I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

My laptop died. I purchased a new one and pulled the SSD drive from the dead laptop and hooked it up to the new laptop with a SATA to USB cable and have access to the drive now. How do I pull all the information that was in Firefox (bookmarks, open tabs when laptop died, etc.) from the old drive to the new laptop?

Website fonts are often garbled. See attached screenshot. I've tried the other suggestions mentioned here but nothing changes; it's still happening. I'm on a 2020 iMac with a 3.3 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5 processor with Mac OS 14.1.1 and Firefox 120.0 (64-bit).

Help?

When I try to use firefox, the pages won't load. If I turn off my VPN, everything works like it should. I've been using Firefox and using the VPN for years, so this is a new problem, I think less than a week old. How can I use firefox with my VPN? Thank you, Steve

My online pharmacy, connected to HumanaCenterWell, no longer opens in Firefox. A message "forgerock, redirect_uri_mismatch" appears. It did work until a few months ago and it does work on Google.

Hello,

NOTICE: Currently using Firefox 120.0.1 "Update disabled by your system administrator" I am unable to update the browser, the computers are from the public library.

Like I state in the Subject, I configure the browser to strict privacy level, and I am able to visit any site I want. No problem. But on all of these, when I click the lock icon on the address bar I read "Connection verified by a certificate issuer that is not recognized by Mozilla." In fact, right now, I am visiting this website and I got that notice. View image "Firefox broser does not recognize the certificate issuer fortinet but I can visit the firefox suport website - Screenshot 2024-01-28 172732.png"

WOW... View the image "certificate issuer not recognized by Firefox - fortinet - when visiting support.firefox.com - Screenshot 2024-01-28 173041.png" for some of the info I get if I view more information about the certificate.

Then, after I logged out, the "Clear cookies and site data" link that appears after clicking the lock icon I mentioned before do not appear.

View the image "UNable to clear cookies and site data - proton.me - Screenshot 2024-01-28 141951 - edited.png"

In this same computer, I got the control "Clear cookies and site data." View image "able to clear cookies and site data - virustotal.com - Screenshot 2024-01-28 141825.png"

So more than one question:

I read other posts where users are unable to visit a website which has a certificate issued by an issuer that is not recognized by Mozilla. Why am I able to visit these websites?

What can I expect of the non appearing "Clear cookies and site data" link I described before?

Are these computers like totally hacked?

I have been using Firefox to log into the Social Security site for years. Today, I am unable to log in, after trying several approaches. I switched to Chrome and was able to log in immediately. What has changed in Firefox?

Unrelated issue. On this page is an option to "share data." When I tried it, nothing showed up, but there was a link to explain how to do it manually. When I went back to this page, it was blank, and I had to start over again. Not good website design!

When I sign in on my Microsoft Account FF Password Manager Does nothing. I open up the passwords but the manager does nothing. How do I correct this? It is as if FF does not recognize I am being prompt for login info. This only happens with this cite. Thank You for your time Mike

My computer died. I was using windows 10. On my new computer (windows 11) my old bookmarks are not on the mozilla browser where they used to be. Can I get them back?

Moderators, I am copy and pasting the below warning I have seen on similar posts at the top of the post.

--- WARNING: This script is not provided by Mozilla and is not officially supported Creating a userChrome.css file and other ways of customizing Firefox that are not exposed in the interface are there for developers, not end-users. If it were intended for end-users, you would see a menu option or checkbox; you wouldn't have to hack a text file in a hidden location.

What this means is that even though the functionality you want is no longer supported, a third-party has found a way to do it using the CSS file. If it breaks in new versions, you will need to contact the person who provided the script.

[Warning was not added by moderator, but by me to save someone time.] ---

With that out of the way, here's the issue I have, how I've solved it temporarily for the community.

When I load YouTube videos, I am given a statuspanel message with the URL of the video playing. It's not momentary or temporary, it stays there, the entire time. Why anyone thought this was a good idea, I'm not sure.

My question is simple, is there an alternative solution - to remove this statuspanel message permentantly - to what I'm sharing here, without using the userChrome.css file?

