LINUX. see subject, please. i started on this laptop w/ mint. 5 or 6 years ago. then downloaded peppermint 1 and has been working great, but the browser does not update automatically like is said. Then, my Linux guy up and passed away. I know no one in town that uses it. I'M ON LINUX. any help appreciated. have gotten some replies with folk trying to help, but it just wants to download/install whole program. my bank wants me to upgrade to at least 115. can't access accts. Chase are useless. They don't know what Linux is. Perhaps someone here can point me in right direction? Regards. God bless.

My organization has been using Firefox ESR for many years. I am trying to upgrade from ESR 115.12 to ESR 128.1 The upgrade is hanging at the very end of the install. Procmon shows firefox.exe being launched in the background and hanging. When I manually run firefox.exe, it says "Unable to read configuration file". If I edit "autoconfig.js", and comment out the "general.config.filename", then everything works.

We still use the general.config.filename and have not fully transitioned to the newer policies.json configuration (we have settings in both).

Was a change made in ESR 128 that broke (or stopped supporting) the older format ?

thanks, -stephen

Hi, Hopefully someone can help. This started a couple of days ago. I'm actually trying to log in to my own account on Flickr. If I just input Flickr.com, the main front page loads, if I then go to log in, I get: "429 Too Many Requests You have sent too many requests in a given amount of time" on the screen. I've only hit enter once. As far as I can see this is the only site that does this BUT Youtube sometimes plays up, so maybe something is happening in the back ground with that. Might be totally unconnected.

I've tried using Opera (my main back up) and that loads my account just fine. I've tried turning off the extensions Adblock, No Script etc and the 429 error still pops up everytime I go to log in..

Any ideas? Anyone?

Thanks in advance. Graham

Well until a week ago I had no problems with Mozilla and apparently it got to a point where I deleted Mozilla and went to the Mozilla site downloaded the 64 version and couple of things have changed not sure why but they have and I'm not sure what to do ... The main thing is moving files into sites like We Transfer and Mega ... It just bounces off ... I took these sharing sites to like Edge and Opera not a problem.... Mozilla won't work.

Hi folks

Until about two or three days ago the www.bt.com website opened as usual, with first of all its cookie panel taking over the screen asking whether to accept cookies or manage cookies, and after handling that the site was perfectly usable.

As of two or three days now the cookie panel does not come up NOT AT ALL [but see also the last part of this message], and the screen is lightly-greyed-out. The screen scrolls but nothing at all is clickable.

However, in Chrome and Edge the site opens and works as expected.

The site also opens on the iPhone using both Safari and Firefox and works as expected.

It is just FF on my W10x64 Desktop where I have the unclickable lightly-greyed-out screen problem.

Perhaps something has chaged in FF, so I went into Settings-Privacy & Security- and then did the following:-

• Went to Site Data then "Manage Exceptions then I specifically typed in and Allowed the www.bt.com website

• Then went to Permissions and Block pop-up windows and in Exceptions I typed in and Allowed the www.bt.com website

• Then cleared FF cache

• Then reloaded FF

After all of this - no change; the www.bt.com screen is still in a lightly-greyed-out and unclickble, but still scrolls, however, after taking the above bulleted steps, the cookie panel now momentairily only flickers onto the screen and then disappears, and, sadly, the screen remains lightly-greyed-out and unusable.

Am I missing some sort of blocker for this website?

All other websites work on the Desktop PCs FF as expected. It is just this www.bt.com website that is the issue.

I have spent 30 mins with a BT Support Agent on the phone and we both agree that as Chrome, Edge and Safari are all fine it must be an issue with the Desktop version of FF.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

I recently updated to 129.01 (64bit). Now Firefox keeps crashing, especially when I am trying to fill out an online form. Does anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions on how to resolve?

I have used Fire Fox for years. Love it. recently I can no longer use because when you try to use metamask and connect hardware wallet (trezor) it does nothing. Metamask tech support says its on you guys. Please help I don't like using crome (using Mac Sonoma 14.6.1 and Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7) both do the same thing)

Open Fire Fox Click on Metamask extention Enter password Select "Connect a hardware wallet" Select "Trezor" Select "Continue" Nothing happens --dead

I keep getting a virus alert when in Firefox. I have scanned with every known scanner and Mcafee, with nothing found. BUT it keeps popping up as an alert. I get no alerts when in Microsoft explorer. HELP!!!

I cannot sign in to the New York Times today; on their main page it will not allow me to sign in to my account. I have called them, and apparently it is Firefox that is the problem. I can connect to any and all other sites. I can connect and sign in to the NYTimes from my iPad as well, so I believe it is the version on my Windows 11 laptop that is the problem. I've cleared all cookies and history, restarted my computer, re-booted my modem even, and closed my VPN, all to no avail. I have version 129.0.2, and it is up to date. It was working yesterday just fine. Is there another update coming to correct this?

There was a 1-3 second power failure today that crashed my desktop computer but the UPS maintained power to the fiber modem and mesh router, so my internet connection to the house was maintained. I restarted the desktop and launched Firefox. It proceeded to open all the tabs which had been open which is good. BUT it was very troubling that my log-in to my Investment Brokerage account was maintained and it did not request a Log-in Account Name and Password. A 2nd web account also maintained its log-in; so this is not specific to my brokerage. I have Firefox set up to NEVER save passwords; I use a separate Password Manager set up NOT to autofill account names and passwords.

Was this because the the UPS maintained the internet connection (for the 1-2 minute restart) while Firefox crashed and did not EXIT? Is there any setting I can make to prevent this from happening?

on PC A, firefox just lost all open tabs (even pinned ones), history (for this device only thank gods), open windows.

I installed a windows yesterday on a different PC (lets call it B), and logged in with the same microsoft account PC A uses. Then installed firefox and logged in to sync (on PC B).

Did that somehow overwrite the profile? Even though it was a different PC?

Beginning with a FF update about 6 months ago, I cannot print a web page to a PDF. I CAN print to PDF on other browsers (i.e., 'Chrome, MS Edge, etc.).

If a FF setting, what am I missing? I have tried "everything"!!

I am using the latest version of FF

Firefox Version 129.0.1 64 bit Windows 11. When I am in a New Tab, and I do a search (Google is my search engine) the results do not display. I type in search words, I hit Enter, and the screen does a very quick blip, and then nothing. This is very frustrating. I have wasted too much time trying to figure it out. It does not do it all the time, but most of the time. This started with the latest Firefox update. Is this a Settings issue?

For the last 2 weeks I started having problems with Firefox working consistently. Sometimes only tabs crash, sometimes Firefox crashes. It is not tied to any actions, a tab can crash even if you don't perform any actions in the browser. I have tried clean install on Fedora and Vanilla OS, native and Flatpak packages. The result is always the same - tabs or Firefox crashes every few minutes.
