I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

So for my main gmail I have 2 step for obvious security reasons, but I want it to trust my PC so that I don't have to pull out my phone every time I try to access it. No matter how many times I click the option to trust this PC it always ask' for the 2 step, and I don't see the PC on the trusted list in my gmail settings. I have already added "mail.google.com" to the exceptions part of the cookie and site data settings, even "account.google.com" but it just doesn't seem to work. What is the obvious thing that I am missing?

Every week or so, I discover that my most visited sites ask me again for cookie consent, meaning whatever I saved the previous time gets removed. This also happens with extensions (for example, I get logged out of my password manager extension). I strongly suspect this happens after Firefox performs updates in the background.

It's incredibly frustrating and I am considering switching to another browser, after using Firefox for more than 10 years. This behavior started this year, and I've been struggling to understand why and what I can do about it.

I would very much appreciate some help on fixing this, it's driving me crazy. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am a developer currently working on an open-source solution called GeoNetwork (https://github.com/geonetwork/core-geonetwork/). This application has a Java backend that uses a JSESSIONID cookie to track user sessions. One instance of the application can be accessed anonymously here: https://sextant.ifremer.fr/Donnees/Catalogue

The session cookie is set on the first request to the backend with the following parameters:

Domain: "sextant.ifremer.fr" expirationDate: "Session" HostOnly: true HttpOnly: true SameSite: "None" Secure: true

This application theoretically allows login in from a different origin. For example from https://www.milieumarinfrance.fr/Acces-aux-donnees/Catalogue, which under the hood points to the same backend. We noticed recently that when accessing the application from a different origin in Firefox, the network requests aimed at the "sextant.ifremer.fr" host *do not carry any existing session cookie*, thus rendering authenticated access impossible.

The existing session cookie is correctly used when I add an "allow" exception for the sextant.ifremer.fr origin in the cookies settings of Firefox (see attached screenshot in French). So I figure that it's Firefox that decides not to use any existing cookie when on this origin.

Is there any way to indicate to Firefox that this cookie is legitimate and that it is needed for essential functionalities, without relying on the user allowing the cookie explicitly?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello, I am trying to get FF to keep some cookies for intranet sites, so that I dont need to login all the time when I open some sites on the intranet. Currently I have: Cookies&Site Data: Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed, An entry in "Manage Exceptions" for each server address (e.g. https://host.domain.tld) with "Allow". Privacy&Security: Use custom settings for history, Clear history when FF closes, in "Settings" everything ticked. But I still need to login on all sites after I closed FF.

How can I avoid this logins everytime I open a site?

About every month or so Firefox decides to delete my login info and i have to relog everywhere again.

While this is not a critical issue, its a very annoying one.

My cookie settings are on standard, and the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" square is unticked. I use Dashlane for my passwords but ive used it for a long time before on mozilla and other browsers and i've never had issues with it.

I used to be able to right click on the yahoo mail tab and it would allow me to select a work, personal etc. yahoo email accounts. This would let me be logged into multiple email accounts at the same time and each one would be on a different tab.

If the browser privacy is supposed to block cross-site cookies, EVEN WITH enhanced tracking prevention and permanent browsing mode enabled, why doesn't it do its job? I still have to go in and revoke the cookie and place that address in the "exceptions - cookies & site data" to block and the same address STILL comes right back. If that feature isn't going to work, there's no point in offering it.

I love Firefox (use it on all devices), but unless an option will actually do what it's supposed to do, don't offer it.

I'm not anywhere close to understanding how to change anything (not technology-suave) so need BIG help on getting rid of ad popups when I'm on email account!

I love Firefox and until lately (before I had to replace my old STOLEN laptop with a new one) and using Yahoo... I have been plagued with hundreds of popup ads! Don't like GOOGLE... think they may be BIG BROTHER!

HELP (simple instructions only for an 80 year old)!

I cannot figure out what the deal is. Every time I launch Firefox I have to re sign into YouTube. I have tried the following troubleshooting methods after looking it up.

Type about:preferences#privacy<enter> in the address bar. The button next to History, select Use Custom Settings.

Turn off Always Use Private Browsing Mode Turn on Remember My Browsing And Download History At the bottom of the page, turn on Clear History When Firefox Closes. At the far right, press the Settings button. Turn on ONLY Cache and Form And Search History leaving the others off.

and whatever else you want.

This is not working I have also disabled all extensions and am still having this issue. It is only with YouTube no other site does this to me.

I am developing a React application with a Flask backend. The Flask backend has a "login" endpoint that sets an authentication cookie that is then supposed to be used to authenticate the end user in future requests to the backend.

After receiving the cookie from the Flask backend, the React app makes a call like so:

```

   const response = await fetch(apiUrl,{
       method: "GET",
       credentials: "same-origin"
   });

```

but Firefox does not include the authentication cookie. I am told this may be because Firefox doesn't store cookies transmitted over HTTPS from localhost.

For obvious reasons, I want Firefox to store the authentication cookie. What can I do to make sure Firefox stores the cookie?

(sorry for bad english) After closing girefox while on window mode, (accidentaly) I reopened it realising none of my accounts were signed in and all websites (youtube, adsense, gmail etc) needed google verification. and they were treating me like i was visiting first time after download. Why is that? Now I have to bring all my data back!!!???!! I am using Windows 8.1 and the latest version of firefox. No other browser installed...

Hi Mozilla,

I've been using the same browser on my desktop computer for like 10 years.

Obviously after one of the updates I couldn't find any of my saved logins/passwords etc. There were a ton of updates over the years but I've never experienced something like this. I can't log in to any website where I had account as all of my data has been wiped out somehow. I just want to say that I'm the only one using this computer, and there is no risk that someone cleared that without my knowledge.

Is there a help for me? This is very frustrating and disappointing.

Thank you! Milos

How do I set Cookies to DEFAULT to 'Allow for Session' When 'Use Default' box is Checked. I would like ALL Website cookies to be set to 'Allow for Session' THEN if I have a Site that I want Cookies set to 'Allow' I would set just that particular Site.

Several times now when I access my banking site and export data, the exported data is not correct. Sometimes columns are missing or columns are in the wrong order. One time even the display showed missing columns. Another example is when I look up a stock quote, sometimes the numbers from previous days are displayed. Troubleshooting with the site manager we found if I cleared cache and cookies, the problem went away. Everything works for several days, then the problem reappears.

Clearing the cookies is simple enough but then I have to be re-verified on all of the sites that require such and that becomes a real pain. (ie. We are sending you a text, please enter the number to continue)

Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge both work fine with this site. Please don't make me switch but I will if this continues.

Hey There,

I feel very well that i am talking with you. Now, When I am working on mozilla i am wacthing lots of issues about cookies. I have removed many time cookies. Would you like to describe the solution?

As the subject says, I logged into my work gmail on my personal laptop, and since then my personal gmail (as well as every other gmail I used on this laptop BEFORE logging into my work one) is now under this Administrator, on all devices. I've contacted the IT department and they said they only had my work gmail under their system. More digging around and I found it to be a cookies issue, as Google Chrome (even after logging in and out of all my gmails personal and work) was absolutely fine and so was Microsoft edge.

No matter how many times I fresh install, clear cookies, or change settings in Firefox, my personal gmail is still locked under restricted mode. Linked below is proof that Google doesn't recognize my account under restriced mode, yet Youtube still says I'm being managed.

I would like my google accounts back, and if I have to wipe all my Firefox data and abandon it, I will. I just don't want to use another browser
