Firefox Support Forum

Hail all:

I have my settings set to "absolute" Strict. this option greys out to add exceptions. But it blocks sometimes safe sites as well.

How can I run strict, and still be able to add certain websites, thus overcome the greyed out Add Exception Button?

Thank you.

Doing a flight search on the Easyjet airline website brings up this message.

You don't have permission to access "http://www.easyjet.com/en/buy/flights?" on this server. Reference #18.a2051702.1680270222.a72aa67

How do I give permission to allow the search to go ahead? It's pretty annoying to come out of Firefox and use Safari where this doesn't happen. Thanks

This has happened before. I have not imported any bookmarks into Firefox from other browsers -- it is my default browser and imports all go the other direction (i.e. 'exports'). But I have this folder under the Bookmarks Toolbar called 'Imported from Firefox.' In the first place, I don't really understand why it exists. In the second, I've discovered that suddenly, new bookmarks I create go there instead of to he folders in the main bookmark list, which is incredibly confusing and irritating. I want the thing gone, or AT LEAST for new bookmarks to be posted to the proper locations! There is an incredible amount of duplication between that folder set and the main folder set, and a bunch of really old stuff is being retained. Manually going through that mess would be hours of work. Why is it there, if I don't import bookmarks to Firefox, and how do I get rid of it and point new bookmarks at the proper folder?

Greetings, all:

I have made a feedback few times for this forum here, to have a Stay Signed In option.

Every so many minutes, I get to be signed out, most probably, as a security measure. This then requires me to log in each time, which is not all too bad, but still a bit annoying.

A "Stay Logged In" or "Keep Me Logged In" option is a normal thing on nigh all sites, it would be lovely to have it here as well?

Thoughts?

Kindest regards: Ben

Hello!

So a while back I deleted (shift-delete or ctrl-delete, whichever it is) an auto-complete address from preferences. Turns out I kinda need it back and I shouldn't have deleted it... Is there a way to get that address back into the auto-complete list? I've tried adding it as a bookmark, but that didn't seem to help. Ideas? Or is it gone forever..

Thanks! J

I have the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension installed.

When I click on links in other applications, for example email, is there a way to choose which container it opens on? Right now, it opens without a container.

When I reinstalled firefox, I had a complete sync on my Tablet (chrome), and my phone (Android).

I signed in using Authy as the MPA. my account came back as blank. I thought wierd. Then signed in again to my phone, It was also blanked, even though it showed previous website visits than no longer were in the profile.

I know have one device (Chrome book). with a complete profile and book mark list, along with passwords etc. Dont wanna sync, as it will wipe that as well. How can I get it to populate correctly.

From Chrome to Android etc.

I'm no longer able to share multiple documents through Dotloop. For years if you click mutliple files a new button pops up that says share and allows you to send all that has been checked, as of today I can say that no longer happens. I tried in Edge and it still works fine. See attached images, one from Firefox the other Edge

So, whenever I select an Adobe Community/Forum help link, like this: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/how-to-set-default-font-in-indesign/m-p/11092203

The web page "blinks" the requested Adobe destination page - but then provides an error page (see page-clip image attached here) and no destination result. It does not require login - I should be able to see the topic in the Adobe Community (HelpX) page.

But either Adobe or Firefox is preventing me from seeing the page. Please advise. Firefox is my default browser. When I copy link and paste-and-go in Chrome, it works as expected - I see the page.

