Firefox supportforum

I got an error message when playing a movie that said clear cookies & cache so I did that. The movie played after I did that. Now today I opened a weather link and when I clicked on precipitation it didn't work. I clicked on a One Tab link to youtube and it opened youtube home page, not the specific link with all my history and feed lost. And some youtube videos would not play. I tried to open my Outlook email from one tab, but I just got outlook and had to re-sign in. And then I could not open an email. I had to switch to chrome to open the email. I tried to use trouble shoot safe mode. I was able to play a youtube video, but my extensions were then unavailable in safe mode, so no one tab. I am 75 and not very computer proficient, and I am afraid I will make things worse because I cannot predict the outcome of the steps offered. Mozilla/Firefox updates automatically, so I have the latest version of that and I have macOS Catilina version 10.15.5 Is there anyway to undo this mess? I need help at the most basic possible level. Can the clear cookies & cache be undone? Is my youtube history & feed able to be restored some how? Help please!!!

I'm using Firefox 116.0.1 on Ubuntu linux. I'm not using a VPN, antivirus, a proxy or any kind of http filtering.

When attempting to load a certain website I get the message: "An error occurred during a connection to www.[website].org. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR"

Google results tells me that firefox throws this error when it can't resolve a safe SSL/TLS connection to the website.

The thing is, I don't care. I'm aware of the risks of browsing on a website with outdated or non-existent certs.

How do I get firefox to drop this security measure?

This last Firefox update had totally screwed up everyone's browser. Especially maps. Half of my maps, especially on Find A Grave no longer work. I dont know what you guys did, but you need to fix it fast!

Before I can even get on my computer, I can see Notifications for Firefox. I use my password to login to my desktop computer and the Notification in the upper right hand corner are there for a few seconds more, then they disappear. I do NOT know where to see them again and I truly would like for this activity to stop. Where do I find Notifications after I launch Firefox (my preferred browser and the ONLY browser I use) to see what the notifications have to say, and how can I disable Notifications?

To get to the point; I would like to make myself available in order to supply the information needed to establish my own website from my own server. I don't want to be forced to buy the rights to my own intellectual property. When I make it known that I am interested in a specific web address for my own use this will be used to gouge my resources and just make me pay a fee for things I don't need. Mozilla says that my website is not secure but I have an SSL certificate and it even later admits that the information is encrypted. I'm not mad, I simply don't want to be bullied and wrangled into purchasing what I don't need. Nobody has the web address I currently have as my ServerName. The more I advertise it while I am working on it, the more likely I will be gouged or it will be stolen out from under me.

I've been working on computational engineering topics on my own for about a year and a half since I have been unemployed. I am interested in developing my own website, free and clear. I have gotten to the point that I can access what I have built on my local network. I run a Macbook Air and dual boot a tower with Ubuntu 22.04 and Windows 10. I built a website on Github but I want to run my own version on Apache from my Ubuntu OS. So far I have an Apache server running and I can access my website with the web address (httpS://www.example.com) I want from the Ubuntu tower. When I am on my Mac I have to type the IP address of the tower to access the site; the web address won't work. I can do the same thing from my iphone while in the house as well. I have created my own SSL certificate (though I am not a certificate authority). When I access the website on the tower with the web address, Mozilla bonks me with a security warning. It says that there is no ownership information, though when I made the SSL cert, I provided a lot of info. I have a legitimate company verified with the IRS (established Jan 2022). I have a paypal account for any financing I may need to do, though I don't want to support greedy ISPs that horde resources and spy on their clients. I can provide practically any info you may need and I appreciate any advice you can give to help me avoid paying through the nose for a pet project that will NEVER turn a profit, especially if it has any additional overhead. I was given the tower through a contract position and I want to use it to it max value.

All that being said, I appreciate a stranger listening to my problems and considering them for a thoughtful response. I understand you have a boss and you may need to say what you need to say. I will try my best to be respectful; though I am rarely respected.

My Mac (desktop) crashed and after that, my bookmarks disappeared. I redownloaded Firefox and logged in, but I could not find my bookmarks. So I tried to rebuild my bookmark toolbar but realized all the websites were already bookmarked (each bookmark star was blue).

Just to experiment, I opened Firefox from the external location (that is used for external hard drives, etc.) WITHOUT DOWNLOADING to the Applications on my Mac. Then I could fully see my bookmarks.

