Firefox Community Forum

Hello, Today I tried to upload some images to a seller on eBay, and consistently got the popup pictured below. I've never seen, heard of or had this issue before and searching for it comes up with nothing useful.

Any ideas? Using Firefox 115.13.0esr (64-bit)

Thanks

I saw a similar question, but it had been archived, and my question (above) got no results, so am hoping someone here can help me with an answer as to how to fix this issue.

I have a pinned tab (from Distill Monitoring addon) that always has to be pinned. And thats ok. But the problem is that every few minutes, new duplicate pinned tabs emerge so that around 5 or 8 of them emerge. I only want one pinned tab open, not several duplicate pinned tabs. How do I fix this with CSS or other means?

I'm using openSUSE Tumbleweed and KDE Plasma. Ever since I updated to Plasma 6.1, Firefox crashes constantly when using Wayland. I'm not having this problem if I'm using X11. Crash reports are sent after every crash so I'm sure someone can reference these. When starting Firefox from a console, I got this message after a crash: "[GFX1-]: Wayland protocol error: wp_linux_drm_syncobj_surface_v1#67: error 5: explicit sync is used, but no release point is set"

Will this get fixed with the next Firefox update? Currently using 127.0.

For about the past week I've been having trouble with Gmail and Google Search in my Firefox browser. Typically, I open a Firefox window with multiple tabs and leave the window open all day. I always have Gmail and Google Calendar open in tabs. What happens is that the Gmail tab will at some point give me a message that it cannot connect and has timed out and is trying to reload, but it never reloads, it just stalls. Then I try to open a Google search bookmark to search and the tab remains blank. This happens multiple times throughout the day. Meanwhile I can open Gmail or any Google page in Chrome, which I don't like using.

Sometimes I can close out the Gmail tab that won't load and try to open Gmail in a new tab, but that stalls out too. The only way I can open Gmail again is to close out the Firefox window completely and then relaunch it, then it can open Gmail or Google... until it breaks again.

This never used to happen. I'm using the latest versions of Windows 10 and Firefox on my desktop PC. Nothing else has changed.

Please help me fix this, it's very annoying.

Hello. Recently I've noticed video quality has been reduced on amazon prime video. I get a message saying my hardware doesn't meet HDCP requirements.

I've already tried playing the same video on edge, and the quality selector was fine there, full HD video.

Thank you in advance

I can't get firefox to play amazon music web page or netflix because it claims to be installing an app which it never completes. I've tried to purge cache for the site in question, to no avail. What is the solution?

Here's what happened: I had installed Firefox on a different computer using my current profile backup copy/pasted, into

C:\Users\Al\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\s99pq6qr.default

& it worked ok .... but when I signed out & back in days later & launched Firefox on the new computer...

The problem is that it had 2 profiles on the new computer...mine & a generic one ..& that generic one became the starting or DEFAULT profile... obviously without all my data....so I backed out & later deleted that one generic profile so mine would be the only DEFAULT profile used. 

But from then on trying to use my profile on the new computer copy/pasted from my main laptop that I’ve had FF on for10 years...failed .....as it kept using the generic one...& all attempts at fixes to get only my backup profile used didn’t work...so.... & had to do a complete uninstall of Firefox using REVO..as it finds all folders & files hidden around places....but ....after REVO uninstall I found more folders &files of Mozilla & Firefox all around in my C drive...SO..after eliminating everything I could & starting over ...by downloading a new Firefox browser application on the new computer ...but before running the set up files... Now... I want to reinstall Firefox on this different computer ....& make sure that only my backup profile is used!

I was going to try Backup assistant.... But HOW DO I LOCATE & USE/RUN Backup assistant?

When I read this:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/switching-devices

These are the steps you need to follow:

Click the menu PhotonMenuButton button in the top right corner of the screen.
Click Help.
Click Switching to a new device.

BUT...I DON’T WANT TO “Switch to a new device.” I WANT TO KEEP IT AS IT IS ON MY CURRENT DEVICE ....AND...WHILE ADDING IT TO MY NEW COMPUTER TOO (I might be confused at the term 'switch')

Then I thought of using Sync When I read this about Connect additional devices to Sync: To connect another desktop computer or profile, just sign in and let Sync do the rest. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-sync-my-computer How do I know if I already had set up Sync on my computer? how to access it

I’m sorry.. but just overwhelmed/confused with too many help articles here...

& on the internet....

Thanks for any help & suggestions!

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.

Unable contact seller on Ebay, error "Firefox Can’t Open This Page To protect your security, www.google.com will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window."

Added ebay.com to exclusion list for security in Firefox. I am not able to ope this link in a new tab. Appears to be a bug.

I already occasionally run into sites that don't behave well with Firefox, forcing me to use another browser in some cases.

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

I have Yahoo.com as my email provider (Firefox is my internet provider). When I get emails I don't want, I move them to the Junk Email option BUT, it only deletes that specific email and does NOT keep it from being sent again (and they ARE, repeatedly). I contacted Yahoo and and all they do is send me to a website that will answer the question but sign me up for a monthly $46 to $55 fee. Any way known that I can solve my problem?

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.
