Forum zgromaźeństwa Firefox

My nice big Search bar just below your logo is useless? When I highlight it, the curser blinks inside it, but when I start typing my search info it automatically types it into the small address bar on top?? I much rather use the SEARCH BAR!!!! I was able to before. Whqat's goingon??

I’m encountering a persistent issue while browsing certain websites in Firefox where I consistently receive a 'Secure Connection Failed' error message. This issue disrupts my browsing experience and I’m keen to understand how I can troubleshoot and resolve this error effectively.

I’ve already checked my internet connection and confirmed that other browsers do not encounter the same issue. Additionally, I’ve ensured that my system’s date and time settings are accurate. Despite these steps, the problem persists specifically within Firefox.

Could someone please provide detailed steps or insights on how to diagnose and fix the 'Secure Connection Failed' error? I’m particularly interested in understanding how Firefox handles SSL/TLS connections and any specific settings or configurations within Firefox that could affect this error.

Your assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

After several years doing online business with my local bank, I just started getting this message whenever I tried to log into my account at the bank with Firefox 129.0.2 in Windows 11 on this HP ENVY Laptop 17:

“Access Denied You are unauthorized to access this resource. Reference ID is: f0575ab8a6. Troubleshooting Steps. 1. Reload the home page and try again. 2. Clear your browser cache and try again. 3. Try logging in with a different browser. 4. Try logging in with a different device.”

My initial questions to a customer service rep at the bank were not fruitful. Following their advise, I tried reloading the bank’s login site. Still denied. I cleared the Firefox cache. No good. I was able to login successfully with another Windows computer, a desktop running Win 10, also using Firefox 129.0.2. I can also log into the bank on this laptop using both Google Chrome and MS Edge browsers. A strange wrinkle: I can log into my account with this Firefox-Computer if I use a Private Browsing Tab.

Please help me fix whatever I must have done so I can continue to use Firefox here.

I am having trouble pinning any Extensions to my toolbar. When i click on the Extensions icon (puzzle piece), the Extensions menu immediately pops up. My extension (Bitwarden) is set to "Enabled". When I click on the three horizontal dots, however, the only options are 1) Remove, 2) Report, or 3) Manage. There's no option given to pin the extension.

Because of that, the extension basically never opens, and I am unable to use it. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance.

I am running Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit) in Windows 11 on a Surface tablet. FWIW, the extension is running fine in Chrome.

Tell me what I have to do to gain access. I have gained access to my SS account in the past. So I was puzzled by this "Bad Request" response from Firefox. - Norman Griffiths 8/22/2024

Hi there,

I'm new here so please bear with me if I've posted in the wrong place or have missed something obvious.

I running Windows 10, fully updated, on a laptop. I have been using Firefox browser now for many years, suits my needs and avoid's using Goolges Chrome. My Firefox was updated a in the last few days and it shows as up to date on Version 129.0.1 64bit.

I noticed late last night that when opening a fresh window and enter a search term in either the address bar or the Google search bar, my usual choice of search engine, I hit return and nothing happens. Any text I've input disappears totally. Not at all sure what's going on but have found that if I open a new private window Firefow will act as I'd expect without any issues.

I have two other browsers on my laptop, Edge and also Avast's own offering which both work as expected when I enter a search term. Have never experienced this before with the exception of years ago when malware protection wasn't great. It almost seems as though something is just stopping Firefox from searching anything I enter. I can use the bookmarks just fine and then everything works as usual.

Yesterday I thought that maybe following the new windows culmulative updates I was offered and apparently installed just fine, that I needed to restart which a tried and I thought it had cured the issue. Seems that it hasn't and still having the same issue.

Any idea's or thought's on what the cause of this is?

Google search has stopped working intermittently for about a month now (August 2024) in Firefox. I haven't seen a real useful fix or explanation of what's going on from Mozilla. Please fix this. It wasn't an issue before.

Hi there, I'll have several tabs open and when opening a new tab/window, suddenly nothing happens when I type something. It's not specific pages, it's anything. I found somewhere that I could Clear my latest History, which helped momentarily, but the problem came back. Why is this?

Hello. The latest update of FireFox 129.0.2 still has intermittent crashes. Sometimes I can't access my Google searches or links in emails don't work, then it works, then it starts to malfunction again. I have to restart my PC. Could you release a patch that works as well as before FireFox 129.0? On the other hand, Canal+ works perfectly Thanks. Kind regards.

Hello, When I tried to use ChatGPT on Firefox, It showed only white blank page. I can't type or do anything to ChatGPT. But in Chrome it works fine. I tried to reset Firefox but still be the same. Does anyone know how to fix this? It happened yesterday.

Hi,

This a a problem with the interface of a website, its missing a lot of the sections of text and stuff. The first attachment is what it looks like on firefox, and the following one is on safari. I've tried disabling the security limitations on the site to no avail. I'm on Mac.

Best, Jonathan

I just started getting this error:

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to www.newsmax.com.

I cannot find how to make this stop. I will get emails from Newsmax about articles and if there is something I want to read I click on the link in the email. I never had a problem with Firefox not opening the link. This just started and I can not get the link to open. I have Newsmax set up as a home setting. However, after I got the Secure Connection Failed error, I could not open the Newsmax web page even if I typed in www.newsmax.com. I am about to uninstall Firefox and use another browser. Can you please tell me how to fix this?

pCloud PDF links do not open in Firefox for Linux.

When I share a pCloud PDF link to social media groups, the link doesn't work. I know that the link will open in other browsers.

I've got a question/suggestion about Picture in Picture feature. Why "Close" button works the same as "Back to Tab"?

Scenario: Close the Picture in Picture video by clicking on the [X] button or Cmd+W shortcut.

Actual result: Picture in Picture closes and Firefox window opens, on the tab containing the video. This is very strange behaviour. If I close the video, I don't want to watch it now. Essentially "Close" button works exactly like "Back to Tab" button - so what's the point? If I wanted to switch to the tab - I would click on "Back to tab".

Expected result: I expect Picture in Picture video to close and nothing else to happen. Don't open the window/tab containing the video.

Thanks

I was using Firefox and had just checked my bank account when the error message above appeared. I have tried updating Firefox via Norton but all attempts at updating fail.

I have had to download Chrome as a standby but would prefer to go back to Firefox

Any help gratefully received
