Hi Guys, I'm having trouble logging into Firefox on any of my devices even though i can pass all the password & security steps. When logged in, it asks me if want to connect any other devices then immediately logs me out.

On my main laptop i have all my bookmarks & passwords working but am not logged in, but i want to replicate this on another laptop.

Any ideas?

Will enabling these settings tend to contribute to exacerbating the problems?

I keep getting: Save Login for http://blabla.xyz?!!

if i say 'never' it just keeps asking.

now your saying. aah. thats cause it cannot differentiate a ipv4 and a hostname.


The gethostbyname() function returns a structure of type hostent for the given host name. Here name is either a hostname or an IPv4 address

i wonder then what this browser does. not remembering by name. here thus the word never is better replaced by -> ask me again next time.

Disabling GPU process fixes stuttering on external display on dual-GPU Optimus laptop

My configuration is the following: Windows 11, internal display connected to iGPU and external UHD display to nvidia-HDMI port, multiple firefox windows are opened (1 one the internal screen, 2 on the external).

Then in Windows->Settings->GPU I can select firefox to run on either iGPU (powersaving) or on Nvidia GPU (max perf), the problem is the following: Whenever I set firefox running on iGPU, there would be a massive stuttering/framedrop on an external display (connected to NVIDIA), while a perfectly smooth browsing on internal display, and vice versa.

My first attempt was to disable webrenderer compositor or switching it to a software rendering, which fixes the heavy stuttering, but the scrolling becomes overall less fluid/responsive.

However, setting "layers.gpu-process.enabled" to "false" seemingly solves this problem completely. Now I have a perfectly smooth scrolling on both displays, regardless of which GPU is used in Windows->Settings->GPU (nvidia's is arguably a little but more responsive).

Hope this helps someone, or maybe dev team could look deeper into this.

Thank you for the great browser!

I don't even move my mouse or do anything, and video is pausing randomly without any of my input. It doesn't have any frequency, it just happens. You can see it on video below. I watched nearly 5 minutes of a random video, and it paused 4 times without any reason. As you can see, everything I do is just moving my mouse a little and that's it. No more input from me. The video does it by itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf0IVpXfAdA&ab_channel=Kami In the video, it freezed at: 1:45, 2:45, 4:02, 5:10

I needed to add another user to our windows 10 computer. The user has their own windows login. They have their own Mozilla user account, but somehow are getting all bookmarks, etc from my account. I really need them to not be able to do that. I have searched the info here and haven't had any luck following the suggestions.

In the meantime, the other user is using MS edge, which makes me uncomfortable

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Configuration details are below. The Firefox desktop for Windows address bar does not function [it was fine previously]. If search keys or an internet address are entered into it, carriage return results in no action. The address bar is fully functional in Troubleshooting Mode. Shortcuts on the New Tab page or the desktop DO function.

about:config>keyw>keyword.enabled DOES have a value of TRUE

I've no idea how to resolve this. Solution[s] welcome and appreciated.

Because Microsoft's timeserver remains shit as ever (which is why if I install Windows I tend to sync up with nist.gov instead of windows.com, but this time I forgot to do so), the time/date stamp didn't match up and Firefox absolutely refused to sync.

HOWEVER.... the only reason I found this out is because I checked about:sync-log and am able to correctly read those logs and the implication therein. Which, honestly, shouldn't be needed.

When I realized this I synced up with nist.gov, which solved the sync issue, but if you don't know about the state of the Windows time server and how drastically synced up in regarding the time you need to be for the Firefox sync to work, you're pretty much screwed.

Which is why I'd like to suggest a warning in regards to this, if the system notes a 'time de-sync' and tells you why syncing doesn't work. You shouldn't need (by the average citizen's standard) need intermediate or better computer knowledge skills to realize why the syncing doesn't work.
