Firefox Community Forum

I received a notice when trying to download : We can't connect to server at downloadzip.wolfgangsvault.com . It was suggested that I check that Firefox has permission to access the web ( I might be connected but behind a firewall). Please help . Thanks!

I am trying to use the Bing homepage for their daily images. When I open Fire Fox, the Bing homepage comes up but has a news popup along the bottom of the screen. I have unchecked the option for the "news and interests" from the 3 bar menu on the upper right and it goes away. But, when I open Firefox again, the news popup comes back up. Anyone have any idea how to fix this? This did not used to happen before I had to reinstall Firefox due to problems I was having. Thanks for any help.

I realize Facebook doesn't have a spell check feature,but is there a way my browser, Firefox, which I already have spell check enabled can somehow spell check Facebook when I chat? Can someone help? Thank you.

I get the error message The outgoing mail server (SMTP) smtp.myserver.com does not seem to support encrypted passwords. If you have just set up the account, try changing the 'Authentication method' in 'Account settings | Outgoing mail server (SMTP)' to 'Normal password'.

I have several accounts, all have the setting 'normal password'. The solution is installed on several mobile devices. Via mobile phone (Iphone) my outbox works perfectly. I get the error message on my tablet and PC. I have not changed any settings or anything else. What would be the solution?

Can we set it as a new tab option instead of manually clicking the button?

Currently, there's no way to achieve this with an extension thanks to malware risks preventing any add-ons from targeting the local URL (i.e. 'about::___') as a new tab.

Introducing this page as a new tab option has the potential to significantly enhance the Firefox ecosystem. It will make the transition from phone to desktop seamless, greatly improving multi-devices experiences.

How to save all browsing history. I seem to have lost all past history and now, only the session history is kept until log off? I do not know when my history was deleted it was a few days back but how do I customize my settings to save my history?Thanks for reading

This may be more of a Firefox sync problem, I'm not sure, but either way it is irritating. Every time I open Firefox it has me signed out of all my google accounts no matter how many times I select stay signed in or keep me signed in. I don't have the setting for deleting cookies on and I don't believe anything on my computer is clearing cookies without me knowing, and I personally do not clear cookies often if ever. If anybody knows what could be causing this any advice/help would be extremely useful and greatly appreciated, thank you.

When I input my backup code, mozilla shows the error "There was a problem confirming your backup authentication code". I tried inputting just one of the codes and all the codes. I'm not sure what to do.

As the subject says, when i middle mouse click on a link to open it in a new tab in a folder on the bookmark bar, the folder closes, which is annoyign when i want to opne multiple pages. How do i prevent this folder closing?

Also the "When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately" check mark doesnt seem to work when it comes to the adresse bar. Firefox will switch to any page i middle mouse click in my bookmark bar with this setting UNCHECKED. I fixed this wrong behavior by setting this option "browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground" to TRUE in the "about:config" settings page.

I also want to add that this problem is recent. I've been using firefox for a few years and only since one of the recent updates (dont know which one) has this problem occured. I assume it's a bug since such inconsistent "setting options to actual ui behavior" is laughable.

Hi. I'm an admin using web based school class scheduling software. I have to go into student and instructor records frequently where their personal info is displayed in the form of filled in fields on a web page. Every time I exit a student/instructor contact page, firefox asks me if I want to save their addresses. Obviously I don't want to do this with other peoples info, but I'd still like to autofill addresses for my own private browsing. Is there a way I can exclude only the class scheduling website from address autofill/autosave without shutting the function off entirely for all my other browsing? Thanks .

Hello,

I keep trying to use my plug in USB security key on bofa.com (for my Bank of America account log in MFA), but it keeps asking for a challenge phrase. I don't have any idea what this is. Can you help?

The request that pops up says:

'Making Sure It's You'

Please sign into "bankofamerica.com".

This request comes from the app "firefox.exe" by Mozilla Corporation.

Then has a blank line to enter 'Challenge Phrase'

• • I have no idea what this is. I do not recall setting up a "Challenge Phrase" on Windows or Firefox browser. Can you help me with this PLEASE?! I don't know what else to do!

I have tried several times to remove the security completely and re-add to the bofa.com website, I have tried to reset the security key itself back to factory.

When I'm looking at a webpage, if there is a lot of dark pixels, the menu dims to a dull gray, and if it's mostly white it brightens to white.

This is EXTREMELY DISTRACTING and I want to turn it off. But I can't find a setting to disable this useless and annoying "feature".

How do I turn this off? Seems to be a new addition.

Is there anyway to configure network.http.rcwn.enabled to false via the policy located in the ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\distribution'' folder?
