I am confused. I'm an older guy. I don't use VPN. I have noticed that while I live near Kalispell, Montana (NorthEast MT). FireFox thinks that sometimes my PC is in the Seattle, WA area or the Phoenix, AZ area. I am tired of getting local ads for tires, hair salons, etc. in these states. How do I get FireFox to realize I am not in these states and to relocate me back to Montana?

I am using win 11

When I am using the Private Browsing feature of Firefox, and I search for something like a restaurant menu from Google, the browser is able to receive my location data and use it for the search query before Firefox shows the pop-up asking if Google can receive my location data. I'll note that I don't include my location in my initial query, just something like "[restaurant name] menu." I'm not sure if this is an issue with Firefox or whether Google itself is having this issue, but I'd like to avoid having my location data automatically given before I get the chance to object to it. My main two questions are:

• Why does this happen?
• Is there anything I can do on my end to prevent it?

Thank you for your time.

Hi, I've been trying to permanently allow (instead of the default Temporarily Allow) the Google Voice desktop browser permission to use my microphone and send notifications.

Whenever I open the Google Voice browser in the address bar, there is no option to have Firefox PERMANENTLY allow mic and notifications and REMEMBER THIS DECISION. When I go to into the Firefox settings under Privacy & Security -> Microphone, there are no websites listed in the box in order to allow access.

Is there a way to Permanently Allow the Google Voice website to use my microphone and send notifications and REMEMBER this decision?

Thank you for your advice! Lisa

Hi

I am new to firefox and i need to use a mic for some close captions i use. I went to the settings -> privacy & security -> Microphone but when i click on it, it only tells me sites that i can allow or block. Even when i am on the website with the allowed mic, I can enable the closed captions because firefox isnt allowing me use a mic. Is there a way to fix this because I have to still use chrome because of this and its really frustrating

bold text All I want to do is to allow websites to see my location. I am seek to purchase a new home and all the sites say that my location is blocked. When I go to Firefox settings, I cannot grant location access but have to list all web sites that want my location. When I attempt to list a website, I cannot. HELP.

A site tells me I need to add them in permissions for the camera and speakers, but since the site does not make an "electronic" request, it does not come up with a pop-up to add it, so I need to be able to add it manually, and I can't seem to find where to do that.

Firefox you can't X out the location services and it won't go away. It covers everything. I don't want to make a decision, I'll do it on my own terms when I feel like it.

Other competitors allow it, why not Firefox?

If you look at the attached image you will see a website address which is not able to proceed into the list below and then get authorised eg ALLOW or DENY. Please advise how I can achieve this required Permission.

In Firefox settings Privacy & Security Permissions I cannot enter the website details eg. https://realbridge.online/. This is entered on browsing line but will go into the area which enables the Allow Deny.

I previously accidentally removed notification permissions from discord. I'm trying to reanable them, but even when i enable the settings in discord firefox will not give me the popup to turn on notifications. when i click on the usual permissions tab myself it simply does not show the notifications option. they are not blocked in my firefox settings, and other sites like youtube and twitter work perfectly fine
