Φόρουμ υποστήριξης - Firefox

os = ubuntu 22.04 - 5.19.0-42-generic Mozilla Firefox 103.0.1 I am attempting to connect to a proxy that does not require a username and password, yet moz-proxy is continually asking for one. If I put any input in the prompts, it goes away, but if the machine is rebooted, the prompts begin again. How do I permanently stop firefox from asking for the username and password?

What is it about YouTubeTV in Firefox that breaks my ability to control playback? I can click with mouse, but shortcuts ("Play (k)", "Back 15 seconds (j)", or "Forward 15 seconds (l)") stop working repeatedly and I'm forced to go back to using my mouse (Wacom Intuos Pro M). This doesn't sound like a big deal until you're forced to watch an offensive "My Pillow" ad or worse, and I can't immediately stop the playback of these radicalized terrorists. Or if while watching a DVR recording, it stops allowing me to skip thru commercials, or pause playback without picking up my pen (mouse) to get back in control of the 'playback' features.

Strangely, this never happens on YouTube videos/content. Those same controls ('shortcuts') work fine there.

Hi

I'm having some confusion as to how to change what tabs are synced across to other devices under my account. I have my chosen tabs all pinned and I even have them saved as bookmarks that I've synced that I can load up in Chrome. However, when I go to the three horizontal lines button and clicking on my account name/email address, it's showing me tabs that are synced to one of my other devices (in this case, my laptop), but the tabs aren't quite right. There's a couple that are old now that I want removed. The double arrows showing me more extensions/options comes up with Synced Tabs, but they're also showing the same incorrect ones. Even when it synchronizes, it never changes anything.

What's the correct way of changing/removing tabs in Firefox and then syncing them?

Thanks

Hi all ,

i have one website which downloads the content (image/video/html) and save in localStorage also i have service worker who fetches those files.

while downloading the files from one url lets assume ( download.files.com) firefox downloads correctly , but when my service worker tries to fetch the html file from its own url ( url/content/files/downloadedHtml.html) its gives  404 not found , but when i open same url ( url/content/files/downloadedHtml.html) in second tab its giving 200OK. 

also in network tab it gives me "NS_BINDING_ERROR" .

Hi I'm having problems sending emails, with a constant message, as per the example posted here: SMTP error from remote server for RCPT TO command, host: devon-gov-uk.mail.protection.outlook.com (104.47.11.74) reason: 550 5.4.1 Recipient address rejected: Access denied. AS(201806281) [DB5EUR

I have problem with some websites, Firefox would flash white screen when I click between menu pages

1. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/onedrive/online-cloud-storage

Top menu bar, clicking back and forth with those menu links

1. https://www.ghacks.net/

Top menu bar, clicking back and forth with those menu links

1. https://mpv.io/manual/

Those 2 HTML links, click and press back then repeat

1. https://vndb.org/

NSFW, side menu, clicking back and forth with those menu links Footage, compare between Edge and Firefox:

1. Flash white, so maybe epilepsy warning
2. One of the sites is NSFW, but by default they're all hidden, some text may say "18+", etc, but no NSFW images were shown in the footage

https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmwlKvqIgGxK_Anfz5d4pnjOdLns This could be just Firefox default behavior, but it's a bit frustrating, I hope someone can help me with this.

Starting with Firefox 113 (on Debian Linux), every few days Yahoo mail stops working properly: I can read emails but hitting any action of them, like Reply, Move, Delete, does nothing at all.

I need to clear cookies to get this operational again. This doesn't happen on chrome on the same computer.

The only add on I have is an adblocker, disabled for yahoo mail. This problem also happens with enhanced tracker protection turned off.

The remote Windows host contains a web browser that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities. Description

The installed version of Firefox is affected by various security issues, some of which could lead to execution of arbitrary code on the affected host subject to the user's privileges.

Solution Upgrade to Mozilla 1.7.1 / Firefox 0.9.2 or later Upgrade to Mozilla 1.7.3 or later. Upgrade to Firefox 1.5.0.9 / 2.0.0.1 or later. Upgrade to Firefox 1.5.0.11 / 2.0.0.3 or later Upgrade to Firefox 1.5.0.10 / 2.0.0.2 or later Upgrade to Firefox 1.5.0.12 / 2.0.0.4 or later

Where are the patches/updates for this vulnerability located on the Mozilla homepage?

