Can i allow public access to my Master music file on my PC with your VPN, or is this not a good idea ? I have taken months collating it, around 50GB of album ETC. All of which I have bought. I have a You-Tube premier subscription, which i am just exploring at the moment. It includes You-Tube Studio. I am an amateur music producer with some seriously nice kit & software etc, all for non commercial use, I would just like to share this resource ?? Is this possible? Is this safe ? Please kindly advise. Regards. Steve Hall Cambridge UK

Add-on Norton Password Manager normally works fine. It could be activated by entering a vault password or by request to an ios device for example. However since version 132 this has stopped working - there has been no update to Norton since it last worked.

If you try to open the add-on it simply comes up with a busy circle and never moves on from that.

Anyone else having same issue or is there a resolution?

(Still dont know why I let Firefox update automatically - for last year or so it keeps messing up existing stuff. My bad)

Hi,

The newest Firefox has an issue with properly parsing the javascript links in the ACS research journal articles. In these research articles, citations are clickable numbers in parenthesis. Clicking on them leads to a pop-up frame that gives detailed reference article information.

However, with the latest version of Firefox these citation links will only respond properly to the first click ever on the page. After you close the pop-up frame, any subsequent clicks on any of these links will have no response.

I attach an example article below. This bug has been repeated under Trouble Shoot Mode and I do not encounter the same issue with Chrome brower. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jacsau.2c00048

Hello community,

I couldn't find any information in google regarding my issue. I'm Polish and I'm using polish keyboard layout so when pressing ALT and a letter i get polish signs: ąłźć etc. But sometimes, only in firefox, CTRL starts to behaving strange, I can't use any shortcuts (CTRL+T, CTRL+C, CTRL+A etc) because CTRL starts to working like ALT and I get polish letters instead of selecting all text. ALT is still working like intended.

I don't know what triggers this and what makes it go away (it's not permament). When I started typing this it started to working correctly but it will return in some time. Im using 132.0 on Windows 11.

Hi! I'm running Linux Mint right now, but this also happened on Windows, I copied the profile from Windows so I suspect that is likely why.

When I go to about:logins, I see none of the accounts listed. Even when I input a search in the search box, nothing. I don't know what could be causing this. See attached screenshots. Don't worry, there's no concern of leaking account details, because they aren't showing up.

Greetings, I'm curious as to why, when working with passwords for websites and such, every time I click on one of the password entries I have saved in Firefox, which are many, when I back out it goes all the way back to the top instead of going back to where I was in the list like it should? Or at least like all others do... Also there is no date for when the entries were created like other browsers also have. In fact there's no other information at all nor is there a link to the site that the passwords are for. I find this very primative compared to other browsers.

I'm trying to clean things up in there as far as getting rid of old or duplicate entries because I've had a hard time logging into websites that I normally use because of the confusion with some of the entries. It seems like the old information is just bumped when I update passwords and this also seems like an issue that needs attention.
I don't experience these issues with either Chrome, Edge, or DDG however they are not quite ready to become my default browser as I've been using Firefox for a very long time compared to those ones and I have most of my saved info for all the sites I use with FF and trying to get any of the others up to where I am with FF would take a lot of work even with an automated import  to one of the others. 

On top of that I'm just more comfortable using FF because of how long I have been. I have some other issues I may have also posted about but it seems that my lack of fluffiness doesn't sit well with the fluffers who seem to respond with comments about how I word things and how much info I include, which is only meant to help someone who actually wants to help rather than critique my post structure and content and I don't understand why they even feel compelled to comment other than to be somewhat offensive with the intent to make it seem as though my posts are offensive.

In any sort of real world environment my posts would be totally acceptable and would get answers that were actually answers to my questions rather than rhetoric. If this one becomes more of the same with what I've just said, then possibly it will be time to do what I have to on order to become more familiar with a different browser and make it my default. 

I hope this will not be the case however I feel that I don't get proper support out of the communities and the actual Mozilla FF support seems to have vanished in lieu of this highly opinionated and subjectively oriented group of users, most of which have nothing to do with the development of the browser. I guess we will see...

Firefox is blocked by some websites, saying it is a bot, have you had this happen?


You have been blocked. Why? Something about the behaviour of the browser has caught our attention.

There are various possible explanations for this:

   You are browsing and clicking at a speed much faster than expected of a human being.
   Something is preventing JavaScript from working on your computer.
   There is a robot on the same network (IP XXX.XX.X.XXX) as you.

Hello,

My Websocket server recently started failing in Firefox. After some investigation it looks like the issues began in v130. The Websocker server works in all other browsers and in Firefox version <= 129. After much troubleshooting it seems like a change was made to the TLS negotiation when making a Websocket connection. I was able to temporarily solve the problem by forcing TLSv1.2 instead of negotiating the strongest TLS available. Was there a recent change to how TLS is negotiated when making a wss Websocket connection?

When I clear data of a site I expect it to only clear data of that site, but it clears all data of all sites under the top domain, which is unwanted behavior for me.

Is there any way how to clear data only from that specific subdomain without effecting the other subdomains?

I created a ticket for an app that it wouldn't keep my settings but it was not the app's fault. It was Firefox clearing data of that app when I cleared data of a totally unrelated app (but under the same top domain) which caused a lot of frustration to the team behind the app.
