Firefox Community Forum

I am going round in circles. The last Firefox update reset my Firefox on my laptop to default settings including losing my master password. I started to reset all my old settings but when I got to the part where I setup the sync with my phone version of Firefox, Mozilla asked me to log in. My password was not recognised so I hit "Forgot password" having set up a new password using one of my 10 digit authentication codes, I was then asked to log in with my new password, I did this & when trying to do the sync, I am being asked for a six digit authentication code! I have no idea where to find this code. Please help.

I can sign in on Safari but cannot sign in with Firefox. "Username and password do not match." They match in Safari.

Yahoo isn't loading at all for me, more specifically guce.yahoo.com. I have managed to get into the login.yahoo.com page and log in but after the log in process it goes to the first page again and gives me the same "The connection has timed out". I just installed the browser and this might make me not use it ngl. I have tried both clearing cookies and troubleshooting mode.

I'm using Firefox 133 (64 bit) and just recently the down arrow on the right hand side is missing. I still have the up arrow. How do i get the down arrow back.

Thx for your help in advance.

Firefox doesn't look or act anything like my firefox did before the most recent update. My Roboform extension/add-in is now not installed/active and I can't figure out a way to enable it. It shows up in the list of extensions as disabled, but there is no button or explanation for why it was disabled - even when I use the instructions on your help section.

Two questions: How do I get my Roboform and other extensions enabled?

How do I turn off auto update with Firefox? These kinds of change without notice are unaccesptable.

Hi.

Every time Firefox updates it signs me out of all my open tabs. Until Firefox can do updates without signing me out of everything I do not want to update. How can I stop updates for Version 132.0.2 (64-bit)?

Thanks.

I am trying to fix Firefox performance issues. I recently changed to Firefox to escape forced ads on chrome and the lost support for the Ublock origin. But I am having difficulty performing tasks and pages That I used to be able to do on Chrome with no difficulty.

When I open multiple tabs at once the tabs freeze up when trying to load and already opened tabs freeze and anything streaming also freeze. It takes tons of time to load multiple tabs and even sometimes single tabs depending on the website. This never happened with Chrome and I understand Firefox is not as refined as Chrome and is far younger than Chrome is but I feel like it shouldn't be this bad. Is there any settings maybe or maybe settings/preferences in the config area area that might help with faster performance and increased multitasking ability in the Firefox browser?

I have tried

1. Updating Firefox - I am running the most up to date version 2. Updating Graphics Drivers- I am running the most up to date drivers(Updated yesterday 11/17/2024 3. Deleting Cache/History/Logs 4. removed or disables unneeded extensions that I don't use every day and only activate when I need them.

None of this has worked to increase performance.

P.S. I would also like to fix the problem where firefox is using too much RAM if possible.

Can anyone help me?

Is there any way to move the download thing to the bottom like it used to be in old Chrome? Just gave up on that PoS after 20+ years, it keeps being updated by windows 10, but I know nothing about Firefox.

    Also, is there a way to set it to auto open zip or rar files when I download them? That would bypass the problem of wanting to move that stupid tiny arrow.

I have tried multiple media players and I have the same issue with all of them

Whilst playing a downloaded video - as soon as I open a new window to perform a search - the video stutters and the playback is slurred for a couple up to several seconds

Started on VLC so I tried PotPlayer instead same issue

Thanks in advance

My Facebook account has been disabled something to do with the Instagram account but I can’t retrieve it.

'Linked In' technical support are telling me that I am unable to see certain pages on their system most likely because my Firefox Browser (which is fully up to date) is using DNS. They said to remove DNS. Is this wise advice and if so how do I do that and what difference will it make to my day to day use of firefox?

You used to have a nice menu bar, with bookmarks easily available. Now it looks like Edge, with bookmarks over on a right hand menu, with multiple clicks needed. I looked for a View option in settings and found nothing, searching on toolbar also comes up empty.

Is there a way to get that old menu bar to show back up?

I have been having this issue for a while now. I will get this message on different websites, and then if I try again later it might work. It seems like it's a random chance of me getting this error. I have tried "about:config" commands as suggested on other posts on this forum and they didn't work. I checked my licenses, proxy settings and still nothing. I got another web browser to see if it's my PC or Firefox, and the other browser worked just fine. I am guessing there is something I need to do within Firefox, but I am not sure what that is.

I’ve noticed that Firefox is draining my Mac’s battery significantly often consuming over 200% of the device’s power. It also prevents my Mac from going to sleep when not in use. Is there a setting I can adjust to improve battery efficiency and ensure that Firefox doesn’t block my device from entering sleep mode? I’d appreciate any guidance to resolve this issue.
