I have quite a few tiles on firefox I can not delete. They will sometime move around the page but will not go away. I switched to firefox recently because of IE going away and have been trying for several months with no results. I'm not sure what the boxes on the home screen are called but hope someone understands what I mean.

After I upgraded to the most recent version 104.0.1 on my desktop, Google search results infinitely scroll instead of breaking up into pages. I haven't changed anything else, didn't add any new Add-ons, etc.

What could be causing this? I tried altering every setting on the Google Search site, but it keeps happening. Is there a way to revert to an older version?

I have been using Firefox for many years. Suddenly I cannot get any sound from videos in Facebook, YouTube or anywhere. The settings in Privacy --> Permissions --> Autoplay are set to "Allow Audio and Video". There is nothing wrong with the computer as I can play videos and sound files on it with no problem. Sound is no problem on Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge. It is just Firefox that after years of use the sound as stopped working. Can anybody help?

Hey Firefox Team,

Earlier this evening, I was doing a little security update and changing the password to my Twitter and email addresses. Standard stuff. Firefox suggested a secure password and I agreed; Firefox came up with a good one. The key icon in the URL bar showed a little message that said it had saved the passwords. Hooray.

It turns out, it didn't update my passwords at all and now I am locked out of my accounts. Firefox hasn't saved these new passwords it came up with and I'm stuck with my old ones which, obviously, don't work.

What can I do?

Playing back 4K YouTube videos on macOS uses software decoding, when the only GPU available is from AMD, despite the GPU being capable of VP9 decoding. Unsure if macOS's AMD drivers just don't have VP8/VP9 decoding baked in at all.

Hi

I exported all my firefox passwords to a csv with the option in about:logins.

Now i wanted to reimport them and set signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled = true, restarted firefox, opened about:logins, menu option import from csv is present, selected the exported csv and nothing happens.

There is no error massage. A you seriously telling me that since lockwise has been abandoned about 2 years ago that there is an option to export the csv but NO freaking possibility to import it?

How for god sake should i get my >500 Passwords back into firefox?

Chrome does import the csv exported by without a hassle by the way.

Every year or so I try to switch to Firefox but always have trouble with basic website access - FF is simply unreliable with accessing random websites, problems that I never experience with any other browser.. Tried today - downloaded, fresh install, new profile, the only extension is 1password. Able to log into Amazon.com no problem, but harbor freight simply doesn't load. Open up Edge and it loads immediately.

I tried troubleshooting mode, no luck. I'm using Win 11, FF 104.0.1 64bit on Dell XPS 15.

What am I doing wrong here? THanks

WHY do you strip my FireFox every 4 times I update? Sooner or later I will get tired of this circle jerk. Put my FireFox back like I run it, you try and try to have me run a generic Browser, when they do me no good, trying to mine my data is futile, as we show time after time. I like FireFox because I can cut the dead weight and go to work. Please help Robert StrongBow

Whenever I try to add an attachment to my Gmail message it freezes and locks up Firefox and I have to restart Firefox. I can move to another browser and it works just fine so it is a Firefox issue. Also, Firefox is very slow, especially with certain sites like Amazon, Wayfair, etc. It gets slower the longer you use those sites. I cannot even open some sites such as my bank, Navy Federal Credit Union and Etsy. I can open them on a different browser same computer. While I like that Firefox helps with privacy I think I am going to have to move to another browser as I can no longer tolerate these issues. If you have fixes, that would help. I couldn't find any on the Help search.
