Website Access Errors-

On my Android Samsung phone, using Firefox ver. 127.0.2

I am no longer able to access the website www.kvi.com. (A radio station in Seattle) Firefox returns the following error on the tab: 403 Forbidden. I am not using private browsing. I am able to access this site it on my Windows 10 PC no problem. I have deleted and cleared the Cache & all other options. I am not running a VPN, or other adblocking extensions, As recommended in the help sections. I can access Google.com and other sites no problem.

This sucks. Other than clearing the Cache's I have not made any changes. It worked last week. It has to be the Android version of Firefox as the PC version of Firefox is working fine.

Please advise, M-

I need to connect to my employers Citrix portal tot start a Citrix session for my daily job. The problem is that when try to login using my credentials nothing happens except for the loading icon of Firefox that keeps "spinning" (see image).

When I do the same in another browser, like Chromium for example, everything works fine.

I already tried the following steps:

- Installing an older version of the Citrix Workspace app - Reinstalling Firefox - Disabling the blocking extensions

I am using the following versions of components:

OS: Linux Mint Vanessa 21 Citrix Workspace app: 24.5.0.76 Firefox: 129.0

Other colleagues report the same issues when using Firefox whether in Windows of Linux.

Any help would be much appreciated?

bold text since the last update I have been getting a whole bunch of notices that I must "dismiss" when I start Firefox.

    How can I stop them from ?

Hi Firefox,

I have login on several devices using this account but it not syncing the the stuff across the devices Please if you can help here without losing the data.

Hello one and all,

For the longest while, FF has been wasting a lot of my time by being non-responsive a lot. Is there anything I can do to eliminate the non-responsiveness?

The other problem that I have experience also on a regular basis when searching is waiting for Google to transfer info to FF.

Years ago, this wasn't the case. I am also hoping that a fix exists to speed up FF.

Thanks for any help I can get to put these two issues behind me.

Just had the most recent upgrade to Thunderbird. I now get a microsoft message when trying to download new messages, saying it cannot access an invalid certificate. Prior to this upgrade, I had to manually validate the certificate for my email provider every time I re-opened THunderbird, or tried to send outgoing emails. Although inconvenient, this system worked and I could use the email provider system. Thunderbird will not download any emails now or give me the usual error message that I can manually override to get emails to work. The mail server is: mail.besttelecom.net.au

For the past week or two, TB only downloads 3 or 4 (never more than 4) messages at a time from my Gmail. Now, instead of just starting TB and it downloading all new messages, I have to click Get Messages multiple times to retrieve everything. I have seen similar questions here and the answers have all been variations of blaming the user. So: a) I have not changed any settings. b) It used to download all available messages, whether when TB started up or when I clicked Get Messages. c) Just now on starting TB, it took 6 clicks to retrieve 20 message. They are all text, no attachments, so the total size would be in KB, not MB. d) Using Speedtest, my connection speed is over 300 MB/second so it isn't a connection speed limit on my side. And I doubt it is a speed limitation on Gmail's side.

With all of that in mind, I would appreciate any suggestions of what could be causing the problem and what the fix might be.

I know I'm not the first person to report this problem, but the webappsstore.sqlite file in my profile folder is very large, over 85 MB. I don't want to delete it because I don't want to lose my bookmark data, which are stored in this database (I even double-checked this by temporarily moving the database out of my profile folder, basically as if it were "deleted," and started Firefox, and sure enough all my bookmarks' data were gone).

I tried running `sqlite3 vacuum` on it, but that only reduced it to 79 MB. Is there another way to further cleanup old or unimportant data in this database?

Just recently, I noticed that Firefox on Android has been added to the “Open with” list and allows us to open local PDF files by using “Open with” in any file manager and selecting Firefox. However, local image files, videos, and text/HTML files still cannot be opened by Firefox. I believe that all the functionality is already built into the program’s code. Adding Firefox to the “Open with” list for images, videos, and text would require very little effort. There are hundreds of different viewers in the Google Play Store. However, Firefox’s shortcuts and collections could provide us with a very convenient way to organize locally stored information.

Hi how do I get all my old device firefox information synchronised to my new phone. All I seem to have got is my bookmarks. I have not got my collections, history or other information.

I would like to connect to Suddenlink.net via Optimum.net. It does show up on Optimum.net account on web page. I have a screen shot of the constant results of my days of efforts. I have two other connections via gmail.com and it works fine. I have people who are still using Suddenlink emails to me and I would like to see them on Thunderbird. Thanks for the fine software and any help with this. //... Joe

Hi,

I know this must be weird

and I am aware of `about:config` -> `layout.word_select.stop_at_punctuation`

here is what bugs me:

with above setting to OFF , when I double click on IP address, like `123.123.123.123` , it selects all , exactly what I want

on the other hand, sometimes I need click on domains , for example I am visiting `https://firefox.org/` , and in address bar , if I double click the domain , it selects `https://firefox.org/` but I want it only to select the `firefox` or `org` depends on where I clicked , as the punctuation OFF only applied to IP, but keep ON with all other text

is this possible ?

Best regards,

If you go to "view", "toolbars", "customize toolbox", you'll see a box titled "search". Problem is, it's worthless. It used to be, you could either search in there using your pre-selected search engine or click on one of the others that are displayed and search using that one. Now, it just sits there taking space. What is the purpose of this? Another thread here titled, "[[Pressing Enter in empty search bar doesn't work anymore|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1452133?page=2#answer-1669039]]", discusses how the search page no longer works either.

If using just the search bar is "a power that be's" version of efficiency, it's not.

Currently I am using Thunderbird for two e-mail accounts, an imap account with my university and a pop account with my local utility company. The local utility is phasing out their support for e-mail and suggested customers migrate to gmail. I have created a gmail account and successfully added it to Thunderbird. I'm now trying to move my many years of messages from my pop account to my new gmail account by dragging them from one account to the other in Thunderbird. Many times when dragging folders, groups of messages, or even individual messages from my pop account to my new gmail account, nothing happens for quite sometime and then I get an error that the gmail imap server has timed out. Sometimes the moves work great but after a while I can't move anything. I close Thunderbird and come back later to find that I can move a few more things before timing out.
