Firefox supportforum

Hi, I am an experienced firefox user for more than 2-3 years. But i recently need NPAPI plugins to do certain works. I learned that i need 32 bit to do that. I already have 64 bit. Now my question is can i have 32 and 64 bit at the same time? If i can't, then can i migrate my data from 64 bit to 32 without any data loss? i am free to give further info if needed. Thank You!

hello. I had a lot of bookmarks and used them often. reinstalled the system, installed firefox and logged into the account. pressed sync but no bookmarks appeared. help me please

Whenever I sign in to Ebay or Facebook or Messenger using Firefox , I immediately receive text and email warnings about a sign in from an unrecognised computer, asking if it was actually me. This does not happen when I use other browsers (Chrome or IE) so the problem seems to be with Firefox. How can I get these websites to recognise my PC and stop sending me these alerts?

hi there, I have looked at the various solutions offered - but they don't seem to solve the problem. IT is happening with one web page in particular and began to happen a couple of days ago. https://www.loteriasyapuestas.es/es OR https://www.loteriasyapuestas.es/en I don't understand it as it never happened before - why now?? Thanks a lot for your help! PS I cannot enclose a Print screen as the format is .bmp Regards Karin

My machine must have been hacked by spyware when it was installed, ad would only like to reinstall it after inspecting the machine abroad. What to do fr a “52.09” at this time, where it is not supported? I am the victim of frequent disturbances.

Does anybody know where the ID: 308046B0AF4A39CB comes from?

If you use a Windows 10 1909 64 Bit and you can find this in the installs.ini and in the profiles.ini of users, if you have a Firefox ESR 64 Bit in Version 78.10.0 installed. The INI-Files looks like this:

Installs.ini: [308046B0AF4A39CB] Default=Profiles/8U9skky2.default-esr Locked=1

Profiles.ini: [Install308046B0AF4A39CB] Default=Profiles/8U9skky2.default-esr Locked=1

[Profile0] Name=default-esr IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/8U9skky2.default-esr

[General] StartWithLastProfile=0 Version=2

This ID can vary if you have a 32 bit ESR-installation as well and the only place I could find it is in the registry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Firefox\TaskBarIDs] C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox=308046B0AF4A39CB

But also here it differs sometimes.

I need to know where the ID comes from and if I can rely that if this ID is used, I will always address the Firefox ESR 64 Bit no matter which version.

Hi, FF 89.0b2 Developer edition now contains a "fake editable" search field at the home page (the sentence contains in the class attribute so I used it here), when one start typing in it and the letters appear in the address bar.

For me personally this is partly non-intuitive partly annoying. I never met a scenario in UI of other programs, when typing in one place (where the caret is) show actual letters at another place.

Is this feature is here to stay or are there plans to to make it customizable? I used ff home page search for ages, now I installed a new tab home page extension with manually setting www.google.com in it.

Thanks

Hi!

I decided to add a secondary email address to my Firefox-account, and then swap it with my primary address. After that I wanted to delete the secondary address (that I´m only supposed to use at work), in order to add a new email-address. However, by clicking "save" a red alert message was saying "Email already exists". This confuses me, as it is not shown in my settings! I´ve checked the email-address (which I use since the  late 90s) and it works fine...and I might have tried to do the same operation several years ago. 

Sincerely, Carlo.

Hi there, I just download the Firefox browser on my laptop. After installing when I want to run the browser a black window appears on the screen and after that, , the system notifies me that Firefox isn't responding. So, if anyone has any info about this issue, then please guide me!

Habe Firefox 87 für Linux in Gebrauch. Seit kurzem reagiert das Programm nicht auf den Befehl "Löschen" "Alles" und sogar einzelne Einträge nicht. Hat jemand eine Idee?

Hello,

after an internet session I'm using the "Clear Recent History" (STRG+SHIFT+Delete) function. Sometimes this window doesn't close automatically, when I'm click the OK-Button.

Is this a BUG?

Best regards

20.04.2021 г. маленький ребенок несколько раз включил и выключил компьютер, после чего супруга отключила компьютер от сети. Вечером же, я как обычно запустил браузер, при этом всплыло маленькое окно, что там было точно-не помню. Когда запустился браузер, я обнаружил, что все вкладки, закладки и история исчезли вообще. Караул!!!! Практически всё связано с работой. Помогите добрые люди, как всё вернуть обратно? Не судите строго, но я откровенно слаб в компьютерных познаниях...

I downloaded firefox developer edition from: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/ But almost every 5-6 days it shows a prompt saying firefox have an update, download it from website we will help you install it. It's inefficient and time consuming to manually download and setup firefox after every update.

Hi,

I am using custom links ('thunderlink://...') with a registered handler. This always worked well and still does.

However it seems like the newest releases of firefox (not sure when exactly it started) open a new tab, with just the link in the address bar, before calling the handler. Which leaves me with unnecessary, blank, open tabs.

Any idea how I can suppress the opening on a new tab on such custom link?

Thanks!

Hello and thank you for reading. I had overnight I have shortcuts from the context menu that have disappeared, notably the "display image" that I use a lot in my workflow. I use version 88.0, I uninstall and reinstall firefox, test by removing my modules but it has not changed anything. I can't find an answer on the forums or official sites. I put in image what I had before and now, sorry for the quality of the first..

Dear All With the update of FireFox, I cannot longer save media (pictures, videos) from the Firefox Page Info window: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-page-info-window Until the last update, I could right click on a window to open the Page Info window. There I could select "Media" and save pics and videos. With this new update, the small icons are gone and I cannot longer save these items. Any suggestions? Thank you very much beforehand! Best regards. F.

hi, i'm mostly interested in getting some help with creating my settings/preferences to stay the way i want them. every time there's a update, my personal settings get wiped out and i have to start all over again. there was a time when FF offered a way to leave some updates out and select the ones we wanted. now, it's all blanket updates. many times i lose important tabs and files. it's annoying. the way these updates are coming in i cringe each time i see the notice. and then there are times they get done automatically.

what's a mother to do?

many thanks for your consideration!
