suddenly have to pass a bot test using drum sounds or weird images before I can get to my email. I've been using Firefox to access email at att.yahoo.com for many months with no problem. Now I cannot get in. My idea of snare drums is obviously not the right answer. the weird images are worse. I've cleared the browsing history and cache per the instructions and it didn't help. ATT said it was because updates were done--or not done--to Firefox that caused the problem. When I pull up settings, it says Firefox is updated automatically and I'm up to date.

 so do I just give up and go back to Edge?

Thank you for any help (I am not Luddite, but not a tech wizard either--so detailed help would be great!)

Hello, apologies if I've chosen the wrong topic area but the options felt a little ambiguous for my issue.

I had a pop-up on my Firefox today inviting me to sign up for the free 50gb VPN thing, it brought me to the accounts.firefox.com page which says "Activate Firefox’s built-in VPN for extra privacy", I press the blue 'Continue' button and absolutely nothing happens. I tried disabling all my extensions just in case one of them is causing an issue, but no success there either.

Is this a known issue, in which case I'll try again later when it's sorted; or is there another way I can redeem the offer?

I purchased a new computer and I saved all my bookmarks from my old computer, as directed in the instructions into a html file and put it on a flash drive. When I go thru the suggested process to import these files from the flash drive, they do not go into the main 'bookmarks toolbar folder in the bookmarks drop down, they install as a separate file in the last section at the bottom as a separate file. Every time I attempt to import the html file of old bookmarks, it goes in the 4th section of the bookmarks drop down as a new folder called ' bookmarks toolbar'. Example: if I import the html file 10 times I then have 10 new 'bookmarks toolbar' folders in the 4th section. As I had before... for several years... I want all my book marks in the drop down tab in the 3rd section (see attachment) 'bookmarks toolbar' which sits just above the 'other bookmarks' file... not in a folder below in the 4th section. Help...

This issue only pertains to the Chinese language and is not a website problem. In the startup settings, when the option to open previous windows and tabs is enabled, after keeping several web pages and re-entering the browser, Firefox will attempt to open the previous tabs. However, if a new tab is selected at this time, the search bar should normally display 'Use Baidu to search, or enter a URL,' but in reality, the characters for 'Baidu' appear as garbled text. This bug consistently occurs in this version. This issue only appeared after I automatically updated Firefox a few days ago; I have never encountered this problem before. May I ask everyone, how should this problem be resolved?

When searching for any type of URL or page on Firefox, unexpected things have been occurring. The most common action is that the Recent Browsing page opens up instead of the page I was seeking. I can get to that page by clicking the tab, but it obviously should not be happening. Sometimes, I only see a completely blank page in white or gray. Again, I can get to the page by clicking the tab. A momentary blink occurs regularly when going to a new page.

I have cleaned up any unused or unimportant extensions and add-ons, since that was suggested as one cause. So far I have not taken a suggestion to clear all cookies and cache because of all the beneficial browsing that deletes. I have also not totally deleted the Firefox app because I am not sure a reinstall of all of my bookmarks, the homescreen with my 32 preset URLs, etc. will come back.

So I am looking for advice on what steps I should take to resolve this, in order of first taking the least destructive and problematic actions. Thanks, Joe

Since a few days the free VPN in Firefox doesn't work anymore. When I activate it and try to load a website, i get the message: Connection with VPN failed. Try again in a few minutes. It also says, that my connection is possibly not private and that an app can possibly see my data traffic. The VPN always used to work fine, and I didn't change anything.
