I was playing Backyard Monsters, then update came, game couldnt connect anymore , see prntscr link for sort like adress
1st error msg was like cant connect to the prntsrc adress, then it was a 404 and now 502 error.
first i thought its an server maintence, but day later still not working, i should get at least an flash message , allow or not, i try'd trouble shooting from basic till flash, i assume it should connect to a tracker or a script, so i even try'd go in security and choose advance and uncheck all, so all will be allowed.
i only use ff for the game, i even try'd firefox nightly, and with no account loaded, ccleaner full options on cleaner and reg. so i'm out of ideas, oh and google didn't work for years, only browser i haven't try'd is safari.
so i tryd, to be clear, basic, theme off, addons off, ccleaner, firewall, no account, diffrent firefox, flash TroubleShooting. and all this bc i allowed a ff update. *facepalm* but lesson learnd oh and maybe someone knows where i can get older firefox files, im not scared for sec. risks.

When using Linux to connect to networks, sometimes I need to download a certificate, so I can use it when trying to connect to that network. Firefox absolutely refuses to download .crt files. Firefox will only ever give me the message "this certificate is already installed". I had to download Opera so I could download the certificate so I could connect to my university's network. I can't change what Firefox does with .crt files in Preferences>General>Applications because it doesn't try to download it, and I don't have the option to add something.

Every time I try to download any files attached to my mails and from Google Drive, nothing happens. What is the cause of this problem and how can I fix it? I've been encountering this for some quite time now, and every time I encounter it I switch to Google Chrome and download the files from there; which, for me, is very tasking since I prefer to use this browser. So please, fix this issue.

Hello,
Someone try to add me in a group call of 3 people in Facebook. However a message suddendly say it does work only with Google Chrome. Is it true and why ? Because on the other side it is possible to call one person but not 2 ... I do not get the point of this restriction.
Does someone have a clue about this weird situation ? Thanks for your attention
PS : I have cleaned my Navigator Cache.

After update to OS X Catalina no right click

Whenever I use something like Google news I would right click on a link and "Open in a new tab", working my way down the page of links. I've updated to Catalina and now right click might work for two or three but it may not. If I go to another program and back to firefox, right click won't work. If I multi-click on the right button occasionally a new tab will open with the link but I never again get the menu.
This started after I updated to Catalina. It's the same on an iMac, Mac Pro, two different mac minis and a mackbook air.
I have started in safe mode. I have deleted all add ons. It works for a time or two but then goes back to no right click available.

Not sure if this forum is monitored by anyone from the development team, just wanted to "thank" them for not giving me an option to completely disable the update prompts and forcing me to use the policies.json file...
What you've managed to achieve with those annoying nags is instead of me updating the browser through Help->About every month or two when I get the need to restart it, is never updating it anymore until a site I need breaks... which probably won't happen anytime soon until StackOverflow decides to require a newer version than 69... It's way too much effort going to your site, downloading the full version and manually installing it every couple of months and then manually adding policies.json again when you've being accustomed to just going to Help->About for the same thing... so, thank you once again for managing to make my machine (and probably the ones of many other people too lazy to say anything) much more vulnerable!
I've been wasting my time searching for workarounds ever since version 63 came out and setting "app.update.doorhanger" to false in about:config was an acceptable solution but you had to break that as well...
I've been using Firefox ever since it came out all those years ago and will probably continue to use it but it will be only because I hate Chrome even more... guess I will be stuck with an old version from now on... hope you're happy with your "great" solution to keep people up-to date...
It's fine that you want inexperienced users to be protected but why does it have to be at the expense of people who know what they're doing and want to decide for themselves when to update? What was so wrong with the ability to hide update nags from about:config where casual users never touch, that you had to remove it completely?
How to delete history, cookies, and cache on OPEN

