Firefox Community Forum

In the standart view of a video, the feature works, but not in fullscreen. In Chrome it also works in fullscreen. Firefox should have support for it since v126 or so, im on v145

After a re-start, my Firefox browser on a Dell laptop lost all history and has since also not been collecting websites visited. When opening a new tab, the shortcuts and recently visited websites are also gone and no longer being collected. My CCleaner recently updated itself to a new version but I unchecked the delete history for Firefox (which treacherously is clicked by default - I fell into that trap before). Happy to blame the new CCleaner but that would not explain why history is not being collected now - to me the fault seems to lie with Firefox instead. Another possibility that went through my mind: Is Microsoft sabotaging users of Windows 11 to force them to buy new? PS: Under "Privacy", "History", the setting is "Firefox will remember history", as it always has been and should be. But it has forgotten all previous history and it is no longer collecting any new history either!

Hello

I'm facing a frustrating problem. I asked an AI the following:

Firefox Developer Edition (v145.0.2) on Windows 11 host machine can play udemy.com videos but Firefox Developer Edition (v146.0b9) on Windows hyper-v virtual machine cannot.

I suspect the cause is due to either settings or the virtualisation Hyper-V. Other browsers (Edge, Brave) on the virtual machine can play udemy.com videos with no problems.

Gemini said: This is likely caused by a specific change introduced in Firefox Nightly/Beta (v146) regarding how it handles video decoding on Windows.

The Short Answer: Firefox v146 enabled FFmpeg-based hardware video decoding by default on Windows (previously it relied almost exclusively on Windows Media Foundation). This experimental feature often conflicts with the virtualized graphics drivers (Hyper-V Video) used in your VM, causing the player to fail (black screen or error) while audio might still work or the player simply refuses to load.

Is this true?

For MONTHS now I have been UNABLE TO LOG INTO MY DAM BANK! Every time I try to log in I get BOOTED TO THE "SECURE SIGN UP" PAGE & i AM SICK TO DEATH OF SEEING THAT DAM PAGE! I've gone through my settings, I can find anything that would prevent me from logging in, Another problem is that I'm going BLIND I have a lot of trouble seeing the page or reading what's on it. Trying to fill in a check, an envelope or anything else that reqires me to write is almost impossible now. WHere can I find the responce to my qestions, I have been unable to find where it's HIDING.

my interenet provider server is in a differnt state to where i live and my mozilla firefox detects my location to where my server is located and NOT where I am physically located

how can i force the active tab to show? i am fairly sure this feature was in a previous edition. I have a large number of tabs and sometimes an app or video will start and i am forced to go back and forth thru all the tabs just so i can stop them.

Hi,

I'm using Containers to switch between four different workloads, three companies and personal things.

However, if I have a tab opened with a host that is common to two or more containers, i.e. Google Drive, Firefox will continuously duplicate the tab and ask if I'd like to "Open this site in your assigned Container?"

The tab in the attached image is already opened with the document, but despite that Firefox will duplicate the tab, asking the above question. If I pass some time without visiting the group where the tab is, I have to sometimes close tenths of such tabs.

Any help is appreciated, Containers are amazing but it's really bothersome to have to keep closing tabs all the time.

When I right-click on a website and choose "send page to device", I get the notification "Sent!", but nothing actually happens on my other device. Yes, I am logged in with the same sync account on both devices.

When I access a specific website the .css files hosted at http://cdn.ct-static.com/ don't load. The Network Tool console indicates that they time out. I have been told this is usually a network setup issue however if I use the MS edge browser the site loads. How do I troubleshoot this?

Firefox just updated today and wiped all of my bookmarks and passwords. I need them to be restored as it included my login information for vital personal services such as my online banking, health information, etc. I hadn't saved this information anywhere else.

The passwords seem to have been stored in a login.json file, however, copying that file into my Firefox profile folder doesn't restore them.

Any help would be desperately appreciated.

Hello Mozilla team,

I recently received an update for the latest version of your browser and installed it. However, all of my bookmarks appear to be missing. I have an HTML backup of my bookmarks stored on a USB drive, but when I attempt to import it into the updated browser, I receive a message stating that the file is not recognized as a bookmark file and cannot be uploaded. This is unusual, as I am able to import the same HTML file on other computers and browsers without any issues.

I also tried using the “Sync” function to restore my bookmarks, but this did not work either.

Could you please advise on how I can resolve this issue?

Regards, James

I don't have a way to manage payment methods - the article in Support doesn't match what I see in Settings. I was able to add a new credit card while using a website but I can't delete the old one.

Hello  I have read all the recovery related articles in the help section of the site and if there was a way to recover, I have tested it. I ask my question once again:  How is it possible that after I log in to Mozilla Firefox and sync my account, instead of recovering the information, all of it is deleted from other connected devices as well? I didn't even have time to make any changes in the sync menu and my account, and as soon as the sync was done, instead of recovering the information on the device that I had just synced, the information was deleted from my old devices such as my Android mobile phone, without my intervention. This is a very big and important problem and rest assured that there is no explanation in the help section about this. Please understand the problem and refrain from sending me links to re-read all the articles I've read.
