I am using an outdated Android FireFox Browser

120.1.1 (Build #2015990546), 287644eb76+ GV: 120.0.2-20231208211905 AS: 120.0.2

I think it was downloaded December 2023, never updated (for fear of losing tabs).... In Late November 2025 (recently), I opened a link in my FaceBook app (as usual, not the first time, at all), the link followed to the FireFox app and only that page appeared in my tabs- ALL OF MY TABS that were building and being saved for 2 years just suddenly vanished, and, quietly!!!!

I am using a tablet and I it has never been rooted.... I do have some knowledge in Windows data recovery, managing sessions through Windows/Android platforms through extensions, JSON files, and the Windows backup folders....

Can anyone help me, based on all info provided????

Scrolling in Firefox is causing any webpage to scroll many lines at once with a single click, and it seems to be exclusively happening to Firefox, as every other application scrolls normally. I have tried searching here and elsewhere for a solution, and I have tried to change about:config settings based on the recommendations I could find to no avail. I have also tried to refresh Firefox and have used Troubleshoot Mode, but those too have not worked. I have no clue as to what could have caused this, as I have not been messing with any settings prior to this.

Firefox downloads my images as Tiff files. I do not want them to download them as Tiff but I don't see anywhere to change my download file type preferences for Android

I don't want to "update my software" every day. How can I turn this function completely off ? This continuous badgering makes me want to switch to another provider.

I'm up to the most current version of Firefox

120.0.1 (64-bit) Windows 11

For this and the last versions over a couple of years whenever I go to;

https://www.linkedin.com

Then try to go to any other page like https://nextdoor.com from a bookmark, it stays on linkedin.

If I enter the address by typing it in, it works.

I have a problem on YouTube where videos are too bright, but when i click for example to save that video to watch later it has normally saturated colors. And I'm using windows. On photo example1 video is too bright, but on example2 it is normal. thanks for help

I am trying to reach an internal company website ([URL]), with a certificate chain rooted in a company certificate authority. This works fine in Chrome, and worked in Firefox on my previous computer. But i recently got a new machine, and something somewhere is not quite right. I get an error message looking like this (between the ~~~s):

~~~ Someone could be trying to impersonate the site and you should not continue.

Web sites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust [URL] because its certificate issuer is unknown, the certificate is self-signed, or the server is not sending the correct intermediate certificates.

Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

View Certificate ~~~

If i click on the error code, i get these details:

~~~ [URL]

Peer's Certificate issuer is not recognised.

HTTP Strict Transport Security: false HTTP Public Key Pinning: false

Certificate chain:

[certificate]

[certificate]

[certificate]

~~~

If i click 'View Certificate', i get a chain of three certificates:

1. Subject common name = [certificate]
2. Subject common name = [certificate]
3. Subject common name = [certificate]

If i go to Settings > Privacy & Security > View Certificates > Authorities, i can find both the [certificate] certificates. As far as i can tell, they are identical - i can open the certificate from 'View Certificate' and the corresponding one from the certificate manager and flip between tabs, and all the details are the same.

I am using Firefox 120.0, via a flatpak, on Ubuntu 22. I have given the flatpak access to /etc/ssl/certs, where my company's internal CA certificates are located.

To me, this seems like it should all work. The server has a certificate signed by an internal CA, which is signed by another internal CA, and both those internal CA certificates are in my certificate manager. So what is going wrong? Is there any way i can debug this?

Recently, I switched to Fedora 39. At first, Firefox was working fine, but after I logged into my Firefox account, the fonts of some languages stopped rendering, and this started happening with almost every site that was using system fonts.

Unattended software (kiosk) here.

Sometimes (so rarely that I cannot reproduce in dev) the client sees this error screen: "Firefox closed unexpectedly while starting..." (see image in attachment)

Sometimes when rebooting the error goes away and Firefox starts normally.

Sometimes even when rebooting the system - this vertical error screen appears, and one solution is to reinstall Firefox, but I'd like not to (if not necessary) or at least programmatically detect the issue and perform the needed actions.

QUESTIONS: How to programmatically detect (bash i.e.) that this error window is present and get rid of it properly? Or, how to (for debugging) force that screen to appear (to force that broken state)?

PS: I'm running Firefox using:

nohup firefox -P ff_custom_profile -new-instance -private-window -kiosk "$url" > /dev/null 2>&1 &

Thank you for any assistance or insight

i have tried LITERALLY EVERYTHING and i can just not connect to my site that uses http, it constantly redirects to https which DOES NOT WORK. and i am trying to connect to my server here so its kinda important but i clearly CANT access it.. i have watched countless forums, videos, addons. but nothing helps so please if anyone knows anything about this thatd be amazing.

ps also i have connected to the SAME ip/http server before using firefox, but now it does not work.

I've got a question/suggestion about Picture in Picture feature. Why "Close" button works the same as "Back to Tab"?

Scenario: Close the Picture in Picture video by clicking on the [X] button or Cmd+W shortcut.

Actual result: Picture in Picture closes and Firefox window opens, on the tab containing the video. This is very strange behaviour. If I close the video, I don't want to watch it now. Essentially "Close" button works exactly like "Back to Tab" button - so what's the point? If I wanted to switch to the tab - I would click on "Back to tab".

Expected result: I expect Picture in Picture video to close and nothing else to happen. Don't open the window/tab containing the video.

Thanks

I said it all in the in the opening statement... What else am I meant to say?????????? It worked fine 2 weeks ago..? But now forget it!!!!!!! What has changed....you must know ... So don't ask me just fix it!!!!!!

Is there some way to enable and disable specific config settings , on a per-site basis?

For example, let's say I want to disable right-click hijacking (dom.event.contextmenu.enabled) on turtlesaregreat.com, but use the default settings everywhere else.

The Page Info > Permissions panel has some, but not all the ones I want. Is this somehow built into Firefox, or maybe there's an extension?

Thanks.
