Hello,

I set Swiss cows as my default search engine in Firefox ios browser. And for some reason I always get an error message “404 page not found” at Swiss cows when I do a quick search from Firefox. If I want to search now, I have to go to Swisscows first, then type in my search. I can’t do it from a Firefox tab. It wasn’t always doing this. Any tips on how to fix this? Thank you

Kevin

https://swisscows.com/ I have several versions of Firefox and had no problem.


Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem,

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

While you are in Troubleshoot(Safe) mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
