Firefox Tekoha Aty

Firefox on my 2018 MacBook Pro started having issues downloading all file types after I disconnected Dropbox sync and backup. Each time I try to download a file, a failed message is displayed below the file name and type. The browser was using the downloads folder that was synced with Dropbox. After disconnecting Dropbox, I tried changing the downloads location, but the "Choose" button does not display a window. The result is the same whether the Always ask you where to save files is checked or not.

I have gone through the following steps trying to resolve this issue with no success.

1. I have reset/cleared any configuration setting found using about:config and browser.download.
2. I have launched Firefox in troubleshoot mode and tested downloads with no resolution.
3. I have uninstalled Firefox and installed a fresh copy from mozilla.org with no resolution.
4. I have set the downloads folder in Safari, but this did not provide a resolution. Downloads work as expected in Brave and Safari. The current downloads location is the Downloads directory on my iCloud Drive.

The second screenshot with the error attached in still referencing the Dropbox-connected Downloads folder. No other browsers are using this folder and the Dropbox app has been completely removed from my laptop.

I use Firefox for web development and need to be able to download various files throughout the day, so this has become very frustrating.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Starting this morning, I am constantly receiving pop ups supposedly from Mozilla regarding viruses. It says "click here to fix the error" Are these legit?

I have run my anti-virus and malware and they show nothing. I also have pop ups blocked.

As the subject says, I'm trying to get Discord links to open in the Discord desktop app instead of a Firefox tab. The 'Applications' section of my Firefox settings that has the settings to handle 'mailto' and 'magnet' links in external apps doesn't have any setting for Discord links for me to change, and I can't figure out how to add one.

After an update notification, i downloaded and updated my firefox to version 132.0.1. after the update, i continually get the notification to update. when i try to perform the update again,i get a message that reads "failed to check for updates". please help this notification is very annoying...

I want to use Firefox on Debian 12, I already use it on Windows 10, but the browser don't redirect from a web page to an application. For example for the authentification: I click to login with google, the app send this to firefox but after that it don't remind to the app.

When I go to my wishlist or a friends wishlist on the Amazon site using Firefox I get an error message Amazon has encountered an error. Please try again shortly. under the item. But in Microsoft Edge or Chrome the item is selected without a problem. I am using firefox 133.0 64 bit.

I would like to take a screenshot of my expanded emails on protonmail.com - but it is not working when when I click "full page" option. Is this possible? I don't want to take screenshots manually by scrolling down the window...

Hi, I just switched from windows 10 to Windows 11. On windows 10 once you position the picture in picture once it appears in that position every time time you start up a new picture in picture. In Windows 11 the picture in picture doggedly appears in the same position necessitating moving it to your preferred position every time.

I am running Windows 11 with an RTX4080 super on two 4K screens set to Nvidia surround mode with the latest driver. The picture in picture always positions about 20 pixels into the left (main) screen. I then move it to the 10,10 position on the right screen. I expect the next time I start a picture in picture that it will appear at the 10,10 position on the right screen. Instead it appears in the old position on the left screen, forcing me to move it every time.

The current version of Firefox remembers the size of the picture in picture when I resize it. But is does not remember the x,y position on the picture in picture once it is resized over a certain size.

Is there a setting in about that sets the position of the picture in picture?

Having updated to latest browser version I am continually getting this page

https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/133.0/whatsnew/?oldversion=132.0

It is not in my startup URL's I use the default.

I have cleared all browser cache and data with no effect.

Hi, have been a Firefox devotee for years. Currently have a problem accessing some sites including https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/login which I access via another email address. The problem is that when i click login nothing happens - there is no pop up or similar - the attached image results, suggesting a reCaptcha failure. But I don't see anything.

When using Chrome, I do not get the same challenge, so clearly to me, a setting in Firefox.

Appreciate any help on offer,

thanks

I'm on Developer Edition of Firefox. In previous versions of Firefox (Probably 132), I could share the window just fine, but since an update to either Teams or Firefox, it just results in a blank screen for viewers.

I start firefox with following policies.json

{

   "policies": {
       "AppAutoUpdate": false,
       "BackgroundAppUpdate": false,
       "DisableAppUpdate": true,
       "DisableFeedbackCommands": true,
       "DisableFirefoxAccounts": true,
       "DisableFirefoxStudies": true,
       "DisablePocket": true,
       "DisableSystemAddonUpdate": true,
       "DisableTelemetry": true,
       "ExtensionUpdate": false
   }

}

But uncontrolled connections to the following addresses continue anyway:

• firefox.settings.services.mozilla.com
• aus5.mozilla.org

I may have missed something and you can tell me how I can control these connections inclusive. Because all other connections can be controlled by configs and policies. But not these and it raises big questions. It seems to me that the browser should allow to configure any network requests that aren't related to the user web browsing itself. If some connections cannot be controlled in any way then I can't call it anything other than either a bug or an attempt to monitor users as do in Google Chrome.

Having a problem with Firefox the last few weeks. I'm on 64-bit version 133. When I go to a web site I get the this message:

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at www.mozilla.org. If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

If I reload the page from the 'Try Again' button or the reload icon in the top menu bar it will start to display. I usually have to reload multiple times for the page to start to load. Sometimes the page loads completely the first time, Sometimes it only loads partially (i.e. only text) or only part of the page loads correctly. I reload a few more times and the page finally loads completely. This makes it very difficult to browse almost any web page. I have Firefox on 3 computers (Windows 7 & 10) and have this problem on all three. I've visited web pages in Edge without problems. Any ideas? Thanks

Running Firefox 133.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 desktop

Periodically, Firefox will freeze and send the message "Firefox must be restarted to continue". After restarting, Firefox takes a long time to recover. This morning, it took nearly 5 minutes to recover.
