Firefox Community Forum

I can't get to OpelGT.com. It is a car site that I moderate and visit frequently. I just get "waiting" or other messages if I use the link on the Firefox start screen. I can get to all other websites I normally visit with no problems(CNN, various Facebook groups and pages, Amazon, etc.). This problem started around the last few days of November. I CAN get to OpelGT.com using Microsoft Edge with no troubles.

When opening firefox, why do I have to wait for it to update?

I am asking it to open, not to update. You can do it on closing, not on opening. Am I opening the browser for you to update, or for me to navigate?

I have two computers both with Windows 11 and Firefox is synced. On one computer the Capital One website works perfectly with no problems but on the other I can't get details of credit card charges and I often get messages like oops something went wrong. On that computer the site works perfectly when I use Chrome to access it. Any ideas?

Whenever I try to use Reddit Firefox refuses to display most media elements. This has only been a problem since the recent upgrade to 145. I've tried refreshing Firefox. I've even re-installed it, using a totally new profile.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I get the following message (image attached) in the console if I inspect one of the elements involved.

I run the current Firefox version under Windows 11 Pro on a Dell Inspiron 15 3530 laptop, Lately, I've been having problems with my bookmarks:

• First, I found that I had somehow lost a large number of bookmark tags; it took me several days to restore them,
• Next, I found that I had lost a bunch of bookmark subfolders; the bookmarks (for the most part) are still listed under their tags.
• When I try searching for tags in Bookmarks Manager, the search yield no results
• When I try to restore my bookmarks from a previous date, I get an "unable to process file" message.
• When I try to open the profile folder through the debugging information page, I get a "file not found" message. After some searching, I found the profile folder not at "C:\Users\croge\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\7csymh5k.default-release", but at "C:\Users\croge\AppData\Local\Packages\Mozilla.Firefox_n80bbvh6b1yt2\LocalCache\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles", Something seems to have gone haywire--did I miss something, or is there an error somewhere?

I keep getting emails regarding my signing into accounts from different locations. Now the thing is that I use a VPN to access MSN outside of China because I cannot read the Chinese version. It is kind of annoying getting the emails from MSN but there is no way to contact whoever to let them know I use a VPN. Does anyone know who I can inform about this?

For some months now, LinkedIn does not load 90% of the time. It just 'hangs'. It's the only website that this problem happens. So I switch to another browser to access LinkedIn now, which is my most used site.

I can't figure out why gmail will not allow me to log in. It tells me that cookies are turned off but I can't even figure out what that means or how to correct it

After Installing new system on my laptop and singing in to my Mozilla account nothing was restored from it. Everything is empty as it is completely new account but I created this one few years back and never had a problem with a sync. Hopefully it will be restored since I had large amount of important bookmarks. If you can check and resolve it please. Thank you.

Hi there. The Netflix homepage is no longer displayed properly. Only the headlines are visible without the thumbnails (see screenshot 1). Netflix is properly displayed in screenshot 2 which was taken in an other browser. Can somebody please help me to solve this problem. Many thanks.

Every time I click away to a different program, it closes my private browsing window. It automatically closes and I cannot find a relevant setting. Only happens in private browsing.

New computer upgrade from MS10 to MS 11 365. I lost all bookmarks for internet locations. How do I retrieve them? Where is the new bookmark access icon on the Firefox home screen?

I’m new to Firefox and found the Textfox theme on GitHub, which is pretty cool. However, I’m having trouble with the pinned tab size, they’re too small. It seems the theme’s creator fixed this by using Sidebery, but I don’t want to use that extension. Is there a way to change the pinned tab size without Sidebery?

BLUFF:

1. Long start up times (do not see this on other browsers) 2. FIrefox often crashes. Browser tells me that a report has been sent. To where? No response. 3. How do I check if my browser is up to date?

What could be causing this? What are my effective actions to increase performance?

When I do try to create, rename or delete a profile, I get the message, "An unexpected error has prevented your changes from being saved".

I have a new Windows 11 PC. I installed Firefox first from the Windows store and had problems adding a second profile. Now, I've downloaded the full installer and still have the problem after multiple uninstalls, deleting the appdata Firefox folder and re-installing. I've also tried to rename the FF folder after encountering the problem and just restarting FF. It seems to create a new folder with profiles, but I can't create or delete the profiles from the profile manager or from about:profiles.

I've also checked that the folders and profiles.ini are not in read-only. I've also tried to manually create profiles or create profiles using the command prompt. Nothing seems to work.

Using latest Firefox browser, when I open Google and want to ‘paste’ a word, it will not let me. Instead I get this default message, that I can’t delete. I can type anything I want, but I can’t ‘paste’ a word or words. How to fix please? HP desktop PC Windows 11 64 bit I see there is a 'new' (to me) AI mode icon in the 'same' search window as where you type on the 'right' of the search box. Maybe I just haven't noticed because I didn't have an issue before.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions
