recent firefox update can no longer copy and paste when creating a blog post in Squarespace, I have been using squarespace for around 15 years for my websites and I have never seen this issue, Firefox 15.1 installed and all of a sudden when trying to create a blog post in Squarespace, when I right click a text box pop up and it no longer says paste so I can no longer copy and paste text - this is more than a little annoying, you will not be surprised to know that I am now using Chrome to create my posts, there is no issue in chrome. I am a firefox geek! how can i solve this problem, I just did another update from Firefox, the issue remains I have been using computers for 40 year so I am not a novice but software glitches, I am lost

Win 10

As of today, this was the situation (image 1). I had to do a manual update.

Also, when I first visited here today, I was not logged in. I 'd like to stay logged in. Then, I couldn't have been here for more than 15 seconds, and this appeared. How can a session be expired when there was no session? Is this part of the reason I don't stay logged in?

Updated to FF 150 today on Win 11 desktop.

Q1: Can I remove Profiles from the FF toolbar which is located in between Bookmarks and Tools? Only need one profile on this PC. I tried to customize the toolbar but it won't let me drag Profiles off.

Q2: For some reason my FF profile is now on C: even though I had previously moved it to D: to free up space on C: boot drive.

So I created a new profile with exact same folder name on my D: drive today.

In Profile Manager, I renamed the old profile on C: to "name.old and the new one on D: to "name.new". I set name.new as the default profile and it works properly after exiting and restarting FF.

Now I want to delete the .old profile but FF won't left me, saying Can’t delete a profile that is linked to other profiles. There are only the .old and .new profiles listed. So how do I unlink .old so I can delete all of it to free up space on C: ?

wie kann ich den ad blocker bei firefox deaktivieren ? weil bei yahoo werden die eingabefelder fuer Bestätigungscodes nicht angezeigt und ich kann somit meine telefonnummer nicht verfizieren

I was able to use Firefox web browser earlier today, but after trying to log in to Facebook, which failed, my account was no longer accessible, I saw an indication that my account was not connected. Do I need to update my software for Firefox. I've been having difficulties logging in to Facebook.

Why is Firefox sending me email msg's saying to try the new firefox VPN when It doesn't seem to be available to me? It's not in the upper right corner as they state and it's not in the toolbar either which they also say it's suppose to be in!

Hi,

i can see all my previous tabs in history but can't reopen window?

I didn't close those tabs, one time i opened mozilla and they were all closed.

Help me, thank you

When Using fire fox it loads sites very slow if at all, and does not use correct passwords for the site selected. I use Norton Security and am operating on windows 11. When using Microsoft edge for the same it works fine. I've had firefox for years and have always updated it, but within the last week or so it seems to be getting worse and worse. Any Suggestions?

I cannot access any site on the internet, including all that I use normally like mail and newspaper sites, medical provider websites. Neither Firefox nor Safari work--I get the same error message on both. This doesn't happen with other isp providers, like a public computer in the library, just at home. Could there be a modem or isp provider problem at my home?

Greetings,

I'm using & viewing the most updated Firefox browser on a Windows 10 Pro (64 bit), desktop, 24" monitor screen.

With the current updates, the list of bookmarks in my Bookmarks Bar has become very small, skinny & overly spaced, hampering readability.

Though I have learned how to enlarge the bookmarks font size, using the "about:config" & updating the 'layout.css.devPixelsPerPx' attribute, the font still remains very skinny & overly spaced.

Is there an attribute that I can change to alter the Font Style (for example to "Semi-bold") & Spacing of the bookmarks list? If so, please be kind enough to describe the process & I'll give it a go.

If a Firefox Development Team member happens to be reading this post, I'd like to put in a request to add some Bookmarks Bar "FONT EDITING" tools accessible via the browser SETTINGS dialogue, to accommodate readability on ALL the various OS & computer form factors that have proliferated these days.

Thank you, Bruce

I'm running Win11, v25H2, os 26200.8524 on a Dell laptop. Firefox v151.0.3 (64-bit) is behaving a bit odd in that I can open a window, open maybe 2 or 3 tabs, close all but one down, and if I check Task Manager it'll show multiple Firefox apps open, sometimes as many as 20+, and the disk usage/storage is usually between 750MB and 1.2GB. I can see if I had multiple windows or tabs open that the number of apps in Task Mgr would be equal, but if I've only got one or two tabs open and Task Mgr shows I've got 23 open? I have gone into Firefox/Settings/Privacy and Security and selected "Never Remember History" so that if I click on History in the main menu bar it never asks me if I want to clear history, but it will show "Recently Closed Tabs" for whatever tabs I may have opened during that Firefox session. But again, if it shows I have 4 recently opened tabs, why would Task Mgr be showing 18 (for example) open instances?

I have not activated Firefox VPN, I have Enhanced Tracking Protection set to "Standard", I do not have A-I turned on, I don't usually use Private Windows, and I don't have any 'extensions' or 'add-ons' installed - I'm using pretty much the 'standard' Firefox installation. I have Norton 360 VPN installed but rarely turn it on. If this makes any difference, I did try out Privacy Badger about 3 months ago for about 2-3 weeks, but it got so odd that I uninstalled it. Interestingly/oddly enough, about half the websites I visit multiple times a week still give me a pop-up message saying "We see that you're using an ad-blocker, would you like to turn it off?" but I can't turn it off if there's nothing installed. To see if I could stop this 'phantom ad-blocker' I even went so far as to "refresh Firefox", but actually I'm getting more instances of websites telling me "turn off ad-blocker so we can make some money out of you!!!" since the refresh.

This is annoying, not life-threatening but since I've had other problems with low disk storage/ high usage, I try to keep an eye on it and Firefox using ~1GB of space doesn't help the situation. I had asked about Privacy Badger a couple weeks ago and the answer was pretty much "if it's uninstalled, it's not working"... so that was pretty much a dead end.

Ideas?

Hello, about 3 - 4 weeks ago I used my Yubikey to login to a secure site via Firefox. Yesterday I again tried to login to the same site using my Yubikey and failed. An error messaged appears as per the screen shot. I then tried another two browsers (Edge, Vivaldi) and succeeded in using both browsers to login using my Yubikey. I also was able to login to (using my Yubikey) the same site via Firefox on my laptop without issue. My two firefox apps are not linked in any way. Has anyone else had this issue and know of a way to fix the problem?

I manged to find and lose a reddit post that discussed the same problem. In the end the reddit author said it was a windows issue and fixed via the settings app in windows. I have tired this but this doesn't appear to work. Regardless I am also reaching out to the Windows community to see if they can help.

Thanks all.
