Although I allowed google ads (shown in "Not Blocking Tracking Content" list), they are still blocked. Is there a way to fix this? This problem appears on two sites (https://www.agame.com/game/tropical-merge, https://www.games.gr/paixnidia/the-mergest-kingdom) only. Other sites work as they supposed to. ABP is disabled. If I turn Enhanced Protection off, I can see google ads, but I lose any progress I have in these games. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

I'm having a trouble connecting to WSS websocket. I'm using self-signed certificate.

Firefox shows in the console: Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at wss://127.0.0.1/...

I have tried with private browsing and with troubleshoot mode.

Works out of the box in Chrome and Brave.

Firefox: 105.0.3. OS: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS

Rendering is completely broken after the upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. See attached image. This particular render is of the advanced preferences page, or actually the prompt warning that it could break something is somewhere in there. The mountains are my desktop, it's all alpha channel in Firefox. Nothing else seems broken, and other apps and games, both using GPU acceleration and not, are working fine.

I have removed and reinstalled firefox (snap remove firefox then snap install firefox) but did not delete all of the history files in between. (I am posting this from a different browser, since Firefox is unusable.)

Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, Firefox 105.0.3 (64-bit)

Windows 10 Lenovo Yoga laptop, no GPS chip from its spec sheet. Firefox browser running bing and google maps thinks I am "near" a place I was two weeks ago. I was never actually there, I was 20 miles away from where it thinks I was a couple weeks ago and now I am 320 miles from there. Firefox is up to date 105.06 from the about field says current.

Chrome websites know exactly where I am, and has been correct all the time. Bing Maps, Google Maps and MapQuest Map know exactly where I am on Chrome!

Why do they think I am hundreds of miles away when those same map websites are run on Firefox?


We travel in an RV so every 4 or 5 days, we move 50-100 miles. Microsoft Map thinks I am in the same spot as Firefox, and I have changed its default location each time we move. But it thinks we are still someplace else, same as Firefox.

I have done all the usual checks, troubleshooting mode, reboots, location settings, checked to verify NO Proxy is set. No VPN is running.

I really want to keep using Firefox, but this is begining to make me wonder why as its been going on for a couple months now. We have been traveling in an RV for 6 years during the summers, and never noticed this before.

I did buy an external GPS dongle for Windows but none of the maps programs see it, except the app made to test the dongle. BU-353W10, a windows 10 gps dongle. I tried a couple others, similar results, they cannot see it.

I have always been accessing my online banking or other sites using firefox, but about two weeks ago that has been made difficult, if not impossible. For some reason, I can not access my Bank of America account, but I can access my Navy federal account. Today I found out that there are a few other sites that I log into that I cannot access now. I have also tried to use a different browser, Microsoft edge and Chrome, but I still can no longer access these accounts, this was never a problem before. Can you help?

I set my default search engine to DuckDuckGo. Still, when I open a new tab and click on the address bar (without typing anything), "Search with google" is the first suggestion, followed by recent history.

I don't want Google there, it is not my default search engine, and I even removed it from my "Search shortcuts". I would expect either "Search with DuckDuckGo", since I explicitly set that as my search engine, or better yet, no search engine at all (since the address bar itself already functions as my access to search).

I recently deleted some email from my Yahoo.mail account and asked for it to be restored by Yahoo yesterday. Today the time stamp on all of my incoming mail is wrong. I contacted Yahoo and they said that I needed to enable my location to Yahoo from within Firefox. Yahoo is not listed as requesting permission so I am not able to enable the location for them. I switched to Chrome and the time stamp in Yahoo was correct. I exited Firefox and tried reloading yahoo.mail, but it did not fix the time stamp problem. They suggested I contact Firefox. How can I fix this?

The timezone on my Gmail and a few other sites automatically changes to Africa/Abidjan time on Firefox. This is not an issue with my device as I've checked the timezone on system preferences and it is correctly set to my local time. Additionally, the timezone appears to be correct on other browsers. I checked Firefox on another device and found the same problem.

In Firefox loading the browser I can't scroll on many pages including my email program Private Email and my website. The right scroll bar doesn't show nor does the top of the page. I have cleared the cache, cookies and uninstalled Firefox and I still have the problem.

I have the right scroll bar in Chrome but not in Firefox. What's up? How do I fix it?

Yesterday I noticed that my saved passwords were not being retrieved from Firefox. I did do a Windows update before this happened. None of my passwords are able to be retrieved. My Firefox account says my sync is not working & that my account is disconnected. Which is weird bc I'm actually signed in to Firefox now - able to see my user name. What's going on here & how can I fix it? Thanks!

I hope someone can help! My Firefox account was hacked as was the email connected to it. I currently have no access to the primary email. I thought I added a secondary email, but I never got a password reset email so maybe I didn't. In any event, how can I contact Firefox to lock the account? I have a lot of sensitive information saved and I need that to be locked or better yet, erased.

HELP!!

P.S. - This refers to a different Firefox account than the one I am currently signed in with

Within the past few days, I've noticed Firefox act buggy and then got the message “The bookmarks and history system will not be functional … ” so I deleted my profile like it said so here. I had backed up all my extension settings beforehand, but it would be more convenient to backup and import them all at once with one or a few clicks.
