Forum d’assistance Firefox

When I open a website where there is a document upload feature and I want to upload a document but when I click the button to upload a document Firefox can't respond, I've tried several methods such as deleting cache, even reinstalling but I still encounter this problem.

I can't add images to this report because of this problem

Thank you

Good morning:

When I click on Help and then About Firefox I see the message 'Checking for updates' and then I get 'Failed to check for updates'

I have manually installed FF 115.2.1 and know 115.3.0 is available. Using Win10 and FireFox is on a portable USB stick

Attached are a screen shot and the Enterprise Policies.

What am I missing?

thanks Norbert

My old computer (Windows 10) finally died, beyond economic (or even possible) repair. The SSDs on it have been copied. How do I access and restore the bookmarks from the drive copy to my new PC (Windows 11).

9/30/23 ~ I think the last automatic update, for my Firefox browser, messed up my access to Zynga. I'd like to uninstall the update. I've seen where I could "start over", with Firefox, but I can't seem to find it again. I'm willing to go back to the basics if I could play my game again! What do I do? I've done all the things I needed to do via Zynga (over and over) and it's not helping!

Dear all, I have unchecked all the boxes in "Settings/Search/Search Suggestions" and disabled history for the search engine and yet Firefox still displays search suggestions in the address bar. They even have a small header called "Firefox Suggest". How can I turn this off? Thanks for your help, Markus

Windows 11 Home 22H2 FF 118.0.1 (64-bit)

I cannot stream china open tennis via tennis tv - login problems, crashing problems. Unresponsive to login details Sometimes I can log in but then cannot open specific matches Other times the screen just goes blank There is an account login icon in lower left hand corner of the screen, but if I try to refresh the screen the icon changes its nature and does not respond, then I cannot log in or out It is random and unreliable when I am trying to stream the tennis I have never had this problem with this website before, and I have been a subscriber for 5 years The first two photos are how the login icon should look. The third shows what is happening to the login icon The fourth photo is the blank screen that I sometimes get and cannot move away from - the screen is stuck I really dont want to have to use Safari and definitely not Chrome Sherrill Carta shcarta@gmailcom

Hello,

I'm setting up Mailerlite sign-up forms on my Wordpress website https://jilldobsonwriter.com. (I'm using the HTML option because I can't get the Mailerlite plugin to work for me. That's a whole other story.)

The URL on the landing page produces the sign-up 'success' message.

The embedded form on the blog page (https://jilldobsonwriter.com/blog-2/) does not.

I have attached a screenshot of the webpage that appears (https://assets.mailerlite.com/jsonp/521838/forms/95057252703012500/subscribe).

This doesn't happen on Microsoft Edge.

My guess is that Firefox and Mailerlite aren't playing nicely, hence a subscriber gets this 'under the bonnet' view rather than being progressed straight through to the success message.

And yes, everything is updated.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

There used to be a solution via userChrome.css:

/* separate stop and reload buttons */

1. reload-button, #stop-button {

 display: -moz-box !important;

}

The above workaround no longer provides separate stop and reload buttons on the browser in the latest version of firefox.

I was set up, in myuserchrome.css, to hide my pinned tabs on the tab bar, allowing them to still be available in the "List all tabs" menu, see first image

.tabbrowser-tab[pinned="true"] { display: none !important;}

All of a sudden, it reverted back

That first image, with the hidden tabs, is actually from Librewolf, with has the identical setting.

When I try to connect to the Etsy website I get the following message "429 Too Many Requests". I have a VPN and I have to turn it off to be able to connect. I contacted Etsy and they said it was a browser issue. Besides turning the VPN off when I want to connect is there a fix?

