I have been playing a word game on Gamepoint.com...always worked. 3 days ago when the gameboard comes up it is messed up. I jumped onto microsoft edge and it works... firefox is having issues letting this game load properly...how do i fix?

Sometimes it restarts and sometimes it doesn't. I have tried all the gizmos like deleting my cache and things but to no avail. It used to work alright. Please help!

How does Firefox determine where the Kerberos keytab is located?

The default location for Kerberos keytabs on a Linux box is within /tmp. /tmp is very temporary these days and is wiped on reboot and it looks like on the various power save/restore.

So, I decided to move the keytabs to a static location to allow them to work according to the usual schedules and timeouts, instead of being wiped out on a whim. I settled on /var/lib/krb5tabs/krb5cc_%u I configured that within /etc/krb5.conf

I use pam_winbind from Samba to do the Kerberos login and the keytab is filled in and the environment var KRB5CCNAME is set correctly.

Before the change of the location of the keytab from the defaults, everything works fine apart from after a resume and creds need re entering (which is the pain I am trying to avoid).

After the change, Evolution is still able to authenticate via Kerberos but Firefox is not. So, does FF just assume defaults or actually follow KRB5CCNAME - which seems to be the standard for Kerberos?

Hello

When attempting to pay for online purchases the new firefox upgrade (Mac 133.0.3) will not redirect from the merchant to the payment site. Yesterday, before the upgrade, was no problem making credit card purchases online; now, nothing. Please advise on how to set up new firefox version to allow redirect to payment websites from merchant sites.

Thank you.

My Firefox Version is up to date & I am using a 2019 iMac.

Recently tried to save a bookmark. When I clicked on Bookmarks, Bookmark Current Tab, a window appears, as usual, which allows you to save a new bookmark to a specific location (folder in My Bookmarks). I could not find the folder I wanted even though it was listed under the currently open window in My Bookmarks. In addition, I could not save the new bookmark to appear in My Bookmarks.

Note: most of the Bookmarks shown in the location selection window did match the My Bookmarks list, but not all of them

Have never had this issue. Any suggested fixes?

/edit bump: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to Firefox section as you have macOS.

When I open Firefox it opens a maximized window with tabs, then it opens a minimized with a single tab, then it reopens a maximized window with all session tabs. Each window displays in succession, one window at a time.

I'm on desktop using Windows 11.

I just read a post saying this behavior was caused by the resist fingerprinting feature. Can someone explain how that causes the repeated opening of browser window 3 times. Is there a way to retain the anti-fingerprinting behavior w/o the multiple window opening behavior?

I have Firefox on two Windows computers and was wondering what is the proper way to sync them.

One computer is not used often and I want to sync Firefox on it it with the Firefox on the computer I use daily so I want the Firefox that does not have the updated files updated using the Firefox data files on the computer I use daily and not the other way around. So what is the correct procedure to do this other than to make sure the Firefox program version is updated on the computer that is not used often?

Thanks

Hi, I have a virtual synth called Omnisphere. I open Firefox and go to YouTube, and I'll select a video to play. (I typically do this so I can use the Omnisphere synth to play along to for practicing my keyboard skills. YouTube will play just fine, but when I open Omnisphere, then try to play the YouTube video simultaneously, YouTube will just hang and won't play. I close Omnisphere and YouTube will play fine again. I know you'll think this is an issue with my virutal synth Omnisphere, but the strange thing is, that that same company makes another virtual synth called Keyscape, and when I try playing Keyscape and YouTube together, it works just fine. To me, this seems to be some kind of sharing issue, and likely a sharing setting of some kind. The audio settings in both Omnisphere and Keyscape are identical, so why would one work, but not the other?. I couldn't find any kind of virtual device sharing settings in Firefox or YouTube. The company that makes these virtual instruments has told me that it works fine with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, that's why I'm leaning towards the browser being the issue. Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks very much, I appreciate it.

I have a problem using a website called TherapyNotes with the Firefox browser, even though this was not an issue until recently. It seems even though camera permissions are enabled, Firefox is unable to connect to my camera for my telehealth sessions. The light indicating my camera is in use comes on for a second, then immediately turns off. I am also unable to even start a session and coast with voice only. The window to start my session never pops up. I have put in a ticket and been in contact with TherapyNotes going back and forth for the past couple of weeks. Their tech support insists it is an issue with Firefox since I can utilize their site completely on other browsers. I much prefer to use Firefox for the security, so I'm hoping there's something you can tell me to do to make it work.