I accessed the RedHat 7 Administrator Guide (in PDF form) from a RedHat web page. Firefox shows it as 603 (or so) pages long. If I print it from my Windows 11 Acer laptop from Firefox, somewhere between 40 and 58 pages print. The times that Firefox pretends that the document is 58 pages long, there is an error pop-up (attached) - an error message that provides absolutely no useful information. Other times, there is no error message, but only the first pages of the document print. In "normal" (not debugging mode), the Windows 11 printer status page shows the page status as a fraction, with the denominator climbing as Firefox seems to be stepping through the pages of the document, and with the numerator seemingly climbing as pages are sent to the printer (on my LAN). The denominator stops at between 40 and 58 pages. If I run Firefox in debug mode, the status shows only one number. Judging by its speed, I assume that it's the number of pages sent to the printer. If I copy the same pdf document to, say, my CentOS Linux 5.8 box and print it with lpr, the entire document prints. If I open the document (on the WIndows 11 box) with Bing, it prints many pages. [I stopped the print job after 70 pages or so. I don't KNOW if it would print the whole document, but it gets farther than FIrefox does.] It doesn't matter if I print from the Firefox print dialog or the system/driver one. And, both are set to print ALL pages of the document.

I have trouble logging into Yahoo email using Firefox, since the last update. It gives error message that site cannot be reached. I can go into settings, Privacy and clear data and then it logs in just fine, but to do this EVERY time I try to log in is a real PITA. Does not happen on other browsers.

For the past week or two I have been getting these annoying pop ups with the Mozilla Firebox emblem demanding that I download the Mcafee and scan my computer for viruses. I don't want to have anything to do with Mcafee or download ANYTHING from them. What's going on? How do I fix this?

I read somewhere UserChrome.css is not official part of Firefox but I would greatly appreciate an answer.

I have set toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true, and userChrome.css file is located here: C:\Users\<my name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\********.default\chrome\ ,which is the folder pointed out by Firefox in the help menu.

I don't know what would be the most reliable way to test if the file is loaded. I have tested it with these:

 #context-openlinkintab { display:none!important; }
 #TabsToolbar{ background-color: #CCCCCC !important }

Neither change occurs so I assume UserChrome is not loaded.

I created a fresh profile and tested with it, but still no changes in UI. Yes, I did remember to use correct settings in this new profile.

Is this depreciated in Firefox 111 or what might be the problem?

When I open Settings it says: "Your browser is being managed by your organization." I wonder what this means, where did it come from and could this be the problem?

When I open that link there's one entry: Policy Name Policy Value Certificates ImportEnterpriseRoots true

Any help?

This problem has been posted a number of times and I've gotten no solution. About 3 weeks ago, I lost all my tabs when closing down my Mac. I have the function to have tabs when resigning on (it's worked fine for years), Also, all my desktop icons are increased in size to 1" by 3/4". Also, cannot download another browser. This is MOST irritating. Sometimes the answer I got from Mozilla was to connect with aa screen icon, but I didn't have the icon. I have download a new Firefox----no resolution. Last night I uploaded to Big Sur 11.75 I need good technical help. Dorothy

Occasionally, when I'm browsing or watching videos the screen will break into 3 or more pieces, to where you only see the top part of the website. If I scroll up or down, the image distorts further and if I scroll down enough, it will break out of the glitch but leave my screen very blurry. When I hover my mouse over any object on the screen, it distorts and makes it incredibly blurry. This problem persists even after closing Firefox, so I have to restart my PC every time this happens.

Please help, I want to switch from Chrome, but Chrome never had an issue like this. The first picture I uploaded is the screen breaking, the second is the blurriness it leaves afterwards.

Trying to create new "list" in my Twitter account. First click in the Twitter procedure brings up a Firefox box <Continue to Firefox accounts>. How can I get rid of this and continue with the Twitter procedure? Thanks in advance.

I am not sure how to describe this problem I am having with Firefox, e.g., when I tap Ebay icon it goes to Ebay BUT only in Spanish? Will not allow me to do anything but view everything in Spanish? This just happened several days ago and I am suspicious that I have been hacked? This only happens as far as I can tell with Ebay? Now add this to equation, happens with Google browser also? However, it does not happen with Microsoft Edge, with ME I can get to Ebay in english?

I don't know how to fix this, one more thing, even when I do a search on web for Ebay I only get the search for Ebay in Spanish - in other words I cannot get to Ebay english? Tell me what is wrong here?