Hello! When I try to log into my Microsoft 365 Outlooks, I get the following message:

'Your browser is a bit unusual...

Try disabling ad blockers and other extensions, enabling javascript, using a different web browser or turning off your VPN.'

I did go in and turn off the ad blocker. I do not have a VPN, and I could not find anything about Javascript on the Preferences page.

Please let me know what to do so I can log into my email.

Thank you! Christine

I use the closed captions (CC) in YouTube videos with FireFox. Lately I have been seeing videos that seem to misbehave. At the very start of the video, ALL the captions display at once, one after the other. Then, as play continues there are no more captions. Most videos still show captions normally, that is, captions appearing only when the dialog matches them. But a few videos misbehave by showing all the captions at once. Here is one such video.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgqJ5wQF944

I noticed this misbehavior within the last month and assumed that the video was doing something peculiar with the timing of the captions. But when I use the YouTube Show Transcript option to display the captions and associated timing outside the video, the transcript looks quite reasonable.

One further oddity, if I take that same URL and load the video in a different browser, for example, Chrome, the captions are displayed normally.

I've included a screen shot of the video in YouTube showing all the captions displaying at once.

When I reopen the browser, it's just an empty new window. I am able to reopen them in "History" > "Recently closed windows", but it's extremely annoying to do this every time. Is there a way to fix it? It was fine like two weeks ago or so and my settings seem okay. I can't find the solution in similar posts here.

Firefox is Generating Error Messages. I use a password manager and know the correct ID and Password is being used. Twice recently, I have had to resort to Microsoft Edge to get around denial of access by Firefox. What do I need to do with Firefox to eliminate the denial of access of a website?

Storage seem to be broken in general, although the problem has morphed with my bad troubleshooting attempts. This problem started ~last week (or ~two months after I switched OS from Windows to Garuda Linux, a variant of Arch) and has progressively gotten worse.

Initial problem: Privacy Badger errors and says storage is broken. Putting `navigator.storage.estimate()` into PB's extension console leads to a quota of a large number, and a usage of 0. Pandora.com then logs me out, and doesn't allow me to log back in. Console reveals it's an indexedDB problem about storage quotas. Many websites are forgetting tokens - I'll log in, and then 15 minutes later, log in again. This happened on Discord, Fastmail, and this support forum (in fact, I couldn't log in on Firefox here. Had to use Chromium). Bitwarden's extension also errors, although this one doesn't directly mention storage and instead says that the sync is out of date directly after syncing. Alright. (If I had to guess, the sync process no longer can write to storage so it's stuck with an old sync).

OK, this is odd. I load back the profile directory I still have saved from the last machine. Still symptomatic. Maybe it's a permissions problem? I run `chmod -R 777 ~/.mozilla/firefox` and relaunch. Still symptomatic. I nuke my firefox directory entirely, reinstall firefox (switching to For Developers) in the process, reimport my bookmarks, and run chmod again. Still symptomatic. Alright.

Maybe it's a problem with my extensions. I really, really doubt that, but maybe. I restart into troubleshooting mode. The problem still exists, but when I go back my bookmarks and extensions are gone.

Problem as it stands now: Pandora.com still logs me out, but I can log back in. Sometimes. It just doesn't remember when I relaunch firefox. Along the way at some point, visiting about:support now shows nothing. As in, when I press "copy text to clipboard" this is the report I get back:

I see the error of "database or disk is full" - however, my disk is new (6 months old) and is literally 95% free space (see attached screenshot). I'm out of ideas, so hopefully someone else has more.

When watching something on Youtube and I click on the coloured download icon, I get to be able to click on the title of the video. A blue 1 appears in the download icon. When I click again, then click on the blue 1 to watch the download. Nothing happens. The window just sits there and states 'downloading', but it does not happen. This happened last year and you managed to fix it; now Youtube seem to have blocked downloading again. Geoffrey D Dean, Australia.
