When VPN is on, an error message comes up on Firefox saying "Server can't be found." Not much good using VPN software if it doesn't let you go to any sites. YouTube, the Washington Post, even Googling the question about this beta all comes up with an error message when the product is turned on. I'm currently on a Macbook Pro with the latest system software: Tahoe

Auto updated to firefox 150 yesterday. What's new screen announced the rollout of the free in browser vpn had reached us (in Canada). Clicked the link to set up, went to screen to follow instructions. There's no vpn icon in the firefox menu bar, no matter what I do. (And I have done everything obvious.) Was the VPN not in the actual update I received or is this some bug/glitch? Thanks.

helloooo

i am experiencing an issue with firefox where backup (Firefox Backup) is not working since version 148.0

problem: - when I try to create a backup, i get the error: “Hmm, there was a problem with the backup. Please try again in a few minutes.”

what I have already tried: - enabled and disabled backup password - changed the backup folder/location - cleared browser cache - tested across multiple updates (issue persists)

- backup is enabled, but I cannot create one - the error occurs every time - restarting the browser and system did not help

Hi this can anyone shed anylight on this please? I was using Facebook earlier today with no problem then now it won't run nor open yet it runs fine in Google Chrome. I've cleared out the Cookies ect and re-tried but its not pitching anything.

Many thanks Rob

In the past, I was able to freehand highlight PDFs that did not recognize the Text. I was using this function this week; maybe the newest Firefox update is at fault. Without this, half of my documents are not really usable in Firefox. Everything else works. If it recognizes the text, I have no problems; the pencil tool also works just fine.

The threads.com website looks very strange. In all other browsers it displays fine, but Firefox shows enormous size icons and barely visible text, with no formatting. Please see attached screenshots. Tried to clear cache, cookies, etc. - nothing worked. Please help!

Hello, I'm wondering if someone help me troubleshoot why the normal or recommended password files recovery isn't working in my case, because it isn't. I've spent 2-3 hrs this evening trying to follow the normal/recommended protocol for recovering previous passwords but it's just leading me in circles, sans passwords being recovered. What usually happens is every couple years either my bookmarks file gets completely lost or - this is new - in this case my saved passwords are gone (possibly corrupted, I'm not sure). I think something might've been corrupted or reconfigured (I hope not "lost" entirely), attempting to install and use the Beta VPN. Ultimately it was just too difficult to get it to work simultaneously around Norton360, which I decided was probably better to just stick with for now. Out of curiosity, I was attempting to get the Firefox Beta VPN installed last night (and operational) and I think that may have been when the previous data was lost or reset somehow. I tried following the basic procedure to reboot FF from previous folder backup (to desktop, "Old Firefox Data"), but that merely reproduces the same "empty" passwords page when I try to open up my saved passwords. Neither of the 2 previous App Data locations seem to help rebooting from ("default" or "default release"), and I'm hoping against hope, at this point, that one of those old JSON files has all my passwords still in it, uncorrupted, but there are so many, I have no idea how to find my way to the correct one. In any case, my FF saved passwords were still fully available and working as of only a few days ago, probably this last Sunday evening, today is Wednesday of the following week. My previous saved Bookmarks are apparently still intact, and auto-loading as normal, regardless of which of the previous user profiles I'm rebooting FF with. If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it.

After I updated to the Version 150.0, everytime I want to check something on the mac menu bar, the whole page gets pushed down. Only the toolbar used to drop before the update. Thanks for any help in advance.

The newest update of Firefox makes my Windows Settings window pop up, and demands that I allow Firefox to access my location and or device.

This is unacceptable. That setting is greyed out on Win 10 machines....FIX FIREFOX. I am not buying a new computer just to use Win 11, which is nothing but spyware.

A new Facebook link can open Firefox and work, but subsequent Facebook links result in a failure. The error message is "This content isn't available right now When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted."

The Facebook links work with other browsers.

Restarting Firefox begins the cycle again. This has become a problem just in the last month or so.
