Hi,

Since last week I am unable to properly use some websites that are failing due to CORS requests, but they were working before. Some examples are es.webuy.com or a local Jellyfin instance. After trying to enable/disable some settings that I thought could be related to the problem, like security levels, I ended up creating a new profile. In this new profile everything works, but as soon as I synchronize my Mozilla account, then these websites start failing again with CORS requests errors.

Any idea about what setting might it be the one causing problems? Or any idea about how can I debug/troubleshoot it myself?

Thanks!

I have two credit cards saved in Firefox 147.0.2. When a web site asks for my cc info, a yellow box opens identifying both cards. When I hover over one, the boxes are filled in in yellow. When I click on the card i wish to use, everything disappears and all of the boxes are blank and back to their original color.

I am on a MAC running Tahoe OS 26.2

What am I doing wrong?

Firstly, because, It is annoying to manually have set browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled and browser.tabs.groups.enabled to false every time when installing firefox.

Secondly, because this is not sufficient to restore the normal correct beaviour. Tabs cannot be detached despite browser.tabs.allowTabDetach being true.

FF 141.0 on FreeBSD, only extension is NoScript.

What needs to be done still so that tabs can be detached?

P.S.: Suggested long term solution: Introduce an option "Disable tab groups ENTIRELY, restore behaviour as it was before introduction of tab groups.".

Can't play Roblox Unblocked on the browser

Roblox was blocked on my device and I wanted to get it unblocked and play it on Infrexa with Firefox. I already followed steps mentioned on the official webpage: https://www.infrexa.com/now-gg-roblox-login-and-play-roblox-unblocked-on-your-browser so please don't advise similar troubleshooting methods.

Now I am able to play roblox but the problem is that when I play the Roblox through "Mozilla Firefox" it shows an error "Firefox is already running but is not responding" and then becomes unresponsive when pressing refresh button, the fan gets faster and device heats up with too much hanging. But when I open the Roblox through "Chrome" it comparatively works good and asks for login details and after redirection it allows me to play Roblox Unblocked without any issue. "Roblox unblocked" here simply means a technical sense, meaning “not crashing” or “free from software or network errors and or browser malfunction".

I have been using Firefox for a long time and my passwords and user ids are saved in the browser so I want to continue using "Firefox" as default browser but I am having the issue in playing roblox unblocked and other games through Firefox browser. I think the current issue that I have started facing is especially after a recent windows update.

I also tried many other gaming platforms like Official Roblox.com, Now.gg Roblox, easyfun.gg and web.cloudmoonapp.com but all of them faced same issues on Firefox while running ok on Chrome.

I am currently running Windows 11 (25H2 Licensed version). I want to play roblox unblocked on my device using Firefox (updated). My parents have already allowed me to play Roblox and I am playing it on my own device and internet connection. Please fix the browser issue and unblock Roblox for me. Please also check my browser version against Windows 11 compatibility if possible.

If you fix this issue for me, I will be grateful to you.

Not so much a question as an answer, but I don't have the time to get organised as a contributor. Every so often I get an email which presents as html code instead of the correct email, and I know from experience that the fix for a corrupted folder can take a long time to fully reload. The following fix for an INDIVIDUAL email works on Microsoft servers (outlook, hotmail, msn etc): 1 - note the date and time of the corrupted email 2 - using a browser log directly into your email service 3 - create folder, you could call it "repair" (if you haven't already done so) 4 - find the email in the inbox (the date and time will help) 5 - assuming the email on the server is OK, right-click and move it to the repair folder 6 - go back to Thunderbird, you should now have a repair folder containing the (hopefully uncorrupted) email (you might have to wait for it) 7 - right-click the email and move it to the inbox - it should replace the corrupted email.

Hi. So I've been having this issue where, I search something in google, it searches what I asked it to. Then I search again and it finds what I asked it to. The third time if I search again it'll go back to the first thing I tried to search as if i just pressed BACK twice. Something similar happens if I search for something, and then if I search the second thing and tap on the website and then press BACK, it'll go back to the first Google result I ssearched. It's been a few weeks this has been happening and the only thing that'll TEMPORARILY fix it is if I close firefox. If you need any more information I'd be happy to help you help me. Thank you!

Hi All:

I just got a new laptop and so I am getting everything set up the way that I like it. I have come across a problem with my sidebar though. I like to keep my bookmarks up all the time, but I want them to not be too wide and take up a lot of my screen. On this new computer, there's an addition 5 cms or so of white space at the far left of the tool bar. It had different buttons on it up at the top (one of them had something to do with AI) and a little gear down at the bottom of the space. I was able to remove all of the buttons up at the top, but I can't seem to hide the whole thing. I just want to see my bookmarks, without that extra customization sidebar. Is there a way to hide the spot highlighted in pink, but still have the bookmarks visible?

Before installing recent update (115.32.0 esr) I had no problems to print to Brother MFC-7360 printer or Save to PDF; now, neither of these selections will perform their function. I have tested the printer and can print a Windows Printer Test Page ; I can also print using Windows Reader. Please advise what I can do to correct this issue with the latest version of FireFox 115.32.0 esr. I even tried the "clear saved print settings" in the "more trouble shooting information" ; "printer"; "troubleshooting"; I don't think that did anything.

Thank you.
