This is an older iMac. I already use Firefox on "my" side, which is most of the time. I hardly ever use "his" side, but I need to use it to register something under his email. Apple no longer updates our Safari as it's too old; therefore I NEED to use another browser to stay safe. I downloaded Firefox tonight for "his" side--and now I can't even go to the website I need WITHOUT going thru Google (whose nosiness I HATE). 1) SO WHAT SHOULD I DO? Second question: How do I get to his "Currently AT&T" Emails through Firefox?

If I have a pinned tab, but I close out of the browser completely, that pinned tab should NOT open there when I relaunch the browser. NO tabs should be opened when I relaunch the browser after it has been completely closed.

PLEASE provide a way to disable this annoying "feature" (i.e., bug).

Thank you

Any time I launch Firefox, and it loads with the six tabs I have setup, it doesn't actually load the site until I click the tab. It shows the tabs with the correct favicons, but it doesn't actually download the site until I click the tab. Is there anyway to get it to load the site before I ever click the tab?

Pinned sites disappear after rebooting on Mac

Hello community,

I've been moved to MacOS at work and since then, Firefox will not always restore my pinned sites when I start it the next day.

Here is what I do:

  1. Right click a tab, select "Pin Tab"
  2. Go about my day
  3. At the end of the day, I close Firefox by using command Q and shutdown my Mac
  4. The next day, I start Firefox and most of the time, my pins are gone

I did not have this issue on Windows Firefox. I am using MacOS 26.5.2 and Firefox 152.0.4 Firefox says "Your browser is being managed by your organization" in settings. It is a link that can be clicked and the only active policy showing there is "DisableAppUpdate" which I assume is because we have our own tool to manage software updates.

Any idea what could cause my pinned tabs to disappear? I did not really customize the settings so far, I do NOT clear browsing data when exiting FF and the startup option "Open previous windows and tabs" is NOT selected. I have Ecosia and 1Password as plugins.

Any help appreciated, thank you.

Bonjour,

Je reviens à la charge ! Et malgré mes recherches sur le web Je n’arrive pas à trouver la solution pour lire les vidéos proposées par « Orange Actualités » L’écran est noir et de plus j’ai ce message

« Votre video n’est pas affichée car vous avez refusé les cookies » Lors de ma demande chez Orange j’ai obtenu cette réponse https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/sites-disent-cookies-bloques-les-debloquer.

Firefox installé sur mon MacBookPro M2 Firefox version 152.0.4 (aarch64)

Dans les paramètres « Vie privée et sécurité » je ne trouve pas comme avant une zone « Cookies » activer/désactiver/effacer. Je vous signale que j’ai installé en Extension AdGuard AdBlocker où uBlock Origin

Quand l’un ou l’autre est désactivé la lecture vidéo se fait bien.

C’est l’extension qui est la cause de ce désagrément.

J’ai demandé à Mozilla comment faire pour adapter l’extension pour que - celle ci soit opérationnelle pour le coeur de son objet - et puisse permettre le lecture vidéo dans Orange actualités (c’est pareil pour d’autres vidéos d’ailleurs)

Firefox Mozilla qui me renvoie vers « Github ». J’y vais mais c’est un service vraiment dédié aux pros ! C’est illisible pour un néophyte et même en cherchant bien je n’ai pas trouvé la moindre parcelle de solution.

Alors je vous pose la question simplement Comment paramétrer Firefox 152.0.4 sur un Mac IOS 15.7.7 avec une extension de bloqueur de publicités qui ne bloque pas la lecture vidéo.

Merci d'avance

Content Security policy blocks essential scripts no matter what I do.

It's new Firefox installation, Troubleshoot mode, Enhanced tracking disabled, I'm not on VPN, can log into X.com in another browser just fine.

It's the reason #1 I don't use Firefox. I thought the issue would be fixed but it has been like this for long time.

Yet whatever I do, whatever I turn off this pops up:

Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource (default-src) at https://abs.twimg.com/responsive-web/client-web/bundle.Conversation.721fc4aa.js because it violates the following directive: “default-src 'self'”

The screenshot is from Zen, but it uses Firefox and the issue is the same in Firefox.

'Dear Customer Support, I use Firefox exclusively as my browser. I use Google Calendar as one of my tags. For a few weeks, a number has shown up to the left and I want to eliminate it. I was referred back to you for help by Google and told it was a listing for “motivations/notifications” and could be “shut off.” I could not even find a listing for “motivations” among the Firefox listings. I would appreciate your help in finding a way to block this number on the Google Calendar tag. Thanks.'

MacOS: If not already running, Firefox does not load requested URL on launch MacOS 26.5.2, Firefox 152.0.4

How to reproduce: 1) Set Firefox as the default browser 2) Completely quit Firefox 3) Open a URL (e.g. open Spotlight, type a query, select "Search the web", or any of the many other ways) 4) Observe Firefox opens but does not open a tab with the externally requested URL

This used to work fine. It still works on Windows. Reproduced on two different Macs. If Firefox is already running, it works as expected.

I have set up multi-account containers, but when I try to open a Google Workspace email account in a container, I get an error message:

"Google 400. That’s an error.

The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That’s all we know."

I have used this successfully before, but have just got a new Macbook and now it's not working. Thoughts?
