Firefox Community Forum

i can't use the microphone in the AI chatbox. i have been to several sett tings in different places and none have the option to allow it'. I clicked on every gear icon and setting link (and AI chat link) i could find in the firefox browser

If synchronisation works bidirectional - does that mean that all bookmarks vanish on all added computers when they are erased from one of them? Can and should one define one of the computers as the one from which the installations should be preserved?

with this new version i lost everything i need to get back to an older version and get all my extentions my bookmarks back all my s desktop items that i had linked to firefox are gone i can no longer get face book or anything back to firefox book marks every thing i had with firefox

and

I can't login to my Facebook account? But I can login to other browsers,

Can you please help me on this.

Thanks.

after confirmation and approval nothing changes on screen.

To eliminate multiple problems (including disappearance of bookmarks) in desperation I uninstalled and cleared out all remnants of FF, then installed a new FF. Fortunately I had recently imported all the stuff FF more recently lost into MS Edge so I used the FF feature to import from MS Edge. However, every effort to import my bookmarks failed. So I used MS Edge's ability to create a HTML file of my bookmarks and then in FF used the "import a HTML file" feature to get them into FF. However, FF fails to recognize my bookmarks as bookmarks. It lists them in a "Favorites Bar" which cannot be strewn horizontally across the top of my screen as did my bookmarks in the past nor be viewed as bookmarks.

So HOW can I get FF to change the "Favorites" into Bookmarks?

In the tiny image I've uploaded, IF it can be read, the Bookmarks selections are "empty"

Hello everyone,

We are currently investigating an issue where browsers are sending HTTP requests with Connection: close in the header during integrated Windows authentication (NTLM authentication) via SAML Service Provider (SP), leading to premature termination of the TCP connection.

This behavior occurs in the middle of the authentication process, preventing the NTLM authentication from completing and subsequently prompting for re-authentication.

We have observed the following browser behaviors:

Chrome and Edge: These browsers function without issues, communicating with Connection: keep-alive. Safari (macOS): Older versions of macOS with Safari exhibit the Connection: close behavior, leading to authentication failure. Newer versions of macOS with Safari work correctly with Connection: keep-alive. Firefox (macOS): Even on the latest versions of macOS, Firefox continues to attach Connection: close, resulting in authentication failure. Upon reviewing logs, we've identified that various browsers attach the Connection: close header during the NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE request in the NTLM authentication sequence. Although this happens in an environment with a load balancer, we have confirmed that the load balancer is not modifying the header; rather, the client (browser) is adding it.

We would appreciate your insights into the conditions under which Firefox attaches Connection: close to HTTP requests, especially considering the differences across macOS versions and other browsers, addressing the following points:

Are there any known conditions or past cases where Firefox outputs Connection: close in an NTLM authentication environment via SAML SP? Given that older Safari versions show similar behavior, we are also considering if there's a common factor depending on NTLM authentication and browser version. What are the general heuristics, logic, or triggers for a browser to decide to "close" a connection or to attach Connection: close? We are particularly interested in cases that occur mid-authentication process. Could specific configurations (e.g., the combination of SAML and NTLM authentication, or the presence of an intermediate proxy/load balancer) potentially influence Firefox's Connection: close behavior? Are there any additional logs or debugging information we should collect from the Firefox client side to further pinpoint this issue? Any guidance or suggestions you could provide to help us resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

When I'm on my phone and signed into my Firefox I want to be able to send tabs to my desktop. I'll click the three dots on my Samsung 20fe, click share, and click send to device.

Hi Team,

I am having issues logging in to my Firefox account to sync the browser.

"This profile was previously synced to a different account

To keep your data organized and secure, each Firefox profile can only be synced to one account. To sign in using elias@aftc.co, create a new profile."

Cannot connect to BBC Sounds web page (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds). Get the following error message: "The page isn’t redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

Have tried with and without a VPN, have cleared the cache, and shutdown/restarted Firefox, but no luck.

Connects without issue when using alternative browsers.

I don't plan to use any provided AI chatbot. I want to use models that I have downloaded and tested myself and which run on my PC. So please add the possibility to connect through major LLM APIs, the same way other tools way simpler than Firefox already allow to do.

Ordered some new checks from Costco as a "guest" since I haven't set up an online account (generally speaking, I wouldn't use, but to order checks, I need to do it online - not in the store). I put my full order together in the cart, went through the full process of completing the order and payment, but after submitting, I expected the order confirmation page. However, I received the notice that the Harland Clarke check printing vendor site won't allow firefox to display the page. Without that confirmation page, I don't have an order number to reference. The instructions provided says to embed the link (which link?) in another tab to open the missing page. I've also tried following all other instructions; going on the Mozilla/Firefox desktop/ trying to find a Mozilla contact phone number, etc. All that happens is that I go into a never-ending circle - which means no-where. What am I missing? This is what I get:

Fix error “Website will not allow Firefox to display the page.” 3–4 minutes

Some websites don’t allow their content to appear inside another website. If a site tries to embed a page that blocks this, Firefox will show an error that it cannot open the page:

“To protect your security, [website] will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it.”

This is a security feature on the website being embedded. It prevents clickjacking, where a site tries to load another site without permission, often to trick users into clicking something they didn’t intend.

This error is not caused by Firefox. It’s a choice made by the website owner. Why does this happen?

Websites can control how their content is used. They may block it from being shown inside another site using special security settings like:

   X-Frame options headers
   Content security policy rules 

These settings are common for banking sites, schools, government services and others that need tight security. What can I do?

You can still view the blocked content by opening it directly. On desktop

   Right-click the link or embedded area.
   Select Open Link in New Tab or Open Link in New Window.
   If you can’t right-click, try copying the link (long-press on Mac trackpads) and pasting it into a new tab. 

Tip: You can also drag the link into a new tab if using Firefox on desktop. On mobile (phone or tablet)

   Tap and hold the link or embedded area (where the content should appear).
   Choose Open in New Tab from the menu.
   If that doesn’t work, try copying the link (if visible) and pasting it into a new tab manually. 

Warning: On mobile, this may be harder to do if the embedded content doesn’t show clearly. Look for a blank or gray box on the page. What if I need to use the original page?

Sometimes the website that’s embedding the content depends on that embedded page to work properly (for example, a school login system or internal portal).

If that’s the case:

   Try opening the embedded page directly (as described above).
   If that doesn’t help, you may need to contact the site owner and explain the issue. 

Need help understanding this error?

If you're unsure what the page is trying to load or can’t figure out where to click:

   Look for a blank box or missing content; that’s likely where the blocked page should appear.
   If you're on mobile, try rotating your device or zooming out to better view hidden content.
   Still stuck? Copy the page link and share it with your IT support, teacher or website admin.
