I have Sequoia 15.5 on a 2021 MacBook Pro and have always used FF as my browser. Now, I can't get it to do much more than open. Nothing new happened that I know about, except updates to "Malwarebytes" I have some computer knowledge but not a lot. TIA.

The Atlantic.com site says: as below, this was not the case in the past. Similarly with the NY Times I did not have this problem before I went on vacation on 10 June. Neither tech support can help. This problem does not occur if I use EDGE

Why have I been blocked?

This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks. The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data.

For the NY Times site, I get the following for some but not all articlesarticles

You have been blocked from The New York Times because we suspect that you're a robot. Why am I seeing this? There are a few possibilities:

   You are browsing and clicking much faster than is typical of a human being
   Something is preventing Javascript from working on your computer
   There is a bot with the same IP address as you

I've been trying to play multiple videos at once, but when I pause one, it pauses all of them, and vice-versa. I'm not sure if this is a settings or config issue. I've tried disabling all extensions, and the issue persists. It's frustrating having the background music pause every time I have to pause a lecture to write some notes down.

I prefer to use Firefox with WordPress when coding. I use an important plugin that gives me SCSS fubctionality that used to work without issue in Firefox until recently. The problem is conflicting keyboard shortcuts, namely tab selection "command + option + up arrow", and "command + option + down arrow" (on a Mac). I would like to reassign them, or better yet, set them to "false" as i never use the feature. I have tried many suggestions online, and none are working. Any help solving this would be much appreciated. Thank you.

For neither of the two web pages below can I get Firefox to autofill a successfully stored username and password.

I've tried inputting the login information and answering yes when Firefox asks to save. I've also tried to manually enter the URLs and login information into the Firefox password manager.

I've also set up custom permissions for each site - allow popups, location, etc etc. And I've turned OFF Enhanced Tracking Protection entirely for both.

In ONE instance, I went to the page, and Firefox HAD entered username and password. But as soon as I logged in, the bank in question sent a 6 digit text in order to reach my account. That was successful, but upon attempting a later login, autofill was no longer working.

The websites are acting as one would hope with Safari - MacOS is offering to enter the password.

Hello there!

Trying out Firefox in Windows 11 after not having used it in several years, and right away I am faced with a major problem that I cannot figure out: I am not receiving Gmail notifications!

I keep Gmail open as my first tab, at all times, as seen in the first screenshot I've attached. In Gmail itself, in said tab, I have gone to the SETTINGS wheel -> See All Settings and scrolled down to the Notifications area, and clicked the link that says Enable Desktop Notifications. Firefox prompted me about the notifications, and I of course chose "Allow". As seen in the second screenshot I've attached, the offer to enable desktop notifications isn't even there anymore because it has been allowed. And notifications are set to ALL emails in the main tab, with a loud sound to play as well just so I don't miss it.

And lo and behold, the only notification I am getting is a blue dot under the pinned tab under the Gmail logo

There is no sound played that I've heard, but more importantly, no popups on my desktop and nothing waiting in my system notification center

I am using Windows 11 Enterprise

Thanks in advance for any assistance

Hello,

When deleting several files on my site, Firefox asked me if I wanted to remove this warning popup.

I said yes.

Since then, I've been unable to delete files, because the popup no longer appears.

How can I reactivate it?

Lately, one particular page keeps opening in Chinese instead of English. I've checked with friends and coworkers, and it loads in English for them without any issues. I've already gone through my language settings to make sure everything is set to English, and I don't use any VPNs while browsing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cleared history etc. and the system will not open up the link I need to see my mothers blood culture results? Her is the link to the website https://patient.labcorp.com/landing

I have sugarcrm running via firefox. I show a phone icon for click to call next to phone numbers but click does not initiate the call. I have to highlight the phone, right click and send it to the dialer.

Is this a settings issue?

Hello dear Mozilla Team.

My Name ist Nico and I have a Problem on my Firefox PC. When im looking Into my search History i have weird Websites Like bcclk.com in there. I have Heard that These Websites are Bad Like a Virus. I reseted my Firefox and still have them.

I Need Help. What can I do?

Thanks for your Help.

Whenever I try to open a pubg.com web page (for example https://pubg.com/en-asia/news/8727) I get a very dark outline of the page with no access to any of the links. Can you assist?

firefox used to have good history now it's only 7 days? i need to see more than 7 days, all of it being available is ideal. what prompted this - although i've been irked by it before - is needing to know how i got to a website, what was the search and/or tab spelunking that got me there? it's really important to know this. relying solely on google search (if that'll yield part of the trail) seems contrary to firefox ethos.

Hi,

Firefox version: 139.0.4 (64-bit) OS: Windows 11

I have been having issues where Firefox tab will just crash out for no reason it appears and it happens at random times and once the tab start to crash, and I restore it, it will crash again and again. The only way tog et out of the loop is to restart Firefox.

I have tried: Refreshing/Reset, Clearing Cache and History removing all themes, disabling extensions, disabling my anti virus. Turning off hardware acceleration didn't make any different.

I currently have 2 extensions enabled: uBlock Origin 1.64.0 and Bitwarden Password Manager 2025.5.0

In the about:Crashes I have reported them all and they seem to have the same type of reasons in the Raw data/Minidump which are: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ

Any help as to what to try next?
