Firefox Community Forum

Is there a way to force FF to use HTTP/3? There are multiple instances (youtube, for example) when site says "alt-svc: h3", but FF ignores it and keeps using at best HTTP/2.

I use a 3rd party password manager that has a Firefox browser extension. Using usernames and passwords is no problem. But for sites that I have passkeys saved for, Firefox tries to intercept the passkey request and validate the request on it's own. If I go into about:config and set security.webauthn.enable_macos_passkeys to False, the passkey request is just not accepted at all and the login request errors out.

I need the browser to be able to pass these passkey requests to my extension based password manager, not to be interpreted by Firefox itself.

The requested functionality works fine in Chrome and Chromium variants such as Edge and Brave, btw.

In seeing other answers to this dilemma it presents another problem. I do use sync. But what troubles me is IF I need to give out the password for someone to use the internet that person now has access to my passwords. Since there seems no way, unless I shutoff sync. Is this correct? Should there be some Secondary password? Passwordpasswordpasswordpasswordetc.

Hi, guys! This is driving me crazy! PLEASE, HELP!

Here, both Google Docs and .pdf files (from any site) keep jumping pages while I'm reading.

For example, from page 2, it goes to 9, then I scroll back up and it's on 15, etc.

I've already tried deleting all cookies, clearing the cache, completely uninstalling Firefox from my PC, but it always happens. I'm having this issue for weeks.

I tried uninstalling extensions, but I can't solve it. It's a nightmare.

ps: I'm Pop OS user (linux based on ubuntu)

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.

I open PDF from my files system or an app (Zotero f.e.). I make annotations since the annotation tools in Firefox are nice. Just a few highlights, maybe comment, underlines, whatever. I want to save the file and quit Firefox.

BUT - Firefox doesn't automatically save the opened file but rather wants me to "save as" a new file to be downloaded and chosen to be saved somewhere specificaly. I cannot just "save", I have to "save as" like I would download or create a new file.

I don't want to create new downloaded file to save somewhere else. I want to save annotations and such changes directly to the original file so I can just hop in and out of the file when I want to continue reading or edit annotations f.e..

MS Edge let's you save the changes to the file right to the original file so you can just hit "save" (ctrl+s) and close the window.

Hopefuly my question for clarification is somewhat understandable.

Thank you for your time

Hi all,

I'm using Firefox 125.0 (64-bit) on Fedora and for file downloads, I have the options "Ask whether to open or save files" and "Always ask you where to save files" enabled.

This basically works, Firefox opens a file selection dialog and I can select where I want to save my downloads - so far, so good.

The weird thing is, the default location that is shown in this dialog seems to change every time I download a file. I would expect to see the last download location as the default option, but that is not what happens.

When I check about:config, I can see the last used download path is saved as browser.download.lastDir perfectly fine, but it is not set as the default for the next download.

Is there a parameter I can set so this last path is used again?

Thanks,

M.

I am using Firefox 128.0 on Fedora 40. Whenever i am playing a youtube video its saying "An error occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID: YfAmDqxb_Y3iWVfB) Learn More" I have no issue with ad blocking add-ons because i have Youtube Premium, so hopefully that's not an issue. I have tried few solutions from the forum , which were :

1. Unchecking "Use hardware acceleration"  Under Performance tab in Firefox
2. Using firefox safe mode
3. Refreshing Firefox
4. Deleting my cache/history
5. Enabling "Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc." in my addons

But still i am having the same issue, its been 2 days, I am unable to find an appropriate solution to this. Kindly help me regarding this.

The integrated webcam (IMC Networks Integrated Camera, according to lsusb) on my linux laptop does not work in firefox (v124). It works in desktop apps (eg webcamoid), and chromium. I've checked the permissions (about:preferences#privacy), and that is not the problem. about:support does not list the device in the input at all. I've tried using LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libv4l/libv4l1compat.so, but that has not helped. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I had 5 accounts show up whenever I opened the email. In about the past 2 weeks 1 account stopped doing this. How can I get this account to do what it did and shoe up with the other 4 ???

Hi, I'm not sure if this is a bug, or me not using FF properly.

I want Firefox in general to ask me, which profile to use when started. So in the Profile-Manager, I removed the checkbox for "Use selected profile without asking as startup".

Now, I wanted to create a shortcut for a specific profile, so I tried running `firefox -P "myProfile"` or even `firefox -p "/path/to/myProfile"`. In both cases I get the window asking me which profile to use.

How can I select an elliptic curves ? I mean, a P-256 of a P-385. Is there a turnaround on linux Ubuntu OpenSSL to impose an elliptic curve in the communication with the servers without to let the choice to the server priority ?

Thanks

Well I am on the near end of Support for Windows 7 SP1 Pro here for Firefox 107.1, and very similar with me, instead of Stop Errors, I get complete Computer Freeze ups, and don't have Hardware Acceleration enabled on it, but I did some Evidence that the Freeze ups maybe due to too many Firefox processes running and apparently causing some issues of PID handling which is causing which I did a test and found out CSRSS.exe maybe having difficulty with the Multiple Firefox Processes in some versions of Windows 7, 8.1 & 10, last known problem was discovery of the Win32K. sys Lockdown Exploit which to some note is also Security Exploit.
