Firefox Community Forum

For the last two days, I have not been able to use Firefox to sign and properly use two key platforms for work: Booking.com and Expedia. Both now demand two-factor/step authentication at sign-up which I can live with BUT every time I click a link once signed in that they deem is sensitive (like looking at the details of a particular reservation or accessing their help messaging tools), I am asked to go through the authentication again. For every task. This means, for example, to change a room for a guest I now need to receive three different SMS codes as the platforms somehow stop recognising that I've already logged in.

I haven't changed any settings on Expedia, Booking.com or Firefox so any ideas on how to solve this please?

Thanks in advance Kevin

Hi there.

I have been a faithful user of the Firefox browser for many years. Sometimes though I come across websites where Firefox doesn't work properly. The current issue is with Microsoft's Office page. www.office.com It is not not the entire website but, that I noticed, certain functions in their page

Who do I contact to report these issues?

I can never sign out of my iphone or import my contacts. You have me down on Three devices Each attributing to iOS,iPhone and Firefox on PC. I recently got rid of my Microsoft account because I thought its outlook was the source of Confusion. If it’s still alive, get rid of it. When I tried to sign in After I bought a. second pc, You totally confused The former owners. account with mine, Leading to her Canceling Firefox because. we shared passwords for Weeks. I don’t know what’s going on, but I wish someone would pick up a phone over there. I was with y’all for 15 years. Look at the past tense. I got to move on.

I was wondering how I could disable these banner notifications whenever a download completes. I've tried setting `browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel` and `browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete` to false, as well as disabling plasma and GNOME. But they still seem to appear

For 2 days now I have a big problem! Firefox froze, and I ended up closing it with the programme manager. When I wanted to reopen I got this: Firefox est déjà en cours d’exécution mais ne répond pas. L’ancien processus Firefox doit être arrêté pour pouvoir ouvrir une nouvelle fenêtre. BUT - it refuses to close when I click on "close" (fermer).

I tried the programme manager - but Firefox isn't shown as being open.

I've made a back up of my profile. I can't delete parent.block ... I'm told "Firefox is running already" and I must close it. Every troubleshooting step comes to the same barrier to completing it! Almost all guide one from an open Firefox page - and I can't open Firefox! I can't "uninstall" for the same reason!

All my passwords are in Firefox - and I can't import them to Chrome without closing Firefox completely! I'm going mad - urgent need to access my passwords!

Many web pages now 'flash' when opened in FF (128.0.3 64bit W10). ALL graphics images turn on then off in synchrony. Text does not seem to be affected. Disabling HW acceleration has no effect.

sample web page: https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/01/eu-ai-act-goes-into-effect-heres-what-it-means-for-us-tech-firms.html This problem does NOT occur using Google Chrome. [One difference noted seems to be the TOP of the web page has an mp4 video advert. It displays in Chrome, but not in ffox]

I haven't loggued in to my matrix account in a long time. I didn't remember which way i used, so i used my email adress, which created a new account. Trying to log out and in again didn't showed me the other options such as login with mozilla (sso), so i deleted that new account (@sebbu2:mozilla.org). Meanwhile, I'm not sure i even am loggued out properly, since i get the same message when i try the original account (@sebbu:mozilla.org) that used mozilla sso.

Ever since the last update, I can't even use the home button anymore, as every time I click on it which I set as google's main search page, all it does is keep refreshing the current page I'm on, instead of redirecting to the page set on the home button, I have to rapidly click the home button around 30 times before it actually shows the google search page. I have tried everything short of completely reformatting the PC re-installing windows, and re-installing Firefox, I have even used Revouninstaller to completely remove Firefox and all files associated with it, and re-installed a clean version from the Mozilla site, dragged the home button to the tool bar, set the home button to google.com, and also set the opening page to google, then closed Firefox, waited around 30s, then started it up again, which did load up google's home page, then I went to youtube, played around there for a little while, then I clicked the home button, and yep, just as I suspected, it refresh the youtube page, I clicked it again, and yet again it refreshed the yourtube page, so I rapidly kept clicking the home button, until eventually the google home page appeared.

I was wonder when the next browser update may be come as I would like to watch YouTube on Firefox again. As it has been over a month since the last update that made it so YouTube doesn't load the video anymore. (I have tried every suggestion online to correct this and nothing)

Since the latest Firefox update, a little notification icon about autofill addresses has appeared to the left of the web address line. It keeps asking if I want to save an address that I entered in someone's contact, so no I never want to save that in my autofill, but it doesn't give me that option. Has this happened to anyone else?

Firefox keeps asking me if I want to save an address that I entered in a contact and I can't get it to stop. It doesn't have NEVER as a choice. I tried saving it and it went in my autofill, but I don't want it there. I deleted it and then it started asking me if I want to save it again. HELP!

Let’s say I use Manage Bookmarks to rearrange my bookmarks into different folders & also delete a lot of old bookmarks on my desktop computer. Are all the changes I just made immediately reflected in my Mozilla account if Sync is on? My (vague) understanding is that the Sync configuration in my Mozilla account acts as a master configuration; does that mean the Mozilla account configuration will overwrite the configuration on my laptop when it Syncs? Or will the laptop’s configuration instead be combined with the desktop’s configuration in the Mozilla account, thereby creating duplicate bookmarks in different folders & recreating all the old bookmarks I so painstakingly removed?

Having an issue where Youtube live streams works for around 30 seconds and then "Something went wrong" error happens and the stream stops. I've tried Troubleshooting Mode and it continues to happen.

Oddly, using a private browsing window fixes it. I figured that may mean that I should clear my cache/cookies but that didn't fix it for normal browsing. From my testing it doesn't appear to be extension related because I've tried a private browsing session with all of my extensions allowed in private and the stream was steady.

Disabling Hardware Acceleration didn't do it either.

I'm on Windows 10. Firefox Version - 128.0.3 Build ID - 20240725162350

If there are any other steps I can take to troubleshoot, please let me know.
