I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Hi, hope you are doing well, this is a bit of a complaint and a 'please fix these things' as well as a question.

2 main things: "Restore Previous Session" does not seem to be working at all, 'Manage History' window is not nearly as fleshed out as it needs to, as manually combing through my search history to find the lost tabs looks like a monumental task fit for Sisyphus.

I was away from my computer and hadn't turned it on for about a week, I come back to it and it appears to only have 2 tabs open... out of the 45-ish I previously had open. The 'Restore Previous Session' tool was not able to be used mysteriously.

I spend a few hours trying to find a way to get my tabs back, to no success. It was late so I didn't comb my history for the tabs. I do however, transfer all the tabs I had open on my phone to my PC. about 60-ish tabs (I have a problem yes).

Then today my house has a power outage, shutting off my PC and when i turn it on i see... no 'restore previous session' button to use. After having a cry, I combed my search history and restored all of yesterday's tabs, which was thankfully easy to do because i only had to comb through yesterday's search history. The "Restore Previous Session" tool seems broken to me.

But to comb through all my history for my previous session's tabs, I have to use the 'Manage History' window. I have some problems with this. - the history list Columns and Sorting are too basic i.e. It has no "when tab closed" tag, so i can't clearly see all the tabs that closed at once. - No way to separate which device's search history, my phone's history is mixed in with my PC's, making it super messy. - I can't highlight and open multiple tabs at once, making reopening dozens of tabs very tedious.

- Firefox can 'sync' my tabs and history, but i would like to be able to have both devices have the EXACT same tabs open, like 2 devices accessing the same browser terminal. If it were this way, my tabs would never be out of my sight and both devices would have to be messed with to really lose the session. Can this be done?

Something has clearly gone wrong for my computer to be shut down and for the 'Restore previous Session' button not be available. I am a uni student and i am worried i may lose dozens of important research tabs at once - multiple times - because of what looks like a technical issue with no elegant work around.

Please help me out. At the very least please tell me how I can see WHEN my tabs closed so I can IDENTIFY them at an easy glance.

Sorry for the long note, losing around 50 tabs, twice, shook me to my core.

So starting yesterday (potentially with the v110 updated?) I began to notice some issues with my network that were most noticeable when on voice/video calls. As I do work remotely, this obviously has become quite a problem and I have needed to shift towards Edge and/or teams just to take these calls. It essentially reaches the point where I cannot use video nor talk.

When checking task manager, firefox also seems to be eating up a larger portion of the CPU and Memory than it has previously. This of course extends if I were to use another tool, such as Skype, for a video call. When closing out of firefox completely, I can use skype or edge video calls without any trouble. However, only while firefox is running, I seem to have trouble with the connection.

All other browsers seem to work without trouble. Image 1 find a speed test for firefox and notice the obvious dip midway for both download and upload.

Image 2 is the speed test when using edge.

The only difference between the speed test is the browser. All background programs and tabs within the browser remained the same. I loaded all tabs and waited 15 minutes before performing each speed test.

I've checked the usual culprits and tried clearing my cache, power cycling the router, reinstalling firefox, setting network.http.http3.enable to false in the config, downgrading to v109 (and v108), etc. I am fairly confident it is not my machine nor internet causing the issue at this stage, giving that all other devices and network reliant software works without trouble.

I did see some mention of trying troubleshoot mode, but that did not seem to alleviate the issues I am having.

Any additional insights or suggestions would be appreciated!

Good day

It can happen that screenshots of web pages do not show the whole web page although you have selected "whole web page". The screenshot is max. 32767 pixel high.

Example: https://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries If you want to have a "whole" screenshot of the website, the image is cut off after "privacy. sanitize. promptOnSanitize".

As a new max. for width and height I suggest 1 048 576 x 1 048 576 pixel. A zoom function would also be useful for large images.

Have a nice day

I manage thousands of IP cameras across different sites that display this warning message every time the website is visited. This warning requires additional time spent to dismiss and continue with the login. I want to bypass this warning by any means neccessary for all websites because importing the certificates for each device is not feasible. I heard this is no longer an option that is supported in firefox, which is strange for a browser that was supposed to be the "android" of the web, yet doesn't allow the user to customize the experience beyond disabling updates and customizing the toolbar.

