I'm still using Windows 7. When I try to set up a GoogleGroup using Firefox and check "I am not a robot" it just spins and after 15 seconds or so just goes nowhere. But when I use Chrome, I have no problem being approved by Captcha. How can I fix it so that I can do the same via FireFox?

I use -url argument for launching Firefox with two tabs.

How can I specify the container for each tab?

Ex. firefox -url "https://web.whatsapp.com/"-url "https://web.whatsapp.com/" The first tab belongs to 1st Whatsapp account While the 2nd belongs for another one

- I use Multi-Account Containers - Firefox 108.0.1 (64-bit) - Linux Mint 21.1 Xfce

I have the latest version of Firefox for Windows. In the upper right corner next to Sign In is a bell which is for notifications. I want to permanently disable the notifications. At the present, I can click on the bell, select setting and toggle the notifications to Off. However, this is not permanent. If I close Firefox and open it again, notifications are once again enabled and I have to repeat to disable. How do I disable permanently?

This is why I have not used Firefox. I try it and have issues accessing sites. I went to hulu.com enter id and password and got this: 502 Bad Gateway nginx.

Tried it with google and no problem

Hi there,

I am using gmail as my default email client, so that when I click on a mailto link from anywhere, the system (macos Monterey 12.5.1) passes the link to my default browser (Firefox 108.0.1). This used to work just fine until today: now the tab opens as usual, load gmail, I can glimpse at an email with the correct recipient but the tab closes straight away, without giving me any opportunity to interact. I found a very similar post from half a year ago: Clicking on a "mailto" link opens a new tab then automatically closes immediately, but as far as I understand the solution was to restart the computer (which I tried...). I could not find any other lead... Any idea?

With thanks and best regards

I cannot access one particular website. Either error message 'timed out' OR 'problem loading page' appears. I have tried refreshing Firefox, and clearing cache. I cannot connect to the site on Edge either. The website is: https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/prefaces/toc Others who have posted this problem said it started with latest Firefox update (which I have). Finally, I tried reaching the site NOT using the saved, Bookmark Toolbar. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Firefox 108.0.1 on Windows 10 X64 Pro

I'm seeing some very weird behavior and want to know how to troubleshoot it.

A specific website (pfSense admin) sends a form to edit some parameters. The form contains input fields like

   <input class="form-control" name="mac" id="mac" type="text" value="a4:bb:6d:e3:46:da" placeholder="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx">

What I see in my Firefox instance is that the value is missing. Examining the source it looks like this:

   <input class="form-control" name="mac" id="mac" type="text" placeholder="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx">

The `value=` attribute has been surgically excised.

What I have done:

• Accessed the same website in MSEdge - The values are present
• Dumped the page source from both MSEdge and Firefox and compared them. Apart from a couple of expected differences (CSRF token), the resulting HTML is identical except for the missing `value=` attribute.
• Started Firefox in Safe Mode - Same problem
• Examined the data stream in the Network tab of the developer tools - The `value=`attribute is missing even this early in the process.

Finally I created a completely new Firefox profile, and voilà, it works.

So the question is what setting in my default profile could possibly have the effect of making that single specific change to the data stream? Based on the Network trace, whatever is doing this is occurring extremely early in page processing.

How do I troubleshoot this?

When I try to play Netflix from my Macbook and onto to my smart TV via my Apple TV device, I find that I can hear the sound but cannot see any picture. The set-up used to work fine until I up-dated to the latest version of the Firefox browser and then the picture disappeared. I have a second Macbook on which I'm running an older version of Firefox (from April'22) and this is still working fine with Netflix/Apple TV connection etc., i.e. picture and sound working well. Has anyone else had this issue.

Btw, I can have both picture and sound on my Macbook screen if I don't connect to Apple TV even when using the latest Firefox version!

Hello Community,

I recently had all of my addons disabled, and I think when that happened, it also caused all of my browsing history to no longer show. I didn't realize this until i reinstalled some of my disabled addons. I was wondering if someone could go through with me an easy way to restore my history and addons? I did some searching beforehand, and I currently have 2 profiles, and for the more recently edited profile, there is a corrupted places file. I was wondering if someone could explain what I should be doing to be able to restore as much of my old history as possible? Thanks! I attached what the corrupted places file looks like, and what the disabled apps section looks like.

Every time I use the developer tools, as soon as a suggestion is shown, it blocks the complete UI and I cannot do anything anymore. Only closing Firefox and restarting makes it go away.

See also the image for an example, in that case I inspect an HTML element, try to add a CSS property, but once I type something, Firefox shows the suggested properties and from that moment on the UI is blocked. The suggestions don't go away anymore, I cannot click on any buttons, I cannot change tabs, nothing. The mouse over works, because I see tabs highlighting when I move the mouse, but nothing happens on a click.

This also happens in the other tabs of the tools. For example in the network tab, when I hover over a picture and it shows a thumbnail, it also freezes the UI.

This is on MacOS 12.5.1, FF 108.0.1 and with all extensions and plug ins disabled.

I just downloaded firefox, I switched from chrome now that the new anti-adblock update is coming out. As such I'm trying to used to the new browser and set it up to my preferences.

So far I've had some problems, and I'd be thankful for any help I could get.

Firstly, when zoomed in using application menu, the scroll does not adjust the amount scrolled. For example, let's say the standard lines scrolled when i scroll with my mouse is 4. It's still 4 when zoomed in, as if I was still at 100%. This makes it scroll further down than needed, and to a person who likes to read, bothering. I presume there is an solution to this, as this doesn't happen on chrome for me. I tried checking out about:config and change mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_y from 100 to somewhat lower.

This made all scrolling way too slow, even if only slightly lowered. And the amount scrolled normally isn't the problem, the problem is the amount scrolled does not adjust when zoomed in, still scrolling as if I was on 100% zoom instead of 250% zoom.

Second question, is there a way to change the default zoom percentages. Instead of 100-110-120-150 ect... to 100-120-150-175-200-225-250 and so on.

Thirdly does firefox automatically have tabs sleep when not in use to save ram. If not, where would I activate it?

Thank you for any answers, it's very appreciated.

Hi, every time I open Firefox on a Mac I get a dialog asking me to "Finish installing Firefox", which will apparently add Firefox to /Applications and Dock.

The sysadmin who manages my Mac asked me to install Firefox into /Users/<user>/Applications instead of /Applications, and I do not have permission to install anything into /Applications anyway, so I cannot finish the installation. I already put Firefox into my Dock manually, so I don't need this dialog to do it for me.

The update window also says "This update requires administrator privileges", which should not be needed to update an app in /Users/<users>/Applications, but it looks like Firefox is trying to install updates into /Applications and failing because it does not have permission.

Is there any way to get rid of this dialog, and have Firefox work from /Users/<user>/Applications? Thanks.

Hi dear Thanks a lot for Mozilla Firefox I want to disable check certificate in firefox and do not shwoing (your connection is not secure) in my browser and just show the website without ask any question. I do not know how to do it in firefox. Please help me.

Hi I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem. I've set it so that FF asks me if I want to close all tabs when I close a window or exit. This is to restore pages when I restart next. What I've noticed is, this number of tabs in the question only keeps increasing -for example, if I have 50 tabs open, close 10 of them during a browsing session and open 20 more, when I go to exit, it'll ask me if I want to close 80 tabs. And when I start up FF next time, that number 80 just keeps increasing when I open/close tabs. It doesn't seem to be refreshing the 'tab memory'. There needs to be a button perhaps that purges that tab cache and takes a fresh 'reading' of all current tabs open and updating the total number.

Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks
