Just recently I was able to click on a notification and it would add a tab to Firefox and go to the URL in the popup. For some reason it stopped working. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hello,

In Firefox on macOS 13 Ventura, links clicked in Google Sheets docs.google.com/spreadsheets/ or in web.telegram.org open in a new window instead of in a new tab :(

If you have any idea why (in Firefox on Windows 11 I don't have this issue :)

Thanks a lot!

Hello, I will try to explain as best as I can.

In our web app, for authentication, we manually set our cookies (document.cookie = cookie) after receiving the tokens from the login request. We work with 2 cookies, 1 for the access and 1 to refresh the access one if it expires. The refresh cookie has a longer time to expire.

When we login on a fresh session with no cookies at all in the storage tab in the dev tools, all is fine. I actually tested this by setting a random cookie and then using the debugger to add a breakpoint on the very next line of code and then typing document.cookie in the console and it is present.

The problem appears when trying to login after the cookies expired. They are still present in the storage tab in the dev tools. Somehow, manually setting the cookies again doesn't actually set the cookies or it takes some time and our app is stuck on the login page because it doesn't pass our checks that it actually has the access cookie. Using the same test described above, re-setting a cookie that expired and using the debugger again to add a breakpoint on the very next line of code and then typing document.cookie in the console does not show the cookie.

This issue does not reproduce on other browsers and it started with version 116.0.3.

For a more step by step to reproduce the issue: 1. Use document.cookie = cookie with a expiry time of 20 seconds 2. Wait for 20 seconds to pass 3. Set the same cookie again 4. Use the debugger to set a breakpoint after setting the cookie 5. Type document.cookie in the console whilst in the breakpoint pause 6. The cookie doesn't show in the document.cookie call

Hi

When you highlight a line or something you want to search, once you highlight and copy it. After you do, byou can go in and delete what you just copied and searched for. Problem I'm having, is that it deletes from the area that saves them, but if you go to the search bar, it is still available there, even though I had deleted it.

Please look into this

Thank you

Yesterday my son had issue with FFox and uninstalled and re-installed. Upon doing this all my other firefox instances lost their pinned sites on the home page.

is there a way to configure a firefox instance as the bastion of truth, so that all other instances sync to it? and it asks before it makes changes?

Or even better after a sync have a list of what changed, and perhaps an undo.

Hi all,

I noticed a kinda strange behaviour on one of my devices with FF install. On a sigle host (Windows 10, FF v. 118.01 but the issue was present also on previous versions) after every automatic FF update history, cache, cookies and accesses are cleared, which force me to login in again everywhere; also some extensions are affected (Bitwarden). This behaviour is manifesting only on a single device of mine, on every other after FF update accesses etc. are kept. I tried to look around in settings but I didn't find anything related. Have somebody experienced the same problem? Is there any settings (maybe properties under about:config) that can change this behaviour?

Thanks

Firefox is leaving behind a small window/artifact that cannot be closed through task manager. You can move any other application such at outlook or even a chrome browser to hide the window, but it will stay on top of any Firefox window that is placed on that monitor. I have disabled and enabled use of GPU, and ran a refresh from the troubleshooting section. He is running Inspiron 15 3511 windows 10. Any other ideas out there? See attached picture.

Whenever I launch Firefox, I get the error message "Firefox couldn't update automatically. Download the new version - you won't lose saved information or customisations." I download and install the .dmg for the new update, but I still get this error message whenever I launch Firefox. I used to be able to have updates installed automatically without requiring to manually download each Firefox version. Could someone please assist? Details below:

Firefox version: 117.0.1 (64-bit) MacOD: Ventura 13.5.2

Many thanks :-)

Updated to SONOMA yesterday. Since then, with VPN (PIA) on, Firefox will not connect to any website, or websites do not appear normal. Even signing up to post this question here without the VPN on took longer (BAD GATEWAY; Error; No Access) for whatever reason... This never happened before.

Is anyone else having issues with thew new operating system SONOMA, with VPN and without, on Firefox?

Help

/edit: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to Firefox section as you have macOS.

Get this error when I try to open either gmail or yahoo mail. Did not connect: Potential Security Issue Firefox detected a potential threat and did not continue to mail.yahoo.com because this website requires a secure connection. I get the same for gmail.

I am using Firefox 115.3 on Debian 12.1. I have numerous tasks which require the use of my web browser and have allocated a different virtual desktop for each. This means that my browser session typically has several dozen tabs open in numerous windows at one time. Under normal circumstances, this works just fine (and is a testament to the engineering that has gone into this browser).

My issue is that Firefox renders my machine virtually unusable for a few minutes each time I restart my desktop session due to focus stealing. When I open the browser, several dozen windows pop up (as expected) and relocate to their correct virtual desktops (as expected); however, as the windows begin to load, the most recently active Firefox window steals focus repeatedly. If I am, for instance, in the process of typing my password into my desktop e-mail client, a Firefox window may steal focus from the password dialog. In practice, this focus steal happens once every few seconds for several minutes.

I would prefer that Firefox would not steal focus while restoring a session. Does anyone have any suggestions for correcting this issue?

Im trying to login into web.newton.co When I click the FingerPrint or Face recognition option Use fingerprint or face recognition to login

Press the button below and follow your browser's steps to log in. I get asked for my PIN. I clicked the option "I forgot my PIN (see screen shot) i get the You Can Reset your pin. it's instructing me to go to Settings/Accounts/Signin Options in Firefox.

But when I go to Settings in FF I see no such a thing...thoughts? Rob
