Firefox-Hilfeforum

A Windows 7 computer, on being restarted from an overnight rest will nor open local files but will open URL referenced files. All Firefox Extensions have been removed. There was no problem before the computer was turned off. This computer can also open in Windows XP. It performs well in XP.

Updated a month ago and discovered all of my password stored history in FF is gone.....

I have seen that this happened to others but despite efforts, unable to restore all my passwords after the update despite that it says this will not happen.

I have followed the steps of profile, sync but nothing.

Afraid to ever update again and never had this issue in many years of using ff.

Help

In the past when I saw an article that I wanted to email to myself, I would click on the envelop icon and it would go to “choose and application to open the mail to link” I would choose if I remember correctly Yahoo and it would open up.

Now the only choice I have if Firefox, and when I click on it nothing happens. What is the problem?

Under”Choose other Applications”, there is nothing to forward that article to me.

When I want to access a particular page the page appears and then immediately disappears. In another instance I can get to a site but some of the links won't work. When I try and use the link the page appears and then quickly an error 500 Message appears. These problems don't exist If I switch to ms edge. This of course is a pain to have to switch prowsers to reach these pages particular with the site that I can enter but can't use some of the links. Would really appreciate your help

Today I tried to place an online order to pickup from Texas Roadhouse, but no matter what time I chose a message said it was not available. The only selection that worked was "Earliest Available Time". Finally I called to place an order. Firefox worked 2 months ago but I don't recall which version I was using at the time.

Today I was using FF vers 97.x and later updated to vers 99.0.1 figuring that might be the problem, but it made no difference.

Later I tried Windows 10 Edge & that worked. Then tried a Chromebook & that also worked.

I've also had problems going to the Tracfone website & so have several other people. It's hit or miss with Firefox & usually it doesn't work. But Chrome or Edge seem to work for everyone.

Is this a website problem or a FF problem?

Hi I am using firefox in arch linux 5.17.9-zen1-1-zen kernel and after the new firefox update I can't right click in firefox. Whenever I right click the context menu shows up for 1 sec and then it automatically takes me to the previous page. Click on the image automatically prompts me to download it although I don't want to download the image. Is there anything I can do to fix the issue ?

How to add the date of the site listed in History.

As it is there is the sidebar: History, then Name, Tags, Location, and Date but the column is empty, no date appears there.

When Firefox first runs, it works properly. All menus appear properly. At some point after use, a hour or so, all the menus stop appearing. The main menus, right click context menus, hamburger menu, all stop showing up. Even the pull-down menu on this website for "Which topic best describes your question" fails to appear, though I can select an answer by clicking on it and using he down arrow.

Hardware acceleration does not affect it. The problem occurs whether it is on or off. Nothing fixes it except shutting down and restarting Firefox, and that is only a temporary measure, as it inevitably happens again after some use. z

Updating graphics drivers does not fix it. It has been happening over the last three sets of Nvidia driver updates.

Sometimes the menus temporarily return, but soon go away again. They are gone far longer than their short returns.

Almost daily I get an intrusive update notice which is invasive and unacceptable.

If your browser is so flawed that updates are done daily (during most weeks) then you should just plain GIVE UP!

At least have the courtesy and brains to schedule this ever 2 to 4 weeks at most. Stop invading my privacy and get your act together!!!!

I noticed during a firmware download with the file extension .DAT that Firefox removed the extension. The file was not recognizable during an attempted firmware upgrade afterward. This is a new issue occurring sometime in the past several months, since last firmware update. Firefox preferences are set to download .DAT files. No other settings are listed for that file extension. I verified the issue points toward Firefox by checking the download with another web browser which completed the download with the extension.

I cannot log into my account on www.1688.com. Until recently I could easily log into my account using Firefox browser now it does not work on Firefox anymore I can still login on other browsers like safari and Google Chrome. When I'm trying to login on Safari I put in my account name and password but he just keeps asking for it again and again and doesn't login. What can do about that?

For some time now I've had an issue with navigation icons appearing as text and not the icon.

An example if this small screen shot under Google Calendar

Note the arrows to go left or right are missing and instead it savs NAV.

I'm having this appear other places as well.

Thanks

Firefox stopped opening links in web pages like secondlife:///app/region/Kings%20Stone/224/155/22 ,WHere do I tell Firefox what application to use to handle that kind of a link?