This is good but I have to open Firefox on the external location every time I restart my Mac or change the user.

How can I access my bookmarks in the downloaded Firefox as normal?

Thank you for your help!

I just installed a new TP Link router. Initially I was able to log in fine to http://tplinkwifi.net Later that night and today I try to access that URL again, and I either get a Not Found, or a different page that gives me hints on how to access the page I am looking for which is the page to control my router settings from. If I try to login with Chrome or Edge everything works fine. I have cleared my cache, history, etc. and it still doesn't work.

Now today I am trying to login to a hospital website and it also does not work even though in the past it was worked just fine. Again Chrome works just fine.

Any ideas?

Since uploading the latest update today many of my webpages no longer appear properly. I have given you an example of one which has the URL of https://www.newsnow.co.uk/h/Sport/Football/Premier+League/Tottenham+Hotspur?type=ts You can see from the screenshot image that is added to this message what I mean. This is happening on quite a few websites now. Can you please advise a remedy or address the problem ?

When I pick on bookmarks at the top left and it drops down there is recent tags and recently bookmarked, this is on laptop 1 with windows 10. When I am on my newest laptop windows 11, I do not see the recent tags and recently bookmarked. Is this something under settings?

not talking about settings smooth scroll. I have it disabled. but with the new update when clicking in the scrollbar, it has smooth animation and scrolls 10 times slower. fix it.

Hello everyone. The calendar add on at the side of my Gmail account does not open after the latest Firefox update (116.0.1), but it does work in troubleshoot mode. Could you please advise? Thank you.

Just updated my firefox browseron my windows laptop and lost my sync to my iphone 12. I followed the directions to set it up but my iphone does not have "sync and save data" in the menu of the IOS firefox app. Any advice?

I've opened a video in Full-Screen on my 2nd Display. I know it's in Full-Screen. I am watching this in Full-Screen on my 2nd Display. I do stuff on my 1st Display and i am watching a video on my 2nd Display in Full-Screen at the same time. When i switch back to 2nd Display (click with my mouse on the video which is running in Full Screen), a warning message will pop up that i am watching a video in Full-Screen. YOU DON'T SAY!

I made changes in my config full-screen-api.warning.timeout = 0 full-screen-api.warning.delay = 0 full-screen-api.transition.timeout = 0 full-screen-api.transition-duration.leave = 0 full-screen-api.transition-duration.enter = 0

It's working until i leave my mouse pointer on my 1st display and click on the Full-Screen video on my 2nd display with the Full-Screen video which is running in Full-Screen on my 2nd display in Full-Screen because wanted in Full-Screen on my 2nd display.

If you answer is cause of security reasons, i saw this JOKE Phishing attack example on https://feross.org/html5-fullscreen-api-attack/ So explain me why "full-screen-api.mouse-event-allow-left-button-only" is set to True?

I know many People are mentally challenged but do not punish us. So tell me how can i remove this Full screen Message warning entirely.

Thank you.

A video I am watching is in 4:3 aspect ratio and comes with black bars in the embedded player; however, when i enter fullscreen (on a 16:9 display) the video stretches horizontally, getting rid of the black bars, resulting in a bottom portion of the video being cut off. This happens on my macbook pro running firefox 116.0.1 that is connected to a television monitor. This issue does not happen on my desktop monitor of 16:9 resolution. For about one second or so when the video first enters into fullscreen, the video is played how I want it to be played (non stretched, 4:3 aspect ratio, with vertical black bars on the sides), but then it auto adjusts itself and switches to a stretched resolution, which is what I DO NOT want. In case this info is important: When I exit the video, the entire screen is in a stretched resolution for only about a second until it then adjusts itself again to return to a normal display view. I am in dire need of help, it's driving me crazy.

(similar to this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1401072 , except my problem occurs on a non youtube site, so im not sure how the tags solution would work)

We have a website we are using for supply chain. When we look at orders it shows up in PDF for printing. While using FireFox after a few PDF's they are starting to show corrupted data. Even after deleting cookies and Cashed data

I can no longer 'Select all' of a simple html table displayed in the browser. The header lines won't select no matter what I try. The browser only allows the body lines to be selected, and subsequently copyied.
