Been perfect for years. However, recently (2/3 months) when attempting to make a purchase online using my normal bank debit card, I am sometimes asked for verification. On entering the "Correct" details and the "Correct" PIN sent to me by my bank, the verification will not work. I have had several long conversations with my bank who have established nothing is wrong either with my banking or their system. Their investigation shows the problem lies with my browser ie. "Firefox". This is causing me untold misery and prevents me purchasing online with my bank. I have no idea how to find the issue or certainly how to fix it. Otherwise my pc is working just fine. Windows 10. I really hope you can throw some light on this. I suspect it has occurred since a Firefox update was installed!!!! William Burns

I have restarted Firefox to no avail. I wish not to uninstall and re-install as I have several important bookmarks I don't want to get rid off.

This one download keeps persisting. When I click the x, nothing happens. When I try to cancel it, nothing happens. It doesn't make any progress and doesn't do anything else aside from prevent me from downloading other files. It is really beginning to stress me out.

Please help.

I am running Firefox-112.0(64bit) on Debian Bullseye. When I pend Firefox I am presented with a blank page rather that my normal sign in page.

Opening a terminal window and starting Firefox with /opt/firefox/firefox generates the following errors:

comp@AbNormal:~$ /opt/firefox/firefox [GFX1-]: glxtest: VA-API test failed: no supported VAAPI profile found. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. [ERROR glean_core] Error setting metrics feature config: Json(Error("EOF while parsing a value", line: 1, column: 0))

If I enter a URL the page opens and is usable.

How can this problem be fixed?

Thanks in advance.

Keep getting this on a number of websites. Most of them I have used for years. Can't give the websites as there are too many but some are pitchsidemanager.com, hattrick.org, skysports.com and sportinglife.com . Just four of at least 14 give the Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site message. I use No Proxy and have my anti-virus turned off when I get the message. I have tried various other proxy settings but the same thing happens. The thing is that I have to keep refreshing the page until it does actually connect and that can take a good few minutes. Sometimes I have to restart the browser. Why is this happening since the last few updates?

Hi, I was using Firefox for many years . Recently I noticed that all my passwords in Firefox were gone and it seems like my account was recreated but all the historical passwords were missing. I was under the impression that those passwords are backed-up somewhere and that I can retrieve them. Could you advise how to recover my logins I collected in Firefox over the years pls.?

I have started doing research on Vietnam Veterans using the online Coffelt database (coffeltdatabase.org). The search results pages often provide links to supporting documents, but I am not able to open them in the Firefox browser. However, I am able to open them when using the Edge browser. I prefer Firefox and would like to know if there is a setting adjustment I could make to fix the issue. Thanks.

None of my pw managers are working on Firefox now. They use to. The extensions are in place. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the managers. I have reviewed the settings in Firefox and notice nothing that would stop any of the managers to work. They allow for the email to be populated but the actual passwords will not. And as I said this is the same for any of the password managers I have, i.e., not just one. Should I uninstall Firefox?

I am disabled and have been using Dragon for writing and reading for more than 20 years. With the new update I cannot install the Dragon extension into Firefox and the longer. This means I will be no longer able to use Firefox as my web browser. This means I will be going to another editor! This is a shame because I've used Firefox even before it was Firefox! (Netscape)

I stopped using LastPass a couple of years ago due to them having security issues. I use Pocket and have used them for a number of years. I received an email from Pocket saying they were migrating to Firefox and in order to access what I saved to Pocket in the past, I need to use Firefox. I downloaded Firefox and LastPass is not letting me log in. I use BitWarden as my password manager. I tried accessing Firefox with the sign in and password that I used in the past but LastPass keeps giving me an error message.

Autoplay media blocking does not work. I've tried to block autoplay on sites settings and also done this about:config fix without results.

   media.autoplay.default = 5 [0:allow;1:blockAudible;2:Prompt;5:blockAll]
   media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2
   media.autoplay.allow-extension-background-pages = false
   media.autoplay.block-event.enabled = true '

Videos still start playing in some websites. I've noticed that when reloading the page, then autoplay blocking works.

Example: https://www.iltalehti.fi/formulat/a/35242327-7699-45a2-a1b5-75ff330a9d13 When i go to page first time, it shows on the left of address bar, that autoplay function is not even enabled (no autoplay block icon). When i reload/refresh the page, then it shows that autoplay is disabled and autoplay block is working properly (icon appears).

So it's only issue when visiting the page first time, if page is refreshed, no issues.

Hello, every since I've signed up with an account in Firefox, I've gotten marketing emails and other spam from Mozzila. I've opted out via the unsubscribe link several times, Ive tried checking "Unsubscribe from all emails" I've tried just leaving them all blank. But the emails persist.

Yes they are from Mozillas actual email, and the certificate checks out. Yes I've given it a few days. Yes, I've done the unsubscribe through my account settings as well. Please, I'm begging, someone at Mozilla look into this. I'd hate to black list your email and report Mozilla for violating the CAN-SPAM act.

I have been exchanging long emails with a vendor. Now I want to print all of the entire emails, but when I open the "chain" of the 23 emails, I see a few lines of text, and there is a small box that says "additional text hidden" or something similar. How do I expand each of the emails and print the whole email for each of the 23? Thanks.
