I have had it up to here with Firefox. I am madder than a hornet. Currently, I am unable to access my Outlook email and DirecTV in my Firefox browser, though I can in other browsers I have. Sometimes, I can't even sign into Ebay.
The DirecTV problem goes back at least 4 years to a different PC, so I have had this same problem on two PCs, therefore it can't be my PC. Besides, why can I access DirecTV on my Norton private browser and not on Firefox? I get the following error window:
An error occurred while processing your request.
Reference #219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807
https://errors.edgesuite.net/219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807
The differing Outlook problem has popped intermittently over the past few months, but has happened more often lately. In that problem, the sign-on button is not activated.
Similar with the Ebay sign-on problem, except Ebay thinks I'm a bot and won't let me go any further than that perplexing error message.
I'm in the process of gravitating to the Norton private browser. I've already got all my bookmarks moved to that browser. At least Norton works for these three websites.
To put it bluntly, I think Firefox is a big stinking pile of horse manure. Firefox makes it EXTREMELY difficult to find out solutions. I believe Firefox actually WANTS it to be difficult to use. Why else would it be so hard to find out things? For example, instructions tell me to do something in some menu or click on some button, but the menu selections or buttons usually aren't there. I go round and round through the same blankety-blank webpages. I feel like a June bug constantly circling round a light. Even wanting to simply restore Firefox to original settings requires pulling eye teeth.
It took me over an hour to finally restore Firefox settings yesterday, which fixed things for THAT DAY ONLY. Today, the same problems cropped back up again.
I've had it. Unless I'm given some solution THAT ACTUALLY CONTINUES TO WORK, I am quitting Firefox.
Have a good day. I sure as hell haven't.

I am using Firefox 129.0.1 on a Windows 11 laptop and the three dots do not appear on the shortcut tiles when I hover over any of them. I have checked online documentation and it still describes using the three dots to add, edit or remove a tile. Am I missing something? Help would be most appreciated.
Thank You...Mike Dilio

I've added https://x.com as an exception site but it is still blocked.
https://x.com/mozilla doesn't work either
Error message on the page:
"Something went wrong, but don’t fret — let’s give it another shot.
⚠️ Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com"
After 2 days it used to finally load without my doing anything, but not now. I never loads using Firefox.
https://x.com is added as an exception, but obviously ignored.
Tried You can reload webpage(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
NOPE
Tried: Clear the Cache and remove the Cookies for websites that cause problems via the "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Settings), click the padlock icon (Clear cookies and site data) for the domain in the selected tab.
"Remove the Cookies" for websites that cause problems:
Settings -> Privacy & Security Cookies and Site Data: "Manage Data"

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.
switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window

NOPE - lost all my bookmarks, extensions, settings - not going there again thank you
as for:
You can check for issues with Enhanced Tracking Protection. Firefox shows a purple shield instead of a gray shield at the left end of the location/address bar in case Enhanced Tracking Protection is blocking content.
click the shield icon for more detail and possibly disable the protection
the sheild has a slash thru it saying "enhanced tracking is off for this site" when i put my mouse over it.

Hello, I use Ufile for my taxes. They weren't bad a few years back. For the past 3-4 years they have been a problem with their website not loading properly. They want you to use Chrome (as do more then a few websites). I don't like Chrome for privacy reasons. What do you suggest I do? Load Chrome for Ufile and then delete it. Can you suggest a tax website that works better with Fire Fox? Open to suggestions. Thanks in advance. Bob

I hope this message finds you well! I use two versions of Firefox: the stable one and the developer one.
The developer version is set to start with the Windows start and is set to be minimized on the Windows try but since some years Firefox, as other browser do, never load the page or the tab content if the tab or the window is not active, been seen by the user.
I'm asking if there is some hidden settings in the about:config that allow me to disable this and let Firefox load tabs or page always, not only when the tab or windows is seen by me.
Thank you.

I am trying to manage Firefox for company devices via Intune and would like to know if there is a way to uninstall all extensions/add-ons besides one or two approved ones.
I have been able to import the Firefox AMDX into Intune and have made a policy to install uBlock (which works without issue) and I can uninstall specific extensions/add-ins via their Extension ID (also without issue), however I can't see a way to uninstall all extensions. If I try and put a wildcard in the Extension ID field, nothing is affected.
We have a large number of devices with their own user-installed extensions so auditing this and then updating a policy manually with specific extension IDs may be quite painful.

I used to be able to press Enter in the empty Firefox search bar to bring up the (DuckDuckGo) search page and enter my search from there. Don't ask me why I like doing that, but now after the latest Firefox update, 128.0, on my MacBook Air I can't do that anymore. I have to type in the search bar to bring up the search page.
I know it's a small thing but I wonder if it can be put back to the way it used to be.

I upgraded my version of Firefox from an ESR version to v129.0.1 on Debian 12. Drag and drop of files from the desktop or the file manager (PCManFM-Qt) into the browser stopped working. It is still working properly in Chrome.
This occurs with several web apps but, as an example, it occurs when trying to drag a jpeg into Roundcube Webmail while composing a message.
No browser console errors are genrated when trying to do this. It occurs in Troubleshooting (safe) mode as well. In apps that pop-up a "Drag files here" target, that target still appears but dropping the file on it does nothing.

There are 32 shortcuts on my home screen - 4 rows of 8 each. However, I accidentally "dismissed" one shortcut - now there are 31 total. I cannot figure out how to restore a shortcut. Is the solution in about:config (browser.newtabpage.pinned)?

Hello! After installing update 129.0.1, in the profile folder, along the path: AppData/roaming/mozilla/firefox/profiles, a folder "extensions store menus" appeared, it contains the file data.life.bin, which changes its modification date as if it was synchronized when the browser closes. I would like to know if anyone else has this folder and file? . I checked the file for viruses, it is clean. Thanks in advance for your answers).

Hello friends,
As the title of the subject entails, I am trying to disable Firefox's new translation tool, becasue I'm using a 3rd party extension.
I tried to follow the solution on the following support thread ( [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1434741#question-reply] ), but it didn't work for me, and I'm still seeing the new translate button.
Is there another way to fix this?
I'm using Firefox 129.0.1 (64bit) for MacOS.

I am developing a django website.
The login on the default admin page is not working when I am testing locally on my mobile. I assume it is because the connection is http (and not https) in order to protect the users (which is a good thing).
I assumed this is the problem, because on chrome, I got also blocked, but I got this hint.
Therefore following 2 stories:
If my assumptions are wrong (but the server did not receive any call), do you know, how I can visualize the network calls on android?

After updating the Mozilla browser, two sites related to watching TV movies stopped opening - Apple TV and Canal +. The Apple TV site does not respond at all, Canal + shows an error. Clearing cookies doesn't help. Another browser, Chrome, opens pages normally.

Any suggestions?
