Tell me how to fix the problem I described. I'm using Linux Mint Cinnamon (21.3) on my two Dell Latitude laptops (E6420 & E6430) Another question regarding the Firefox browser is how to contact a insecure web site manager that I have no telephone number for. I shouldn't end the sentence that way.

hello Since the 129.01 update yesterday 14-08-24, internet access for the desktop died completely. I used Microsoft Edge (don't ask what release) as a back up browser, that failed citing a DNS error.

Not knowing what to do I found a really old version of Firefox and installed that.

Things are coming back to life but I need to install v129.00 because that worked.

I had to use another computer (laptop win11) for access.

Need help so I can cancel the order for the new desktop.

2 DAYS AGO I got an XUL error notice in my UP TO DATE Firefox. Tried turning on or off at times hours apart no use.

Getting by with other browsers in the meantime. But today At about 1:40 PM CDLST 15 August 2024

my computer locked up completely. Several dialog boxes stacked up and mouse and keyboard were ineffective it gave a virus name which I did not write down and a purported Microsoft number to call but I ignored it. Turned off my computer turned on and ran scan with Malwarebytes software NO INDICATION OF INCIDENT


The help page advice for XUL does not have the assurance NOTED AT BOTTOM.

IS THE FOLLOWING TRUE FOR ALL REMEDIES INVOLVING UNINSTALLING AND REINSTALLING FIREFOX? INCLUDING XUL ERRORS?

ASSURANCE The solution is to remove the Firefox program and then reinstall Firefox. (This will not remove your passwords, bookmarks or other user data and settings which are stored in a separate profiles folder.)

Lately I have been having low memory warnings, but still have some things I can dump to make room.

I've always been able to type a new web address directly into my browser bar. Firefox no longer allows me to do that. It reverts back to the original address, even when opening a new tab to start over. I also can no longer type into the Google search box. It tries to take me to the browser bar instead, and then I can't go anywhere. Help please!

I am on FF 129.0.1 on Windows 10 laptop. I download financial data from several sources using the .qfx format which is fed into personal finance software (Moneydance). Everything works well and download history shows all downloads from banks, but does not include downloads from my brokerage. Is this something the brokerage is doing or some setting that I can control. Thanks for any help in explaining this.

I was tired of confirming and there was a box offering to stop the pop up. I clicked it and now I can not delete anything. I checked settings and added the site to allow popups that did not help.

Last few weeks, my gmail in particular has been super slow, and often get "can't connect, retry, error 001 or similar. Retry rarely works, sometimes page refresh fixes it but often that's super slow and have to do it more than once to actually get back to gmail. Other sites from google, calendar, voice, contacts also slow but don't use them regularly so not sure of it all.

Internet connection is fine, same as always (speedtest.net). Refreshed Firefox, disabled extensions (same as have had for long time without any issues), went back a version, (128, haven't tried 130 yet). These even created new profiles, so that's not it either.

Only thing I haven't tried, which shouldn't be necessary), would be to totally and completely (is there a utility to do that?), then reinstall.

Opera and Chrome have absolutely NO issues like this so it's got to be a Firefox issue, but I'm at a loss as to what else to fix/try, etc.

I've used and loved Firefox since the Netscape days, and would hate to have to move to something else but for now, since this is SO frustrating, I'm moving to Opera.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I'm a very novice Windows 10 user and my ISP is Earthlink. When I open Firefox it brings up my start page in Earthlink - which has a Google window. Never had this problem before but now when I try to Google anything I get the above application notice. Received one response from the community and while the problem may be mine because I'm a very novice user the suggestions didn't seem to work or I was doing things wrong.

Thanks, Jim

I go on the https://www.medicare.gov website to look at Medicare claims. I get an email from them when there are new summary notices and I click on the link to view them. That brings me to the login page and after I log in I get a page that lists summary notices starting with the most recent. For each notice, there are three links you can click: download, print, and open. I've always clicked "open", which has always brought up the summary I chose, I think in a new tab or window, but I'm really not sure, it's been a while.

This time when I clicked on "open" for the first summary notice, it stayed in the same tab and under the title listing the particular notice I got the following:

" Firefox Can’t Open This Page

To protect your security, api.medicare.gov will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window.

Learn more… "

So I went back to the original list, right clicked "open" and clicked to open in a new tab and got the same error. As I was writing this just now I noticed that the error message says you need to open it in a new window, so I just tried that instead of a new tab, but I still got the same error message.

Interestingly, I thought I'd check clicking "download" just to make sure I could get my new notices. That opened a new tab and the notice came up!! Now I'm sitting here trying to remember if I used to click "open" or "download" and feeling like this computer drives me crazier and crazier every day I use it!

I am submitting this anyway for two reasons. First of all, if I'm confused other people are probably also confused. Secondly, I want to know if there's anything wrong on my end that I should be fixing or if this is a problem on Medicare's end. Obviously I want to let them know if it's their problem so that it can be fixed.

I just got a notice about a Firefox update but I haven't installed it yet and I haven't tried this in any other browser (I really hate using Chrome, especially for something as private as Medicare, but if that will help you please let me know and I can try it there).

One other thing that may or may not be relevant. I've had my Social Security and Medicare accounts for many years. Recently I received a notice from Social Security that they're upgrading to a more secure login system (sorry I've forgotten exactly what they call it) and said that if you're using an older account you have to create a new login with their new site and it would work across your federal government accounts. I did that but Medicare used my old login information and it worked. I don't know if that would be causing this problem, I don't think they've terminated the old system altogether just yet but I'm not sure. This probably doesn't make a difference but I thought I should mention it just in case.

Thank you for any suggestions you have about this, and please let me know if you think I should notify the medicare.gov people as well.
