My university uses Google Workspace, and I rely on Google Calendar to keep me organized. Starting on June 9, Google Calendar stopped working for me. I can open Google Calendar in a new tab using Firefox, but when I try to create a new event or edit an existing event, the page stalls out. When I click on the x in the tab, Firefox asks me if I really want to leave the page and I say "yes."

The workaround that I am using at this time is to create new events and edit existing events in Google Chrome instead of Firefox.

The problem was happening before my copy of Firefox updated to 114.0.1, and it is still happening.

Most of my bookmarks gone, in the sense, that they DON'T lead to the place listed, but to another place. For example, the link says "Health Hub", but logo is for Wells Fargo and the link is for that. Another one states, Austin Telco Federal Credit Union, and the link is to my home webmail.

How do I restore my bookmarks back? I've been adding the correct ones. But I don't see why I need to add them back. How can I get my bookmarks that I've had for years BACK?

I want to remove any and all auto suggested search options from the search bars within whatever website I visit, such as the one shown below. This is not related to auto suggested options with Firefox's URL bar. This is for the search bar within websites.

Let us say that I have been using Firefox for 'a few years', i.e., since it was Netscape. It is a good browser, but (IMO) there is something weird going on. When I run Firefox for the first time after rebooting my Windows 7 machine, it thrashes the disk for at least a full minute - and little else can be done while this is happening.

So, my question is this: What the heck is Firefox doing? More importantly, is there something that can be changed to stop this behavior?

I don't understand what happened in the last 10 minutes where both my pc and my laptop can no longer open youtube videos in a new tab by right-clicking. I haven't made any changes, I haven't downloaded anything or installed anything new. The last firefox update for both machines happened yesterday between 1 and 2 in the afternoon. 18 hours after an update, I just lose a basic feature? I'm able to right-click and open youtube vids in edge. So it has to be a firefox thing... Any ideas or suggestions?

I've attached a pic to show you my right-click menu. I've never seen this menu before.

My Ledger is having a problem linking to MetaMask in Firefox. This happened to me a couple months ago and I followed the steps in the MetaMask support article about this very problem. I got it to work right away at that time by going to "about:config" and setting u2f to "true." I followed those same instructions again today to no success. I also updated to the current firmware on my Ledger device. I've restarted Firefox, my Ledger, and my computer in every order I can think of and nothing has changed. I've changed u2f to "false" then restarted and then back to "true" and restarted and nothing changed. I'm out of things to try so I'm messaging in hopes of finding a solution. Thanks.

Hello,

This is an accessibility question. I believe firefox is the only browser that does not currently support aria-diabled. I was wondering if firerox is going to support it in the future or if there is a reason why they do not wish to support it?

I ask this because I know how much firefox values accessibility, so I was surprised to see it was not supported and assumed there was a reason why.

I have firefox for windows 8.1

NO. I am not updating windows.

Restarted the computer. Tried to start up firefox. It's borked. The bookmark toolbar is there, its just blank. The bookmarks still exist, i can see them in the dropdown menu. But anything I try to do on firefox just does nothing. I hit the home button it starts to go to google and stops. I click on options it just sits there (push button to cross crosswalk style)


No, I am not going to delete my one add on that isn't the problem. No, I am not going to go outside, move the antenna around, blow on a nintendo cartridge, or some completely nonsensical non entity that has nothing to do with the problem.
