Firefox Support Forum

In the past, when I click on the "history" tab I have several options for viewing my history, including the ability to view all my browsing history for as long as I've been using Firefox. Today I went to search for a download and discovered my settings have changed so that the only options now available to me are "Today," "Yesterday," and "Last Seven Days."

I don't know what happened to change my settings, though I did notice last week that I had to re-enter my passwords on several sites that I regularly visit.

How to I change the settings on History so that I have the option to view my entire browsing history again?

My bookmarks are greyed out and are not working. This happened this morning and i don't know what is causing this problem. We restarted the computer and now some of the links (when you click) just bring you to firefox login. They don't go to the bookmark site.

I've cleared the WaPo cookies which didn't help. I can get into my account on Safari, but I hate that. I had an extended conversation with WaPo supervisor, and don't want to clear the rest of my cookies if I can help it.

This is a brand new problem. I cleared WaPo cookies twice which didn't help. I can sign in on main page but it throws me out of individual articles in a constant loop.

I'm hoping the next FireFox upgrade will fix this problem. I don't have it with any other news (NYTimes, Boston Globe) outlets.

Greetings,

Due to predatory business practices, I have resorted to launching a basic webhosting business to support my other businesses and provide cost effective online presence solutions to small businesses. In order to provide the best service, I'll need to become a certification authority. I am well aware of how to generate AES256 encrypted key pairs (4096), and I will have no trouble following the rules listed in section 2 here:

Who might I contact to further my goals? You will notice that my sites lack SSL encryption at the moment, because I would prefer to issue them myself. When I self-sign them currently, browsers do not honor my certificates. For some background, here is my linkedin:

Before Update: I have two different YouTube workflows on two different systems. Although I use ONE Mozilla account, I was able to get automatic sign on for TWO different systems. This meant that I was not automatically logged into the other account as long as I was on the appropriate device.

After Update: Auto-login is only working on my main system's Firefox (without new update). I now have to re-log into my production YT account manually. The reason I can identify this was after the update is because I now have an "old Firefox data" folder on my desktop, aswell as all my extensions being re-installed.

Considerations/Clarifications - I do not mean auto-fill passwords. I mean that my account is already ready to go when I access the YT site. - I use a few security extensions. I understand that these may have an impact on my browser's ability to save passwords. However, for the past 7 years, this has never been a problem given similar extensions.

    - Extension List: Privacy Badger, Adblock, Adblock plus, Adblock for YT, DuckDuckGo privacy essentials,  Facebook container, and Decentraleyes.

Any help is appreciated.

recently at time of updating Firefox I've got this additional app: It requires to buy this program and doesn't let me open any page by covering it with their own add Unlimited Adblock 2023

I have tried fixing the config settings, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I don't have any applications anymore (not even a background), and I have deleted and got rid of cache, history, etc.

But it still keeps lagging for me to the point that its hard to even use it now. I checked the task manager and even with just 1 new tab open, it was using 80% CPU. I changed the settings on it for the hardware like other replies said to do, and it still won't stop lagging.

It works perfectly in troubleshoot mode, but as soon as its gone, even when all the extensions and add-ons are removed, there's still a ton of lag. My computer is an Acer Nitro 5, I literally got it last year. Firefox was working up until 2 days ago just fine!

I can't seem to figure out the cause of it

I get a response: "502 Bad Gateway" every time I try to register for or validate entry in "KingSumo.com contests. This has been going on for days. I am running latest Firefox, Win 10, Roboform, and Norton 360 with safe web on. I saw a number of people have a similar problem, but did not mention KingSumo.com contests. I tried turning off Norton Safe Web and it made no difference. Any help would be appreciated.

I have firefox configured to always run using private mode by default. However sometimes i need a new private window with empty localstorage, sessionstorage and cookiejar etc. For example if i want to sign into a website with two separate accounts such as an email client. However, recently, when i click "New private window" and within it navigate to a website I see my preexisting session from my original firefox instance. In the case of the email client this means I can only log in using a single account with the firefox browser. Currently I have to open another browser such as chrome or edge to solve this issue.

Is this expected behaviour or is there something wrong with my local setup?

Thanks

When accessing Coursera course page it opens, however, I cannot scroll down. The scroll bar moves down, but the page view does not.

The view remains on top and shakes a little when attempting to scroll down. I have tried using the keyboard arrows, page down, mouse scroll, and the scroll bar, but the page view does not go down.

Other web browsers (Microsoft Edge & Google Chrome) work.

Hi, I'm having a ton of issues with Firefox over the past couple months. It seems like it is having a terribly time connecting to anything. If I open Firefox and try to search using the URL bar, it will attempt to search, and either get hung up and just continually load until it just stops and leaves the screen blank or it will give me the little astronaut saying something like "oops can't connect". Then if I were to try and open YouTube. The same issue, and when it does load and I try to type in the YouTube search, it gets hung up AGAIN. YouTube videos never load past the 1 minute mark until I give it like 3 minutes to load.

Some information about my setup:

• i7-11800H
• 16GB Ram
• RTX 3070
• 416 Mbps Down | 22.3 Mbps Up
• Extension include: Bitwarden, Dark Reader, Privacy Badger, and uBlock Origin
• I use AVG as my security suite

I seriously couldn't begin to think whats causing these issues. I understand there's a lot of anti-trackers and AVG, but seriously 3 minutes to even boot up YouTube or not even being able to search on Google from Firefox? That's ridiculous.

Ive tried refreshing, launching in troubleshooting mode, clearing cache and cookies. Nothing works, in fact in troubleshooting mode I still experienced the issues.

Streams like this don't work on my laptop.

I'll start the stream but it'll load forever and then crash (not the site, but the video player).

These streams do work on my phone using mobile Firefox.

I'm thinking it has something to do with the latest update. I only installed it recently and that's about when these streams started breaking.
