I have Firefox's New Tab set as my home page, since I'm choosing to divorce myself from political doomscrolling for the next four years. The New Tab page is perfect for having frequently visited sites at the top, Pocket stories I can curate in the middle, and what used to be a history of articles and sites I've read most recently in "Recent Activity" along the bottom. Within the last few days, "Recent Activity" has been blank, and will no longer keep track of articles I've recently read. I've tried clearing the browser history and cookies, and it came back for a moment, but quickly went back to being blank. And the major downside to clearing the browser is that my four rows of most frequently visited sites gets wiped clean also, and I have to spend time getting them back on the list. I do not have Firefox set to automatically clear history upon closing it. I've tried turning "Recent Activity" off and on with the page's Settings (cog in the bottom right corner). I'd really like to have this back, as it can help me find recently read content (especially Pocket content) easier than wading through the History log. Any help would be appreciated.

For whatever reason, when I open certain websites in Firefox, it shows the prices in UK currency including VAT, but when I open the same websites in Chrome, they show up in US currency. The Windows region setting and the VPN connection is the exact same for both. The difference is the browser.

Is there some setting in Firefox that makes it think I am in the UK, and if so, how do I change that?

Dear Support I have opted to use the Firefox browser mainly due to the provision of fixed “Bookmarks” on the left-hand side of the screen, not provided by others. However, I am experiencing lot of problems with Firefox , including: - Freezing pages - Images are not fully displayed - No internet connection at pick times - Hanging on certain pages - Delay opening various web pages - etc The above issues have become more prevalent recently forcing me to use Google Chrome. I have now learnt that when FireFox goes down due to one of the above issues, I have to switch to Google Chrome for access to the relevant pages and generally the WWW. I have no option but to abandon the failing FireFox, if the failures continue. Thanks Harry Elm London

Hi Firefox. Autofill doesnt work. I couldnt see it under settings - privacy - autofill. Then i reinstalled firefox and now it appears. I filled the form, so it has all my information, but it doesnt seem to shop when im trying to check out of a websop for example.

Hello,

I checked the troubleshoot and gave all the necesarry permissions on my Mac for Google Meet to use my screen (allowed audio, video and screen recording). Nevertheless, I cannot manage to share my screen on Google Meet. As shown in the screenshot, it offers the option to share my whole screen (I cannot select a window or a tab...) but for my audience neither this is working.

Could you please help me fix this?

Many thanks in advance!

I have loaded Messenger onto my new computer as well as Firefox. When I go to Messenger the Voice and Video icons at the top right are greyed and when hovering over the icons, I get a message that video calling etc is not supported. i had no trouble on my other computer but am not sure how to activate the video and voice options. Can you please help me solve this issue. Thank you

I seem to have tried everything to enabke me to access Microsoft365 but every time I try it ells me mo cookies are set to not alow it to be accessed

Is there a method that I haven'd discovered how to do it ?

Appreciate suggstions

I suddenly lost my Bookmarks Toolbar and all the bookmarks (485 bookmarks). I actually fixed the problem but wanted to share what happened. I did notice that my bookmarks were still on my iPhone and I was trying to be careful and not get them to sync with the desktop.

I tried restoring the bookmarks per the Support guidance and it would give an error when trying to restore them. I could probably repeat this if Tech Support is interesting in working with me to repeat the problem.

Today I found out what happened. In Norton 360 I had blocked Firefox from using the microphone and webcam. That's it! That caused the bookmarks toolbar to be empty and also I could not save a new bookmark.

I tried to find a setting somewhere in Norton that I might have changed a couple days ago because the problem started after I had made some changes although I had no idea what I did in Norton to cause that problem.

Today I was looking in settings or somewhere in Firefox and a window popped up saying I had the webcam and microphone disabled for Firefox. Is that ok? So I turned it off and the Bookmarks Toolbar magically showed up.

This makes NO logical sense at all that this setting caused the toolbars not to display or not to be able to add new bookmarks.

