How to turn off private browsing mode in Firefox on ipad? How was it turned on? I did not intend to turn it on. I want for it not to turn on automatically.

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

I am on v100 on iOS (iPad and iPhone). I noticed that in the Recently Visited list on a homepage I can see history from my private browsing included. It's really worrying as I don't see those items in the browsing history.

Regards,

Ben

Trying to use a virtual terminal for my credit card processing for my business but firefox is not giving access to share location to the site even after I have manually allowed location sharing. This is the message I receive when I try to use the terminal: Sorry, we can’t load Virtual Terminal. We couldn't access your location. To use Virtual Terminal, allow Clover dashboard to know your location on your browser, then refresh the page How do I get this corrected?

Does Firefox have an app, setting, or a different browser than Firefox in Private Browsing mode that allows me not to be tracked and having no or minimal ads while surfing? Firefox in Private Browsing mode has too many ads taking up a lot of space on my smartphone’s screen. I don’t want to have loads of cookies, and web caches after surfing, and don’t want to have to delete unknown cookies on my phone. I have tried Duck Duck Go, Safari with Adguard, Ghostery, Firefox in Private Browsing mode, etc on my iPhone, but still have tons of cookies and web caches, plus unknown cookies on the phone web history.

Thank you very much in advance!

Firefox is currently blocking my work website. This has never happened before so I can only assume that it is since the last update. I have gone into Firefox /Preferences/Privacy&Security to put an exception on the website so it is not blocked. It is sort of a two page/window log-in process. This is the first window where you enter your log-in details. It then uses an authenticator app on my phone as a verification that I am who I say I am: https://acaeronet.aircanada.ca/vdesk/webtop.eui?webtop=/Prod/AC_EMPLOYEES_FULL_POR_PROD&webtop_type=webtop_full Once I am verified, then it opens and I select aeronet, which then opens second page/window which allows me to access the sight. This is the window that opens but does not populate with information as if it is being blocked: https://aircanada.sharepoint.com/sites/aeronet/CookieRedirect/acaeronet.html?wa=wsignin1.0

Any suggestions as to how I can regain access to my work website? I've tried to upload screenshots of the web pages but they won't upload. Not a computer guy here so bear with me.

Compromised data: Passwords, Email addresses

I went to the Dashboard (clicked on the link which was below the message above and gave my password for my gmail account. I'm concerned I just revealed my password to someone posing as Firefox Monitor. I did this on my iphone.

Was this a legit warning from Firefox or have I just revealed my password to a bad actor?

Here is the contact info at the top of the email:
