after creating a new profile, and copying everything in the root directory to the new profile, including search.json.mozlz4, the default search engine setting does not get transferred over and is still set to google

Hi all, I'm running Gentoo linux on Apple M1 arm64 when after one random reboot firefox started segfaulting. Currently I've updated my system to be on the latest testing versions of packages and it's giving me the following backtrace:

Here is the Gentoo Forums post: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1170250.html Keep note of my last comment there where I realized that I installed firefoxpwa that day and it was working until I reboot in the evening having completely forgotten about firefoxpwa.

I am reporting this to you for investigation. In a routine scan, WebRoot reported that your Firefox had a memory leek. You might take it up with WebRoot. I really can’t help any further.

My Environment: Host Machine - Intel Core i7-4771 @3.50GHz, 16GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce 210 Display Adapter, Intel Gigabit Network Connection (ISP connection is around 700MBps).

OS - Windows 7 Pro V.22H2 Browser = Firefox ver.128.0.3 64bit.

Virtual Machine (VM) - Oracle Virtual Box Ver. 7.0.20 r163906, RAM = 4GB, Network = Bridged Adapter.

OS = Windows 7 Pro V. 22H2 Browser = Firefox ver. 128.0.3 64bit.

The Problem (In my VM only because I never browse sites on my Host PC): Toronto Sun website "Sign In" Screen never loads. A quarter circle just goes round and round. The website in question is - https://torontosun.com/sign-in/ The website itself does load fine and I can browse the site and all articles. But I cannot log into the site because the "Sign in" screen never loads. Also, Firefox tabs crash very frequently on this whole website.

Firefox is the only browser that I have on both my Host and VM (I have deleted MS Edge since it cannot be uninstalled).

On my VM, I tried installing Google Chrome and it works fine. The Toronto Sun Sign In page loads fine and I can log in.

On my Host PC, Firefox actually works. I tried it to see if the "Sign In" screen appears and it does and I can log in. It is only on my VM that it does not load.

What has Changed:

The Oracle Virtual Box software was just updated from ver. VirtualBox-7.0.18-162988-Win to ver. VirtualBox-7.0.20-163906-Win.

What I have tried: I have already done the following: Cleared - "Everything" including History, cookies, Temporary Cached files and pages and Site Settings.

I do not have any add-ons or themes installed.

I have cleared all Windows and User Temp Folders and files. I have rebooted several times in the past couple of days.

I tried increasing the VM RAM from 4GB to 6GB - did not help.

I would appreciate a solution.

Thanks very much. Kenneth

Hello.

Ihad been using whatsapp when in FireFox for yest. However, in the last two weeks this applications has get stucked, The mensajes can't be sent just a circle spining. Even restarting my computer and firefox the problem solve.

I try whatsapp web on another browser and it works ok.

Best regards.

With Firefox 129.0 for Windows (64-bit), I am unable to log into one of my banking sites. It always says invalid username/password. It works fine with Microsoft Edge, and another computer still on 128.0.3, and their phone app.

I have tried the normal stuff of clearing cookies and cache, safe mode, etc... No change.

Unless someone has a similar card that uses a similar login, may be hard to test, but this is the login link: https://auth.securebanklogin.com/?brand=card

Mozilla tab keeps crashing (especially at YouTube) I was wondering if someone can help me find out why!

like tell me how to show the log or something to identify what is doing the crash.

Thank you in advance!

sorry for my bad english. in german I always get in a circle an come never to this page to put in a question. I use version 127.0 and look for in the option to change save file behavior. I already asked google and the comments are from 2022. I like to activate a third button in the save file message box. Currently there are 2 buttons and I want to activate the 3. butten named "save a copy" or like this. I want to choose the directory always self and when I like I want to decide to save a copy with this button and firefox add a copy number automaticaly. I know from google if I do not use the option "always ask where to save file" firefox do so. As background I need this when I use a auto clicker to use a button on a page to download smartmeter data files. Unfortunatly the file have always the same name and not include the date and time. Unfortunatly I am not able to configure firefox automaticaly with the auto clicker or in the crone job file.

Hello,

please i have a problem with google sites (Google/Youtube/Gmail)

The problem is when i want to open these sites, the sites are loading for about 20seconds and nothing happens after multiple tries (or when the time passes by) the sites function normally, but this problem occurs every few minutes and it's nerve wracking...

I had this exact problem on my former PC and now it's occuring on my new PC so it has to be something wrong with Mozilla

please help me because i don't want to switch to another web browser after using Mozilla for many years

Thanks

After Firefox updated my browser version to 129.0, my username and password no longer work on my credit card website. I contacted tech support at the credit card banking site through a live phone call. I told them about the upgrade and also that I can use firefox on my iphone to login successfully. I don't know what version is currently on my iphone but it does work there. This problem is specifically on my Macmini . I also can login using same password and username on the Mac through Safari. Their tech support said the problem is with that version (129.0) Firefox web browser. What say You? Thanks.

When I drag and drop text from a .txt file into Firefox, the text goes to Firefox correctly, but then deletes whatever was highlighted from the .txt file. Is this a setting I have to change or is there no way to fix this?

Hello,

I'd like to create a Firefox add-on that communicates with another process on the local computer. I've found the documentation about the WebExtension API and have already created a few add-ons, also for Thunderbird. But I couldn't find information about the IPC mechanisms in the documentation or the rest of the web.

How does it work, where is it explained?

I can handle sockets and named pipes (Windows) on the desktop development side, just need the browser side.
