There are simply way too many duplicate devices that are being created.
How many is too many? 15. Fifteen duplicate devices.
I have three 4 actual devices:
- iMac running 10.11 (El Capitan)
- iPhone running iOS 13
- iPad running iOS 13
- Surface Pro running Windows 10
Why are there so many devices being created? How can I stop this?
1) Sending bookmarks becomes a guessing game because I don't know which device is current 2) I have to go in an manually delete devices ON A REGULAR BASIS, so the "Send Tab to Device" feature is actually usable 3) Does it have anything to do with the incessant code verification emails I get every time I'm somehow logged out of my Firefox account even though I was using it not half an hour earlier?
PLEASE tell me how to stop all of this. I don't have this problem with Safari or Chrome.

I am facing this PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR problem from last 15 days, I tried EVERY possible solutions posted in different community supports (Microsoft, and firefox) and also checked every possible article on this problem but none of those helped me. I see firefox tries to do some "TLS handshake with the server" everytime before this problem apperars.
Then I tried a solution provided by a user in microsoft community, the suggested me to switch the proxy setting to "Auto detect proxy for this site" and "Enable DNS over https", and it was working for me. But from last 2 days I started facing the same issue again. The webpages only works when I start Firefox in Safe Mode.
It's so frustrating and makes it impossible to use Firefox. And leaves me with no other option but to use Microsoft Edge. I really like Firefox so wanted to know if anyone could help me fix this issue with something New and Effective.
Since the 73.0.1 update went through, all tabs keep crashing. Refreshing and reinstalling didn't help. It's practically useless now.

The update came through earlier today and not a single tab has loaded since. They keep crashing and no amount of restoring works. There are no crash logs. I have restarted, cleared cache, refreshed browser, uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. Is there anything else to do before ditching it for good?
After update to 73.0.1, every tab crashes even built in Mozilla tabs. They don't even load and just go right to "Gah."

Starting about 6-8 months ago (whatever version of fire fox browser was at that time) If there is any type of video playing, even a window in a page, it always takes at least 9 or more seconds for the browser to either go to another page, or close. If the page does not have any "Live" video, it will go to another webpage or close very quickly. No new add on's have been installed by the user in over a year.

This has now happened after the last two Mac updates. I get the TLS handshake forever until it times out. Occasionally something gets through (like the Mozilla help pages!) Unlike others who have posted this issue, the same problem holds in Chrome and Safari. I have tried various fixes, including a new identity on my Mac, with no success. Last time the issue seemed to spontaneously resolve after a couple of hours and never reappeared until Mac updated again. While all this is happening, my email works fine, my husband's macbook pro (just like mine) works fine, and my iPad works fine. I have left this message on the Mac help forum, too, hoping someone will have some idea of what is happening. OS Mojave 10.14.6

When I change language input, it causes some problems. These problems does not always happens, but they does repeat from time to time. I think the problem is related to Firefox on Ubuntu.
Problems: - First, changing language input cases Firefox to become a little slow and lose focus for a second or less.
- duckduckgo: Not the main site, but after making a search (for example: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=test). If you are on this site and change language input, and then press "h" it selects all the search text. pressing "v" shows a message that Firefox has prevented a pop-up (which is the first search result. If you allow pop-up, it will open that result).
- Facebook: When writing in the mini-chat, changing language input makes the chat to lose focus. Writing when the chat is in that state can cause the chat to disappear. It seems like the chat element is blocked from HTML, even if I click on chats or contacts to open a new chat, the chat does not appear any more. Moving from a Facebook link to another by clicking on page elements (using ajax) does not remove that "block". The only solution is to reload the page.
Nothing is working to delete all bookmarks.
I want to delete very old bookmarks so I can add my business bookmarks. Also, Firefox keeps crashing.

When I put alerts into nameOnKeyDown and update I see that nameOnKeyDown is called but update is never called.
You can see the above code in action at https://www.jamescobban.net/FamilyTree/nominalIndex.php?name=allenby,%20a&treename=&lang=en
This code has worked for over 10 years, and still is working today on Chrome, but the timer never pops on Firefox 73.0 on Ubuntu Linux 19.10.
Firefox hangs after starting
Firefox freezes after launch (after about 30 seconds). Then after another 30 seconds it starts working properly

New to Ubuntu and Firefox. Want to ditch Chrome. I have the existing extensions and a list of recommendations. I believe I have just the one add-on.
I've tried searching for the answer but think I may be asking the wrong question to diagnose the problem. YouTube plays just fine.
I have encountered: - This video file cannot be played.(Error Code: 102630) - No compatible source was found for this media.
Thanks for any help, Varices

Initially this may seem the simplest problem but Im not sure it is. Perhaps due to order of closing session windows. I have this problem once every few years, So far I havent managed to set up anythng that works reliably to get me out of the mess. I use FF and have over 1000 tabs. 99% of the time 'restore session from before' after reboot works automatically great. Obviously with that many tabs things slow down, I then use CCLEANER to clear up and reboot.Today I forgot I had mutliple unimportant firefox windows open in addition to my MOTHERLOAD firefox window. I closed my session in perhaps some haphazzard order. On restarting I only had my unimportant windows open. I have not restarted after this Im still sitting in the new session. I have yet to find a consistent way to backup my open tabs. In the past I had an addon which wrote my tabs to a file but that addon got dumped after an update to FF. I REALLY REALLY dont want to lose my list of tabs as I wont be able to get this info back But more that this what is the safest way to back this info up on a regular basis in a way that I can get back to it? The current way is not 100% foolproof. :(
I have no history showing in FF as CCleaner removes all that (session data isnt removed). I assume I might have restore or previous restore files? Really not sure where to look. Im on Windows 10. Im not even sure where to look anymore for the sessonrestore file. Perhaps it doesnt save it when it isnt the last window to be closed??? Im reluctant to close this session now too. (Hope all my terminology is correct. Is it a window has mutiple tabs, you can have more than one window all of which comprise the session.)
Any help appreciated. Feeling sick and nervous
How to stop Firefox from sending TLS 1.0 even after disabled in settings.

Currently running Firefox 73.0.1.
Connections to my server from Firefox all fail with 'connection_reset' from the server.
Wireshark capture shows that Firefox is attempting a 'Client Hello' using TLS 1.0.
Servers are configured with TLS 1.0 removed/disabled.
All the Firefox advanced settings in about:config are set with TLS 1.2 as the minimum, yet Firefox insists on sending TLS 1.0 'client hello'.
Not an expert, but it kind of looks like Firefox is sending a TLS 1.2 'Client Hello' encapsulated inside a TLS 1.0 'Client Hello'? Is this even possible?
Chrome, IE, and Edge behave appropriately and send 'Client Hello' as TLS 1.2.
How do we get Firefox to send the appropriate 'Client Hello'?
This affects multiple versions of Firefox, even the beta builds that I tested over the weekend and occurs on any machine tested so far. Windows 10, various flavors of Linux, etc.
See screenshots below for configuration settings and wireshark capture.
Thanks for the help!
