There are three accounts I have to use regularly to pay bills.

On one of them (PG&E), FF is useless. Can't even log in.

On the two others, banners come up that say FF is unsupported. Both still usable for the moment, But the future....

I fear FF is going to become unusable/irrelevant in my work-flow in the near-term future if the trend in my skewed sample continues.

I had a dedicated Firefox webpage popup yesterday that listed all my open tabs, tab history. I closed it before I noted the address and how I got there. I searched through my browsing history and I don't see it. I have never been able to access that page before. How do I bring it up again?

Thanks!

Hello, Does anyone else experiencing random firefox crashes ? It shuts off with no erros at random points. It started happening after recent update, where mozilla decided to remove the option that allowed to hide "list all tabs" which is moronic.. I updated my drivers to the latest. Today i decided to remove all my profiles with all data, created new profile, imported bookmarks, passwords. And its still crashing.. Report ID: bp-cc28903b-3d2b-40bf-b39d-46a6e0241011

Hello everybody, I am using Firefox/Zen Browser in Linux and having an issue which bothers me a lot.

I am using Firefox for PDF viewing and was not having this issue in Windows. I don't know why, Firefox changes locations of PDF every time with something temporary rather than it's original place and it makes impossible to see them without reopening it via clicking. Is there any possible solution for it? I am having this issue both in Firefox and Zen.

Hi there, since yesterday I'm dealing with numerous functionality issues when I use Mozilla Firefox on my laptop. I've noticed that the last update was on 29/10/2024, so that could be the problem. The problem is that when I browse the tabs are crashing and that happens almost every time I browse after a few minutes (sometimes seconds) and it happens with many different web sites. Since mozilla is the browser that I use most this is making my life real difficult. Thank you in advance, Sotiris

ups.com tracking services not working on Firefox

Hi!

What goes wrong with a simple tracking request on the UPS website? Try my actual case with the following link: https://www.ups.com/track?tracknum=1ZA06B736800244687&loc=fi_FI&requester=QUIC%2F/ The response in Finnish is always: "Emme voi suorittaa seurantapyyntöäsi tällä hetkellä. Yritä myöhemmin uudelleen." A quick and dirty translation is: "We cannot execute your request right now. Try again later".

This is an everlasting problem. But try the exactly same link on Chrome or Edge, and it works fine.

Best regards, Tom Lindeman Helsinki, Finland [edited email from public community support forum]

I have just installed "Opera" browser which I thought would allow me to install an App called "Marine Traffic" onto my computer. It seemed to make changes to my default browser which is Firefox, so I re-installed Firefox. Now when I click on Firefox it comes up with a search bar but it is not the usual search bar but a largely blank screen with just a search bar in the middle. It does come up with an option at the top for another search session and when I click on that it is the normal Firefox browser screen. Can I get rid of this first strange blank screen with search bar? Mark

Container tabs not confirming any more

I have been using container tabs to juggle my corporate and personal github accounts. Until very recently, clicking a link from another app (email, etc) would start to open a new tab and then pop up a dialog asking me to confirm which container to use (see first attachment).

Unfortunately, now when I click on links it just loads straight to my "OSS github" container, which naturally produces a 404 error because my personal github account doesn't have access to the corporate repo (see second attachment).

At first, I thought I had accidentally clicked the "remember my decision" box. But the confirmation dialog still works if I open a new tab and paste the link in the address bar. It just doesn't work when other apps try to open a link in Firefox.

Is the new behavior intentional? Or did something accidentally break?

Hi,\

Over the past week or so, my homepage refreshes intermittently and all of the time when I close tab. When I am on my homepage to read (MSN), I typically use the right click command to open the links in a new tab so I can keep the article in the homepage there. Every time I close the news tabs, the homepage refreshes. If I am just sitting on the homepage for few minutes, it auto-refreshes.

This does not happen on Edge or Chromium and I have been back to Firefox because I want more control over not having AI functions and Chromium still has serious limitations. But this is annoying. I have tried changing as many of the relevant settings in about:config that I could find to no avail. My PC an All-in-One 6 core Ryzen 7 with 16GB of RAM, which is far more than enough to handle the memory hog Firefox is (sometimes it eats nearly 2 gigs).

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Tom

duplicate of /questions/1476458 thread

This happened too much, like 6 times when using firefox in this month. I dont want to shut the program because I got unsaved notes in it. I was listening to music and it just began to play it non stop. and it dont respond.

please help, a million thanks!

I try to restart network or suspend the process nothing works. If I could make firefox reopen to it's original state+ cookies; no site reloaded and get back my incogico it would be much appreaciated.
