Firefox Support Forum

Hi I am using Windows 10 on a laptop and Yahoo mail.

In the Yahoo contacts section, I cannot scroll up and down the list of contacts or scroll individual contacts information. I can scroll my emails.

All works if I use the Edge browser.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks John

I just posted a question re: my pull-down bookmarks menu disappearing. I stated in the question that my bookmarks themselves weren't gone, just the menu. I stand corrected. They are indeed "gone", i.e. completely inaccessible.

Dear Firefox community. I'm looking for some extension similar to Liner. I tried a lot, and nothing works. I've found, that they had had firefox version some years ago (proof https://twitter.com/getliner/status/857426145775460352). But now - not. I need something similar to it. With cross device selection and sync option.

I can't log in at https://addons.mozilla.org

It input my mail and password, wait for a loading screen and then I get a yellow box with the message "You have been logged out."

No matter how many times I try, I always get the same message. I can log in with my main account, but not with this one, which is the one where I have an add-on I'd like to update.

When I download a file .epub (error rate 1%) or .mobi (error rate 3%) or .zip (error rate 0.2%) to my ebooks folder I randomly end up with "filename.ext" of size 0 and one "filename(1).ext" of the correct size and correct content. That error rate is independent of file size but dependent of the file extension.

The download never fails and no file have any defects.

Configuration:

• Firefox 64bit 104.0 to 106.0.5 on Windows 10 Pro 22H2
• In Settings: Always ask you where to save files is checked
• Target folder (confirmed on each download) is a subfolder of Documents
• Only antivirus is Microsoft Defender.
• The user account is a Local account there is no one drive or other cloud storage solution active.

After 3 months of tests, I managed to solve the problem with: about:config and set browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone to false. I tough that option was gone in 2015, but apparently it is back.

That is however not a good solution.

Test I did:

• Adding the download folder as an AV exclusion: no changes.
• Disabling extensions: no changes.
• Disabling indexing on the target folder: no changes.
• Changed targeted folder: no changes.
• Disabling the file history backup: no changes.

I suspected either a program is monitoring Documents folders for changes and opening the downloaded file concurrently with Firefox. Since disabling Firefox av interface probably seriously modify the timing of directory change notification and Firefox file manipulation, I'm still not sure who is to blame for the problem. If you have any idea on how to debug that, let me know.

Fire Fox updated last night and this morning after doing a restart none of my bookmarks were working. I entered the troubleshooter mode but now I can't get out of it and all my passwords and bookmarks are gone.

I use Firefox mostly so it's a concern. MS O365 Support tested this problem with MS Edge so it is not a problem with another browser or MS O365. Thus I am keying in to Mozilla.

I have three One Drives: One Personal and Two Business, each Drive has a Unique Name. When I Save as PDF using Firefox browser, I expect to see all three as they are labeled in my Windows Explorer. Since I use mostly Firefox, I believe in the past, for years, I saw all three One Drives as labeled. However just today, I am saving a web page as a PDF to one of the Business One Drives. Yet that Business One Drive picked up the name of the personal One Drive exactly, making it confusing. The content of the renamed One Drive has not changed, the properties has not changed, only the name changed.

Some facts: My Firefox user name email is the same as my MS personal account email. It is the only common denominator I can think of. Firefox is Up to Date with Version 106.0.5

I have uploaded screen shots 1. Drives as seen in Windows Explorer and 2. Drives as seen when saving a web page as a PDF using Firefox.

Any idea what is the cause and fix?

Thank you so much! Robert

Having an issue with a link not displaying in Firefox 105.0.5 (64-bit).

It’s the “read more” link on this url: https://www.swansonvitamins.com/p/swanson-premium-triple-magnesium-complex-400-mg-300-caps

The “read me” link doesn’t display in Firefox but displays properly using:

      Brave (1.45.123)
      Chrome (107.0.5307.107) (Hate Google)
      Internet Explorer 11 (11.0.170)
      Microsoft Edge (107.1418.35)

I searched “firefox some links don't display” and tried the solutions I found to no avail.

Tried these:

      Turned VPN off.
      Started in Troubleshoot Mode.
      Removed cookies and site data for this site.
      Turned Enhanced Tracking off for this site.

With all of these settings (at once, not one at a time) and closing and reopening Firefox (in Troubleshoot Mode) the “read more” link still doesn’t display.

Attached image showing how the link displays in Brave and how it doesn't display in Firefox.

Thank you.

I get this when I attempt to go to https://www.crutchfield.com I have cleared cached data. Turned off the firewall and vpn. Any help would be great.

I have started in troubleshoot safe mode.. and disabled all extensions.. yet the problem persists the garbled text doesn't go away and today elementor also began crashing.. Hundreds of complaints like this, yet no one has found a solution.. except start in trouble shoot mode.. but then what?? continue working in trouble shoot mode? cannot add any extensions.. If firefox doesn't solve this problem.. I am moving to safari.

I'm looking for my recent history, but the history page lists only "today," which is Nov. 8, but nothing else for November. The next tab is for October. What I'm looking for is not in "Recently closed tabs" either, but there is no date information there. I'm trying to document when I posted a request at a vendor's website, and don't see the vendor at all.

Thanks

Why anyone would want import bookmarks and other bookmarks on the toolbar totally eludes me, given both live in the menu area. Can this be fixed in future updates PLEASE.

2 step authentication does not get saved that i have to enter a code every time when i log in. it should have been secure for then next 30 days as the check box selected. it seems it's a big issue for so many users that i found no solution. this issue is so bad and it easily is one of the reasons they are skipping this browser.

The login page at below URL becomes unresponsive when clicked on "Submit". However this works fine in Chrome browser: https://www2.benefitsolver.com/benefits/BenefitSolverView

Why is my Firefox browser asking for an update almost every few days? It is extremely annoying. Don't you guys can't get it right? Updates are fine and is a must but every few days? really?

Hello..Can someone help with this please... Only on this site: https://www.virginmedia.com/ Do I get this error : 400 BAD REQUEST Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

                                                                        Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

As said, this is the only site that I get this, I have tried contacting Virgine Media the only help they can offer is clear cache, which I have done, and makes no differance. I am a Virgine Media Customer, and need this site for my home page, I have tried using MS Edge, and the VM site works fine, but I dont want MS Edge, I would like to use Firefox, I have the latest version of Firefox v 107.0. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to sign into my Mozilla account and it asks for the code that was supposedly sent to my gmail account that will expire within 5 minutes. I never get the email...tried many times. Even added their email to my contacts for "smoother" sending.

I take this to be a best practice to not use more than one vpn at a time. Should those visiting and be given access to network be asked to turn off theirs if connected to same network setup? Should any extensions intended to sync favorites or 'read later' be turns off as well?
