Most of the extensions and applications do not work (VPN...), although they also function on other browsers. Moreover, I see that other FireFox users use them, but for me they don’t even respond to opening. And I don't know who to turn to. My language is Russian. I do translation in Google. I apologize for bad English. But I will be grateful if someday I receive an answer. Example vpn-1click with an empty square. The other did not respond to pressing the power button. The third one simply had a black background. I can’t understand what’s happening. And I need help.

I am unable to replace Microsoft Edge with Firefox as default browser in windows 10. Found solutions do not work. Microsoft Edge is locked in & cannot be moved or deleted. Firefox browser opens but most searches are by Edge. After much effort I finally got Firefox listed as a default app but again must searches are by Edge.

Hi Folks,

nightmare scenario: backed up entire Ubuntu 22.04 system (but failed to copy Thunderbird profile separately): upgraded Ubuntu to 24.04; upgrade failed because Thunderbird Snap upgrade failed. Apparently this is very common, and many other people have had similar problems.

So now I'm working in Recovery mode, root prompt command line.

There is still a /home/username/.thunderbird/profile.default directory. It contains lots of files and directories, including a 5Mb Mail directory. So it looks as though my original mail data still exists. Fingers crossed, prayers etc.

And here's the question: is the directory structure under the new Snap profile the same as the old Thunderbird structure? In other words, can I copy the existing profile, scrap Thunderbird, finish the Ubuntu upgrade, and copy the files back under the new Snap profile?

Thank you for reading this far, and I hope someone can help...

Cheers

John M.

Due to a technical issue, I've deleted Firefox and re-downloaded it. However, the SHA hash doesn't match. shasum -a 256 [path]/Firefox 134.0.2.dmg shows a hash of:

c87eade89ddf5d1996766840809b5d415d91ecb696326b4f1f92210200978d21

but that hash doesn't show anywhere on https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/134.0.2/SHA256SUMS

mac/en-US/Firefox 134.0.2.dmg shows a SHA sum of:

7832a8d1e1a13322dec1b52d32e1e64d2b6254de8348575f2d22af4975d56a85

which is completely different.

I re-downloaded it, this time from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/desktop-release/osx/en-US/, and this time the SHA sum is:

47e1c3b84e79d331842ccf994be56cd423126eaca6acfd1664d668cf48f98de0

which is yet different, and is also not found on https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/134.0.2/SHA256SUMS

What's going on? Why can't I get a matching SHA sum?

I can't seem to update to the latest version of Firefox.

Steps on macOS 15.2: 1. In previous version of Firefox, get dialog to update to current version of Firefox 2. Click Restart to update Firefox. 3. Enter admin user name and password to allow Firefox to install a helper 4. Got a request to let Firefox access my devices. My devices are not Firefox's business, so I replied Don't allow. Note: 3 and 4 may have been swapped.

Expected result: Get a dialog that Mozilla corp has installed something; Firefox relaunches with the new version

Actual result: Get a dialog that Mozilla corp has installed something

Attempted workaround:

5. Click Firefox icon in the dock

Expected result: Firefox launches

Actual result: Get dialog asking me to enter admin user name and password to allow Firefox to install a helper.

6. I do so.

Expected result: Get a dialog that Mozilla corp has installed something; Firefox relaunches with the new version

Actual result: Get a dialog that Mozilla corp has installed something

Attempted workaround:

7. Click Firefox icon in the dock

And I get a strange feeling of deja vu as the process repeats and I am unable to launch Firefox.

If I look at the macOS console and filter on Mozilla, I notice these two messages from org.mozilla.updater:

1. Server doesn't exist or doesn't provide correct selectors.
2. Failed to connect to update server after several retries.

I have no idea how to proceeed.

I am trying to watch channel 4 but I am told I have to unblock the ad blocker. As far as I know I have never installed an ad blocker - I would not know at all how to do this - I am not very computer knowledgeable....

i have tried to unblock but get nowhere.

Can you help?

I used the camera on my iPhone 8 to download the newest Firefox for my phone, was sent to the app store, where I thought I "got" Firefox, but my browser Safari or Firefox--I can't tell which browser I use-- on my phone doesn't work anymore, what happened? Thank you.

I am running Windows 11 and the latest version of Firefox. Firefox was working perfectly yesterday, but today when I tried to open it, I got the message "This app can't run on your PC". What could be the problem and how do I fix it?

Thanks,

David
