Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

If I visit the same webpage twice in the Firefox browser, Firefox no longer shows the first webpage visit in the Library > History window. In this window, I would like for Firefox to show all visits to a webpage. In this case it should show both the first and second visits to the webpage, with timestamps to indicate the times of each visit.

Is there any configuration that I can make to Firefox that can achieve this?

Thank you, James Pedersen

My Firefox browser is updated to the most recent version. I've previously used ProtonVPN and I've never had any problems. As soon as I updated Firefox, however; there are connectivity issues and pages won't load. I've tested with other web browsers and are able to load pages there while they simultaneously won't load in Firefox. I've tried deleting ProtonVPN and re-installing, but that didn't work either. I reached out to Proton about this and they are looking into it from their end to see if there is a solution, but I'm pretty confident it has something to do with Firefox as other browsers are working as they should be.

Hello, Firefox is forcing the search engines into their strict safe search, which is hiding the results I am looking for. If I use the browser, for example Chrome this is not a problem and it lets me change it so I do not think it is a network problem, is there anything I can do, or you can do? I have included pictures of the Firefox and Chrome SafeSearch windows for reference. I'm afraid I can't really give you any data or anything, I'm not the best with computers so I will need help to find anything, sorry.

I like using Firefox but it is increasingly becoming incompatible with more and more websites. There is nothing wrong with the websites, I can login using Google Chrome just fine. Firefox simply won't allow me to login to certain websites that I was able to access using Firefox before. Anyone know why this is happening?

I have not noticed this before upgrading my Mac to Sequoia 15.0, using latest Firefox browser update, but "printing to PDF" which I used in the past extensively, makes a PDF file that causes the letters to be one ASCII number off. So if I type into the "search" field "p", then all the "o's" are highlighted. I can only enter a search term if I usean "ASCII number +1" technique, so I can search for "get" by typing in "fds". Numbers are searched for as in the past. This is not happening if I make a PDF using my Safari browser, all the PDF words are correct and searchable as in the past. Anyone have insights as to why this might be occurring? I will try restarting in "safe" mode and re-downloading Firefox as is suggested in some of the articles here. Thanks!

For the past few days now I've been getting a PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR when I try to use certain websites such as Reddit or Tumblr. The problem occurs on both my PC and mobile when using Firefox. I can access the websites just fine using other browsers.

I've tried the solutions listed here: https://appuals.com/pr-end-of-file-error/

But none of them have worked. I've also tried renaming the 'cert9.db' file in my profile folder, but that hasn't worked either.

I make invoices for work and need to enter a dozen addresses every day. For every one of them Firefox pops up and asks if I want to update my address. No. I never do. I have the "Save and fill addresses" box ticked off, I've tried with it ticked on as well. How do I block this box from ever showing up? If I ever move I'll update it manually. This used to not be a problem but it just started happening recently.

I cannot print from Firefox. It worked fine, and then stopped. I'm not sure what changed. It doesn't matter what printer I use. Even printing to PDF fails. No errors appear, and nothing shows up in the printer queue. All the other applications in Windows print just fine. It's just Firefox. And just for this one Windows user.

I tried clearing the saved printer settings in the about:support page. I tried refreshing Firefox. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. I tried uninstalling, removing the mozilla folder in %appdata%, and reinstalling Firefox. No luck.

The only time I can get it to print anything is to log into a different user account on this same PC. Printing from Firefox seems to work then.

It seems there is some user-specific printer setting/file/whatever that is messed up. I'm not sure what else to try.

Thanks.

Hello,

I submitted my initial request August 17, 2024. 

You responded you were working on the problem. Today, September 13, 2024, the problem remains. My history continues to pile up, and my cookies and cache will not clear.

This is the second time I am clearly stating my request. Please read below.

Thank You, A.B. Brown

Hello,

On Wednesday, July 17, 2024, and years prior to this date; in fact since I first got my laptop, I was able to clear my cookies and cache. I would go to my menu, select History and select Clear Recent History. The box to clear my cookies and cache would show, and I would click on Clear. When I would go back to the menu, and select History, it would show Empty.

On Thursday, July 18, 2024, and since, I have not been able to clear my cookies and cache. All the days of entries since July 18. 2024 are piling up.

I certainly do not know what changed. I would appreciate your listing step by step what I need to do to get my cookies and cache to work/clear.

Or, if you can just fix the problem, please. My laptop is Windows 10, and I use Firefox. Thank you.

Regards, A.B. Brown

I use Firefox on my Mac Mini. For some unknown reason, when my Firefox home page has changed from opening as a full screen view to a small box in the upper right part of my screen. Then I have to change it to the full screen view. I would like to find out how to get it changed back to always opening with a full screen view, please. Also, why is there no customer service phone number posted? Some of us prefer phone support, rather than typing questions and hoping someone knows the answer and takes time to respond.

macOS Sonoma, M1 Not sure when this happened, but I can no longer change my zoom level in settings. As you can see in the screenshot, the - and + are both greyed out and I can't use them. Using cmd+ or cmd- doesnt work either.

For a credit card field, my card options show up. When I choose one it fills, but when I hit enter or tab, the filled info disappears.

It appears to be this (2nd) problem and known fixed bug. But it was fixed in v118, and I'm using v125.03 and it's still happening. https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1416148 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1817926

(I whited out the card numbers.)

Just received notice of "Firefox Review Checker - Ensure review authenticity in your online shopping" tool. I realize it's new and Mozilla is looking for customer input from using the tool. How much does it cost? Thanks for your help.

I'm having trouble with some websites not loading, or only partially loading (ie. videos not working on FaceBook). I close and restart Firefox which sometimes helps, but certain websites are just not working.

If I want to edit a URL or type one in or just use the address bar as a search bar, the field converts to a light blue highlight as soon as I click on it. I am no longer able to see what I am typing or to check what is there. No type shows up at all, even if I highlight it, though I know it is there.

The first screenshot shows what I see as soon as I click on that field. Before clicking, I will see the URL.

The second screenshot shows what happens when I try this on a new page without a URL already in the bar. After a few characters, what I'm typing appears in a little popup right below the address bar. I assume this is normal. But if I want to see or revise a URL, I am not able to see it in order to do so.

I can’t figure out how to fix this! Any ideas?

So, my firefox is now starting to malfunction since i tried loggin in back, changed by passowrd, tried again and still couldnt't sign in fully. Is it a bug or a glitch, and is there any way to fix it?

For many years, I have paid my telephone bill on-line using Firefox. Suddenly, I can on longer access <frontier.com> using Firefox. Chrome works find using the very same URL. But once inside the home page for Frontier, I can no longer login using Firefox. Grateful for any help. Thanks Email removed for privacy reasons

I did a clean Windows reinstall on my computer and I forgot Mozilla account password, so I asked a password reset. It went fine, but my bookmarks and password were not syncing. I thought sync server is slow or similar, but nothing happened after 2-3 hours.

I searched on Google and found that a password reset deletes everything.

Developers! Are you f*cking serious if you don't warn the users when they are doing password reset if that will delete everything?????? I f*cking can't believe that!

I lost hundreds of passwords and bookmarks. That is f*cking insane!
