Firefox-Hilfeforum

I use firefox as my browser and to operate my 3d printers web interface, on my local network

with firefox the data that the printers display is very slow to update, for example if i input a movement command of say 10mm firefox takes at least a few second to display the number that corresponds to the movement change, its definitely firefox as opening the very same machine and sending machine commands in any other browser does not result in a data lag.

I have a website kiskigarden.com, and I recently changed from being a forwarding, to pointing to the right spot on my server. The website works fine on edge and chrome, but it come up with the redirect still showing in the URL bar and causing a 404 situation.

I need to fix this for my client kiskigarden.com, not just on my computer, but on all computers that someone might be using a Firefox browser...

IS there a way to make firefox update it's indexing? Thank you!

Only in Firefox browser, I login to things like Facebook with my username and it says I don't exist with that username. Multiple good accounts are doing this. I open Explorer and the same account works with the same password. Open on phone works beautifully.

Had reinstalled Firefox after harddrive repaced. But it was doing it. Refreshed Firefox. Thought it would solve. Didn't.

Help.

I'm running on a Mac with current OS and default settings for Firefox. However, many websites -- and here I'm talking standard corporate stuff in US English -- are substituting a y with an umlaut for "fi". It's not happening in for all, but it's happening a lot.

Please see attached. No matter how many times I correctly typed "Office", it rendered as pictured. I also see this with downloaded HTML, i.e. not just me entering it, just the simple rendering of a webpage.

Any thoughts on what might be the issue are much appreciated.

Hi, I have setted the option to clean search and downloads history when I close firefox (I didn't set the option to clean cache), but it also cleans the cached icons in homepage, so when I open the browser all icons appear blank, till firefox manages to download all of them.

Any solution? I think this is a bug, but maybe someone has a workaround, I tried to use localy downloaded icons but it's forbidden.

First. I was unable to view the daily broadcast @democracynow.org

Next, I have been unable to login to multiple sites including, Lowes.com, samsclub.com, my synchrony.com/home

I have tried logging in with and without my Torguard vpn service, with all extensions disabled and enabled, logging in with the VPN active has been pretty common with bank sites especially, but until now, turning off the VPN restored access.

And what really pisses me off is that they all work with edge which i do not like to use and now I'm forced to.

Please let me know why this happening and how to fix it.

When typing in a URL (for example www.google.com) and pressing enter, Firefox automatically sends me to a specific page on the website that I've visited before (for example, www.google.com/search/12345). I am making sure that it is not auto-filling a suggested URL before hitting enter, it is just the basic URL. I tried deleting cookies for that website and clearing the Firefox suggestions using the arrow keys and shift + Delete and it is still automatically sending me to a different page on that website. I also tried the same thing in an incognito browser and it does the same. If anyone has any ideas it'd be appreciated. It's not a big hassle but I just want to figure it out more than anything.

I love the containers and have been using it for a long time already, but one thing that I couldn't find a solution is to have two URL's within the same domain to "always open" in different containers.

I do have other examples, but the basic ones is github and azure devops.

I have my own place and my company one, they have the same domain but different logins (GitHub not quite, but it has a second authentication on top of it for the enterprise one), basically it happens like that:

Company: https://dev.azure.com/CompanyName Persona: https://dev.azure.com/Mine

When I set to always open in a container for each of them, both goes to the same container, which is annoying because I have a different login for each of them, for GitHub is kinda similar, I do use my personal github account for my companies one as well, but for my companies organization there is AAD integration and so I need to have it authentication with the AAD on top of my regular login, and "my companies container" is the only one already authenticated there.

Hello,

My Apple ID got compromised - someone logged in to my Apple online store account, placed an order with the credit card associated with the account, and actually picked up the order in an Apple store.

An Apple remote adviser has spent a considerable amount of time with me over the phone trying to identify how my Apple account was possibly compromised. Going through the Apps and browser add-ons on my computer (MacOS Ventura) , he concluded that likely, my Apple password was stolen through the Awesome Screenshot Firefox browser add-on.

I would like to ask your opinion whether you think it is possible that this would be the case.

Further info

• I haven't actually used the given add-on for long time
• I have an active ESET firewall on my computer. After the incident, I ran a full scan, and the firewall didn't find anything.

Firefox crashes after granting permission to use my webcamera. I performed a complete refresh of profile and without installing any extensions or setting up Mozilla Sync I tested using this page https://webcamtests.com/ and everything works as expected.

I think installed my list of extensions that I use and tested again, everything worked.

I then enabled Mozilla Sync and tested again, immediate crash right after granting permissions with a TCC policy violation according to the crashreport.

I then tested in safemode with all extensions disabled and it still crashes. So it works before enabling Mozilla Sync, but not afterwards, so something in my sync is causing this EVEN when in safemode.

Starting this week, I can do only one search for a movie title on Metacritic.com. I get a 403 error from any attempt to do a subsequent search. I can get one more successful search if I first delete my Metacritic cookies from Firefox. But the problem repeats after any successful search.

Repeated searches work fine if I access Metacritic via Chrome. In case it matters, I'm running both browsers under Windows 10 on a desktop.

Can I tell Firefox not to accept cookies from Metacritic? Other ideas?

Hi there -

I just downloaded FireFox as my default browser on my new MacBook. Previously I was able to update the settings for how downloads behave. But I can't seem to find what I need now. Currently, when I download a file, FireFox ALSO opens it in a new tab...I don't want it to do that. I just want to download the file, but cannot find where to turn off its ability to also open the file in a new tab as I don't want it to do that.

Thank you for your help!
