I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Hi, I was looking for a funny page and found youranidiot.com and when I went to the page about a dozen or more little windows popped up and were bouncing all over the desktop with happy faces in them. I finally got them to stop and closed everything down, however now, all my bookmarks are gone, firefox will not sync, I cant change password to a primary one. I can not restore my bookmarks from previous save. I am worried they got all my info. what can I do??

Whenever I open Firefox, there are some sites that are opened itself. This is very annoying. Everytime I have to close all that tabs.

Kindly tell me how can I avoid this annoying thing. Else I have to switch to another browser.

Thanks

I've been using Firefox ESR (). I want to change to Firefox.

When I run Firefox, go to the File Menu, and select Import From Another Browser it tells me that no programs that contain bookmarks, history, or password data could be found.

I have not uninstalled Firefox ESR, it contains bookmarks, history, or password data.

Why can't Firefox find Firefox ESR? How do I make this import happen?

Hey! I can't Download any photo from right-click and => Save file as... When I press "Save file as..." there's no ant event or something, It's like Button but with out any action.

I use Ubuntu "Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS" Firefox version 107.0.1

I need help please...

AndyMark.com is displaying as a mobile site and unusable. No option in Firefox to request desktop site. Running Windows 10. Instructions online say to go to Firefox menu and select desktop site but that option is no longer available. I realize that Windows is a phone operating system but my phone is Android and my laptops are Windows and I use Windows no my computer. Firefox is unusable if we can not set it to always use desktop views.

Please put the option back. Thank you.

Hey there!

We have problems with our OAuth authentication in Firefox. There are 4 calls happening (3 Redirects).

- Call To Login - Call To Authorize Endpoint - Call To Client SignIn - Call To Client Homepage

The expected behavior would be

Login (302) -> Authorize (302) -> Client SignIn (302) -> Client Homepage (200)

This works in a few tested browsers. In Firefox the first three calls appear simultaneously without a status code in the network tab and the page keeps loading. After about 75 Seconds the page loading stops and the three status codes (302, 302, 302) appear. But the fourth request is missing in the network tab. (See attached images - Firefox is dark, Chrome is white)

I have redacted HAR files of both Firefox and Chrome if that helps.

Any idea why Firefox behaves like that?

Thank you for helping! Best, Chris

Hello, We don't want private browsing icon in the start menu. How can we prevent installation of Firefox private browsing icon in startup menu? That icon is linked through another shortcut in the C:/Users/.../AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/Start menu/ Programs/ to the private_browsing.exe

Thanks, Dmitri

Windows 10 Firefox 107 & Firefox107.1

I restarted firefox today, and now I have the following behavior: I have a window with many tabs open, enough that I have the little '<' and '>' scroll buttons in the field. Whenever I move the mouse pointer into the tab area (including the scroll buttons, but not the '+' (new tab) button to the right), unless I am actively clicking, the tabs start scrolling rightward until only the rightmost set of tabs are visible. The window being viewed does not change. I can use the 'v' tab selector to the right, and it will select the chosen tab and make that visible in the window, and make the selected tab visible in the tab bar, but when I again move the pointer into the tab area, it starts scrolling to the right. Similarly, I can click on the '<' scroll left button, or double or triple click on it, and it will scroll the tabs leftward; but immediately after completing the action, the tabs will scroll rightward to the end again.

It seems my problem is the same one as in this thread but there was no solution given there (the problem persists after restarting Firefox in troubleshooting mode). I see the same behavior as that poster with the tooltips in the tab bar, but drop-down menus such as on this submission page seem to be working normally for me.

As the title says, after update 107.01, passwords work in autofill, but I cannot see them when I go to "passwords" in the menu... The passwords page is just blank... Any help would be appreciated!

I can load their main page but I cannot log in. I get the error I have attached. Finally, I had to log in from Safari after a lot of hassle and help from a customer service rep. What happened? I have been logging in here for years from Firefox. I am not having this issue with any other site.

Firefox is the only application affected (latest 107.0.1, Windows 11 pro latest updates). I have updated all drivers, run system and memory checks, uninstalled deleted remaining files and registry settings, twice actually all to no avail.

