Firefox Community Forum

why and or how can i update Firefox. i am running Firefox 126. every time i open the browser the auto update opens and fails to download. i tried loading it through Safari, also failed. anyone have a clear and simple solution? the forum seems to have a lot of complicated work a rounds. any help would be appreciated

Firefox error "Video unavailable This content isn't available". even though videos work in other browsers?

Cleaned cache etc. Does the same in incognito mode.

As I said in the title, the spellchecker add-on I use, LanguageTool, does not work on this site. I am not fine with that. What's the best way to get it working here? Any answers that amount to "you don't" are not acceptable.

Ever since the last Firefox update that released, the Firefox on my home computer is extremely slow. Takes 5 minutes to load a page. I open Chrome or Edge and everything loads extremely fast no issues. I do not want to leave Firefox as it is my favorite browser and has been for many years. What can I do to troubleshoot this issue?

I'm trying to use Navigate360 to schedule appointments with my College advisor. It was working fine a couple of days ago, but now every time I try to access the tab for appointments I'm left with a white page with the nav bar still there.

Occasionally, after visiting a legit/non-questionable/non-sleazy website that I’ve never been to before, I'll get an email from that site immediately, after leaving the site. These have been just plain websites that are selling a product (roofing, windows, etc.). HOW ARE THEY GETTING MY EMAIL ADDRESS???!!! So, far this only happens when using Firefox.

Are they getting it thru Firefox AFTER I’ve used my email address (as a username) after having logged out of a previously visited website? (And yes, I know I can just delete my history after leaving those logged in websites, but I shouldn’t have to... However, when/if I do log into a financial institution, I ALWAYS CLOSE that browser window after logging out.)

OR, are they possibly getting my email address thru a Firefox extension, “Video DownloadHelper” (installed thru Firefox), where I CAN SEE my email address (and license#) listed in the extension’s settings for its Companion App? And, if it IS this extension, how can I get Mozilla to block that info from sites I visited??!!! (other than uninstalling the extension)

Using Firefox, v129.0.2, 64-bit. and Windows 10 Pro, 22H2, build 19045.4780 (although Firefox shows: "Windows_NT 10.0 19045"). Also, auto-fill is unchecked in Firefox settings and I NEVER save usernames/passwords in of thru my browser.

Basically almost every time I turn on my PC I have to Restore the Firefox installation because it keeps pages loading forever without ever doing anything. Currently using Firefox Nightly without any issue of the sort except that every time I have to restore the install for regular Firefox some of the extensions go back to default configuration.

'I wonder if Firefox could be the source of a problem that I have recently encountered. All of the online subscriptions, clothing accounts (Lands End, LLBean, etc.) no longer accept my user names or passwords. Could the problem originate in a change in Firefox?

My router address with extensions is xx.xx.xx.xx/#/login. My previous router was xx.xx.xx.xx/cgi-bin/MANGA/index.cgi. When I type the IP address without anything after it, the URL entry changes from the new address to the old one every couple of seconds. I can't log into the router because it keeps changing. I disabled URL autocomplete, but it doesn't change it. Whenever I enter the address, it still completes with first the correct and then the incorrect URL.

How do I stop this? Thanks in advance.

When using built in search (google default) -- browser stops responding. Shows Firefox new tab background when loading the search. Issue resolves on Firefox close and re-open. Paste and go, creating new tabs also fail with same 'new tab background' displayed. Issue is intermittent but appears often, at least 4-5 times a day.

Tested same sample search with google chrome in same time period, no issue.

Issue appeared around the V99 update. Fix would be greatly appreciated - exiting and re-opening browser, dropping all tabs to reload is a serious usability issue.

hi, i have a problem with "open previous page and tabs" because that don't work, i have a macbook and when i close firefox and reopen it, i lose every tabs previously open, how can i fix the problem ?

Hi,

I've got Sync on a laptop and phone. My phone will see all the current tabs on my desktop, but the desktop is out of date by about a week no matter how many times I hit Sync Now.

I have signed out and signed in again on my laptop but this did nothing. I saved a new bookmark on my desktop to force a sync, nothing. I did the same on my phone, nothing. Short of signing out on my phone and possibly risk the one that DOES actually Sync, what else can I do?

My phone is an Android, my laptop is using Windows 11. My laptop has not reset recently.

Thank you.
