Firefox Support Forum

An error reoccurs in the Windows 10 Event Log every 15 minutes. What could be causing this?

Details: Source: DNS Client Events Event: 1014 Level: Warning User: NETWORK SERVICE General Details: Name resolution for the name autopush.prod.mozaws.net timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.

When I use the History window, I usually open a number of sites rather than just one. When I select "open in new tab", the focus jumps from the History window, where I'm working, to the new tab, which I would instead like opened in the background while I continue working in the History window.

Is there a setting to stop this change of focus from happening, and if so, what is it called and where is it located?

Hello, I'm newbie to Firefox. I had a quick look at the support page and did read how to make the zoom level default but when doing so it only lasts till i restart my PC and then it goes back to 100% . How can i make my default stay at 150% all the time ? Any help on this matter is highly appreciated.

So, on Windows 10 I noticed that when I click the History tab I see Show All History and when I click that the only option I get is Today..very odd.

On my Windows 7 Home Premium when I do the same steps I have access to "Today", "Yesterday", "Last 7 days" and various recent months.

This is what I'm accustomed to and was hoping to get input on why I only get Today option on my Windows 10 computer.

Looking forward to your reply...

I was trying to clear the history from my browser, and instead of clicking Shift > Command > Delete, I clicked Shift > Command > '+', which changed the zoom for the home page, but after putting it back, now I cannot clear history anymore because the keyboard command no longer pulls up the option, and the Clear History option in the menu is greyed out?? (attached) I think I am going to have to uninstall then reinstall the browser to fix it, but not happy about this, and do not understand why this would happen. Can someone explain this stupidity to me please?? Thanks in advance!!

my VA.gov website stated I needed to update firefox....I did (I think or did I 'reinstall' it?). Now MANY years worth ob bookmarks and favorites have disappeared. WHERE did they go? This has never happened before.

I just updated Firefox beta version to 94.0b9 and now I can’t seem to go to some websites. Like “support.mozilla.com” - “accounts.firefox.com” - “addons.mozilla.com” I get an error message “An error occurred during a connection to “support.mozilla.com” PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR The same thing happens with many other websites that I need to go to. I had taken a screenshot of the message but I can’t upload it! because I can’t go to this website from my Desktop PC, so I am doing this report from my iPhones browser.

Thanks for your help.

I just installed the Firefox browser using the installer on the official website. When I attempt to open Firefox, even as administrator, the window either quickly opens and closes or doesn't open at all. I have no clue what is happening.

My webcam worked fine with Chrome but since I changed to Firefox browser, I cannot show my video in a zoom meeting even though my Logitech HD webcam C16 camera shows that it is working on my desktop outside of the zoom meeting. The audio is fine both ways and I can see others' video. They cannot see my video. Help! Diana

I am constantly getting a notice at the top of the screen that says "Mozilla is not responding". It all stalls and then eventually, Mozilla apparently starts to respond and it goes to the page I choose. I have kept up with all the updates and am not a huge online person in the first place. Why does this happen? It is so often, I am tempted to change browsers.

Hello, I have been doing weekly Instagram Live shows for months. I use my cell phone, and my husband typically sits at the desk and acts as my scribe during the show from our desktop computer. Last night we were no longer able to do so. We think it might have to do with add ons or extensions. Can you help, please?

newest version kept crashing various pages I regularly visit. Uninstalled and then installed older version and keeps happening even though NO addons or even any bookmarks anymore.

How do I reset the settings so I can play MPeg4 videos in the browser without a dialog box asking to download it? I've tried going under Settings but it won't let me select "Open in FireFox."

Hi I am working on an home improvement site. The problem I am facing is that my site is not loading properly on Firefox, it is saying that it is unsafe and giving malware threats. What could be the reason behind it?

