Forum zgromaźeństwa Firefox

On all my PC's, (Win 10 & 11) downloads go to the folder I specified even though "Always Ask" is checked. This results in hundreds of files (statements, receipts, documents of interest) that I have to then move to the correct folders and unimaginable congestion and chaos in the directory.

I (and many others) would really appreciate it if FF would give priority to fixing some of these longstanding glitches, rather than pushing unneccessary and unneeded glitz on us.

I've been using firefox for a little while- maybe three months now. I'm no expert on any of the config options. I run firefox using the built in VPN that my friend showed me how to enable, and I've been using it since. But now, as of roughly today, whenever I enable the VPN, no websites will load. At all. When I turn it off, they load instantly. But whenever I turn it on, it just gets stuck loading forever and ever, never actually getting anywhere. I tried enabling network.dns.disableIPv6 in the config page, because that's what I saw on a mozilla support page- nothing. Didn't do anything. The browser.ipprotection.enabled is still on, and I didn't change anything in settings. There was a firefox update very recently, but everything still worked with the VPN on. I just updated my computer, but I don't think that's it either because it wasn't loading things earlier today either. Not sure how to fix this. Please help?

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.

I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.

The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!

Server Not Found

Firefox can’t connect to the server at legalfolder.sce.com. What can you do about it?

   Check to make sure you’ve typed the website address correctly and try again in a few moments.
   Check your network connection.
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall).

FireFox Browser Crashing from Multiple Windows with Dual Monitors causing memory crashes in gnome.

google chrome used to have a brower extension called "The Great Suspender" to stop these crashes. If firefox can't figure this out I am not going to continue using firefox and go back to chrome.

Hi, On many financial sites I get comments like "We understand the importance of viewing your statements through online banking, we will be glad to assist. Upon reviewing your account, the reason why you are getting an error message is due to using Firefox web browser. Firefox is not compatible with our system, please use Google Chrome, Safari, or Microsoft edge. If you have any further questions please contact us."

We, you and I, know that Firefox is an excellent browser. We want to continue using it.

Who at Firefox has the authority to ask these sites, I could provide an example, how Firefox can rectify this so that we don't have to change browsers?

The browser color changed. It appears to have changed after a Windows 11 Update. Now the top part is a light lavender color except that on the right side it gradually changes to a slight orange tint. The bar on the left is also a light lavender color. As I recall the borders were a gray color before. Why did the colors change and how can I get the color back that I want?

Thanks

I often need to sign into a school system - Bassettusd.org - and they then require a sign-in email and password. I have used Firefox to sign into this system a thousand times with no issue. Today, I had an odd glitch where a Firefox window with about 8 tabs open suddenly shut down. None of the other Firefox windows I had shut down besides this one. I decided to re-start the Mac Laptop and try signing in again. This time I got the error message above. It also came with a long message with a time stamp and ID info. Long story short, I was no longer able to sign in to my account via Firefox. Fortunately, I could do it in Safari, but I'd like Firefox to work. First I deleted all the cache. That didn't help. Then I deleted Firefox entirely and re-downloaded it from the internet. (ver. 157.0.1) I STILL cannot

After the last Firefox update, I can no longer open download files (PDFs) from websites in Mac Default Viewer. I have tried the other settings such as open with Adobe, Ask, etc., but they continue to only open in the browser. For work, I download hundreds of documents from a county site, so having them open in my default viewer when I click the link was very useful for a productive work flow. I have tried to open files with my viewer from other sites, but it fails with those too. My tech team tried to help but seems to be a Firefox issue. Settings - Downloads - Files and Applications - PDF - Use Preview (or anything else) is not working. Firefox 157.01, Apple M2 Pro, Tahoe 26.6.2.

Context: In the customize sidebar section, if the "Vertical tabs" checkbox is checked, the vertical tabs can be switched between showing names and favicons, or just favicons. If, additionally, "Hide tabs and sidebar" is checked, then vertical tabs instead can be switched between showing names and favicons, or being completely hidden. (These settings are in the photo I uploaded)

The recent update seemed to add a feature I had been really wanting from vertical tabs. I could switch between all three states: favicons and names, just favicons, or completely hidden. I could do this by dragging the vertical tab pane smaller or bigger. A few days later, though, it stopped working, but I didn't change any settings (as far as I remember).

Is there any way to get the three-state vertical tabs back? They were really nice!

I'm getting this when trying to sign into mine and my fiance bank accounts why Secure Connection Failed

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.
