Firefox supportforum

Hi there. I appear to have some kind of issue/bug with Twitch. For some reason, some streams, seemingly at random, do not play audio. Closing firefox and reopening sometimes fixes this, other times it doesnt. For example, if I am watching a stream, I then close firefox, and use "restore last session", there is no audio coming from the site. Other sites such as youtube work fine 100% of the time. Doing the same on other browsers such as Chrome do not have this issue. I have tried reloading the page and it seemingly works at random, I have tried clearing the cache.

I had to type all of this again. Why??? It just didn't send the question after... It said error I will copy and paste this somewhere as a backup... ARGH

I use Chrome on a daily basis. But I really hate the feature that it just automatically autocompletes/search suggestions whatever I want to search. But I tried everything, I tried changing the settings, tried asking the community but I violated the TOS (I insulted Googles CEO, but I won't insult anyone here : ). Every single setting I tried. YouTube videos are out of date... Answers on the Google community and they won't help.

Until I found this little genius. And I'm glad that I'm typing this again. FireFox is a little genius. It finally doesn't autocomplete/search suggest/force you to backspace whatever I want to search. Until I came back to what I was doing on this text based MMO RPG website.

It was okay with whatever I was doing. Until I went to that text based torn.com game. But until when I attacked a player. It lagged and slowed down, until the point that my temporary weapon effect just expired. It was also very slow and I was unsatisfied by it.

I also noticed that FireFox doesn't support Timeline on Google maps. I don't want to add how I emphasized on Google and Opera with a fake WW2 quote. So if you are a part working with Mozilla, an employee of Mozilla Foundation. Yes, take this as a feedback.

Hello. I see a folder with this name (BSP2 trash folder for undo of bookmark deletes - DO NOT REMOVE !)

occasionally among my real bookmarks. Rarely is there a link inside one. What the heck is it? Why is it there? And should I really not dispose of it?

On my own computer, a Dell laptop running Windows 10, my Firefox 118 is customized to my satisfaction. In particular, in the upper right, from right to left, there are five icons: three lines for accessing a Firefox functions menu, a "puzzle piece" icon for accessing add-ons, a U-Block Origin icon for that ad blocker, a set of vertical lines that let me access some bookmarks and history settings, and a star that, when clicked, displays my whole bookmarks menu tree, showing a combination of individual URLs and URL folders that I saved there.

    Now I am trying to set up a new Dell laptop the same way. It's running Windows 11, and I cannot find a way to display that Firefox menu star. It's got the other star (the "save to favorites" star, farther to the left), but I cannot find a way to display that "show me my bookmarks" star. How do I get that icon to display?

My website keeps coming up as deceptive via Firefox. According to the hosting site (Wix) none of the other scanners are flagging it. We have tried everything and Wix says it could be a false positive. How can I get rid of the flag?

Thanks,

how do I remove the rss feed. Don't remember how I added it. By what term is this feed option called? I see add-on, plugin, extension. Can't find any reference to rss.

Hello! Since I updated Firefox to 118.0.1 (latest version when writing this) the Teams Large Gallery mode in Firefox is displaying black and eventually all the participants appear but the performance is 1 frame per minute. All the cameras are frozen and occasionally the display refreshes for one single frame.

Audio is working fine and default Gallery mode (only 4 camera displayed) still works normally.

Thank you!

Whenever I try to watch a video or stream (any site) I can watch the video just fine as long as the audio is muted. However, when I unmute the idea, the video pretty much stops (can stutter a little bit) and the audio plays a roughly 5 second loop of when it was unmuted. This happens on all sites, all formats of videos.

Only withing my firefox browser search bar, and in the last updates for about 2 years; I can no longer, continuous spacing a word forward. Even right now on this page, I can continous space-forward a word within a sentence, while I'm writing. And this feature is important, when in your thought process. So is their a fix towards this problem; And what are the steps to permanently keep this from happening again ?

Hi, thank you for your quick help. I created a new profile in my Firefox on Windows. I put its location in one of my files in drive D. I did not know that the profile makes that folder for itself. When I wanted to delete the profile, I clicked the delete all files option to delete the profile files. But it deleted all the files in that folder. I used many software to recover the folder, but it seems that Firefox destroyed the files after deleting them. It was not possible to recover. All my files are damaged. I wanted to ask, do you have a way to solve this problem? Is it possible to recover deleted profile files and information without damage? My files were so important that they were deleted at the same time as the profile was deleted. A lot of photos, videos and audio.

I get frustrated very easily, so if this issue might be solved by fixing some setting i may have set over the years, please forgive my venting my frustration.

I have used FireFox ever since it was Firesomethingoranother when it was beta 3. As much as i hate the idea, i am now seriously considering MS Edge.

I am sick of clicking links and having FF tell me it can not be done or simply not connecting/showing, only to open the page in Edge, click on the link and have no problem whatsoever. Happened yesterday on some site, and today, after i signed in at chewy.com, i clicked on "Manage Autoship" to see what items i had on subscription and got:

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

What a load of HS. And once again i opened chewy.com in Edge, signed in, clicked on "Manage Autoship" and was taken directly to the webpage.

"the request for this address in a way that will never complete."??? It sure does complete with Edge. Maybe you should add in "If you are using Firefox."

Yes, i am very frustrated, though i must acknowledge that i have been my worst enemy at times and greatly embarrassed by it.

What can i change to end this behavior in FF, or must i change to Edge to put an end to it?

i now open up to tours holidays under DISCOUNT please remove you have installed (search using an image button ) having this stops me getting help with my crosswords and forces me to close down and re-open and type crosswords again. This search using an image is a pain and i may be forced to remove firefox. Before i had access to my banks lottery building societies and more. I now have rubbish that i dont want. andrew innes [removed email from public]

The download icon is not on my toolbar since the last upgrade. Instead, there is an icon for pocket. I want my downloaded files to go to the downloads folder, not pocket. How can I get the download icon back?

Pretty niche problem, but I couldn't find anyone else with the same kind of problem. Whenever I try to download a file with "%" on its filename, the "%" character gets changed to an underscore. Like say, if I try to download a file named "Skyrim 100% save file", it becomes "Skyrim 100_ save file". Not sure why this is even happening, but it only happens in Firefox. Not Chrome nor Edge.

Suddenly my "find in page" or "Ctrl F" function from the Firefox menu doesn't work. I can click on it but nothing happens. I never get a place to type in what I want to find. Did I accidentally change something in my Settings? If so, I can't find what it was.The same function in Chrome still works just fine. Please help. Thank you.

Dear Support,

Congratulations on implementing the most annoying feature I've ever seen in Firefox to date!

I've followed the suggested solution I found here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1425496

However, after rebooting my machine today, it appears the settings have been reverted and the stupid popup dialog is back.

I'm running Firefox in full privacy mode in case that matters.

I need a _PERMANENT_ way to disable the new translation function.

Best Regards, Michael

A box comes up when I open the browser and asks for a primary password. I have tried my email and my foxfire password nothing works. Why? I need to get to my email via AOL mail. HELP
