Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

I have used Firefox since forever, was a Netscape user in the past

But for about 3 months Firefox simply is no good anymore\

It is more and more sites I can not access with Firefox and have to use Edge instead.

Last example, just now

https://www.cibc.com/en/journeys/new-to-canada.html

See screens attached

This is just one example, many other sites simply do not open, or open properly, in Firefox

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

Thank you

"Hello, How are you? I hope everything is going well. I have a website with the domain name https://flatroofingtech.com/, and despite compatibility not being an issue when it comes to working on all browsers, I am having trouble getting the Mega Menu in the Header of my site to function properly on this browser. Could you please assist me with this matter? Thank you in advance for your response, and I wish you a productive day."

When I updated to Ff 118.0.2 on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS today 4 out of 7 windows disappeared. When I upgarded Ubuntu from 21.something four days ago 6 out of 9 windows disappeared. Can I get them back or do I have to stop upgrading?

I had several dozen tabs open, as well as bookmarks saved that were on my account while I was using Windows 11. I didn't even think to export the bookmarks and other information, as I figured sync would handle that. Unfortunately, none of my settings have been saved. Is there a way to fix this? I had many extensions, bookmarks, and tabs I'd like to recover.

Hi, I recently reinstalled windows, before that I wanted to make a backup of my data from firefox, addons, bookmarks, history and cookies. When I looked into google it redirected me to this page https://support.mozilla.org/pl/kb/firefox-backup-danych-przechodzenie-na-nowe-urzadzenie Great! I thought. I was logged in, synchronized and was ready to go. After installing new windows, I downloaded firefox, logged in, and nothing... no button to restore my addons or any data. So I searched far and wide and still didn't find anything. Please tell me how to restore my data it was synced.

My firefox browser freezes completely and stops PC from working. Current remedy is to use another browser having switched off and re-booted PC. Any thoughts as this has started happening frollowing update to version 118

Hi there - I have had a persistent issue with Firefox not playing any audio out of the blue. I have checked my computer settings, refreshed firefox, reinstalled firefox, and still have no sign of what could have caused the issue. I am running windows 10. For reference, this has happened before but got resolved when I re-installed Firefox previously.

Any chance this is a bug that can be patched out? Please advise.

Since the update to version 118.02 FF, the downloads now end up in the folder C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp instead of the 'Downloads' folder as indicated in Settings - General (see attachment)

Hello,

I set a password for opening Firefox (Windows) and every time I opened FF I was prompted to enter my password. This was true in either privacy browsing or normal mode. Today for some reason I hit the cancel button and FF opened up normally to my default settings.

This was surprising to me. And I tried to find specific settings to ensure FF will not open unless you enter a pw.

Could not. So what good is a pw? And of course there is always the - I don't know what I'm doing to configure FF correctly.

This represents a failure in that a password setting is misleading, leading a user to believe that they have secured access to FF. If you can select cancel and FF opens this is a real issue.

On the other hand, if FF password was never designed to protect FF then this should be stated.

I strongly urge that Mozilla FF look at having the ability to create a PW protected, selectable -> unsynced or synced, version of FF that is stored in a protected form.

I am looking for a browser that is PW protected on top of your normal OS login. And that the URLs stored in that browser are encrypted. This offers an additional layer of protection for users who keep financial, health, etc., sensitive URLs that need to be kept private, not shared if so desired.

After upgrading Ubuntu from 18.04 to 22.04, I attempted to import my old profile data into the new version of Firefox (118.0.2). All attempts following the instructions at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recover-user-data-missing-after-fire...] failed.

Following the instructions at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-run-firefox-when-profile-missing...], I deleted the profile.ini file.

Since then, Firefox does not open. I still get the message "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." The only option is to press the OK button at which point, FIrefox closes.

There is no current information in the crash logs and I can't find any error logs.

Hi, why does Firefox always download PDF files, no matter what option you chose (open with Firefox, open with other Adobe, always ask...)? It just does the same thing Chrome does, and I don't like Chrome for that reason too. I would like to see PDF files in Firefox or Adobe for instance, without downloading them. Thanks.

Firefox would not open and gave me an error message Platform Ver 118.2 not compatible... I reinstalled but have lost all my passwords and bookmarks. The PC, windows desktop backup has nothing in it.

This is a recent problem. Before I have opened Firefox, it sometimes opens with MSN as the home page. URL www.msn.com/en-xi?ocid=wispr&pc=u477 Homepage is set to www.startpage.com Computer HPZ2, windows 10. Security Norton; Malware bytes.

I am worried that my PC may have been hacked. Security scans don't show anything.

I don't ever want MSN: is it possible to fix the problem by blocking MSN; if so, how?

Thanks, Dmitri

I can play movies on DVD and Blu Ray discs on my computer just fine. And, if I host an online meeting using Zoom or Free Conference Calls, participants in the meeting can watch the movie. I do this by playing the movie locally with a media player, and sharing my desktop. However, when I try to watch a movie in an online meeting, participants just see a black window. Do you know the reason?

I'm using Windows 10, Firefox 118.0.2.

The update of Sep 28 (118.0.1) on another machine works fine, as does that awful Windows Edge on this machine. I read the notes to 118.0.2 but they offer no hints to me. Could someone check and refix the bug fix? Or something. Thanks. Probably irrelevant but I'm running Windows 11 on a year-old HP laptop.
