Firefox Community Forum

To whom it may concern, My firefox on a Mac running 14.7.1 crashes on every site that I try to access. It goes to the below image that states "gah, etc". I have sent in mutliple crash reports and followed the troubleshooting on the forums. Steps followed so far -Restarted Firefox -Restarted Mac - Cleared Cache and temporary files -Cleared startup cache -disabled extensions -refreshed firefox -upgraded Mac OS

My next option seems to be to uninstall the programs and reinstall it, but I am worried about losing all saved information including passwords, bookmarks, etc. I cannot even access mozilla's site nor the ability to turn sync on.

Any thoughts would be welcome. Thank you, Adam

Youtube videos and Twitch live streams are freezing and whenever I refresh the page the video/live stream is just black. The audio still continues to play and I have no idea what is causing it. I only have 3 extensions installed (Ublock Origin, Youtube Sponsor Block, and Truffle) and have even tried removing them to no success. The only way to fix it has been to close and reopen Firefox, but it usually doesn't fix it for long. Its even started crashing any games I've been playing when I close Firefox. I'll try to get a video to show the issue.

Auto fill for credit cards has not worked for several months now. The option is checked in the privacy and security tab. When try to pay a list of my cards comes up but when I select one if doesn't auto fill. How can I fix that?

I noticed after a forced Microsoft Windows 10 update, AND whilst using CC Cleaner to clean out the cache, I was no longer prompted to close Firefox. I never opened Microsoft Edge and was not asked to close it to complete the CC Cleaner process. I don't want Mircosoft Edge and I especially don't like the feeling that Firefox must use Edge to operate. What can I do to clear this up.

I get PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR when trying to load certain websites. I don't use any proxy or VPN, I tried disabling DoH. Also sometimes i get 403 forbidden cloudflare.

Hi!

I've been a Firefox user ever since I've had an internet connection (probably around 2008). Whenever I would do a clean Windows installation every 1 or 2 years, I remember I would have my passwords, history, and extensions synced. Today I performed a clean reinstall again after maybe 2 years and I don't have any of my old history, passwords, extensions.

I'm a bit desperate, I have really important stuff saved over the years. I use Tree Style Tabs and I've customized my browser client to fit my needs and it was perfect, but I seem to have lost everything and I don't know what happened. It didn't even cross my mind something like this would happen.

Is there anything I can do? I have old emails from 2018 and 2021 from Firefox Accounts which show I used the same email.

Today when I tried to log-in into Firefox Accounts from inside the browser (button at the top right corner) it seemed that none of my passwords worked, so I clicked the "Forgot email" password and set-up a better one, but once logged in there was no sync with the old data I had. Then I thought maybe I had the wrong account so I logged in with my Google/Gmail account but there was nothing there as well.

Is there something I can do? I really need my old history, passwords, extensions, etc. Especially now as I'm graduating from University and I have important events coming up.

And no, I don't have any local profiles any more since I did a full, clean reinstall on my primary SSD. But I remember I've never used local profiles, everything would sync up again once I logged in. Maybe forgetting and resetting my password logged out my previous session and I lost it forever?

I hope you can help me sort this out.

Thank you for your time!

When previewing an image that was uploaded to a Google Calendar Event, I get an error "Couldn't preview file. There was a problem displaying this image." I've spoken to Google support and they suggested I reach out as when I try in Chrome, it works. Firefox is my preferred browser so I would love if I didn't have to switch to Chrome.

Troubleshooting Done: - Verified Firefox is up to date (130.0 64 bit) - Cleared cache and cookies, closed browser, reopened - Tried in 'Troubleshoot Mode' - Ad Blocker turned off - Uploaded test .png and .jpeg to see if it was a file extension issue - Uploaded smaller versions of images to see if it was a size issue - No issues when doing same steps in Chrome browser

Hi,

I've been wanting to switch from Chrome to Firefox for the longest time, but I can't do it since surround audio doesn't seem to be supported natively in Firefox. I'm using a Logitech G733, with "Surround Audio" activated in GHub, and on Chromium based browsers, it works, I hear it when watching Youtube videos, Twitch streams..., but on Firefox, it defaults to stereo audio. I haven't been able to find any settings related to audio in Firefox, nor in the concerned websites. Is it a known issue ?

