I have the latest version of firefox (quatium) and I still have the DoS bug that crashes my whole PC at random when clicking on icons, either on the desktop or website. I did research on it and it is a know issue. Do you have a fix for it.

What is the relevant timeout that would make it not-happen? I get this error at 1 site. When I try on a public (therefore Windoze) computer, it takes about 9 minutes to connect. Firefox on Linux quits before then, even though I have increased all my timeouts to > 10 minutes.

Morning all
FF69.0.1 on a new Win 10 Pro 64 bit machine.
I successfully installed Trusteer and the icon appeared ok in the address bar. It has now disappeared. I think I may have dragged it into oblivion with an inaccurate mouse click.
It's enabled as an Add on.
Any suggestions how to retrieve it?

Every time I open firefox it asks me to sign in to my profile. When I do, I have lost all of my bookmarks etc.

I then go into about:profiles and have to delete multiple profiles that have appeared and set my original one to default, which works fine and i have all my bookmarks back. However as soon as I switch my macbook off and on again, I am back to square one and have to delete old profiles and set my old one to default. This is incredibly frustrating.

Mac OS X High Sierra 10.13.6
Here's the routine with FF on this machine: If FF 68.0.2 is running, after a while I will try to open a new tab and be told "Sorry we need to do one small thing to keep going, FF has been updated in the background, Restart FF" I do so. It opens up a new, clean profile in a new window (About FF now says 68.0.1 in this version of FF, and it downloads 68.0.2 and prompts to Restart FF (again)). At which point it runs "a new helper tool" and re-updates FF to 68.0.2. I then have to mess with about:profiles to go back to my profile. Things then run routinely for a few hours or a day, before the whole routine starts over again.
Alternately, if FF 68.0.2 is not running, if I open it (after opening and closing it several times without issue), I will get a message that "You've launched an older version of FF, Create New Profile or Quit". Create New Profile leads me through the routine above.
Versions of the above routine have happened not just between 68.0.2 and 68.0.1, but also between earlier version updates. That is, this has been going on for months. It does seem in the last couple of weeks that the interval of time has shortened and I'm having to do this routine everyday or even multiple times a day. I have no problems like this with FF on any other machine.
I've tried:
Trashing FF and re-dl'ing from Mozilla. No dice. Trashing FF, trashing Library/Cache/Mozilla and Firefox folders. No dice. Trashing FF, trashing Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles (and re-signing in to retrieve my existing bookmarks etc and re-setting up View and other Preferences). No dice.
If anyone has any ideas, I'll be grateful, thanks in advance.
How do you permanently disable window dragging?

Left-clicking in the blank area of the menu bar engages window dragging behavior and I need this to stop. This behavior is already defined on my desktop by using a modifier key (ALT) and the default Firefox behavior circumvents this preference.
The recommended solution to alter my GTK-3 preferences via stylesheets does not work. The issue appears to be that XUL ignores the GTK window-dragging settings in preference to its own. I can verify correct behavior in other GTK-3 applications.
My current solution is editing the libxul.so library and modifying the -moz-window-dragging elements to prevent this behavior but this apparently disables HTML inspection. I have tried to follow guides related to custom XUL stylesheets but have not found a viable solution.
What is the correct way to disable this behavior?

One can select whole "words"/segments in the address field by double-click-dragging and then releasing; just like a regular selection is click-dragging and then releasing.
The bug is when you double-click-drag and then release the mouse button _outside of the address field_. The "mouse up" event fails to stop selecting text, it makes text blue like if you still held the button down.
To clarify, here's pseudo code of how to select some text (works):
1. Move cursor to the middle of the address. 2. Mouse button down. 3. Move cursor to the side, possibly outside of the address field. 4. Mouse button up.
Result: you selected half of the address, and can now e.g. copy it. However, pseudo code of what does NOT work:
1. Move cursor to the middle of the address. 2. Mouse button down, mouse button up, mouse button down. 3. Move cursor to the side, outside of the address field. 4. Mouse button up.
Result: as you move the cursor around, you are still in the process of changing the selection.
I'm on Firefox Developer edition `70.0b7 (64-bit)`.

Print Size changed in Firefox and the printed page comes out very small. I have to set it to fill the page every time and it still does not fill the page. I do not want to have to save a file first before printing. If I use Control Print from a selected email I get an Error message. It still shows my printer window. It also comes out small when I click the Print icon in an email window. I'm leaving Firefox if this can't be fixed. I shouldn't have to work this hard or have difficulties with print settings in a browser.

when carrying out a search this white box appears that I think maybe an iframe. It cannot be removed and therefore I cannot click on any of the links in search results.

Since FF 69 the starting (not the loading!) of websites frequently lasts more than 10 seconds under Xubuntu. The tab remains empty during this waiting time, while no sign of the loading process can be seen: The tab header shows no title, only the URL. The animated loading icon of the tab header is not shown. The status bar shows no activity. For about 5 to 20 seconds it looks like the tab is frozen. (See hardcopy.) This phenomenon occurs irregularly, but repeatedly, approximately with 10-20 percent of all calls, regardless of the requested URLs. It typically occurs piled within a random period, that lasts between a some seconds and several minutes. It also happens in safe mode, regardless of the used profile (even an unmodified new profile) and both in private an non-private windows. As far as I can judge, the troubleshooting Information shows no abnormalities. There are no issues with the internet connection. I've been using Firefox trouble-free for more than 10 years, but this phenomenon only occurred since Firefox 69.0.

My firefox is up to date. It is on 69.0.1 (Quantum).
I cannot re-enable the addons. The only way to get it to work is to redownload it manually.
I have already reset the app.update.lastUpdateTime.xpi-signature-verification preference in about:config. Still same problem.
Similar questions have been asked in the forums 4 months ago. Apparently there has been a hotfix pushed out to update since then, but it probably isnt doing anything for my firefox.

I have this issue with Firefox for a while now, where whatever webpage I may try to load (including www.google.com) will not load sometimes unless I close the tab and open it again and reinput the address or just refresh many times or sometimes it won't work unless I close and restart Firefox several times. At this time, I literally simply even gave up trying to open the Firefox support page in Firefox and installed Chrome for the first time in order to submit this ticket.

Moving with my notebook computer from one WLAN to another (in another part of the building), either closed (thus in "sleep mode") or not closed, very often results in a loss of all connections. FF says that it cannot find the servers any more, while a direct "ping" or other softwares have no problem seeing and connecting to the servers.
I tried different proxy settings, but this did not change the situation. Normally the only "solution" is to close or "kill" the firefox, and after a new start also the FF finally "gets it" properly.
