I-Firefox Community Forum

I go on the https://www.medicare.gov website to look at Medicare claims. I get an email from them when there are new summary notices and I click on the link to view them. That brings me to the login page and after I log in I get a page that lists summary notices starting with the most recent. For each notice, there are three links you can click: download, print, and open. I've always clicked "open", which has always brought up the summary I chose, I think in a new tab or window, but I'm really not sure, it's been a while.

This time when I clicked on "open" for the first summary notice, it stayed in the same tab and under the title listing the particular notice I got the following:

" Firefox Can’t Open This Page

To protect your security, api.medicare.gov will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window.

Learn more… "

So I went back to the original list, right clicked "open" and clicked to open in a new tab and got the same error. As I was writing this just now I noticed that the error message says you need to open it in a new window, so I just tried that instead of a new tab, but I still got the same error message.

Interestingly, I thought I'd check clicking "download" just to make sure I could get my new notices. That opened a new tab and the notice came up!! Now I'm sitting here trying to remember if I used to click "open" or "download" and feeling like this computer drives me crazier and crazier every day I use it!

I am submitting this anyway for two reasons. First of all, if I'm confused other people are probably also confused. Secondly, I want to know if there's anything wrong on my end that I should be fixing or if this is a problem on Medicare's end. Obviously I want to let them know if it's their problem so that it can be fixed.

I just got a notice about a Firefox update but I haven't installed it yet and I haven't tried this in any other browser (I really hate using Chrome, especially for something as private as Medicare, but if that will help you please let me know and I can try it there).

One other thing that may or may not be relevant. I've had my Social Security and Medicare accounts for many years. Recently I received a notice from Social Security that they're upgrading to a more secure login system (sorry I've forgotten exactly what they call it) and said that if you're using an older account you have to create a new login with their new site and it would work across your federal government accounts. I did that but Medicare used my old login information and it worked. I don't know if that would be causing this problem, I don't think they've terminated the old system altogether just yet but I'm not sure. This probably doesn't make a difference but I thought I should mention it just in case.

Thank you for any suggestions you have about this, and please let me know if you think I should notify the medicare.gov people as well.

Hi,

I have a Mac with Sonoma. Somehow a while ago I ended up with Firefox ESR, which I was told that will not be supported after September.

I am a non-technical user. While I do have Safari and Chrome, I would prefer to continue using Firefox.

Could you please let me know the steps to execute to somehow switch from the ESR version to the current normal version without loosing settings, bookmarks or ending up with problems? Thanks in advance.

Good evening, since I switched to the latest version of FireFox (129.0), I can no longer stream movies or live shows on Mycanal, only Netflix works. In addition, my Google searches sometimes don't come up, the tab opens and nothing happens. When I receive a link by Mail and I click on it, it doesn't work. I've been using FireFox for 15 years and this is the first time I've encountered these problems (I specify that I have the Avast one antivirus), could this be the cause? Can you help me solve this problem? Thank you.

release 129.0.1 is not working right. This website: https://www.sofer.co.uk/alefbet is supposed to draw the Hebrew letters to show how to write them. It was working last night but is not working today. The page does not scroll down either. The website functions correctly in Chrome, so it is not a website issue. I'd prefer to use firefox for all my browsing rather than have to go to Chrome for this website. Thanks.

I use Firefox on my desktop PC. I have HULU on my PC. Sporting events and movies will not playback, but they do if I switch to Microsoft Edge My email is, dannybakertumbleweed@outlook.com

I updated to version 129.0 and Hulu stopped streaming and news video imbedded in news articles will no longer load. I have removed and reinstalled Firefox and cleared all cache. It is affecting my desktop and laptop. Both operating systems are windows 10 64 bit. I made sure the Firefox download was 64 bit. The problem is not the websites as they will load and attempt to load content but it behaves as if it is being blocked. It is not my antivirus because I have turned is off and there is no difference.

Can someone please tell me how to change the hours for my business website that comes up on a search with firefox? I have changed the hours everywhere else, my google profile, facebook, yelp. Where is firefox getting this data and how so I change it??? my website is soluna massage (location louisivlle ky). When someone searches "soluna massage" in firefox, firefox gives data that is incorrect about my business, specifically the hours. Please help! Thank you, karen [edited phone# and email from public community forum]

Is there any way for me to remove Bing appearing as the first thing whenever I open up Firefox? I've been using Firefox for a few years now and I never really bothered figuring it but now I actually want to. Any help is appreciated.

While scrolling around I saw something that said Firefox thinks I'm operating under 'Windows 10. NOT TRUE'. I've had Windows 11 for a while now. Does it make any difference? Russ Marshall

Where are passwords imported from Safari saved to in my Mozilla or Firefox accounts?

When you navigate to a web site which is slow to respond the address bar keeps showing the previous address until the web page loads or a network error occurs. It may take minutes. It happens for instance when clicking a a web search result or when the site itself redirects to another web page.

This Firefox behavior is there for years and I even remember that Internet Explorer had the same behavior during its era.

Is there any particular reason to do that? Because I only see downsides: for instance, you can't copy the URL to check in another program or device.

Somebody might argue that it's because you can press Esc during load and stay on the previous page. I think it would be more convenient to revert the address bar value when this happens.

Starting yesterday, 10 Aug, I can't sign into Kaiser Permanente. Never had this problem before. Message is:

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

This is the second important site with sign in problems. Can you cut whatever you are dong out so I can visit kp.org, and bank of america? I can sign in fine on all the other browsers just fine. Includes Brave, Chrome and Edge.

I looked this problem up, and the nonsense given to fix this problem is impossible to follow as it must be old. What shall I do, just avoid using this browser? This has been my base browser for years. Perhaps it is time to make a change.

even though i have run several virus scans several times, mozilla firefox popup claims:

system is infected activate you antivirus to delete virus via bmok.check-ti-ver-108-a.com

can't turn off popup. then another popup claims norton payment denied.

advise please. thanks Debby

I am trying to submit a new Add-on, Firefox requires to add 2 factor authentication, and when I am trying to do that and enter code it tells me that is wrong even I am sure it is right. I tried many times with many auth app on my phone Hope to solve that to submit my Add-on
