I recently got an update for windows 11 and now when I open firefox as many as 10 firefox browsers open at the same time. I have to close the ones I don't want or leave them in the background. I don't know if this was caused by the update or if it is a problem with firefox?

This is a little difficult to describe, but In Firefox 159 on macOS, the screen very quickly "flashes" when hitting the "Page Up" or "Page Down" buttons on the keyboard. I didn't notice this as much before. It's subtle, but it's something that jumped out at me when I recently opened Firefox to try it again. This is different behavior from Chromium-based browsers, which are possibly painting the screen's new contents faster? I'm not sure what it is, but it's a little distracting.

To Whom it may concern,

I was trying to change my method of payment for the VPN. It then took me to PayPal's website and the only option I get from them is to cancel it. Do I have to cancel it and then use the new way I want to pay for it after this month ends? Or would you be able to help change my payment method? Thank you!

Best Regards,

[[https://www.udyamregistration.gov.in/ Knowledge Base Article]]Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with www.udyamregistration.gov.in. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

I think the behaviour is triggered by the mac in sleep mode and resuming browsing. The issue only affects as far as I can tell LAN pages. Been over the pages https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/server-not-found-connection-problem?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

Another browser such as Safari or Chrome does load the page fine, but Firefox. Using the latest 159.0 but the issue I recall been around for a bit now.

Don't have proxy configured, disabled DNS prefetch, IPv6 support...deleted cache and cookies, restarted Firefox and no change. The only way I found to fix the behaviour by restarting the mac. Any ideas or thoughts on what could be going wrong here please?

(does it with home assistant, the synology NAS, and other LAN pages)

Unable to Sign In to My Google Accounts Using Firefox – Need Help

Hello Mozilla Firefox Support Community,

I am experiencing a serious issue when trying to sign in to my two personal Google Accounts using Firefox.

Both of my Google Accounts are currently locked, and despite trying Google's recommended account recovery steps multiple times, I have been unable to regain access.

Google only offers SMS verification, and unfortunately, I am not given any alternative verification methods.

I have tried signing in using Firefox, as well as familiar devices and locations, but I still cannot access either account.

The affected accounts are:

1. lotfi.smnh@gmail.com 2. samane.lotfi404@gmail.com

I would like to know whether there is anything in Firefox's settings, privacy protection, security features, or browser configuration that could be preventing Google from recognizing my device or allowing me to complete the sign-in process.

Could you please help me understand whether Firefox might be contributing to this issue and suggest any troubleshooting steps?

I understand that Google controls its own account recovery process, but I would appreciate any advice or assistance from the Firefox community.

Thank you very much for your time and support.

Best regards

Hello ! Can you help me please ? I have an older account ( [redacted] @ziggo.nl ) and this account has all my backup information and settings. But this account does not work anymore. So when I try to login in Firefox with [redacted] @ziggo.nl , and you send me a confirmation email, I will not reach this message and I can not confirm my e-mailadres. Now I have made a new account ( [redacted] @gmail.com ) so I can login in Mozilla, but I don't have my backup bookmarks. Is there a way that you can send me this information ? Or you copy the bookmarks to my new account ? After that I can delete the older account. Waiting for your reply, Greetings, Daniel

The place to designate the default save folder for bookmarks has disappeared. It used to be in settings. If it is no longer in settings is there somewhere in about:config to select default save folder for bookmarks?

There is an entry: browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation However it is some nonsensical coded entry: 9OZ32sF7u5y7 I do not know if it can be replaced with a folder name.
