I have accessed the particular website many times but today it says, "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at shop.naturalcompounder.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)"

I have some names that pop up in an autofill dropdown when trying to input names. Some of them are misspelled and some are obsolete. How do i delete these? I've looked in Privacy and Settings and they are NOT present under "Addresses and more". Those are complete addresses with names. The ones i'm referring to are just names that pop up in an autofill drop down. These are names that i can't seem to find anywhere in Settings.

I came across another thread here that said try highlighting the name and Shift+Fn+Delete. This does not work

Thanks in advance.

Where are my favorites and my extensions? How do I get them back?

Honestly, I don't know that "topic" best describes my situation. I am not a "techy" and should not be required to be a "techy" to be able to use Firefox and have it not create terrible problems for me.


Where did my favorites and extensions and homepage go? I clicked "refresh" since you, Firefox, RECOMMENDED THAT I CLICK "REFRESH," and

EVERYTHING IS GONE.


Where is EVERYTHING? I cannot get it back and do not have anything saved. I trusted you. There is no Firefox folder saved to my desktop. There is NOTHING. I have simply lost about 50 FAVORITES PAGES that I NEEDED.


This is disgusting and a betrayal. Firefox? Never again.

Google search block on Firefox since last Firefox update June 2026

For the past few days when trying to use Google search on Firefox I get this message:

"Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?"

Then it makes me jump through several hoops to do a search on google.

This is a Firefox specific message as I can switch to Safari and there is no roadblock.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Any way to resolve?

Why this is a Firefox issue and not other browsers?

Every time I run Firefox 152.0b10 on Macos Tahoe 26.5.1 Mini it flickers and crashes. Its reporting a webrender compositor error. I made a new installation and it worked but I will have lost all my extensive userChrome/Content customization, as well as hours of time today and more hours to come transferring across and doing things like typing this out and checking versions.

And it flickers awfully on the new installation so is unusable. What should I do? I'm typing this on my Macbook Pro with M3 Pro & Macos Sequoia 15.2, which is not running Tahoe as it bricks all the Adobe software on the laptop. I refuse to rent Photoshop and Premiere for the exhorbitant price Adobe charge, and am transitioning to DaVinci products but not yet done learning.

I have cleared all caches, reset all the hardware acceleration stuff to off or force-disabled, and done everything else suggested by any and every AI agent, like switch off Widevine for a bit then on, or stop UBlock0 running in any way, shape or form. Things change when such things are done but don't work.
