Since updating Firefox I can no longer connect to known good sites without getting "Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue". This includes U.S. government sites! For instance, try connecting to https://covidtests.gov/ for example. What is going on?

Hi, there are bugs with text selection when using touch. The video below explains. But simply selecting text is really buggy and the bugs happen randomly, long pressing on text sometimes selects text sometimes not, sometimes opens context menus sometimes not. The preferred behavior is to select text and open the context menu at the same time.

Hello, I used to have access to two different universities' databases and repositories – MAU and SU – but my SU access recently expired. I think the two universities use the same search platform. Now, when I try to search via MAU, I get automatically redirected to the SU results page and am prompted to log into an SU account that is no longer active and valid. I have tried figuring out how to change the settings behind this redirection but I have no more ideas about what may be causing it or where I should be looking to figure it out.

When I try to log in to www.paypal.com I am asked to complete multiple security prompts!! It is so annoying and time consuming when I run a business and need to send invoices to my customer. It has only happened the last few days as I have used Mozilla for many years. How do I solve this please?

Après chaque mise à jour je suis obligé de récupérer chaque page, votre ficher de sauvegarde: "bootmarks 2024..... ne fonctionne pas, il n'y a pas la possibilité de récupérer l'ensemble de l'historique.J'en ai ras le bol de votre navigateur, si vous ne me donnez pas une solution simple, je quitte Mozilla que j'utilise depuis 30ans.

Hi, recently I encountered a werid popping sound while listining to music on YT. Firstly as I wanted to change my old DAC I swichted to a new one (every reason to buy new stuff is good), but now it is unberable. I spend some hours trying to figure out, watching tutorials etc. disabling all the stuff from device manager, checking if fast boot option is disabled, rolled back drivers, swithed to USB 2.0, disabled all of the extentions etc. etc. (the sound popping was only in youtube, but I figured maybe its due to my hardware or something). However, I found out that clearning cashe works for a couple of minutes, and browsing on incognito tab also works for some time. This leads me to belive that maybe a new updated is somehow messing it up, or google really wants me to use chrome. Any advice would be helpfull. Thanks

With mozilla cant open www.go3.lt from yesterday because do not verify i am a human by cloudflare service. Other browsers like edge or chrome works but my beloved mozilla not :( pls help. I cleared all history, cookies and cash but do not helped.

Hi, have been a Firefox devotee for years. Currently have a problem accessing some sites including https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/login which I access via another email address. The problem is that when i click login nothing happens - there is no pop up or similar - the attached image results, suggesting a reCaptcha failure. But I don't see anything.

When using Chrome, I do not get the same challenge, so clearly to me, a setting in Firefox.

Appreciate any help on offer,

thanks

In Duolingo you can turn on/off the sound settings which include 'motivational' noises when you answer correctly. I find them annoying so have them off. I've been using Duolingo and Firefox together for years, no problem, then a couple of months ago these sound settings became ineffective i.e. permanently on even if turned off in Duolingo. I thought the problem was a bug in Duolingo until I loaded it from Microsoft Edge and there was no problem. The settings turned on and off. I'd prefer to carry on as I was before and just use Firefox. How can I fix this?

What has happened to the "More actions" menu button - the one that normally is in the upper left corner of windows (see the attached image)?

I have just installed a new PC, with Debian 12 and KDE (plasma 5.27.5); the other windows have this menu button, but not Firefox and Thunderbird. Is there a way to get it back, eg by moving the menu bar out of the title bar and back to where it used to be?

Hello, earlier in the day I pressed a keyboard shortcut on accident when picking up my keyboard and has changed google results quite dramatically. I grabbed my keyboard and had a menu pop up on the left side and after i closed it noticed my google results had a scroll bar now. The results page only presents itself on the left half of the screen and a scroll bar has appeared on both the right side, cutting off text, and bottom of the page. These scroll bars only move a tiny bit and are quite unnecessary, but makes scrolling a pain as I have to be sure I am outside the new scroll bar area as they take precedent from the main scroll bar. I have googled Firefox's keyboard shortcuts and haven't found the one i need to fix this. Before I'm asked, no I do not have crazy zoom on and no zooming in does not fix this problem.

I am encountering an issue with the Ultimate Addon Image Gallery when viewed in the Mozilla browser. On the user's first visit to the page, the image gallery fails to load promptly, often taking a long time to display. During this delay, a black screen appears instead of the intended images, and the images do not retain their original sizes.

This issue is specific to the Mozilla browser and impacts the user experience. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or troubleshootinghttps://globalstep.com/art-page-revised-v6-33/

How can I roll back or uninstall this latest update? I'm suddenly stuck with this big stupid empty sidebar and it's an eyesore and distracting and I hate it. Almost worth going back to Edge for it. I want it gone. Nobody wants bezels on their phones/devices, who the hell thought it was a good idea to take up more window on their web browser!?

When I click submit on a form and switch tabs before it completes processing and return to the tab after the page is not refreshed with the new page returned from the server. However, the action has completed on the server. This only started happening in the last couple of weeks. Note: if I stay on the tab without switching it is fine.

I need to access the official site for the water institute in the country of Panama and keep receiving the following message Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to www.idaan.gob.pa. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

I could access it until about 1.5 years ago when I used it a lot. Now I cannot access it anymore but this is an official governmental site www.idaan.gob.pa so why cannot it accessed now? I cannot access if from any of my devices, including those with the most up to date windows and Apple versions.

What do I need to do? contacting the institution is out of question as the site works OK in that country, so it is a FireFox problem outside of the country. Please help. Thanks, Helena
