Firefox gemenskapsforum

(Idk where else to post this on the site)

Idk exactly what happened, other than that I changed emails on my Mozilla account and when I signed into connect.mozilla.org with it, it had me create a new username. My old profile page is still up.

I have a Mac running on Ventura v13.6.7. I also run Express VPN. F/F v 128.0.2[64 bit]. I have as my home page the BBC.Most of the time if I click on sport or the weather button the screen starts flashing.I cleared the cashe that lasted a couple of days then it started flashing again. By the way when the screen is flashing the reload button is flashing. Any help greatly appreciated.

I have been using Firefox for quite a while. Recently, I cannot use Firefox for Youtube TV. The audio plays, but the first screen is frozen, and does not play the live video. I have toggled the hardware acceleration without resolution.

Any ideas?

Thank you

Installed new FIOS router. I used a VPN and Firefox to access Facebook, Yahoo, and a number of other sites (like a bank). With the new router, I can't access these

Trying to upload a graphic file of a book cover to Kindle. I get a message: your device browser

How do I enlarge my device's browser window for Firefox?

Was clearing out some files yesterday in the middle of taking screenshots on Netflix through firefox (per usual) when suddenly whenever I go into a netflix TV show I get the purple-green image down below that's all wrong and corrupted. Feeling especially confused because I can take screenshots anywhere else on other browsers or Firefox, even on the Netflix home page, perfectly fine - but this format below stopped working?? Am hoping to resolve the issue quickly cause one of my Favourite shows I wanted to post about is having a new season drop in like 2 days :(

Is there a way to keep specific cookies while deleting others on exit?

The "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" option ignores the "Manage Exceptions" option, which exists for nothing, since allowed exceptions are also deleted on exit.

Tks

Currently on firefox 128.02 macbook pro Sonoma 14.5

I've done some research but haven't yet found what I can do to remedy this error. It only happens on some websites but is repetitive and cannot be overcome by reboot of mac or firefox. I've only seen it the last couple of weeks so it may be due to a firefox change though I'm not sure. Thanks for any help!

I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum, but there seems to be nothing else which seems to fit better.

I have developed an iOS App which supports Firefox Sync since about 10 years, so users of my App can directly access their firefox bookmarks. Within these years it seems that Firefox Sync has deprecated the BrowserID authentication method (which I didn't noticed because everthing worked fine) but only since recently the relevant API call "certificate/sign" is no longer working, so the authentication process will fail.

Therefore I'm looking for information how exactly I can implement the authentication now. Unfortunytely it is very hard to find reliable API documentation. Most API docs that are found seem to be heavily outdated and still list the no longer valid "certificate/sign" API call. Even the docs which already mention that Browser ID will be canceled in the future are also already outdated and half of the links lead to 404 pages.

So I would like to ask the following: Is there any definite valid up-to-date API specification for Firefox Sync and its authentication process available (suitable for third-party Apps which can not rely on Firefoxs own internal frameworks and code), and where exactly can I find it. And if a need to register an app ID/client ID and secret to be able to authenticate the App, how and where can I do this? Can anyone point me to the right direction?

Thanks for all the help...

My school library has a proxy server for connecting to subscriptions at various content providers. The site certificate is wildcarded, because the proxy server's name becomes the domain for the particular site to which the authenticated user is connecting. This has been the recommended way for libraries to connect institutionally with commercial content providers since at least 2000. The attachment shows the response that I get when I connect to my library with Firefox. You aren't allowed the opportunity to tell Firefox to accept the certificate as legit and connect anyway, which is extremely annoying.

The Multi-Account Containers extension allows a proxy to be assigned to a container. The proxy address can be specified [type://host:port]. Is there any way that a proxy which requires a username & password can be assigned to a container?

How do I prevent Firefox/duckduckgo from instead of opening a newspaper site (eg: www.nytimes.com), INSTEAD opening the site with "feed" in front of it (eg: feed://www.nytimes.com)?

The web browser does this all the time, and I almost never want the site with "feed:" in front of it.

Advice on how to change the settings to prevent this would be welcome. I suspect this happened with an update but ever since has been continuous.

Only happens on my laptop, not on my iPhone. I have an Apple M1 chip MacBookPro, running MacOS Sonoma 14.5. My Firefox browser is the latest version.
