issues they mentioned is Firefox is not secure and thus will not interface with their system. My question is why does Mozilla not have a team which inter-acts with banks to insure that Firefox works properly and is considered safe, secure, and reliable? Thank you, Bill
