New today, I can receive e-mail into my Earthlink account but when I go to send any messages I get a FireFox message of "Enter a URL" I have no problem or issues when using Chrome. Yesterday I was unable to roll over in Experian to a secure site, again no issue with Chrome. I am on a desk top using Windows 10 and the most current version of FireFox. Suggestions would be appreciated, would had to abandon FireFox as I am a long time user.

I had a big update of my laptop last night and when I turned it on again today all the tabs I had open in Forefox now just say 'New tab'.
I've read a lot about a sessionrestore backup folder but I don't know how to find this, I can't see one in the Mozilla folder on my C drive.
I'm not terribly computer savvy but if there's a comparatively easy to follow solution that would be great, thanks.

For several years now, any PDF document that I get as an attachment to an email (via Gmail) does not print correctly.
I open the Gmail attached PDF within Firefox. I click on the "Print" icon, and the PDF is opened in a separate tab, and the Print dialogue box opens. I click on Print...and the PDF prints correctly...but then the Print dialogue box opens a second time.
This has been a problem for several versions of Firefox, and has happened regardless of the Windows OS that I've used (Windows 8...8.1...and now 10). This did not always happen, but I can't remember the version of Firefox which first displayed this issue.
These Gmail PDF's print correctly on other browers (Opera, Chrome, Vivaldi), but I'd rather use Firefox. Can anyone help? Tried the suggestions within Mozilla support, to no avail. Is this a known issue?
Help....

Since these Firefox security updates on 21 Sep 16 I can access webcam on adultwork.com. I have sound but no picture, no text box or any controls at all. How to fix this - OR uninstall these updates - OR I will stop using firefox as a web browser. I accept that security is important - that is why I pay for security software. I did not ask for these updates and they are no good to me if they prevent me from keeping in touch with new-found friends - yes, that's correct - FRIENDS...
I will not supply further information or run tests. Everything was fine until these security updates (my PC is secure).
Firefox did this. I expect Firefox to fix it.

Latest Firefox is allocating most of the memory to the plugin container, not firefox.exe. All plugins are disabled. Is this right?
Seems to be using the same amount of total memory and CPU, so I don't know if they changed how they do memory allocation or if I've got a problem.

I'm adding this to what I'm assuming is a growing list of users with memory issues. I'm using FF 49.0 on Win10 with 16GB of memory. Firefox will run fine for a while but eventually gets to the threshold of using about 2.9 GB of RAM and then starts to freeze, eventually requiring an "end task" operating in taskmanager. I'm wondering if this has to do with Facebook as I'm usually running that in one tab while keeping 5 or 6 tabs open. I'm not in any way a power using with 75 tabs open at a time. This is a constant problem, the one question on the support page that referred me here was from 2014 and FF 31.0, so obviously the problem hasn't been fixed.

This started with FF47 and continues into FF49. I'm unable to watch streaming video on certain YT channels, HULU or any other site that wants to find HTML5 or Flash operational in FF. I'm including a screen shot of the message I get on HULU. The one on YT will not allow a screen shot. It says "your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available" with a link to FAQ about HTML5 video. When visiting the link, YT identifies FF as having all available formats. Another site that has become involved with this degrade of FF is Top News Headlines Live Stream. I've been watching all of these in a 64bit version of FF for as long as I can remember. This has just now started. The live stream news just sits there waiting for the "Connecting to stream arbitration server…" to happen. On Daily Motion, I'm no longer able to watch any live stream.
I have exhausted my trouble shooting abilities. This is not a Windows problem that I can see. Therefore, I need to drop this in FF lap for repair.
These problems do not happen in any other browser.
I really don't want to sound snarky, but it seems that every time a new release of FF comes along, what was working great starts to fail.
Please guide me to what ever I need to do rather than ask me to chase more trouble shooting adventures. I have exhausted them before contacting you. An no, it is not an extension problem that I can find.

I am in GMail, type my email out and go to add a JPG about 1 MG in size to my Email andthe loading bar comes up at the bottom of the email, in it , it says in RED: " Attachment Failed - Retry Help " . I've retried and click help and nothing helps so far. Anyone have help for me I would really-really appreciate it. And by the way, I have taken the same attachment to Safari on the same computer in GMail and the attachment loads and I can send it. Thanks for helping if you can, Myron

It seems to be just the Comcast / XFINITY web pages when checking email using Firefox. Performance is poor, the email page does not keep up with my typing which is not very fast. Putting Firefox in <safe> mode takes care of the performance and the constant, what I believe is the slowing down your browser flickering message that occurs. When going through the stopping of hardware acceleration, Theme, extensions......etc, I could not narrow it down to which area is causing the problem. I have done the <tune up Firefox> and it didn't help. I don't have these same issues when using IE. Obviously my preference is to use Firefox. Note: There is a HP printer extension that Firefox does not recognize and has automatically disabled. Are there any recommended plugins / add ons for Comcast.net (XFINITY) site? I spoke with Comcast support and they said it was a FireFox issue, because it works with IE. I did see a similar question with Charter web email issues. Any suggestions to help narrow the issue down would be appreciated.

After updating to Firefox 49, every time I add a new bookmark to the bookmarks toolbar, the hidden toolbar reappears. I usually have it hidden as I am using a small monitor with 1366x768 resolution to maximize the reading area of webpages without going full screen. This is more of an annoyance than anything as I would like to be able to uncheck the bookmarks toolbar & it stay hidden until I choose to show it. Does anyone have any ideas as to where I need to go to change this?
