Firefox Support Forum

Gradually, the game Taonga Island became unplayably slow as you started insisting more often that I sync my accounts, mails, etc..

I will NEVER sync because I do not intend to give you in a neat wrapper what others pay you for, I want to remain anonymous as much as possible, and I certainly do not intend to give ANYBODY a neat package of linked and authenticated accounts etc. about myself. That is why I am not on FB, Twitter, LinkedIn etc etc..

STOP demanding I do this SYNC shit. Or I will tell everyone I work with, play with, etc to NEVER us any Mozilla products as sooner or later, they are going to blackmail you.

Starting this afternoon I receive the following error when attempting to open the Norton Password Vault:

Website will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it

I have used these products together for years this is the first problem. The Vault still works in EDGE, I don't know what changed.

Good day,

It would appear that there was an update in the past 24hrs because my tabs appear different (rounder). However, now my bookmarks drop-down menu is all different and messed-up, and I can't delete the things added. Please see the screenshot enclosed...

I now have "Manage Bookmarks" at the top - which is fine. I have "Other Bookmarks" - which I thought I killed a LONG time ago. I have an ADDITIONAL "Manage Bookmarks" at the bottom - which seems redundant, and excessive.

I've done my homework, tried tinkering with old solutions. I cannot delete, move, rename, hide or change any of these. I would ideally like to remove everything except the 1st "Manage Bookmarks" at the top. That seems reasonable.

Thanks for your time and help! William (FF89)

When I open a new page on a site and the new page includes an ability to comment at the end of the article, Firefox automatically opens at that point. How do I stop this happening? I want the page to open at the top, please - as it always used to.

I often misspell "the" as "hte", and other similar typos where (usually the first) two letters are opposite hands of the keyboard and my right hand it slightly faster than my left. Awhile ago, I accidentally hit ADD TO DICTIONARY instead of the THE to correct it. I have also just did it again with a similar typo.

Everything I can find online says there should be a persdict.dat file in my Profile folder, but it is nowhere to be found. I have searched my entire C: drive (including hidden files) for persdict and nothing was found. Has it been moved? OR is there some other way to delete that? Maybe even just a "Delete ALL" added words to go back to the default, since I have never purposely added any words to the dictionary? Since it IS a word I misspell a lot, I really need it to flag it again so I notice it.

To be clear, I am not talking about any add on dictionary or extension. Just whatever Firefox uses by default for filling in forms.

Dear Sir, Since Firefox updated its browser automatically to the latest this morning, I have problem in logging in to a website: http://www.aastocks.com/tc/LTP/RTPortfolioMain.aspx? Logging in with another browser does not have problem. I prefer to use Firefox for this but cannot do so now. Could you help?

Thanks, George Yip

Following is the link(as a example) and there are many other forms also which are not working in my browser, but are working fine in Google Chrome Browser. https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=8UXaNizdH02vE1q-RrmZIbWv986yhRlFvG4VkjASqEZUMUNSOUcxV1ZVQzJIUFY0RzlYVjdJSTdXUy4u

Please see to this, I have cleared cache from my browser, by going into settings of the browser, but nothing could be worked, so please look into this.

Hi Firefox,

I am not a fan of these pre-installled themes. I was given no choice with the update and then found the browser had switched to dark without my asking. I would like to have the same look I had before the change, which was Firefox default.

That's what I am used to and it is disrupting my browsing experience trying to deal with something that looks different, not to mention the frustration of wasting time looking through themes without avail to try and find one that takes to what it was.

So could I ask please can we either have the option to switch themes off and just have things work the way they used to be? Or else maybe an option where we could download and install a theme that is called something like Firefox Classic/Default? If such a thing already exists I would appreciate if someone could point out where to find it.

Recently I have found that I frequently have to "clear all history" in order to have various websites work properly. Example: Facebook and my on-line banking. Occasionally when I try open my on-line bank I get the message saying it (Firefox?) cannot find any account information, or it will display some but not all of my account information. In Facebook, often now many drop down items will not work such as deleting a post, or none of the post pictures will display. It now seems that it is happening more frequently and has become a real pain to clear history and then reload a website. I never seem to have this problem using another browser, which leads me to believe the problems lies with Firefox.

I am becoming very disenchanted with Firefox and am considering using a new browser on a regular basis if this continues.

So why is this happening, and what is the solution to fix this monumental problem?

My old hard drive refused to boot.

I got a new one, formatted it, and copied everything I "thought" I needed from the old one...nothing has been touched, it's all still there, in the case but not plugged in. I did not move any OS files, nor any files from progams folders.

I fresh-installed firefox on my new hard drive and quickly reconstructed my pwd protected accounts from memory.

I'm looking for help here, not a lecture on these newer approaches using master passwords. Gotta live my life my way, eh?

Anyway, now it's year end and I'm having password woes with a few accounts. As they are fiscal, they tend to lock out after 2-3 tries -- sometimes I'm told how many several days, I tend to default and try again after 3. I'm running out of time.

If I fire up the old hard drive and grab those two files, putting them in a dedicated subdirectory, can I retrieve those passwords?

Can you confirm the precise files names, and the most likely subdirectories I will find them in.

Yup, I'm that much of a dinosaur. You may have folders, but I have subdirs.

Cheers and thanks in advance for an answer that works. Or will firefox try to show me the passwords from the current files, not the old ones.

I have bullseye (debian 11) and firefox-esr tab crashs when I try to listen to audio or to view any video. Here are crash report numbers:

Love some solutions thanks.

Have latest version of browser running on Windows 11 Pro with all updates. All websites work fine except for Houston Chronicle Paper. Contacted them and they see no problems on there end. Suggested deleting cookie and cache which I did. Site is slow loading pages and the refresh button on top left page is always blinking. Exiting and restarting the browsing of the paper several times get me through it. Any thoughts?? Michael Lindley

Around 12/8/2021 I allowed an update and it messed up my comcast.net email. I had to do a system restore to an earlier date and finally fixed it. Now I am afraid to allow anymore updates. What is your solution?

This problem started with an update a couple months ago. Each bar is about 4 pixels wide and appears only on the right, left, and bottom edges of the browser window. They persist when the window is full size or smaller, but disappear on f11. The bars are completely unresponsive. Clicking or resizing the window doesn't seem to work inside of them. Even though the top of the window has no visible bar, there is still an unresponsive region like the other three sides and approximately 4 pixels of empty space.

When it comes to color, the bars spend about 50 percent of the time as white and 50 percent as the same gray that Firefox's dark mode uses. I wasn't able to get a screenshot when the bars were gray, but I was able to screenshot the top right and left corners when the bars were white, which I have attached.

It appears as if there are buttons of some sort poking out on the top right and left corners. If I had to guess, the top right icon looks like the "x" button on a Windows 7 window, and the top left icon looks like the red dot in the uppermost corner of a macOS window. My machine has only ever run Windows 10, and Firefox is the only application that this problem occurs in.

Restarting, using troubleshooting mode, manually removing extensions and themes, messing around with compatibility settings, running as administrator, refreshing Firefox, and reinstalling Firefox have all been unsuccessful. It really is annoying to live with this bug.

Since about two weeks wecom.org will not accept my log in info, have reset password etc and it works till next time- repeat over and over. I have no problem with login with Chrome with the latest login I have used. Why!! I have Norton and their anti tracking program which I have turned off for Wescom, still does not work. CHrome works with anti tracker on or off. Wecom does not have an answear for me. Is this a firefox issue? i am frustrated with not being able to do my online banking. Not a computer nerd so I do not know where to turn.

Thank you,

George