Tengo 2 perfiles para cuentas de correo distintas. He configurado Firefox para que al reiniciar se abran las últimas pestañas abiertas, sin embargo esto no funciona al abrir cada perfil. Alguna solución ?

Often I can't access content indicated by a link in an article or email. I tried turning off the Firefox firewall, but it made no difference. Now I am unable to turn the firewall back on.

Hey, I just recently started using Firefox, and I've started to notice some odd behavior. When watching videos and reels on Facebook (Desktop version), videos will flip-flop between normal and really bright and washed-out. I'm currently on Firefox 130.0 on Windows 11, and I always have HDR on. The imagery is silly, but these two screenshots (using win-shift-s) are from the same video only seconds apart, and this happens on almost all of them. Not yet tested to see if it also happens on Youtube or Twitter videos.

I have changed my settings in Firefox to have Firefox the default when computer opens but it still opens with MSN which I don't want. Every time I go into settings even after re-boot it still shows to start with MSN . I change it again and same thing over and over.

thanks for any help and I have a feeling I have to delete firefox and re-install but worried all my links and bookmarks ect will go away.

Hello,

I have done some looking into this issue, what I have found is it is a cookies and cache issue. However I have added youtube.com to the exceptions list for each cookies setting mentioned but yet every time I load youtube on a fresh mozilla instance it makes me send a verification to youtube on my phone, then loads a oops sorry we cant load this page with a youtube search bar on it. I can't figure out how to keep my sign in on youtube, and having to send a verification link to my cellphone every single time is getting tiresome. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Grim.

If I want to edit a URL or type one in or just use the address bar as a search bar, the field converts to a light blue highlight as soon as I click on it. I am no longer able to see what I am typing or to check what is there. No type shows up at all, even if I highlight it, though I know it is there.

The first screenshot shows what I see as soon as I click on that field. Before clicking, I will see the URL.

The second screenshot shows what happens when I try this on a new page without a URL already in the bar. After a few characters, what I'm typing appears in a little popup right below the address bar. I assume this is normal. But if I want to see or revise a URL, I am not able to see it in order to do so.

I can’t figure out how to fix this! Any ideas?

About a month ago, firefox stopped remembering a download location, it's only on one website though. I can download from anywhere but there and it remembers the location but it won't from that site and that's where I download from the most.

I may have inadvertently changed some Firefox security setting, but don't know which one. Or, as likely, due to a recent Firefox update. I try to keep up-to-date.

Here is the link and error log from Firefox (if I copy just the link to Safari, it works fine): The resource at “https://dmt.fidelity.com/privacy/v1/b/b.rnc?n=15&c=65&i=55ti80&p=prod&s=2348&d=8ER7InZlcnNpb24iOiIxLjAuMCIsImdhdGV3YXkiOiIyLjMuNjgyIiwiY2xpZW50SWQiOjY1LCJwdWJsaXNoUGF0aCI6InByb2QiLCJpbnN0YW5jZSUAYCI1NXRpOE0A8ApwYWNrZXQiOjcsIm1vZGUiOiJlbmZvcmNlVQDwDG9va2llcyI6eyJTdHJpY3RseSBOZWNlc3Nhcn8AsDEiLCJQZXJmb3JtWQAAowDTIiwiRnVuY3Rpb25hbBEA8kZUYXJnZXRpbmcgYW5kIEFkdmVydGlzaW5nIjoiMCJ9LCJlbnZpcm9ubWVudCI6IkFsbG93ZWQgRG9tYWluIiwicmVxdWVzdHMiOlt7ImRlc3RpbmF0EwHwAmh0dHBzOi8vcGR4MS5xdWFspwCUcy5jb20vV1JREADwJlNpdGVJbnRlcmNlcHQvR3JhcGhpYy5waHA_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_gw8RBlsB8gMiZW6uBQMlBjc3NDSAAg8RBkIP-AMKDwIBXC4zOYIDCQIBDxEGQ8A0NzE4OTQ2NjB9XX0” was blocked by OpaqueResponseBlocking.
