Hello. I am not familiar with this end to end encryption that Facebook now does for Messenger but now when I try to use Video Calling/Chat it tells me it is not supported by my browser, Firefox. I have never had any problems with it before. Is there a fix? Thanks

Version: 115.16.1esr.

Hello.

I am sure that this is a 'known issue' but, when I attempted to update the browser just now, it failed and directed me to install it manually.

Is there a time estimate when this glitch will be fixed?

I know that typically mozilla does not put a low bound on advisories, and https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2024-40/ is the advisory for vulnerabilities fixed in ESR 128.2. CVE-2024-8387 is listed here. yet the advisory for 115, https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2024-41/ does not list this vulnerability. Was this something that was only impacting 128 (for the ESR builds) or is there a mistake that either 115.15 did patch it but it wasn't documented, or the patch has been missed and ESR 115 is still vulnerable?

I upgraded my version of Firefox from an ESR version to v129.0.1 on Debian 12. Drag and drop of files from the desktop or the file manager (PCManFM-Qt) into the browser stopped working. It is still working properly in Chrome.

This occurs with several web apps but, as an example, it occurs when trying to drag a jpeg into Roundcube Webmail while composing a message.

No browser console errors are genrated when trying to do this. It occurs in Troubleshooting (safe) mode as well. In apps that pop-up a "Drag files here" target, that target still appears but dropping the file on it does nothing.

Currently on 131.0.3. Started having this issue around the time 131 dropped.

I press Ctrl-shift-O and bookmarks manager won't open. Bookmarks manager opens normally if I use the menu to open it. Keybind won't work in troubleshooting mode so I know it's not an addon, and the hotkey works fine on other computers with Sync enabled so I know it doesn't have to do with my synchronized settings. Also won't open with a fresh profile so I am very hesitant to reset all my settings.

I use this keybind multiple times per browsing session so it has had a major impact on my usage. Not sure what to do. Please help!

I'm going to try a graphics driver update in the hope that helps. This is on Windows btw.

Hi! I'm using Firefox 126.0 on Fedora 39.

Pages from Amazon.co.uk load very slowly, incompletely, or not at all. All other Web sites are fine.

I had a couple of certificate-related errors saying that the identity of the site couldn't be verified, but I can't reproduce the problem, so I can't quote the exact wording, I'm afraid.

The same Amazon pages load properly in Chrome on the same machine, and they load properly in Firefox in a VM on the same machine. That tells me network connectivity must be fine.

I've tried disabling all extensions, reverting to the default theme, running in Troubleshoot Mode, clearing cookies and site data, clearing the startup cache, disabling hardware acceleration, and creating a new profile. The new profile helps slightly, in that it loads more of the page before getting stuck. Nothing else helps at all.

I'd prefer not to refresh Firefox if I can avoid it, because I don't want to lose all my plugins and settings. This installation is five years old. Besides, a new profile didn't fix the problem.

What's the next thing to try? I'd really appreciate any ideas.

Hello. I installed the add on Tranquility Reader, found I did not like it, and uninstalled it. I have restarted my Firefox, as well as my PC, several times, but I still do not have graphics back like they were before. Am I missing something? Or has my whole system just gone on to another world??? So Aggravated! TIA Christie

I'm using this shortcut all the time and I recently found out it doesn't work as expected. From the Firefox documentation the ctrl+shift+t should re-open the latest closed tab, but this is not the case for me, it always re-open the latest closed window. Which behave exactly as ctrl+shift+n.

From my short research it's not possible to customize Firefox shortcuts without using an extensions, therefore I also don't know how to verify if the shortcuts have changed just form my browser/configuration.

The problem I encounter has happened since I begin to use Firefox on Windows 11. The same problem happened to my Macbook as well, but a workaround is available. While with Windows 11, I can't find the solution anywhere on the web. Whenever I type on the browser, if I write a non-character notation right behind the word (like "this,"), the word would usually auto delete itself or sometimes, the word clone itself out (e.g, wordword, thisthi, etc.) or it deletes a small section of words right behind that non-char. I don't have insert turning on. I am quite uncertain whether you can reproduce this error on your laptop (for me, I have been through 2 windows 11 laptop and this error still persist). This error seems to only occurs for Vietnamese (Telex and VNI) default keyboard from Microsoft, Russian and English work fine. I suspect that it is caused by Microsoft Vietnamese, but I have unchecked all kind of spelling checking on settings. So should I use a third-party Vietnamese language typing for this situation or does it caused by something else?

