Firefox Community Forum

I had this issue a few months ago but it then seemed to resolve itself. Now it's back.

I use passkey on a few sites like Google, Youtube, Hubspot... every time I attempt to use passkey on such sites Firefox locks up and I can't select anything on the page, a different tab. It just completely locks up and I have to restart it.

I always deselect cookies.

I don't have this issue on Safari so it is the only way I have to deal with this issue.

Firefox has recently started requesting me to sign in after every login to my laptop. I am unaware of any action on my part that may have prompted this. I wish to remain logged in: How do I ensure this?

About once a week Firefox will 'reset' its self. I will open it up and it will have logged me out and ask to go through the setup process (almost like its just reinstalled). Webpages wont open. Only way to fix it is to open troubleshoot mode and follow the refresh option. Cant find any reason its doing this.

I am in college at CU Boulder. In order for me to view my recorded classes my browser needs for me to allow 3rd party cookies. your browser is blocking them and not giving me an option to unblock them. How do i fix this problem?

Bonjour, depuis plusieurs semaines, je reçois une demande d'acceptation des cookies pour chaque site que j'ouvre. La demande se répète tous les jours même si je visite n'importe quel site plusieurs fois dans la journée. Pouvez vous remédiez à cela. C'est la 1ère fois que je suis confronté à cette anomalie depuis que j'utilise FIREFOX. Merci d'avance -- Cordialement H ROBIN

A website I have been using had allowed you to reject any other cookies besides operational cookies. Now they want you to accept all cookies or the accept cookie banner won't be removed from the website. The site no longer gives you any options. I understand that the operational cookies need to remain but is there a way to delete the specific advertising and 3rd party cookies for this site.

Hi,

If i understand correctly, firefox has total cookie protection enabled by default i.e. cookies are not shared among sites. I can see partition key is being set for the cookies which helps in maintaining cookie jars.

I am just curious to know if these cookie jars exist for firefox extensions also? For example, from a specific add-on if a certain cookie is set for demo.com then i dont see any partition key associated with it. Does this violate total cookie protection? And is this a bug or a special feature that firefox extensions can utilize?

I can't sign into Google on Firefox. Every time I try, I get this message:

We've detected a problem with your cookie settings. Enable cookies

If you have cookies enabled but are still having trouble, clear your browser's cache and cookies. Adjust your privacy settings

If clearing your cache and cookies doesn't resolve the problem, try adjusting your browser's privacy settings. If your settings are on high, manually add www.google.com to your list of allowed sites. Learn more

I've followed all the instructions, even deleted and re-installed Firefox, but the same thing keeps happening. How do I fix this?

The bank for our online HOA accounts wants me to allow "third party cookies". How do I allow that on my MacBook Pro?

Also, the videos that are implanted in news articles on msn.com won't load and play. How do I allow them to load so I can view them?

Thank you.

Hi Team,

I'm currently having an issue with the above:

Every time I clear everything (cookies, data, cache etc), close Firefox then immediately open it again additional data appears. This never used to happen before. Why is this? For example, just before sending this message it stated 0 bytes. When closing and opening F. again there were 76 bytes. Earlier today, after the same procedure there were 315 bytes of data! So Firefox is not clearing data as it used to. I use Norton AntiVirus and Nord VPN and have just done a disc clean-up but there is still the same problem when they are turned off. Where is this data coming from if I am not using any programs, the internet, nothing; only opening Firefox? Please advise as I suspect there may be hackers sniffing around my computer. I have changed the Browser Privacy to Strict.

Nord VPN also has a security option like Firefox. Is it okay to keep both on simultaneously or will they conflict? What is the best option out of the two if you recommend using only one?

I look forward to your assistance.

Thanks,

BA
