I've been trying to sign in to my Firefox account so I can sync my data since last night. I reinstalled windows as I got a new platform yesterday and didn't want any driver issues. I instead was met with issues getting my primary browser to work after installing it.

I entered 2 different passwords once each and since they didn't work I clicked forgot password. Once I wrote my email in and clicked continue however despite it being the first time I clicked the button I was met with "You've tried too many times. Try again in 29 minutes". It game me that every time I waited out the time and tried again for 3 hours yesterday and it's still giving me that error today after another hour and a half on both my phone and my pc.

Firefox crashed and when it did all my history was gone. All of it. For months if not years. I need to get the history from about the last month back. I am not asking for community people to answer as I already checked that and there is no accountability, clarity, ability to confirm etc. etc. etc. I am asking the engineers at Mozilla to please give me the method that will surely work and is user friendly. I am willing to pay a small fee if necessary.

I live in the sticks and get my internet via satellite. Sometimes it's acceptably fast and I can watch a video, not live, but after only a short wait to download it.

I have Tranquility Reader extension, and this is very useful. But whenever possible, I'd like to be able to see images, ads, and whatnot. Is it possible to automatically activate an extension, this extension, when my download speed is less than 10Mbps.

Can this be done currently? If so, how? If not, would you be able to notify me if this feature is ever added or something similar.

Thank you, Charles Smith Murphy, NC

Dear Team,

Since one day my tabs crash, in the beginning it was only once per hour, by now it happens every 0.5 seconds. Crash report id: bp-85d2c8d1-94f7-4fd9-bc8b-a1d480240209 I reinstalled the newest version and I tried starting in troubleshoot mode but crashes still happened the same way.

Can no longer add multiple Authentication Decisions to the same hostname for different certificates

For years we have been able to login to two different websites running on different ports on the same host with our Firefox browser (The last working version was 102.14.0-3.el7_9) our RHEL 7.x system. When I accessed the different sites, there was two Authentication Decisions, one sending one cert (We will call it CertA) to the system and the other listing sending a different cert (We will call that CertB) to the system, same hostname though.

I updated the Firefox browser to 115.7.0-1.el7_9 and ever since, when I navigate to the first website, it remembers the first Authentication Decision to send CertA to the system and works as intended. Then, I try to navigate to the second site and I never get prompted to pick a cert for the second site (CertB is what it should prompt for) and the connection attempt fails with a "Secure Connection Failed, Error code: SSL_ERROR_UNKNOWN_CA_ALERT" message.

If I go and delete the Authentication Decision for CertA, then go to the CertB site, I get prompted for the cert decision and I am able to login just fine. But, then if I try to go to the CertA site, I get the same error listed above.

I can use a band aid to check the "History > Always use private browsing mode" checkbox (Which never remembers the Auth. Decision) option in Firefox, then have to remember to close the browser each time I want to navigate from one site to the next. But I have never had to do that in the past and wondering if this is a new bug or if it is somehow considered a "Security Feature" or something.

I searched around the net a bit and couldn't find a way to manually add an Authentication Decision myself. Is that possible somehow with a config file edit on our Linux system somewhere?

Thanks kindly ahead of time for any consideration to my issue.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently consuming APIs hosted on an external server using Java( or any other server side language), and everything works smoothly. However, when attempting to consume the same APIs in JavaScript, I encounter the 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' error.

After some research, I discovered that browsers implement security checks leading to this issue. Can anyone advise on how to disable these security checks or resolve this issue when accessing the website in the Firefox browser? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi there.

I like Firefox / Mozilla. However, Chrome wants to be my default and I want to stay with Firefox / Mozilla. When I click on a link in my email or an article with a link, Chrome takes over! It has been happening for about a week or 2, and I don't want it to happen. Do you have any ideas about how I can stop this, please?

Thanks in anticipation, Gerry Austin [email address]

Hi All!

I have a problem with the launch and operation of Mozilla Firefox/Seamonkey. Sometimes the browser gets stuck for minute until the sites start opening. At the same time, when browser starts up, I see activity that was not initiated by me.

After some time of use, the system crashes with a blue screen with an error in the ndis.sys driver.

These problems began to occur after one of the next FireFox updates. Previously, the system had been working without a blue screen for many years. If I do not start FireFox, the error does not recur. Also, if I make filtering TCP connections with the site in the RU zone at the external firewall, FireFox works stably.

I want to understand which process/component/setup entry initiates this activity. Also, I don't want the browser to try to get any information from sites in the RU zone.

FireFox version: 115.7.0esr (64-bit) System version: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit SP1

Thank you!

Hello,

We have deloped a search engine https://caziti.com. Our main focus is on privacy and integrity. We are far from a perfect search engine but our target is more on tech and be able to deliver unique search results, since our search engine has been completley built by us, and we are not dependant on any third parties, makes us able to do this. How would we go about being a predefined search engine in the firefox browser?

Best regards

We need to configure our firefox settings on mac to use with a zebra printer & lightspeed label printing. We have worked with zebra support and lightspeed support, and the firefox version 122.0 does not let us "save" the about:config settings needed to print. We put them in, but it reverts back and doesnt let us save the steps defined in this section of the article:
