I cannot stream china open tennis via tennis tv - login problems, crashing problems. Unresponsive to login details Sometimes I can log in but then cannot open specific matches Other times the screen just goes blank There is an account login icon in lower left hand corner of the screen, but if I try to refresh the screen the icon changes its nature and does not respond, then I cannot log in or out It is random and unreliable when I am trying to stream the tennis I have never had this problem with this website before, and I have been a subscriber for 5 years The first two photos are how the login icon should look. The third shows what is happening to the login icon The fourth photo is the blank screen that I sometimes get and cannot move away from - the screen is stuck I really dont want to have to use Safari and definitely not Chrome Sherrill Carta shcarta@gmailcom

No 'success page' for Mailerlite embedded sign-up form on Firefox, works with other browsers

Hello,

I'm setting up Mailerlite sign-up forms on my Wordpress website https://jilldobsonwriter.com. (I'm using the HTML option because I can't get the Mailerlite plugin to work for me. That's a whole other story.)

The URL on the landing page produces the sign-up 'success' message.

The embedded form on the blog page (https://jilldobsonwriter.com/blog-2/) does not.

I have attached a screenshot of the webpage that appears (https://assets.mailerlite.com/jsonp/521838/forms/95057252703012500/subscribe).

This doesn't happen on Microsoft Edge.

My guess is that Firefox and Mailerlite aren't playing nicely, hence a subscriber gets this 'under the bonnet' view rather than being progressed straight through to the success message.

And yes, everything is updated.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Speed test on a freshly booted machine is 100/100Mbps ... very often after viewing a youtube video in Firefox, this Speed test can slow down to below 20Mbps which results in a poor streaming experience ... I have a 150/150 fiber connection and the modem speed test doesn't change ... nothing to do with anything downstream ... not running anything else except FF ... always running with the latest up to date version(s) ... things of note: the process count goes up when this occurs ... even if FF is restarted it doesn't resolve this issue ... only a reboot resolves the issue ... when rebooting there is always some UNKNOWN process that needs to be manually terminated before the reboot process runs.

I suspect one of the multilayered (FF appears to open multiple sessions with streaming) processes may be getting widowed and left running and not releasing resources which causes less and less bw to be available ... this appears to occur mostly if I either Fast Forward or try to click forward or backward on a stream timeline suggesting to me that the current timeline may not be closing properly ... process manager doesn't reveal any processes linked to firefox but there are numerous svchost processes which I expect may be involved

Are there other ways/tools to narrow down this issue so the Mozilla team might be able to fix this ... I use FF exclusively but this has become more and more of an annoyance.

My i7 2TB 2.6GHz 8GB laptop is unable to move beyond W7 64b pro but I have had the same experience on a W10 64b Pro machine so very skeptical that this is an OS related issue.

Ultimately if FF kept track of the PIDs it opens it should be able to force them to close if they refuse to close on their own. Kill Process tree ... or ... perhaps provide a log that is user accessible identifying opened PIDs so that a user could manually kill widow processes without having to reboot.

Where are saved passwords stored in firefox 117 on Mac OS?

Recently FireFox has stopped saving changes to my saved logins/passwords. I am using a master password. When I exit FF (I have it set to resume with the same windows and tabs open) and then restart, all the saved passwords have reverted to some time in the past where they remain frozen. If I try to login to a website, FF will ask for my master password, then fill in the OLD password. I can update it (replace the auto-filled string with the correct one) -- for example, login to a site using the correct (NEW) password, and then choose "UPDATE" in the pop-up -- and those will persist until I exit. But after exiting and restarting, all the passwords have reverted to the old values. This also applies to adding and removing saved passwords, or editing them manually in the "about:logins" page. For example, I keep deleting the password for a no-longer-in-use account and it disappears until I restart Firefox, then it comes back.

This makes me think that something has changed the ownership or permissions on the file where these encrypted passwords are saved locally and so Firefox silently skips the step to write them out on exit (or update them incrementally as I change them). I do not use a FF/Mozilla account to save them in the cloud, I just keep them on the local machine, which is Mac OS X Big Sur (11.6.8).

I did find somewhere online (on mozilla.org, I *think*) that the file is "logins.json" at the top level of my active profile. But that file has not been modified since 01/15/2023 (over 8 months ago), and removing it does not seem to have had an impact on the problem, so I am guessing that wherever I found that info (that logins.json is where they are stored) was probably some out-of-date post from a past version of Firefox.

I am hoping someone can tell me which file is not being updated so I can inspect its ownership/permissions and then either fix it or delete the file. I am guessing that I can export the list to a csv file, exit Firefox, delete the storage file, then restart Firefox and import the saved csv file in order to fix it -- but I need to know which file it is.

Or, can someone tell me where to look for an error log that might contain an explanation of something going wrong while trying to update my profile on exit? NOTE: the rest of the profile seems to be OK, my windows and tabs are restored correctly on restart, they are NOT frozen in time.

Thank you for any help you can offer me.

Hello,

I'm trying to change some of my old passwords and I want to use the 'generate password' feature in Firefox. However, this is only available on sign up pages and NOT within the about:logins page within Firefox. Is there a way where I could generate passwords from within the about:logins page? Or at least anywhere in Firefox that doesn't involve finding a sign up page to generate a password?

Thanks in advance!

Hello...I appreciate your using Shortcuts & they are very important to me. I once had a problem of not having enough Shortcuts, but that problem has been solved.

My problem now is that the number of COLUMNS in my TopSitesRows often change, without my permission, from 6 Columns to 8. That leaves me with a lot of blank links as well as a lot of links I have visited only once & have no plans to visit again. Why can't I keep the number of COLUMNS the same like I can when I choose how many Rows when I choose TopSitesRows?

Thank you.

With a recent update of Firefox Developer Edition to version 117.0b9 i keep getting extremely annoying popups on all sites, asking me if I want to translate stuff.

I don't want to store unnecessary settings in my browser, related to exceptions to websites/languages that I want vs. does not want to translate.

I want to completely disable translations, globally. Forever. Two questions:

- Why there is no "disable translations globally" checkbox in the newly added popup? - Is there an about:config hack to do disable translations globally, for all languages, for all websites, and forever?

thanks in advance
