Previously when I opened up Firefox it would go directly to my homepage. Now when I attempt to open it up I have to provide info and get permission on my cellphone. Why is this happening and how can I get it to work as it did before?

Despite the theoretically linked account, sync doesn't work, still everything looks newly installed. I'm tired of it, three years of using the browser went to the trash, I did everything from the guide, everything looks as it should, except that there is no my data, history, login nothing at all

I can't get Firefox to load paypal.com in a regular tab. The only true fix so far has been to open a private window and go to paypal there. I've been through all the fixes listed in the help section. Clearing the cookies helped for just one use, then that tactic quit working - messed with all the suggested settings, still won't work. I guess I can keep opening a private window, but I would really just like a fix for it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Dear Support,

I hope somebody can help me. I write concerning a piece of software called Privacy Eraser. This basically protects privacy, by deleting your own digital footprint.

On Privacy Eraser, there is a section called Browsers, which details all the browsers a user uses. I use Firefox, but it does not show using this piece of software. (It shows other browser's like Microsoft Edge, which I do not use.)

Am I doing something wrong here, or is Firefox just disguising itself on my machine, please?

yours Marek

EVERY TIME I CLOSE MY BROWSER FIREFOX CLOSES ALL MY TABS

WHENEVER i NEED TO CLOSE MY BROWSER FIREFOX ERASES ALL MY TABS. I MUST USE CCLEANER THAT USES THE QUESTION - THIS IS TAKING TOO LONG, DO YOU WANT TO FORCE CLOSE? (BECAUSE CCLEANER NEEDS TO CLOSE FIREFOX TO CLEAN COOKIES) AND THEN THAT WAY IS THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE ALL MY TABS BACK. BUT THERE ARE TIMES THAT TABS GET CLOSE SUDDENLY AND I LOOSE ALL MY TABS.

THIS MEANS THAT THE WAY FIREFOX CLOSES THE TABS IS FAR FROM GOOD, AND THEY CAUSE TO CLOSE ALL TABS, OR THEY JUST HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO IT RIGHT.

DO YOU KNOW ANY WAY TO CONTACT MOZILLA OR FIREFOX TO REPORT THE PROBLEM? IT IS A SHAME THAT A BROWSER DOES NOT OFFER FREE TECH SUPPORT- AND I CANNOT EVEN TELL THEM!!

Greetings, I have a website for my small business and I do a newsletter for my customers. The newsletter includes links to my home page, which is a fully qualified domain, https://www.prettypennydesigns.net/ When I check my newsletter, the link to my website goes to Firefox's home page. Can anyone tell me why this is happening? I also have a link to my contact page and that link does work. Thank you so much for any help!

A few weeks ago, as a long time FF user, I noticed that my favourite radio program which I listen to religiously pn Saturday nights, Holger Peterson's Blues Hour offered by CBC radio in Canada, would not load. I tried the next week and the same thing. And again the week after. FF has updated at least once and it still does not play the segments. I am currently running V.117 of FF. I have tried another windows laptop and it does not work either. But it does work on my mac running FF and El Capitan. Here is the link, maybe you can have a shot at fixing this. Sadly, the link work on Microsoft Edge. I am running Audio Equalizer on the Windows machines but it doesn't interfere with anything, including this show until FF stopped being able to play the show. I turned it off and the problem still persisted. https://mybrowseraddon.com/audio-equalizer.html Here is the link to the site that will not play. I've included a screen shot of the dialogue box that comes up. I wrote CBC and they told me they can play it on their browser, so they were no help. https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-154-saturday-night-blues-the-interviews Thanks, SweetDoug

Hi!

Starting today, whenever I switch context into a Firefox window it will freeze for 1 to 2 seconds, which is extremely annoying when multi-tasking. This happens either when switching from one Firefox window to another or when switching from another app into Firefox.

Happening on Firefox 117.0 64-bit, Windows 11 Insiders Build. As far as I have tested, doesn't occur when using other browsers like Edge.

Any help would be enormously appreciated.

Hi,

I am a long time Firefox users and promoter. Due to laptop theft I had to move to a new laptop WIN 11 and Firefox is v 117.0

When developing php pages the errors won't display. The same pages display the errors in Chrome (I know that's a bad word :)).

Is there a setting that I am missing in Firefox to display errors as it did on my old laptop??

Thanks,

John