So I just cleared my cookies and Cache for my web browswer since Youtube looked like it was having some kind of issue, and when I went to go sign into my email, I got a very odd message. I signed in as usual, but I got a 400 error message, saying the server can't process the request because it's malformed. I have no idea what's going on here. I'm using version 110.0.1 of Firefox. Just updated earlier yesterday and up till fifteen minutes ago, everything was working fine. What happened?!

I'm including a screenshot of what I'm seeing. Please help!

Edit: I managed to figure it out. Somehow Gstatic was blocked on Noscript. Sorry for the confusion!

recently installed bitdefender and it keeps reporting "firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to base9-hx.diltwo.com. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since websites must renew their certificates with a certification authority to stay current, and outdated security certificates represent a risk." it then asks if i want to add to exceptions. please explain. thanks

Previous to the last update I was able to use Firefox to access the Nest camera, now not. It's ok using MS Edge. I keep having to enter my gmail & password over & over yet never connects.

Secure Connection Failed! It is continuously checking mail server capability. I have an authentication problem with Thunderbird since the update yesterday 102.8.0. It was working fine before that, but now I can't receive emails, but I can send them.

Secure connection failed The document contains no data.The page you are trying to view can not be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

   I have checked the IMAP with my protonmail and it is correct - nothing has changed there.
   I have gone into my Virus protection and cleared the caches etc.
   I have gone into tools and cleared recent history.
   i have read through rheems of articles and suggestions on the Mozilla page - but cant fix this problem.

The last email I received was from a regular friend - but an error message came up suggesting that their email/server could not be verified - I clicked to make an exception. I don't know how to get back to this place to undo this exception - in case this is the problem.

Quite a number of times I am unable to get oneDrive or MS Outlook to load in Firefox. It comes up quickly on Edge browser. i have to remove cookies for Live.com then close and restart Firefox to get them to load.

I randomly get this issue, I enter URL and tab does nothing, even on F5, I open a new tab enter the same URL and it loads.

Maybe there are 10-15tabs open, CPU load is not high, plenty of RAM,

Very weird, like it wasn't even trying to do DNS query. As I remember I couldn't even open Network traffic log in tab, because page hasn't started loading yet.

I had an old problem with Firefox that has returned, probably because of a new update some months back.

When I click on the icon to open the web, there is a very bright white screen for a mili-second or two. It is painful to my old eyes and retinas! Then it jumps into the dark mode screen that I need and prefer.

This happened once before, but eventually an update seemed to have ended the bright white pop-flash screen. Alas, it is back. I run a Lenovo M900, Win10Pro OS and "blessed Mozilla" keeps my Firefox browser up-to-date.

I use the listen function to convert text to speech, but it comes out of my system speakers even if my default speaker is my headphones. How can I change where the audio is output in Firefox?

I am having trouble with sites: shoprite.com, citibank/card.com, pnc.com and others. They are not executing some command when I am online but I go to Google Chrome and they work. When it does not respond to a I have cleared data many times but it does not seem to help.

What is the solution? I have used Firefox for many many years without major issues like this. I do not want to use any other browser but if I cannot get consistency I will be forced to.

the last update shoots the memory consumption to the roof

everytime I left the browser unnatended something in the background activates and my ram is devoured

Hello,

I switched on my Firefox and several problems appeared seemingly out of nowhere: - the 3-bar menu button doesn't work - bookmarks are gone - add-ons are gone - history is gone and new history does not create - the about:preferences#privacy page is blank - about:preferences shows Your browser is being managed by your organization., but the computer is private

When I type in the address bar, it shows suggestions from my history before the problems appeared.

Thanks for any suggestions.

HI All,

   I cannot update my laptop from Firefox browser v103 to v109, and I couldn't find any log regarding to the failed update. Since my laptop cannot connect to internet, it is not updated with the new cert. Do you think that is the cause of problem?

Please advise. Thank you very much for your help.

Recently Firefox start to freeze or not responding randomly. I have 2 PCs and 1 laptop, it only occurs on my home PC and not the others.

At first I thought it's because of corrupted places database since it starts to happen when I delete some bookmarks on the other PC. But I tried to fix corrupted bookmarks like in the article but it doesn't solve my problem.
