I have an account on a website I visit near-daily. Despite having both cookies for this website persist and the password supposedly saved, the last three times I've visited the website I've been logged out and the password is nowhere to be found. Having to switch between my password manager and browser is annoying beyond description.

(That's actually not true. I have quite a few choice descriptors for this program, but have chosen to omit them)

I need to revert to the prior version - my Firefox updated automatically and now there's a bunch of stuff that make using it very hard for me.

Background - I have a TBI that limits my ability to process input. This new version has dropdowns on tabs that are useless and extraneous and make it hard for me to find what I need. I want the old version back so I don't get confused.

I got one response to my prior inquiry with some words and stuff that didn't make sense and when I tried to follow the "directions" what the response said would happen didn't. I tried to restart the search for how to fix this so I can function but it's been ignored for 5 days now.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO GO BACK TO THE PRIOR VERSION which was working just fine PLEASE???

Trying to get on twitter, doesn't matter how I approach it I get redirected to a page that tells me my browser is not supported. Firefox is very much still listed as a supported browser.

Went through previous help discussions about this problem. I have made firefox forget twitter completely, and I've added it as an exception to enhanced tracking, neither of which have resolved the issue. I'm still only able to get to a page telling me my browser is not supported. It was working fine two days ago.

Any other suggestions?

Whenever I go onto a Microsoft website, I have a terrible (consistently mildly inconvenient) time signing in. For whatever reason, it always tries to sign in with my school account instead of my personal account, and I have to manually change to the account I actually want to use. I don't know why it keeps defaulting like this but it's very annoying, what can I do about it?

I'm referring to when you hit ctrl-d or click the star, click the location dropdown, and select the choose option to scroll through your bookmark folders to select where to put the bookmark, my menu is tiny and annoyingly easy to scroll too far in without realizing till it's too late. Quick google didn't seem to have a solution, and the support didn't recognize the verbiage at least (not sure if that's on me for wording it weird or what, I'm pretty new to FIrefox and still have growing pains from the switch from the now anti-adblock browser I abandoned). Anyone?

Hi, I had the idea to try Opera browser as I saw various videos about it. Firefox does slow me down at times even though it's what I have used for years.

Soon after, I defaulted back to using Firefox but the settings must have gotten changed. Everytime I wish to log in to any site, I have to type in my email again. The passwords usually are the old ones that show up.

With Amazon for instance. I must sign in and verify with codes sent to my mobile few times a day. I have searched for help online and gone through the cookies and history and privacy settings, turn this on or that off, don't do this and don't do that. Despite all that, the sites don't remember my email logins. If I go from voucher code to another site, it doesn't remember my credentials, so I don't get the deal or voucher. Amazon on my mobile works perfect but on my laptop, it's just a nightmare to have to sign in and verify each time. Outlook refuses to recognize my password most times and so it goes on.

If I cannot fix this asap, I will then have to remove Firefox as a browser altogether and find anything else that works! Please advise. Last time I reached out to Firefox, I never heard back! Fingers Crossed x

I have difficulty with a number of sites when trying to login. An example - yesterday I was unable to login to my account on STARZ immediately after changing my password. I switched to Chrome and I was able to complete the process. On STARZ it just acted like I had not entered my username and password. On vistana.com, when I initially put in the URL, I see a message box flash, then I get a blank window. Again, it works fine with Chrome.

Ideas? Ways to track what is going on? Any ideas appreciated! I would like to continue using Firefox, but it is very frustrating to have these login issues.

TIA, Ken

I use Google search and do not like the AI overview feature. In the Chrome, Edge, and Opera browser I've added an extension that blocks the AI. What I've noticed when I use FF I see no AI results when using Google search and I've not added an AI overview block extension. Is there something different about FF that prevents AI results from showing without the need for an extension? I look forward to your comments. Thanks

Running Firefox on macOS Sequoia 15.0. Afternoon of Tuesday, 8 October, Firefox abruptly ceased loading any pages. I eventually learned of the malware incident and downloaded Firefox 131.0.2 last night and overwrote the existing file. It worked for a brief moment, then also ceased functioning. Have downloaded 131.0.2 several times now, with no further success. Currently dead in the water with Firefox, and stuck with Safari. :(
