Firefox Support Forum

Pretty niche problem, but I couldn't find anyone else with the same kind of problem. Whenever I try to download a file with "%" on its filename, the "%" character gets changed to an underscore. Like say, if I try to download a file named "Skyrim 100% save file", it becomes "Skyrim 100_ save file". Not sure why this is even happening, but it only happens in Firefox. Not Chrome nor Edge.

Every day when I come back to my mac and firefox is open, it will not respond to any new web address. I can put in any web site and it resolves the full page name, but does not open any site. I have to close firefox completely, which is a pain when I have multiple pages open. It does not matter if I have one or tabs in use, I am forced to close out of firefox completely in order for it to work again. This has been going on for years for me with firefox through multiple versions, multiple MacOS, and multiple Mac systems.

Flipp flyer desktop app ceased to function after last update - page opens without flyer data - endless spinning circles only - will not load other Flipp pages such as sign-in etc, NO error messages from Firefox. Desktop app works in Edge.

Hello!

I chose to switch to firefox recently so I haven't figured out how to fix this. Every time I turn my computer on and open my browser and try to log into youtube, I have to log in again. I can save my password for the site but it behaves every time as if it's my first time logging in. This hasn't happened in other browsers so im unsure if it's possibly google account settings. That's why it was my first assumption it was with firefox. so far other logins work fine for me. Thank you!

My passwords are saved on both my browsers, (firefox & safari), I've checked and double checked them. The password works on Safari just fine, no problems there.

I tried typing the email/password in on Firefox. Several times. No luck. I tried removing and retyping the email/passwords into the vault. No luck. I tried shutting the browser down and opening it up again. No luck. I tried restarting the laptop. No luck.

Does Firefox have a problem with Post.News?

Hello there,

So I have this issue where the tabs I left opened on my PC are not showing up, only the ones from 3 days ago (even though I used it yesterday)

Before, sync would, I assume, work automatically when Firefox is closed or something like that, which isn't the case anymore for me, for the last few days/weeks..

So I'm wondering, what can I do to make it work like before?

Thanks in advance!

Linked-In at www.linkedin.com suddenly does not show my basic dashboard (home, notifications, messages etc) since I updated to the latest IOS version for my laptop. I can see the feed, and my account but the dashboard that lets you actually do anything is gone. I tried it on someone else's phone and it works fine.

Is this conflicting with firefox browser somehow?

yesterday, when i logged into my icloud.com to use my email, my screen became dominated by a thing that said something about protecting my privacy or email or what ever. there were two options, and I tried both of them, but that was all it would do. I never was able to get rid of that screen or use my email. I consequently logged into google chrome and then had no trouble at all with my icloud.com account.

I do not have this problem with any other browswer, am using Win 11. have tried run troubleshooting and have reinstalled firefox. am about to give up on firefox after many years as there appears to be no help for this problem

Hello...I appreciate your using Shortcuts & they are very important to me. I once had a problem of not having enough Shortcuts, but that problem has been solved.

My problem now is that the number of COLUMNS in my TopSitesRows often change, without my permission, from 6 Columns to 8. That leaves me with a lot of blank links as well as a lot of links I have visited only once & have no plans to visit again. Why can't I keep the number of COLUMNS the same like I can when I choose how many Rows when I choose TopSitesRows?

Thank you.

Is there any way to make the tabs more clearly defined from one another? All the tabs seem to blend together visually. There is no line that separates each tab from the one next to it. It's very annoying visually. Can this be changed with a setting?

I want to open Sky community but FF just flashes up a blank white page, yet it opens ok in MS edge which I dont use. If i cannot get what I want to open I will have to leave FF.

I used to be able to right click an image and select save as, but now when I right click and select save as I do not get the menu to save in a location on my pc.

Also firebox will not download any files, and also when using my web site's Upload or download a file, this does not work anymore.

They used to work, but I have to use chromium browser to do things in.

Also Firefox will export any files or even my bookmarks.

Been happening for around five weeks now and is impeding my work flow enormously.

Please held.

I have tried all the fixes I can find online without success.

Regards James

Ps even here where it says add images (optional) it will not open a box to browse my files.

Hello, Just recently, when using AliExpres search bar, the results pictures come up funny, like squeezed vertically. I have gone through every possible step- Firefox refreshing, clering data etc. and it is still the same. It works OK in other browsers. Any idea why? AliExpress support cannot help.
