Firefox will not start. Error message. 130.0 not compatible with 129.0.2. Windows 10. Started after update download and install. Wife's computer...not this one.

Until today it worked fine. But now whenever I try to login to Xfinity I get You don't have permission to access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server. It works fine on Chrome and Edge. I have disabled my add-ons. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc. I have rebooted. I have turned off firewall. I have checked my DNS. I have changed the DNS protection to OFF in Firefox. I have checked my proxy setting (I have no proxy). I have reinstalled Firefox. Etc. Etc. Nothing works. The fact that it works on Chrome and Edge, that it has worked everyday until today gets me confused. I also tried using my mobile phone as a hot spot to make sure it wasn't related to my Internet connection or IP address. Anyone have any ideas?

Hello there. Firefox has just updated to 130.0, and it’s changed the appearance of the dark theme. There are now blazing white borders around the buttons in the toolbar.

This defeats the object of having a dark mode. They also flicker off and on when the cursor passes over them. I fear it may already be giving me a headache.

Is there anything that can be done about this? Some option I’ve missed to make dark mode actually dark again? User-control of theme components would be the dream, so we could darken the text on browser tabs and the menu bar as well.

Hello, I had surgery on my thumb and I'm unable to type, except with one finger on my non-operative hand. I have been using dictation software to dictate everything that I need to type/write, then edit the text, then copy/paste it into the browser page or application that I am working with. This is rather time-consuming. I searched for a speech-to-text add on for Firefox, which is my default browser, but I did not find one. Does one exist? And if so, how good is it?

Thank you!

When I click on the "Search" bar, my designated search engines (including Google)show on a drop-down list.

No matter which engine I select, it doesn't open. None of the search engines will open. How do I get them online again? It seems to have happened after the last Mozilla update. Thank you.

All other modern browsers have autofill as standard for names, addresses, phone numbers and emails.

I am in the UK and just started using Firefox and really love it but the problem is is that there's no way to turn on autofill.

Looking into it, the only way is to change your language to US and then the option will come up. However, it doesn't then work as it won't let you enter UK formatted addresses or phone numbers.

Why is such a basic feature missing from the UK version and does anyone know when it will release to the UK?

Thanks so much in advance.

I've just reset my Mozilla account password after having received multiple emails with authorization codes that failed. Prior to that, my password was rejected several times and I was asked for my 'one-time recovery key' (or something close to that). I couldn't find this, assuming I actually set one up, so proceeded and accepted that I may lose some bookmarks or other account-related items. Is there more information on what might be lost?

(For what it's worth, I've had this account for a long time. I've used it at work and home. I will retire in a few months and have been changing (or deleting) existing Firefox logins to a new non-work email address, using Thunderbird as a mail client. If there are any guidelines concerning an organized approach to doing this, please point me to them.)

Hello. How do I do if I want Firefox to open a new window every time I click on the icon? I tried to insert the command "-new-window URL", which used to work before but it doesn´t anymore. Is there anybody out there who knows something about this?

Hello, I recently upgraded my iMac and have just ported everything over. Everything seems to be fine except I cannot get Youtube to load properly. Oddly if I google a youtube video it will take me to the video and play ot however I will not see comments, related vids and cannot make fullscreen.

Here are the steps I have taken so far:

1. 1 Confirmed Youtube will work on Safari
2. 2 Updated Firefox
3. 3 Cleared Cache and Cookies
4. 4 Checked the recommended performance settings option
5. 5 Unchecked the recommended performance settings option
6. 6 Confirmed videos still will not load in troubleshooting mode
7. 7 I have no active add-ons running on the browser

Any help would be great!

Firefox is my default browser. I got this message 9/2/2024: Your browser is not currently supported for streaming Live TV and DVR content with DISH Anywhere. Please use a Chrome or Safari browser to access this content. This is the first time I have had this to happen. I have always been able to get Dish Anywhere on Firefox. I called and talked with support for my Dish account and was told that there had been an update on Firefox that has caused this. Is this problem going to be corrected?

Whenever I save a page, it takes two attempts to save correctly. 1st attempt, the page is saved to my bookmarks menu, despite selecting another folder. 2nd attempt, the page save correctly to the folder selected. I was wondering if anyone knew how get my browser back to one save attempt. Thanks for your help!

When ever I click on a youtube link I get a flash of the video and then "Video unavailable This content isn't available". But the video is clearly available as runs fine in other browsers. Since FF is my default browser this is a real pain and may force me to go to a different default browser which I don't want.

I have cleared the cache no change It does the same in incognito mode

Please help.

Thanks

So, it happened again today. Saw their commercial on TV today and went to legacybox.com (NEVER BEEN THERE BEFORE; they transfer VHS tapes, and other stuff, to digital) and got an email from them after closing the browser tab and leaving their website. While I didn't open the email, their email Subject/title was "Thanks for stopping by...".

All I did was look around their website for a few minutes AND DID NOT GIVE THEM MY EMAIL ADDRESS!

This is EXTREMELY DISTURBING!

PLEASE, If anyone here has the Video DownloadHelper extension installed in Firefox AND their Companion App (it costs ~$28, I think.. so don't bother if you don't have it). And make sure you've updated to a recent version, WHERE THEY HAVE YOUR EMAIL/Licens# IN THE SETTINGS (L click on the VDH icon, click on the gear icon, and at the bottom of the menu, click on "More settings....". If your email is there, PLEASE GO TO Legacybox.com AND SEE IF THIS SITE SENDS YOU AN EMAIL as this may help to confirm if Firefox is leaking emails thru that app. Thanks!

SEE ATTACHMENT: So from where did the red-highlighted business appear from?

Clicking on OPEN NETWORK LOGIN PAGE results in the lower part -- PLEASE VERIFY YOU ARE A HUMAN - PRESS AND HOLD showing up. Pressing-and-holding only results in that PRESS AND HOLD business reappearing; no way to get past it. RESULT being that I am unable to access bookmarked websites as I always have previously.

If I click on the X to the far right of that line, the OPEN NETWORK LOGIN PAGE disappears and the lower PRESS AND HOLD does not show up. HOWEVER! Here is what does show up instead of a website being opened:

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site. We can’t connect to the server at signin.centurylink.com. If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

- Trying again later only results in a repeat. - Network connection is quite well connected. - Firefox has ALWAYS had permission to access the web.

MAKES NO SENSE! Any informative assistance? Thank you.
