My gyazo extension stopped working .. i can not access my gyazo acc with firefox . i been using gyazo with firefox for years.. I was able to log in using chrome. But i like firefox. i have contacted gyazo support and ran threw all the listed trouble shooting steps. This just started in the past few days. Idk if there was a update or windows update or what . i tried everything . Anything you can add would be great.

This is the page i get when i try to log in. "Checking your browser before accessing gyazo.com ... Click here if you are not automatically redirected after 5 seconds." then nothing happens.

An infected website warning by AVG comes up every time I open Mozilla. It doesn't occur with other browsers. How can I get rid of it. It seems like it's the same URL.

When saving images from websites using the save image as feature, Firefox will freeze up and not register any mouse click or anything instead making a ding noise every time is register a mouse click. This will continue for like 30 seconds before it becomes normal then it will repeat this for every image. How can I solve this?

Hello,

I recently reinstalled Windows on my computer and expected Firefox to sync and restore my saved passwords, as I had enabled Firefox Sync before reinstalling. However, after syncing my account, my passwords did not appear, and I am unable to access them.

I have already tried the following steps:

   Checked the sync status of my Firefox account.
   Ensured that I am signed into the correct Firefox account on my browser.
   Searched for any relevant troubleshooting steps but haven't been able to resolve the issue.

Could you please assist me in restoring my saved passwords or provide any guidance on how I can retrieve them?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards, Tameem

Reloading existing tabs or entering full URLs works. Toggling "Work Offline" on and off does not fix the problem and the only workaround is restarting Firefox.

This is triggered by laptop doing sleep/wake transitions so I strongly suspect this is related to Firefox online/offline detection.

i have Linux Cinnamon 22 and want to stop the PIP on YT. I disabled/unchecked box for PIP on FFox and PIP still happen on YT. What can i do to stop this horrible PIP now ? thank you.

Wikipedia render Thai fonts correctly. But it seems to render Latin texts and numbers in "TH Charm of AU" font for Thai articles, which I did not set anywhere in the browser (and my operating system). Ticking "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" does not fix it either. But it renders fonts correctly in English version of the same article. (See the attached images).

Any ways to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

so i signed into my firefox account on a new computer and every time i hit the sync now button it brings a pop up for half a second then it disappears and no changes happen to my bookmarks or any of my other synced data.looked through the forums could not find anything that was even similar to my problem

Recently, I am unable to open PDF's on Firefox. When I go to another browser and access the same site (such as a bank) I am able to view the PDF. I have tried some of the suggestions regarding extensions etc, but nothing seems to work. Is there a solution? Thanks, SVS

There is (IMHO) some missing functionality / unwanted feature or call it what you like (bug?).

History -> Manage History

select e.g. Last 7 days, right click on Name and select at least two attributes (you can choose from: Tags, Location,Most Recent Visit, Added and Last Modified)

Select the first entry of the list, all displayed fields are selected/highlighted.

Copy (either with the menu or with Ctrl-C) and paste it in your favourite text editor.

Why is only the URL copied? Other fields were also highlighted. Why are they not included?

This is WYSINWYG (what you see is not what you get).

It is possible to export bookmarks as an html file, so why is this not possible with history?

OK, it is possible to query the sqlite3 database directly to get some history info but it's a bit cumbersome.

To do so,

  copy the sqlite (places.sqlite) database to some safe place then open the database (with 'sqlite3 places.sqlite')
  get the history info you are interested in with a sqlite query,
  e.g. select title,visit_count,site_name,url,description,last_visit_date from moz_places where url like '%support%';

But there is no simple (AFAIK) way to convert 'last_visit_date' (an integer) to something human readable.

So either include the whole selection when something is copied (WYSIWYG) or provide export history as an html file.

ps: why is there on option 'other' in the list of 'topics' ? pps: I already posted this comment but it got lost somehow

When my Firefox crashed today, I chose to restore it rather than troubleshoot. When it was done, my bookmarks icon had disappeared. Yet when I go to the individual websites, I can see that each one is still bookmarked. How can I restore the icon that used to be in the toolbar at top? Thank you for any help you can give. I have been using Firefox for many years now and this is the first time I encountered this problem.

I am lost. Not a computer savvy guy. I am very old guy. How do I download the latest version of Firefox. and what does it look like. That is what are its numerical designations. Thanks, Jim

Around 12/28/2024 my LastPass Password Manager extension dropped off my Firefox. When I tried to reinstall nothing happens except the flashing dots, which just go on. The LassPass extension does work on my Chrome browser (only used as a backup, Firefox using Duckduckgo rules)

Steps I have taken. Relaunched firefox. Rebooted laptop Deleted all Lastpass cookies. Did a firefox refresh. Tried to install older version of lastpass, they download but won't let me add.

Please Help? Thanks

My sister hit some sort of weird shortcut and now most websites are broken and have weirdly inverted colors, mostly google sites. Gmail is weird, Google Docs are weird, and a LOT more but too lazy to keep track/pull em up. Absolutely no clue what to do, and I dont really wanna factory reset my browser, so if someone by any miracle could tell me what shortcut she hit, thatd be helpful.

I prefer to use Startpage as my search engine with Firefox on my Mac. I have that set up, but it's so annoying that when I put something in the address or search bar, no search happens. Instead, I just get the Startpage home page and then have to retype the same thing in there! How do I solve this?
