Firefox Community Forum

I'm on FF 154.0. The power went out here and when it came back and I booted the desktop computer something had changed in FF.

I used to see the active tab as green in the tab bar and yellow for the rest, but now they're all gray until I mouse over the bar and only then does it turn green/yellow.

I struggled with this for many hours trying many //active tab color// solutions I found in searches but nothing got it back to my old behavior.

So as a last resort I tried adding the Firefox Color extension, but when I click Add to Firefox it just turns into a throbber that never changes so it doesn't install. I'm stuck!

Frustrated!!

Seemingly any program that has links that when clicked there, redirect and open a new tab in your browser just, do nothing now that I've swapped to Firefox? No indication or response on Firefox, it just acts like nothing happened. I don't even know why something this simple would break, let alone what WOULD break it.

I installed a Mozilla/FF GMail Notifier App. I tho't that I removed it as I no longer needed it. It still Notifies me; annoying. But it's not in my Extension List to Remove again if need be??? How can a hidden/invisible App be still operating, that is supposed to be Removed?

Since Mozilla/FF has no option to Delete a Question, I found the answer to the above posted. MY error: It was a Google Linked App, not the one I Removed which did indeed become Removed. Sigh!

There is seriously something wrong with the way Firefox operates. There is nothing wrong with the following site so why am I seeing this message?

Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with news.sky.com. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

news.sky.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site. Advanced What makes the site look dangerous?

The site is set up to allow only secure connections, but there’s a problem with the site’s certificate. It’s possible that a bad actor is trying to impersonate the site. Sites use certificates issued by a certificate authority to prove they’re really who they say they are. Firefox doesn’t trust this site because its certificate isn’t valid for news.sky.com. The certificate is only valid for: . What can you do about it?

Someone claiming to be with Microsoft froze my computer until I answered whether I wanted them to know where I am at. I need protection from hackers like this. I want to be able to do a full scan on my computer.

As stated above, after the Firefox upgrade to version 155.0.1 I now only have 1 row of home page shortcuts and before the upgrade had 4 full rows of shortcuts. The setting are still set to 4 rows, but only an auto generated 1 row. I would like to restore my rows without having to add them back one by one.

Sites struggle to load a lot of the time now, sites like youtube don't load until I clear my browsing history and cookies, some sites don't load at all, some shops don't load any image previews. I've tried on other browsers when these things happen and they don't happen there.

115.40.0esr on Mac OS High Sierra v. 10.13.6

When attempting to enter log in information automatically, the expected notification appears and is confirmed, but the "Logins & Passwords" repository remains empty.

When attempting to enter log in info manually, from the "Logins & Passwords"page, the error message "an error occurred while trying to save this password" pops up after filling the fields under "Create New Login" and hitting the "Save" button.

I know I'm working on borrowed time with this setup, but I'd like to squeeze as much life as I can out of this old Mac, and having a functioning password manager is high priority.

Accidentally told Fire-Fox to allow access to a website without two step authentication. I want to restore the ability to the website so the website requires a phone call to sign in.

Thanks in advance.

I have logged into TinyURL.com MANY times using Firefox. Now, I get a Cloudflare Validation Error when trying to do so (see attached screenshot/snip).

This was done in Troubleshooting mode, but is the same in standard mode, though I have no extensions enabled. I've tried turning Protection Tracking off; no luck. - We use ZoneAlarm, but the Web Secure functions are all disabled. - I have the same issue on 2 PC's, one Windows 10 and the other Windows 11, 64-bit. - I'm on FF release 150.0.2 - 64-bit, and both Windows installs are fully updated and kept that way. - I've reached out to TinyURL in hopes of resolving the issue. They suggested many of the above steps but not resolved this issue. - HOWEVER, I've found that login via Google Chrome IS seamless - no issues.

What is it with Firefox that it's having issues with the Cloudflare "Human" check? I've checked the Cloudflare site; all conditions are good, and this very setup passed the "Turnstile" check.

FF is my #1 preferred browser, so please look into this. I see that others have posted similar issues over multiple years here (but a search of support articles didn't find one . . .)

Thanks,

Firefox security features warning on Linux doesn't explain what kind of file to add to apparmor.d/firefox-local. Is it a .txt file, or something else?

Whenever I hold down the mouse button or space bar to speed up a video by 2x, it seems to let out a small crackle / pop, it wouldn't be as annoying if it only happened one time but it happens practically anytime I do it, sometimes it's when I first press it down, and sometimes it's when I let go.

I've been using Firefox for years and never had this issue until like 3-4 days ago I'd say, and it's a small thing but it adds up constantly and makes the experience fairly annoying, I tested the audio on google chrome extensively and it doesn't seem to happen there so I have to assume it's a Firefox issue.

Would love to see if there's a way to fix this.
