Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to divar.ir because this website requires a secure connection.

I am experiencing the problem that my bookmark backup is not restored. I need to restore everything before Dec 24, 2024. If you can help me, this has never happened to me before. Thank you.

Dear Jim,

I needed to go to sleep at 3am last night to rise for a 12 noon Christmas day dinner. So I am back now.

I have not been able to drag a picture into the text of an email message.

I mark the point of insert with the cursor, go to Insert menu, select the attach picture, and it ends up at the top of the email outside my message. When I try to drag the picture into the text area, a mat covers the text area instructing to insert it here. When I release it on the hotspot, the matted area goes blank and I receive a menu message "The following files couldn't be attached: "filename.jpg". Please try again later."

I seem to be doing everything correctly. I was able to do this some time in the past.

I am wondering if the problem has to do with a memory cache problem. Do I have too many 2000 blocked emails. Maybe a security problem not allowing the attachment?

Firefox and dwm.exe load the CPU up to 40W when the computer is idle in windows 11 24H2. If it is on and the computer is locked, the monitor goes off and dwm.exe loads the CPU. Once you unlock the computer again, the leak stops. If anyone knows how to pass this information to the developers, please pass it on.

If you have a 24H2 you can check this, if you have a battery powered laptop, its battery will drain when the laptop is idle.

I like firefox...used it two to three times a week for over ten years...Now when I click on the icon on my menu, I am greeted by the ansurb: "That doesn't look right." When I try to download Firefox, it will not down load...why are you idiots doing this to your own product?

I really do not like the new menu / toolbar in firefox nightly. I guess I hadn't really noticed the changes until now. But it takes up half the page of my browser. Who thought this was a good idea? - to put it smack dab in the middle of the page?! Not me, that is for sure! Ok. So can we see a normal toolbar/ menu bar/ and optional toolbar at the top of the page, please? I like things the way they were. With various options to add buttons and pages or things that we need?? My toolbars were stacked appropriately in roles, with everything I needed on them. And they were always in the same place. Not moving around like toys on the floor. Please, please bring back the old toolbars for this old cranky punk chick. Thanks!! Love Firefox, stop messing with it. 💗💗💗😸😸

I have both German and Dutch dictionaries downloaded, but firefox' spelling check just... doesn't see the dictionaries at all. (The dictionaries tab eventually links to the second screen, when you can see the pack is installed.) I can't seem to find anywhere else it might need to be activated in first, my computer's default language has also been either dutch or german so that shouldn't have any effect. It's not a restart firefox issue either - it has persisted for a while, i just keep forgetting lol.

I am a heavy Firefox user, and have been using it (and its predecessor) since Netscape. In the last year, the size of my Firefox profile has more than doubled, from 500MB to 1.3GB. What's the probable cause(s), and what can I do about it?

How can i download a pdf of my passwords. I think i need to set up a lock screen first. Please give precise instructions how to accomplish both these tasks. Im having great difficulty signing in and out of sites so until i figure out how and why things have changed i need a list of passwords. My device is currently unlocked. I have trouble finding my way back to my questions here. Why doesnt firefox have a history function? Sometimes it does but its not recent. I put all these questions together because its too difficult finding my way back to every individual question. I have a hundred questions about firefox so many that its daunting to consider as it would take me days to do and its time i dont have. Somehow my firefox account has gotten too confusing and complex

I use one website with a userid and password. Because of the password encryption on that site, Firefox thinks the password changes every time I use it and asks me to either 'Update Password' or 'Don't Update'. If I agree to update it changes the saved password to an encrypted value and the login fails next time I go to the site. I do want to keep the password saved for the site. But I don't want this prompt every time, can I stop it just for this site?

Many Thanks

Why am I getting this message quite often for the last few weeks? When I am following a link to a new website I get this message much more than I ever did in the past.

I have noticed for a long time the problem of pinned tabs disappearing in the browser. This happens when I first close the window with pinned tabs, and then it doesn't matter whether they are pinned or new. My pinned tabs disappear. Restoring closed tabs doesn't make sense, because they haven't been closed, so there's nothing to restore. The only shortcut that works 50% is Ctrl + Shift + N, which doesn't always work and ends up wasting time and opening new tabs and re-pinning them.
