Hi, I have tried to create a google account two times. Each time Firefox didn't save the google account name.

Firefox did save the password though. Just the username is empty. So, the third time I will write down the username.

I know how to create a Google account. Pretty sure it will work. My question is, why is this happening? Am I paranoid thinking Google doesn't like to support Firefox?

Best regards

HTML5 download attribute is not working at all on Firefox.

I created a simple HTML Mark up like this:

Logo <a href="Will Logo.png" download>Download Image</a>

When I click the link, it doesn't download the Image, it opens it in a new window.

I have tried it on Edge and Chrome and the result is the same-- the Image doesn't download. It simply opens up in a new window.

Is there some settings that I need to enable, for this HTML5 download attribute to work?

Regards.

Whenever I click a link to track a UPS package or even manually enter the info on their website, I get an error message stating "We are unable to complete your tracking request at this time. Please try again later." That only happens with Firefox and no other browsers. I've tried to disable pop-up blockers with the same result. Any ideas of other things I could try? Thanks.

Hello,

Before today, the add-on button shaped like a puzzle piece in the Toolbar would open a list of extensions I have installed, allowing me to access settings for those extensions. Now, when I click on it, it just takes me to about:addons. Is there a way for me to revert this so that it brings up the list as usual?

Thank you.

Using MX-21.3_ahs_x64 Wildflower. Since upgrading Firefox to version 116.0.3 all links within www.onlinetvrecorder.com do not work anymore. No messages, no hints what happened, just not working. Vivaldi has the same problem, Chrome works. I have asked in mozillazine, but did not get an answer.

I did something to my settings before, and I am not sure what, but now I have a very very very limited space for how much stuff I can put on my firefox toolbar at the top as far as add ons, and extensions. When I try to download an app, it is difficult to access the add on because it can only be accessed sometimes, by the little puzzle piece icon next to the add ons on the toolbar, some of the apps are automatically in use no matter if they are on the toolbar, puzzle piece icon or not, but some seem to not be accessible at all other than opening up the settings for all of your extensions, which makes things so hard and slow. I will post a picture of what I mean.

I used to be able to send tabs between my devices, say when I go from my home computer to my laptop. This option seems to have gone missing, like I don't even see the option when I right click on a tab. What happened to this option? Did I somehow disable it? Can it be restored?

For the last few days I have had a problem that Bing becomes my default search engine. Even when I go to Google.com it will still reroute to Bing. I searched the forums for solutions and none worked. I couldn't even get into Add-ons and Themes. I would just get a blank page.


Resolution: Finally I decided the best way to deal with this is to delete and re-install Firefox. I saved my Bookmarks first. Then I went to install/uninstall and went to uninstall Firefox, but it gave me another option when I hit it to Refresh Firefox. I chose that option and it reset Firefox to all default/original settings. I didn't even have to import Bookmarks as it kept them and 2 of the Add-ons that I use were optioned to reinstall. The only thing I ended up doing was adding the Menu Bar back on and adding a home page button under Customize Toolbar.

Hope this helps others.

Since the arrival of Firefox, I have had it set to open automatically when my computer starts. Recently it has started opening in TWO windows on startup. If I remove Firefox from the 'open on startup' list, obviously it does not start at all. I cannot find any control to make it stop opening two windows. Is it a Mozilla problem, or an Apple problem?

Whenever viewing 'any' DRM content protected with widevine plugin, the plugin simply crashes. I've gone over some Ubuntu related solutions that don't apply to windows, not sure how to fix this.

I have latest everything and no incompatibilities with any software/thing until now with this: Firefox 116.0.3 (64-bit) (20230815173142) Windows 10 x64 latest Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc. File: 4.10.2557.0

I've deleted all the Widevine folders and had Firefox re-install the folders/files for me automatically, same issue occurs.

There's no other information, I just clicked send crash report. It started happening some time late in 2022.
