I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Now iOS let’s you set different default browsers I was hoping it would be possible to then open links in the gmail app with Firefox. However when you try to select a default browse within the gmail app Firefox doesn’t even appear on the list, even if you have it installed and set as the system default - the only options it presents are chrome or safari...am I missing something or is this just an issue with the gmail app either awaiting an update or trying to force me to use chrome?

I have started getting alerts from Norton 360 regarding "malicious browser extension activity 4" from a website called https://tribedone.org. I have no idea what the website is (I can't reach it) but the alert is showing very often and Norton requires a shutdown each time it detects and repairs the issue. Any suggestions please? Screenshot attached.

When I connect from Ubuntu 20 (LTS) this message shows and it redirects me to the mobile version. That's not all bad but the mobile version doesn't work as well as it does in the Android version of Firefox Beta.

I have recently noticed when I copied web address which was in Japanese after copying on a note pad or even in the MS outlook email it turned like this %E3%82%B9%E3%. Before it was copied in the same language such as English or Japanese. When I look at the address in the browser it is in Japanese but if I copy and paste it turn in to %E3%82%B9%E3%. What could be the cause? Is it normal. Any guidance/help will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Is there a problem with the forum software? Last answers are mentioned in the bottom line of the questions but they are not displayed and they are not counted in the top line. This is inconsistent information. Example the question "embedded grafics are not displayed" which counts 0 answers in the topline but mentions a last answer 18 minutes ago. But this last answer is not displayed, if one opens the question.

Firefox, latest version, keeps logging me out of sites. I have tried all troubleshooting suggestions offered on the web that I could find, short of starting all over by resetting profile, which I do NOT want to do.

Anyone have any suggestions other than the standard ones about cookies, preference settings having to do with cookies, private browsing, deleting all cookies, deleting cookies files in profile folder, extension issues, etc?

Thank you!

If I upload a file for an email attachment, google drive upload, etc when I first select "browse" for the file it opens File Explorer in the Desktop directory.

How do I change that to default to the directory I always work from, say for example C:\tmp.

I've seen numerous questions about this with answers that it opens the last directory used, which is true if I do it multiple times, but if I close Firefox and restart it, when I select "browse" it again defaults to the Desktop.

I've also seen answers saying it is controlled by the site being uploaded true. Again this is absolutely not true. I do everything from C:\tmp. Downloads, uploads, editing, searching, etc. And every time I upload a file after starting Firefox fresh after a reboot, again, it defaults to the Desktop even though I'm on the same site (gmail) I was when I last uploaded a file.

As far as the answers saying that was the last directory used, that is false. I do not use the desktop for anything. Not storing icons, not downloading files, not uploading files. I have never uploaded a file from Desktop in my life.

So can anyone answer this without saying 'last directory used' or 'controlled by the website'?

Hi all,

When I open a pdf in FF, it does not remember my settings, even though I have set to always open in Adobe Reader. I am running the latest version of FF and Win 10. I have recreated the handler.json file.

Before i never had this problem but heres it is. For a while i had a issue on Firefox not showing thumbnails. I restarted firefox and it fixed it till it updated and the issue reoccurred. I figured out that if i kept webp enabled i can see my thumbnails but now i cant download gifs as gif files but webp files. Webp files dont work for what they are used for. Ive tried shuffling the webp permissions but nothing is working. Is there any way i can have thumbnails show and also not download as webp?

When i open Firefox it shows that I'm logged into my Google account. However, when I click on the gmail icon (which has always worked in the past), I get nothing. I tried going to a separate gmail login in page and it does open a new tab in Firefox but nothing loads.

Hi,

it's the second time that I found a mail from "Firefox <Mozilla@e.mozilla.org>" in my spam folder. Its links seem suspicious to me, beginning with "https://click.e.mozilla.org/" followed by long sequences of digits and letters. The mail's text is identical with parts of the German site "https://www.mozilla.org/de/". Subject line is "Schütze das Web, das du liebst". Maybe it's no spam/phishing, but I want to be shure.

Probably I'm wrong here, but I couldn't find a better place to post this. If so, could anyone tell me the right place to report this?

Thanks a lot! Thomas

Hello, So far this month there have already been 4 Updates to Firefox. The latest one was just yesterday and now today there's another one. I don't mind the occasional update; usually it's about one or two each month. Five is crazy making! What's up with all the updates? Thanks, Andre'a

Hello, This morning when I started Firefox, it uploaded and installed itself to the current level. I run Windows 7. Firefox reopened with the advertisement about Mozilla VPN. IT CLEARLY displayed the OS Software levels it would support for the VPN, including but not limited to Windows/XP , 7, 8, and 10 . When I started the offer purchase it took me to the DOWNLOAD page which offers WINDOWS 10 download ONLY. Will this WINDOWS 10 download work with my Windows 7 ?? Confused here !

Even though I choose the option to reopen firefox and existing tabs when I restart my Macbook Pro, Firefox disappears completely from my computer & I have to use google to find and restart it & then sync to my iphone.

How can I avoid this
