Firefox-Hilfeforum

I am not able to play videos on the BBC website using Firefox. The videos won't even load (see screenshot). I deleted cache and cookies, but still no result. What should I do? Thanks. Edit: I have also tried on normal privacy settings.

I made a formate for the computer Then I installed a new copy of Firefox .. I logged into my account normally But it didn't sync and all my data I couldn't find

Is there a way to recover my data from within the Firefox account?

Hi Folks!

I'm located in the U.S.A. in the Denver, CO. area. I'm not using a VPN or any sort of IP masking technology, so my normal Comcast public IP address should be what's visible when I browse the web. Also the language is set to English-US in Firefox's settings.

Recently I noticed that when I try to login at GoDaddy, the GD website redirects me to the India version of their site (in.godaddy.com). I'm posting in this forum because this only happens when I go there in Firefox. If I use Chrome or Edge (i.e. Chrome rebranded) I get the U.S. version of the GD site. I've verified that my public IP, currently 98.43.226.196, is in fact registered to Comcast. I've cleared cookies and cache, restarted Firefox, but GD still sends Firefox to its India version. Does anyone have any idea why this may be happening?

Thanks!

Starting today, when I click on a video in Youtube using Firefox 88.0.1, the video will not start. When I click the start icon in the middle of the screen the page reloads and the video starts. Problem is when browsing you have to select a video and then when the video page loads you must start the video. When using the back button, you must go back two pages not one.

I’m in IT and regularly need to access HTTP addresses. That has now become impossible. No matter what I do Firefox’s address bar automatically defaults to HTTPS. I need to be able to do this regularly and without having to jump through a lot of hoops.

Until at least around 1 month ago it was possbile to open all tabs from another device's firefox. You could go to the Synced Tabs Sidebar, right-click the other device's name and click something named along the lines of "open all tabs".

When I tried to do this today, I noticed that the "normal" way to the Sync-menu via |||\ symbol doesn't work anymore and I at least found out that I could get there using via the firefox account. I can send a (single) tab to another device and I can see the list of the sync'ed tabs of a computer, but it is no longer possible to right-click that device's name and thereby getting to the "open all tabs" option.

After this was - seemingly? - patched out, is there any other way left to do this or was there any new way implemented?

thx

My Evernote web clipper stopped working last night, and multiple attempts to get it working, including help from Evernote support. The issue seems to be related to cookies in some way. I was wondering if anyone else was having any problems with Evernote. Access to the Evernote website is also being affected.

I've a public website, but people, when useing Furefox, can't see any PDF !!! It does however in Safari, Chrome & Opera. What to do? When will this problem be solved? How to knwo? Is there a workaround? This is one exampel of the many HTML statements allowing (normally) to view a PDF:

<a href="YinPDF/TenteraQuoi.pdf" target="_blank">« Tentera Quoi ?! »</a> of course this is called within livingtantra.be/YIN where the folder YinPDF is losated

i am trying to open ticket master (which i have done in the past on the same computer using firefox. the error message states: Pardon the Interruption As you were browsing something about your browser made us think you were a bot. There are a few reasons this might happen:

   You're a power user moving through this website with super-human speed.
   You've disabled JavaScript in your web browser
   A third-party browser plugin, such as Ghostery or NoScript is preventing JavaScript from running.

i checked and the javascript is true (so enabled) but nothing is working???????????

Hi everybody

For some time now, tabs from which I open a link in a new tab close themselves when I click on the link's cross. Example: In yahoo, I open an email with a video attached. I ask for the video to be played with VLC When I close VLC, the yahoo tab closes immediately.

It's all new, I haven't changed anything in my configuration or options.

Thanks for your help .

in this reference https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000063.htm#firefox it indicates that you can add, change or delete saved passwords by selecting the hamburger menu (3 parallel lines) followed by Preferences > Privacy and Security then navigate down to Forms and Autofill. However, in this version (FF 88.0.1 (64 bit) for Ubuntu), there is no such option listed.

