An attempt to log in to the Bridgebase website fails.
Login using firefox ESR results in an all blue screen. The firefox plugin shockwave flash is installed.
My system is debian stretch using the LXDE desktop. I have also installed gnash, gnash-common, and browser-plugin-gnash in an attempt to solve this problem.
Login using Chromium browser fails with note to install flash player BUT dpkg -s flash-player-ppapi reports installed ok.
bridgebase is the only website that has this problem. I have contacted their support and they suggest problem is changes in flash or in the browsers.
Can you help?

I have had Firefox for years in linux, currently Debian Jessie. 8 days ago I installed Firefox for Android to my phone running Marshmallow. After installing I've created a Firefox Sync account on linux and logged into it from Android. All the bookmarks got transferred to Android just fine. There was nothing to sync back because installation on Android was new.
Since then (8 days ago), both devices report that they are connected to the Sync account. But nothing is synced. Both devices report that there are 2 devices but that the other device wasn't online for 8 days. And I've got mails that I only connected one device (but as I said, the account shows two devices connected on both platforms).
What's the problem? I will update to Debian Stretch soon, will a new desktop Firefox fix the thing automatically?
Confused,

I recently switched from using one of the new regular versions of firefox to the 52.2.1 ers version. From that moment onwards I have been experiencing crashes of Firefox when I visit certain websites. The crashes occur at random, without any warning and on many pages (for instance a few minutes ago the Mozilla Support website where I typed this question caused a crash).
There is NO crash reports if I go to about:crashes and the following folder ALSO has no crash reports;
C:\Users\Witschey\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports
However, the following folder has a file titled 'store.json.mozlz4' gets created every time I experience a crash:
C:\Users\Witschey\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\1ptspyj6.default\crashes
I have decompressed that file to be able to read its contents and this are ALL the contents from inside the file:
{"v":1,"crashes":{},"countsByDay":{},"corruptDate":null}
The contents of the file are ALWAYS the same crash after crash.
Can somebody tell me whether those contents provide a clue as to what is causing the problem and how to solve it?
For your information, I have completely uninstalled firefox, removed all remaining folders, even removed firefox entries in the registry. Nothing appears to be solving the issue. It keeps coming back.

Hello, I have been waiting for a verification email from Firefox Sync. I'm logging in through Firefox on another computer. The email address is a standard Earthlink.net one, and I have checked all folders, including Spam. I'm actively sending and receiving messages, so there's nothing wrong with that account.
Since you give a non-email address to add to my Thunderbird address book, I dug though dozens of other answers until I found something that might work. You state in one answer, "Try adding accounts.firefox.com to your list of allowed senders to keep your email provider from blocking the email". Proofreading?
I want to sync frpom my old XP computer to my "new" Win 7, but this is a real pain. Some of your answers to this suggest that this has been a problem for over 1 year. Any solution in sight? Does Firefox Sync still exist?

Firefox Suddenly and Randomly Shuts Down

About 1 week ago, Firefox started to randomly and suddenly shut down. It typically happens once, max twice a day and when it happens, it closes all open tabs without giving any warning and without showing any error or crash report. The shut down is triggered by a click, typically a click to open a link, or open a new tab - that is, it does not shut down by itself. Firefox does not reopen by itself, you must reopen it. When it reopens, it goes back to the latest situation prior to the shut down event, ie, it reopens all closed tabs and the closed web links - as if it were a crash. I did not find any particular pattern (ie, websites, time of the day, open apps, amount of time online, etc) - it appears rather random. No other issues reported - slow system, unwanted downloads, opening unwanted links, etc
EVENTS HAPPENED RECENTLY THAT MAY BE RELATED 1. My AV Provider (Bitdefender) sent me a message saying that it is about to stop supporting my OS (Win XP) 2. Yesterday another one of my AV shields (Malwarebytes Antiexploit) reported that an exploit code was blocked in Firefox, but without giving more details 3. Yesterday morning my PC asked me to log in by clicking on my user name. The thing is, I have never activated this option, as the PC is set to go directly onto the desktop, without asking to click on usernames, or typing passwords. After yesterday, it did not do it again.
WHAT I HAVE DONE - Run a full scan with Malwarebytes Antimalware - no issues found - Checked if all the installed plugins were up to date - no issues found - Opened Firefox in safe-mode - currently checking if the issue persists - Checked the Firefox crash log - no crash reported
OVERVIEW OF MY SYSTEM AND APPS - OS: Win XP SP3 32 Bit. Updates are still coming, mostly for MS Apps (Excel, Word, etc) - Browser: Firefox 52.3.0 32 Bit - AV running in the backgound: Bitdefender Free 1.0.21.1109 updated today; Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit Beta 1.10.1.24 updated - AV on-demand: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free 2.2.1.1043 updated - Plugins: as per list below
I initially suspected an exploit/ malware, but did not find an evidence as of now. Course of action suggested? Thanks.

how can I change the "show in folder" application

I used the "Download Bar" and "Download Status Bar" add-ons to see my downloads at the bottom of the window. Both have an option for every download to "show in folder", so to open a window of the directory that contains the file.
In both, the "show in folder" option launched the "Baobab" program, a disc usage analysis program. And if I removed the Baobab software, both plugins opened the download in "Gwenview", an image viewer.
Rather than both add-ons performing these strange actions independently, I would think there is a setting in firefox for the "view in folder" that is set to the wrong program. I cannot find it in the helper applications list (and of course "show in folder" is not a searchable file type).
Does anyone know which configuration file ties mozilla *actions* to specific progams -- and how to change those?

Hi,
We are using certificates that are issued by our Internal CA server to secure the connection between web browser to our internal web servers. Https connection is working fine with IE and Chrome. But we are getting trust error while accessing the internal application using Mozilla. We tried to import our Root and Intermediate Certificate in one of the browser and it is working fine. Hence we are looking for a method in which we can import our Root and Intermediate certificate to all Mozilla browser trusted store in all domain joined computers. Please let me know how we can achieve this?
Thanks in advance!!

I was troubleshooting an issue where Firefox was not loading an Extension as expected in Firefox 55 32bit. From looking at the Javascript calls the old Plugin which is still available was able to be loaded by Firefox. We found that plugin.load_flash_only was set to False on the affected browser. When we changed this back to plugin.load_flash_only = True, the extension then properly loaded.
I thought from documentation that the workaround was disabled in Firefox 53+? Was this recently changed or inadvertently re-enabled?

Windows cannot access the file for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program Firefox because of this error.
Program: Firefox File:
The error value is listed in the Additional Data section. User Action 1. Open the file again. This situation might be a temporary problem that corrects itself when the program runs again. 2. If the file still cannot be accessed and - It is on the network, your network administrator should verify that there is not a problem with the network and that the server can be contacted. - It is on a removable disk, for example, a floppy disk or CD-ROM, verify that the disk is fully inserted into the computer. 3. Check and repair the file system by running CHKDSK. To run CHKDSK, click Start, click Run, type CMD, and then click OK. At the command prompt, type CHKDSK /F, and then press ENTER. 4. If the problem persists, restore the file from a backup copy. 5. Determine whether other files on the same disk can be opened. If not, the disk might be damaged. If it is a hard disk, contact your administrator or computer hardware vendor for further assistance.
