duplicate of /questions/1460574 thread.

the internet has many sites that say that firefox has an auto fill in form with password, but it is not included in settings. How do I get it? I am tired of typing in my email address on web pages.

After several recent Firefox updates, I can no longer login to my credit card's account page. As a result, I am now using Microsoft Edge Version 127.0.2651.86.

Here is the web address for Barclay Card: https://cards.barclaycardus.com/

I have attached the screenshot of the FF problem on my Windows 10 64bit laptop comp. As you can see, the login section is blocked, with a message "Firefox Can't Open This Page".

Thanks in advance for your help. Richard P.

I am having trouble when logging into a specific website.

The login process is to use login URL(https://online.torfx.com.au/CustomerPortal/login.htm), then enter my email address and password.

Once I select Login, the website should then show my dashboard URL(https://online.torfx.com.au/CustomerPortal/dashboard.htm) but when I use Firefox, I get the Secure Site Not Available error (see attached screenshot).

If I use either Chrome or Edge, I do not have this problem and if you check the status of the connection on both these browers, they say that the Connection is Secure and the URL shows as HTTPS:// , so it appears that Firefox has this issue.

Does any one have any suggestions/advice etc?

Thanks.

Until today it worked fine. But now whenever I try to login to Xfinity I get You don't have permission to access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server. It works fine on Chrome and Edge. I have disabled my add-ons. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc. I have rebooted. I have turned off firewall. I have checked my DNS. I have changed the DNS protection to OFF in Firefox. I have checked my proxy setting (I have no proxy). I have reinstalled Firefox. Etc. Etc. Nothing works. The fact that it works on Chrome and Edge, that it has worked everyday until today gets me confused. I also tried using my mobile phone as a hot spot to make sure it wasn't related to my Internet connection or IP address. Anyone have any ideas?

I tried to reinstall Forefox, could not. Went to setting > apps to unstall firefox. Could not fine firefox in the apps. I went to Deflit Apps. and could not fine it there.

How to enter my password when initiated Firefox

Every time Firefox updates it keeps re-enabling settings on its own.

Specifically 2 settings on the general tab keep enabling themselves in the "browsing" section, "Recommend extensions as you browse" and "Recommend features as you browse"

I have disabled these settings dozens of times now, and every time Firefox updates it keeps re-enabling these 2 settings on its own.

Just now I updated to v128.0 and these 2 settings turned themselves on again.

Why is Firefox not respecting my settings? Why is Firefox allowed to modify my settings without my permission?

I have deleted and reinstalled Firefox already. I don't use profiles and am not signed into the browser, so no settings are getting carried over that way.

After running scannow and chkdisk on my Win 11 laptop, the fonts for menus and toolbars in Firefox (not for web pages) is unreadably small (about 6pt). I have tried adjusting layout.css.devPixelsPerPx, ui.textScaleFactor, and browser.display.os-zoom-behavior to recommended valus as well as above or below values. So far, no help. Please advise.

Firefox autofill always fills my phone number as +!(xxx)xxx-xxxx, despite most forms not accepting the country code. I have tried to remove it in the saved autofill address, but it keeps putting it back in. This makes the autofill not work. Why can I not disable this!?!?!?!

All of a sudden, when I hover over a tab, a small window of the web site that tab is in, appears. Never happened before.

I did go into Performance Options - Visual Effects and unchecked "enable peek," but it didn't work.

How do I stop these windows from appearing?

Windows 10.

Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit) Mozilla Firefox Snap for Ubuntu canonical-002 - 1.0

Running on kubuntu Linux 24.04, kernel version 6.8.0-41-generic (64-bit) KDE Plasma Version 5.27.11 Qt Version 5.15.13

I've posted a description of my problem on the kubuntu forums: https://www.kubuntuforums.net/forum/newbie-support/help-the-new-guy/681835-firefox-eating-up-a-lot-of-cpu

Here is a synopsis of my posts on that thread to distill the most noteworthy symptoms:

I have snap Firefox installed.

$ snap list Name Version Rev Tracking Publisher Notes bare 1.0 5 latest/stable canonical✓ base core22 20240731 1564 latest/stable canonical✓ base firefox 129.0.2-1 4793 latest/stable mozilla✓ - firmware-updater 0+git.5007558 127 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - gnome-42-2204 0+git.510a601 176 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - gtk-common-themes 0.1-81-g442e511 1535 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - snapd 2.63 21759 latest/stable canonical✓ snapd thunderbird 128.1.0esr-1 507 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - $

If I start firefox from the shell command line, it runs fine. It runs the shell script in /usr/bin/firefox, which ultimately executes /snap/bin/firefox. Clearly that shell script is doing some configuration that I don't understand.

