Forum communautaire Firefox

Starting last night, Microsoft wants me to login with my username and password. However, it will not allow me to input those factors. I have Windows 11 and am using a new desktop cube made by KAMRUI. I detest the control Microsoft is forcing on me. Can I delete my MS account? I don't use their products. Also, I am disgusted by their manipulation and invasion of my privacy. What are my options, in this case?

Most recent Firefox update is screwed up. I am getting >26 instances that locks up mouse etc. I have to shut down with task Manager to recover and the cycle starts all over. It really sucks. Just started with latest update. 130.0.1 64 bit

Used FF for many years. At end of rope. Robert

I am a long time user of Firefox (I remember the Netscape days...) Recently, I have come across rumblings about Firefox privacy defaults. At first i dismissed it as the usual whinging, but then i started to see what appears to almost be forks of Firefox. I have already ditched Thunderbird because of their nonsensical thread defaults. Surely, Firefox with its privacy focus wouldn't be making privacy decisions from collaboration with other browser companies like google & Microsoft? One of the early really great privacy innovations was in containers, but it is still an extension. Why? Because of the architecture of Chrome, its is not possible to have containers in chrome engined browsers. So is that why Mozilla didn't progress containers? Did the money from Google for default search engine (shame on you Mozilla) come with strings attached? I came across Librewolf which mostly use the Firefox code but with much more stringent privacy defaults, and with bundled ad blocker as part of the default installation. How can it claim to be more privacy focused than Firefox when it uses Firefox code? Firefox is supposedly the privacy focus browser so why is it following what Chrome and Edge do? They will NEVER gain lost market share by watering down their privacy settings which is the reason to even exist. It just antagonizes users like me. Or is that the point, a nice easy progression till oblivion and we all then accept an advertisement riddled internet.

So the concept of pinned tabs is now commonplace across most browsers. But I find Firefox's implementation to be absolutely stupid. So the purpose of a pinned tab is to KEEP the tab there. However in Firefox if you pin a tab, then open another window - the pinned tab isn't there. Then if you happen to close the window with the pinned tab, it's gone! What is the point of having pinned tabs if they aren't TRULY PINNED?!!

If you want to see how pinned tabs are done right, check out Apple's Safari. My message to the Firefox desktop team is...FIX THIS CRAP! Thanks

I can no longer type into the Google Search Bar in Firefox ONLY. I've removed the Proxy setting and cleared my cache but the issue remains. Clicking any key reverts to the web search bar at the top. Google is my default search engine.

I can no longer open Nordstrom.com website, Chewy.com website, and now Costco.com websites? I even changed passwords on those accounts but firefox will no longer open. It just sits there doing nothing when i sign in, even if i disable the shield? Why and why are more and more websites doing this on Firefox yet Google Chrome allows me to, so i have to open Google Chrome to be able to get to websites i used to open on Firefox. Please Fix as this is Very Annoying!!!

I have been using FF for years and have been doing online banking. I cannot get into the bank's web site anymore. I can get in with Chrome but don't want to. Please help.

I recently installed a new version of Firefox as advised on opening my browser. Since the new version was installed I am now missing very important passwords and all the bookmarks from my other bookmarks folder. I have tried going through the trouble shooting procedures but without success, I'm just being sent round in circles. I have been using Firefox for the past eleven years and have never experienced losing any passwords or bookmarks in the past.

Hi I just had to reset my windows installation, I am currently signed in on my account on my phone. I was signed in on the computer as well before the reset, after the reset I tried to sign in and I realized I have forgotten my password. I really don't want to have to reset my password because I just now learned that it resets all of my passwords and history. I would love to know how I can move forward without the loss of all my passwords.. Short of using my phone account to look Each one and physically write down the passwords. I mean if I have to, I have to.. but I would really rather not. please if you could help I would really appreciate it..

my tabs are crashing all the time whenever i try to open it.this thing is happening from a month as whenever i try to open some tabs for my work its showing that "gah! your tab just crashed!"...... please sovle this problem as fast as possible

I updated Firefox yesterday and today I cannot access any comment sections on stories (Yahoo). I have re-booted my computer and cleared my cache. I looked at my privacy and security section of Firefox, but couldn't see anything that might affect this. In the past, I sometimes have to re-load the page to access the comments, but that is not working either. Here is the message that shows up: Oops, something went wrong :( We detected some connectivity issues therefore we’re unable to load the Conversation

Comments were working fine before the Firefox update.

Any suggestions?