[PL]: Zwracam się do Państwa z uprzejmą prośbą i pytaniem: jak przywrócić sesję w Mozilli Firefox bez odświeżania przywracanych kart? Podczas użytkowania, Mozilla Firefox niespodziewanie się zamknęła. Pojawiła się możliwość przywrócenia sesji (co zostało zaprezentowane na dołączonym zrzucie ekranu). Zależy mi, by po wciśnięciu przycisku ,,Przywróć sesję", wszystkie przywrócone karty otworzyły się bez odświeżania, czyli innymi słowy, by otwarte w tych kartach strony internetowe nie zostały odświeżone. Niektóre strony internetowe po odświeżeniu nie będą już aktywne bądź nie będą już posiadały informacji, które są mi niezbędne do dalszej pracy, dlatego zależy mi, by odzyskać je w takim stanie, w jakim były one przed nieoczekiwanym zamknięciem Mozilli Firefox, gdyż jest to sytuacja, która nie wynika z mojej winy tylko z zaistniałej awarii Mozilli Firefox. Proszę o odpowiedź, co należy zrobić (np. co zmienić w ustawieniach przeglądarki Mozilla Firefox lub gdziekolwiek indziej), by przywracając sesję, karty nie zostały odświeżone. Jeśli znają Państwo jakieś inne sposoby, by karty w przeglądarce nie zostały odświeżone (związane np. z przywracaniem systemu do punktu przywracania bądź z połączeniem internetowym), to proszę o wskazówki, ponieważ nieoczekiwane zamknięcie Mozilli Firefox spowodowało mi ogromne kłopoty. Z góry serdecznie dziękuję za pilną pomoc, ponieważ jest mi ona potrzebna jak najszybciej z uwagi na moje obowiązki.

[EN]: I am asking you with a kind request and a question: how to restore a session in Mozilla Firefox without refreshing the restored tabs? Mozilla Firefox quit unexpectedly while in use. There is an option to restore the session (as shown in the attached screenshot). After pressing the "Restore session" button, I want all restored tabs to open without refreshing, in other words, that the websites opened in these tabs will not be refreshed. After refreshing, some websites will no longer be active or will no longer have information that is necessary for my further work, so I want to recover them in the state they were in before the unexpected shutdown of Mozilla Firefox, because this is a situation that is not my fault but the failure of Mozilla Firefox. Please. o answer what needs to be done (e.g. what to change in the settings of Mozilla Firefox or elsewhere) so that the tabs are not refreshed when restoring the session. system to a restore point or with an internet connection), I am asking for tips, because Mozilla Firefox unexpectedly shutdown I was in great trouble. Thank you very much in advance for your urgent help, because I need it as soon as possible due to my responsibilities.

Hello,

I have 4 devices (2 laptops, 1 phone and 1 PC), which I logged in to my Firefox account in all of them. I can see my bookmarks in all except for the PC (Windows 10). I can not see my pc under the connected devices from all other devices but I can not access my bookmarks from the browser that I am using on my PC. Can you please guide me how to fix this issue.

Thank you, Afsane

I am on an iMac running Big Sur version 11.6. I need to be able to dictate (speech to text) into fields within the browser. This works in Chrome, and Safari, but I cannot get it to work in Firefox... any help is appreciated!

Firefox will randomly stop resolving google search results. At random times, no search entered at the top url bar will resolve. The browser will just change the text in the bar, and then won't do anything else. If there is a Google page already open, it won't load any links from the results. Google.com won't even load. This typically lasts about 2-5 minutes.

I've seen this in both Windows and Linux. Linux Builds I've tested were the Flatpak from flathub, the snap, the Fedora Repo, and the Tarball binary. They all had the same result after a while of using it. This also happens on both my home network as well as my work network.

I have cleared my profile by manually deleting the folder in appdata or in ~/.mozilla, and tested with no extensions and no setting tweaks. The only tweak I made is disabling DNS over HTTPS. If I change the default search engine to DuckDuckGo or something else, It no longer happens. but that's because it's not trying to access a google domain.

I have attached a gif of my issue.

A few moths ago, when you visited a website and then typed some new search-term in the address-bar, you used to be able to search right in that tab. Now a new tab opens up and you get moved there.

While programming, i search for a lot of stuff. Switch to Firefox -> Ctrl+L -> type search-term is the fastest way i found to search for whatever I need. Problem is: now my browser clutters itself by always opening new tabs instead of just reusing the one i don't need anymore.

So my questions would be this:

1. Is it possible to restore the old behaviour of staying within your one tab?
2. If there is some other shortcut that allows for searching without moving to a new tab?

(I also tried Ctrl+K and Ctrl+J. Both still open a tab when you already are on a website.)
