Firefox Support Forum

Recently switched from Comcast to Sonic. Have a bunch of identity issues. Old sites do not recognize me, and put me through a bunch of hoops to get on the web page.

ALSO.....Using Firefox, and Google homepage. The homepage will not open unless I first clear the history. Then it will open. It will open if I migrate from one website to another, but if I close it down and try to reopen the homepage......again....I have to delete history first.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I have a small issue. A while back I tweaked the settings and prefs of about:config, and in that, I forced Firefox to always automatically access every site with HTTPS instead of HTTP. I did this as an added security feature for a friend, but that was a while ago. Now, I have noticed that she can't acess her e-mail, or a lot of other sites.I already reset firefox, but all that did was reset the exceptions, now its asking for an exception everytime. But thats not the problem even IF I add the exception, the entire Yahoo site messes up. ALL graphics and everything are disabled. All you see is raw Text data and hyperlinks that are all broken. It works fine if I access another browser and it connects normally. But no matter what, it keeps trying to connect HTTPS. I don't really remember what settings I changed, and I would like to revert it back. Any help would be appreciated.

I recently discovered a new home page on my browser "My Search" is this from Mozilla? How do I get rid of it? it dosn't show up on installed programs . therefore I presume it is part of Fire Fox

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 running Vista SP2. and running Firefox 26.0 It seems that when we are on Facebook, every once in a while the the system will shut it's self down. It doesn't happen when you re on any other sites, just FB. We tried FB on IE & Chrome, and nothing goes wrong. We prefer FF over the others, but this has has us perplexed. Has anyone else seen this before?

Ever since upgrading to FF 26 I can't play video on YouTube or many other sites. It says "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. Download it from Adobe."

So I click on the link which takes me to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, do the install which goes without trouble.

But afterwards I get the same message when I try to play videos.

Running Windows 7 on a Desktop PC. Having NO problems playing videos in IE or Chrome. FF used to be great but it's becoming more trouble than it's worth.

Thanks in advance.

I run Ubuntu 10.10 LTSP server/client network and DO NOT want to upgrade Ubuntu... too much trouble, nobody can guarantee it will not hammer my LTSP install and besides, Unity is awful. I need newer Firefox due to some frequently used web pages, so I need an install procedure that will not hammer anything. It's a mission critical user environment. If anybody has positive experience with Firefox upgrade in similar environment please advise.

Firefox was running slow. I set up a sync account, uninstalled Firefox. Reinstalled it but cannot get the sync in order to recover bookmarks and passwords. is there a way to sign in to the sync account and resync the device? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Website I am trying to get to is memberonefcu.com THIS CONNECTION IS UNTRUSTED is msg I get.

i am running Firefox v26. I have tried installing the Lync client plugin from Micorsoft, and i do see the plugin .dll in the mozilla plugin folder afterwords, i make sure the config value is set to true for "loadplugin".. i try copying the plugin folder into the browser directory by hand as well (via all the explanations of how to fix this issue), but none of this works. i still get the "get me out of here" page when trying to open a live meeting which navigates my browser to the MS lync page.

unfortunately this may mean discontinuing my use of Mozilla if this issue cannot be resolved. Microsoft Office 360 and Microsoft Lync are seeing wide distribution now, and my company won't allow not migrating to it. but this now means i can no longer really use Firefox at work which is a very very sad day indeed.

crash usually happens when I try to upload a doc, after clicking on buttons like "upload resume" type. FF 26 freezes from time to time for about 5-7 sec and than look like everything comes back again.

crash and freeze might be related but they dont happens with the same frequancy. mostly freezes, crash is about twice a day.

addons I suspect are "flashblock" 1.5.17 and "Ads EWOQ Mobile Viewr 1.2" possibly "noscript"

while "Noscript" is not important, I cant do my work without "Flashblock" and "Ads EWOQ".

Ever since last week up to 2 weeks ago my Firefox Browser (26.0 Version) will just stop working and say (Not Responding) like ever 5-10 minutes, even reset the browser and even put it in Safe Mode still the same thing happened and it will freeze my computer to where I have to shut it down. Also I have run my Microsoft Security Essentials anti-virus, malwarebytes, and superantispyware software (not at the same time obviously) still nothing and run C Cleaner, and then if I am watching a movie, listening to music or playing a game in the browser or Spotify it will say plug-in not working and asks me to shut it down, same thing will long scripts and I don't understand this I am at my wits end what do I do? Because this is becoming ridiculous real quick! Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me answer this question!

My email can only be viewed in a split screen with another page sharing the screen. I don't know how to change the setting back so the email fills the entire monitor. No other site is shared with any other site.

I work online transcribing medical reports. Some of the time I have to run a quick search for information. Firefox has stopped blocking video popups. I read the articles about this, but I am losing valuable work time by stopping to write about it and don't have all day. WHY isn't there still an option to stop these? I'm going back to IE because this is frustrating and a ridiculous waste of time.

Imagiris Zoom, and a few other add ons, are enabled on my Firefox Browser. But when I right click to use, quite a few of them arent on right click menu. Have tried all help option , but add on menue still wont show up in right click options. Application Basics
