Whenever I try to download a file from google drive, I get: "The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to drive.google.com. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

Downloading google docs files from drive works fine, they convert to word and save to my downloads like normal. But downloading image files or pdfs yields this error. Right-clicking and downloading them from the folder view just does nothing. There is no difference between shared files and my own drive files. This error only happens in firefox, I can download files on microsoft edge just fine.

This has been happening for a few weeks now. Things I've tried:

-clearing cookies and cache -restarting firefox, restarting computer -checking for updates and updating firefox -disabling all my add-ons -clearing startup cache -adding drive.google.com and google.com to the exceptions for enhanced tracking protection -switching from standard to custom and unchecking cookies from the list of trackers and scripts to block, then clearing all cookies and cache -attempting to download in firefox troubleshoot mode -attempting to download in incognito mode -refreshing firefox -re-installing firefox by following the steps here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1233618 -turned off real-time protection on computer antivirus (default for windows 10) -turned off microsoft defender firewall

I don't even know what else I can try. I assume it's a firefox error because this only happens using firefox on my laptop - I use firefox mobile and can download the same files on my phone. Does anyone have any advice?

One of the foreign website I need to visit seems to work only with ASCII chars on its URL, even though the website itself will request URLs with foreign characters!

Is there a work around?

I sign into Xfinity email using this: https://connect.xfinity.com/appsuite/#!!&app=io.ox/mail&folder=default0/INBOX I get a jumble of data but only one of four mailboxes. Microsoft Edge shows ok. Xfinity installed a new mail process from a company called OX.IO Thanks for your help

Yahoo mail push notifications stopped working around 5/25/23. I have Firefox v113.0.1 from the automatic updates. The notifications were coming, now they don't. Firefox still sends notices from other email services, and yahoo notices still work with other browsers.

How to I go back to the previous version of Firefox?

I have a slim window of firefox opend on the side when working on e.g. OneNote. The problem lies within the zoom of firefox, wich causes half of the page not to be visable. Is there a feature to rezise pages to fit the width of the window (or a practical command using .css files)? And preferably only if the window is too small, if it is to big, it shouldn't zoom in.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Folk,

Firefox runs perfectly smooth in 3840x2160, so this is not a perf issue. However when switching from onboard laptop screen (2k) to my external WQHD screen, Firefox does not refresh, not reacting to input or mouse until I switch back and forth from another window. So it only refresh/repaint when main window looses and gets focus.

I have to restart firefox to make it works again.

Configuration: Linux debian stable (11) (same on PopOS) CPU: intel 8550 / GPU: Intel HD 620 RAM: 16Gb External monitor connected through usb-c 3.1

It does the same with Thunderbird. My Qt apps and terminals (alacritty) are not impacted.

In the Page Info Window Media Tab when trying to save multiple images the Save As button is covered up by the ? help icon so when clicking on it instead of saving the images it opens up the support page. It only happens when trying to save multiple images, when saving a single image it works fine. Just wondering if it is my computer or not. I'm on a 21 mac pro 14"

When I scroll down to look at recent posts on Facebook groups I follow all but the top one has suddenly lost its date/time – I just get a blank where the details would usually be and have to hover over to reveal the details. The silly thing is that this only happens when I sign in and it doesn’t happen when I use chrome – although I prefer using Firefox, not least because the bookmarks sidebar is better. I have tried getting rid of all extensions and running in troubleshoot mode but without success. Any help/advice would be appreciated (as long as it is not about football!)

Firefox Mozilla keeps popping up on the side of my computer asking for payment and I know this isn't right but asking you if this is a Scam Alert or is Firefox really asking me for a payment

I am having trouble deleting Folders in Bookmarks Manager. When I search I get untold # of links, many of which do NOT relate to the topic. I'm sure the answer is somewhere but I can't find it. Can someone point me to the info?

Is there a way to refine the results from a large list? I'm a retired librarian so I have a lot of experience searching.

Thanks for your help

On switching on my Windows laptop I used to get a background picture with several clickable links inviting me to a) Like or Dislike the image or b) find out more about it. (Pressing Enter brings up the Login password dialogue) Recently the startup background suddenly reverted to a bland graphic theme (see uploaded image). What happened? My default browser is Mozilla Firefox.

Hi, I have had an issue for a couple of weeks now, very annoying, when say in excel or intellij, I am pressing the tab button, and for example, it doesnt indent as it should 4 spaces, instead it goes outside of what I am working on, and goes to firefoxview in top left, and if I press tab about 10-12 times, after this specific and exact sequence, it will end up back in excel for example, in the correct place, and then will work properly, but only after it has completed the first 10-12 steps. It is not specific to one laptop, but also applies to desktop, both are apple, one laptop is 9 years old desktop is newish fwiw.

Tried resetting keyboard to default settings on both etc, no change.

Help appreciated.

I have 2 laptops (Macs) and want to Merge the bookmarks on the two. I can only find ways to copy one to the other, but then it overwrites what is on the laptop the bookmarks are being copied too.

Thanks

This spring, I noticed I couldn't use Firefox with OpenSRS... my controls inside the portal don't work in FF anymore. Today, I see my controls don't work in SiteGround, and that's my livelihood and how I manage sites. What gives? These changes drive me to Chrome, where the sites function. I want to be loyal to Firefox, but these problems drive me away from it in frustration. Sincerely, morganamaine16

Whenever I attempt to enter my bank account (Maine) I receive a "security message" and when I click to have my phone contacted in order to receive a pass code, the phone NO LONGER rings like it used to.

What is the problem?

I now have to use Microsoft Edge in order to get into my bank account.

Thank you!
