While on a trip my laptop became corrupt, including Firefox. Firefox did a sync so I'm sure the copy on the servers is corrupt. When I get home and turn on my PC, how can I be sure Firefox with upload "a good sync" and not download the corrupt one and corrupt my PC. All themes, add-ons, etc. were deleted but bookmarks and bookmark toolbar seems OK.

I'm constantly adding names to the Firefox dictionary so that it'll stop showing them as misspelled. But the one area where it just refuses to do what I want is when a word/name is possessive. As an example, I had no issue with adding the name "Targaryen" to the dictionary, but it refused to add "Targaryen's". No matter how many times I right-clicked and choose "Add to Dictionary", it always ended up with that wavy red line underneath.

I tried going in an manually adding some possessive words and names to the personal dictionary file, but Firefox STILL registered them as incorrect.

Until right this moment, as I was typing this post out. I tried to add "Targaryen's" again just to see, and suddenly... the dictionary added it. Tried with a few more words; same result. As long as I typed it in this text box, Firefox was suddenly happy to add it to its dictionary.

This is... all kinds of weird. Why would Firefox only add words to its personal dictionary if they are added while on a certain website? That's inconvenient and weird for so many people, and definitely feels like something that needs to be looked into.

I'm hoping you can assist me with the following issue. Unable to access NCAA Football or CBS Sports websites even when the website is bookmarked and/or listed as an exception in my Firefox settings (CBS Sports). Please explain why the exception list and bookmarking websites no longer allows me to access these sites. This is a recent issue.

This issue has become a nuisance and unfortunately as much as I trust Firefox (I actually donate monthly) I may have to start using a different web browser such as Microsoft Edge if this issue cannot be resolved.

Thank you in advance for you help.

Sincerely, Mary

Trying to log into Paypal. This is an account used on a regular basis. No problem until this afternoon.

Version 105.0.3 is the current version. I updated Firefox to this after I encountered the issue.

Try to go to the home page and I get:

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to paypal.com. Peer’s Certificate has been revoked.

Error code: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

I can log in using Edge, on Duck-Duck Go on iPad, Paypal app on my iPhone, and my wife can log in on Firefox. Not sure what version, but she's usually behind me.

Recent scans of Malwayre Bytes and Windows Defender and Norton Power Eraser - no issues found.

Any ideas?

I know there were quite a few people that did not like the 98.0 update to the Downloads Panel... but I was definitely not one of them, haha. I loved it, and so did several friends of mine! Unfortunately, I, along with my 4 Windows devices, no longer have that feature. :( When something is downloaded, I am now prompted with the Windows prompt to "Open with Firefox , Open , or Save" instead of it popping up in the Download Panel with the "Open , Save" options. When I choose save and the location, the file is downloaded and a green checkmark shows on the download icon, but it doesn't open.

Strangely, it DOES open if I have that file type set to "Open with Firefox" automatically... but no other option does it work for, when it 150% did before. I have the "Show panel when download begins" option checked, and I also made sure my about:config option is "true" - still doesn't work. :'( Can anyone help me? Thank you so much!

I'm Using ubuntu 18.04 my bluetooth audio stopped working to my S8 earbuds. They are connected OK, but no sound. Works on Chromium and Firefox on Windows, so it's not the earbuds.

Something has probably changed in the config file, but I don't know where to look.

hello and good day to whom ever this massage gets to.

I just updated my windows at my work pc and all my programs were deleted and so I got signed out of all my accounts. I reinstalled firefox and tried to sign in but because its been a while I couldn't remember my password and had to reset it. but after all this and when I finally got into my account (with the same email address I was using until now) no matter how many times I click sync, nothing gets added to my bookmarks, history, passwords, etc.

then I checked with one on my phone to see whether that was working or not, and that was signed out as well and asks me to sign in again. I've been using this browser for years now and have many save information on this account I CAN'T LOSE ALL THAT. the primary account was on my laptop which is at home and currently I am terrified of turning that on and finding everything's gone again. please help me get my info back. I can't remember years of saved bookmarks and passwords.
