Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

currently FF 114.0 started about mid Feb 2023 i started to get right click lockup freeze FF updated a few times problem still there only way was to close and reopen win7 64 Pro 8gb ram 4gb GC i7cpu my win 10 is fine same FF version happens every so often but gen every day

inbox displays the subject and date only of new emails ie NO message is shown nor any activity eg delete, forward etc. Double click on email and it is displayed in a new window

I get these updates just to stop the annoying side popup/down. But what I get usually is no use to me and my browsing. What it seems to me is most update's "Fixes" are just for the dudes that keep playing with/building on the browser and screwing it up.

Plus I don't get to see WHAT the new update fixes are UNTIL I've downloaded the update.
 I sure wish that you...someone.... puts the option BACK IN where a person can stop/ignore updates....COMPLETELY! 
With the last 2 or 3 updates it seems... for my use of the browser... makes it a hell of a lot SLOWER. And a ton more pauses and crashes.  
Firefox was a great browser 10 years ago but with all these geeks playing with it and trying to make it ONLY to suit his/her needs is making it a pain.
 Thanks for anyone reading this.

I am having a problem with the Audio and Closed Caption The CC leads the Audio by 40 seconds to a minute. Very frustrating... I seem to only have this problem with HULU and Prime Video. All other streaming platforms work great. I am using Windows 7 64 bit

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,

Bill

Hello:

I have 2 profiles in use. 1 for personal use with their respective bookmarks, passwords, and extensions, and I have no trouble syncing with this one. However; profile 2 that is for work use that has its respective bookmarks, passwords and extensions, has become a nightmare.

It happens that I have both profiles on the same computer and when trying to create an account in Firefox, the system asks me to enter the email registered in profile 1, with the warning that bookmarks, passwords and extensions will be mixed.

I mention that I have migrated from Google Chorme to Firefox for speed reasons and because I use windows 7 (I don't like later versions) Now well; in Google Chrome you could create as many sessions as were registered but in Firefox you can't.

Oh! I have been working fine with Firefox but suddenly an error occurs (it has happened to me 2 times in the last 2 months) in which the program closes and all the data of my profiles stored on the pc DISAPPEARS or is deleted (including cache), when I want to open them again:

firefox.exe -P

Then I have to give myself the task of synchronizing profile 1, but profile 2 I have to be importing from my previous Google account or importing a backup Bookmark.

The option to copy and paste the data from Firefox to replace it in the path (supposedly brings with it the data of everything):

C:\ProgramData\Mozilla-1de4eec8-1241-4177-a864-e594e8d1fb38\updates\308046B0AF4A39CB

with Firefox turned off it has not worked for me. Since when opening I see 2 profiles called Default "X" and Default "Z" without data.

This is a headache that if it happens to me, it happens to millions who have 2 or more profiles.

Why can't I sync a second profile? Why do you insist that there can only be one sync per device? Is there a solution for this?

Note: I have read all the tutorials out there and the situation remains the same. Synchronization with 2 or more profiles is never described.

Thank you very much to whoever asked this question!

This has happened twice. All my passwords were removed from the Fire Fox PW Manager. The first time, Google ended up with apparently this PW list created w/FF. I never knowingly gave permission for this. Second time my Primary PW will no longer work and I had entered the PW correctly.

Tried to set up a new PW file on FF, which I had since upgraded, but it will not accept my "last PW".

Please see changed email.

Win7 x64P , FF110.0 (64-bit) I am trying to change the image for a 'new tab' shortcut so I can recognize it visually , the only option I see is to select a URL for the image. (local image would be handy)

I uploaded image to drive.google & shared, inserted the link & save. But is shows just blank.
It shared it properly & tested when logout.

but its a share link & not really an image link.

Hi,

I am using Windows7 64bit. I have never had this problem before. Suddenly I am having this issue that whenever I paste some text in the address bar, or use Paste and go option, for example I am looking up a difficult word in a web page, I would copy it and Paste it or Paste and go in the address bar, Firefox crashes. It crashes even in troubleshooting mode. I have refreshed Firefox twice but no luck. Uninstalling and reinstalling helped for some time, but the problem is back. I have latest version of Firefox.

I will be moving all of my data to a new laptop and want to know if I need to have both my personal Firefox profile and the "default-release" profile backed up. The "default" one is over 3GB and has over 20k files in it, and my personal one is only 113 MB with 1300 files — and my thumb drive needs all the extra space it can get. (Why would the "default-release" profile be so much larger than my personal one?)

The old laptop runs on Windows and the new one will have the Linux OS. Will that make a difference in using a backed up Firefox profile? I mean, will the data still work in the new OS?

Im using Firefox desktop version 113 with win 7 Browser will not save logins or passwords either saved by me manually or by importing from chrome.

Below you will see the screen from my settings after saving. Strangely, I do get the prompt to save them. See other image below.

I do not want to use sync. I only want firefox to store this locally as the earlier versions did without any issues.

Thanks

Dzień dobry, nie mogę uruchomić uwierzytelniania dwuetapowego, za pomocą aplikacji Google Authenticator. po zeskanowaniu kodu QR i utworzeniu konta Firefox w aplikacji podane kody są odrzucane przez system. Miałem już aktywne logowanie 2-etapowe, ale usunąłem je, ponieważ chciałem zresetować aplikację i tę funkcję. Tym razem funkcja nie działa. Proszę o pomoc. Maciej Jeziorski

It seems like no matter what I do, I can't get Firefox to download files from Google Drive. It loads for a moment, then it says "The page isn’t redirecting properly". I have confirmed that it's only Firefox because I can download files from Google Drive with Google Chrome. I have disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection, selecting the Standard Enhanced Tracking Protection Setting, and even refreshing Firefox. Though, I noticed that it only works on incognito mode for whatever reason.
