My firefox has suddenly changed from Eng (AU) to Eng (GB) or sometimes Eng (US). This has caused me to be blocked from certain survey sites. I am also blocked because my IP address now comes out of Perth Australia instead of Hobart Tasmania. Please help. I am at a loss.

Good morning,

I have a question regarding my google accounts.

When I log into my email, the browser never leaves me logged in and never remembers my laptop. I always have to confirm over with my phone that it is me and that only started when I began using Firefox as my default browser.

How can I change the settings within Firefox to keep my info saved, so I do not always have to confirm over my phone?

Thank you!

If I have to go more than 2 steps into a web site, example accessing my propane account, Firefox hangs up and I need to use a different browser to access my account. This happened with ChatGPT, when I got to the log in page Firefox hung up, I used the CCleaner browser to get into the website. I'm guessing I have something setup in the security settings of Firefox that's blocking me.

Why does Firefox not add the Amazon link (ie shortcut/bookmark) like it does with other websites? When I hit new tab, and Firefox gives me a page with previously visited sites, but never Amazon. I have redone my places.sqlite file, and all the bookmarks disappeared, and then I visit Amazon a few times, then I come here. Guess what? When I look, I see the history for support.Mozilla (ONE VISIT) - but NOT Amazon which I have visited NUMEROUS times today? I can also type it in the address bar and it WILL NOT show up afterwards in the drop down suggestions like other sites do. I can see the tiny search icon ("This time, search with") for Amazon show up, but nothing else. And I just want a link to access my orders, not a search link. Thanks

5 hr. ago Dell Latitude, Windows 10. Firefox will not display formatting options (such as italics, bold, underline, delete, etc.) in gmail. The only way to display the options is by hovering the cursor over the blank space above the name of the person it's going to (or received mail, just to be able to delete it) until an option appears. Nothing is indicated, and I have to move the cursor until I find the desired option and then click on it. The same thing happens in Chrome. This is totally crazy-making (insofar as gmail worked perfectly until a short time ago) and I'd welcome your suggestions and input.

Hi, Since yesterday, the addresses of https://**** pages, images, basically everything I put the pointer on appear at the bottom of my screen. I have not installed any new add-ons.

Best regards

I received from Firefox that my AT&T email had been breached and a recommendation to change my password. I had trouble changing it on Firefox so I got assistance from AT&T technical support. They were able to help me change my password, however, I was directed to use the Microsoft Edge browser. Now I can access email thru Microsoft Edge, but now cannot get my email on Firefox. After several different attempts, the Technician told me that the problem was contained within the Firefox Browser, and that I would have to uninstall if and download the browser again. However, I would loose all of my bookmark favorites. I do not agree with the recommended solution, as I have the Firefox Browser set for auto updates, and the email was working just fine prior to my changing the password. Are there other options available thru Firefox in order for me to get my email? Also, the Technician first had me to go to settings and delete cookies, browsing history, cache, etc. PLEASE HELP!. I do not like Microsoft Edge and much prefer to use Firefox.

I have that issue also it shows up anytime I try PNC.com or my health care insurance. The workaround is using Firefox's private window. I removed my saved login and dumped my data, cookies, site data, and cache but that didn't help. That has been a pain restoring other sites I had saved, but that's another story.

  See image for error message.

My keyboard regularly locks up using Firefox. I tracked the problem down to having upwards of 40 Firefox processes running in Task Manager. Disabling them or restarting Firefox only works for a few hours before the problem recurs.

Several people here recommend disabling "Use recommended performance settings," which should give me the option of selecting the max number of processes to be running.

However, when I disable the recommended performance setting, the hardware acceleration option appears, but not the process number selection. I'm finding no way to set the max number of processes.

I'm hoping for a work-around to that, or a different solution.

Thanks.

BTW, I also notice excessive processes running when I use Chrome. I'm concerned why this is happening on both my browsers.

Firefox AND Monitor:Questions on how to change Firefox account's primary email address to a previously/currently used one and how to read replies to that question already posted

Question 1. I see questions similar to mine, but how do I access replies? I click on them, but there is no link attached.

Question 2,  How do I use Firefox Monitor to change my Firefox account primary email address to an email that is already in use, by me, used for an older version of Firefox on a previous computer that is no longer in service? 

This is what I've done. In Monitor, I clicked on the link that says "Change Primary Email Address." It goes to a nice instruction page. I click Menu lines, go to Manage Account, I try to add the email as a secondary, so that I can then make it my primary. I click save. However, I get a pretty red error message that tells me "Account already exists." Of course it does. It's my account. I'm on a less than a year old PC, which came with Windows 11 already loaded. I'm on Firefox version 109.0.1, 64-bit. I've used Firefox on laptops for years. I'm very comfortable using regedit. Thanks. Lakshmi
