When I Sync into my Firefox account, i get ads at the beginning of YouTube videos despite having a ad blocker, when i sign out, no more ads. What is this? how do i stop it?

i like having my account Synced up, for all sorts of reasons and I shouldn't have to deal with ads that circumvents my ad blocker. I'm a old hat at this point at Firefox, i know how to use a ad blocker and I'm having no problems with any other browsers. i have a fresh install of Firefox, less then a month old on one PC.

I think what happen is, someone in the marketing department over their at Mozilla thought it would be a great idea, to do customized ads via Sync account, not realizing the mechanism of doing this, circumvents all ad blockers.

I'm willing to go into the about:config, if that's what it takes

Hope somebody has a solution!!!!!!

Thank you.

Hello,

There is a feature request I'd like to submit to Mozilla Firefox developers and I'm lost at where/how to actually achieve that.

Would you mind pointing me to the correct link/direction as to achieve this?

Thank you all for your feedback. Cheers.

Photoshop lets you set the color mode on JPGs to RGB or CMYK. I found when Firefox (Windows version 77.0.1 64-bit) renders a CMYK jpg, the colors are dramatically off compared to how Chrome and Edge render the same CMYK jpg. See attached image. Not sure if this is a bug or a feature but I thought I should report it anyway. Thanks!

After updating firefox saturday i was unable to access the internet. I kept getting a window saying, Failed to connect to a windows service. Windows could't connect to the Group Policy Client svc. This problem prevents standard users from signing in. My computer guy told me to un/reinstall firefox. When I did I lost all my bookmarks, toolbars, etc. He restored those and now when I try to login to my Earthlink homepage the address bar shows that it is NOT a secure connection. This happens also on Chrome. E/L said it was a browser problem and to contact Microsoft, which I don't really want to do.

I have rather abruptly lost all audio in Firefox 77 on Windows 10. YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Facebook videos - all silent.

Meanwhile, I'm getting sound as usual when viewing those things in Chrome (and I would really prefer not to have to go back to Chrome), and all sound from other sources is working correctly - games, iTunes, Spotify, etc.

Does Firefox hook into my system's audio functions in some unique way, different from everything else? I've recently started experimenting with doing my own music and video recording/editing, and I've tried out a number of different audio/video apps in an attempt to find the tools that suit me, and I'm starting to wonder if one of the apps I tried modified or overwrote whatever system hook that Firefox was using.

Strangely enough, the audio spontaneously started working again yesterday, a few hours after it stopped, and was still working today until I rebooted my machine. Then it was gone again.

I use university email for Firefox account, it goes like @smth.com. Recently they switched to outlook, therefore the email domain changed to @edu.smth.com, but I am still able to login into services with the old one. However, I forgot the password. Now Firefox is sending emails with verification code to the old email domain, but I only have access to the new one, so the email doesn't show. Is there any way to verify my identity and change the password without access to correct email (I did not set up secondary email, my bad)?

Upon updating to 77.0.1 my add-ons stopped working, including Facebook Container. The icons appear on the toolbar, but nothing happens when clicked. They all appear as "enabled" in the extension Manager. To solve this I found that I have to disable them all, then enable them again, without even exiting the manager. They will then work apparently fine until I close Firefox, then they all go back to being "disabled".

Also, I don't use tabs, I prefer opening separate windows. However, since the update I've found that if I open a second window, everything on the first window disappears, and the "go back one page" arrow is greyed out, so I have no option but to start all over and loose info.

If this is not solvable, is there a way I can go back to the previous version, which was working fine?

Thank you much!!

I can't load this site https://wx.ikitesurf.com/map#,,,1, it just keeps saying its loading, I've tried disabling all the plugins, blockers etc. to no avail. It loads fine using IE. I'm sure it an easy fix but can't find it. Thank you, Tom...

I want to know can someone hack Gmail accounts without logging in? I received mails from instagram that new login has been from new device with location from russia. another email few minutes after the first saying new login from iphone from bangladesh ,and third email that the password has been changed . The username which was mentioned is not created by me.someone used my email. also how does Instagram have my email address?As it might be I had a Instagram account which was created in 2019 and then deleted the app from my phone.I had only used it for few days. There is no direct complaint portal where such kind of incidents can be reported.all is automated which is dumb. I tried to complain but emails relies were to send a authenticated government ID which I should hold in my hands and send them a picture so they can authenticate and take action for the account. As I informed that the user ID is not the one which I have created why they should have my ID? but no response and same reply again. is there a dummy Instagram website?which we log in through the net instead of the app? is this a phising scam ? I changed the password and also put in new email address in the same account with the same username . I want to find out more and also alert those who might fall victim of such events. Please help if have more knowledge about it.

Microsoft has taken over my web site with new edge. I don't want it! How can I get back to where I was? You are asking for master password. Can't remember it. PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi. This message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window." is recurrent. It happened before, I don't remember exactly when, then stopped when a new version was installed. With the last version of Firefox, it returned. I tried all the suggestions available, namely the one in "support.mozilla.org", but with no success. I guess that this is related with something related with the new version, but it is only a guess. I have a laptop running Win 10, with a single installation. This error occurs essentially when I try to open links from Thunderbird (version, 68.9.0), but there are exceptions. A very few links open in Firefox without the error message. Any suggestions how to fix this issue? Thanks in advance.

I currently use Google as my search engine, and every time I use it I get a rash of unwanted advertising crap at the head (top) of the search results. I know I can update my "interests" preferences in Google to "target" the ads, but I want to get rid of these pesky nuisances altogether.

I was using Google SE on Firefox 77.0.1 for months, with any advert in results (always started with Wikipedia's article on search topic), but now there are intrusive ads results first.

Why?

I have a website...i have to go to microsoft edge to open my web page because when I open it with firefox there are errors immediately...and every single time...any suggestions? I've also had clients try to use my website and they are getting errors...but i open with edge and it opens fine every time....

Hello, firefox doesn't start maximized, i tried to click on icon and select Maximized. Or i tried to put command, after a target, didn't work either. Any ideas how to fix this ? Thanks!

I'm using Firefox with a mac with OSX El Capitan 10.11.6. I've used it for many years, with no problem accessing streaming radio and archived radio. Now, I'm beginning to not be able to have access. I'm wondering if I need to update to a newer version but am loathe to do so for fear of unintended consequences. Any ideas?
