Firefox — Fora społeczności

I'm having trouble seeing all I need to see on Facebook and Ancestry.com whenever I get certain popup windows asking for input on my part. On Facebook this happens when I want to create an album of photos, and I cannot add all the ones I want before posting, and on Ancestry when I have to look at and accept certain results for my tree. This problem does not occur with Chrome, for example, which lets me scroll to the bottom with the popups on the right, but I cannot do it with Firefox, which is my default browser, the one I want to use on these two applications. There should be another scroll bar in Firefox to the right in each case, but it's not there, though it is present in Chrome, allowing me to scroll all the way down. Can this be fixed on Firefox, or do I have to use another browser for these aspects of these two applications?

The problem is illustrated in the first image attached: Google Maps shows no image, just solid black. This does not occur in browsers other than Firefox.

After restarting my laptop, the same problem persists, but on first going to the Google Maps website the usual image of my neighborhood flashes, then disappears to be replaced by the black.

The second attached image shows four possible causes and fixes offered by Google AI. I tried them all, and nothing made any difference. This image also shows that the thumbnail image appears when my cursor hovers over the tab in which Maps is open.

The only thing out of the ordinary I did before this problem occurred was browsing the Firefox Extensions on advice of Google AI to turn off the intrusive "Genius" AI pop-ups, but I didn't discover anything relevant and I don't think I made any changes.

I'd welcome any suggestions for what to try next,

after the last Firefox update the zynga game Farmville 2 will not load. It gives me a screen to fix mentioning chrome..but all efforts to manually fix referencing Firefox have failed. Odd that I can load the plain Zyngagames.com on Edge but it seems they too only load a "local" game that is not connected to any network. Help also mentions to make sure I allow to redirect but that "Options" feature to do so is not there. In fact it seems like the Firefox menu system is even much different and expanded. I will add the screens I have tried etc. Pop ups are allowed, turned off enhanced etc. but cannot find any reference to "third party redirects" Any suggestions are appreciated.

when i click the VPN icon it shows the get started page and when i click on it and log in it doesn't give me the option to turn it on, its the same get started page. it does that every time i press get started.

I believe that Firefox had a recent update which was auto implemented after-which my entire collection of saved passwords disappeared off of my Desktop computer. Over the next couple or more weeks I reconstructed many of the passwords and was heading back to normal. Today, for unknown reason my entire collection of saved passwords have again been erased and I do not know how and assume they are not recoverable so am back to square one. On my home computer I have it set to not allow auto updates and have a Firefox update waiting and hesitate to allow it, expecting the same result there to my saved passwords. Nothing significant has been done to or with my computer in this same time period so am at a loss as to why this happened not just once but now twice with cause unknown (I am unaware of any second Firefox update in the interim which could have caused this but cannot rule this out).

When searching for any type of URL or page on Firefox, unexpected things have been occurring. The most common action is that the Recent Browsing page opens up instead of the page I was seeking. I can get to that page by clicking the tab, but it obviously should not be happening. Sometimes, I only see a completely blank page in white or gray. Again, I can get to the page by clicking the tab. A momentary blink occurs regularly when going to a new page.

I have cleaned up any unused or unimportant extensions and add-ons, since that was suggested as one cause. So far I have not taken a suggestion to clear all cookies and cache because of all the beneficial browsing that deletes. I have also not totally deleted the Firefox app because I am not sure a reinstall of all of my bookmarks, the homescreen with my 32 preset URLs, etc. will come back.

So I am looking for advice on what steps I should take to resolve this, in order of first taking the least destructive and problematic actions. Thanks, Joe

I've been using the built-in firefox vpn and it has worked just fine, amazing actually, the best free vpn i've ever used. I've used it mostly to access Japanese contect, so Japan server, and now it's not working. it still show my ip, but if I change location to any other country it shows that country, so the issue is with the Japanese server.

I cannot find the new built-in VPN or any icon to add to my toolbar. It was offered to me after update 150 but it only brought me to the support page on how to add it to toolbar. The icon is not at upper right corner of browser. And I found no way via Customize Toolbar to add the new VPN to toolbar.

I installed Mozilla Firefox today as an alternative to Chrome. I imported all my bookmarks and history, then sat down to watch Netflix. However, I could not log into Netflix in Firefox. Just 10 minutes prior, I had been watching a show using Chrome, so I know that there is nothing wrong with my Netflix account. I began to read up on Firefox and netflix issues and feel like I have tried everything. I cleaned the memory cache (even though it was my first time trying to access Netflix on Firefox), I made sure the Widevine thing was installed and active, so Youtube works. DRM was enabled, no VPN, no extensions active, I tried troubleshooting mode and made a new profile - but no luck. It still said something went wrong. I went back to Chrome to watch some more Netflix without problems, then retried on Firefox.

Unsure what to try next. I get that I could just use Chrome, or even download Netflix. But at this point, I just want to solve the issue because it bothers me.

Thankful for any tips.

I am attempting to do a refresh (reinstall) of Firefox on W11. The download starts, but the the msg: "It looks like Firefox couldn't be installed. Choose OK to start over."

So, when I click on the VPN it has a button marked "Get Started", when I click on it it takes me to a page to sign in to my Mozilla account. When I sign into the account, it pops open the VPN box again and tells me I can now turn it on.

The problem is when the VPN box opens again it just gives me the 'Get Started' button again and it just loops back around to asking me to sign into my Mozilla account.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm trying to use the VPN, when I press the "get started" button in the toolbar for the VNP it tells me to log in. When i do it says "you are logged in" "turn on the VPN button in the toolbar to access the function. but when i try i get sendt back in an endless loop to the "get started page again". As I understand it's in Beta but my region (Sweden) should be supported.

My t-online-Password + my e-mail-adress are not accepted in Firefox. An other Browser just accepts them, cause they are valid, The same with my Avira-Password, it is claimed to be "wrong". On my new notebook Firefox now has become to unhandy for me and no: mostly I fill in the Password and my user name correctly and I am tired of trying again and again if I made a mistake while another Browser just accepts the correct Password, which always did work also in my firefox on my Desktop - because I do not fill them every time newly (and maybe wrong), they are saved and are being autofilled. It's a pity I cannt continue to work with firefox and have to switch to another Browser (or several others), because it is no fun to try for hours to find the cause for pass words that Firefox does not accept.

I'm unable to pay for services as it seems the popup from my bank notifying me to expect a text message with a validation code isn't appearing. I've unchecked "Block pop-ups and third-party redirects" restarted Firefox but still the same. This happens with multiple websites. I've also disabled some but not all of my extensions. Only recently started. Changed browser (MS edge) works fine.