If so, please provide the solution so it can be tested and upvoted by the community, thank you in advance if that is you.

If there is not, then this post also serves as solution as well as a request to Modzila, that being.

Modzilla. Please make a solution that doesn't need custom .css scripts.

I am posting this as I needed multiple posts to achieve a solution so am hoping this serves as that for someone (including myself) until Firefox resolves this issue themselves, another way.

Solution: Windows 7/8/10/11 as of Firefox version 120.0

1. Go to about:config, click Accept the Risk and Continue 2. Type "toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets", toggle this to true 3. Close all instances of Firefox 4. Open Explorer, navigate to %appdata% then navigate down to \Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and select your profile folder. If you only have 1 it may be obvious, if not for me it's the only "~.default-release" folder, where ~ is a random set or letters and numbers. If you're unsure, pick the first folder named like this, then repeat the next steps for all profile folders, or use trial and error if you prefer until you achieve the desired result. 5. Make a new folder "chrome" in that folder. 6. In this folder make a new .css file, right click make a new .txt file rename the file and extension "userChrome.css". 6. Open the blank .css file with a text editor and paste this line without quotes "#statuspanel {display:none!important;}" and save. 7. Attempt to load videos or pages where messages usually appear in the bottom left and observe the results

There are various other posts both here and other places that I have combined to write this solution, none of the others worked on their own, for me, which is why I write this and to refresh the request to the Modzilla Firefox team, to please, share or make a solution so we don't have to do this, as you'll otherwise need to continue supporting this legacy feature in future versions of Firefox.

Note: This will likely remove all statuspanel messages on other pages too, I have read other statuspanel commands online so if you want to be particular about muting some and not others, you may need to modify the file further.

Firefox is pissing me off. I want to disable SSL security checks long enough to do what needs doing. I'm working from a container so there's really no risk, just need the browser to do what I want not what 'It' wants.

peace

I am trying to go to ace hardware site. I get: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.acehardware.com/store-locator" on this server. Reference #18.26761cb8.1701661935.890df303 .

The search bar reads: https://www.acehardware.com. Why does my Firefox/Mozilla do this? How can I fix it? Help please, Wendyh

When I open firefox it opens on the "success" page it should open on my selected page Yahoo.com

this happened after I ran the "refresh firefox" option

Hi, Every time I try to open Firefox, a window pops up and asks to let it make changes to my computer. I checked the properties and I am not running Firefox as an administrator, which is what all the help pages said is the problem. I do not want to change the settings in my computer that would make the pop ups asking to make changes go away, as that is a significant security risk. Surely there must be another way to fix this issue? I have used Firefox for years without this problem and it is only just now happening. I love Firefox but this extra step is extremely annoying. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

All items except but the top one (privacy) in the right-side menu in vimeo are partially hidden and so not fully functional. This problem does not occur in Microsoft Edge, and so it evidently is a Firefox problem. My system: AMD 3900X Running Windows 10 Home, Nvidia GTX950 graphics card, 32 GB memory, The image is a reduced-size screenshot from a 1920 x 1080 monitor. Adjusting the width of the window for Friefox has no effect on the problem.

Greetings...

On a daily basis, I access a group of websites that use the same username and password for login, so logging into one of the websites automatically enables my access to each of the group websites, as a result of a cookie created by the initial login. As a result, I encounter only one login challenge as I actively access each of the group websites.

However, beginning in October, I began to experience repeated login challenges after I had successfully logged into one of the group websites. The repeated login challenges occur randomly whenever I selected a hotlink within the website. The repeated login challenges occur either within the website that I initially logged into or one of the subsequent group websites that I selected to access.

The only changes to my Firefox web browser have been the periodic version updates. I have tried making changes to the Firefox Privacy & Security settings, but the repeated login challenges continue.

I have also contacted the group websites support and advised them of this problem, but they have been unable to provide any assistance.

Could the repeated login challenges be caused by a periodic version update to my Firefox web browser? If not, then what else might be the cause?

Thank you in advance for your help!
