Firefox Community Forum

It bypasses my DNS when I turn it on and I don't want that to happen. I want this PC to never be able to turn it on again. That probably isn't possible, but I gotta ask. In the meantime: how do I use LinuxMint's firewall to ban the usage of the VPN?

Also: can the firefox devs make that an option? To have the option to never turn it on again?

Hello. I am back again with the same issue that I presented on the forum post three months ago. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1594903?utm_campaign=questions-reply The difference is now it is happening on Firefox v157.0.1;everything else is identical. Qubes os R4.3.2 with Firefox 157.0.1 in a Fedora 44 xfce VM. To recap I open one window for Proxmox Datacenter Manager and as soon as I click to sign in Firefox completely disappears. I can open this in Chromium browser and Firefox ESR v.140.17.0 esr perfectly fine. Please consult the original post for all I did to troubleshoot this. I am working with the esr version now but would like to help put this issue to bed. Community members stepped up last time to help me so I am here to do my small part for others. Ask for any info you need and I'll reply ASAP. Thanks in advance. SDS

Currently Running Firefox 158.0(64-bit)mint-001 - 1.0 Linux Mint 21.3. This actually started with 157. This peculiar to the System Package version ONLY. The versions on Flatpak Mint, Windoze, iOS or Android have the problem.

In brief, If the text in a Youtube post exceeds approximately 150 characters, excluding the dots(periods), when the preview is clicked on then the post itself only shows that text and the expected "Read more" is missing. What is visible are three dots in what appears to be a far smaller font thus making me believe the link to the script that does the reveal has been suppressed.

Unless there is something hidden in about:config to cure this there doesn't seem to be any way around this.

Ideas would be welcome

As soon as I signed into the browser to sync my account, this issue began. I have deleted profile locks, started new profiles, opened in troubleshooting mode, fully reinstalled, and the issue continued (even before signing back in). I am out of troubleshooting steps and would like to avoid blowing my VM away if at all possible. Someone please help!

Tested on OpenSuse Tumbleweed both native & flatpak but also on latest live ubuntu image . After some seconds , with healthy buffer , video pauses/starts with new buffer , until it drops to 480p ignoring the manually 4K setting . When setting manually again to 4K , YT throws error . Blocking av1 and switching to vp9 fixes it . Hardware capable of running av1 (amd , rdna3 , rx 7800t) , local videos or using other chromium based browsers work fine .

如题，请问如何跨设备同步标签页群组？ 现在似乎只能跨设备同步已经打开的标签页，但是无法同步标签页群组。

As the title suggests, may I ask how to synchronize TAB groups across devices? It seems that now only open tabs can be synchronized across devices, but TAB groups cannot be synchronized.

On linux, in the past, firefox kept all its data in home/{user}/.mozilla. This was changed at some pont to spread the data out into /home/{user}/.config, /home/{user}/.cache and maybe another place but when the change was made existing data was not moved and remained in /home/{user}/.mozilla. For my purposes I prefer to see the data in the old location. I make heave use of profiles and I store them on an encrypted partition and I have firejail setup to give access to the old location. Whart does Firefox look at to determine whether to look in the new locations or the old location? What is the new location of profile.ini?

This is a new install of debian 13 trixie. I have a subscription to mozillavpn. It was working on a previous install of debian. I use synaptic to install flatpak. I use flatpak to install warehouse. I use warehouse to install mozillavpn. Once installed I highlight the package mozilla vpn in warehouse then click open. A mozillavpn icon appears in the taskbar. Also a window that is shaped like a cell phone open up. This window has a button to "sign up", also it has a link to "already a subscriber?". I click the "already a subscriber" link. It changes to a page that says "waiting for sign in and subscription confirmation..." with a rotating circle and a button to cancel. It also opens a separate browser to a start page. I wait awhile but nothing happens. I change the browser page to my mozilla account page at "https://accounts.firefox.com/settings" Nothing happens. There's a button on the account page to "connect a device" but I don't know what to do with it. Under the heading "Everything you are using and signed into." it has 2 entries: "Firefox 153, Linux" and "Mozilla Support". Both entries have a "sign out" button. Back at the mozilla vpn cell phone shaped window the spinner just spins and nothing else. So I'm stuck. I click cancel and it goes back to the "sign up' / "already a subscriber?" page. From the icon in the taskbar I click quit and both the window and the icon go away. Everything seems to working but I am not registering as a subscriber. I've tried this several times over the course of 2 days. It's always the same.

Good evening,

I am using Linux Mint (version 22.3 Cinnamon) as my OS and Firefox (version 157.0.1) as my browser—both 64-bit.

For some time now, I haven't been able to use the map on www.naviki.org; when the page loads, the map appears briefly but then immediately becomes invisible.

I suspect this has something to do with my Firefox settings. I’ve tried everything I can think of—enabling third-party cookies (for Google and OpenStreetMap maps), toggling tracking protection on and off, removing all browser extensions and add-ons, and verifying that WebGL and WebGL2 are both set to "true"—but nothing works. The maps remain invisible.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? I'm at a loss...

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Phil

Dear Sir/Madam,

Sync feature is not working at all, I signed my account on different PCs to have my history synced across all devices but it is like for nothing, every time I log my account into a new PC to have the search history of the last device nothing gets synced, I wait like for an eternity and nothing there, restart and nothing works.

Hi there,

Since i have changed my primary email (the last primary became the secondary) i can't no more sign-in to "firefox relay" or "paid subscription" from my account. So I'm correctly logged in https://accounts.firefox.com/ but from there i can't connect to others services. I have this message :

Menu: Third-Party Login Failure An error occurred while attempting to login via your third-party account.

It a little bi annoying when you have paid subscription...

Thank you for your help.

P.

Mozilla firefox debian package 157.0.1

I am on Pop OS. I ran some update and restarted and all of my tabs are gone and Firefox is not showing any history of them. I was under the impression that if I had an account it would keep track of the history but there is nothing there. How does this happen and why? Also how can I get my tabs back I am one of those people that has like 50 tabs open So I can run several things at once I never had this issue with goggle but for some reason it happens often with Firefox what gives?

Does FF have a maximum number of windows / tabs that can be open at one time? I use 12 workspaces each with multiple windows / tabs in them, roughly guessing ~100 windows and ~8-50 tabs per window

FF randomly hangs / crashes 1-3 times a day for me and has been for some time (over multiple revisions of FF; currently 157.0.1) requiring restarting FF

System: Large workstation, 128G memory, i9-7920x (12c / 24T) Linux, OpenSuSE Leap 15.6 FF source from FF repos, not OpenSuSE

Any settings I need to change to prevent the crashes?

Installed new Linux OS, forgot password to profile when opening firefox, created new password, logged into my Profile which has the correct user picture, but all my passwords and bookmarks are gone. ( I want to cry man..)