I have recently changed ISP but cannot see how that affects just Firefox (Chrome/Opera/Edge all work) and also moved to Bit Defender antivirus. Here I think I saw startup installations in Chrome etc for bit defender but never for Firefox. I have tried turning off all virus web protection still no joy.

I have looked briefly at the crash reports but with my level of expertise I can see no common crash reason.

I have had no add-ins installed for last week while trying to get this to work again. I have used Firefox for years and have no wish to move to another browser but this situation is driving me nuts.

If there is anybody out there with any ideas on next steps I could take?

Cheers Mike

This was after an update last week to arch, I installed all the bits that seemed to be missing and now it crashes without giving me much info at all.

Hello,

In my newsletter subscription options, I did NOT checked the "Firefox Account Tips" option but I keep receiving mail saying this : "You're receiving this email because [edited] @gmail.com has a Firefox account and is subscribed to Firefox Account Tips."

Could you please fix this issue so that I don't receive these mails anymore ?

Thank you in advance,

Mikael

I would really appreciate if the Firefox Password Manager would time-out and ask me again the primary password every x minutes (lets say 10 minutes, better if configurable). I use Firefox in my home PC, I have two kids (11 and 13 years old) and they frequently use my Linux/Firefox session for their school necessities and leisure time. The problem is that often they end using my session and they have access to all my usn/pwd inside de Password Manger (Internet router configuration, Parental Control configuration, ecc.) My kids have their own Linux profiles and Chrome profiles for school but they usually get to use my own PC/web-browser sessions for practical reasons inside my family.

Thank you very much for your support. Hernan M. Vago

Hello,

I have set my OS and Firefox language to English. While the settings, menu, etc. are in English, various alerts and popups which let me save/upload a file (please take a look at the attached picture) are in the local language.

Does anyone know how to fix it? It doesn't occur with other browsers.

Thank you.

In Firefox, the comments section on articles at 9to5Mac have not loaded for me for some time. Today I was trying to figure out why.

Troubleshoot Mode did not fix it. (In Troubleshoot Mode, if I carefully watch the webpage loading, for a moment I see a flicker of the comments section loading for a fraction of second, but then it disappears.)

Example screenshots of this:

But creating a new profile in Firefox does fix it.

A few examples of the many webpages where this occurs:

• https://9to5mac.com/2022/12/12/microsoft-authenticator-apple-watch-discontinued/#comments

• https://9to5mac.com/2022/12/12/xiaomi-clone-the-iphone-shocking/#comments

• https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/16/kuo-iphone-15-pro-with-usb-c-to-offer-major-boost-in-data-transfer-speeds/#comments

The comments section also loads properly when looking at these same webpages in Chrome and Microsoft Edge.

I think(?) this behavior also happens with some other websites' comment sections, although I don't usually pay much attention to comment sections.

Any thoughts on how to fix it without needing rebuild my entire profile brick by brick?

Basic information: Firefox 107.0.1 (64-bit) (latest update available), Windows 10, i7 11th generation, 16 GB RAM

Thank you!

It was restarted after upgrading to 107.0.1 but the Firefox doesn't ask my master pwd anymore and disappeared all stored password .

In a profile I found 1-1 logins.json, logins-backup.json both are almost empty and a one day old logins.json.corrupt file with a quite huge size.

When I renamed logins.json.corrupt to logins.json as I found in forum, restarted Firefox it became to *.corrupt again.

When I try to log in to Fidelity.com using Firefox, there is a very long delay (until timeout), while the status bar at the bottom of the screen says "Performing TLS handshake . . ." This does not happen on other websites. Does anyone else have this problem, or any suggested solution?

I have been using Firefox on OpenSuse Tumbleweed. When media is playing in Firefox, the media player widget says, "Firefox is playing Media". There is no thumbnail or title. I have tried on multiple websites, and all are the same.

media.hardwaremediakeys.enabled is set to true.

Chromium on the same system shows the title and progress bar, but no thumbnail.
