Firefox supportforum

At random times when i use firefox, my laptop just freezes and i cant interact with anything - i can't close firefox i can't open any other app and more...

I tried searching on google and found to turn off graphic acceleration but it didn't help.

Firefox often display messages at the lower right corners - only from selected sites.

It drives my crazy - because I have to click on each and ervy one.

How can I select the sites which are displayed or can I shut them off all together ?!?

Please advise !

PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR how do I get rid of this error that keeps popping up when I attempt to launch Amazon.com I have never had this happen before..... it just started about a week ago.

Firefox. LinuxMint 21.3 Cinnamon 6.0.4 , Google Mail Compose, Pressing and holding the arrow key moves the cursor one character at a time. Google Chrome works fine.

how to permanently keep the warning about closing multiple tabs?

Every so often, probably due to an unseen update, when I press the red X at the top of of a page where multiple tabs are open, to see how many tabs are open, they disappear, and the preference option to not close multiple tabs without warning (which says the # of tabs open), has to be turned back on.

I am facing issue while downloading files in Firefox Private Browsing. Whenever I download my PDF files, as soon as I close the browser window, the files also get deleted automatically. What should I do to rectify this issue.

every time whe I download a rar file it is opened with winrar even the setting for the rar file extension is set to save and not open the file. Also some about:config settings I learned from some forums on the web do not help. I think this missbehaviour took place in the past after updating FF but I cannot remember which update it was. How can I configure FF to not open downloaded rar files with winrar (I want FF only to save the file)?

Hello,

So, I tried to download a video from my YouTube Premium Account. According to the youtube webpage, that video was downloaded to my iMac. My FF 124.0.1 settings are set up to download to the Desktop. I am running Mac OS Sonoma 14.4.1

Yet the file is not there. I tried searching on the Support page for FF. Lots of articles but no real help. Tons of info about how to tweak the download but Nothing about Where that download ended up. I did give Permission in Settings for youtube.com to download to my iMac, but again, I can't find the file. In the Storage section, it shows 37.5 MB, so it should be on my iMac, right?

How is it possible for youtube.com to show that I downloaded the file but I can't find it?

I am totally at a loss. Never had anything like this happen before. Prior downloads have Always shown up on the Desktop.

Any thoughts? Thanks for your time.

I have been experiencing certain tabs crashing upon loading for some time now. I have been searching for a solution without any success. I tried using the debugging tool but I can't find a way to exit debugging & return to my normal Firefox 124.0.1 desktop page.

Whenever I watch any media that has closed captions/subtitles, if the word "god" or "jesus" comes up it automatically mutes audio for a brief duration. It's not something I want to have on. it also censored the word by replacing the text with asterisks.

Every time I would try to log in it would always redirect me to a website that contain only the words "Expected redirect cookie to exist"

It's really annoying because it only happens on Firefox. For some context I just re-installed Windows 11 and I heard from another post that re-installing Windows 11 will help but I do not want to go through the whole process again.

I have already tried:

• Turning off DNS over HTTPS
• Turning Off Proxy
• Clearing Cache and Cookies
• Reinstalling Firefox

I suspect that I triggered something with a keyboard key sequence but cannot find anything that will help me escape it. When I enter a specific web site, the screen displays

JSON Raw Data Headers Save Copy Collapse All Expand All Filter JSON

These are all active but do nothing that I can see.

How do I turn this off, everything I can find starts going into programming Java

I changed computers. I installed Firefox. I followed these directions:

Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles

I copy the contents of the profile folder from the old computer to the new profile folder on the new computer. I opened Firefox and my bookmarks and Add-Ins were not restored. I manually imported my bookmarks from a backup and got them restored. How do I restore my Add-ins and all their settings and configuration files?

Why did that profile files restoration restore my bookmarks and Add-Ins?

Thanks to anybody who can help me.

Autofill has been working perfectly fine until yesterday. There's not even a manage addresses in the privacy and security settings anymore.

Autofill card still works, but not addresses.

I get this message from Gmail when I try to print or open in a new tab.

"Grrr! A popup blocker may be preventing the application from opening the page. If you have a popup blocker, try disabling it to open the window."

I can not find a way to fix this and did not have this problem with the previous version.
