youtube: Ad blockers violate YouTube's Terms of Service - i have no adblockers (extensions) on this NEW (installed 10/19/23) firefox on imac or on my macbookpro (which still allows me to watch youtube).

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

Recently I signed up for a new internet and wifi provider, Xfinity. My house has several devices including 4 TVs, my laptop, and multiple cell phones and they ALL connect to Xfinity. BUT, my main I Mac computer will NOT connect. So I have also been paying for Century Link because I use this computer for work.

I have tried several things and now wonder if Firefox is permitting it to connect (according to my mobile app internet IS connecting to the computer).

Can someone help?

I have a new iMac (sonoma): I've migrated previous data to this machine and updated Firefox, but saved passwords are having problems. Some of my paid subscriptions are not letting me sign in, either through saved pws, or doing it manually. A few others seem to work okay. I've tried a few on Safari, where they work, so I suspect I have to change a setting in Firefox. But what? Any advice gratefully received.

This feature has suddenly appeared and I absolutely detest it! I don't need it, don't like it, don't want it! I have searched everywhere on how to disable it. PLEASE tell me there is an option to do that.

Latest update (10/2/24) is impossible to use. How can I get back the prior version for Mac OS Sonoma 14.6.1 on my Macbook Air?

I have a TBI that really limits my ability to process information. The tabs now have a dropdown that is very confusing and gets in the way of my working. I have to shut Firefox and leave the computer, but of course when I am recovered from the confusion, I come back to the same situation.

I was able to find a way to stop the even-more-frustrating dropdown video preview, but it's not enough.

I have relied on FF for years, but it seem that putting more bells & whistles is more important than providing a functional browser interface. Please explain to me in plain English how to remove the overloaded browser and revert to a version I can utlize without a breakdown.

After the most recent update of FF on Mac OS Sequoia, suddenly I am no longer able to login to either of my routers, because they require http and FF keeps forcing https.

This results in no login gui but instead an ‘unable to connect’ error message.

I have researched and tried every conceivable fix and nothing works (settings, about:config, cookies, cache, all of it.

I would have expected that simply adding exceptions in settings would work, but it simply doesn’t.

I can login via Safari, so this is clearly a FF issue. It even happens in Safe Mode.

Kind of at my wits end. Anyone have a fix.

I want to be able to view inline PDFs in the browser, and download PDFs sent as attachments, without opening them in Firefox. I've searched the forum, tried different combinations of download settings and toggling `browser.download.open_pdf_attachments_inline` but no dice, either Firefox downloads every file (inline or attached), or it opens the local file in the browser.

I respect that the PDF viewer in Firefox is great, and I want to keep using it when I choose. Right now, I have a download progress that pops up, then the browser becomes unresponsive and switches to the new tab, which is disrupting.

Seems simple but how can I have the following behaviour? - Inline PDF -> view in browser - Attachment -> download without opening in browser

I recently bought a new computer and synced my Firefox profile. Bookmarks and other items have synced, but only two of my add-ons (extensions) are syncing from the old computer. I'd love to be able to sync them all especially because one of the add-ons is no longer available and I use it frequently. Is there a different way to bring the extensions form the old computer to the new one?

Thank you for your help.

I contacted Apple and they couldn't fix Firefox not working on my MacBook Pro (error: page can’t be displayed, server error). This started after I upgraded to iOS Sequoia 15.0. I disabled my VPN and also reinstalled the Firefox app and it is still not working. Apple says Mozilla may need to release a new update. Please advise what you or I can do to fix the issue. Note: I can access the Firefox page using Safari and Edge so it’s not an internet connection issue.

After recent update bookmarks disappeared. When I restore them and then close firefox developer edition the bookmarks toolbar is gone again. It seems like a bug in that recent update. Please advise.

whenever i try to open reddit it doesn't open though it takes me back to firefox homepage, i refreshed firefox and removed all the extensions but it still isn't working i have a macbook 2020 air retina and it works fine but this troubleshooting problem persists, please take a look into this

USING: Mac Sequoia 15.0 and Firefox 130.0.1

This started when I updated to OS15.0. I usually keep many Firefox windows open and park them on the dock when I'm not using them...they have always been visible on my dock. After opening Firefox, I see all the windows load, then disappear into the Firefox app on my dock. I can't find or retrieve them, so I don't know where they are. Weird and frustrating! Any suggestions??

Recently, I lost the ability to sign into my bank account using Firefox on my iMac. Thankfully, I kept Safari on my iMac. It works fine. What can I do to use Firefox to check my bank account again?

Hello, I have installed the Sequoia update on my iMac. Since the installation most of the font I use, especially if they are bold/italic... or using a font converter, appear in square shapped instead of text. This is only related to Firefox as it does no appear on any other browser I have opened the websites. I have cleared cookies and cache, but nothing works and weird fonts still appear (attached). Thank you for your help!

I regularly use Google, Firefox or Chrome, to search for a site, go to site. I want, on my IMac, to erase any trace of my search, anything associated with this site. Thank you

I have not noticed this before upgrading my Mac to Sequoia 15.0, using latest Firefox browser update, but "printing to PDF" which I used in the past extensively, makes a PDF file that causes the letters to be one ASCII number off. So if I type into the "search" field "p", then all the "o's" are highlighted. I can only enter a search term if I usean "ASCII number +1" technique, so I can search for "get" by typing in "fds". Numbers are searched for as in the past. This is not happening if I make a PDF using my Safari browser, all the PDF words are correct and searchable as in the past. Anyone have insights as to why this might be occurring? I will try restarting in "safe" mode and re-downloading Firefox as is suggested in some of the articles here. Thanks!
