Forum der Gemeinschaft Firefox

The support search does not appear to support community forum questions in the "attention needed" state. Please reconsider this limitation, as these newer questions are more likely to be relevant to others arriving with the same question.

Very frustrating to search for something, have no results returned, write up the issue, and only then discover that three other people have reported the exact same problem. If "attention needed" results had appeared in the initial search, I could have found one and selected the "I have this problem, too" button, and then added any other relevant details to that discussion, keeping the conversation from scattering into multiple questions.

Incidentally, it is pretty obnoxious that there is no feedback mechanism for this forum site itself.

After the last update all my logins reset and cloudflare doesn't recognize me as human. I have history set to keep, the cookies and data is not selected to delete when the browser is closed but it does and i have passwords set to save. Is there another setting i can try, this is getting annoying and unable to continue schooling.

Is there a way to just paste a file with path for uploading. In the windows dialogue I can do that to bypass waiting, but in the linux dialogue 1. I really have to wait for all folder content to be shown (I just tried that on a network drive with a quarter million images) 2. I cannot just type paths that are hidden but I know they exist

I've noticed Firefox recently started pushing more dark patterns, sponsors, reticking previously unticked privacy and data sharing options, I assume this is all to increase Mozilla revenue?

So there is no longer any need for me to purchase any Mozilla products nor any reason for me to continue my donations to the foundation, as you have found a way to secure funds by other means.

Message received loud and clear, please let whoever is doing these changes they are having the desired effect.

How can you help? Provide a phone number for me to call a real person.

How can a large organization assume that NO PHONE support is an advantage ??? Is wise??? is mirrored by any other large organization in a successful manner? NO other large corp that I know has adopted with Mozilla-head-in-the-sand approach to support? The underlying logic, the underlying assumptions are insane.

Why not just sell Mozilla to someone or some corporation who can provide REAL service??

Why does Firefox produce this reply when I try to read a standard web page from CBS MARKETWATCH-->

Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information).

I wanted to write someone who actually works at Firefox with some feedback. It seems just as impossible to find out how to do that on Firefox on all the allegedly less-noble browsers. How is that being more accessible?

This is my first time using this support. I got an email from someone asking me a question. I replied ot the email but it came back, and I see it is a "no-reply@" email. How do I find this person to respond or where is my question & the thread housed here? I would think you would make it more obvious & easy to find.

Thankx, Judy

Hello Better Angels of the Internet;

Seeking advice regarding how to best use Firefox, I'm a novice (and old). I think I have a Mozilla account. Online security is my first priority. I have no Facebook, Instagram, TicToc or other. Email is as technical as I get. I have an Iphone. I text and Facetime. That's it! Appreciate any guidance- at your leisure.

Thanks, Gus

I most recently reported an issue in relevance to account verification using an email string in addition to 2FA App on mobile, my issue only resolved it's self after the system realized I verified the account without the email side of the equation. I'm now struggling to locate my original inquiry readily so as to add remarks and identify particularly what portion of the security mechanism doesn't like the security codes sent via email.

I hope this is the right place (I've chosen Accounts).

When I ask a question, e.g. this, on the right hand side there's a "Subscribe to feed" option with a feed link of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1492818/feed

When I insert that into my RSS reader, e.g. Feedbro on Firefox, the link isn't accepted.

How does this Subscribe to feed work? (Image attached.)

Thanks!

Apparently I sync'd from the wrong direction (machine) and my old MBP now has only one default container now. The dozen or so containers I had have disappeared. You need to be clearer in your directions and define the use cases. In my case I want to port over FF from an old MAC to a new MAC. This would include my settings, configuration history, folders, bookmarks, extensions, homepage, and my containers to a new MBP - so it looked like the old one. Eek I thought it would be smarter and see that the new MBP was a newer version and had no configuration. Now I have blown away the containers and have to remake them. I also notice now that my settings - home page, history are not the same yet so I will have to look into what is going on there.

I am disappointed with the way this is going. Your initial master sync should be clear, there is no way to see if it is done or running or completed the initial sync. Honestly, the master sync should be treated differently from intermittent syncs anyway. Now the containers on my old MBP are has changed to the original 5 or so default containers, all of my containers are definitely gone! I logged out of mozilla, since it is apparently breaking my good version of FF.

Please clear up the documentation and include the use case of porting to a new machine to include Containers.
