Firefox Community Forum

I am using 147 ESR and when I go to permissions and block all cookies for the site plex.tv the cookies are not blocked. If I go to the URL field and select the lock, it shows "clear cookies and site data" which means the cookies have being accepted.

Why are the cookies accepted from the site when I have set cookies "blocked"

I am old-school security conscious & have been using FF since its inception. Really. Clear my cache & delete browsing cookies on a regular basis. I use a private window for shopping and q&a info gathering. Recently I saw Walmart.com showing up in my cookies and couldn't figure out how/why as I *only* look at Walmart in a private window. Today I realized Walmart has managed to bypass the private window options and place cookies anyway! To say I'm furious about this is an understatement. I have adjusted my settings to "Strict" but it's still able to bypass the private window and is staying on my computer. I am updated to the most recent FF version; running MacOs Sonoma 14.7.7 which was just recently updated; I'm not going past this one for now but that really shouldn't be the issue. This is most definitely a FF issue and one that needs to be rectified not just because it's Walmart but because if they can do it so can others soon enough. This cannot stand.

I have been trying for months to access Microsoft365 but I am constantly told that I cannot access it as Firefox is blocking Cookies relevant to this

I have tried every solution I can find on the internet but none of them work for me In desperation HELP

Firefox and Windws 10

I've always used firefox

Recently it seems to me that a lot of sites don't seem to recognise me, so I have to do multi step logins.

Paypal for instance. I don't save the password, I type it in each time, but now it insists on sending me an SMS in addition

My guess is that FF is deleting some cookies that I'd rather it didn't. What can I do?

Thanks

Hello everyone,

I keep having the issue that on some websites, a whole list of cross-site cookies is displayed when i click the icon to the left of the address bar. "These parties can use cross-site cookies and site data while you are on this site."

Especially Google (I am not logged into a Google account) lists many different sites here. I can then click on "Allowed X" - but after a few days, the entry appears again without me being asked!

Under "Privacy & Security" I am using the Standard level. It says there: "Firefox blocks the following: (...) Cross-site cookies in all windows (...)" So why are some still being allowed? How can I generally prohibit them except for those I manually allow? The five levels for cookie handling under "Custom" are unfortunately not very self-explanatory, and I can’t find any whitelist option there either.

Thanks for any advice! Best regards, Martin

The bank for our online HOA accounts wants me to allow "third party cookies". How do I allow that on my MacBook Pro?

Also, the videos that are implanted in news articles on msn.com won't load and play. How do I allow them to load so I can view them?

Thank you.

For the past few days, I keep getting logged off of my Firefox account each time I start up Firefox, a problem that has only began happening since going to a new computer. From what I could tell, the issue was not over from the computer, so I am wondering what the issue can be with Firefox.

Would like help at this as soon as possible. Thank you very much.

Bonjour, depuis plusieurs semaines, je reçois une demande d'acceptation des cookies pour chaque site que j'ouvre. La demande se répète tous les jours même si je visite n'importe quel site plusieurs fois dans la journée. Pouvez vous remédiez à cela. C'est la 1ère fois que je suis confronté à cette anomalie depuis que j'utilise FIREFOX. Merci d'avance -- Cordialement H ROBIN

I am trying for days to get my Yahoo! email to stay signed in on my desktop using Firefox. It has been fine for years, but last week I had to clear cookies and history to solve a completely different problem and now I have this problem instead. I have read articles, searched the web, and I am trying to find "options, set yahoo as my email" (or something like that I read) but I cannot find it in yahoo OR Firefox. please Help! thanks in advance, but hurry.

How can I block Google and other sites from knowing everything I do on Foxfire? Every time I visit anything that has membership Google is there asking to sign me in. I thought Foxfire was supposed to be somewhat private. Thanks!, Mark

On ubuntu oracular 24.10, when firefox is launched, it tries to open a UDP listening port on all network interfaces which is not acceptable on many levels:

/usr/bin/netstat -tunpevaW|grep firefox udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:48654 0.0.0.0:* 1000 881247 178766/firefox

Is this behavior specific to Ubuntu or is it implemented by design? This must be a no go by design: if it needs a UDP port for some reason, it has to open it on the **loopback interface (127.0.0.1)** only.