If I​ hit Alt-space I see the menu in the referenced screen grab (see attached).

If I select the first entry, to run firefox from the command line, it has the same effect as starting /usr/bin/firefox from a bash shell; it works fine. However, if I select the third entry, firefox does not play any video; I've mostly tested with YouTube videos that have actual video and audio.

I'm not sure what gets executed when I select the third option from the Alt-space menu. It appears from doing a "ps -ef" that it's the same /snap/firefox/... executable. But I'm wondering why is this entry in the Alt-space menu and how does it get initialized or 'configured' to run.

Additionally, if I do start firefox from the entry with the firefox browser icon, and it fails to play video, I must then uninstall firefox using snap and then reinstall in order to get video playback to work. That is, after a failed start, simply exiting firefox and restarting it from the shell command line will not work; firefox will not play video correctly at all.

I also noticed that on my PC desktop, "snap list" lists firefox as "firefox 129.0.2-1 4793 latest/stable mozilla✓ -"

But on my old Lenova laptop running the same kubuntu version, "snap list" lists firefox as "firefox 129.0.2-1 4757 latest/stable mozilla✓ -"

​I'm up to date on both systems via "sudo apt update"' and "sudo apt upgrade"

Even more frustrating, today, for the first time, despite starting firefox from the command line, video still didn't play. I had to uninstall firefox and reinstall it.

Hello, PG&E just updated their webpage and it doesn't allow me to sign in. It informs me that Fire Fox isn't a compatible browser, all other websites are fine. It suggests Chrome as the preferred browser. We pay our utilities through their site and we enjoy Fire Fox.Can anyone help resolve this issue? Thanks

I have been running into issues if Firefox affecting other programs. One example - closing a game from the big fish game manager. Normal termination of the game hangs up. Closing firefox, usually via the windows task manager, frees up the game manager and the game properly terminates. However, before having task manager close firefox, I see a number anywhere from 6 to 12 or more - firefox(10) for example - trying to re-launch firefox gets an endless round of messages about firefox not responding and a request to close firefox. So far I have only found one effective workaround to this issue. Booting into safe mode and clearing temp and prefetch. This usually holds but I have been seeing this every day for the last 4 days. What is going on and how do I fix it?

I am unable to login to Spectrum.net. I was able to login until a couple of days ago. I can login through Edge but I don't want to use Edge. I contacted Spectrum and since I can log in through edge they say it is a browser problem.

Hi, I try to visit my website ahsapsaksi.com. When I visit on firefox(Desktop and ios). I see the isimtescil template which is the old version of the website. However when I access from another browser like opera I see the updated website(welcome to acme page) only with VPN connection. I tried to delete cookies, visited in private tab etc., however I couldn't manage to see my updated website in firefox(in both desktop and ios).

Can you help me please?

Now a new update. When I visit the website on firefox with VPN connection, I saw the updated version, and from now on I cannot see the website without the VPN at all. I dont understand what is going on. But I tried to clear that cookie many times. Now it looks like the cookie is deleted not by deleting in the settings but using VPN. Now the problem is I cannot visit the website without VPN. Can you explain my experience? why did it happen?

I've been experiencing issues with my firefox browser (most updated version 129.0.2, running on Mac Sonoma 14.6.1). Seemingly at random times, it decides to start displaying weird symbols all over. The settings, the menu, the text on webpages, it all reverts to these weird symbols. Restarting the app and my laptop works sometimes, but only for a little bit of time then a day or two later this starts to happen again. I've tried to look at other help articles but it doesn't seem to be a font thing, it's becoming really frustrating and I hope there's an easy fix otherwise I won't be able to keep using this browser as I share my screen for work often.

This is what sows when i try to get newsmax.com I tired newsmax.com but get the same message as below.

Secure Connection Failed

I always been able to connect w/newsmax.com - until now. When it does not connect tells me to contact that site. Well... I tried and I can not get in to let them know. How do I fix this problem? Thank you in advance for your assistance and reply. Sandra

When using the Firefox browser I find that You Tube videos freeze up after a short while, and the whole website becomes unresponsive. I do not have this problem if I use the Chrome browser, so apparently the problem is specific to the Firefox browser.