When copying text from a website in one Firefox window, and pasting in a separate Fire Fox window, formatting issues occur

• Running on Windows 10
• Firefox, windows/tabs not in container
• Pasting text from Coursera to Notion.so fails to start text on current line and properly format.
• Works on Microsoft Edge with no issue, so problem is isolated to Firefox

Attaching images for clarification and comparison. (sorry for quality, quick MS.paint job)

• after further testing, it appears that copying from Coursera in Firefox to Microsoft Edge also has the same formatting issue, so it seems to be a compatibility situation between Firefox copying from Coursera specifically, and not an issue with pasting to Notion.so

• appreciate the fact that there are multiple third party factors at play, but the issue is killing my productivity so any help is appreciated!

Speed test on a freshly booted machine is 100/100Mbps ... very often after viewing a youtube video in Firefox, this Speed test can slow down to below 20Mbps which results in a poor streaming experience ... I have a 150/150 fiber connection and the modem speed test doesn't change ... nothing to do with anything downstream ... not running anything else except FF ... always running with the latest up to date version(s) ... things of note: the process count goes up when this occurs ... even if FF is restarted it doesn't resolve this issue ... only a reboot resolves the issue ... when rebooting there is always some UNKNOWN process that needs to be manually terminated before the reboot process runs.

I suspect one of the multilayered (FF appears to open multiple sessions with streaming) processes may be getting widowed and left running and not releasing resources which causes less and less bw to be available ... this appears to occur mostly if I either Fast Forward or try to click forward or backward on a stream timeline suggesting to me that the current timeline may not be closing properly ... process manager doesn't reveal any processes linked to firefox but there are numerous svchost processes which I expect may be involved

Are there other ways/tools to narrow down this issue so the Mozilla team might be able to fix this ... I use FF exclusively but this has become more and more of an annoyance.

My i7 2TB 2.6GHz 8GB laptop is unable to move beyond W7 64b pro but I have had the same experience on a W10 64b Pro machine so very skeptical that this is an OS related issue.

Ultimately if FF kept track of the PIDs it opens it should be able to force them to close if they refuse to close on their own. Kill Process tree ... or ... perhaps provide a log that is user accessible identifying opened PIDs so that a user could manually kill widow processes without having to reboot.

For some time now I have been having trouble with viewing you tube video's. At times the video freezes or just sort of locks up. But, I don't have the same problem with other browsers, Chrome, Brave. So, it just seems with Firefox this issue pertains. Can some one please help so I don't experience the Firefox you tube problems. Thank you.

When I am streaming TV shows or movies online using Firefox the timer in bottom left corner is is not going up by one. It seems that since the net framework updates in the past 3 days have updated in Firefox which is now causing my computer to act like a virus. The show will glitch and repeat 2 to 5 seconds worth of time. Seems you all need to check your crap with Microsoft to update your Firefox.

I have used Firefox for years and also use Kaspersky as my security along with Kaspersky's password manager. Recently, after a Firefox upgrade, while using Firefox to access websites using passwords it will not auto fill from Kaspersky. I have the extension installed. Kaspersky works on all other browsers.

I have always been able to login to walmart.com, but the last few days the "verification screen" does not respond and does not let me in. I can still log in on two other browsers, but I prefer firefox. Any help out there?

upgraded to v118 9'30 Bookmarks lost and not able to access old profile, or restore using "Manage Bookmarks"

See attached: Only see one real profile (current, new) in App Support > Firefox > Profiles. The second profile that exists has virtually nothing in it compared to the new one created upon upgrade. Only three tiny files key4,cert9,pkcs11. Nothing else to restore from.

Bookmark manager >> restore >> despite seeing 10 dates to chose form , error messages every time, "unable to process the backup file." Now what?

I do see a "places.sqlite" file which seems to show "last modified" date of prior to my unfortunate update. But when I try to have Firefox open it, nothing happens. Just new browser windows every time.

THX in advance.

Due to a Windows 11 system restore, I had to reinstall Firefox. After signing in I found that all bookmarks, extensions and passwords have gone and the original 2020 profile they were attached to seems to be missing as well. I initially installed the Firefox app from the windows store and thought that might have been the problem, so uninstalled it and reinstalled from the mozilla website. That didn't heelp so I went through all the help articles I could find and I still can't figure out how to restore anything.
