Firefox Community Forum

I have been running firefox as my default browser for years. However, it has recently become difficult to get it to open (had to press the start tab several times), and now won't open at all. when I clicked on the app tab, the little icon begins to spin then stops. I have restarted my computer and just now uninstalled and reinstalled the program. No change. I have tried the tab on my desktop, and from the app page but it just won't kick in. I am at a total loss. I have a VPN, but turning it on or off makes no difference. what is wrong?

I noticed today that there's a small blue cube appears at the tip of the mousecursor inside a firefox window , I guess it's some keyboard shortcut I accidentally activated but can't find any info on where to disable

Hello so my computer crashed from a power outage and firefox decided to open random tabs i haven't had opened I ages but didn't bother to open the tabs i had previously had opened. I want these tabs back

This current version of Firefox (126.0) is preventing Yahoo! Comments from showing/displaying in ANY Yahoo! article. After I finished reading a Yahoo! article, the Yahoo! Comments is viewed but upon clicking on Comments, it just disappeared. It happens in any Yahoo! article with Comments. I used Safari to see if I experience similar issue but Safari is able to show/display Yahoo! Comments upon clicking on them. I have no other browser plug-in or app in Firefox preventing Yahoo! Comments from showing, it seems to be a Firefox JavaScript issue.

I play the game at https://word-salad.archive.org/, but most of the time it's considered insecure. This is the error I get: Error code: SSL_ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR_ALERT. Yet, it will come on if I enter the url later in the day. Do you know why it's a hit and miss url? I would think that if they fixed it once, it would be okay.

the bookmarks menu won't list alphabetically. I have gone to manage bookmarks and chose sort A to Z. It will sort right then, but when I exit that menu it goes right back to not alphabetical

I'm curious about integrating Internet Download Manager with Firefox. Can you provide a quick guide or steps on how to achieve this seamlessly?

Please solve my this quary.

For about the last 5 days I am not able to use Google Search on my MacBook Air using Firefox. My start page is Earthlink. I keep getting this error message ( Application error ; a client side-exception has. occurred ( see the browser console for more information ). My email is [edited] @earthlink.net. Could the problem be Earthlink or Firefox. I am also unable to use Ebay, but when I switch to Chrome I can do both.

The title pretty much sums it up. I even tried drastic measures such as logging out then completely uninstalling Firefox and removing any leftover data on both platforms. After reinstalling and connecting to the Firefox account they will sync with previous data but any new data I add on Windows won't show up on Android and vice versa. I also obviously tried forcing a sync manually... I really wish I didn't have to switch to another password manager any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Am I understanding this correctly?

HTML backup (bookmarks) doesn't support tags and annotations, but JSON backup does, and JSON backup doesn't preserve the website favicons, but HTML backup does?  

So, what I can do, is restore my (saved) bookmarks using JSON backup, then restore the HTML backup, this would get my tags and annotations, and the website favicons back? But the downside, I will need to remove duplicates?

Every time i update firefox now it keeps **re** ticking the two studies boxes ... microsoft style :(

How can i stop this new mozilla behaviour happening every time i update please and protect my privacy ???

somewhere in about:config perhaps??

Please help an old dummie? I have an existing FF install on a laptop. I would like to clone it (with bookmarks, settings tiles etc) onto a new PC. An article I read said open FF on the PC you want to sync. This is confusing! "Synchronising" is ambiguous, meaning 2-way. (but which way) "copy from" & "copy to" would be clear. I am worried I will synch(copy) from the new to the old....... effectively deleting/wiping out all my preferences in my original install. OR (preferably) Is there a way to just copy the whole installation from my original PC onto a USB stick & installing FF to the new PC from it? Many Thanks
