Running - when open to run webtrading site, I got message - This page is slowing down Firefox. To speed up your browser stop this page. And stop button. And the webtrading site stops anyway. Could you help Please. Thank you, Frank

As I follow the instructions and get to the scan my PC bar code on the PC screen with my cell phone it causes the computer to respond which is only to give me an error that the PC is not paring or just sits on the same screen with nothing basically on it.

When I do a google search, say for a electric saw, I get list (obviously), If I click on the item a window opens on the right hand side of the screen in enlarged picture.... this has never happened before, to stop this I have tried altering the 'search suggestions' and doing a re-start all to no avail.

Is this a Google antic or is it a setting? Can anyone advise please?

Thank's Dave

I am trying to resolve an issue with my firefox browser for MAC OS. Everytime I close my screen to sleep and open it back up, the browser stays on time out mode. I have tried downloading the update, but it never seems to complete or fully initiate. I have gone to the mozilla website and downloading directly from there but the new download wont even let me log into my gmail.com using my biometrics. any ideas?

This 404 Not Found message only started happening about 4 weeks ago on my Imac. I can't search anything without getting this message. Very frustrating. and I have to go to Google and have no problems Any ideas? Mozilla/Firefox Program up to date

When I booted up Firefox today, I noticed a good chunk of my tabs were gone. They were nowhere in 'closed tabs' in History, nor in recently closed windows. In trying to restore them, I've now lost ALL of my open tabs with no clear way of getting them back. I have no idea what to do. 'Restore previous session' is not an option available to me.

No doubt I had something to do with the (fancy font uppercase in bold) B appearing in my Firefox header line as the first and left-most character (image attached). Anyone know the source for this and how to shut it and anything else it does off? I like many others I have read commenting about unwanted things thru the PC years that have a disdain of things that sneak through uninvited.

The other thing so far as I know had nothing to do with Mozilla or Firefox but I'll mention it in case someone has an idea. A product install by the same name permanently labeled an outboard drive with this label bold text'Roboform2Gobold text. I know how it got there, it was with the install the product by that name, which I uninstalled, and no one from that company would or couldn't tell me how to get rid of the relabeling it had done. Uninstalling the software didn't take it out, and no one in a general forum had any suggestions. I know the traditional approach of adding or changing a label, but change attempts don't affect this reminder of a poor product that I had decided not to keep. They refunded, but did not help with the changeless drive label.

Hello, Until recently, I was able to double tap the browser bar and have the window expand to fill the screen just short of "full screen" mode so I could still see the menu/task bar. I remember I did need to adjust settings for this somewhere but can no longer figure it out now that it is not functioning to this spec any more.

I did check about:config to see if "apz.allow_double_tap_zooming" was set to TRUE and it is, by following this suggestion below:

My locahost React JS development environment with Vite stopped working after the last update. When I run the development server on "http://localhost:5173/", the page never resolves. It work fine on my other machine. Is there some security setting prevent the page to load?

At some point in recent time I started encountering broken websites, and that "http" in their scripts seems like what's causing it. Full error text in the console: Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked an inline script (script-src-elem) from being executed because it violates the following directive: “script-src http: https:”

what I tried to do to fix this: 1. Disabling https-only mode in settings 2. Disabling all the enabled extensions 3. Tried disabling "enhanced tracking protection" for pages with the errors; and also tried switching tracking protection from strict to standard in the settings 4. Tried checking problematic pages in a new fresh Firefox profile, and they do work there seemingly fine. But I would like to fix the issue for my current profile and understand what's causing it.

Whenever i open a page i get a translated version of it, i have to click on the original url button to get the page without the translation. Anyone knows how to deactivated or remove it? I don't have a google translate widget or smh like that.

Hi! I had the experimental feature auto picture-in-picture when switching off a video tab enabled, and I liked it most of the time, but occasionally I'd like to continue playing the video while browsing in a different tab but not have the picture-in-picture popup. Is there a way to close the popup but continue playing the video in the hidden tab?

From what I can tell the close button always stops the video and the to tab button doesn't have any way of switching off the tab with an active video without the popup coming back.

Thanks, David

I just updated my Firefox app and it rearranged all my bookmarks. I would love to go in and resort them back to how they were before, but the only options I have on mobile are automatic sorting of alphabetical or chronological. I don't know if the manual sorting option was removed, but if it hasn't I'd like to know how to acess it. Thank you!

My Mac shut down unexpectedly. Upon rebooting the newest version of Firefox - 138.0.1 was installed. All of my bookmarks have disappeared. I tried to restore from a backup but when I hit restore in the manage bookmarks window it says "choose file" but it lists no files to choose from. I found multiple backup files by accessing my Firefox profile via finder. However when I try to open them with Firefox it displays a blank page and nothing in the bookmarks tab. Is it possible that the bookmark files have also been deleted from the backups as well? If not, how do I transfer these files to the active bookmark tab in the menu bar other than using the restore function which offers no files to choose from?

I am experiencing an issue with the Keeper browser extension on Mozilla Firefox. Despite configuring all related settings appropriately, the extension consistently locks out every time I close the browser.

To troubleshoot, I have:

Verified that the extension is enabled and fully allowed in Firefox’s Extension settings.

Ensured that Keeper is whitelisted in every possible relevant setting within the browser.

Checked that the "stay logged in" or persistent session options are correctly set within Keeper’s own configuration.

Confirmed that no conflicting privacy settings or third-party add-ons are interfering with the extension's functionality.

Despite these measures, the extension does not retain its logged-in state upon browser closure. This behavior suggests a persistent session issue not aligned with the user-side configuration.

I would appreciate guidance on how to resolve this.
