I uninstalled Kaspersky, but when I try to access gmail through firefox, it shows that it is still trying to connect through some kaspersky address, ff.kis.v2.scr.kaspersky-labs.com, and it never loads. Kaspersky is no longer listed under my extensions, and I am not sure how to get this resolved so that I can access gmail again. Please help!

Hello

I use Firefox 132.0.1 under Fedora 14 Linux. Whenever I click an urls in another application (e.g. Libreoffice, Keepass...) a new tab is opened in Firefox (according to Firefox's settings), but Firefox itself does not pop up in the foreground, it remains in the background. I highly appreciate the setting 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. But FF only comes to foreground in case I deactivate 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. How can I prevent FF to stay in the background in case 'open links in tabs instead of new windows' is enabled?

Thank you in advance

After my Windows 10 laptop being in sleep mode I found my background picture changed and all my Firefox tabs missing (while my bookmarks, add-ons, history etc. saved, and all other apps functioning properly). Recently Closed Windows menu was inactive and using Restore option in Library had no effect (despite availability of recent saves).

I found out that Mozilla folder was just missing in %appdata% (e.g. Profile Folder in about:support leaded to a non-existent directory). No manual changes to Firefox settings/data were made and no new profiles created.

What might be the problem and are there any ways to restore my tabs?

I prefer the tabs be below the bookmark bar, and successfully modified the CSS file to do this some time back. Now update 133 has once again pushed them up below the menu bar. What do I have to do to get them back where I want them this time? And why can't you just leave the tab location preference alone when doing updates?

I have had it up to here with Firefox. I am madder than a hornet. Currently, I am unable to access my Outlook email and DirecTV in my Firefox browser, though I can in other browsers I have. Sometimes, I can't even sign into Ebay.

The DirecTV problem goes back at least 4 years to a different PC, so I have had this same problem on two PCs, therefore it can't be my PC. Besides, why can I access DirecTV on my Norton private browser and not on Firefox? I get the following error window:

    An error occurred while processing your request.
    Reference #219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807
    https://errors.edgesuite.net/219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807

The differing Outlook problem has popped intermittently over the past few months, but has happened more often lately. In that problem, the sign-on button is not activated.

Similar with the Ebay sign-on problem, except Ebay thinks I'm a bot and won't let me go any further than that perplexing error message.

I'm in the process of gravitating to the Norton private browser. I've already got all my bookmarks moved to that browser. At least Norton works for these three websites.

To put it bluntly, I think Firefox is a big stinking pile of horse manure. Firefox makes it EXTREMELY difficult to find out solutions. I believe Firefox actually WANTS it to be difficult to use. Why else would it be so hard to find out things? For example, instructions tell me to do something in some menu or click on some button, but the menu selections or buttons usually aren't there. I go round and round through the same blankety-blank webpages. I feel like a June bug constantly circling round a light. Even wanting to simply restore Firefox to original settings requires pulling eye teeth.

It took me over an hour to finally restore Firefox settings yesterday, which fixed things for THAT DAY ONLY. Today, the same problems cropped back up again.

I've had it. Unless I'm given some solution THAT ACTUALLY CONTINUES TO WORK, I am quitting Firefox.

Have a good day. I sure as hell haven't.

The floating window only half shows up above he tab. This is just insane and makes using Firefox almost to much to deal with. Every time I get near a tab the floating window appears and tells me what the tab already tells me. Come on this is GARBAGE!

For about two months, video quality has been persistently low for me on Youtube. Quality options are limited to 360p and I am unable to change it. Additionally, I am unable to play video on other platforms such as Vimeo, Pinterest and other streaming sites. Sites return errors such as 'Player is unable to play video at this time' or error code 102630. I have refreshed my cache and reinstalled Firefox and neither have resolved the issue. Notably, this issue does not occur on other browsers such as Chrome or Microsoft Edge. As far as I know my drivers are up to date and the Windows Media Feature Pack is installed, although it shouldn't be an issue seeing as sites work on other browsers. The issue also persists in troubleshooting mode. I've gone through the console and included images of some interesting errors that might be of use, although I don't have the technical knowledge to know what they mean. Please inform me if there is any other information I can provide that would help. Thank you!

I have a problem with my primary email. I cannot send out or receive. I'm working with my provider but no resolution as of yet. They did check my settings at the provider level but said everything looks good. I've thoroughly checked and rechecked all my email settings and am unable to see a problem. I'm thinking that since I am not signed into my browser (Mozilla Firefox) with it telling me my account is disconnected that I need to Sync my account, but I cannot do that.

So, I have been trying to Sync my Mozilla account but being I have a problem with email I am unable to receive your email code to completely sign into my Mozilla account. What I am wanting to do is to sign into my account and add a secondary email address so to receive your sign in code so that I am able to finish syncing my account.

I am lost to know what to do from here! You will be unable to reply to me using my regular primary email address because as I say, I cannot send or receive, so how can you even help me? Please help me somehow! I'm sure you have my phone number being I would think it's on my account. Can you phone me? Hopefully! Not sure whether I should put a phone number or the added secondary email address in here so you can add it for me. I can't sign into Mozilla to do anything. I went through my Google account to get this far so to hopefully send this to you. Your help would surely be appreciated! I'm desperate- here it is - Email hidden for privacy - you can contact me through that. Please help!!! Thank you!
