Firefox Community Forum

Hello. I am setting up a site on Linux server using Apache as reverse proxy , with ASP.NET as application server . since installing SSL , I had few mixed content blocking that i was managed to fix using CSP directive in Apache configuration file. site has no issue with all browser except Firefox. the only issue is that in admin section , to configure a option. system will load a js file that simply a dropdown with list of options to choose from . when using Firefox , it tries to redirect that page to login page . for test , i clicked on the link i located in Developer tools , which directed me to login page , entered my credentials, and scripts loads showing the drop down box and ok button. is been 3 weeks i been looking for every solution and i have done everything .. but nothing have worked. now I am resort to having to use other browsers if i need to use that functionality in admin page. In page header file name : login , location : http://MYDOMAIN.ca/login?ReturnUrl=%2FAdmin%2FDiscountRulesCustomerRoles%2FConfigure%3FdiscountId%3D6%26_%3D1702682353293 , which are not correct . and browser such as Brave and Safari dose not show different path and file name and everything is correct. dose anyone know how to fix this .. ? i saw a solution mentioned as stated resting Firefox ,but can not find a way to reset , but i have reinstalled Firefox and constantly having this issue on this single section of the page . Thanks.

Hi!

I am getting messages that I am blocking ads for many of my internet requests. I had never received these before but all of a sudden I started to get them. I have tried a number of things but nothing works.

I am running Windows 11 and do not have any Ad blockers.

Opening PDFs automatically with Firefox and, without any changes I might make, saving them with the download function in Firefox, actually ruins the functionality and data entry function of that file. Specifically this happens with PDF files downloaded from the (not all that amusing) PDFs from the FINCEN, (US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network). I do not see why and how Firefox thinks it is allowed to change files that are simply downloaded and saved on Firefox.

In other words, it seems that Firefox strips away certain "permissions" and/or "functions" (like built-in lookup, menu or choice boxes). This means that the file so downloaded via Firefox can no longer be used to properly fill in data, or to look up and choose data items within the file. (I see many times that ANYTHING having to do with "permissions" tends to be an intractable and unsolvable problem for software makers & experts, so, if you do not know right away how to solve the problem, it will probably take you several years to figure this out.)

The PDF in question is created by a government agency. If you have ever dealt with a government agency, then you know that they act sort of like Adobe or Microsoft: "They don't respond, or they do respond & say they do not understand, and if they understand, they are either unwilling or unable to fix the problem."

If there is a switch or option within Firefox, which lets me tell Firefox "Save this file exactly like it is received, nothing added or removed!", that would be nice. I just have not found such an option yet, and it would be nice if it might get provided someday.

I will share my browser data, but I am sort of convinced that a detailed question like mine will not be addressed within that shared data.

I sign onto BROTHER-USA.COM to inquire about ink for my Brother printer. I key in the model and get a "Drivers Search Results" with no printer found nor displayed. Keeps looping or searching, I suppose. This same inquire works fine with any other browser, but not Firefox. Can you advise which Firefox settings is preventing any response from the Brother website? Thanks, Joe

The "never translate x" button is greyed out. Why?

Can´t add the language to the "never translate" languages in the settings either.

Thank you for your time and effort kind strangers! :)

Whenever i click install theme, it seems to just load indefinitely and doesnt actually download it. It just gets stuck as shown in the image, with it sliding back and forth.

My password/bookmark/history disappeared with Windows recent upgrade. How do I get everything in that area?

Also, I opened the Share option and it populated with something I did not want shared. I attempted to delete the entry but it is too long. How do I remove that entry? Could you help by walking me through these issues?

If this is a duplicate of the issues I appologize.

Your help would be greatly appreciated,

Hi Support Team. Thanks for being there. It's late at night so probably my brain isn't processing your help topics correctly, but I was asked to install a firefox update on my windows 10 desktop system, and I clicked on allow it to make changes to my computer and when I came back to firefox my bookmarks have completelhy disappeared and the system won't let me restore them or add new ones. i can't understand the whole profiles thing and I don't want to close my current windows and lose all my tabs. If there isn't an easy way of fixing this problem without closing everything and restarting, then I'll just have to live without bookmarks. Any suggestions? Thanks. [edited email from public]

99% of the time, site's work just fine with strict cross-domain referral policies. Sometimes they don't. I don't want to change my browser-wide setting everytime I use ONE site. Is there anyway to add a site-specific exception for referrers?

I am running windows 11 and every time I go to backup my C: drive my system tells me that "I dont have a Disc to back up fo" ? I am retired now so I dont use a computer as much as I use to. I got this system new 6 months ago. It came with Win 10 on it. I have not explored this system fully yet. All this time I did not know it was not backing up automatically. I do remember on earlier versions of windows they had a function that allow you to see the contents of each drive . It also showed each of the partitions on your drives and showed how much was allicated to Windows , recovery, free space. and so on.... I cant seem to find that function on this system. ??? Can you please try to help me with my problems?

Thank you !!

After doing the last up date of Fox Fire on or about Aug 27, have not been able to load Fox Fire with all of the previous files, start menu bookmarks/history. Tried restarting as suggested but no luck. Benn dealing with this for several days. Unable to get to Outlook to get email, etc,. Is going to be difficult to email me as not able to get into my email. Did several restarts as explained in Fox fire. I might be able to get into email using my phone.

All the help articles do not really explain how to restore Fox Fire to a previous point. At least in all the articles I read.
