Firefox Community Forum

I have a link provided by a web site I use. Through Firefox it takes me to a Mimecast authentication screen that asks for my email, then tells me to contact my IT department. This is my home internet. I can access the link through Safari. I'm stumped.

I've used FF for years. The last year, it does not function correctly on about 20% of sites. I suggest focusing on making it compatible, rather than requiring sites that are perfectly coded. I may have to drop FF soon.

I have recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 11 running the following;

Edition Windows 11 Home Version 24H2 Installed on ‎12/‎16/‎2024 OS build 26100.2605 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.36.0

All of my videos from Lifeway, YouTube, even thumbnails on Etsy scramble the video making it unviewable. I contacted Dell and over a week we determined my hardware, software is not the issue. I switched browsers to Brave and Edge and these browsers did not have the same issues. Dell has requested I reach out to you.

Thank you, D Muennink 4324484749

I downloaded Firefox about 2 weeks ago. I imported my passwords, bookmarks, etc. from Chrome, but nothing had shown up. (I did the troubleshoot reset to fix the bookmark issue.) So I just figured I'd save them as I go. Every time I'm prompted to save my password, I do, but it's never actually saved. When I tried to manually enter the password, it says there's an error. I've checked the settings multiple times and everything is correct. I receive a little message at the top of the passwords' page, that says I need to log in, when I am, then that I need to log in with my primary password that was never set up. I've read all of the password help articles and nothing applies to my issues. I don't have any apps blocking it. (I do know on Edge and Chrome, I'm prompted to put in my desktop password but I don't get that on Firefox.) Is there something I can do to fix this? I want to use Firefox, but it's been too buggy from the get-go.

In the past I could attach a computer picture into Hotmail and then drag it into the text body and scale it ie. a Christmas card. Now it will not allow the attached picture to be dragged into the Hotmail text. Why?

Win7x64p, FF 115.18.0esr (64-bit) When I power on my Dell E6440 from hibernate (& restart?), with or without some small portable apps running -Total Commander, notepad. I have to wait (sometimes 5 minutes or more) before I can use without significant lag. HDD LED full-on. If I start up FF while disk usage is very high, sometimes 1 core of CPU gets stuck at 100%. Sleep & wake resets this. Watching in Resource Monitor \Mozilla\xul.dll using high disk B/sec & HDD LED full on, when HDD LED returns normal xul.dll disk read activity drops to 0 or near.

Is a FF service/process reading its stored data?(via xul.dll) or something. Looking for any ideas to troubleshoot.

I'm not having any issues with FireFox running, just this process making PC unusable after wake-up. Thanks

Recently, the Firefox browser stopped working. Specifically for me, Costco's website, and Aetna. I believe the issue could be that those websites require that the location is confirmed, but no pop is generated, thus causing the website to not work with Firefox. Please help me, as your browser is the best.

Good afternoon! Why can't I set the Group Speed Dial tabs as the Home page? I have done everything correctly everywhere, but still opens the start page of Google. Help me to solve this problem, I use your default browser and it brings me some discomfort.

I want links that I open (in Firefox, from Firefox, like opening any normal link) to open in the same tab (unless otherwise specific, like a normal browser should work), and all links from other applications to open in a new tab.

Whenever I click a link, it overrides my current tab, even if I'm working on something important. Apps do not always make it obvious what might be a URL. Windows for instance LOVES to open up "support" links in your browser. Firefox also does this itself with its update function, it opens up its update notification by overwriting your previous tab.

This is a really, really basic feature that should really be a default setting, but it doesn't seem to exist in settings at all.

When I sign in from my desktop I forgot my password and by clicking on forgot password And I saw different mobile no had been added so how can I change my mobile number so that the code can come on my new mobile number

Still waiting for an answer to the above question. Why does the page jump back to the top when I want to open a link in a new tab? The link is halfway down a page but when I do a right/left click it jumps and invariably opens the link a few articles above the actual article I want to read. This had been happening for months now and nobody has bother to give a solution.

I cannot open any web sites from the Mozilla Firefox on my computer. Every attempt gets the message :tab has crashed. Will I need to abandon using Firefox if this is an unfixable problem?

When I navigate to youtube and try to watch a video, the player does not load. It just shows white in the space where the player should be. No video, no audio, no nothing. No matter what video I click, the same thing happens. The only workaround I have found is that if I go to a page with an embedded youtube video, and click the "watch on youtube" link that appears in it, it will load a youtube page that can play videos normally. I can use that page to navigate youtube and it will operate normally. However if I type in youtube.com or get to the site some other way, the issue happens where it is only white space. It is very frustrating.