I have some mistaken email addresses saved in the system (somewhere) which I would like to correct/delete as appropriate but am having an issue finding them.

Is there a hidden option somewhere in the system where I can access these to make the necessary amendments?

My money program uses an importer to download files directly (rather than saving to desktop & manually importing. The institutions' choices always include OFX, QFX, and QIF. The Application list in Options lists OFX -- in two places-- and QFX. Both are assigned to the importer.

No matter what format I choose, I have to browse for the importer (several clicks). To check, I downloaded account information for several accounts held with the same institution, cycling through those 3 formats. Same result each time. "Always do this" is checked and OFX and QFX are assigned to the importer as you can see in the screenshot.

Shouldn't FF be adding QIF when I download activity in that format? I certainly didn't add OFX or QFX manually! And can anyone explain why "Use importer" is broken?

TIA mm

Reddit comments textbox shows duplicate text after pasteing When creating a comment (new or reply), the input textbox shows duplicate text. So what ever is pasted, it appears twice. If I post the comment anyway, only one copy of the text appears in the posted comment. It only seems to happen if I paste more than one line of text so maybe the CRLF at the end of line one has something to do with it. See attached image.

I tried the same operation with Chrome, and it does not have this duplicate text problem. So I'm guessing it some problem with the input textbox implementation in firefox.

Is this a known problem? Anyone else seeing this?

firefox 88.0.1 (latest), windows 10 laptop

Hi, I have a website created through GODADDY. All of this shows OK in Firefox apart from the blogs. Just comes up with message "Posts coming soon!" Maybe in 2019 it was OK but sometime since then it happened.

With Safari & Chrome the blog page shows fine.

I have gone to Firefox history and cleared everything. Doesn't help.

I looked at Badger setting and tried to remove these, still doesn't work.

(I am also raising this with GODADDY .. it's a conversation!).

Anything else I can do?

All FYI,

The latest update from FireFox, on my Kubuntu 18.04 LTS server, disconnected and disabled all my networking, at least I thought so. Rebooting did not help! Running test I could not ping www.google.com, but found I could ping any direct IP, thus Google's DNS server: 8.8.8.8 would ping. Checking I found that the update had disabled dhclient, so re-installed dhclient then ran:

  dhclient <active port>

Used ifconfig to find the active port and now back to working.

Hate it when the developer idiots do not follow the legally mandated "Must Test" laws. Always causes problems when they do not follow the laws!

Cheers!

Utilizing Firefox 88.0.1 (64-bit) on a Dell Inspiron 15-3505 with Windows 10 Home Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042.

Unable to view livestreaming video, audio only. All other videos with a beginning and an end play normally.

Utilizing Microsoft Edge works! Brave does not. Haven't attempted Chrome yet.

The Firefox Android version works normally.

Any suggestions for this problem would be appreciated. Thank you!

Greetings,

Some type of update on Wednesday -- either Windows 10, Firefox or Evernote -- has caused the Evernote web clipper to stop working. However, it continues to work on Chrome.

Over the past two days, I have taken these steps.

1. Refreshed Firefox. 2. Uninstalled Evernote app from my computer. 3. Uninstalled Evernote extension on both Firefox and Chrome. 4. Cleaned the cache. 5. Checked for and installed all available updates on Windows, Firefox and Evernote. 6. Set Options > Privacy & Security > Enhanced Tracking Protection to Standard 7. Set Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data > Manage Exceptions and allowed cookies for http://www.evernote.com and https://evernote.com 6. Reinstalled all the other Firefox extensions without problems. 7. Reinstalled the Evernote app for Windows and the clipper app for Chrome without problem.

Yet, every time I try to add the Evernote web clipper back to Firefox, it gets stuck on the permissions screen. It will not allow the Allow button to be clicked. The Evernote icon appears in the tool bar, but is dead. Even after restarting Firefox, the clicking on the icon does nothing.

What am I missing? Thanks!
