Private Browsing does not allow logon connection to USAA.com (banking portal). I have to change my security settings down to Standard. Strict does not work. Vanguard and Schwab seem to work. Please fix this.

HTTPS://SECURE.SSA.GOV open okay but when go to next page to SIGN-IN, Firefox is blocking it as following/below. What the heck is going on blocking SSA Sign-In after main Website is already open ?!?!?!?!?!

After a recent update from Mozilla Firefox, I have these pop up windows that slide out from the bottom right of the screen of my laptop.

They stay there and interfere when I try to use the slider on the right hand side of the screen. Even inactivating my cursor. I have to click onto the pop up box to make it go away. Sometimes it takes me to a stupid article about Harry & Megan or some inane story.

How do I get rid of this? (I need step-by-step instructions please)

I'll NEVER upload another Mozilla Firefox update.

I might find another browser to use.

When is Firefox going to solve the "Text in certain web pages became invisible"? I have a long list of webpages that I have been collecting for a couple of years that have text that is invisible unless one uses Ctl-A to select all the text on the page. It's probably over 20 items long. The last one I found is unfortunately all the pages of an ebook that I have to read online using the publisher's ebook app that is not downloadable. It's a medical book with a lot of illustrations and charts. I gave up and opened the "hated" MS browser Edge.

I have the latest version of Firefox--"117.0 (64-bit)".

Hi, Various Sites (sometimes firefox as a whole) keep crashing regularly. I am running Arch Linux (6.4.12, default kernel) with Hyprland WM on an old i7-7700K with a Nvidia GTX980TI. Apart from Firefox the system runs stable. When doing research, or just browsing text based sites, firefox is also very stable, but on some sites like twitch, youtube, or idle games like "Antimatter Dimensions" (ivark.github.io) the browser (or page) crashes regularly. It also happens in Troubleshoot mode, also after a clean re-install (including deleting /.mozilla in /home) and since various versions over the last couple of month. The latest crash report ID is bp-67ed2673-4ed2-452b-bc63-dc1060230831. I know I'm running a niche system, but I really like my setup and apart from those crashes it's amazing, so I hope you can help and point me in the right direction as to what could cause the crashes. Thanks for your time. KR, rehajel

I have chosen a colorful garden theme for my new Firefox browser but now I can barely see my taskbar and any text above the taskbar. It is all very small and white. The main screen area below is white. I would prefer black thicker text for that area but don't see how to do that in any of the articles I have found. I don't want to make all my text bigger, just the Firefox specific headers. Can anyone help?

I have a PC desktop and laptop. Bookmarks have always been synced in the past. I have just been away for 6 weeks and added and changed many bookmarks on the laptop. I confess I do have a lot built up over the years. When I came back home I expected to sync as in the past without problem to the desktop. However sync wouldn't happen although both were ON and on same wi-fi. So I restored into the desktop a json file I had made on the laptop just before coming home. I also have a json file made on the desktop just before leaving.

Disaster. While all the bookmarks may be there on the desktop (I don't know) all the folders are now empty and all bookmarks are simply in one huge unusable list in the bookmarks menu. Same result with the desktop json file. It would take days to put them all back into folders one by one. Having tried various things now my laptop is the same !

Why did this happen ? How do I get the bookmarks back into all the folders ?

Using Firefox today I tried to search for various things using https://oceanhero.today/search.. I got this error message:

"Sorry, there was an error when rendering your search. We were notified and will try to resolve this issue as soon as possible."

But the search engine - which I've been using on Firefox for a long time without any problems - works fine on Bing.

Is there a remedy? Many thanks for any advice.

I just moved into a new Dell Laptop and downloaded the latest Firefox program and loaded it. I moved my Profile and all is good EXCEPT, the Home Page News Items listed on the previous Dell Laptop are gone. Running the same Virus Protection, I can't figure out how to get those news stories back. HELP!!

In windows 10, I got used to opening a new window in FF and then a "tab" for the new window would open in the taskbar. I could then switch between windows by clicking on these tabs on the taskbar. In windows 11, I can click on the FF icon in the taskbar and open a new window, but a tab for that new window no longer appears on the taskbar. Instead of the previous tabs on the taskbar for each new/open window, there is nothing. I have tried the suggestion, found in another thread, to use about:config to change to false the setting browser.taskbar.previews.enable, but there was no difference. Does someone know another approach, or is this a windows 11 "feature"?

Recently, firefox added an annoying feature that throws unwanted popups into my face: Website translation.

I want it gone. I can't seem to find any switch to get rid of that garbage in the preferences. I'm not scared of about:config but the best I could find was a list of languages to never translate.

How do I globally and eternally disable website translations?

I still have no idea why Mozilla took away the ability to limit Firefox process, or any of the customization that was Firefox's selling point to users, but multiprocess is a detriment, not a boon.

How can I limit the number of processes? I can't do anything else on my computer when Firefox is using 50% of my CPU processing, even with only a single tab open.

No, I don't need to remove add-ons; I tried going that route, and even with no addons at all, there was absolutely no improvement on how many processes and how huge those processes are. I've had Firefox processes exceed 50 Gb, even on a single website with no images and no scripting.

If there's no way to drop the number of processes Firefox always opens, from 12, to no more than 3, you're going to lose a user that formerly depended on Firefox for well over a decade.

Firefox is no longer what it was originally. It's unrecognizable as the single most customizable browser there was.
