I-Firefox Community Forum

for the last couple hours i have been having trouble with firefox not loading/running web pages properly, when i open youtube for example it displays completely wrong and on other sites it simple wont load any new data after the initial homepage screens.

I opened Firefox this morning and all of my pinned shortcuts have disappeared. Shortcuts are enabled in the settings. I checked the browser.newtabpage.pinned pref on the about:config and all of my pinned shortcuts are still there, but they're not appearing on the actual page itself. Are there any other settings that I'm not aware of?

My problem is that Firefox will no longer allow me to login to my primary websites (email, bank, Costco, Apple...). I originally assumed that my outdated version of the MacOS was the problem, which was tied to the age of my outdated iMac hardware. Hence, I bought a new iMac, with the latest MacOS. Firefox still does not work. There is something wrong with Firefox and I don't know what it is. I have captured screenshots of the symptoms of what goes wrong with each website, but the one thing in common is that they are saying it is an application error on my end of the connection — which must be the browser (Firefox). I am being forced to do my daily business with Safari, but that is a strange browser for me, and they do not have my numerous Bookmarks. Also, their way of storing bookmarks is very strange, so I only have 5 — the ones that I have found so far that do not work with Firefox. There are probably more, maybe All of my bookmarks, but these are the 5 that I need every day.

Figure 1. Outlook (my email) When I log into my email, the result is Figure 1. This appears to me an application error on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 2. Costco.com When I log into Costco.com, the result is Figure 2. This appears to me an application error on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 3. Apple.com When I log into Apple.com, the result is Figure 3. This is Apple telling me there is something wrong on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 4. BankofAmerica.com When I log into my account at Bank of America, everything looks fine at first. But when I try to open my checking account, the result is Figure 4. This symbol, swirling forever, indicates something wrong on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 5. Hallmark.com When I log into Hallmark.com, everything looks fine at first. But none of the links will open, hence I cannot obtain any information about upcoming TV programs. This indicates something wrong on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

All the above examples work perfectly with Safari. Firefox is supposed to be the most up-to-date browser, so why has Firefox stopped working properly?

The browser is set up to display AccuWeather forecast based on location. Up to date it displayed forecast correctly. But today it displays Frankfurk-am-Main. When I try to change location, it only searches among german cities. Any help will be appreciated. Here are some screenshots that show listing german cities and no vpn and my exact location.

I've been using Firefox for years because more popular browsers like Chrome and Edge have anti-features I dislike. In recent years, however, it feels like Mozilla has been more eager to follow trends set up by it's larger competitors even when those trends seem destructive to the principles that used to be at the core of this project. AI is the final straw for me. I don't understand why I would even use Firefox over Chrome if both are full of AI anyways. Even if AI wasn't a deal-breaker for me, I'm worried Firefox will make similar decisions later. I want out.

Is there any good and maintained alternatives to Firefox? Something like how Firefox was just a handful of years ago? Maybe a fork of an old version?

I haven’t used Firefox in years. Recently, I got a new Mac M mini with the M4 chip and I’m trying to use Firefox as my primary browser because many websites don’t seem to work with Safari. Now, I’m facing a big dilemma. I don’t remember the password for Firefox from the past. It doesn’t seem to remember it, and I can’t change it. Every time I try to use Firefox, it keeps asking for this password. Can you please help me reset the password and set up a Firefox account that works seamlessly with my fingerprint as a password? If this is not possible, I’ll have to choose not to use the service.

On all our computers it seems impossible to sign into Outlook...several laptops and 3 desktop...even a new Apple device. Enter your email address and then taken to the next page (see attachment). sign in works with Edge! This has been happening for maybe a month. Very frustrating! NEVER opens the next security window, the 'spots' just keep moving forever...selecting "Back" just repeats the cycle.

For example when using Google translate there is an input delay, but it's only for Google Translate as other websites -- including other Google products -- don't have.
