I subscribe to a publication called Nikkei Asia. Their site is asia.nikkei.com.

I get regular e-mails from them with headlines. If I click on these to 'READ MORE' I cannot because the login box doesn't appear.

To access the content of the publication I have to log in, using the login box that appears on the first page of the site. BUT using Firefox, which is my regular, default browser NO login box appears.

If I use another browser (e.g. Safari) the login box appears automatically.

So what's the problem. This is an important news site for me so if I can't solve this, I will probably switch my default browser to Safari.

Any idea what's wrong?

Why do I keep getting pop-ups wanting me to load Rocket Speed Booster? I try to cancel the pop-ups but they keep repopulating the screen. I had to close Firefox to get rid of them - but then they came back after re-opening Firefox. Thanks for your help. Lynn

So glad I finally found this page. I dont know what they are called, but on the Firefox are a row of symbols that when clicked take me to that site. I cant remove One Night Friends. Regardless of how many times I try, with either of two removal options, it comes back, preventing me from replacing it. What can I do?

I have a 2015 Dell alien using Microsoft 8 and have been very happy with it. Recently my PC had a problem and went into a "self repair mode". This has happened before with excellent results. This time some things are missing. Most noticeably all my Firefox stored passwords. I really depend on that wonderful service you created as I am in my 70s and cannot keep all those passwords straight.

My question, after all that, is can my passwords be retrieved? Does Firefox use a cloud to retrieve passwords in case of something like this? Please save me hours of work and worry.

Firefox has been my go-to since I herd about it several years ago on NPR radio

thank you MaryJane Smith ...

So for the longest of time I've been using Firefox and it wasn't until today that I realized that your English dictionary wants to correct my name.

Alita.

That's my name, but according to your dictionary the only valid options are as follows, Akita Alia Alta Altai Alisa

So according to you, a name with 2 or less people using it in my country is more valid than my own that thousands of people have? Could you update the library to add my name?

How to disable the annoying download prompt window

Hi. I just switched from Brave to Firefox and I am quite annoyed with the "What should Firefox do with this file?" dialog that appears every time you want to download something.

Today I was trying to download a bunch of assets, 223 to be exact. As you can probably guess it is a nightmare having to confirm the dialog for every single download.

It seems that Firefox is the only web browser these days that forces the user to confirm this every time.

If I click on a download I want to download the download. Why am I being asked about this?

At least there should be some way to change this setting.

If not, I am going straight back to Brave as this is a nightmare for multiple downloads...

I need to disable some tools (especially the dubugger).

Setting 'devtools.debugger.enabled' seem to have no effect (F12 still opens the dubugger).

I have a device that generates various codes that I need to connect and recognise in javascript, without the display being affected.

I used to use an add-on but that disappeared with Firefos 65 (I am currently on 95). I have been using IE to overcome this problem but would sooner use Firefox.
