Installing the latest version of Firefox and Debian 13.

Following the instructions in the Mozilla Support document Install Firefox on Linux https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux

Operating as Super User.

Chose the option Install Firefox .deb package for Debian-based distributions (recommended)

Steps 1, 2, and 3 worked exactly as expected with in a terminal and using bash.

Step 4 and 5, following the For Debian Trixie and Newer choice does not work. A lot of digging on the internet and found that the command beginning with cat <<eof needs to be cat <<’eof’. the second part of this process has same issue. appling new information solved problem both statements now work. < p></eof>

At this point you have a directory /etc/apt/keyrings. In this directory you have the file packages.mozilla.org.asc Step 3 returns success. You have also successfully applied steps 4 and 5. In directory /etc/apr/souces.list.d you have the file mozilla.sources.

It contains the instruction “Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.gpg”

No where in the previous stepd was the file Signed-By: packages.mozilla.org.gpg ever created.

Why is the deb package looking in /usr/share/keyrings when step 2 puts a similarly named file Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc in /etc/apt/keyrings

Step 6

Running apt update returns

Err:4 https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla InRelease  Sub-process /usr/bin/sqv returned an error code (1), error message is: Error: Failed to parse keyr ing "/usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.gpg"  Caused by:     0: Reading "/usr/share/keyrings/p ackages.mozilla.org.gpg": No such file or directory (os error 2)     1: No such file or directory (o s error 2) Warning: OpenPGP signature verification failed: https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla InRelease: Sub-process /usr/bin/sqv returned an error code (1), error message is: Error: Failed to parse keyrin g "/usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.gpg"  Caused by:     0: Reading "/usr/share/keyrings/pac kages.mozilla.org.gpg": No such file or directory (os error 2)     1: No such file or directory (os error 2) Error: The repository 'https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla InRelease' is not signed.

This is a follow up of previous posts. Note to Wxie & Denys

I am not a computer nerd I can only describe what is happening. I am addicted to puzzles and do them every day but am encountering problems nearly every day this week of the puzzle pieces not responding to mouse and have to shut down the computer. At other times I am kicked out of the site and returned to my desk top. No amount of trying to then get back into firefox is useless until much later on. Why is this happening?

I cannot add much to the description. I'll make the comment that having to look into the history to find a tab supposedly at hand is inefficient and a waste of time.

I want to upload the current version of Firefox. However, the system Administrator (who is me) will mnot allow me to do so. How do I change settings to allow for the upload.

There have been a reoccurring problem with Firefox that seems to show up in Linux, Windows, and MacOS. When I log into icloud, I get an error message that the icloud username and password is incorrect, even though the same password has been enter in Safari and other non-firefox browser without issue.

I have tried

• Run Firefox in safe mode.
• Clear icloud site data.
• Clear all Firefox browser data.

The only fix seems to be to create a new profile, which seems to point to a profile corruption issue. The problem is that the problem return after a while.

Hello, Firefox has been giving me some troubles lately and I can't figure out how to resolve the problem. Since I haven't found any way to consistently reproduce crashes, it is very hard for me to tell if Troubleshoot Mode also experiences the crashes, and the time I can spend doing that is very limited. As previously stated, it is very inconsistent, but relatively frequent, sometimes it crashes very soon and several times in a day, others it doesn’t at all. Sometimes it crashes with several tabs open, sometimes with only one; sometimes it crashes while using a webapp, others it does so on the newspaper page. It might be more frequent while there are Electron Webapps open, but it's more a hunch than anything, since sometimes it happens without those. I have followed the steps in: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-crashes-closing-or-quitting Been unable to find the cause so far. Here is the crash report ID from the latest crash: bp-60cd6ea9-9bd1-411d-a0ca-2f6fd0260415

The crash report does include information on my system, but please let me know if any other information might be useful.

Thank you very much in advance and I hope you're having a great day.

In Thunderbird, the "Play a Sound" feature has quit. I changed from 'Use the following sound file' to 'Default system sound for new mail' and back again. That didn't work. I tried changing the file in 'Use the following sound file'. That didn't fix it. I restarted Thunderbird and it was the same. I don't want to uninstall and re-install. Is there a fix?

Migrei do Windows para o Linux recentemente e preciso das pastas de e-mails e contatos do Outlook. Como importar ou converter arquivos pst do Outlook para o Thunderbird? Grato.

I've been trying to get Thunderbird and the home manager of Nixos to work nicely together. This seems to have been the case judging by the vast amount of config options that are present in the tool.

However, it seems development slowed and I was wondering whether there's a workaround to some of the problems. More precisely, nixos only does static configs - so things you know at compile time. This works great for credentials you know a priori like plain passwords or probably also encrypted password but it starts to fail once tokens start getting involved like with oauth2 (any most likely also Kerberos).

Since home manager in nix does not know the the token, it can only populate the account half way. The rest is subsequently handled by Thunderbird itself, asking you to perform the OAuth flow.

Here are two distinct issues. 1. If I create the "wrong" account - plain password instead of oauth2 - and I update the account to oauth2. Even with a restart of the entire system, Thunderbird doesn't understand that it needs to perform the authentication flow again. Even if I delete any passwords Thunderbird has stored in it's password manager. 2. I have a bunch of email accounts, work, private, university. I would like to keep them separate [...]. However, suppose I have three mail boxes within my university domain and I added all of them in this incomplete fashion as I outlined (everything done except password / authentication), Thunderbird will perform the OAuth2 flow for the first mailbox but the it won't do it for the other two. I just get

The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for account ethz-main responded: Command Error. 12.

for the other two mail boxes.

