Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me here. I use Google Fi to make and receive calls from my browser. I accidentally denied microphone permissions to Google Fi from the Firefox dropdown prompt and I cannot find how to get it back.

When I click the dropdown menu, I see no options to enable or disable permissions. I also do not see anything listed in the Security settings of the browser. When I check the google fi settings, I see it complaining about denied permissions though.

I've attached screenshots. Does anyone know where I can revoke the blocked permissions?

Thanks,

When you check the image, you can see two "HOME" entries. This is an issue I discovered after uninstalling and reinstalling the Firefox browser and using Sync.

HOME is my PC, and this image was screenshot on my laptop.

Additionally, the Sync for these HOME entries is not functioning properly. I tested this by opening several sites, and while Sync works well from my smartphone to my PC, it doesn't sync properly from my PC to my laptop.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I tried rebooting my PC, but it didn't work out.

Hi, out of nowhere my Firefox has stopped loading any pages for the past hour. I have read the existing community articles and cleared all of my history, cache, cookies, and restarted my computer 4 times. Firefox is up to date and was working fine up until I left my computer and returned to it an hour ago. I haven't downloaded anything new or clicked anything weird, I was just listening to a regular podcast this morning. All websites either show up as left-aligned text with no images, or are completely blank. This includes Gmail, Tumblr, Youtube, EyeBuyDirect, etc. All of these sites load perfectly in Edge so the issue is specific to Firefox. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Edit to Update: I turned off my AdBlock extensions one by one to narrow down the issue. The problem was AdBlocker Ultimate. I disabled it and now all my websites in Firefox are working as normal.

I have had it up to here with Firefox. I am madder than a hornet. Currently, I am unable to access my Outlook email and DirecTV in my Firefox browser, though I can in other browsers I have. Sometimes, I can't even sign into Ebay.

The DirecTV problem goes back at least 4 years to a different PC, so I have had this same problem on two PCs, therefore it can't be my PC. Besides, why can I access DirecTV on my Norton private browser and not on Firefox? I get the following error window:

    An error occurred while processing your request.
    Reference #219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807
    https://errors.edgesuite.net/219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807

The differing Outlook problem has popped intermittently over the past few months, but has happened more often lately. In that problem, the sign-on button is not activated.

Similar with the Ebay sign-on problem, except Ebay thinks I'm a bot and won't let me go any further than that perplexing error message.

I'm in the process of gravitating to the Norton private browser. I've already got all my bookmarks moved to that browser. At least Norton works for these three websites.

To put it bluntly, I think Firefox is a big stinking pile of horse manure. Firefox makes it EXTREMELY difficult to find out solutions. I believe Firefox actually WANTS it to be difficult to use. Why else would it be so hard to find out things? For example, instructions tell me to do something in some menu or click on some button, but the menu selections or buttons usually aren't there. I go round and round through the same blankety-blank webpages. I feel like a June bug constantly circling round a light. Even wanting to simply restore Firefox to original settings requires pulling eye teeth.

It took me over an hour to finally restore Firefox settings yesterday, which fixed things for THAT DAY ONLY. Today, the same problems cropped back up again.

I've had it. Unless I'm given some solution THAT ACTUALLY CONTINUES TO WORK, I am quitting Firefox.

Have a good day. I sure as hell haven't.

I am using Firefox 129.0.1 on a Windows 11 laptop and the three dots do not appear on the shortcut tiles when I hover over any of them. I have checked online documentation and it still describes using the three dots to add, edit or remove a tile. Am I missing something? Help would be most appreciated.

I hope this message finds you well! I use two versions of Firefox: the stable one and the developer one.

The developer version is set to start with the Windows start and is set to be minimized on the Windows try but since some years Firefox, as other browser do, never load the page or the tab content if the tab or the window is not active, been seen by the user.

I'm asking if there is some hidden settings in the about:config that allow me to disable this and let Firefox load tabs or page always, not only when the tab or windows is seen by me.

Thank you.

I use to get displayed "Advanced" that allowed me to continue forward to get to an "insecure site", only recently that has not been happening (so I am stuck).

I have Firefox 129.0 64 bit on 2 laptops, Laptop2023 and Laptop2024. I would like Laptop2024 to match Laptop2023. If possible, would like to copy the Profile, or at least the Bookmarks. The web articles direct me to Help options which do not exist. I do not want to reset anything on the sending laptop.

I have instructions on how to copy bookmarks from years ago, but Firefox has changed so much that they no longer work. How to I copy with the current Firefox version? If possible, email bjedrick@verizon.net.

My Firefox install apparently did a background update that did not complete, I get an error 'XULRunner / Error: Platform version '129.0' is not compatible...'

I did not (do not) have a profile I had logged into for that installation, but did have many passwords saved that I'd like to still be able to use if at all possible.

I have installed another instance of Firefox that is working (on platform 129.0), and am using Windows 11. I also turned off automatic updates in hopes of preventing this in the future.

The previous profile still exists in AppData/Roaming, but I don't know how/if I can connect it to the new installation I now have.

Is it possible to either fix the incomplete update or connect my old profile to this new instance so I don't have to reset all my passwords?

Thanks!
