Firefox Support Forum

Hi,

Ever since my computer updated to the most recent version of windows (shown below) tumblr has been showing 9 new notifications constantly, even when I cleared the cache on firefox (which is fully up to date). It's only having this glitch on my laptop as well; on my personal computer at home, it shows notifications like normal. I've sent in a bug report to tumblr and I'm posting it here with firefox because I'm not sure which one the bug is with. I've also tried going into troubleshooting mode, so I know it's not happening because of an extension I have installed.

computer information: Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 21H2 Installed on ‎10/‎23/‎2020 OS build 19044.2364 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4190.0

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-5015U CPU @ 2.10GHz 2.10 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.6 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor (device name/id and product id removed for security)

While this is certainly annoying, I understand it's not a very important bug to poke at so I understand if it takes time to get back to me, and I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season

We are experiencing an error when trying to upload a large file using an HTML input uploader in Firefox. The file upload process is working properly in Chrome, but we are encountering issues when using Firefox. We have included a sample for reference and request assistance in resolving this problem. Please let us know if you have any suggestions for a solution.

sample : <input type="file" id="upload"> <button id="button">flie upload</button> <script> document.getElementById('button').addEventListener("click", function() { //debugger; var file = document.getElementById('upload').files; check(file[0]); }) function check(file) { return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) { var fileReader = new FileReader(); fileReader.readAsDataURL(file); fileReader.onload = function () { return resolve(fileReader.result); }; fileReader.onerror = function (error) { return reject(error); }; }); } </script>

I am not getting sound from any applications on Firefox. I have uninstalled and re-installed with no luck. The computer sound works fine on other browsers and was working as recently as 4 days on Firefox but now no videos, games, etc will generate any sound. Went to the common solutions and no help. Is there any other solutions out there ?

Firefox v108.0.1 was working fine installed on my P: drive (P:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox). That drive developed a number of bad sectors and finally gave out. I replaced the drive with an identical one, but it turns out the backup of the drive was also corrupted and so I had to re-install all the programs that were located there, including Firefox.

Using another browser (Edge), I successfully downloaded the "Firefox Setup 108.0.1.exe" file from the Mozilla site to a different drive and ran it from there. Unfortunately, I failed to specify the P: drive as the location and it installed to the C: drive instead. When I ran it after the install, it worked fine though. All my preferences and bookmarks, and stored passwords etc. were intact.

But space on my C: drive is very tight and I needed it on my P: drive instead. So I tried re-installing again, this time on my P: drive, and the setup program said it was removing it from the old location first. Then it installed FIrefox on my P: drive. But when it started up this time, none of my profile data was there. And as soon as I tried to go to any website (e.g., http://google.com or https://google.com) I received a "The connection was reset" message or "Secure Connection Failed" message (with an error code of PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR).

I checked my Windows Defender firewall to ensure the Firefox.exe application was on the list of apps with permissions to go through the firewall. I removed the one that was there and then re-added it to be sure. But that didn't help.

I checked my Anti-Virus app (Kaspersky) and tried turning off File Anti-Virus and/or Web Anti-Virus protections, but that had no effect either.

I'm not having any problems using my Edge browser or other applications that access the internet through their own methods (e.g., Microsoft Outlook). And I can use the Ping app in a CMD window to reach both internal and external servers and resources (like my network printer). I can enter my printer's network address in Edge to display its control dashboard, but I cannot use Firefox to do the same.

I tried clearing my cache and all data and history etc., to no avail. I tried uninstalling and re-installing Firefox, but that didn't make a difference. I still get the same errors.

I'm at a loss as to what to do next to get this working.

I'm running Firefox 108.01 on Windows 10. Lately I've been having an intermittent issue when I click on a link and go to another page. When the new page is displayed, the back button (arrow) is grayed out so I can't navigate back to the previous page that I came from.

I have been using Firefox since it came out. But now i cannot download any cc statements or hyperlink printer items. I went to the download file button and it has something called Pocket in its place. I am so confused and not happy. Can anyone help me get this stupid Pocket out of the browser?

I tried the steps deleting the place.sqlite and such from my profile folder. I can save bookmarks to the bookmarks toolbar, and other bookmarks but if I have bookmark folder on the bookmarks bar - I can't save inside of that folder. I can drag it from bookmark bar into said folder but not save inside it....

how do I fix this?

Browser simply gets stuck. For example, a page loads and it will not play video, whereas in two other browsers there are no issues. Refreshing page does not work. Closing tab and reloading page does not work. Browser doesn't remember desktop size and defaults to full screen, usually after an update.

Is it possible to have Firefox check to see that it has the latest version of a Webpage in cache? I load pages that I have not used for a long time and Firefox loads an old version of the page requiring me to refresh (F5).

Ever since I downloaded Firefox 108.0.1 on Dec 16, I have been unable to access IQMAGS. I get the message "SECURE CONNECTION FAILED ERROR CODE PR-CONNECT-RESET-ERROR"

Hi,

I've followed all the directions to fix the restore tabs issue that suddenly started occuring, but when I follow the directions. The tabs still mysteriously disapper when I reopen my browser.

How do I fix this?

Is it possible? Scenario:

Open a tab on mobile phone. View tab on PC. Close tab on PC.

I don't want this tab open anywhere anymore. Is there a way to close the phone tab from my PC? Not being able to do so makes this feature cumbersome and of limited use.

Thanks

Using FF 108.0.1 Iare getting the search.spark browser. The home button brings up my homepage (Google.com). None of the suggestions I have seen have helped (that includes Malwarebytes, hitman, IO Bit,Zenma, jiggling settings, etc). I need to get rid of this annoying POS. BTW I DID NOT D/L the suspicious extention mentioned in the article.

Hello!

Currently, I have a network printer added to my computer. When I want to print something with Firefox (either a webpage or a PDF) and the printer is online everything works fine. However, when the printer is offline (turned off) the printing dialog stays on "Preparing preview". I tried waiting for over 5 minutes and the dialog keeps loading on "Preparing preview".

I tried replicating this issue in Chrome. Chrome just switches to another printer if the currently selected printer is offline. The remote printer doesn't even appear on the printers list if its offline.

I found this issue which describes the problem I'm experiencing, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427285 However, it seems that it wasn't solve.

Is there any way to fix this issue? Thanks
