I do not have any ad blockers and have disabled "Block pop-up windows" in Firefox and turned off "Enhanced Tracking Protection" for sites but I still get the message that I am blocking ads.

After last update Firefox will not open my Weebly website editor.

It keeps telling me that Firefox will not allow the page to be displayed if another site has embedded it. It advises me to open the link in a new window.

This does not work - I get the same error message. I need to be able to edit my website! Can anyone help, please?

I keep getting notifications, supposedly from Mozilla and/or Microsoft on lower right of my screen, telling me the system is infected. How do i determine if these messages are valid, or a scam ? Turned computer off and back on--messages keep popping up.

I'm hoping to get some help with disabling the Insecure connection password warning in Firefox version 115.11.0.

In previous versions, I could disable this warning through the about:config settings. However, I couldn't find the specific setting (security.insecure_field_warning.contextual.enabled) that was mentioned in some online resources.

I understand the security risks involved in disabling these warnings, and I only intend to do this on a trusted website on my local network.

Could you please advise on the best approach for achieving this in Firefox 115.11.0, or any alternative solutions to manage insecure connection warnings for trusted local sites?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I have a Logitech Streamcam that I have been having some problems with. I noticed that Firefox stopped working with my Webcam some time ago and I can't seem to figure out why.

My webcam works fine on Chrome and using the camera app on my desktop. I hooked the webcam up to my Macbook and was able to connect to it just fine, even using Firefox.

I tested my webcam using this website: https://webcamtests.com/check When I go there I get this error message: "Could not find a web camera, however there are other media devices (like speakers or microphones). Most likely, this means that your webcam is not working properly or your browser cannot access it."

When I try to have it forcibly start the camera it gives me this error message: "NotFoundError: The object can not be found here.; DOMException".

I tried clearing the cache, running Firefox in safe mode, clearing all privacy and security settings, and reinstalling Firefox but none of it help, I also tried clearing the cache and got the same result.

Windows security settings show Firefox last accessed my webcam on 2021-11-08 and there are no access requests from Firefox since then.

Any idea of whats going on or what troubleshooting I can do from here?

I have a question about using Firefox PDF Editor. I copied some text from a PDF document that is on my computer, by highlighting the text and then hitting Ctrl+C. The text copied onto my clipboard OK. Then I opened a blank PDF document in the Firefox PDF Editor and tried to paste that text into the blank document, but I wasn't able to do so because when I right-clicked on the blank document and then clicked on "paste", nothing happened. This apparently is because the word "paste" is faded-out in the drop-down menu (i.e., it does not appear in prominent bold print). Google's Artificial Intelligence seems to indicate that the technique I used would work (see screenshot which I've uploaded). But it didn't work, so can anyone please tell me how can I paste text into that blank document?

Please assist or advise why Firefox seems to be slowing down my system by memory usage. I have a handful (6) of tabs open on 1 browser session and my system started slowing down so I checked my task manager and it shows that I have more than a dozen of Firefox instances open chewing up almost 90% of my memory.

Please assist or advise me on how to tweak my browser to perform better, and not to show ghost instances

I signed up & paid for Mozilla Monitoring Premium. I get monthly reports from then, but when I click on "automatically delete data from brokers," I'm asked to sign up for Premium again. Please help.

I am on endeavourOS (linux). Whenever I try to upload images for a profile picture to sites like youtube or X, the image becomes corrupted and doesn't upload correctly. It did this with whatsapp too and I had to use a separate app for it. Other posts said that disabling "privacy.resistFingerprinting" would fix it, but it's already disabled.

Attached below are an example of this bug and the contents of this image when viewed on a text editor.

I love firefox. I recommend it to everyone. Because it's the only browser that appeared to have my best interest at heart. I develop extensions firefox-first rather than chrome-first. I don't want generative AI getting anywhere near any of my things, and I'm sorry to say I've switched to Waterfox for now. Please backtrack on this, I just want to use the internet without AI plastered in my face :<

The latest version of Firefox desktop has changed the "custom history" settings lumping forms and history with browsing history and downloads history. Before these were all separate options which was much more useful. How can I get the old menu back?

I don't want to just untick the higher menu "remember search and form history" as I want firefox to remember form and search history during a session - I often have firefox open for several hours at a time. But I do want to know when I close firefox that it will purge form history, but keep browsing and download history.

Why does Mozilla's new CEO feel the need to bloat and mine data in the browser I downloaded to escape that in other browsers? Can I not escape AI in one place? I come to Mozilla Firefox for one reason and one reason alone and y'all suddenly seem very keen on getting rid of this reason.

i need set a default exception website for pop-up blocker settings fore every firefox install. or completely disable pop-up blocker settings as default.

what can i do for this purpose?

getting "SYSTEM WARNING" , " McAfee license expired " , " Trojan Detected " popup notifications continually after following a link on Linked In . Windows finds no threat in its quick scan . Popups occur even when Mozilla closed .

I've used Firefox for a long time because it's been one of the few browsers that doesn't force features that harm its users onto the userbase. It's been leagues beyond the majority for that long time! The introduction of AI features over time has been a bell ringing for the loss of that thoughtful approach to aiding the users. AI in browsers has been used by malicious third parties to steal the data of anyone who visits specific sites, it's prone to misinformation when used to summarize anything, and simply doesn't add any value to the browsing experience. It gets in the way and slows it down, even! If more AI features are added, I will be finding a different browser to use.

For months, now, whenever I try to post a comment on a Yahoo! News article, it reads: "Your comment has failed to published." This only happens in Firefox. My "Privacy & Security" settings are set to "Standard," my "History" set to "use custom settings for history" with settings "Remember browsing and download history" and "Clear history when Firefox closes." so cookies and cache get cleared then.

Sometimes this works when starting a new session. But I shouldn't have to start another session and lose all of my logins just to post a comment on a Yahoo News article.

Anyone else having this problem? Is there an easy and permanent fix? What are you settings set at?

For a while now i click on a username box and the drop down menu is full of links relating to the site e.g when i use reddit, the username drop down menu is full of links i have copied in the past and usernames from other sites.
