Firefox Support Forum

After the last few updates on Firefox, I can no longer access meetup.com. When trying to access that site, I get a "Bad Request" message. As a side note, I have no trouble accessing that site if I use my Safari browser.

Also note that the OS that was "guessed" (10.15) was incorrect--it is MAC OS 13.2.1

In the past the caret in text entry fields used to blink/pulsate/flash forever in both Firefox and Thunderbird. (Text entry boxes, such as the browser URL-bar, the e-mail To/Subject/Content textboxes, online forms, etc.). Now in the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox 110.0.1 and Thunderbird 102.8.0 the caret stops blinking after just a few seconds. This is very confusing and frustrating for my grandmother and she already called me several times because Firefox and Thunderbird 'stopped working'. I explained to her that this is a new feature but she does not understand and keeps forgetting it after a few days. She is used to the cared blinking continuously, it has been blinking for the past decades whenever she wanted to type something in the computer and it only stopped blinking when the computer program froze or crashed.

I am sure that my grandma is not the only person having issues with the caret not flashing, I for one also would like to have a caret that blinks forever, so when I look away from the screen and look back I do not have to search the text to find where I left my caret.

Please make it so that the default caret appearance and behavior is the same as in all other programs (i.e. blinking forever), as it used to be in the past, just like what everyone is used to. I argue that the majority of users is used to and also expects a blinking caret when they are writing an e-mail or search online and you are confusing a whole lot of people with this minor change, people who do not know how to report bugs or seek help themselves. It's a sign of poor user-friendliness if grandmas need to call their grandchildren or children for help just to write e-mails which they used to be able to do on their own for many years in the past.

I hereby suggest adding an accessibility option for people who wish to disable the blinking cursor and to change the default behavior back to 'caret flashing forever'.

I have set a master password for firefox Logins and Passwords. When I try to look at Passwords sometimes the login screen pops up to allow me to enter the Master Password. Other times I get the screen (see attached photo) that has a login button. When I click the button the screen flashes but does not pop up a password window. If I close all tabs and other windows of firefox browser then start only one firefox browser window it will ask for the master password. That fixes it temporarily but I have to close many tabs and several firefox windows.

Please help me understand why there is a feature to have cookies be made exceptions from deletion and then when someone elects to delete all data, cookies, and browsing data on exit....the EXCEPTION list of cookies also gets deleted.

today and everything has changed. My bookmarks are gone, or at least I cannot find them and I cant find anything in my Word account. This is very troubling. Solution please. Were changes made in the last 48 hours?

I've been using Firefox for many years. I Like it. I have used the History and History's Search function quite a few times. I normally always had Firefox find an update but ask me to install. I did those. I now have v110.0.1 installed. I did that last week after I stupidly screwed something up to do with permissions on folders. Everything seems okay now, all are fixed (all my other programs work fine now) except that in Firefox History (Ctrl+Shift+H) I can only ever see "Today" under the "History" category. I can browse, bookmark, etc. just fine. I suppose there is some setting somewhere that I've messed up but I cannot find it. Can you help me such that it shows "Last x Days", months older, etc. ? BTW I also tried mozillaistoryview.exe and it also only shows "today". Nothing in my system has changed for about a week but I browse every day. Thanks.

BTW I'm on Win10_Pro/64 whichever build/update is current.

This feature was great when it was first implemented but it seems to be increasingly unusable. It flatly refuses to generate passwords on many sites seemingly because there is a flag set in the textbox's code disabling auto-complete. It won't allow you to customize the types of passwords that are generated e.g. length, complexity, excluded characters, etc. This wouldn't be such an issue if there was a way to manually generate a password but there seems to be no tool for this anywhere in the settings and no plans to add this feature. I wouldn't be so frustrated if I didn't actually like and actually use the password manager but I do. I rely upon it almost daily and it is extremely disheartening to see it repeatedly confounded by poor design and implementation.

I don't know what to do. I'm not a developer... but WHAT IS WITH THIS? • I've already checked and unchecked "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above." • Quit and restarted • happening on multiple sites • Safe mode doesn't help • gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled is true • Website appearance is automatic • Firefox is up to date • macOS 13.2.1 Ventura • No extra extensions or plug-ins • Enhanced tracking protection off didn't help.

Can someone help me please without me having to be a programmer?

For some reason my computer restart by itself. I lost all the windows and tabs opened. I tried to restore the session but your system told me there was an error. I clicked on menu and history but I can't get to restore the session. Please help !

Firefox has been randomly crashing for me for months now, which minimizes everything I had up, usually at a bad time. Firefox doesn't even have to be running for it to crash and interrupt what I'm doing.

I'm using Windows 10 and Firefox 110.0. I've refreshed, uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared cookies, cleared cache, used safe mode in Firefox; scanned for viruses; and tried other things the last two days to solve my problem without any success. The problem is recent! All of a sudden I have a couple websites which won't load properly but work correctly in other browsers. Firefox is my favorite browser so I'm hoping to get the problem fixed. Can anyone help me please? I don't know what else to try! Thank you for any help or suggestions. Example: Meijer.com correctly loads the homepage. I use Meijer.com to order groceries. However, when I try to search for a product a blank page is displayed. Please see images.

ADDITIONAL INFO: I have discovered Meijer.com will load correctly if I use 'Private browsing' mode. What would cause it not to load correctly when using the regular Firefox mode?

When I try to access https://www.solidsurface.com/ in firefox I get the following error: Error 405 Not allowed

Not allowed Error 54113

I used to be able to access this site in firefox and can acces it in microsoft edge. Any idea what is going on?

I am a new user to Firefox (started in Feb 2023). I am running version 110.0.1, Windows 10 version 22H2, 64 bit. I want to add more tabs (webpage links) to my Firefox Home Page. Firefox Help/FAQ says that I should select the address bar, enter in a website address, and then click on the "menu button" which is on the right side of the address bar. It is supposed to look like three dots or three lines. However, my address bar does not show that - or at least I can't find it. The picture provided in the online Firefox FAQ doesn't match what I am seeing on my home page. Please let me know how to get this "menu button" to appear. Thank you.

1) When I played a video on Youtube with Firefox via my computer speakers, they worked flawlessly. 2) Then I plugged in my headphones via the headphones jack, there is no sound. 3) I went to Windows settings and checked the volume mixer and tested the sound, the headphones worked. 4) I opened Edge and played a video on Youtube, the headphones work flawlessly. 5) I played a video through my media player, the headphones work flawlessly.

So my conclusion is that it is Firefox that is broken.

I closed Firefox and restarted it and tried steps 1 to 5 above, still got the same results. Firefox did not play any sound over the headphones while all the others worked flawlessly.

I restarted my computer and tried the steps again and still got the same results.

I also deleted Cookies and Site data from Firefox settings and still no luck.

Any suggestions?

I installed Firefox on Windows 10, and when Firefox is running, the taskbar is blank with no icons. I just installed Firefox, logged into my Firefox account, and did nothing else.
