It seems that in incognito mode when I go to youtube I am stuck at the consent page and it doesn't matter if I refuse all or accept all it will refresh and show the consent page again. If I go to youtube without incognito mode it works just fine.

Until today it worked fine. But now whenever I try to login to Xfinity I get You don't have permission to access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server. It works fine on Chrome and Edge. I have disabled my add-ons. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc. I have rebooted. I have turned off firewall. I have checked my DNS. I have changed the DNS protection to OFF in Firefox. I have checked my proxy setting (I have no proxy). I have reinstalled Firefox. Etc. Etc. Nothing works. The fact that it works on Chrome and Edge, that it has worked everyday until today gets me confused. I also tried using my mobile phone as a hot spot to make sure it wasn't related to my Internet connection or IP address. Anyone have any ideas?

I have six windows that I use the most. Sometimes I open more windows, but before quitting Firefox, I close windows that are outside of the first six. But if I don’t close the additional windows, the next time I open Firefox, they are all the same position as they were when I closed Firefox.

And that is good.

The problem is, with the taskbar locked, while using Firefox and using Windows the way it’s intended- opening, closing and switching different windows as I need them, the six windows in Firefox switch positions. The windows shift positions so that 6 is 5 and 5 is 6 and 3 is 2 and 1 is 3 and so on. It’s all random.

So why do the windows shift positions?

It is a hassle to have to keep lining them up again and again throughout the day, so that they are always in the right place so that I don’t have to click each taskbar item to find out which window it is. If they remain in the correct order, I have no trouble or wasted time looking for the window I need to use.

The shifting Firefox windows at random is the problem. That is what this inquiry is about.

Here is a temporary fix without having to set them all up from scratch. It takes a few manipulations, but still better than remembering all the tabs in each window then opening each window and tab one at a time in the order I prefer them to be in. I use an addon called Tab Session Manager. This is not an advertisement for the addon. It is necessary to mention it in case others have the same “switching” windows problems. The addon allows you to save each window, then open each of the saved windows in the proper order.

The things I’m trying to get an answer to, are the following questions:

1. Why do the Firefox windows switch positions? 2. And how do I stop it from happening again?

Any help or direction will be appreciated. Thanks.

To whom it may concern, My firefox on a Mac running 14.7.1 crashes on every site that I try to access. It goes to the below image that states "gah, etc". I have sent in mutliple crash reports and followed the troubleshooting on the forums. Steps followed so far -Restarted Firefox -Restarted Mac - Cleared Cache and temporary files -Cleared startup cache -disabled extensions -refreshed firefox -upgraded Mac OS

My next option seems to be to uninstall the programs and reinstall it, but I am worried about losing all saved information including passwords, bookmarks, etc. I cannot even access mozilla's site nor the ability to turn sync on.

Any thoughts would be welcome. Thank you, Adam

How to merge two different sets of Firefox bookmarks simultaneously popping-up 2 different Firefox web-pages into a single Firefox browser system? Please help and advise. Many thanks.

About a month ago, firefox stopped remembering a download location, it's only on one website though. I can download from anywhere but there and it remembers the location but it won't from that site and that's where I download from the most.

In my Settings within Firefox,I have Clicked CLEAR ALL INTERNET CACHE on exiting Firfox BUT when I open CCleaner & Run it,It shows that no internet Cache is cleared after exiting Firefox WHY WHY

I reinstalled windows on my PC. I had to password reset because I forgot it and then it made my login back on my phone. I go through the login process on my phone and I first get my Email verification then I get my Auth app and it tells me it was logged in, but doesn't actually log me in. It does this both on my phone and PC now so I am trying to get logged in on my phone to be able to bring my bookmarks over.

I have a new computer and I want to reinstall my previous FIREFOX browser that has all of my bookmarks with it. I know my password and I have a recovery key. I need simple directions on how to reinstall and how do I make sure I have my bookmarks? Also, on my last FIREFOX browser,when I opened it I had FOX NEWS that appeared. I need to know how to have FOX NEWS come up when I launch FIREFOX. I would really appreciate your help.

I tried downloading Firefox again and I still can't open it. There must be something in my computer (Windows 11) that is stopping it from opening. It is the browser that I prefer. I have used it for many years and everything is on it. Please help.

I cannot sign into AA.com (https://www.aa.com/loyalty/login) on Firefox. Having to use MS Edge to access site. Have reported this via several "broken site" reports but to date, it's still not working.

Being an Amazon associate I need to be able to use the SiteStripe by Amazon on their website to get a short link to a product I want to promote and earn commissions from. Currently Microsoft Edge and Opera work fine with this. Firefox on the other hand does not show the link when prompted. It shows an empty field where the link is generated by Amazon on their SiteStripe..

I have included screenshots from each browser to give you an example.

Thanks, Chris

I have been using Firefox to access the following website for years: "artstorefronts.com", which requires appropriate login credentials, but suddenly Firefox will not open the website. Instead, I get the following message after submitting with proper credentials: "reCAPTCHA verification failed. Try again." There is not a reCAPTCHA "test" associated with this login page, so there is no reason to get this message on my end. However, please note that I AM able to access the subject website using Chrome, Edge and Firefox IOS. I don't access the subject website frequently so I just noticed this problem about a week or so ago, so I suspect the problem began after the latest Firefox update (130.0, 64 bit) a short time ago. Firefox is my default browser and have been using it for years, so would hope to get some resolution to this problem. Thanks, Ralph Liliedahl, liliedahl@gmail.com.
