Firefox Community Forum

During an initial visit to slashdot.org Firefox hangs for approx 45 seconds while the status bar says "looked up a.fsdn.com." Subsequent visits during the same browser session load promptly.

This is with Preferences -> General -> Network Settings -> Enable DNS over HTTPS -> Cloudfare or NextDNS. With Firefox DoH disabled the problem is not present. [Interesting side, the machine's systemwide DNS settings are configured for Cloudfare 1.1.1.1 ]

AFAIK all other sites load normally. I've been using the Firefox DOH for several months with only the above site as a problem.

Ideas?

Environment: Firefox desktop 106.x and 107.x macOS 10.13.6 The problem is present in "Troubleshoot Mode" when Firefox DOH is enabled.

Hello, i recently updated firefox. after reboot everything was gone,pages,bookmarks,history,passwords,everything. after the update firefox would not work so i redownloaded it.now everything is gone.i have been using firefox for years,now i cant retrieve my bookmarks,passwords or anything. so i am now afraid to use firefo as my browser as it lost years of my personal internet use and information.

need a new mail account immediately. Zohomail in India blocked my account. Cannot even communicate with them since account is frozen but seems to allow incoming emails.. Can get incoming just no outgoing. Love Firefox..been on it for years. Medical heart failure condition requires a working email account at once. Can you help ?

bold textI have locked myself out and cannot receive e-mails. Forgotmy password. Do not want to lose any bookmarks, etc. Made a mess already. Afraid to go further in trying to solve this myself. I think i did something while exploring Settings for the first time.

I recently switched to WordPress for site hosting, and set up their Titan email. It's worked fine for the first couple weeks, but yesterday after I did a routine clear cache and cookies, my email became a blank white page. The URL looks correct. Have spent several hours with WP help to no solution. Email works fine in Chrome, and all other WP functions are fine in Firefox.

Hi,

I have a problem with Firefox 102.5esr on MacOS 10.13 and storing the user-profile on a SMB-share in the intranet.

On startup I get the error "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional" and as expected, bookmarks and history are not working. Access etc. in the network are correct, I tried it with two different clients on two different servers (Linux-Server and NAS), the profile is a fresh created, deleting and recreating does not help.

If I copy the created profile on the local disk, Firefox starts without an error, bookmarks/history are working, if I copy this profile back to the SMB-share, I get back the error-message.

In the past (I don't remember when it was and which version) this was working with Firefox and today it still works with the current Thunderbird.

Any ideas?

Thanks, kind regards, tg

Hello,

Ever since upgrading to Firefox 107.0, I'm denied access to select website, some of which are corporate websites such as Nokia and others. The latest occurrence had the following reference no#:

Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.nokia.com/phones/support" on this server.

Reference #18.9cf7df17.1669164130.8b3c1e51

If I employ other browsers like Safari or Brave, I'm able to successfully access both this page and others which are restricted on Firefox. So, what might be causing this to happen? Firefox is my preferred browser, therefore I'd like to find a fix. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

FireFox V. 107.0 -MBP-High Sierra.

Lately the last couple of months when I google search webpages then select them, Fire Fox doesnt bring up the article, Its been happening a lot and getting really irritating. So I bring up Google Chrome and it always brings up the article. SEE THE PICTURES. I use only Fire Fox as my browser, I keep Chrome around for when Fire Fox doesnt want to work properly. As you will see in the pictures the same website for both browsers. Fire Fox wont show the article no matter how many times I refresh the page or shut FF down, or reboot my MBP, but Chrome works perfectly every damned time. Why cant Fire Fox open the article but Chrome can? I need your help, any advice is greatly appreciated. SEE THE PICTURES.

I just "refreshed" firefox after it stopped loading all the websites. I then tried to isolate the problem, found out that there is no issues with my firefox and any of its add ons. But as soon as I add Chrome folder and a css to enable multirow bookmarks folder. No website launches. Just white screen. Anyone experienced the same?

Please help as I really need multirow bookmarks. Thank you.

when I'm in eBay I can not open links to "contact seller", "view other items" "visit store" This seemed to happen with one of the Firefox updates. I used to be able to click on these and open them up. This is driving me nuts. I can open them on Google Chrome or Safari.

Downloaded installer using Mac laptop. Failed. Copied installer to Mac Pro (mid 2010) 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon. 10.13.6 Failed. Deleted installer on Mac Pro. Downloaded installer from Mac Pro. Failed. I'm busy and haven't got time to mess around. If no very easy fix please delete purchase and confirm. Thanx

WHAT GOOD DOES IT DO ME TO ADD DEVICES AND TO USE FIREFOX TO SYNC MY PASSWORDS AND EVERYTHING ELSE IF the two devices NEVER SYNC.

I already have firefox on both and I set them up but now the desktop shows no other devices. ' PLEASE IN THE NAME OF HEAVEN TELL ME HOW TO GET MY PASSWORDS UPDATE ON EACH DEVICE WITHOUT HAVING TO DOWNLOAD OR SCAN OR VERIFICATION

I JUST WANT MY PHONE UPDATED

When I try to forward a link from a webpage (using Firefox) it automatically sends it from my email address through Thunderbird. I'd like to switch the setting so it uses my Apple Mail email address. Is this possible?

Even when I'm in Full Screen mode on my Mac, Firefox insists on putting a tab bar at the top of the page; how do I hide that tab bar? I've searched all over the settings and Internet to find an answer, but no luck in finding the answer.

The main idea of "Full Screen Mode" is to maximize the usable display area of the browser window. When I'm using Full Screen Mode, I am intentionally using just one URL. If I need a new window, then I'll get another Full Screen Firefox window (not a tab). This is an incredible waste of screen real estate, to have a single tab consuming an entire row... so irritating!

Firefox didn't used to do this; can you tell which older version that I can use that doesn't have this behavior?

Thanks...