I was wondering if anyone knew of any other methods of recovering lost tabs after Firefox lost them all?

I've recovered the JSON file within the session file of FF which once scourged shows all the URLs and registers they are all there - however every method to try and get Firefox to load from this JSON has refused to work.

Any methods or advice would be appreciated greatly.

Hello!

I have a problem which seems to be only with my Firefox browser regarding Royal Mail emails!

I use a Mac desktop computer, and my email account is with btinternet.com

Recently, when I get an email notification about an (expected) delivery from Royal Mail, the actual content of the email is blank when I’m using Firefox as my browser.

At first, I assumed this was btinternet.com blocking Royal Mail, for some reason. However, I discovered yesterday that this problem does not exist when I access my email via Safari or DuckDuckGo! I can access the content of the emails just fine if I use either of these other browsers.

I also have Firefox installed on my iPad AND on my Android phone. The same thing happens on both of these devices as well—so this is not an issue with my Mac computer. I can access the content of the email from Royal Mail via either Safari (on my iPad) or DuckDuckGo (on iPad AND my android phone.) However, neither of these will show me the email when I use Firefox.

I can access the actual Royal Mail website with Firefox on my computer, no problem. It’s just when I try to open emails from them that the problem arises.

No idea what is causing this anomaly. I can’t pinpoint exactly when it started, but it’s been going on for at least a month and maybe more.

I use the latest version of Firefox at all times on all devices, and my operating systems are up to date on my devices as well. (I have the latest version of Sonoma on my Mac, I have iOS 17.7 on my iPad, and whatever the latest update for Motorola e14 is.)

I’m hoping you can offer a bit of advice. This is very annoying, as Firefox is my default browser on both my Mac AND my Motorola phone.

Hello,

I know this question has already been asked but the contents where a little different and the answer didn't really help me... I noticed this a few times and researched a few times but it didn't help.

Because of performance issues I checked my Task-manager and realized that RAM (and sometimes CPU but RAM ist my main focus) are being used extensively through Firefox: - a lot of Firefox-processes are open - this stays the case when I restart - also if just 1 tab open Now from my research I know I'm not the only one and it's supposed to be normal to some extend. But right now I've got 13 processes open! They are all under C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe Then they are quiet similar: - Contentproc... Channel=xxxx (--> 4 numbers that vary ) - child ID x (--> 1 or 2 number that varys) OR ParentbuildID xxx (a lot of numbers that vary) (From now on I stop putting xxxes for numbers, but there still are numbers everywhere) - then some say IsforBrowser others SandBoxingKind others nothing here - Then they seem to all have prefshandle , prefmaphandle, prefslen, prefmapsixe - Then it varys again: --> For example one process which currently uses 500mb on it's own then says: jsInitHandle, jsInitLen, parentBuildID, win32kLockedDown -appDir.. C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\browser, (then signs and numbers and later) gecko-crash-server-pipe

Please help.

They can't all be okay and necessary, can they? How can I recognize which Processes have which reason? Maybe some extensions are the problem? Maybe some processes are old and can be closed/erased? Anything to do with preferences on homepages or passwords? And if so, which is which? No preference is worth so much RAM to me ^^ But I don't wan't to erase everything on every homepage for nothing or very little mb either ;-)

Oh, yeah so some of those processes use only between 1 and 10 MB, others mostly around 40 MB (10-100 MB) but some of them (right now 3) use between 220 and 470 MB. Right now this sums up to more then 1GB, my only open tab is this Support Tab. It becomes a lot more while using Firefox.

Thanks in Advance.

Greetings, Mozilla Community I'm contacting you to ask for help with a problem I'm having with Mozilla Firefox that comes up when I try to visit https://deraltersrechner.de/. It won't load, and I'm not sure if that's because of a bug in the website, a browser issue, or something else entirely.

Does anyone else have knowledge of this problem or recommendations for a fix? I've attempted removing addons and cleaning the cache in my browser, but the issue still exists.

I would be grateful for any advice or ideas on improving the usability of the website. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

When I export Passwords the file has 3 col timeCreated timeLastUsed timePasswordChanged

that do not show as date or time format - I try formatting in excel and no good.. Yes I hit convert when opening the csv vis excel Thank you

Firefox regularly disconnects from internet while other browsers keep on working. I have disable all addons, still have the same problem. It works and then it suddenly just sits there and spins forever trying to load a page, while I can still work on other browsers. I have 1000s of tabs open so it would be very sad to have to switch to another browser.
