Hi.

I've been having this problem for a few months now with Firefox displaying the message "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site".

It's intermittent and not related to a particular site.

Usually, if I click "Try Again", the page loads perfectly. Sometimes, a second attempt is required.

I'm having the problem with 2 of our desktop PCs (different profiles).

It got so frustrating I switched to Brave for a while. It doesn't have the same problem.

I'm just guessing here, but I've noticed that some sites (again, no particular sites, it varies) take 10s-15s to come up. Is Firefox giving up and reporting "Server not Found" while Brave keeps trying?

The computers are rebooted daily and I've tried cycling the power on our router.

No other responses to this problem have helped.

I'm looking at a screenshot which was submitted as part of a court filing that shows what looks like some sort of toolbar perhaps on a browser.

I'm trying to figure out just what it belongs do - what browser or such?

I've attached thepart of the screenshot showing the "toolbar."

Is this a part of an Android browser for non-PC devices - phone, tablet, etc.?

It looks like there's an address bar showing "jonpsalmonds.net" (defunct as of now because of horribly conducted court case)

I'm just guessing this is the standard top part of browser's window for a browser I've never seen before.

Any ideas?

Note - the PDF in which the screenshot was presented had a watermark - that's the faint lettering you see in the background of the image. Just ignore it.

Firefox has a very useful page called Protections Dashboard. However I have noticed that when I clear out Firefox's history (which I do periodically) it will also erase all the data at the Protections Dashboard. Is there a way to configure Firefox so that I can clear out the browser history and still retain the data at Protections Dashboard?

I'm not sure if this is a Firefox or Google Calendar issue.

Please see the attached screenshots, in order.

The issue is accessibility of the Settings icon in the top-right portion of the screen when the system text size is increased from the default.

Obviously, there's a workaround available. Thanks in advance.

So when I installed Firefox for iOS (to go with my Firefox desktop browser), it always requested desktop sites. At first I thought it was just a gimmick. All browsers have one. Chrome has the gimmick of sending your info to who knows, and Edge has the gimmick of being stuck on Windows 11 and having an ad blocker on mobile. But it got annoying and I don’t think it’s supposed to do this. PLEASE HELP!

The help on this is either dated or just flat wrong. The image does not show iPasOS 18.3’s multi-window support.

Would work with an update to an image for the look of the multiwindows support on recent versions of iPadOS **IF** you do not already have a second FireFox window open. If you do, splitting the screen and the clicking on the FireFox icon merely opens that second, existing, FireFox window

The only way that I can get a new window is to use an external keyboard to type Command N

I read the newspaper on 2 tablets and phone. All are Samsung. The phone is latest s25 and tablets S5e. All the apps are up to date along with the operating systems. Picking a story to read and scrolling through it I eventually go 'back' to main page front. On Firefox this doesn't happen. The button action takes 4-6 presses, then back to main page. This occurs on all 3 devices. I tried other news websites (ABC, CBS) to replicate problem, but *did not* have this issue. Not a big deal but I think you should know.

Hello. It's a known issue already, but i will share it once again.

When i switch to a different app and then come back to Firefox, the tabs always reload and any process or pending task is lost.

That's a huge problem because it's impossible to copy and paste codes from an authenticator, fill any text to a form or simply continue watching a paused video. The tab simply reload and you lose everything.

It's very annoying because it doesn't happen to any other browser. I'm a longterm user of Firefox for many years, but this is my only complain.

Dear developers, please do something to fix this issue.

Thank you !
