I-Firefox Community Forum

Recently, I've run into logging in on at least two websites where I have two-factor authentication set up. I'll click the sign in button, and rather than advancing to ask for my authentication code, I get stuck in an endless loading loop and am unable to do anything.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? I have already tried clearing cache and cookies and restarting in safe mode.

This issue only happens to me on desktop. The mobile version of firefox still lets me log in, but I prefer to use desktop.

I am debugging a Web page that performs several AJAX requests.

To this effect I sometimes find it convenient to reissue an AJAX request (from the Network pane of Development Tools, right click + "Resend") and would find it even more convenient to open the request in a separated tab, as was possible until, if I recall correctly, four or five months ago.

Now the latter option does not work, likely because of some security tightening - the "new request" might be seen as a different context, I don't know. The AJAX endpoint receives no cookies, so it can't load the appropriate state, and restarts as a blank slate with a new cookie, which makes the reply useless to me. Even worse, at this point the new cookie value is propagated to the originating window, effectively crashing the entire debugging session.

Is there some way of disabling this option and reverting it to the older, less secure behaviour, on my own development Firefox only?

How do I have more bookmarks than the 9 that are listed. I used to have a list of 20 or 25 bookmarks. Now if I add a new bookmark, one of the old ones is deleted.

Firefox has been my default browser for many years on my debian linux desktop.

I upgraded from version 129.0.2-1 to version 130.0-1 in the normal manner and the new firefox does not connect to remote sites. It does connect to local pages on my PC and, surprisingly, also to www.google.com from where I can access news, for example.

The chrome browser on the same PC has no problems accessing sites, nor does the version 129.0.2 firefox. Only the version 130.0 firefox has a problem.

This happened using my current profile, using --safe-mode and using --no-profile mode on the version 130.0 firefox. I was able to see some packets from a remote site (www.akamai.com) come back on wireshark but the page did not display on the browser. This also happens for sites that appear on the default new tab page, like wikipedia and youtube.

Any ideas on this? thank!!

firefox 130 does not work for axs.com to purchase tickets, previous versions do something is broken in the latest couple updates

test example click on get tickets https://www.axs.com/events/537864/paul-weller-tickets

v114 tested works fine, and probably alot of versions after but not the last few

I have been using Firefox for many years. I just used Crap Cleaner on my PC and cannot access Firefox via the emblem.

I can access other browsers without trouble but Firefox is suddenly not working.

Have tried to reinstall but to no avail.

Help would be much appeciated.

The latest firefox update makes it so that when you have duplicate tabs open, if you close one, it closes them ALL. I had an issue where YouTube decided instead of opening a video in the same tab, it opened in a new tab, a setting I immediately fixed when I realized it had happened.

Unfortunately, I only wanted THE DUPLICATE TABS to close, not ALL of the tabs linking to that video. I wanted A SINGLE TAB REMAINING of that tab, but there appears to be no setting anywhere in Firefox to change that. Can anyone help???

To be clear: When I have multiple of the same tab, I only want to close the other duplicates, not all of them, so I can still go about my business on that one tab.

Ex: I open a YouTube video by accident in multiple tabs, I wish to watch this video without having to search YouTube for it again. I want to close the duplicates of that video tab, but not the original one.

Is there a about:config entry for controlling the different types of data collected in the background? I'm asking because I have them switched off yet the app is still trying transmit.

It would be vary helpful if there was a frame setting that could be changed in the extension so I would not have to change it manually upload it an wait for it to be approved just so I can see the change.

Currently frame inactive is a option but at least on linux that wont change the inactive tab section color. An it does some weird gnome gtk workaround which at least on non-gnome is vary ugly. Personally In wish the team would use anything but gtk in the future.

Frame section:

The color of the header area background, displayed in the part of the header not covered or visible through the images specified in "theme_frame" and "additional_backgrounds".

See example json

"theme": {

 "colors": {
    "frame": "red",
    "tab_background_text": "white"
 }

}

When I open Firefox at start of day, it [laptop] seems slow. Now when I check why with Task Manager I see that one click on Firefox has opened it NINE times when I look at performance. Why? I only need one instance to do my work. So it takes up memory and cpu performance. Ugh turned my laptop into a slow dog! HELP?!

I've recently changed my OS from Suse to Kubuntu. When I used Firefox in Suse there was an option, 'Save Link', which created a .desktop file that I could then click on to load the page. This file could be saved in any folder, which meant it could be filed away in an appropriate place.

When I click on a .desktop file in Kubuntu it will load the page, but there doesn't seem to be a way of creating one with the version of Firefox that has been installed.

Is there a way of one-click creating a .desktop file in Kubuntu that I haven't noticed? (Yes, I can easily create one using Kate, but that could be long-winded for the number of pages I want to save.)

I have the extension LastPass on Firefox and Edge. Edge works fine, but Firefox will let me log in and shows the extension is red, but when I click on "Vault" the page is blank. I can click on "Favorites" and got to one of those websites, but that is all I have access to.

Duplicate Tab, Duplicate Tabs and Reopen Closed Tab don't work. I have making a new tab and copying the URL I need from the original tab. Any idea on how to fix this ?
