I recently viewed aa.com in Firefox. Was having trouble with linked pages and switched to Safari. Not only did the linked pages work in Safari, but there was a difference in the homepage, as well. Why would this happen? Not sure whether to switch back, because of inconsistency of sites working well in Firefox.

I'm also having trouble with the browser: when I left my desk this morning for a 1/2 hour and came back, the history showed places I had not visited nor would I. Have you seen that before? Nancy

Firefox on Win10 has lost all of my logins. I tried launching a new profile, but no good. In the settings "logins.json" has become "logins.json.corrupt" and renaming it does nothing. The Firefox on my two android devices still have the logins intact is there a way to send them to the Windows version?

Someone broke into my firefox. A ex friends through into my face stuff she could only know if she or someone broke into my firefox history.

I deleted firefox browser on both my android and pc's and am brokenhearted because I checked it and it brought back memories going back to 2011.

I want this person who did this for her. The broke into my google, laptop, pc. She's pretty and rediculuos manipulitieve.

I've tried tech guys, computer stores, web sites. They want me delete everything and start over. I don't want to loose decades of memories. I have a vpn and they keep breaking into my phone and pc's.

Is there a goverment contractor worker that does this stuff on the side? I want to find them. I bought Audibles and Kindles on dark web to see if anyone there can help, and will read for next 10 years if I have to in order to find them. Need suggestion.

My tabs do not open correctly. They are squeezing in between the < and > and I have to try to find it? There is a big bracket showing between those two < > arrows.

I have no idea what happened but before the tabs started acting crazy, when I opened FireFox it was very, very small print that I had to resize with the 'Control, mouse up' move.

Please help. I've been trying every solution I've seen online to correct this but nothing works. I get that error message saying I'm offline with YouTube. Only on Firefox browser. I've turned off my add blockers and other add-ons but nothing helps. I've refreshed Firefox, dumped cookies etc. I'm running windows 10 and always get the latest version of Firefox. I use YouTube for my video entertainment instead of TV and am becoming extremely aggravated. Thank You, C.J. Johnson.

Dear all,

recently I picked up Mozilla again and saw some weird website formatting for some sites. It sometimes only affect certain areas (see attached picture Bad Formatting Amazon, where one part got squished and dragged down very much) and sometimes it affects the whole website (please refer to the other two pictures, one showing the proper formatting and the other one a formatting, which occurs over time, when leaving the website open)

Can I change any settings to combat this? Looking forward to your input!

Thank you and best regards, David

In the past few months, I've had problems with links that come from emails received on my account. There are a couple of senders who have links to a web page. When I go to that page, they often will have a youtube link, but the link is missing. Further, when working with the sender, they send another email with the web page pasted into it, I still don't see the link. They can see it before they send it.

I'm getting email direct from their website and am not using outlook or another client on my end. I have the same results on every browser I've tried. I'm not using any ad blocker and Firefox and Windows are up to date. I have also tried disabling my firewall. Nothing seems to help so far.

Anyone have an idea of what I might be missing?

Thanks!

I recently switched from Brave to FF. An annoying problem is that whenever I click web links in external programs such as Microsoft Teams, Outlook etc Firefox always opens it in a new window instead of a new tab like Brave did. Also the window it opens does not have my extensions enabled, indicating that it is some form of incognito or web view window or something? These are my settings.

How can I solve this issue?

Ebay: exclamation mark on the lock icon to the left of the address bar says connection not secure

Using Firefox v108 Win10.

When I do a search on eBay I get a search result page. Everything is fine.

The problem is, when I click on an item to get details, the address bar shows an exclamation mark on the lock icon. The message says, "Connection not secure. Parts of this page are not secure (like images)." It continues to say, your connection to this site is not private. Information you submit could be viewed y others (like passwords, messages, credit cards, etc.) "Your connection is not private and information you share with the site could be viewed by others."

No way am I using eBay like this. Date and time are good, cleared cache and restarted numerous times, rebooted modem/router couple times and ran cCleaner. The home page and search pages are ok. The problem is when I click on an item to get details.

Microsoft Edge works fine. I don't get the exclamation mark on the lock icon or the security message when using Edge. Called eBay and they said everything is ok but put in a work order... been months and never heard back from them. Comments/suggestions?

When I close Firefox and open it again the cookie deletion exception list is empty. The issue happens on my macOS/Linux/Windows installations.

I am using custom settings for the history. I setup Firefox to delete the history when I close it but I selected only Cookie, Cache and Offline websites data. All the other options (i.e. website settings) are unchecked.

Any ideas?

Thank you.
