Forum communautaire Firefox

Simple problem; complex solution? I work between two laptops and send files from one PC to the other by email. This week I could not download the sent files on Yahoo Mail. It literally just stopped downloading. I checked my security settings, created an exception for Yahoo Mail, double checked MS Defender, but nothing seems to be blocking it that I can see. I tried to review other sources, but could not find something for this situation. Help?

woke up yesterday and suddenly my browser is largely non-functional.

When opening a file browsing window to upload or attach a file, where firefox would normally open my OS's file browser (Dolphin) it now opens a hideous firefox tab with extremely limited functionality (no file sort/ search/ open, or access to most of my system), and the Download toolbar is now completely broken. Clicking a file opens a little dialogue box that asks "Open with System Handler?" and does nothing upon clicking OK. Nothing also happens on clicking the folder icon to the right, which would normally open a Dolphin window with the file in question selected.

I'm running Linux devuan: Linux MikesPI 6.1.93 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 8 02:37:53 CET 2025 aarch64 GNU/Linux and Firefox 140.4.0esr (aarch64).

For years now I've been downloading and saving Yahoo quotes as csv, now for the last week Firefox wants to save page image poping up an extra window that must be refused before I can continue using Firefox. Hopefully someone can tell me what new option in about:config can be turned off to stop this. Thanks, Mike

We run the www.rarlab.com website and several users have complained that the download of the exe file for the English version of WinRAR 7.20 downloads a 0mb file and is also flagged as malicious. The file can be downloaded easily on the Edge browser and it is considered safe by Google too.

Youtube webpages won't load properly after saving. They start to load but then switch to a white page. I need to be able to save a video's webpage to save links and other information for later viewing. This started happening on any computer 2 or 3 months ago. I'm thinking that youtube did something that causes the saving of their webpages to be messed up. Youtube webpages display fine on youtube.com but saving their webpages doesn't work anymore.

I have three failed downloads that are stuck on the list. Retrying them does nothing, and deleting them does nothing.

Incidentally, the images that those failed downloads link to are online and available.

How do I get rid of them?

Every Time I Try To Print Something It Fails Every Time Why? How Do I Fix This Or Am I Screwed?

Intel Pentium 4 4 Core CPU Windows 7 32 Bit OS SSD Hard Drive

The Best Antivirus On The Planet Bit Defender

I Don't Have A Physical Printer Because I Can't Afford The Ink Cartridges They Are Out Of My Price Range

So Instead I Have A Piece Of Software Installed That Prints Stuff To Files Mostly PDF Files!

The problem Is For Some Reason Or Another I Can't Get The Damn Thing To Work Or Even Play Nice With This Browser!

If You Can Fix This That Will Be Great! I Have No Idea How! Please Help Thank You and have a Nice day!

Firefox fails to download any files. I've asked for help before, but did not receive a response. Files download well when using MS Edge. Using Windows 10 and latest version of Firefox. Help please.

Friday February 6, 2026

Been using Firefox since 2014 and as my primary browser for personal research, etc. and Google's Chrome about half the time for company-related work. It's been my favorite browser. I'm using the current updated Firefox 147.0.3 (aarch64) and and Apple's O/S macOS Sequoia Version 15.7.3.

However, for at least 8 months or more now, Firefox has become completely unreliable for downloading files to save on my virtual drive in my MacBook Pro M3 Max because it often if not always freezes up in the process. I have to curse again (!) then Force Quit, reboot, and everything instantly comes back up on the monitor as if nothing happened, only of course I did not accomplish the task of downloading and saving the file I needed to handle.

I have discovered by talking to folks and by researching Firefox's support information library that I'm "not alone".  Not by far.  This problem IS a Firefox issue.  I've tried to follow Firefox's several different solutions to overcome whatever the root cause of the problem is, but without success.  The TIME required to really go through this problem-solving process is a killer.  And, yea, since I'm physically practically in OPEN AI's backyard, I have consulted CHAT GPT and it also confirmed this issue between Firefox and Apple's O'S macOS Sequoia Version 15.7.3 and practically gave me a Masters thesis about.  Who has time for this?  Why can't Firefox solve this problem to make this easy for us?

S0 now, before I update my O/S to macOS Tahoe 26.3, does anyone know if between Apple and Firefox this problem has been solved? For 10 years it was never a problem. What the heck happened? Firefox is no longer my primary browser, for I never know for sure whether or not I'll need to download and save to my Mac's virtual drive a file.

Thanks for any constructive comments anyone may make! And Happy Friday. ~ GPB
