Firefox Support Forum

[Yesterday 12:57 PM] Mills, Ed Our HTML for has this:

<input type='hidden' id='dir' name='dir' value='datasets/open/2023-06-07_09:54:40'> <input type='hidden' id='fileCount' name='fileCount' value='0'>

When posted , both IE and Chrome have: $vars{dir} = 'datasets/open/2023-06-07_09:54:40' $vars{fileCount}=0

BUT, Firefox 114.0 has only this: $vars{dir} = 0

Since it appeared that firefox was somehow "merging" the two tags into one, I reversed the order to this to see if the new first var would post. But instead, now this works 100% fine: <input type='hidden' id='fileCount' name='fileCount' value='0'> <input type='hidden' id='dir' name='dir' value='datasets/open/2023-06-07_09:54:40'>

The system is working again. chatAI suggested a few things like updating firefox (I did) , but nothing they suggested worked. Only my reversal worked.

Thoughts?

Hi When I'm watching videos on Firefox especially while on YouTube, the whole browser turns white for a few seconds. It sometimes pauses the whole video but almost every time the audio is still playing and I can't see the video. I looked at other similar problems but turning on and off hardware acceleration does nothing. I have the latest GPU drivers and I'm using a laptop.

I'm having an issue where PDF files I download are blurry when I zoom in on them in Firefox, but when I use, for example, Edge, it zooms in fine. I've tried reinstalling Firefox, but it didn't make any difference. It happens to all PDFs I've tried.

My Firefox account is synchronized across my personal devices and my work laptop. This has been working fine for a while, until today I got an error on my work laptop that "Using an older version of Firefox can corrupt bookmarks and browsing history already saved to an existing Firefox profile". I suppose this is because it's using version 102.12.0esr, whereas my PC uses version 114.0.

My workplace won't let me just install the normal version of Firefox.

So in my search for a solution, my first hope is that someone can provide some magic solution, maybe?

If there is no such thing, I'd like to know if there's an esr version right around the corner that will fix this?

In the event that I'm all outta luck, what I'd like to be able to do is try to disconnect my profile on the laptop from synchronization, and then force it to open, hopefully it will work and then I won't have synchronization anymore but at least I'll have my profile as it currently is. Can someone tell me how to do this, if it's possible?

What I absolutely want to avoid at all costs is to manually rebuild my profile. Restoring all my settings, including those hidden in about:config, and all my extensions' settings by hand is going to be a nightmare.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I'm on the latest non-beta version of Firefox on my PC, but my problem has been happening for over a month now. Whenever I add a new bookmark, Firefox has started remembering the last folder I saved a bookmark into. That's not really a helpful feature but, worse still, it doesn't actually save the bookmark into that folder but saves it into Bookmarks Menu instead. I then have to add the bookmark again and choose the folder I want to save it into, as on the second attempt it defaults to Bookmarks Menu as the location. Sometimes the new bookmark remains in the Bookmarks Menu after the second save regardless of what other folder I select. I haven't checked to see if the bookmarks are being duplicated in that scenario.

I've been assuming that this was a bug and have been expecting it to be fixed, but there have been several new releases of Firefox since I started having the problem and it still remains. Moreover, I can't find anything online to suggest that other people are having the same issue, which makes me think it's something to do with my system.

I'd be grateful for any assistance you can provide please.

I set my browser to use English instead of my local language and I expect sites to use English by default. Now for some reason Gmail showed me a "do you want to leave this page" browser dialogue in language other than English.

Turns out, there's a new(?) option to set alternative interface languages, and I suppose websites can now choose which one to use?

Wow, just noticed, even tooltips on this website aren't in English anymore. This is extremely annoying.

I'd love to remove the alternate language from that list and leave Firefox interface exclusively in English. There is no option to remove the second language, only to move priority (see screenshot).

Searching through about:config with "language" didn't help. The closest relevant result was for the dictionaries. I do not have problems with dictionaries; "alternate" did not bring any relevant results either.

A webpage has 1,200 rows.

I do Select All or drag the cursor from the first row to the last row to highlight all of the rows.

I then do Copy.