I'm well aware that a big contributor to this issue is NixOS and Home Manager. And I'm in touch with these parties trying to find a solution. What I wanted to ask from the Thunderbird / Mozilla community:

Is there a way to reinitialize the OAuth2 flow or password prompts for any account from the UI or alternatively from the shell? Because deleting the credentials didn't start it (well at least in my case) and I would like to find an explicit way to tell Thunderbird "for account x, please ignore all authentication info you have, perform the auth flow again and then update the auth details with whatever response you got." I'd prefer to be able to things like this rather than deleting and adding the account again. Especially considering that across all Accounts I have about 30Gb of data needs to be fetched every time.

Thank you for your Response and Support

I am using version 140.9.0esr-bb20 (64-bit) 

There are three categories of messages I want to filter: 1. Messages where the Subject contains a known word.

   Action: delete  before downloading from POP server

2. Messages from senders not in my address books.

   Action: Move to Junk-folder [and if possible: only download header AND delete them from the server once they have been cleared manually from the junk folder]

3. Everything else

   Action: download the full message to inbox

I'd like to know the settings for __Each message filter __ Check for new messages every 1 minutes __Automatically download new messages __Fetch headers only and anything else that is needed.

I thought I could achieve this out by turning off "Automatically download new messages" and turn on "Fetch headers only". Then, explicitly ask to FETCH FROM SERVER in the filter to get the full messages or "DELETE FROM POP server" as needed. "Check for new messages every 1 minutes" is always on, so I assumed that the filters will be applied every minute. Instead, what I am seeing is that nothing happens, as if "Check for new messages every 1 minutes" does not even work. However, when I do a manual "Get Messages", things seem to work (mostly). If I check "Automatically download new messages" the 1-minute action do occur except everything gets downloaded, regardless of the "DELETE FROM POP server" filters. So it seems I misunderstand these setting. 

Any hints on how to get the requirements done will be appreciated

I don't really want to disable storage or ALL cookies. But I DO want to COMPLETELY sanitize on shutdown. While this policy is effective AND network.cookie.noPersistentStorage in config has been set True, NEITHER stops Persistent Storage nor cleans it. ONLY manual cleaning (deletion) of persistent storage is available in Settings: Privacy & Security: Manage browsing data. There is no other option available that I can find. One solution suggested a setting that both disallowed cross-site cookies AND isolate other cross-site data but there is no setting like that. There are TWO separate settings for that. Besides, that is not what is wanted.

How can I either completely disable persistent storage - or, more preferred is to completely clear persistent storage upon quitting?!

I have everything else cleared on quitting but persistent storage is indeed persistent. If I have to, I will disable it completely (not preferred) but do NOT want to disable ALL storage use.

Why doesn't network.cookie.noPersistentStorage not work? Or, if it does, what does it actually do?

I would like a policies.json entry for this as I already employ the file in /etc/firefox/policies as described. This is the preferred method for multiple users.

I am using Ubuntu and Firefox Snap for Ubuntu 149.0.2 (64-bit). Let me know if other information is needed. Thank you.

Hey there Mozilla team, Love the new free built-in VPN for the browser and Kit. :D But I have problems with enabling the VPN. I am on Linux Kubuntu and the VPN cannot start. Funnily enough when i turn on Mozilla VPN on device level the Browser VPN does manage the enable itself.

Also I have a question about the Mozilla VPN browser extension. Is support for Linux still being worked on? And could we see the support being implemented soon?

Have a wonderful Day

I am running Firefox on Kubuntu, which means it comes pre-installed as a Flatpak.

I was having problems with various web sites so I decided to try using the version of Firefox installed with the file found here - https://www.firefox.com/en-US/thanks/

There were no problems with the install. This version of Firefox showed the same issues as the Flatpak version, so I blame the web sites.

Now I have two versions of Firefox. I would like to remove this second version but all the methods I've found do not remove it. I can certainly disable it by renaming the directory created in my user directory /Firefox. Trouble is, shortcuts I created to web sites always launch this version rather than the Flatpak version and I can't find a way to get the shortcuts to use the Flatpak version.

AV1 Hardware Acceleration stopped working. In about:support->Media->Codec Support Information Firefox states that Harware Decode AV1 is supported but it uses only Software Decoding. AV1 worked perfeclty before in Firefox, is still working in other browsers and apps in my system.

I am using TB 140.9.0esr (64-bit) on Kubuntu 25.10 but this has been true for some years. Mostly when a start a new Email address whether in the To:, cc: or bcc: fields TB does a very good guess after a few letters about the address I want. However, every so often, perhaps 5% of the time it will pick the correct person but I won't notice that it has picked an old address for that person. It seems to happen in bursts, so three times in the last few hours for two different addressees. I realise that I could shift the old addresses for people to the notes section of the address book but I would rather not as I am hoping that one day TB will have the ability to search for all Emails to/from someone across all the addresses they ever had, current or deceased. Is there a way you can stop TB suddenly changing its guesses about the addresses for a person? Or could you add a way to tell TB in the address book that addresses are dead and should never be offered as addresses to send to?

TIA,

Chris

I've disabled HTTPS only mode. When i enter a local http://server.localdomain server Firefox upgrades that to https://server.localdomain. How do I disable that?

replaced a windows 10 laptop with a Linux Mint 22.3 laptop. Used Sync to transfer profile to the new laptop. Logged into the banking account (BECU.org) successfully. When trying to transfer money from checking to savings, the transaction failed with a statement that the date was invalid. The date was valid. A separate Linux Mint computer that never had a windows profile synced does not show this problem. Disabling all extensions did not fix this problem.
