Firefox Support Forum

Last night it worked fine but today I went onto Amazon Prime to watch movies or programs and it wouldn't play. It says I need the newest version of firefox to be able to watch. I have it already but no go.

I have two (so far) websites, e.g. yahoo mail and Intuit, that tell me I need to update FireFox. (Can ignore only Yahoo.) However, I did one update, which blew away all of my add-ons, and I found that I was using latest version.

Does anyone have a solution? Are sites not accepting tracking and ad blocking now? I also use DuckDuckGo for search engine.

Would appreciate some words of wisdom on this.

Thank you, Bonsaibill

I just switched to firefox today from Safari after years. But I am not having a good first impression at all. It constantly goes to Not responding, I've had to force close it like 20 times today already.

I only have two plugins installed and they are mainstream ones. (1password and ublock origin)

I almost exclusively browse privately using Duckduckgo/Firefox. I have a few news subscriptions, and other sites which require login each time I open them, which is a bit of a nuisance. Some of them have a "remember me" checkbox, but it doesn't seem to work-I have to log in each time. Is there a way around this? By the way, the "Add Images" button on this page will not let me add a screenshot of the message I am getting.

thanks

I would like to contact Firefox support, but the best I found on the official site is this "ask the community" thing. Is there a support e-mail or a well hidden web form that I missed?

Thanks, zoliking

Hi, The problem I have is that when i download a screenshot in Firefox, left click the download arrow in the top right corner, click on the file, I get a message that says "the app didn't start". Never had the problem in November but seems to have happened after a Firefox update. I have the most current updates for Windows 10 pro 64, Firefox has been removed and reinstalled, Comodo was disabled, Strong VPN was disabled, browser privacy was set to standard, I have set up a separate folder for Firefox downloads and get the same message. I should note that these are all .png files. What app do I need and is it a Windows or Firefox app? Thank you for any help.

Hello,

I was having trouble logging in because I thought I had disconnected my authentication app, but I eventually found it (so I am able to log in now). Before I figured this out, however, I tried to use my recovery key to log in. I found the text file that had my recovery key '[Email] Firefox Recovery Key.txt' (from 2019) and when I tried to use this, it didn't work. I noticed that the recovery page asks for a recovery 'code' instead of 'key' and when I was able to log in, it said I had never set up a Recovery Key.

Just wanted to flag the issue in case there's a reason why old Recovery Keys no longer work. It certainly could have been my error, but since I had the file, it seemed like it should've worked.

When I want a URL, I type it in the address bar. Search has no relevance to a URL, and any intervention of Search gets in the way, and creates errors.

When I click in the search bar, it's because I want a keyword search with one of the search engines. A search is not a URL.

They are two completely different things, and treating either one as the other is error. I do not want Firefox to kidnap my cursor and teleport it to somewhere I didn't click. They are two entirely different spaces, they are not interchangeable. When I click in the search bar, it's because I want a search. Don't you dare second guess me and change my click to the address bar.

How do I turn off this stupid stupid stupid error behavior of FIrefox?

I tried this and it didn't work. In about:config • keyword.enabled and toggle it from True to False. • browser.fixup.alternate.enabled and toggle it from True to False.

When I go to https://www.mozilla.org/ and sign into the home page, I cannot find the Icon for "Sign In/Sign Up" to allow me to navigate to my Firefox Account and Sign In. This make it a real pain in the ass to check what my subscriptions are, what my Profile says, or to check anything else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have never seen a website that is so disorganized.

I had to

1) Sign in to Mozilla by typing https://www.mozilla.org/

2) Go down the home page to Contact Us.

3) The go to Support and find "Sign In/Sign Up"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This just to sign into Mozilla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A second problem unrelated to your screwed up sign in to my account, is that while I can see that I have subscribed to your VPN, I cannot find the big ball with "VPN is On/ VPN is Off" to sign into the VPN.

Hi II am a relative computer novice and I am confused by the concept of deleting cache and cookies.

I am having trouble with Firefox browser on Vanguard website. I was told to clear my cache and/or cookies.

I don't currently store any Vanguard passwords on my computer.

However, I’m afraid that if I clear cache or clear cookies I will inadvertently remove the passwords for all my other websites.

Is there a way to clear cache and clear cookies without deleting passwords?

Several weeks ago I submitted a problem I am having with "Auto Populate" to the community and never heard one word back...I was nice and calm and sweet...

Was there something wrong with my submission?

Thank you

Hi, I have a desktop with windows 10 64 bit. I have been using an add on called 'Flash Video Downloader' I have it on my laptop and LOVE it. Same version of Windows and Firefox on both devices. I can not find Flash Video Downloader on my desktop Firefox. I cannot find where to download or get it. Can you help me with this issue? Thank You PBob

I am in the USA. Every time, on any page or website that I need to provide credit card info, when I click in the box to type in the CC numbers/expiration date/CCV, a window pops up as it should (for auto-fill) with my credit card information. In that window, I can scroll over the different credit cards, click on the one I want to use, and it SHOULD auto-fill into the box where the numbers would normally be typed in. Now, the window still pops up and I can scroll over the credit cards and choose one, but when I click on any of the particular credit cards, the auto-fill doesn't work. The boxes in "settings" are checked to allow auto-fill. It worked for months, then just stopped. Thanks for your assistance!

Hi, I have a Firefox account since long, I use it to publish my add-on. I haven't signed in recently and didn't take action when I've received an email that developers should move to 2FA. Now I'm trying to sign in to my account but it's always asking for the 6 digits security code, even though I have never set up 2FA on my account and thus don't know which authenticator app I need to use. Neither do I have recovery codes - naturally. Can anyone help me with my account? Best regards, Kaspar

Using PayPal, I have just clicked on making a donation to you of 20 dollars. I had intended it to be 10 dollars. Also, I'm not sure whether I made a mistake regarding a single donation or a monthly donation. I cannot afford to make you a monthly donation for that amount. I am happy to donate 10 dollars on an annual basis. Please inform me if I have made a mistake, or whether this is a single donation.
