So I reformatted my hard drive and everytime I finish I reinstall Firefox. I have an account where I log in and it put me back where I left off with all my past bookmarks that I saved. Ive been doing this for 10 years but today not sure whats going on but when I logged if all my stuff has disappeared. Please help or contact Mozilla regarding this. I cant understand why one cant directly speak to the ones who developed this browser. Quite frustrating

When I went to my Firefox password page there was a red banner saying my website was hacked and my passwords stolen a year ago. That message was not on that page a month ago. Please advise urgently.

When I attempt to log into my ssa.gov account thru either login.gov or id.me with firefox browser i get the following message. "Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit." I can access both with google or edge. I am running windows 11 with most recent firefox update What do I need to change in my firefox settings?

Whenever I try to use Reddit Firefox refuses to display most media elements. This has only been a problem since the recent upgrade to 145. I've tried refreshing Firefox. I've even re-installed it, using a totally new profile.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I get the following message (image attached) in the console if I inspect one of the elements involved.

My account is hacked this is supposed to be a secure site that's why I downloaded it. They got extensions linked in here . They have a family account I'm not a parent I'm not a kid I'm a grown woman with a hacked phone they I can't get any help with insane . They make things to easy for hackers nothing is protect damn shame .

One day there are no shortcuts on my firefox homepage, none show up when I open a new tab. In my settings, it shows I have set to allow 3 rows of shortcuts, but there are none! This is so totally inconvenient and I have spent hours trying to sort it out, so I might be bailing on Firefox as my default browser.

Some google search suggestions mention "clicking on the plus sign" to add a shortcut. THat opens a new tab but does not relate to shortcuts.

This is a snip from my Chrome homepage, with shortcuts. I used to have 3 rows in Firefox. Now there are none, and there is no plus sign to add one.

HELP

Doing a "find" ends up showing a greenish (so I'm told) background with white text. Want to guess which "find" in the attached image is difficult for me to find?

What I would like: Find (focus): yellow text on black background Find All: white text on black background

Yes, of course it would be nice if that would auto switch to black on yellow if the website default is black background.

I can hack userContent.css and get the selection function to work:

/* General highlight (for text selection, etc.) */

selection {

   background: #FFFF00 !important;  /* Yellow background */
   color: #000000 !important;       /* Black text */

}

I can hack userContent.css and get the Find All (sans the focus) to work.

But firefox always provides the focus with white on green. Even if I do something like this:

/* Customize the color of highlighted search text */ input[type="search"]:focus::selection {

   background: #FFFF00 !important;  /* Yellow background */
   color: #000000 !important;       /* Black text */

}

I tried several themes. No change. I tried changing Windows Preferences. No change.

There must be a way to make this "find" feature useful for me.

I was googling something related to my game and i clicked on a Reddit search result, which i made sure is the official Reddit website not some shady one, then an empty .htm file from moz-safe-about resource got downloaded randomly. I didn't open it, i uploaded it to VirusTotal which came out safe and then i instantly deleted it and ran a virus scan with Windows Security which also came out clean. i tried to recreate this by opening the same website again both on Firefox and other browsers like Zen(Firefox based) and Chrome but nothing happened.

is this a harmless bug or should i worry that it could be a virus that didnt get detected?

Please can someone be kind enough to assist me. I cannot seem to log in as normal and therefore cannot get my emails and therefore are not able not reply to them.

I have Firefox set to use the built-in .pdf viewer to avoid Adobe's intrusive AI features. I have disabled Adobe's AI features in the Acrobat settings, that does not seem to apply when Firefox opens the Acrobat reader. Consequently, I have to fight off AI "suggestions" and offers of help when I simply want to read a document from the web.

So I set Firefox to use the built-in reader. After 1-2 seconds, it switched to Adobe, and brings up all the annoying AI features. How can I keep Firefox from switching to Adobe?

As a test, I renamed Acrobat.exe to AcrobatX.exe. Firefox behavior did not change. I also killed all Acrobat-related tasks in Task Manager. My document still displayed in Acrobat after 1-2 seconds, but none of the Acrobat-related tasks reappeared in the Task Manager.

I am using Firefox 145.0.2 64 bit in Windows 11 with all updates current.

Many thanks for advice.

I have many website icons from closed tabs at the top of the page that are crowding out my open tabs. I don't know why they keep appearing and I can't get rid of them. I've tried everything I can think of. I'm on an iMac, Sequoia 15.6.1

Hi. I'm in Windows 10 Extension using latest version of Firefox 145.0.2.

Every time I try to log into my Gmail account, a Windows Security Pop up says: "Making sure it's you. Please sign in to google.com. This request is coming from Firefox, published by Mozilla Corporation."

I'm already trying to log into gmail using my user name and password! I cancel out of the pop up and then it takes several tries to finally log in to gmail.

Is there any way to disable this pop up request at Firefox's end?

Thank you. JHL
