I am not able to get onto my secure message center in my febblue.org (Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance) page. I can log onto the home page, but the landing page for the secure message center hangs. The feature does work fine in other browsers such as Chrome. The URL for this, if this helps, is: https://custserv.fepblue.org/FIM/sps/FEPOCFED/saml20/logininitial?RequestBinding=HTTPPost&ResponseBinding=HTTPPost&Target=https://custserv.fepblue.org:443/fepesvc/inbox.do&NameIdFormat=email

Perhaps a bug in Firefox 86 and 87? That is when it became an issue.

Dear all Maybe, someone is able to help me out here:

We're supporting several companies with the following setup: User's are working with an office computer. However, they are also able to work from home via VPN and RDP. Folder redirection is enabled and directs to a network drive.

Since Firefox usually only updates while the application is running, we regularly face the issue where the Firefox profile wasn't able to load on the office PC because it was opened with a more actual version (the one from the Remote Desktop server) earlier.

Is there a way to update Firefox without launching the application first? Preferably from command line so it could become part of the logon script? All I found which looks helpful is the section "Service Command Line Parameters" in https://wiki.mozilla.org/Windows_Service_Silent_Update. However, I wasn't able to get it working so far.

Power went off yesterday for 30 seconds. Firefox no longer works in safe mode or any other mode. Spent last 3 hours trying every solution I could find to no avail.

Practically every solution offered by Mozilla tells you how to use the software itself to reset it. FIREFOX WON'T START !!! I can't click ABOUT:anything to see what is going on. I can't start safe mode - NOTHING.

Thousands of posts going back 7 years - SEVEN YEARS - show Mozilla has utterly failed to address this issue or even offer a solution when it happens.

At this point I am just trying to get back several hundred bookmarks stored there. How do I do that?

Hi everyone,

I'd like my new tab page to be a local html file (that uses .js scripts and local image files so I cannot use this add-on or that one).

A few versions of Firefox ago, the method described [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1251199|here] worked perfectly fine but it's not the case any more.

I'm using MacOS version 11.2.2 and the latest version of Firefox (87.0 64 bits).

Thanks in advance to anyone who will be able to provide help! Best, Léo

So i have old Bookmarks.

very old.

The Bookmarks file dated 2014. What version the Firefox was that generated that files i do not know.

If i import those .json files there are none Bookmarks imported.....

The new shiny fancy format is json packed with lz4. Can i deactivate this? I do not want compression! Bookmarks are text, text can be packed, but no not in modern times. Modern Times require speed not space. Or in other words: I want the bookmarks seachable with my editor.... I have space for a few TB for bookmarks.

SYSTEM SPECS: OS: Windows 7 System Type: 64-bit Operating System RAM: 2 GB Firefox Version: 87.0 (64-bit Installation)

I want to try the new Proton UI for Firefox. I followed all these steps: 1. Go to "about:config". 2. Search for "proton" and set the "browser.proton.enabled" from false to true. 3. Restart Firefox.

But that didn't work. Is the Proton UI no longer supported in Windows 7? Or some other problem...

This really makes the message a mess and is very confusing for people. How do I get rid of the HTML data which is supposed to be hidden?

Is having Enhanced Tracking Protection ON the same thing as having Firefox set to block known trackers? So if I turn OFF Enhanced Tracking Protection, Firefox will no longer be set to block known trackers?
