Firefox-Hilfeforum

When deleting emails in my Outlook account n one of the firefox tabs, if I click a little too fast it suddenly opens a new window with the next email in the list. I have firefox set to open tabs, not new windows. And I cant see any setting that should be making it open a new window when clicking delete. Its never done this before till recently and its very annoying.

I use a web trading platform(PowerEtrade). When I am on my 15.6" laptop, windows 10, I have a nice fat slide bar. When I am on my 17.5" laptop(windows 11) the slide bar disappears and will only show when the cursor is over it and then it is raxor-thin. Is there a fix for this?

I've used Firefox for years on my iMac with its 5K display. The UI was fine. Today I had to delete and then re-install Firefox because the program had started crashing repeatedly. I lost a lot of bookmarks & tabs. Upon opening the new install, I saw that Firefox now shows a miniaturized UI that is very difficult to read. I refer to the UI elements (tabs, bookmarks bar, URL/search field), not the web pages themselves. As part of the installation, I went through all the settings, and I didn't see any controls for the sizes of UI elements. So I searched the internet and found many reports of similar problems over many years. I tried a few suggested changes to about:config settings. Nothing has worked. I am exasperated. What am I missing? Can anyone help?

As of last week, I have been unable to log into the PNC.com website (exact URL: https://www.pnc.com/en/personal-banking.html)

I am not sure exactly what the problem is but I have no trouble logging in if I use Microsoft EDGE. My belief is that the problem is specific to the FIREFOX browser.

Laptop System: OS: Windows 10 pro (64 bit) OS Version: - 22H2 OS Build - 19045.2728

Firefox version - 111.0 (64-bit)

1st scenario - Go to URL - https://www.pnc.com/en/personal-banking.html

• attempt to sign in with appropriate username and Password
• receive error message on screen

1. 1. It looks like you're experiencing problems logging in.
   2. You can try to fix this a few different ways.
   3. Log in through the PNC Mobile app
   4. Use a different browser or device
   5. Enable popups on your browser
   6. Don't use a VPN when you visit PNC websites
   7. Type in your User ID and password
   8. Clear your browser's cache or cookies
   9. If you still have trouble after taking these steps, please call the Customer Care center at 1-800-762-2035, and give this error code: CODE 18 - 104.231.43.48.

• I have attempted to clear my cache but it does not seem to have any affect on being able to log in.

Cache cleared by Clicking Tools>Settings > Privacy & Security > History > placed check mark in all boxes (Browsing & Download history, Active Logins, Form & Search history, Cookies, Cache) Data (Offline webite data)

If I then use the troubleshooting mode of Firefox, I am successful in being able to log on but only for this instance. To access Troubleshooting mode HELP > troubleshoot mode > I then receive a message "Your extensions, themes, and custom settings will be temporarily disabled." Do you wish to proceed? yes or no.

I have attempted to go into my setting on Firefox and "add" PNC as an allowable site

• Tools > Settings > Privacy & Security > Enhanced tracking protection > Manage exceptions > added https://PNC.com
• Tools > Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site data > Manage exceptions > added https://PNC.com
• Tools > Settings > Privacy & Security > HTTPS-Only Mode > this is set to "Don’t enable HTTPS-Only Mode"

Can anyone offer some advice on what might be occuring and what setting I can change to allow PNC once again to be accessible?

Thanks for any advice or suggestions in advance.

Hi. I was suddenly having unexpected problems to log in in a site (https://www.lanacion.com.ar/). So I updated FF but the problem persists. Then, I uninstalled FF, downloaded it again from the repository and installed again, but the problem persists. Then, I downloaded directly rom the Mozilla site, expand it in the desktop and double click the program icon. The program opened and I was able to log into the site I was trying to. Interesting enough, the browser opens a lot faster than when installed. My question is: everywhere on the web the response is "you have to install the program" or "the program is already installed in your distro", which is true in my case, but one day stopped to work properly. BUT I'm not installing it, and it works apparently well... ¿how can it be? Thanks in advance for your reply. -Enrique.

Firefox is showing all the time "The connection has timed out. The server at xxx.localhost is taking too long to respond." on loading or changing pages on localhost. When calling the same URL everything runs smoothly using Chrome.

Environment: Firefox 111.0.1 / Ubuntu 24.04 / Apache/2.4.56

Which settings can I change in Firefox in order to solve?

i tried changing any and all settings, clearing cache, using troubleshooting mode etc to no avail.

i use fedora 38 beta (it was also a problem on 37 stable) with ffmpeg installed.

i use biwarden, sponsorblock, ublock origin, stylus, google container, youtube shorts block and some custom css.

i am running a system with an i3 10105f, an rx 6600 and 16gb of ram.

firefox is installed with the version off of the firefox website.

reinstalling it worked briefly, but it broke again after a little bit of time.

i am sorry if i did not provide adequate information.

