I have used Firefox for years, and especially since the ability to pin tabs was created. After this last update I experienced an issue on one website, which the tab is pinned, that was not present before. After putting things into my shopping cart, I click on the shopping cart and if the original tab is pinned then the shopping cart opens in a new tab. Before this latest update Firefox was smarter than that.

on using firefox for first time, get message

Firefox keeps locking up, for want of a better description. It will minimize itself, and when I go to click on it, it will not open/maximimize or let me use it. It then also won't allow itself to be closed (by using the only option available, the x on the taskbar icon). I end up having to restart my computer to get it to go away and then work properly (for a little while) when I restart. Firefox used to be my favorite browser, but I'm getting really frustrated. It's updated and still won't work properly. Help. Please.

I have a URL: https://gnpa.org. When that URL is used, FF or something is appending /#myaccount to it by something. i.e. https://gnpa.org/#myaccount It only happens on FF. How to fix? Thanks for any ideas.

Hi,

I've noticed that Firefox is no longer performing all the functions of some website. For example, when I use the Kaiser payment website, everything works until I enter my payment info. When I use the CA DMV app, it stops working after I enter the my username, password, and security code. In all cases, the website returns to the Login or Enter-Data screen. There are no error codes, just an endless loop of attempts to login or pay.

Firefox used to work on all of these websites. This error started happening on the prior-to-last update - currently on 135.0. It started happening before I updated my MacBook Pro to Sequoia 15.3. Still, the same thing happens on my Windows 10 HP laptop at work.

I am able to get full functionality on these websites when I use the Chrome browser. But, I like Firefox's functionality and security better! :-(

To Whom It May Concern:

I was able to login to ChatGPT before January 30, 2025.

I run Firefox on Windows 10. Currently I am using Firefox 135.0 which seems to be creating problems with Authentication Errors with ChatGPT.

Some extensions I had at the time are:

Firefox Multi-Container Tabs BitDefender Traffic Light AdGuard Terms of Service Didn't Read Print Friendly and MeasureIt.

These are all extensions I actually use.

And prior to January 30, 2025, I did not have a problem.

But ever since then I have not been able to login to ChatGPT due to Authentication Errors. I signed up using my email and password and never use anything else to login.

I am not using a VPN.

I cleared my Cache.

I disabled my Extensions.

I tried to login in a Private Window.

I even refreshed Firefox and it still would not work.

I have contacted ChatGPT's support team and they suggested I try a different browser and Chrome worked.

But I don't want to use Google if I can avoid it.

Please help me with this.

I use Firefox on all my computers and phone, because its ability to save my browsing history and sync across devices has been unparalleled. This is invaluable because a certain website I frequent has a nasty habit of eliminating and locking its pages. (I’ve asked them about it and they plan to continue doing this.) Without the exact link and all the metadata from my browsing history, I cannot retrieve those pages.

This past weekend when I went to recover a page, I discovered that FireFox has only six months of my history, not the many years I expected. I checked my pre-update profile, and it had no history either. I have some computers that have been offline for a few months so maybe they have versions old enough to still have my history.

How do I get my history back and how do I avoid FF destroying my history without my consent in the future?

Is there a way to make the popup that opens when you click on 'Manage Bookmarks' open up to a different folder than 'Other Bookmarks'? There is nothing in that folder. ever. Why cannot we open it to 'Bookmarks Menu'? or whatever? thanks, terry

Доброе время суток!

это папка C:\Users\Илья\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\v2zudvil.default-release\storage\to-be-removed постоянно растет, удалять ее приходится вручную, почему так происходит? и как это избежать 

последний раз, когда удалял, это папка занимала 52ГБ

I've been using Firefox for many years with no problems. Recently, there have been frequent tab crashes. I've noted this problem before, and sent reports, but no fixes ever seem to be forthcoming. This makes me question whether I should continue using Firefox. The times I've switched to Edge, it hasn't crashed.

For tab settings I have checked these: Open links in tabs instead of new windows When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately

In the past links opened in new tab immediately. But now some links open in SAME tab immediately. For example: I open https://www.pbs.org/livestream/ and start watching the livestream. When I click the link On Air Schedule It opens immediately in the same tab, which ends my livestream

Hello, I am using the current version of Firefox on my desktop PC (Windows 11 Home). I am using google as the search engine. I do not have any Mozilla, Google, or any other account information in Firefox. I have Firefox configured to NOT save any personal data. I have Firefox configured to delete ALL history (everything on the list) when I close Firefox.

When I select a link in the browser and it opens a new tab, I am asked for my google password. I don't have a google password to give it. I just close the request. This used to happen off and on "a while back" but stopped. It started again. Today, it has happened every time I open another website. It is driving me nuts.

I searched the web and found many similar complaints for this on the mobile version of Firefox. The suggested solution (disable "Close Private Tabs") does not appear to apply to the desktop version. If it does, I cannot find the setting.

I have tried restarting the browser. It didn't work. I have tried restarting the PC. It didn't work. I even tried turning the lights for my front porch off and back on again. It didn't work either!

Any ideas about what is causing this behavior or what I can do to make it stop?

BTW, I have two PCs in the house. Both are kept current regarding OS and application updates. Both have same OS. The behavior I described only happens on one of them...

I would appreciate any ideas you may have.

Still waiting for an answer to the above question. Why does the page jump back to the top when I want to open a link in a new tab? The link is halfway down a page but when I do a right/left click it jumps and invariably opens the link a few articles above the actual article I want to read. This had been happening for months now and nobody has bother to give a solution.

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with Google Voice in Firefox where I am unable to send DTMF tones (touch-tone signals) using the keypad during an active call. This means I cannot navigate automated phone menus (IVRs) or input PIN codes when required.

Issue Details:

   When I press the numbers on my keyboard or the on-screen dial pad during a call, no tones are recognized by the receiving system.
   The issue occurs only in Firefox. The same function works fine in other browsers like Chrome.
   I have confirmed that my microphone and audio settings are working properly.
   WebRTC is enabled (media.peerconnection.enabled = true in about:config).
   The issue persists even in a fresh Firefox profile with no extensions enabled.

I am using the version 115.20.0esr (64-bit) and have noticed I have links in my bookmarks, that are either from other bookmark folders but I never copied them over, or I have new links that I never clicked to be saved? I have deleted those I found but some more keep popping up?

I cannot open any web sites from the Mozilla Firefox on my computer. Every attempt gets the message :tab has crashed. Will I need to abandon using Firefox if this is an unfixable problem?
