Firefox Support Forum

I have a new laptop so needed to install an adblock. The search results page gave many choices. However, no matter which one I clicked on it said this page is not available in your region. Now how is that possible seeing as on my previous laptop and in the same region I could install the add on? I have had to use a VPN to install the adblocker. Please explain how regions prevent the installation and why it happens. Firefox is universal or so I thought.

Firefox will not load https://www.washingtonpost.com/ unless I clear my cookies. EVERY TIME!! EVERY TIME!! not just once. ALWAYS. I get a "secure connection failed" error. It comes up on other sites too, but this one is consistent. I am tired of clearing my cookies to read the paper each day or even a second time after the first time I load the page.

The interface fonts in my firefox are impossibly tiny

Specifically where it is an issue is when I go to bookmark a page - the menu interface is in TINY font and despite totally resetting firefox and creating a brand new profile etc etc

I have NOT been able to change it - I am at my wits end

I attach a screen shot to show you It also happens on the firefox home screen with frequently visited sites

PLEASE help me

Hi--is there a way to do this? My boyfriend accidentally deleted all my Firefox bookmarks last fall (hundreds), then restored the last backup from July, which he said for some reason was a lot larger than the most recent backup he saw, from October. (I hadn't deleted *that* many bookmarks between those two times, plus I had continued adding more, so I have no idea why the October file was so much smaller. Also, incidentally, I have no idea why there were no backups listed from the last one in July to the first one in October. I'm always actively adding and deleting bookmarks.) However, I made a ton of edits and additions to my bookmarks from July to October that I'd like to at least be able to access. I know I probably can't merge them with my current ones, but I'd at least like to be able to add them to what I have. I assume that if I could import these, they would appear in a separate folder, right? Thanks!

With the latest update, the scroll bar is too wide (1/2"-1") and I can't find a way to change it. It only happens in Firefox. All other programs and browsers are normal. I have tried going to "regedit' to change it, but it doesn't affect it at all. It's making Firefox almost unusable.

When I'm on a webpage and drag the URL onto the Bookmark Toolbar it's showing up as an URL instead of the page name like it used to.

For example: If I was on this page: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35895322/sources-cowboys-trade-texans-wr-brandin-cooks

Before the last update if I dragged that URL to the Bookmark Toolbar it would say: "Cowboys trade for Texans WR Brandin Cooks"

After the update it just shows the URL.

This makes it VERY hard to remember what each bookmark is.

Can anyone help me to bring this back to using the page name instead of the URL on this Toolbar?

I can view the barnes and noble website but cannot log into my account. Upon entering my login and password, I receive the following error message:"An unexpected error has occurred. Please refresh your page and try again. If this problem persists, please contact customer support." I have contacted B&N support and been told the problem is not on their end and to use a different browser because the issue "must" be a Firefox issue.

Since last update I can't open email with the mail in Firefox. Says it is being redirected...please help

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.

Hi, I use the Firefox Developer Edition for Windows Desktop (112.0b4 (64-bit) on daily basis. When I play the Udemy DRM content nothing goes wrong first and the browser loads the page well. But after some time passed I see that Firefox stops to load the page and the tab spinning infinitely. Pressing the realod button doesn't help. The only solution is to restart the browser. I use no-proxy setting. The refreshing of the browser didn't help either. I have configured the following options in the "about:config" but it didn't help as well: network.dns.disableIPv6 : true network.dns.disablePrefetch : true network.http.http3.enabled: false

With Windows 10 autofill with Firefox never worked for me even though the appropriate options were checked. I recently upgraded to Windows 11 and it worked! So happy. But that was only for about 2 weeks. And then a couple of days ago it stopped working. (Maybe from a Firefox update??) It's really frustrating and tedious even with the passwords being filled automatically when I start the login process with the user name. Is there anything that can be done?

I have a feeling I know the answer, but wanted to confirm. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to reset my PC. Upon doing that and downloading Firefox all of my data is gone. Bookmarks, saved logins, etc. all gone. I thought once I logged into my Firefox account everything would be there. I've logged into my account on other computers in the past and all my stuff was there but not this time. Now it's saying all of my stuff (profiles, etc) was created today. Is my stuff really gone forever? I thought the whole point of the Firefox account was so I could just login and have everything sync.

After the most recent update I can't get in to any of my Yahoo Mail accounts. I get a page that says:

The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to mail.yahoo.com.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I can log into my Yahoo accounts without a problem, only mail is broken. It works fine in MS Edge. I've cleared the cache and cookies and restarted both the Firefox Browser (ver 111.0) and Windows (11 Pro ver 10.0.22621).

Just upgraded to Firefox 111.0. Now my Yahoo! Mail will not load. Worked fine before.

Error: The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to mail.yahoo.com.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I changed nothing with the cookies...unless Firefox update did.

Hello Firefox tech support,

I'm emailing to you today about latest Firefox browser version 111.0 that was upgraded over March 17-19 weekend from previous version 110.0 or before. It caused PhotoEphemeris in difficult position on login issues as I could not login successfully.

I tried on different browser named Google, PhotoEphemeris will be able to login.

I may suspect new Firefox version 111.0 is the culprit for PhotoEphemeris login issue. If you roll back to 110 or previous version, PhotoEphemeris will work well including login. The website is www.photoephemeris.com

Thank you, George

I have used Firefox for a number of years and recently am having issues. I am not sure at this point if it is Firefox or Yahoo. I use Yahoo as my home page and my e-mail address. It keeps signing me out and then I cannot sign in without restarting the computer sometimes more than once. When Yahoo loads, it doesn't load the pictures, etc. that are normally to the left of the story headline. Facebook is the same way. I do have some add ons from Firefox and not sure if one of them is causing an issue. I cannot even talk to Yahoo as they will only help if you have a paid account - which I do not. I play some games on line and issues with those also. I really do not want to use Edge or anything else. I really like Firefox, but not sure what is going on. I have not changed any of my settings. Can someone please help me?

When I used to click on "new tab" on my old windows 10 computer, I could have the screen display about 3 rows of bookmarks with apps next to them . With my new computer--HP and windows 11, the "new tab" screen only displays only one row of about 8 bookmarks/apps and I can't add more. Why is that? How can I get the "new tab" to display more bookmarks/apps?
