Firefox Community Forum

I am unable to sign in to my yahoo mail account. It gives me a fault that "something went wrong, please try another device". I can use brave as my browser and sign in with no problem but not with firefox. Any idea why?

How can I stop sticky/floating videos in firefox? I've tried every solution possible googling and nothing works. When I browse a page with a video that I don't care about watching (I'm reading the page) a smaller version of the same video pops up on the lower right side of the page and continues to follow me down the page regardless of how many time I click on the "X" to make it disappear, it simply pops back up again once I start to scroll further down the page. This is so annoying !!!

I have been using this site for a very long time, but, since lastnight (Tuesday January 27, 2026) everything is different. My Theme was gone, the sites I visit were not responding. Am I supposed to set up this page each time I want to use Mozilla? If this is the new normal, then I will not be here long.

Thanks

Hi,

From time to time I can’t clear my Firefox history. I try from the menu, then within the settings, to no avail. I restarted Firebox and even my Mac, and the history remains. I used CleanMyMac to empty the cache and the history is still there.

My Firefox: 147.0.2 (64-bit) My Mac: Sonoma 14.8.3 (23J220)

Thank you for your help.

i recently switched to zorin os from windows 11 and i noticed my firefox data was gone (despite being signed in + syncing my passwords) could it be my wifi? an unrecognized device? its the same laptop + network so idk what

when I try to log in to https://www.bluemountain.com I get the message that it is "blocked". Why? How do I unblock it?

To start, both Windows and Firefox are running latest versions as of now.

I recently found that Firefox had a list of frequent sites being displayed by right-clicking on any of the Firefox tabs in the Windows taskbar. I found that to disable this, I need to use the "browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled" flag in "about:config". Setting this to false indeed disabled this, but it was replaced by "Recent" tabs instead. There is also "browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled" flag but this does not affect whether or not the Recent tabs list is displayed. Nor does "browser.taskbar.lists.enabled", nor does changing the max number of list items.

The closest I can seem to get it to displaying nothing here is to keep the Frequent list active, and set it to a max of "1" item. Anything else displays a long list of Recent items.

I don't think this is correct behaviour for these flags... If anyone has any other ideas here, that'd be great, thanks!

Moved from Windows to Mac and now facing this issue, so it seems to be a Firefox + Mac OS compatibility issue.

Have turned on screen recording permissions in Mac settings and some other accessibility permissions that have been suggested and nothing helps.

Will need to use a different browser just to screen share.

Each time I open Firefox and type in a search I get a message like something went wrong and I need to verify that I am human. Then I have to go through the pictures and identify the ones with bicycles or motorcycles or Buses. Aggravation which I've never experienced before . I've made Firefox my default browser and I'd like to get rid of the problem. Thank you, any suggestions.

why am i having problem having credit car acceptable it not my credit car it your sofware?
