Firefox version 152.0 : Firefox is continuously refreshing the page on a particular Website, in both Windows11 and Linux versions, making the site unusable ( unable to click anything ). The website loaded ok previously using Firefox and still loads ok using Chrome. Disabling extensions doesn't help, neither does deleting the cache and cookies. What changed and why? Is there anything else to try?

Hi,

The Mozilla VPN seems to have a hard time with the wired connection (or rather the opposite). As soon as the VPN is on, the connection stops working. The VPN do not recognize the wired connection, either.

There doesn't seem to be a mention of Ethernet connection anywhere in the FAQs.

Question: is the Mozilla VPN compatible with a wired connection?

Thank you!

This is Firefox on a brandnew Fedora installation. Using Jupyter notebooks on Google Colab, I experience delays when typing into input fields. It's not quite a deal-breaker, but annoyingly sluggish. On a Chromium-based browser, Vivaldi, I don't notice this problem.

My hope is there is a certain overlap of the demographics using Colab, Firefox and Fedora. I wonder if there is a known problem in this area? Is there a configuration settings you can suggest?

Thanks in advance!

Bernd.

With Firefox 151.0.4 on Linux Mint I can login to https://www.ftb.ca.gov/myftb/index.asp with username and password, then I get the message: "You may have pressed the back button, refreshed during login, opened too many login dialogs, or there is some issue with cookies, since we couldn't find your session. Try logging in again from the application and if the problem persists please contact the administrator. " . Accessing FTB with Chrome works.

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.

I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.

The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!

When watching videos on youtube, I hold down the space bar to make it go at 2x speed, this makes the video and the audio de sync the more I hold the space bar, It's been happening for quite some time and I can't seem to find an answer as of why this happens or how to fix it.

I speak more than one language and want to have transparency and control of the content. Therefore I always want to see any website in it's native language first.

My preferred situation then would be to have a menu in the tab where I may choose a translation. In the case of a multi-lingual site I want to have those languages as additional options on top - with an indicator for the sites default language. So I may first choose the sites language, then (possibly) into which that is translated into.

But at present I can use only the settings of preferred language for multi-lingual sites, never knowing what language was the base for the content. (Presumably the most accurate content of the website.) And I can add languages for translation and sort them, while - weirdly - I cannot delete them later as there's no control element for getting rid of (maybe accidentally) downloaded ones.

Is there a solution already? Did I miss something in the settings? And: Where is the „translation panel“ to which the settings „Translations - More translation settings“ refer to in the block „Never translate these sites“?

Everytime I restart and open firefox and then try to access facebook, sometimes google, n=some news websites and probably other apps, I get a captcha, but it repeats no matter how many times I get it right.

I was advised to do this, but it's still happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fX0_wiVKhw

But even that's stopped working.

I cannot access facebook and I need it for work (small org, no IT section to ask), and can't access some new sites.

I've gone to basic security settings, but that doesn't help.

What to do?

Linux Mint OS Firefox 152.0.4 Firefox does not recognize embedded iframes in local app page, anymore!

The iframe contains a LOCAL url The page "looks" as if there is no iframe to be acessed ANY ideas??? Thanks, Anne

I'm running Firefox under Ubuntu, Ubuntu is using Wayland which replaced X11.

Firefox's User Agent string still refers to X11, this does not cause me any problem but I'm curious.

I realise some websites might be expecting to see "X11" and could get upset if presented with "Wayland" instead but in various walks of life telling the truth is often the best policy.

about:support in Firefox shows me:

User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:152.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/152.0 Window Protocol wayland

Good afternoon!

Translation (AI) is not working. There is no pop-up window, no icon in the address bar. I made the settings according to the instructions, reinstalled Firefox (152.0.4 (64-bit)).

Can you tell me how to fix the situation?

PS: I have attached screenshots.

Hello, I use Thunderbird to manage several email accounts, one on them is not active anymore but I still want to be able to access the emails stored in my thunderbird directory tree, so I keep it active. And the fact is that every day this account tries to access a remote server that does not exists anymore to retrieve email that can not be retrieve, and every day I am asked for a password that cannot work. But the fact is that I did deactivate all options to read remote emails for this account, so that behavior is odd and I am not able to find a way around it. Any idea what to do not to be bother anymore ?

Thanks in advance for your help :-)
