Newsmax.com page will not load. When trying to load I get the following: ""An error occurred when trying to load newsmax.com. The authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact website owners to inform them of this problem.""

I have organised my bookmarks into folders. I recently logged in and tried to access a bookmark using the "manage bookmarks" and the folder structure is no longer there. The only folder there is "other bookmarks". I tried restoring an old set of bookmarks but that made no difference. When restoring the number of bookmarks shows that the bookmarks are there. Also if I use the search facility I can find the bookmark and when I select it the star appears filled in indicating it really is a bookmark. SO I have a lot of saved bookmarks but cannot access them. How can I get the structure back? Note that recently when I started Firefox it claimed to hae found an error and I had to restart in safe mode and go back to default settings. I don't know if this has caused the issue.

Hello friends,

As the title of the subject entails, I am trying to disable Firefox's new translation tool, becasue I'm using a 3rd party extension.

I tried to follow the solution on the following support thread ( [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1434741#question-reply] ), but it didn't work for me, and I'm still seeing the new translate button.

Is there another way to fix this?

I'm using Firefox 129.0.1 (64bit) for MacOS.

After updating to Floorp 11.17.3 (based on Firefox ESR 128), all my pinned tabs now scroll with normal tabs. So, if I have enough tabs open that I need to scroll to see them all, my pinned tabs scroll to the left and go out of sight. Before update they were always in place, and only unpinned tabs were scrolling. Is there a way to make them stationary again?

For the last two days the search box for Wikipedia is missing with Firefox, but works properly with Chrome and its various derivatives.

My FireFox is 128.0.3 64 bit which it claims is the current release. It claims to have updated last on July 27 which is an obvious red flag. Is there some way to force FireFox to revert to the previous release?

I can get to a search box it by right clicking on the magnifier and opening the search box in another tab or window, and then deleting the original tab which is rather cumbersome. I've turned off all ad blockers and so forth.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I had to uninstall firefox due to an error. I kept receiving an xulrunner error when I tried to open Firefox. I researched this and found that uninstalling the app fixed the issue. However, I have lost all of my saved passwords. Is there any way I can get them back?

Hi How can I find and merge duplicated bookmarks in "Other Bookmarks". I've looked at some answers on the web but none seem to say anything about merging within a folder

Thanks

David

128.0.3 failed to install on my PC. It completely wiped my firefox, my personal account for both PC and Android, wiped all of my extensions and then left a folder called "Old firefox data" on my desktop. Firefox cant use this folder to import anything.

Wtf happened and why is my profile that is connected to my email completely wiped as well? I had a metric ton of bookmarked sites that I use for my websites, design, programming etc saved for my business and now its all gone and even the recovery backup is completely blank.

I'm baffled.

When I try to open my FB pages on my desktop, this message appears and there doesn't seem to be a way to correct. it. I tried to restart, and erase recent history.

However the the pages open on my lap top.

Please advise. Thank you!

Firefox was once the most popular browser in the world, but then Mozilla started releasing updates every week and became disgusting. Now Mozilla has a tiny piece of the market, they have essentially lost almost everything, but they continue to shit with updates like diarrhea, which most users do not need and it's impossible to refuse the annoying, ugly constant reminder about updates. I'm not even talking about the fact that after a refusal to update to a new version, there is a forced update to a new version without permission. So, why doesn't this company learn from its mistakes and become at least a little smarter?

1st I have a website that asks me to put in my password.... when I do it brings me back to the same page.....but if I do it in a private window it works fine.....so thats on you | 2nd I have a website that lists estatesales near me..... when I load it it never fully loads just times out...this is since the update you just did today to my firefox

Thanks for making life so hard....i really didnt have enough issues these days....

and yes I tried to uninstall and reinstall them.... funny thing is everything works fine in BRAVE....hmmmmm

For the past few weeks I get the pictured error for every file download. Sometimes restarting firefox allows it to work once but not always. This appears to have started after the last update.

I know my router is working ( has been tested)and is fast,but email keeps saying I don't have and internet connection when I do. It is very slow or doesn't work at all. I am not sure if the problem is with Mozilla or my VPN which is through someone else. I can get some results for a short time when I reset the router, but it's not the router. I am sure of that. I am not particularly computer savvy.

As per this reddit thread.

When a document is loaded in Google Drive, after a few minutes pages will begin to flicker through other pages in that document (including edited version of the current page) and sometimes even pages from other documents that have been opened that session (some people reported pages from documents opened in previous sessions appearing, but I have not had that issue). This problem seems to only affect Linux. Reports on the reddit thread indicate that setting gfx.canvas.acceleration to false fixes the problem, although I have not thoroughly tested to ensure that fix works and even if it does it obviously isn't a desirable solution. The thread indicates that this has been an issue since 129.0.2, although I'm unsure whether this is a regression or if Google changed something that broke Gecko. Interestingly, turning off all of my extensions doesn't seem to fix anything, but running in troubleshooting mode does. Additionally, I've noticed that Firefox reports that it is running in Quirks mode when it loads a particular script, presumably because that script injects raw HTML into the page. (the script in question: https://docs.google.com/static/document/client/js/108419787-client_js_prod_kix_core.js)

First, I would like to point out that there is a previous thread that asks the same question and unless you are a tech genius it DOES NOT provide a reasonable solution for the majority of people that are not tech savy. They literally warn you to be careful as these changes could mess up your system and providing this complex solution, IS RIDICULOUS!!

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1382827

Second, why this setting is the default and a simple solution hasn't been provided is ridiculous and another example of how customer service no longer exists!

So for the majority of users that likely don't understand the solution provided or don't want to risk creating more issues. CAN YOU PLEASE PROVIDE AN ANSWER THAT EVERYONE CAN UNDERSTAND? If you don't, I can assure you that not only will I never use any of your products again, I will make it my life's mission to make sure others quit using your products as well because again, this whole issue and past solution is beyond ridiculous!!!

NO ONE WANTS THIS SETTING SO THE SOLUTION SHOULD BE FIXED BY YOUR PROGRAMMERS AND NOT BY PROVIDING COMPLEX SOLUTIONS THAT MOST DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!

I know I'm not the first person to report this problem, but the webappsstore.sqlite file in my profile folder is very large, over 85 MB. I don't want to delete it because I don't want to lose my bookmark data, which are stored in this database (I even double-checked this by temporarily moving the database out of my profile folder, basically as if it were "deleted," and started Firefox, and sure enough all my bookmarks' data were gone).

I tried running `sqlite3 vacuum` on it, but that only reduced it to 79 MB. Is there another way to further cleanup old or unimportant data in this database?
