This issue just started recently, say within the past 2 weeks Mid September forward.

Only happens in Firefox, Chrome not having an issue. Open Facebook tab and it opens fine then after 10-30 seconds, it crashes with this error "This page isn't available right nowThis may be because of a technical error that we're working to get fixed. Try reloading this page."

Have disabled all extensions, cleared cache multiple times with no success.

Appreciate any other suggestions on fixing as I'm not a big fan of Edge. Old school. lol

Thanks - Dan

I have Privacy & Security set to Strict with Cookies and Site Data deleted when the browser is closed with only 3 sites in the exclusion tab. I also use a VPN to assist with masking and for connections to defined systems and as part of that I will randomly set it to different countries 'because I can'.

I was looking at the website for the current Rugby World Cup (https://www.rugbyworldcup.com) but it was showing the wrong times for the matches. A little digging showed it had remembered my location from some point last week when the VPN was active and set to Iceland.

There is nothing I can find in my browser settings to permit this and I would appreciate pointers to check further since one of the reasons I have set the higher level of restrictions in my browser is to stop this kind of activity from websites.

Hello,

Google Drive today stopped loading properly. I keep getting the rotating circle or "working" in the lower left corner of the browser window. I can get it to load fine in Safari and Chrome.

Docs and sheets I already had open, I seem to be able to interact with and edit normally. But navigating the main file path in Google drive, opening folders, and opening files isn't working.

I would really prefer to not switch browsers, as my entire workflow is set up on Firefox.

Suggestions?

Thanks, Sarah

I know this probably sounds odd but I'm not imagining it. I like many people I live with many tabs open at once. Since the 143 update I come back to my computer the next morning and many of my tabs, specifically my gmail tab and many others will not work. (Oddly I've noticed some random tabs will still work, I have no idea why) I can close the tab and try to reopen gmail in a new tab and it just sits there trying to open but it will not. I've waited 20 minutes. Not until I close firefox and restore my last session will it again work properly. Is there a bug/glitch or is there some setting I need to adjust. I don't want to have to close my firefox everyday. Edge is not having this same issue, so I'm pretty sure it's not a problem with my specific machine. It's like Firefox just decides to quit when I go to bed. I know it sounds crazy.

I've usede Safari for years, but want to try Firefox. I've tried to import data, bookmarks and so from safari, but can't do it. Firefox says: Select the Safari file. But which one? And where do I find it? I've find the app Safari – but there's a lot of files underneath it.

Hello, I have ran into issues with the file upload window in firefox locking the program. I am not quite sure if I have tried uploading anything since the last update a few days ago, but it happens regardless of the website I use. It basically just freezes up as soon as it opens the file explorer window. I tried on chrome with no issues so it doesn't seem to be a windows thing as far as I can tell. I restarted my pc to see if that would help, but with no luck. I opened up task manager when this was happening to check what was going on and firefox seemed to be stuck using almost all the ram on my system 15.7 out of 16gb.

Anyone have this issue occurring in the last few days? Any thoughts on how to fix?

Thanks for any help

Hello. Are there Keyboard shortcuts for options, especially one for opening the tab context menu ?

The page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-context-menu could be ameliorated by indicating the potential equivalents. eg : CTL+t is equivalent to "New Tab" option (should this be exact). Regards. Cap

I think when Mozilla was formed, it received all the assets of the former Netscape Communications corp, yes?

I tinker with some VMs running vintage OSes, including DOS+Win 3.1, and Linux distro releases from the 90's and early 2000's. I'd like to, for example install Netscape 1.x or 2.x on Win 3.1 and Debian Hamm 2.0.

I am wondering if Mozilla has a download archive somewhere with historic releases like Netscape 1.x through 4.x for all platform for which builds were originally released?

I've used the community here and I get 4 year old answers, some of which do not fir the current settings lists, those do not help. I have tried everything and the only thing that works is to force the new tab by right clicking and forcing open in new tab.

In settings, it says Your browser is being managed by your organization. I clicked it and it led me to the policies page. In there it says Policy Name- Certificates, Policy value- ImportEnterpriseRoots and then true. I neither work in an organisation, nor I have any antivirus in my computer. Why is this happening?

Hi, I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro (running Sequoia 15.6.1) to the Firefox desktop app 143.0.1 (aarch64). Google Drive, which is my company's file-sharing and collab platform, no longer allows me to open and edit documents unless I clear my cache on a daily basis, which is not a sustainable workflow. I either get stuck on "loading" (see screenshot) or the file opens but I cannot edit it. I've also turned off Enhanced Tracking Protection (see screenshot).

I love the Firefox browser and hate to leave it but I'm at my wits' end. Hoping someone can help - thanks!

After an update on F***fox meant I could not access my emails or radio programmes, etc, etc, I reverted F***fox and refused to update it daily. Now it has updated itself and I have lost all my bookmarks, hundreds of them. WTH have you criminals done?

I have had a subscription to sacbee for 15 years, starting a month ago it won't open. I think it is a security issue. https://eedition.sacbee.com/shortcode/LMCSAC

I can't login to my AARP.org account using Firefox, even after clearing cookies and site data. However I can login using Chrome. What is the fix for this?

My PC is new and using Windows 11 Home Edition.

Dear Mozilla Firefox Support,

I am seeking clarification and assistance regarding saved login details that appear in my Firefox browser, both on my laptop.

The situation is as follows:

At some point in the past, I mus thave attempted to access the Plenty of Fish (POF) dating site via the app on my iPhone. Alhtough not presently active, my iCloud account shows a history of the app being downloaded, and stored in the cloud.

I do not recall ever completing an account setup or using the service, but when I check Firefox on my laptop, I can see a username and password saved under Privacy & Security settings for POF.

I am trying to understand whether these saved credentials could have been synced between my iPhone and my laptop at the time of the attempted registration, meaning that they were stored automatically even if I did not intentionally log in on my laptop.

My specific questions are:

Do the Firefox saved logins on my laptop and my iPhone interlink automatically if Firefox Sync is enabled? (i.e., would login data entered on my phone app/browser be stored in the Firefox passwords list on my laptop?)

Is it possible to determine whether the saved username/password for POF was stored via the iPhone app/browser rather than being typed directly on the laptop?

I belive that if login attempts fail due to a non-existent or corrupted username/password, Firefox still store the login attempt details (username and password) even if the login itself did not succeed, can you confirm this? Is there a way of telling which it was failed/sucessful

This is a sensitive and personal matter, and I would greatly appreciate your guidance and any clarification on how Firefox may have stored or synced these details.

Thank you for your support.

Kind regards, A

Hi, it looks like Firefox pushed an update on September 19, and after that, all my tabs were closed, I got logged out of all my accounts, and it opened a new blank Firefox window. Is there any way to recover my tabs and data?
