Firefox Support Forum

Whenever I start Firefox up with a shortcut on macOS instead of clicking on the dock icon, it asks me to start firefox in troubleshoot mode. I use automator for setting "launch applications" shortcuts for my favourite apps. Doing the same with safari or chrome doesn't give me an issue so I'm wondering why firefox wants to start in troubleshoot mode everytime it isn't open the regular way?

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hi, I just downloaded Firefox to my Mac. Everything is updated. The browser works like this:

I type in a URL.

First, a full-screen pop-up window that asks me to install an Add-on. (I read the Info - looks like an advertisement? - What is this? - Is this Normal? -Is this going to happen all the time?

Next, a series of "redirect" URLs flash across the search line...

Next, I end up at some completely random site.

So, my basic question as a new-to-Firefox user is, as politely as possible, WTF???

My first experience of Firefox...Do I feel safe? NO. I looked at the Help/FAQ section and, apparently Firefox Support hasn't encountered this issue?

I've been forced to jump into forum discussions to make it work. SUCKS. So, is it malware that was downloaded with Firefox? I don't know. Should I toggle something in about:config to "true" or to "false"? I don't know.

If this "redirect" feature is just part of Firefox, PLEASE just tell me. I'll use a different browser.

Unique problem with dowloading files. when i first boot up the computer, and go to one of several sites that I work with to download a file of some kind even Zoom links, the save file or open file box is grayed out and i cannot open or download the files. However, as soon as I restart the computer, it clears that up and I then do everything. why?

Do you know that Firefox is more and more become difficult to use as many professional websites can't be use with Firefox? Such as BMO online banking, Manulife, etc? It is time to

I used to have an APP that looked like a backward c to sign out. It gives you 3 different time lengths to use. Then it warns that all data will be lost. You press the key at the bottom and signs you out and then immediately right back in. This just disappeared.

Also where are all the apps that were grouped together I think they were under command? I could just click on one (like the printer) and drag it to my task bar. I can't find it either.

Firefox just updated to 94.0.1 (64-bit). When I restarted the browser, I found it had deleted my home pages. Fortunately, I have them in Edge and was able to set them up again. Also, Firefox reset my options, for example, when I open a PDF link, I have it open my PDF reader. Now, Firefox wants to download it.

Can you guys stop screwing with the settings every time you update the browser? It's no wonder why Firefox is losing users.

Popups are driving me crazy, despite popup blocking being turned on. I tried with Apple support, but they got so far and quit, saying Firefox isn't their app and therefore, my problem isn't their problem. I haven't a clue what to do. The last thing Apple said was to eliminate Firefox or clear all history and that may eliminate the problem; of course it would eliminate all my passwords, too, a non-starter, a take on we had to destroy the village in order to save it. It comes from one source: via2.verifyrobot.info The enticements range from malware on your computer, to sex for sale, to turn on your anti-virus, to money-making schemes. I'll attach a screen shot with a variety of these (note: I tried, but the screen shot is too large).

Is there no way to get rid of this infestation? I'm not a computer scientist, and the articles that are offered to solve such problems might as well be written in Sanskrit. Help, please.

Firefox Windows Browser 94.0.1 will not work properly with Ebay Selling Tools. Particular problem is that when I try to do anything with a Listing Template to sell an item on Ebay, when I save the item, the page just spins. (attached). Microsoft Edge works fine. Lot's of suggestions to disable enhanced tracking protection, but that does not make any difference.

Good morning I have a problem after reinstalling windows 10 with passwords and bookmarks in the firefox browser. even though I had syncronized settings, I don't want to load the passwords and bookmarks I had before. thank you in advance for your help

First it starts lagging for no apparent reason and slows the whole machine down - I'm not able to switch to terminal to kill Firefox. Even the mouse pointer starts lagging up to a point that I'm not able to click close button. After a while, it either crashes, or I need to reboot the machine in order to make it work again.
