Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

Hi,

I've been using Firefox on my laptop and my phones for years. I have a concern about my saved passwords in Firefox. If I need to lookup a password, I go settings, saved logins, put in my pin# and search and copy my password. Many times; however, when I get to the enter password on a website, Firefox comes up above my keypad and will let me just hit the down button to pick my credentials and automatically fills in my credentials without asking for my pin! It will also come up above keyboard to unlock Firefox? Please help me to clear this mess up. I want to have to put in a pin for my passwords. Anyone could get into my websites if my phone were taken, etc. I know I un-installed the app for passwords from Firefox when it was no longer available, sorry can't remember name of this app. I hope there is an easy way to make this happen. The only way I want to look for a password is with a pin #. It's a pain but I am OK with this.

M2 MacBook Air running macOS Ventura. When I open a website which wants access to my camera I am asked if I want to allow this. I say "Allow", and the light next to the builtin webcam turns green, but I see nothing in the camera sub-window on the webpage which was granted access. No error message, just no camera video is shown by the webpage. In the menu bar is a camera icon which I can click on and confirms I have "Allowed" camera access. Setting / Privacy / Permissions / Autoplay is set to Block Audio. I have verified the camera works with other apps (Photo Booth). How can I diagnose this?

Extension has permission "Access your data for sites in the abc.de domain".

The documentation says that such extension can read "data you enter into those web pages, such as usernames and passwords"

Can extension send such data away (for example to its developer)? What kind of permission is needed for that? Can you quote exact name of such permission/s from linked article so i can lookup that?

Hello, i need help. If I create shortcut, and start firefox in another profile, like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -class FF2 --profile "C:\Users\mire\Desktop\TEST\Apps\Instagram" --no-remote instagram.com

And if i set in "user.js" --> user_pref("taskbar.grouping.useprofile", true);.

For some reason after firefox starts, or after second start, firefox icon on the taskbar turns into a private browsing icon!

I tried everything to prevent this, I tried to add:

user_pref("browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.privacySegmentation.windowSeparation.enabled", false);

Nothing works...

I checked million times that im not in private browsing, and i'm not.

Then, after some tests I found that if I remove the flag: "user_pref("taskbar.grouping.useprofile", true);" from 'user.js' and 'prefs.js', and start profile again, taskbar icon becomes normal firefox icon.

Is this a bug?

And what should i do if i want to have separate grouping for the PROFILE2, and i don't want to have that private browsing icon?

You can see in the picture what was happening...

Hi,

I noticed that the shortlinks/websites on my startpage (the House icon) are placing cookies as soon as I start Firefox. Not all of them and also in a random manor. This does not happen in Private Navigation, which i almost never use.

For me this is rather strange, I do not visit these shortlinks and already being tracked by those cookies. How can this be changed?

My settings are to clear all cookies and history at closure. Subquestion: Do I need to choose Options/Close or does this also work by clicking the X in the right upperhand corner to close Firefox.

Hope someone can shed some light... Lasco

We are attempting to disable DNS over HTTPS by pushing a configuration profile from JAMF Pro. The profile completes successfully and shows it is disabled, but Firefox will still show it is enabled. Has anyone else encountered this? We are using our own DNS Resolvers and need to not have Firefox force theirs. BTW, in order to avoid confusion, this is specific to MAC OS machines only. Thank you!

Jag använder ovpn satt 10 timmar igår med att lösa ett dns läckage men det fungerar inte ovpn säger att det är ni på firefox som kan lösa detta och inte de. Jag vill gärna få hjälp via teamviewer. Mvh Carl Sverige

Am trying to update my email address. When I try to make the secondary the primary, it wants a verification code entered. The field for this code will not let me paste it or enter it manually. Will this glitch be fixed soon?
