My dns doesn't resolve on Firefox and gives error Address not found. Originally I tried it on nightly and thought it's an Android issue but it doesn't work on desktop too. However,it still resolves on chrome.

I've set network.trr.mode to 3 and changed network.trr.uri accordingly.

Auto fill for credit cards has not worked for several months now. The option is checked in the privacy and security tab. When try to pay a list of my cards comes up but when I select one if doesn't auto fill. How can I fix that?

This video file cannot be played.(Error Code: 102630). - This is the error i get when i try to play this movie .

Context : - I upgraded to the latest version of firefox and i also connected my dns to nextdns recently. - I use arch linux and firefox on linux. - Previously all the videos on the site were playing nicely but now it has started showing this error. - I have tried many solutions such as :- 1. Clearing cookies, cache,etc and refreshing firefox . 2. Installing media codecs onto my pc using console. 3. Deactivating the dns and disabling hardware acceleration. 4. Restarting my pc but nothing works.

I was wondering if someone has a solution to this.

I have 6 websites that I currently cannot sign into using Firefox. Support tells me to use those two crap browsers Chrome and Edge. I end up using Edge because it is embedded in my computer and I cannot delete. I will not install Chrome and have put on Avast Secure Browser and CClean browser. Both are just Chrome with a new gooey. My Father is also having the same trouble. Most of the sites are for Utilities and rewards programs. Avast is also blocked. Are you aware and working on getting this fixed?

Many of Linux Distributions take firefox binaries from https://packages.mozilla.org/apt/ as given in the Mozilla Knowlege Base Article Install Firefox on Linux. In this article there is a option to Install Firefox .deb package for Debian-based distributions.

However the binaries and libraries that are hosted in Firefox repositories are not compiled with the PIE/PIC flag. That prevents Firefox browser from using ASLR capabilities and to a large degree prevent Buffer overflows attacks. Please refer to the output given below for more details.

$ file -e elf /opt/firefox/firefox /opt/firefox/firefox: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV) $ $ readelf -h /opt/firefox/firefox ELF Header:

 Magic:   7f 45 4c 46 02 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

 Version:                           0x1

The output of the first command is ELF 64-bit LSB executable, which indicates that it is not a PIE executable. If it had been a PIE executable then it would have been ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable. Similarly the output of the second command has a Key, Type, whose value is EXEC (Executable file). However for a PIE binary the value would be DYN (Position-Independent Executable file).

Can Mozilla please compile the binaries and shared libraries with the PIE/PIC flag and then host them in its repositories? Many of Linux Distros do not have the bandwidth to take the source and compile binaries for different architects and are dependent on Mozilla to provide the same. Doing so would be appreciated and would help in enhancing safety of Linux users who use Firefox as their primary browser.

PIE = Position Independent Executable PIC = Position Independent Code ASLR = Address Space Layout Randomisation. PIC and PIE are used interchangeably and imply the same thing.

In chrome, typing "wow" in the adress-bar automatically suggests wowhead.com/cata (yes.. I'm a wow gamer, sue me) and goes to that page as soon as I hit enter.. firefox doesn't/can't. Same goes for all other "most visited" pages to various sites.

Another example (still using the wowhead site as an example) I start typing "assa" and chrome immediatedly suggest "https://www.wowhead.com/cata/guide/classes/rogue/assassination/dps-bis-gear-pve" and will go to that page as soon as I hit enter, again, firefox can't/won't. Sure.. I can hit "tab", but that's an added key-press I really don't feel is nesseceary.

Is there a way to "fix" this?

Greetings,

After having been "On th' Net", for approx. 6 hours earlier today, with No Issues,......About an hour ago, (And No,.... I didn't recieve a Firefox Update today, to the best of my knowledge, although today has been very chaotic & stressful),....I tried to open a PDF, of which I view on the Firefox Browser, & I got a "Couldn't load XPCOM."

I then "Right Clicked" the Firefox icon & tried to open Firefox as an Administrator, & I got the same message.

I then "Right Clicked" the Firefox icon, & sought the "Refresh Button", But there is none.

The "Installed Browser" for Windows 10, is how I've managed to get to this Forum, of which I do not trust.

My Email is via YAHOO/Frontier, & since I, for the moment, cannot access My email, of which, I'm thinking that to see any replies to this situation that I'm in, that I will have to use YAHOO, so as to access Frontier.

I've seen where situations like this have been occurring, & the most recent that I saw is this:

cor-el Moderator Top 10 Contributor 1/12/23, 1:08 AM more options An error message about XPCOM missing or about platform version usually happens because of a failed Firefox update that left you with a mixture of old and updated files in the Firefox program folder. This can happen in case security software was keeping a handle of some of the files in the Firefox program folder preventing Firefox from replacing all the files. You need to do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder to ensure that all files are replaced. You may have to disable security software temporarily in case the problem persists.

