I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Hello! Recently switched from Chrome to Firefox. I wanted to get browser push notifications from Facebook, specifically Messenger, but it won't toggle on for some reason. When I refresh the page, it's still off. I've allowed Facebook.com permission to send notifications, cleared cookies and cache, and even uninstalling Firefox extensions, but no luck. Any help?

Lately I cannot explore Airbnb, I get "Network error (connection): NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource.". No problem with Edge. Should I forget about Firefox?

I have many companies and organizations that tell me that their website does not support Firefox, only Chrome and Edge. As I would like to divorce myself from Google and Microsoft as much as possible I would like to know what issues there are with supporting your browser. I am switching to Linux as my OS and Mint comes with Firefox. I understand I can get Linux versions of Chrome and Edge but that is really not my preference. Thanks.

I have been trying to remove "Your browser is being managed by your organisation" simply because the browser is on my home PC and not being managed by any organisation. However, I have an issue with registry editor as it does not have Mozilla or Firefox keys in "Policies" "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies" or "HKEY_CURRENT_USER". I would be grateful for any advice to overcome this issue as it annoyingly restricts access to web pages.

As an example: suppose you have 100 tabs open. Does Firefox use more memory if 50 are open in 1 window and 50 in another or if all are open in just 1 window? Does it make any difference?

My passwords won't auto-fill. The selection for "Ask to save logins and passwords for websites" is unchecked every time I restart Firefox.

I've tried everything. Re-installing, refreshing, removed all of my plug-ins, etc. I'm not in private mode either.

This is really disappointing. I don't want to switch to another browser.

Hello,

I am browsing the latest FF and I keep getting the sign in with google pop up on so many sites and I really don't want to sign in with G on so many sites.

I tried setting "Google Account sign-in prompts " to off in my G accounts permissions page but the pop up is still popping.

Any ideas why?

Thanks

Hi!

Where does FF store automatically downloaded updates on windows 10? Seems like last time this was asked was during XP time: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/751464 thus this answer is no longer valid. I am looking for win 10 version of this answer.

I have to use Safari to access ssa.gov. I cannot access my account using Firefox. The computer is a Mac operating under Ventura 13.1. The Firefox version is 108.0.1 and the Safari version is 16.2. The problem is ongoing. Willard Jaques [email removed from public] [removed phone# from public]

/edit: edited personal info and moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to (desktop) Firefox section as you have macOS.

fedex.com has broken my browser!

I have a FedEx account for my business, but I no longer use it. However, I also receive packages from FedEx from time to time. For reasons that cannot be explained by anyone at FedEx, my Firefox browser will not allow me to create a new FedEx account to manage my deliveries. In other words, after I enter my new username & password, the FedEx website comes back with a failure message with words to the effect that, "This didn't work, please refresh your page."

I called FedEx tech support & learned they are now totally incompetent. The only solution that was offered was "Clear all of your browser history". I didn't fall for that - I did however delete all history with "fedex" in the link. I also removed all 31 cookies associated with fedex.com. Then, I re-started the browser, and tried again:

Upon summoning the fedex.com login page, the login information was pre-filled with the userid & password for my old, unused business account! How does this happen without cookies or history? Where is fedex.com getting this data? Is it stored on my browser - or does fedex.com have some nefarious scheme whereby they're using my computer id or IP or???

I need to delete every shred of data in my browser that is associated with FedEx - how do I do this?

Many websites are asking for preferred privacy settings but for some reason my browser closes them before I can move my mouse pointer. Is there some setting in either Ghostery or Firefox (108.0.1) to change so that these essential settings can be selected?

Hello! Since a month I have a strange problem - Firefox wont connect to any Google service - REcaptcha, google-analytics. Any site that uses these services would not load, or loads and waits until connection expires. I tried refreshing Firefox, the uninstalling and re-installing - the problem remains. I do not use any proxy or firewall on my computer. Opera and other browsers do not have this problem. Please, advice.

firefox moniter found my email in a new data breach february 4,2023. Firefox sent me an email about it. how do I know the firefox email is safe to click on highlighted items in the email?

I am facing recurring tab and window crashes on Firefox 108. This is one of the submitted crash reports https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/b930a34e-c41d-4514-9dbd-a09970230204#tab-details

I have tried disable extensions one by one but it does not seem to affect the problem. Or at least there isn't a clear pattern that can help isolate the problem.

How can I fix this? Can someone help me read these reports better?
