Hello,

I use Screen Time to block sites on my Mac, running Sequoia 15.1.1. For some reason, it recently (within the last 2 weeks or so) stopped blocking sites on Firefox 134.0.2, but not on Safari.

Is this a known issue? Is there a solution?

Thank you for your help.

I am trying to access certain HTTPS websites and some of them show PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR in Firefox. This error is not present in Edge or Chromium.

Here's what I've tried (none of these works):

  • DNS over HTTPS turned off
  • Uninstall all add-ons
  • Reinstall Firefox
  • Create new profile and set it as default
  • Delete/rename certs.db in the Firefox profiles folder.

The only fix that works is to use Troubleshoot Mode every time I visit these websites which is not practical. Any ideas on what could be the problem?

I don't know if this is relevant but one of the websites that does not work is https://alexan.com.ph/

I have two computers. Both sign into the same Firefox account. Both instances of Firefox are the same version (134.0.1 64-bit).

On my main computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the first image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-42-57.png)

On the other computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the second image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-43-57.png)

How to I get both instances of Firefox to do the same thing when creating a new tab, i.e. organize the recommendations like the second image?

Recently when I try to download a file Firefox seems to give it a random amount of time before it attempts to open the file. For small files this isn't a problem, as it always seems to give at least a few seconds, but larger files get cut off. This leaves the file corrupted/incomplete.

I have no idea why is started doing this. Just one day it started opening everything I downloaded, be it PDF, image etc when complete. I turned this off and it has stopped for things that download properly, but it's still doing this 'cut off' attempt to open.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks,

Firefox is no longer saving all my history. OR, I can't find it. I can't find it because: HISTORY/SHOW ALL HISTORY is now only showing "today". This occurred with v133, but I do not know if it occurred with any given update. I updated to 134.0.1. That did not fix problem. I have not tried regressing.

In the past, I was able to save YEARS of history (although I sometimes created a new profile to restart the history file due to its size).

1. I was using the "DYNAMIC HISTORY" addon, which worked fine for years. When I found Firefox was showing only the current days' history, I disabled that addon. Didn't fix anything.

2. "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" option IS NOT SELECTED. NEVER HAS BEEN

3. OTHER SETTINGS: no - Always use private browsing mode yes - Remember browsing and download history yes - Remember search and form history NO - Clear history when Firefox closes

any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. I am also baffled: googling this problem comes up empty handed.

Hi there, I just got a new work laptop and tried to sync my firefox browsers so I could keep my passwords and bookmarks from my old laptop. Unfortunately I forgot my password, so I had to reset it on my new device. I logged in again on my old laptop but it's still not syncing or updating the bookmarks on the new laptop. Is there any way to move my bookmarks and passwords over to my new laptop? Thanks!

When I open Robert Reich's substack article of the day, I'm finding that whenever the comments, the word "Trump" is replaced by "Mr. Bully". One can see the original by opening repost. If it is one of my own comments I can open Edit and see the original. I asked Substack support about it and they say it isn't them and to check with my browser. OK, Firefox, is this a new "feature" of Firefox or someone hacking Firefox. Would you please look into this for me.

Tabler Icons Stall Firefox on Windows

I am a Cacti developer and we are considering switching from FontAwesome Web Fonts to Tabler Web Fonts. However, on Firefox for Windows only, we are having a major slowdown when using the Tabler SVG based webfonts. The page load is first stalled by Firefox apparently loading all the Web Fonts, which would appear normal with any browser (though exceedingly slow on Firefox for some reason).

However, once the page is loaded, when going off tab to another browser tab, and then back to the Firefox tab that includes the Tabler webfonts, there is a 3 second delay before the tab switches. When we enable the performance analyzer, we find that the delay is almost 100% Reflow of the page, even though the page is static as this point (no changes) from the last time it was activated.

We do not have this issue on Firefox for Linux, MS Edge or any other Chromium browser, only Firefox on Windows. I'm using the latest version 134. Should I be opening a bug?

Computer: Lenovo Y70-70 laptop Phone: Motorola Edge+ 5G UW (2022) OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Home Firefox: Version 134.0.1 (64-bit)

When I awoke my laptop from sleep this morning, the opened Mercari tab did not load correctly, forcing me to log out and attempt to reset it. It acted as if I was not logged in to begin with and would not load the correct account information. When I logged out and then attempted to log back in, I was given an error that stated that the password or account was incorrect. I contacted Mercari Support for assistance, first, as I could not log into my account on an Edge browser, either. When I opened a Chrome browser, it auto-logged me in without issue. Mercari support assisted me for close to 13 hours, and eventually changed my email address associated with my account. Unfortunately, after that, I still could not get logged in, still getting the same wrong password or account message on my laptop. HOWEVER, when I opened firefox on my phone and attempted to log in there, it worked, using the same account and password information as I had attempted on my laptop. Additionally, I was able to log into my Mercari app on my phone, as well as BOTH Chrome and Edge on my laptop. It is only Firefox on my laptop which is not accepting the correct information. I have cleared my cache on firefox, which did not work. I have done an end task on Firefox on my laptop and restarted it, which did not work. I have restarted my laptop, which did not work. I power cycled my T-mobile router, which did not work. I even connected to the internet via hot-spot through my motorola phone, which also did not work. I can log into Mercari on any other way that I attempt, using the same account and password, EXCEPT for Firefox on my Lenovo. Firefox claims that it is up to date and will not find a newer update. Nothing was altered, to my knowledge, between putting my laptop to sleep last night and waking it up this morning. No updates, power interruptions, or anything that I am aware of. I am at my wit's end and am out of ideas for things to try to fix this. Please help. I do NOT want to have to run Chrome again, just to be able to log into a single page on my laptop.
