Firefox Support Forum

If I try to connect to this site (see image) I receive the message shown in return. I only get this message using Firefox, no problems with other browsers (Chrome, Edge, Opera etc). Using Win 11. Any suggestions on a cure?

Every single time I watch longer videos, but especially livestreams, it ends up clogging up to 8GB of ram and then starts buffering, and uses sometimes upwards of 60% CPU.

I've -tried updating graphics drivers, -opening safe mode and watching from there, -turning off all addons and restarting, -turning off hardware acceleration, -installing h264ify

I'm kind of out of ideas. I hate this, I just want to be able to watch youtube normally. Please help.

Clicking on "open link in new tab" (by using a right click context menu) opens the new page in a new tab as well as in the original tab. The same behavior is exhibited in safe mode. This began with the penultimate update. Current version is 106.0.5 (64 bit}

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

How can I disable the option to make swiping my laptop touchpad move the browser navigation back or forward? I hate this feature and only ever activate it unintentionally.

I accidentally downloaded Japanese version of Firefox and I've changed to English as the primary language. But for some reason, all of the windows for "open file" "attachments" is in Japanese. I have both languages in my mac but I have my primary language as English. I made sure by going over the settings, removing Japanese, restarting and going back to Firefox to see if it fixed the issue. I also removed Japanese as an alternative language on Firefox as well but nothing seems to fix the problem.

The attachment is what I see every time whenever I open a window in Firefox. No other program has this problem. I can still use the window in Japanese but it bothers me not knowing what is causing this issue.

Today I unistalled firefox on my windows laptop and then installed it again. Now my saved passwords are gone.

1. can I get them back? 2. if I can't - will the passwords be erased on all firefox servers so that no one can access the information? I hope so...

Thanks for you assistance

On or about Nov 3rd, after restarting Firefox (106.0.5 (64-bit)), I cannot get the "Bubblez" game to load. I am a long time Firefox user, but consider myself a Novice in technical terms.

The game is at https://wellgames.com/free_online/bubblez/

Thinking the game server might be down, I tried the Microsoft Edge browser, and the game plays as usual. I have not(to my knowledge) changed any settings or preferences inside Firefox, not added any new addons. I restarted Firefox in SafeMode, and the game still fails to load. It is stuck on the green circle as indicated in the attached screenshot.

Any help will be appreciated.

I have tried to navigate to window using window keys, tried maximizing, and tried renaming xulstore.json (localstore.rdf does not exist). I tried reinstall - no change. I renamed the mozilla folder and reinstalled so now have a new version running correctly. I would really like to restore bookmarks and history (at least) from the old install. Any suggestions would be appreciated. ( windows 10 )

I need to create a new profile because I am having problems, the old one appears to be corrupt. I need to keep all my extensions, settings, history, tabs, bookmarks, etc.

So from the profile that has all the settings, I tell Firefox Sync to sync. It says it's syncing.

Then I quit Firefox, open with the profile manager, create a new blank profile, and sign into Firefox Sync using the same Firefox Account.

Within a few minutes, sync completes, and my new browser profile is exactly like an old copy of firefox that I deleted maybe 5 years ago. All my old extensions, tabs, everything.

I need to sync my CURRENT Firefox so I can restore a clean profile to it. Not restore a setup from a copy I deleted years ago.

I've tried this process about 4 times now and the result is always the same. Firefox sync does NOT see my current tabs, extensions, bookmarks, settings, anything. It keeps the ones from years ago no matter what.

I don't want to delete my firefox account and start a new one because it will cause me to lose access to all my forum comments.

I need a very simple solution to making my scroll bar wider...it suddently became very thin and I have a difficult time using it....if I can't fix it soon, I'll have to remove firefox and try another browser....I would rather continue to use firefox but, this narrow scroll bar makes if very difficult to use for me. I'm not good at computers so need a very simple solution if one is available. Thanks for any help

I click a link for Amazon for a book whether it is a given link via facebook or discord or through google and it will take me to a 'page is not found' page. If I open it in a private browser, it will pop up the actual page I wanted to go to. I can copy the page address from the private browser into my current regular browser and it will work. The addresses are completely exactly the same. But for whatever reason the links take me to 'page is not found' instead of the actual page.

When I open Firefox it opens to a totally blank page. If I open another tab it looks like it should look with a search bar and quick access buttons. How do I get this info to the first tab when it opens?

I have my default yahoo mail font set as Modern - Small, but after I updated Firefox, the font displays as if it were Modern Narrow. It displays correctly in other browsers, but not in Firefox. I tried changing the default font in Yahoo Mail Settings. Other fonts work fine, but when I switch back to Modern - Small, it looks very squished.

Firefox only works on initial opening, then will not load the page unless the cache is emptied. Refreshing the browser does not resolve this issue. This issue only occurs in the Firefox browser. Chrome and Edge connect Salesforce Chat every time.

All my menu texts are so TINY now, that I can't read them, but the browser page is SO WIDE that I can't ever see a whole page and I have to scroll from side to side to read things, which is a ROYAL PAIN as I miss seeing a lot of things. No one can seem to help. I tried the limited percentage things, 67% used to work but now that is too big and when I go smaller I can't read ANY of the text, it is TOO TINY! I can't do my work! The screen shot won't paste on here.

Why have the English date format questions been archived without an adequate response? I, too, have Firefox English GB version and my Windows date format settings are dd/mm/yyyy but Firefox still uses the American format. This is not rocket science!! Please sort this out.