I administer public access computers in a public library. We use Firefox as our primary browser, and I have configured it to clear cache, history, and cookies on exit to protect patron privacy.
Recently, I have experienced a few instances where this did not work. Upon confirming that there weren't any minimized windows open in the taskbar, I could re-open the browser and access the previous patron's email inbox. This should not happen because clearing the cookies should remove any active logins.
My hypothesis for why this happened is that the Firefox process did not terminate properly, preventing it from clearing the data.
My question is: Is there a way to tell Firefox to clear the data when it *OPENS* as well as closes? This would allow for the data to be wiped if Firefox crashes or does not shutdown properly.
Firefox now requires a triple click on certain web pages where double click used to work

Recently using Firefox on certain webpages that allow for double-clicking on menu items (FortiAnalyzer web interface) or on VM console sessions in a new tab (VMware vSphere/vCenter) I know have to triple-click to perform what would normally be a double-click action. My two examples are as follows:
FortiAnalyzer (v6.2.1) web interface: Viewing a table of firewall traffic, normally a double-click on any entry in the table would drill-down into more details for that entry.
VMware console (v6.7): When using vCenter client/HTML5 (NOT the web client/FLEX) and opening a console session to a VM, while in the VM, normal double-click actions, for example icons on the desktop, do not function and a triple-click is needed to perform double-click actions.
My specs: Win 10 Pro (1903) Firefox v 69.0.3
These still work in Chrome as intended. I've tried in safe mode with no add-ons enabled as well tried refreshing Firefox.

The print contains the page header and footer but skips all the content. It works in Chrome.

Hi, Firefox 69.0.3, Win 10 home Firefox keeps on blocking popup windows that are an important part of a hyperlink. I've disabled "popup blocker", but the same thing happens randomly with many sites, I've tried enabling popups and adding an exception, but it doesn't help. This behavior is not seen with IE or Chrome. Please advise.
FF 69 (Ubuntu) slows/freezes when I change focus to pw box

FF 69 Ubuntu 18 Dell Inspirion 13 5000 When any login page opens I can easily move the focus to the id box and enter the id. When I try to change the focus to the pw box, the process slows dramatically, to the point that if press a key a few seconds pass before the little dot appears. Worse, there is no indication that the focus is in the pw box, no blinking cursor, no color change. Worser, on some sites the computer just freezes with the legend in the bottom of the window saying, Waiting for x, x not being the same everytime, but I think it is other websites reading or planting cookies. At this point I reboot the computer. I have deleted and reinstalled FF - no extensions, no alterations - and the problem persists. I have wiped cookies, I have added/deleted hardware acceleration. Nothing I do seems to alter this behavior. On this machine I have successfully entered those same sites with Chrome (77.) Any advice/tips/incantations will be gratefully appreciated.
Firefox light theme conflicts with KDE Breeze Dark theme/ GTK light theme settings

Using KDE Neon 5.17 with Firefox 69.02, if I use a dark theme with KDE (Breeze Dark), I can't override Firefox to fully be a light theme. This was working fine up until today, so something recent changed in an update.
KDE is set to "Breeze Dark" as the theme. KDE's option for GKT2 and GTK3 theme ( settings -> gnome/gtk application style) are set to "Breeze" (light theme). Firefox's theme is set to "light" (it was working with "default" as well before).
Almost all GUI elements are defaulting to dark. Menu items, tooltips, scrollbars, checkboxes etc. are dark. Browsing to bugzilla.mozilla.org (which seems to detect if you're in a dark theme/mode) will display in a dark css theme.
I've set the following in about:config, but it doesn't seem to fix anything: ui.systemUsesDarkTheme;0 (fixes the CSS bugzilla issue but nothing else) widget.content.gtk-theme-override;Breeze (or Breeze:light) widget.content.allow-gtk-dark-theme;false
Basically, despite the fact that i've flipped every switch I can think of to tell firefox "use a light color scheme", it still wants to be in the system's overall dark theme. And again, this was working fine a day ago.
