I met a problem in my android smartphone when I needed to go to the mail (gmail.com). The problem was switching another account. The same problem obviously through a computer browser (design mode). I understand that the error is Google, but still I believe that the browser must work even with such errors. I also encountered the problem of translating pages. Let's say from English to Russian. I have a google plugin. I think that it would be better if Mozilla had its own plugin and it was better than Google's. I see the pluses in you and I hope that the performance of your browsers will be better than Google and Apple, but when I see such errors, they unfortunately do not give such advantages. And I believe that it is necessary to work on the design of the browser for a greater desire to use and open it. I will be glad if listen to me. Thank you for your product.

I use nordvpn. When I open firefox, it usually asks for the proxy password being that I have linked to a proxy server. However, it is not giving me a prompt so that I can type in my username and password anymore. Therefore, I am unable to use firefox. This is happening on my windows 10 and mac machine.
2 questions: How do I get the prompt so that I can type in my nordvpn u/n and p/w? Is there a way to store my nordvpn u/n and p/w into firefox so that I can remain linked to my proxy and do not have to type in everytime I open firefox.

Hi Community,
Quite often (more and more these days) I'm receiving MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_INVALID_INTEGER_ENCODING message. Full text message is "An error occurred during a connection to XYZ. The server presented a certificate that contains an invalid encoding of an integer. Common causes include negative serial numbers, negative RSA moduli, and encodings that are longer than necessary."
I've tried searching for this error, but I was unable to figure out what exactly does it means (except that Firefox finds this certificate invalid for some reason), and how to fix/disable this (except for replacing a certificate).
I know this certificate is a self-signed one, but I don't care as it is used in my lab. More important, Chrome or IE or Edge do not report this issue and are allowing me to choose to trust it.
Thanks

Updated to latest FF. Now session restore no longer works. I have checked, the sessionstore-backups folder for changes. When launching FF the folder is created and recovery.jasonlz4 is created. As tabs are added a recovery.baklz4 is created. When FF is closed, the sessionstore-backups folder disappears and is gone. When FF starts again, the above repeats. So as such when it starts it sees no session restore so it just continues to the default homepage.
How do I get session restore to work properly again?

I was thinking whether editing and altering already cached earlier input strings could be possible. I know that the entire cache could just be deleted using "Clear Recent History". But that is not a well-planned option. Some input strings could have as well been simple typos or ill-formed strings. They could in fact be distractions or eyesores. So why not be allowed an option to edit the cached strings? I always do this for my .bash-history file to keep it compact and useful. So I figure there could be a file in firefox to do just that. Well, for a personal computer dedicated to a single user, this could be a good option.

Hello ! I'm using Firefox Developer (70.0b13, but happens on normal version too), and the Twitch streams lags when using resolution above 360p. When using the automatic quality, the stream starts at maximum quality. Then keeps dropping until 360p. Then the lag stops, but won't change back to max bandwidth possible quality. If I manually set the quality to 720 or 1080, the lag continues. Of course, I checked the internet and on another browsers (Brave and Edge Chromium). I can watch at 1080p without problems. I only have uBlock as extension installed. And this is happening for some time (more one week).
Any help is appreciated.

Hi, I would like to point out that the drag n drop feature of Firefox is not really good.
I have used many linux distribution and faced this problem from the day I started using Linux. I thought Firefox team would notice this, and work on this, so I didn't report any bug. But the problem stayed the same.
The Problem: When you try to drag a file from any file manager (I used Nautilus, Nemo, Thunar, Pcmanfm, and Dolphin file managers) on Linux, it will not instantly pop the "Drag files here" on supported websites. For example, when you try to upload files to mega, you have to drag and drop multiple times before getting it working. That doesn't happen with Chromium.
Even worse, if you try to drag and drop hundreds of files, Firefox will crash. I have also tried Firefox Nightly and Firefox Beta. Same. No improvement on them. Here I would like to attach a screenshot of the crash.

i'm interested in settings surrounding protecting ip/internal/address leakage. i don't have a vpn or proxy but i don't want my geo location to be broadcast and identified by ip-address. probably nothing i can do in the browser as ISP assigns the ip address, but all info is good.
Mac: Firefox will work when a new download, will not work when opened from Applications folder

I deleted the FF download I had been using because I was having an issue where my bookmarks bar wouldn't show up, the max/min/close buttons on the window wouldn't appear, and nothing I typed would appear in the address bar. This was a clean download where I deleted FF from the applications folder.
The new download works fine if I double click the application directly in the download window (where it prompts you to drag it into the applications folder) and then sync my account to get the bookmarks and extensions back. Once I do drag the application into the applications folder and then try to open it from there, I am stuck with the same issues described above with an unresponsive address bar and no min/max/close buttons.
I've attached a screencap of the problem window and the "download window" in case either of those things were not clear.

Recently I've been having trouble with the dropdown menus in Firefox, such as the History and Bookmarks menu in the tool bar and the right-click menu. Intermittently when I open the menus they close within a second or two without me doing anything. This only happens in the Firefox window, all of my other apps and browsers are fine.
I'm running on a Macbook Pro with OSX 10.15.1 and Firefox 70.0.1. I've restarted Firefox and it fixes the problem for a short time then the problem returns. I've cleared my History, including Caches and Cookies, reinstalled Firefox, restarted my computer and tried disabling my add-ons. The issue keeps coming back.

I am having trouble running Firefox 68.2.0 on a fresh install of CentOS 7.7.1908. This happens whether or not a .mozilla/ directory exists. The problem happens when I invoke Firefox from the command line with or without the "-safe-mode" switch. No Firefox window come up.
Here's what the process listing looks like:

I must use the -KILL switch to kill the program.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem>?
Thanks, cgr

I'm considering writing an Add-On that does a DNSSEC/DANE lookup.
My scenario is that a DNSSEC query for the TLSA (DANE) records of a site return a full Root Certificate for a site. (2,0,0 in DANE jargon.)
I want to create new TLS context with a CA-pool containing just that Certificate, so that when I browse to the site, the TLS-layer verifies the site certificate against the DNSSEC-specified Root CA.
My question: how do I program that in an add on? How can I specify a *certain* CA root certificate before opening the connection.

So I have Firefox on a main O/S Windows 8.1 & a second boot Ubuntu 12.04. I've set up my sync account on Windows 8.1 & when I set it up on Ubuntu with the recovery key it will import the bookmarks, add ons, preferences ect. The problem is if I add bookmarks in Windows Firefox & then boot Ubuntu Firefox it won't change it on Ubuntu, if I add a new bookmark on Ubuntu Firefox it won't change it on Windows. They both keep their own instance of my sync but won't share it & share the changes.
Am I supposed to select a setting at the Sync Options to tell it to keep both the browsers the same & to also let each other add bookmarks? If you know what I mean ;)
