Hello,

Usually both of my previously closed windows reopen without issue, but the data for both of them disappeared this time when I clicked on a zoom link after closing them. The link opened, but they didn't. I did the basic troubleshooting like checking my entire history (under "managed history") and looking in settings as well as following the instructions I found here at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1407584, but everything's gone. It's like they never existed in the first place. Has anyone else had this issue?

Also, about a couple of months ago, Firefox started forgetting my accounts and logging me out of them once I closed the window/the tabs reloaded. Not sure if this is due to my computer's own storage (RAM) or an update-related issue - I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

Any insight on either or both of these is greatly appreciated!

This has been a problem for me for a very long time, and I'm tired of having to use chrome every time there's an update to firefox.

The issue I have is that I will get the notification saying there's an update. I click the button to update now, the browser opens the auto download page and I get a not secure connection warning. The only work around I've found is to use chrome, and sometimes I can use the "other downloads".

I'm not running a VPN, or any other networking software on my pc. This is for the full program, not the windows store app.


Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to download.mozilla.org. The server uses key pinning (HPKP) but no trusted certificate chain could be constructed that matches the pinset. Key pinning violations cannot be overridden.

As a teacher, daily I use a web conferencing service called BigBlueButton by BlindSideNetworks.com. Everytime I use it I need to allow pop-ups. This is because it assigns a new website name to the webconference session. Please take a look at the attached screen shot. I'd like to be able to put a wildcard in the domain name so that any random variation that is assigned will allow pop-ups.

For about a year I have, several times, tried to use a link or a pop up that doesn't work in Firefox but can be accomplished in Safari. Today, I used a credit card to pay for something on the UFT.org website. It worked. I needed to make another purchase on the same website and page but I got a message that there was an error with my credit card info. I tried again. I tried another credit card. I signed out and back in and repeated everything and still got the same message. I copied the url, went to Safari, pasted the url, entered my info and was successful in making the payment. I am using Firefox 133.0.3. What might be happening to cause these problems?

When I open YouTube or tik tok in my Firefox browser and play a video, I want the video to stop playing as soon as I close the Firefox app. But when I open my running apps and swipe up to close Firefox, the videos keep playing every time. There is a a media controller for Firefox in my notifications that does not disappear and remains active after I close my Firefox app, I don't want that either; I want those specific things to stop as soon as I close my Firefox app. I do not want my browser to play a video after I have attempted to close the browser to stop the video.

I can't find any settings on the Firefox app about background playback. The only article I found on Mozilla about this feature cheerfully reports that videos will play in the background when you "minimize" the app, and it does not give any direction for how to opt out of this feature by changing the settings. Can someone help me figure this out ?.

Since version 134 of Firefox Android has been out, it crashes EVERY TIME when I try ot use the "back" gesture on my Xiaomi 14(i.e. swiping from right or left side of the screen) I tried Firefox 134, Iceraven 2.27 (also based on the same Gecko) - they act the same. In the same time I also have Waterfox, based in the previous version of Firefox 133, and it responds properly. I guess it is related to the latest version only. Here's the crash log:

For the last several weeks, Firefox has been prompting me to "Please enter primary password" multiple times per day or even per hour. If I do so, the dialog box goes away, only to come back again later. I'm finding this very frustrating.

Firefox does always prompt for this when I start it, as it has for many years.

I tried the recommended solution for a similar problem presented here but it didn't help.

This started some time after I updated from 130.0.1 to 133.0, but I have no idea whether the update is the cause.

Can anyone recommend what I can do to solve this or at least to investigate it further?
