Forum der Gemeinschaft Firefox

I'm suddenly having to sign in to all my streaming/socials everytime I restart my PC or even update Firefox. It's annoying, and it's never happened until the last couple weeks. I have scoured the internet looking for a way to actually speak to a human being about this, to no avail. Does anyone have a phone number to an actual human being who can answer questions?

For some reason the first item when I open my browser is google. I do not use google-I can search my browser's history and see I do not use google. How do I get it removed? There is no reason for it to pop-up in my browser at all but there is absolutely no reason for it to be the top item whenever I open my browser. Why is it even there? I always use DuckDuckGo to search.

Please help me remove google from my browser. I have attached a screenshot with my browser showing google as the first item when I open it. This is getting so frustrating when I try to avoid google like the plague...the plague it is.

Thank you very much.

I have been setting up Passkeys to log in to the websites which allow them. But I have noticed on Paypal, they do not allow me to use passkey when using firefox, it only seems to allow chrome

Is there an issue with firefox which deems it not suitable for passkeys?

I noticed that sopmeone asked this question this time last year and it was advised that firefox is now able to create and store passkeys Paypal still dont seem to allow it?

Bonjour voici une extension totalement fausse a bute de récupére la seed pour accéder à au wallet voler votre argent la personne a aussi mis des faux avis l'extension trust wallet n'est que disponible sur chrome non sur mozila sur le site officiel https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/trust-application/reviews/?score=1

Buried in this announcement is the following statement:

"Meanwhile, new features like Tab Groups and enhanced bookmarks now provide built-in ways to manage reading lists easily."

Is this a yet to be announce new feature because as far as I can tell the bookmark implementation has not changed in years. However, I would welcome some "enhancements" as the current implementation is quite clunky.

Thoughts, anyone?

After the last update a couple days ago Firefox does not come up correctly. Search doesn't work. Duck Duck Go seems to be the default search engine and Google is missing from the selection list when the left mouse button is pushed. I really don't know how to describe the problem. It does come up in troubleshoot mode more-or-less correctly. Something odd happened during the update. A screen came up with some sort of message about having run into some sort of odd problem and that it would have to stop and restart the process, which it did. Hasn't worked properly since.

I'm on an older Macbook Pro with OS 10.12.6 My browser says it's up to date.

It seems that ever since I did a sync-up with another Macbook, glitches have appeared on this machine. One thing happening now is that some websites take forever to load in, and others won't load at all. With other sites there's no problem. I have a fiber optic connection. The speed test indicates that all is good. I did reboot recently.

I'm wondering if some sites are using advanced scripts that my older machine doesn't like, or perhaps recent updates from Firefox just don't work as well on this machine. Any suggestions??

Firefox updated this morning on my desktop (not this device) and still mid-afternoon my tabs are taking minutes to load and the LastPass extension is still grayed out, i.e. inoperable. This happens to some extent EVERY TIME IT UPDATES but this is the worst. Went out for a long lunch and still nothing works. I have things to do and have no browser! Windows 11 Home fully updated Dell Inspiron 3670 i5-8400. I’m *this close* to moving to an alternate browser but really like Mozilla and don’t want to. What can I do to fix this when it happens? I used to run Windows Update troubleshooter and it worked a lot of the time (no idea why) but it’s gone.