When I do Paste (using Match Destination Formatting) to paste the copied rows into an empty Excel spreadsheet, only about 65 rows get posted.

What am I doing wrong?

Dear Team,

I'm using version 114.0 (64 bits) with Eset Internet Security 16.1.14.0 installed on a Windows 10 machine 22H2 Build 19045.2965. I have refreshed Firefox from previous version yesterday (06/06/2023) (it asked me to restart the browser). Since then I cannot load any page (not even the about:crashes or settings or passwords, or any website). All pages keep on crashing, the reports are not generated nor sent to support. I have tried to locate the crash reports under APPDATA, but none being generated. I also tried to disable my anti-virus software thinking it may cause an issue, but still no luck. The same happens in Safe mode as well. Tried clean install as well, but again the same thing happens.

Kindly look into it!

Best regards,

Sandor

There are many mainstream websites that have stopped functioning in firefox that work perfectly fine when switching over to brave and enabling scripts

these are not obscure sites, they are sites for privacy protecting entities hence the lack of function on firefox is perplexing

how do we make these sites work in firefox again to save the switching to brave?

I'm amazed, just AMAZED I can't find the answer to this with a simple google search, or searching the questions here, and I re-worded my search several times. All the answers I could find, even chatGPT (I know it's not alway sup to date) told me to use this option even though I specifically told it it wasn't there, is anyone aware that sometimes the option isn't there? What gives? Not blaming anyone specifically, but this a really simple question, I'm I the first person it's ever happened to?

I'm trying to fix a sound problem where videos will not play, and this is a suggested step. The sound on youtube videos plays with Google Chrome, so it's not my sound drivers, just with firefox it doesn't play. One of the steps as well was the clear my info, I cleared everything except history, I wished there was a way to back those up, I'll look it up.

Starting firefox in safe mode doesn't fix the problem either.

I constantly get logged out of ESPN on Firefox. Doesn't happen on any other browser using the same plugins. It's inexcusable for this issue to persist for nearly 6 months now. The worst part is that I can't log back in. The "Log In" button won't work and I'll have to sign all the way out of ESPN+ just the sign back in. It's happened 26 times this year. Firefox is getting worse by the day.

I use mozilla on two machines. They both have gotten to where they lock up when trying to access a second page. The normal place they lockup is "waiting nexusensighten.com". I talked with etrade and they had me try MS edge. It works without a problem. I've started having the same problem with yahoo mail.

I deleted cache and cookies numerous time. Etrade guy had me just type etrade.com to get started. It didn't help.

I update automatically. Thanks for your help.

like the title says, i installed the latest Firefox update and my graphics driver started crashing every few minutes. tried updating my graphics card driver (Nvidia RTX3070) and tried to set the browser to software rendering, but nothing helps, it keeps going black and restart every few minutes.

There really should be a option to revert from a update, i had this a lot with Firefox, troubles after updates. And with no way to fix it, so i have to use another browser until it is fixed..kinda troublesome.

Everything worked normally for me for 2 years, but recently i decided to reinstall windows. So i did it, downloaded firefox on raw system and now i get this error on some youtube videos. I tried everything i could find but nothing fixed this issue. It pops up with firefox account, without it, in private vindows, in regular ones, with addons, without them. I tried reinstalling firefox, i updated every driver, i use google DNS, but it still doesnt work. In edge, chrome etc. theese videos play fine

Dear support, I'd like to ask you about auto-update option enabled in Mozilla Firefox. In our company we have Mozilla Firefox ESR onboarded and in use. One of our security report showed that Firefox version we use across company is vulnerable - because not all machines have the latest version installed. So I was a bit surprised because I know that auto-update is enabled for this application. I've checked it on my machine and I've got the latest version once I open Firefox and check via "About" button, right after that I've got the latest update installed. Together with my colleague we checked it on her machine whether it's really needed to check the version manually and then update is installed or is installed in the background and seems that my colleague got an update without manually checking the version, she just left the app open and after some time we checked the version and it was already updated.

My question is - is it enough to have Firefox open and it installed the latest version in the background without any action needed from user? Or user has to manually check the version and afterwards the update will be installed?

Another question I have, is the application vulnerable even if the app is not open?

Thank you in advance & BR