I've just transferred from one Windows 10 install to another, and wanted to transfer my Firefox profiles along with me. Initially when I transferred over my main profile, the addons worked at first but broke after a short while (specifically there were still as many addon buttons in my toolbar as before, but they were all blank and did nothing), and wouldn't restore after shutting down and reopening Firefox. At first I tried disabling and reenabling each extension, and that worked, but after shutting down and reopning Firefox, they were all broken again. I looked for fixes and tried the solutions in this ask: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1260445; first, I tried jscher2000's solution of "deleting" extensions.json by renaming it, but it only fixed a couple addons (BitWarden and uBlock Origin, mainly). Then I tried cor-el's solution of deleting combatibility.ini, and that still only had BitWarden, uBlock Origin, and maybe one or two others working - it also seemed to slightly further the problem, as the toolbar was now set to default without even the blank addon buttons, and the extensions overflow button now just opened about:addons.

But, then I deleted the profile and copied it over again, but this time I preemptively went into extensions.json and changed all the paths to the new correct path (I also did so for the one path address in pkcs11.txt just in case, because it was the only other thing that came up in a search in the profile folder that had that hard-baked full path that might need updating; I don't know what pkcs11.txt does but I just wanted to be sure), and then (not sure if this part matters quite as much) did Create a New Profile and selected that existing copied-over folder as the folder for that profile to use. Lo and behold, all my addons worked! And they've continued to work as normal and not break through several times of closing and reopening both that specific profile and Firefox overall, and even with a couple shut downs and restarts of Windows.

However..... I tried doing that exact procedure (copying over profile folder, editing the paths in extensions.json and pkcs11.txt to be the new correct ones, Create a New Profile and selecting that folder) for my secondary profile, and yet still most addons end up nonfunctional with a defaulted toolbar and extension overflow button opening about:addons just like in the main profile after I did the compatibility.ini fix (even though I didn't even touch it on this profile). After several tries of doing that with differences in naming of the new profile, or also trying to delete compatibility.ini, still I got the same result. Then I tried doing the "disable and then reenable each extension" thing again like I tried first on my primary profile, and it brought the extensions back and in their correct order in the toolbar, but when I exited Firefox and reopened it, they were back to the multitude of blank buttons (which, at least, was a change from before). I have no idea what's different, as far as I'm aware I'm doing the exact same thing that worked on the first profile yet it's still ending up broken.

I've also now tried copying over a third profile in the same manner, and it works perfectly just like the first/primary profile did. But the second profile still just will not work.

I've been using Firefox for a few months now to follow online training courses or videos on the conversation papillon (www.conversationpapillon.com) and conversation santé (www.conversationsante.com) websites. For a few weeks now, the videos are no longer accessible on the pages of these two sites. The window of the video is empty. However, if I try the same link in Google Chrome, it works fine. I've contacted the publishers of these two sites, who tell me that nothing has changed on their sites in recent weeks. He advised me to contact you to find out more. Can you help me? I prefer to use Firefox, which protects my privacy better. Thanks in advance. Regards, Jean-Pierre R.

I had a dedicated Firefox webpage popup yesterday that listed all my open tabs, tab history. I closed it before I noted the address and how I got there. I searched through my browsing history and I don't see it. I have never been able to access that page before. How do I bring it up again?

Thanks!

Hi,

I have a Mac with Sonoma. Somehow a while ago I ended up with Firefox ESR, which I was told that will not be supported after September.

I am a non-technical user. While I do have Safari and Chrome, I would prefer to continue using Firefox.

Could you please let me know the steps to execute to somehow switch from the ESR version to the current normal version without loosing settings, bookmarks or ending up with problems? Thanks in advance.
