I-Firefox Community Forum

Hello Support Team,

Since updating to the newest Firefox instance, anytime I try to login to my Hotmail/Outlook account I get the following error: "You've tried to sign in too many times with an incorrect account or password." If I wait several hours I can login with the Firefox browser into my Hotmail/Outlook account successfully. This happens every singe time I try to login to the site after a period of time. Alternatively I can go to any other browser and login immediately with no issues.

Troubleshooting:

• Removed/Reinstalled Antivirus/Firewall Software (Did Not Resolve)
• Removed/Reinstalled Firefox with fresh instance (Did Not Resolve)
• Disabled Extensions (Did Not Resolve)
• Disabled Privacy Settings (Did Not Resolve)
• Cleared Cookies, History, Cache (Did Not Resolve)
• Cleared Forms (Did Not Resolve)
• Tried Private Window (Did Not Resolve)
• Tried Troubleshooting Mode (Did Not Resolve)

I don't want to have to switch to another browser for my browsing needs, but this has become a major issue for me. What else can we do to troubleshoot and resolve this issue?

Thank you in advance for your time.

Cheers, Jason

The picture-in-picture setting use to keep the detached video visible if I scrolled the original or source page past the video player. Now the detached video disappears and reverts back to the source page when I scroll this control out of view. Is this change intentional and permanent?

I have years of bookmarks that have disappeared and my history is missing. Firefox opens with the tabs that were open when it shut down. I really want my bookmarks back.

Hello Mozilla Support Team,

from yesterday playback speed on youtube is not working. When I open the same video with Edge playback speed is available.

Could you please check and rework?

Thanks in advance.

Many greetings Stefan

I installed Firefox yesterday, and everything was fine for a day. Today, when I play a YouTube video, the entire page freezes - I can't pause it, select text, or do anything. The page starts responding after about 10 seconds from last interaction.

Compared to Chrome, I can play 20 YouTube videos at once and everything works fine.

The problem only occurs on YouTube. Sites like CDA and Jellyfin work fine.

I admit, I don't read about updates so I don't know when Firefox did all these "enhancements"...but I'd love to know how to turn my mouse wheel BACK into a "scroll through the page" only function. I hate it auto opening links, I hate it scrolling through tabs. I suspect it of doing other "helpful" functions...and I can't even find the right words to do a search for this. The only applicable setting I found is "autoscroll"...which is turned off in my preferences...and which the browser STILL does.

All I want is for my wheel to scroll through the page...under my control. No auto-stuff. There's no setting for this in my mouse controls, as far as I've been able to determine, and it didn't used to do this. It must be in a Firefox update. Is this even possible any longer? Or am I, after decades with Firefox, going to have to change browsers? At this point, I've had far too many important operations disrupted and even fouled by this "helpful" change.

Pleeeease help?

when I tried to download the app, it says i already have an account but I don't know my password?? I do have Mozilla as my browser but I have been using Outlook for my emails.

I'm trying to stop Firefox from restoring tabs after I restart my OS. So far, I've done the following:

• Disabled `Startup > Open Previous Windows and Tabs`
• Disabled all extensions
• Confirmed I do not have a `user.js` file
• Set `browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash` to `false`
• Set `browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand` to `false`
• Set `browser.sessionstore.resuming_after_os_restart` to `false` (It was already set this way.)
• Set `browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes` to `0`
• Set `privacy.clearOnShutdown.openWindows` to `true`
• Set `browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo` to `0`
• Set `browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo` to `0`

(I've since reverted the last two and the extension changes after they didn't work.)

So far, Firefox will not restore tabs on application restart (manually closing and relaunching) or on crashing (after sending SIGTERM/SIGKILL), but it still restores tabs after restarting the OS (if I allow the OS to kill it during shutdown). I've seen a couple suggestions to disable history completely, but I do occasionally refer to my browsing history, so I'd prefer a less-drastic approach. Ideally, I just want Firefox to treat the first launch after a shutdown as a normal launch and not apply any special behavior. Any help would be much appreciated!
