When I download Firefox initially I am able to set the home page the way I want with the shortcuts I use. After a few weeks the shortcuts disappear and the only way to get them back is to delete Firefox and reinstall. I am also not able to save bookmarks anymore. This has the same resolution methods.

This has happened 3 times already.

What the title says. Firefox just isn't playing any sound whatsoever.

Troubleshooting:

  • Volume mixer indicates that Firefox is using my speakers, along with all other apps. When playing a YouTube video, the green bar is not bouncing. However, all other programs that play sound do so successfully and their green bars are bouncing (see attachment).
  • Other web browsers play sound successfully.
  • Restarting Firefox and my computer did not help.
  • Switching the default sound device and changing back did not help.
  • Changing to headphones made no change.
  • Tabs are not muted.
  • Autoplay settings in about:preferences showed that audio and video were disabled, however changing this setting to allow video and audio, then restarting both Firefox and the computer did not fix the problem. I have no idea how that setting was even changed to begin with. O_o
  • Started Firefox in troubleshooting mode; still no sound.
  • Started Firefox in a different profile; still no sound.
  • Started Firefox in private mode; still no sound.
  • Tried ending the audiodg.exe process in task manager and restarted; still no sound.
  • Double checked media.autoplay.blocking_policy, was set to 0.
  • Double checked media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground -- changed from true to false, restarted Firefox; still no sound.
  • Disabled hardware acceleration; still no sound.
  • Refreshed Firefox; still no sound.
  • Complete uninstall, including the usage of BCUninstaller to uninstall "leftovers". Reinstalled. Still no sound.

I have Apollo installed on my computer and I've reached out to them before for similar issues, but the dev was insistent that Apollo does not cause sound issues. I'm somewhat sceptical, but they're not being helpful at all so I thought I'd ask here, and disclose usage of Apollo so that all bases are covered.

Thank you for your time.

Hi, I'm trying to open pages in my old HP Mediasmart. I can access the NAS on my netwark but when I try to open most icon I get PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR.

I have my security software paused. Does this mean the NAS can't be used anymore?

I use Windows 10Pro, an Asus modem and I'm connect to the NAS by ethernet.

Of course happy to provide more details on request.

Cheers, John

I am using Firefox on Win 11, recently I have noticed a weird problem, on Ebay for example when a listing uses a drop down selection box for sizes, amounts etc none of them work for me, I click on the box and down arrow but nothing. I also went on to the Vodafone site to top up my phone but I was unable to do it as the drop down box to select the amount was empty. I have tried clearing my cache and even reloading Firefox but nothing seems to work, I just tried using Edge as well but its the same, suggesting that its maybe something to do with my settings?

I recently switched to a new laptop and signed in to Firefox Sync. Bookmarks and passwords restored fine, but tabs didn’t reopen. I had important pages saved from sites like medithrivehub.com for product research, and I really need them back.

Is there a way to recover synced tabs that didn’t show up automatically? Any help would be appreciated.

I am not sure if 'settings' is the correct category. I have a large sum of money waiting to be claimed at bitcoin. When I attempt to log into my account there, I get this:

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to bitprotrust.cc. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

The funds I am attempting to claim are over $100,000.00. Is there any way that I can get past this error message and reach the bitcoin people? I have 24 hours to collect, starting late yesterday (July 7).

Thank you, Martha Gillam: P.S. I have looked at the information provided below. I am NOT a geek, and it makes no sense to me. Please tell me in plain English how I can bypass the filter that says I cannot reach these people.
