a href is not working in firefox, the text is not clickable. It only becomes clickable and works when i inspect the element.

the href are not working. The text is not made clickable when i hover and does nothing when i click. I've tried resetting Firefox, checked there are no proxies but nothing's changed. In Google chrome they work fine.
Can anyone suggest a solution?

In my capacity as the world's #1 computer dummy, it seemed to me that my above question would be self explanatory but I'll try to elaborate further: I received a pop-up message on my screen that an update was available for Adobe Reader so I opened the Firefox add-on page where I clicked on the the reader update button. While that update was in process I noticed that an update was also available for an extension entitled "open about:permissions" and having never noticed or encountered this item previously, I clicked on the link to open the related home page as I most always do in such cases in order to increase my knowledge (which I admit is pretty limited) and found the page to be written in Polish or some other eastern european language which stopped me short. I then looked on my menu bar for the the translate icon which used to be there but had disappeared somewhere along the line which again stopped me short. To avoid clicking my way down another dead end road, I did what I thought was the obvious thing and posted the above question. I'd like to get some information about what that extension is used for and either keep it updated or else delete it if I have no use for it since this computer is already slow enough without loading it with useless junk. I'd also like to reinstall a translate program if you can recommend a good one that won't uninstall itself when I'm not looking. If I remember correctly, the one I used to have installed just sat there quietly keeping an eye on the incoming data and automatically translated into English anything incoming in a foreign language.
Thanks Much to anyone who feels like helping

XMarks is closing. Eversync is unreliable. So the only sync in town for Firefox users is Firefox Sync.
That makes it a shame that Mozilla doesn't have a review page, where users can rate Firefox Sync and talk over their experiences. It would greatly reassure potential users.
Also, Firefox Sync is under-documented. Does it have, like XMarks, a facility by which users can access their bookmarks when they cannot access their local browsers, e.g. when travelling? No way of knowing, without trying it! Does it sync Folders and the arrangement of links within folders accurately? No way of knowing, without trying it! Does it allow uploads to the server, downloads from the server? No way of knowing, without trying it!
Come on Firefox, a few pages of documentation, please!

Hi All,
Recently I noticed that downloading files using file manager is stopping at random times giving an error that hard drive can't keep up with the incoming data. I checked the Task Manager and noticed high I/O read bytes for FF. I was monitoring this for some time. After initial opening the amount of read data increased to 200MB within 5 seconds. Then when I was using the FF it increased to 1GB. On one occasion it reached 16BG within 4 minutes. This is causing my disk to slow down. The amount of data read I think depends on how many tabs I have open and how intensively I'm using FF.
Can someone help me to identify what is causing this?
Latest version of FF is used Add-ons and plug ins up-to-date Windows 10 x64
Thanks

Well, I've been doing Firefox sync for a long time, and it seems to work pretty well. But I'm a little confused. What EXACTLY is going on? Note: I do NOT want to know how to set up sync. I know that.
First question. When sync is automatic, when exactly does it do it? I pull down and do "Open menu" with the three bars, and then hover over the sync arrows-in-the round. It might say "Last sync: 5 minutes ago", and it might say "Last sync: 5 seconds ago". Nothing happened on my Firefox five seconds ago or five minutes ago. So who told it to sync? What determines when it is supposed to sync? I presume Firefox automatically does a sync if you change a bookmark or password.
Second question. What exactly is a sync? I gather that if the sync file (containing bookmarks and everything) in the cloud is younger than the local sync file, the local sync file will be replaced by the one in the cloud. If the sync file in the cloud is older than the local sync file, that sync file in the cloud is replaced by the local one. Is that what's going on? That is, it's all about the time stamp? Do not tell me "Sync lets you share all of your data and preferences (such as your bookmarks, history, passwords, open tabs and installed add-ons) across all your devices." I know that.
Third question. Let's suppose I want sync to ONLY be manual. As in, it will ONLY sync when I do Tools>Sync Now. How do I set it up for that?

Hey there,
is it possible to Sync Bookmarks without Internet? For example, in a Windows-Based Domain-Network? I have a Domain-Server an medium amount of clients, who needs a browser to access some Browser-Based Systems via IP-Adress. This systems change eventually and I am looking for a way, to make the life for the client more easy.

I understand the basic concepts of tracking protection but I've been unable to find answers to a few specific questions. I found some documentation here in the questions / answers section but it didn't provide all the answers.
1. Do I need to clear existing cookies to remove the myriad of sites already tracking me before turning on tracking protection? Or, will turning it on do an immediate filter on my existing cookies?
2. Will turning off tracking stop sites that I want to retain login information for from retaining the "login" cookie infor i.e. are we close to a full "cookie block" with anti-tracking? Or does FFox have some creative algorithm (or list) that allows it to distinguish between tracking cookies and less offensive cookies? Concurrently, is there a way to allow a "tracking cookie" if I need it to retain information for a site I'm comfortable with?
3. One specific tracking question: Will eliminating tracking cookies stop (specifically) Google's cross site advertising, where you look at a product on site A (who shares that info via google) and then a little later google's advertising mechanism pops up those products when you're at site B?

I was troubleshooting an issue where Firefox was not loading an Extension as expected in Firefox 55 32bit. From looking at the Javascript calls the old Plugin which is still available was able to be loaded by Firefox. We found that plugin.load_flash_only was set to False on the affected browser. When we changed this back to plugin.load_flash_only = True, the extension then properly loaded.
I thought from documentation that the workaround was disabled in Firefox 53+? Was this recently changed or inadvertently re-enabled?