Thanks.

i need to copy and paste text that's also a link, but firefox isn't letting me highlight it, I can do it in chrome, brave, & opera, it's not a mouse problem either, if I just right click on the page and select "highlight all" FF wont highlight it, is there a setting for this or a extension I can download? (in the picture the the rad text is also a link, I need to copy the number portion)

Trying to open my doctor's patient portal and I get a "Secure connection failed" Page. So I start Google Chrome and the website comes up like a charm. You people NEED TO GET THIS CR*P FIXED soon. As much as I hate to, I will make Chrome my default browser if this stuff continues for much longer.

Am having trouble reliably accessing any site that uses Cloudflare.

No extensions are installed, no UA switching.

Have tried:

• Default settings as well as purposefully turning various settings "off", both with existing and brand new profiles.
• Disabling "Enhanced tracking protection", but it does appears to be hard-coded "on" as it appears as "Enabled" when any new site is visited, even even though about:protections clearly states "Enhanced Tracking Protection: OFF".
• Multiple DNS providers (Google -> 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4), (OpenDNS -> 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220), (Cloudflare -> 1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1)

The issue with Cloudflare is getting past its endless "Verify you are human" turnstyle checkbox. As stated above ETP is supposedly "off". Even went ahead and added "https://cloudflare.com" and "https://challenges.cloudflare.com" to the ETP exceptions list (which should be unneccesary as ETP is supposedly "off").

Though this ticket was a few years old, followed all steps from https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1273784 to no effect.

Double-checked:

Settings -> Privacy and Security: ETP -> Custom -> ALL unchecked (cookies, Tracking Content, Cryptominers, Known fingerprinters, Suspected fingerprinters) DNS over HTTPS -> Off

about:config: network.cookie.cookieBehavior -> 0 privacy.socialtracking.block_cookies.enabled => false privacy.trackingprotection.enabled privacy.trackingprotection.pbmode.enabled privacy.trackingprotection.cryptomining.enabled privacy.trackingprotection.fingerprinting.enabled

Going to any site and clicking the protection "Heart" icon still shows enhanced tracking protection to be "Enabled" (though it should not be). On any Cloudflare site, selecting "Disabled" immediately brings up the "Verify you are human" checkbox ad infinitum.

Just for fun, inspected a page a couple of times (the new serenity.ai search engine), clearing cookies & cache each time, noting the network tab via inspect. The only thing that appeared to change was the value of a cookie, and cloudflare's Ray ID. Two responses were in error, a 403 and a 401:

Had also reported this issue over at Cloudflare a while back; they were not very forthcoming as to why this behavior might be occurring. Often their own forum would get the endless turnstyle with FF.

Other browsers do not have this issue, and while I very much like Firefox, in recent releases it has become all but unusable where Cloudflare is concerned.

Please advise how to reliable get past Cloudflare's endless "Verify you are human" turnstyle.

Thanks!

Hello

When attempting to pay for online purchases the new firefox upgrade (Mac 133.0.3) will not redirect from the merchant to the payment site. Yesterday, before the upgrade, was no problem making credit card purchases online; now, nothing. Please advise on how to set up new firefox version to allow redirect to payment websites from merchant sites.

Thank you.

ver: 134.0.1 Windows 10 Pro I have Firefox set to open filetype PDF in Browser. Normally I use IDM which automatically download PDFs, unless I press ALT key while clicking DOWNLOAD button, then it does not, in order to allow Firefox to handle the PDF.

Firefox presently does nothing. With filetype setting set to Open in Browser, Firefox Does nothing. If settings are set to Ask, it does not ask. The PDF filename appears at bottom of screen momentarily.

ver: 115.19.0esr Windows 7 Utl 7601 The exact same behaviour was also seen on a Windows 7 system running Firefox 115.19.0esr. PDF is also set there to "Open in Firefox". Again, when ALT pressed when clicking Download button, Firefox does nothing.

I've noticed my GPU fan runs heavily as soon as I open Firefox, and with even just only one browser page open, it runs high speed, where it didn't use to do this. How can I get Firefox from requiring so much of my power. I don't want my electric bill higher just because of a browser. I have a decent GPU good for gaming quality that usually doesn't get clocked enough to cause the fan to turn on and run at high speed unless it's a high-graphics computer game or something. Anything I can do to make the browser demand less on my GPU?