You can find the full installer of the current Firefox release (108.0.2) in all languages and all operating systems here:

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/108.0.2/releasenotes/

Will I be able to save All of My Favorites? I have several years of Favorites there & many of them are critically needed. I realize that the Add Ons/Themes/Settings will have to be re-installed/adjusted, but I'm good with that.

Again,... Keeping My Favorites is critical, & "If" they would be deleted, then is there any Possibility of Tech/Engineering accessing My Firefox Folder & saving them?

Regards

Hi there-

On my current Dell laptop (Windows 11) I have had a recurring issue with Firefox wherein any time two sounds play at the same time (say, a Youtube video is playing in the background and I have a sound play in a browser game) it makes one of the audio channels cut out for about a second. This issue only happens with Firefox, and I previously fixed this by changing the bitrate in my audio output settings. However, after an update, this issue has returned, and the bitrate settings I was using that were able to fix this issue now doesn't allow me to play audio on Firefox at all. So now I have no way to avoid the strange bug that causes audio to cut out.

I would love some advice- is this on Firefox's end, or my computer's? Is there a driver I could install or something to avoid this bug? What causes it?

Cheers, Noa

I noticed after a forced Microsoft Windows 10 update, AND whilst using CC Cleaner to clean out the cache, I was no longer prompted to close Firefox. I never opened Microsoft Edge and was not asked to close it to complete the CC Cleaner process. I don't want Mircosoft Edge and I especially don't like the feeling that Firefox must use Edge to operate. What can I do to clear this up.

After taking the latest update to Mac OS 15.0 - Sequoia I am not able to pull up any resources on my home network. I'm not sure if it was just added in this latest version, but there appears to be a privacy setting under Settings > Privacy and Security > Local Network that is likely the culprit I've discovered after testing another browser (MS Edge) that was having the same issue. The only issue for me is Firefox doesn't show as an app on that list for me to enable the setting so I can work with my local resources. Hoping someone can help.

I get PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR when trying to load certain websites. I don't use any proxy or VPN, I tried disabling DoH. Also sometimes i get 403 forbidden cloudflare.

Right now there is an annoying hybrid Reopen Closed Window or Tab feature on the Ctrl+Shift+T hotkey. But Reopen Closed Window already had the Ctrl+Shift+N hotkey, even prior to this change. I can't find anywhere to change this behavior.

Hi!

I've been a Firefox user ever since I've had an internet connection (probably around 2008). Whenever I would do a clean Windows installation every 1 or 2 years, I remember I would have my passwords, history, and extensions synced. Today I performed a clean reinstall again after maybe 2 years and I don't have any of my old history, passwords, extensions.

I'm a bit desperate, I have really important stuff saved over the years. I use Tree Style Tabs and I've customized my browser client to fit my needs and it was perfect, but I seem to have lost everything and I don't know what happened. It didn't even cross my mind something like this would happen.

Is there anything I can do? I have old emails from 2018 and 2021 from Firefox Accounts which show I used the same email.

Today when I tried to log-in into Firefox Accounts from inside the browser (button at the top right corner) it seemed that none of my passwords worked, so I clicked the "Forgot email" password and set-up a better one, but once logged in there was no sync with the old data I had. Then I thought maybe I had the wrong account so I logged in with my Google/Gmail account but there was nothing there as well.

Is there something I can do? I really need my old history, passwords, extensions, etc. Especially now as I'm graduating from University and I have important events coming up.

And no, I don't have any local profiles any more since I did a full, clean reinstall on my primary SSD. But I remember I've never used local profiles, everything would sync up again once I logged in. Maybe forgetting and resetting my password logged out my previous session and I lost it forever?

I hope you can help me sort this out.

Thank you for your time!

When previewing an image that was uploaded to a Google Calendar Event, I get an error "Couldn't preview file. There was a problem displaying this image." I've spoken to Google support and they suggested I reach out as when I try in Chrome, it works. Firefox is my preferred browser so I would love if I didn't have to switch to Chrome.

Troubleshooting Done: - Verified Firefox is up to date (130.0 64 bit) - Cleared cache and cookies, closed browser, reopened - Tried in 'Troubleshoot Mode' - Ad Blocker turned off - Uploaded test .png and .jpeg to see if it was a file extension issue - Uploaded smaller versions of images to see if it was a size issue - No issues when doing same steps in Chrome browser

I have used Firefox for years to use application Availity. All of a sudden cannot open on FireFox but open it in Chrome. I sign in to Availity and 'acts' like going to load but goes immediatley to the sign out screen. Reached out to Availity said to clear Cache...I did restarted and same issue.

Hi,

I've been wanting to switch from Chrome to Firefox for the longest time, but I can't do it since surround audio doesn't seem to be supported natively in Firefox. I'm using a Logitech G733, with "Surround Audio" activated in GHub, and on Chromium based browsers, it works, I hear it when watching Youtube videos, Twitch streams..., but on Firefox, it defaults to stereo audio. I haven't been able to find any settings related to audio in Firefox, nor in the concerned websites. Is it a known issue ?
