Firefox Community Forum

Recently the reels in my Facebook newsfeed will be black and not play when clicked on. All workarounds have been tried. These included , Restart machine ( laptop Dell Lattitude E 5530)( I know, ancient. Windows 10) go to settings in Firefox, Privacy and Security then clear cookies and cache. This works, the reels play, until I visit another website, then the issue is back. Simply going to Settings and clearing does not work. The entire flow has to be redone. I had my Internet Security remote control and invesigate. Same thing. We uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled to no avail. Is there any fix for this? Thanks.

There are way too many annoying updates and they all need admin login -- which doesn't work. How can I turn these off?

I'm switching browsers until these weekly updates are stopped.

All too frequently, I receive messages as seen on the two enclosed screen dumps. When I click on the "Try again" button, I usually get through to the site I'm trying to reach. But today, I got the other response when attempting to log in to your site. Could that be another version of the usual response to all other sites. Could there be something that is intercepting my requests?

Best regards from Demark,

P.S. I access the internet from a Lenovo Ideapad running Windows 11 fully updated.

I used to have a blank space on the tool bar where I could search for new pages or information. Trying to find and reinstall on "Customize the Toolbar" was not successful. I have 13 items on the toolbar, and at times going to the >> would open a space to type my search. Now does not work. What do I need to do to have it back. I have not added more items to the tool bar. This space seems to have disappeared. Thanks in advance for your help to resolve this issue.

I can’t join any meeting in freenotes app it is saying to update safari but my safari is already up to date and when im going for other options like installing firefox or something again it shows me issues with them

I was having problems with overlays and somehow got to a page that allowed me to turn off overlays....I ignored the warning about some sites would not work properly and turned it on....now most sites do not work properly. I cannot find the page in setting to turn overlays back on. i have uninstalled and reinstalled with no results. I cannot find the page even on my other computers that i did not mess with. Where do i go to turn that switch back on?

Hi there,

For some time now (a few months), whenever I visit Amazon sites, I’ve been noticing a strange phenomenon I’ve never experienced before.

After performing a search, within a few seconds of the selected product’s page opening, it redirects to a different product page.

Usually, it always redirects to the same product page. Very rarely, it might redirect to another similar product page.

What is causing this issue?

This problem doesn’t occur in other browsers.

Thanks a lot!

because of my vision i use the contrast theme feature in win11. it works great except in my firefox browser 152.02. its dropdown menus are not in the contrast theme, therefore they are hard for me to read. is there a fix?

When opening the firefox nightly password manager and selecting a password, you have the possibility to edit your saved password by clicking the edit button. After clicking it, you are able to modify the username and the password itself. However, you cannot modify the url/website this password was saved from. For example, I manually entered the login and password for, let's say, my reddit account. However, I misspelled the website and typed in reddot.com. Now, I cannot modify this passwords corresponding website and have to delete it, and make another one where I don't misspell the url. If this is the case for technical reasons/limitations, then I totally understand. However, if this is the case because it was overlooked, then I'd be looking forward to seeing it in future updates.

i already tried to delete the cookies and cache, but 1 user is still muted for no reason and everyone/everything else works fine, so is there something wrong with the browser ?

i basically got like 2-3 completely different users muted for no reason, but at the moment i can only remember 1 of them and noone else has been added to the bug list ever since... and it basically happened when the Firefox itself got really low on memory again and started to display that red crash button. and even then, many different users crashed, but some did not even get the sound back anymore, while others did with no issue....

ps. i also found the other streamer now and both of them i was following, so that is also really weird, plus i havent noticed anyone else getting muted again, so maybe its just the ones that i followed ??? (and during the red crash button then)

(specs are probably in the other "Firefox memory fail" thread)

My original email is no longer valid. Every time I attempt making a secondary email the system wants to send a code to the email that no longer works. How do I rectify this problem?
