Firefox Support Forum

I'm using 107.0.1 vers. At this link it states: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-or-choose-another-viewer#w_use-a-different-pdf-viewer-for-downloaded-pdf-files

Disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer

You can also set a different third-party PDF viewer to handle PDF files, instead of Firefox’s built-in PDF viewer. To switch from using the built-in PDF viewer to another viewer: 1. Click the menu button and select . 2. In the panel, go down to the Applications section. (SO WHERE IN THE HELL IS THIS SECTION???) YOU CAN'T DO I never selected Mozilla to open any pdf and there's no where to opt out or change based on what all the troubleshooting tips say... All these tips must be located on a much older version of Firefox cause they ain't in my version OR they are hid under some dubious section... Pretty frustrating....when you want to use Adobe and can't cause I'm locked in under Firefox....don't know how that has happened unless it was done automatically under one of the many current upgrades that have been coming down over the last month.

after reinstalling Firefox, i no longer am able to log into any websites example: you tube, sites, etc. I've check for updates but there's none besides my current version of Firefox which so am in a weird predicament. please help thanks!

I have a laptop and use Mozilla Firefox as my browser. I am having trouble with Amazon.com Prime Video, my homepage states it thinks I am traveling. Nothing has changed. The problem comes and goes but I can't figure out a pattern. Amazon has not helped during calls or chats, it is a mystery. Because Amazon thinks I am traveling I cannot view most video content such as Starz channel, I am limited. Any tips? Thanks!

When I press the "menu" button in the top right of the screen, nothing happens. If I hover over the button, it says "open application menu" but clicking does absolutely nothing. The same happens with the account button to the left.

What can I do to fix this?

I run a Windows laptop, version 8.1. Two days ago the monthly system rollup occurred followed by Firefox browser updates. The user comment section of the Foxnews website disappeared completely. I can still login and out but nothing appears for any article comments. I see the comments are still there when I open a Chrome browser on my Android phone so I know Fox didn't discontinue user commenting. I have looked at add-ons, ad blockers, etc but no success reactivating this feature.

Anyone else having this problem? If so, is there a known cause/solution? Thanks

I've been using FireFox for a long time. My account is installed on two computers. The operating system of one is windows 8.1 (from work) and the other is windows 10. (from home) On December 7 or 8, 2020, my login list was suddenly deleted while I was working on my account with windows 8.1. I turned SYNC back on, but I couldn't get any of my recordings.

When I opened the same Firefox on my windows 10 computer at home, my login list was erased in less than 5 seconds.

I followed all the procedures on your help page. My login list is automatically erased when SYNC is on. I tried many times. It automatically erased my login list that I created from backup every time SYNC is on.

I request your help from Mozilla and Firefox authorities and review my account if necessary. I would like to see and use my November 2022 login list the same way if possible.

Thank you for your support

'Why isn't there a way to stop scripting/redirecting when you click on a link? For example you click on a link thinking you are going to download something, but you are redirected to an AD site, or a Game site. Someone is racking up "clicks" for cash.

I.E. had a way to stop scripting altogether, or to allow you to choose to be be "asked" if you want to be redirected to another page, when a site wants to be redirected years age. So it shouldn't be that hard for you guys to set it up too.

I'm sure you just didn't think of it, but it is becoming a common problem with many sites, where someone manages to hack in a redirect an make some money getting "clicks", and worse, tricking people into downloading bogus shit programs like chromius.

I have a dozen old embedded device modules (circa 2003) which can host a web page. When I access the device through my local intranet (192.168.0.xxx), the web page displays correctly. However, when the same page is accessed through my DNS service (xxx.gotdns.org:xxxx) over the web, the Firefox INSPECT:network tool indicates that the document is type:text and displays the HTML in a text format. The first line of the HTML document is :<!DOCTYPE html>.....

These devices are non-secure information-only devices, but at least Firefox allows for HTTP: exceptions.

However, I cannot understand why Firefox treats the same content differently depending on the path. Is there a way to force Firefox to actually look at the contents of the packet and treat it accordingly?

A couple weeks ago Youtube videos stopped working on my PC. It keeps spinning and tells me to try restarting my device which does not help. Have tried several suggestions I've found, like clearing cache and cookies and history, disabling extensions, but not uninstalling and reinstalling because Youtube plays fine in Edge and also plays in Firefox on the other user on my PC. I appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

I have had 2 sites produce this error box in place of the target Web Site (See Picture). I have read previous topics about this and have followed the instructions with no positive results. FYI, clearing the web site's cookies, clearing Cache and disabling Hardware acceleration.

The first was https://www.walmart.com. After leaving a "Feedback" 2 weeks ago it appears as if they were able to fix the problem. However, the site is not as important as my Medicare PPO provider. I tried loading previous versions of Firefox, but that did not help.

In both instances the LOL "support" people's response was to try a different Browser. So, I reluctantly loaded Google Chrome and it worked perfectly. From my perspective, this eliminates everything to do with my machine setup.

I keep getting this message on a lot of sites I visit: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.competitivecyclist.com/?" on this server. Reference #18.94973017.1672583103.2817349

What is going on? How can I fix this?

When i reinstalled firefox everything was going fine until i noticed that i was being logged out of my accounts every start. I deleted my user folder and reinstalled firefox and its doing the same thing again. How do i fix this issue?

(sorry for bad english) After closing girefox while on window mode, (accidentaly) I reopened it realising none of my accounts were signed in and all websites (youtube, adsense, gmail etc) needed google verification. and they were treating me like i was visiting first time after download. Why is that? Now I have to bring all my data back!!!???!! I am using Windows 8.1 and the latest version of firefox. No other browser installed...
