Hello community,

I have tried many fixes I found online to solve this issue but I have had no luck, this issue even persist into troubleshooting mode. Some sites have white text over a white background and other sites like best buy just have broken html/css, this issue just started happening yesterday for no reason as I have not changed anything of firefox since install, the only additions my browser has is bitwarden and nordvpn add-ons. I have attached pictures as examples. Also if it's any help my system is running Manjaro Qonos 21.2.0

Thank you.

I have been using Software Pursuits (Visual Pursuits) for many years which is software used by many camera clubs to assist in judging images and enables clubs to communicate with one another. Lately, Visual Pursuits does not recognize me as a member.....especially when communicating via email. As secretary I send out reports to many members but I am excluded in receiving those emails as the sender or cc. Are there any settings which is preventing that. I have no other problems using VP....it is only when I communicate via email. Would welcome any questions or suggestions. Thank you.

I just downloaded Alfred and now when I try a search from the address bar or the search box on the right, it is defaulting to bing! I have restarted in trouble shooting mode and it is still there. I don't see bing in the drop down of searches in default search engines, in fact the only thing that now shows up there is has the firefox icon and "a browser." I ran malware and it quarantined 17 items. Still have bing. Please help me get rid of this intruder! Thank you

just tried to access you tube using firefox and none of the video or photo come up. Works i Chrome. Does not work even after disabeling all addons and troubleshoot help

Hi all, Firefox has been using quite a bit of RAM lately.

Ok, I had like a dozen tabs open, but I think this might be a little too many Firefox instances (see screenshot; minimize memory usage just run).

I have already tried disablig tab autostart and decreasing the value of processes in about:config but nothing ever changes.

I hope someone will be able to help me out. Thanks :)

Hi,

suddenly the error keys and the TAB key on my keyboard are not working just in Firefox. They work in all other apps, just not in Firefox. Appart from that, the arrow keys on the number block and the special characters like umlauts, @, €, etc. are working propperly.

What can I do?

Hi, The program SEEMS to start but Firefox does not load one singel page. I get no errormessage but firefox does not even try to open pages.

Also, if I try to go into "settings" nothing happens (no errormessage, but settings does not open).

I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Does not help.

If I try some other bowser everything works fine. The problem started after I did a total uninstallation of Office365 (does not need to be depending on it but it could be a connection).

Have searched the web without finding a solution and now I ask for help here, I really do want to keep using Firefox but currently it is impossible.

Can not download anything. (Download failed) I have tried every single solution mentioned, resetting, changing download folder, reinstall, and even config options step by step. Since reinstalled the firefox, now can not even install any extensions.

The documentation says to use F11. F11 was removed from ChromeOS. The Full Screen Button on the keyboard will take Firefox out of full screen, but when you try to use it to put Firefox in Full Screen, the window gets slightly larger, and then goes back to its original size.

Other applications seem to be able to go to full screen using the Full Screen key that are running under Linux. For instance, gvim, thunar, meld, and gnucash all will go into full screen with the Full Screen Key.

I know I am not the first person to complain about this. The spacing/padding between menu items, in particular the Bookmark menu is just ridiculously large. It got even bigger in 92.0!

I rely on Bookmarks heavily and use hundreds. I guess this was done for touch screens? The main interface is still currently the mouse for computers.

I see the only current fix is a using a stylesheet and it seems a bit involved. I have to give it a try. I am pleading with the designers, please give us the option to use compact padding once again. I am not sure why this is being forced on us. I really like Firefox, please don't make me look for another option. Thanks!

When Firefox asks if I want to download an update and I agree, soon after that but not right away it stops working - on every new page it says "We need to restart to finish updating" <- This last bit is VERY annoying. Is there a way to keep FF working in such situation? I usually have 3 FF profiles running, about 10-20 tabs each and when it suddenly does this - I can restart them all but when it is suitable for me.

The only solution I can see so far is disabling updates via group policies (which is not well documented, where do i put this policies.json on Fedora? need to google that).

Any other ways to keep updates and FF running until I decide when to restart? Thanks.

I don't want to save my Firefox profile on removable media and leave it accessible to anyone around the house. I don't want to use my iCloud to store it either, because files in iCloud drive aren't end-to-end encrypted; they're encrypted, but Apple holds the keys. I can store attachments in Bitwarden, and my plan comes with enough room to store regular backups of my Firefox profile. If I want to attach the entire profile folder (not all the individual files separately) in one shot, I have to make a zip folder first, and then I can attach it to the Firefox log-in entry in my Bitwarden password manager. Will the backup work correctly if I store it like this? I mean, if I restore a backup after extracting it from a zipped file/folder, will it work correctly, uncorrupted, etc?

Thanks in advance,

I must log in to the WiFi network I use. When I start FireFox the first time, it brings up my login page, I click [Accept], and I'm online. After a while on, I get kicked off, and must log in again. (The non-internet, WiFi connection remains active; but I'm neither logged in nor online.) How do I re-initialize the automatic login function ("detectportal"?)?

Closing, and re-starting FireFox again doesn't work; it initially tries to go to my homepage instead... *but it can't*, because I'm not online. I can't go to the login page's displayed URL, for the same reason. I have to actually restart the computer, loosing whatever I'm doing, then start FireFox. Then, and only then, can I get it to go to the network login page so I can login and continue.

Is there a button, "about:thingie", or setting I can use to reinitialize the automatic login page search & display mechanism? Rebooting the whole computer is a xxxx.

Ive seen numerous articles discussed on OCSP issues but they all seem to be coming from Website developers.

I am but a simple user trying to download the Microsoft suite of apps however am greeted with this lovely message that I cant seem to find any relatable solutions anywhere?

Could it be related to my Wifi Setup? Had to connect directly to a range extender as this sad sack of a PC doesnt have a built in Wifi Module.

Is there a hidden treasure im yet to find in the developer options? Any advice will do.

I use Firefox 95.0 on Windows 10 professional. Problem: save any webpage as test.htm "Web page, complete" and you get a file named test.htm and a folder named test_files. Good, this is what I want. When I delete the folder it deletes the file above the folder without my permission and vice versa. This is clearly wrong. I don't know if this is a bug in Windows or Firefox, but this is not how files and folders should behave.

Microsoft stream doesn't work (specifically watching a video) , i tried reloading a bunch of times but it still wouldn't work. I went on my phone to the firefox browser and tried to watch that stream on there, but that didn't work either. Please help and thank you. Uploaded photo is what it looked like on my phone

Hello My Firefox browser stopped working suddenly. I used it this morning (11/12/21) without issue but when I tried it around 6PM CST US I got PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR on everything I tried to load. There was no updates that I am aware of and I tried all of the solutions provided on sites I visited up to and including disabling anti-virus with no success. For now I've uninstalled the product until a solution has been found. Thank you to anyone who may be able to assist in this problem. All other browsers I've tried work as expected.

(System Windows 11, Anti-virus Kaspersky Total security)

Since the last update my email account with comcast.net was totally messed up. I finally did a system restore to an earlier date, but there is still at least one email I am unable to get. It is amazingfacts.org.

Help please ...
