When using the Firefox browser I find that You Tube videos freeze up after a short while, and the whole website becomes unresponsive. I do not have this problem if I use the Chrome browser, so apparently the problem is specific to the Firefox browser.

Since a recent Firefox update it has decided to log me out every single day which is very annoying...I have looked at solutions that only computer guru's would understand and I have no time or desire to trouble shoot this. Therefore, I will be using a different browser until this problem is solved.

Thank you

I recently bought a new computer and transferred all the data from my old computer to this new one. My old computer was running ESR, which was transferred to my new computer.

Without downloading a fresh install of Firefox and having to lose everything, is there a way to simply move over to the release channel of firefox? I tried syncing it up with my account but I still lost my history. Fortunately, I still have the ESR version of Firefox on my computer.

I tried to import but Firefox ESR wasn't an option.

When I go to linkedin.com, it gets stuck on the loading screen and never progresses to a usable site. It worked fine on August 22nd but was broken on the 23rd, and I don't think anything on my end updated overnight. I haven't noticed an issue on any other websites. Is there a way to fix this?

  • Works fine on safari and chrome.
  • No change when I disable adblockers.
  • Restarting firefox did not fix it.
  • Deleting cookies and clearing the cache did not fix it.

Thanks!

Hello. I was browsing for something on Amazon and I noticed this annoying icon in my search bar as well as a popup asking me to enable some new feature called "Review Checker". I have clicked close, and it appeared again. Then I clicked Not Now. Still I wasn't sure it's completely disabled because the icon in the search bar wasn't gone. I've done extensive search on how to properly disable this feature but I couldn't find a working solution.

For example, there are some config flags suggested here, https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/disable-review-checker/td-p/47370 and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1443734

Accordingly, I've set browser.shopping.experience2023, browser.shopping.experience2023.ads.enabled, and browser.shopping.experience2023.enabled to FALSE. I restarted Firefox. However, once I got to the product page on Amazon, I still see the Review Checker button in my search bar. This feels like a bug. Should I submit a bug ticket or is there a way to make it disappear for good?

How do I prevent Firefox/duckduckgo from instead of opening a newspaper site (eg: www.nytimes.com), INSTEAD opening the site with "feed" in front of it (eg: feed://www.nytimes.com)?

The web browser does this all the time, and I almost never want the site with "feed:" in front of it.

Advice on how to change the settings to prevent this would be welcome. I suspect this happened with an update but ever since has been continuous.

Only happens on my laptop, not on my iPhone. I have an Apple M1 chip MacBookPro, running MacOS Sonoma 14.5. My Firefox browser is the latest version.

I accidentally disabled the keyboard shortcut for media browsing. For example, I was able to fast forward by 10 seconds by tapping the right arrow on my keyboard, but this has now been disabled. I cannot figure out how to get back to settings to re-enable this feature (checked online, in Mozilla support pages and on Mozilla community)

I think I tapped Ctrl + left arrow to bring up the settings box when I accidentally disabled the keyboard shortcut. Any help would be appreciated

Greetings...

In the Settings > Privacy & Security > History > Clear browsing data and cookies > Automatically clear all checked items when Firefox closes, I have the "Temporary cached files and pages" selected to be automatically cleared when I close Firefox.

Unfortunately, this does not appear to be working, in that when I reopen Firefox and immediately check the Cookies and Site Data or the History sections, the Temporary cached files contains the same MB of files that appeared before I closed Firefox.

Any idea why this setting appears not to be working as described and expected? Please advise. Thank you very much for your assistance. Take care...
