All of a sudden, after six years of doing so, I can no longer logon to my USAA account via Firefox. The USAA logon page opens with no problem, but after entering my credentials I get the following pop-up:

"We are unable to complete your request.

Our system is currently unavailable.

Please try again later."

All other browsers work with no problem.

It seems like something has changed recently, I don't remember having such problem before. As you can see on one of my pictures I have browser settings changed to always ask what to do with every file extension, yet encountering link to pdf file it loaded automaticly in special frame instead of showing just link to it. I included pictures of this frame, settings and another screenshot of the same website in Opera browser with similar settings where nothing loads itself.

Link to the problematic comment with auto-loading pdf: https://kodluch.wordpress.com/2021/09/30/30-09-2021-syria-2187-dzien-sprzatania-swiata/#comment-115906

Is there any way to block such pdf-frames in current version of Firefox?

First, the problem does not occur using Chrome or Safari. On one site I visit regularly I am no longer able to use the PM and comment functions. I have checked with the site's webmaster and am confident the problem is not at their end. Suggestions short of deserting Firefox?

I have a home website that was written using php well over 10 years ago. Except for family updates, it has changed little and displayed correctly using firefox and other browsers. Firefox is my preferred browser. A couple of months ago, it stopped displaying correctly in firefox but continues to display correctly w/o issues in Edge, and other browsers.

I note it displays in a basic form in firefox, links to other pages and content are shown and operable, but not displayed (correctly) as it does in Edge and others. I am on the latest version of Win Pro 10.

I posted the problem the end of August and received a number of suggestions. I went through the steps suggested (using troubleshoot amongst other suggestions) and none of the suggestions resolved the issue. My suspicion is that something in a relatively recent update of firefox has issues with my php based code. I do not use a "web tool" but write the source myself. I started writing websites with html decades ago and got the bug to use php years back.

If anyone has the interest (or curiosity) to look at the website in firefox and edge and my source code and see if they see the issue I would be glad provide the link to my website.

When I try to open Facebook , I get the following message Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at www.facebook.com.

If that address is correct, here are three other things you can try:

   Try again later.
   Check your network connection.
   If you are connected but behind a firewall, check that Firefox has permission to access the Web.

Hello, I'm running Firefox 78 on fresh Debian Stable installation and I cannot access certain websites. I followed step-by-step the instructions by Mozilla Support found here, with no result. Of course, I tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, renaming .mozilla folder to create a new settings folder, deleting .cache/mozilla etc. I use no proxy, and I can visit all those certain websites form other browsers of this installation. And I'm looking for a solution for more than 2 weeks now. Any help is welcome!

Any window associated with Paypal loads but the page is tiny. I have to zoom in order to read the page, login, etc. There is no problem with actually logging in.

I opened FFOX in safe mode with the same result. Also cleared the startup cache.

Running 2016 MBP with Big Sur 11.5.1. Neither Safari nor Chrome have this issue.

Any help is appreciated!

Hello, My problem is that every time I go to log in to my PayPal account or work with some settings I get multiple question marks instead of words/letters. (see Screen Shot: https://jmp.sh/EYpj4pJ ) It only happens with the Firefox browser.

I have done what Firefox support recommends for troubleshooting, such as: Turn off extensions, reset preferences, restart, Start Firefox in Safe Mode, delete PayPal cookies, and clear cache. I also tried to disable hardware acceleration but, this doesn't apply to this version because it's not there (see Screen Shot: https://jmp.sh/wEZqkcP) but, the problem continues.

I already talk to PayPal Support because It only happens when using PayPal. They say that this is a Firefox problem since it works fine in other browsers.

I ask: Is there a problem between PayPal and Firefox that I should know about?

Visited links are turning color to purple in my firefox, which is default color, I did not change those color settings, and usually this behavior works but sometime on some links in google search result

  1. Clicked link turning color
  2. Checking the page and clicking back button
  3. visited link color is still blue, should have been purple

I tried to open same search result in another tab but still no purple color for visited link. probably google adding some parameter to visited link which is making firefox algorithm to not to understand is this link visited or not.

you can see behaviour at https://youtu.be/2xAc4yf3uJY or https://imgur.com/1kydG7m or https://imgur.com/7g8aivL

Today, October 9th, Firefox update on my laptop and everything functions well except when I try to use the search pages for either Google or Bing. The pages https://www.google.com/ and https://www.bing.com both load without issue but when I attempt to search for ANYTHING there is just the dot moving left to right in the tab title with no results coming back on either.

All other sites appear to be running and loading fine and the issue seems to be with just the search pages that I mentioned. Both sites work fine with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.

The "right click" search google function also has the same results. A blank tab opens with just the left to right dot on the tab title.

How can this be fixed? I don't want to have to go to using a different browser and of course having the ability to search is essential.

Please advise.