I have been using Sync to keep my data backed up for the last 3 months. I got a new computer and logged in expecting Sync would bring my data in. To my surprise, NOTHING! All my open tabs, all my book marks, history, saved passwords... GONE!

And I can't go to the old computer because it has been turned in.

Where is my data?

I often look up links/webpages on my phone and then transfer them to Firefox to view later. In the past, when I opened a link in firefox, then dragged the link to a specific folder on the Bookmarks toolbar, it would display the header of the link as the "name" of it. Now, when I transfer a link to a folder on the Bookmarks toolbar, it always sets the URL of the link as the "name" of the bookmark. How do I make it so that when I drag a link to the bookmarks toolbar it saves with the header rather than the URL.

If this helps, I'm using MacOS most of the time.

I've attached an image of what it's like now. The header names are before, the urls are after.

When I reinstalled firefox, I had a complete sync on my Tablet (chrome), and my phone (Android).

I signed in using Authy as the MPA. my account came back as blank. I thought wierd. Then signed in again to my phone, It was also blanked, even though it showed previous website visits than no longer were in the profile.

I know have one device (Chrome book). with a complete profile and book mark list, along with passwords etc. Dont wanna sync, as it will wipe that as well. How can I get it to populate correctly.

From Chrome to Android etc.

I'm having trouble with my laptop battery and my laptop completely died. I got it working again but now Firefox doesn't have my logins for some reason. The Profile folder showed logins.json, logins.json.corrupt, and logins-backup.json. I changed logins.json to logins-old.json and changed logins.json.corrupt to logins.json like I saw in many solutions but that does not work. It just becomes logins.json.corrupt again. I tried the same with Logins-backup.json but still just changed to corrupt. I refreshed firefox but still the same. I made a new profile and copied the file and tried to get it to work there but still changes back to corrupt every time. I'm Windows 8.1 so there is no Previous Versions tab in properties so I can't go back to a previous version of the file. Is there ajny way to fix this and get my passwords back?

on my account page under security - password lists an 18 character password. my password was actually only 8 characters, so i changed it and is now 9 characters but the only password listed is still the 18 character.

I'm no longer able to share multiple documents through Dotloop. For years if you click mutliple files a new button pops up that says share and allows you to send all that has been checked, as of today I can say that no longer happens. I tried in Edge and it still works fine. See attached images, one from Firefox the other Edge

A month ago I suddenly found that I was no longer able to open my ISP's webmail page. I got the security warning shown here. I had many conversations with my ISP's tech, who couldn't figure out what was going on. At the same time I was finding that one or two other websites were not working properly. I finally tracked down the cause to the DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials extension. When this was disabled, all the problems went away. Everything seemed fine until yesterday, when we had a brief power outage that caused my PC to restart while FF was in use. After this, when I started Firefox, I found that once again I was getting the security warning when I tried to open the webmail page (though none of problems I previously experienced with the other websites). The DDG extension is still disabled. I have of course tried deleting the cache with no effect, and this time I have even gone so far as to refresh FF, and finally uninstalled it and reinstalled it - TWICE. Nothing helps! I now suspect that this is being caused by something that remains in the registry, even after uninstalling and reinstalling. However, as I am not experienced with making changes to the registry and wouldn't know how to start, I need help with this. Could somebody please advise me as to what I should do?

I am trying to install Firefox on a new computer but I keep getting stuck on the confirmation code that is supposed to be sent to my email address. I have not received the code after several attempts. I have been waiting for about 30 minutes. I have checked my spam folder and I have added accounts@firefox.com as a safe sender. I have to get this installed soon so I need help right away. Thanks

How do I change my attachment opening settings in Gmail on Firefox? I could not do it yesterday, but not today. Also, other issues from early upgrades. quite aggravating!

I have been using Firefox as my preferred browser for years. Recently I notice that when using Outlook mail in web the paste option is gone when replying to an email. Everything works in Chrome and Edge correctly but not Firefox. I instead get a text toolbar and an option to insert an emoji. Note this is ONLY if I am replying to an email. In new emails I am able to use the file toolbar and paste from there. Any help would be appreciated as I would like to keep using Firefox. I have tried all the online remedies including clearing the cache to no avail.

So switched over to firefox from chrome recently and one feature I really liked on chrome was the fact that bookmarks that appeared on the browser toolbar also appeared on the drop down menu: both were mirrored. Unfortunately, these appear to be two distinct bookmark sections on firefox. See the attached photo: the horizontal bookmarks toolbar displays different bookmarks than the drop down bookmarks menu. Is there any way to make the two mirror each other without duplicating bookmarks?
