Firefox Community Forum

This morning, Tuesday, 21-Jan-2025, I submitted a Firefox bug report.

After the latest version of Firefox (Jan 21, 2005 at 8:45:59 AM, version 134.0.2 (20250120135430)) was installed my bookmarks disappeared. I was unable to restore the latest bookmark file from the "Other Bookmarks, restore". I was able to select the file but it wouldn't installed.

I tried several possible solutions base on past experience. This issue happened once before. Nothing I did worked until I access your Online website page detailing how to verify the integrity of Firefox. The verify search displayed a "place.sqlite" file was corrupt.

I examined the Profile "ft4ltmzl.defalult-release" file scrolling down to sqlite . Yep. There was a corrupt sqlite file in the profile. Following the instructions in you website page on how to remove a corrupt sqlite file I remove the corrupt file(s) then restarted Firefox. Volia. My bookmarks were back again. Firefox re-established the database. All is well.

You did a great job detailing how to verify Firefox and how to remove a corrupt sqlite file(s). The instructions were easy to follow for this particular issue.

Thank you.

James.

I and others have talked about this with Mozilla. There is no way to turn off the "Sign in with Google" pop up prompt that occurs with almost every website. One has to close it manually. It really sucks! I love firefox, but have moved to Chrome to avoid this distasteful issue.

For the past few months, I've been getting this error and been searching for possible solutions. None of which have worked. I am also not using Kaspersky AV. With this, I'm asking if there's anything else I can do.

Here are the solutions I've tried: 1. Troubleshoot mode / disabling add ons 2. New profile 3. Clearing cache / cookies / dns 4. Changing "DNS over HTTPS" & proxy settings 5. Disabling firewall / AV / VPN 6. Chrome loads the site but I do not want to resort to this. Using developer mode browser does not work either for firefox.

There is a bug in Firefox Browser where it doesn't allow you to scroll up in the chat during the livestream and keep your place there to read a message. It auto scrolls down to the new messages everytime a new message appears in the chat.

Firefox is the ONLY browser that does this so it must be a bug. Chrome, Edge, Opera, Brave, etc none of these do this. It is especially problematic in livestreams with many viewers and an active chat, making it impossible to read a previous message if you want.

It happens on all platforms, twitch, kick, YouTube, Parti, Rumble, anything with a live chat

Firefox suddenly will not take me to my organization's (academic) Microsoft sign in page that connects me to DUO and then to the institution Sharepoint. When I use the same steps I've always used, Firefox just sits with the dots going across the screen. I've been using Firefox to connect exactly the same way for several years. Now it does not work. Safari will do it, but I don't like Safari as well.

I cleared cookies and cache in Firefox--did not fix it. I closed the browser and restarted the computer--did not fix it. I tried my other desktop--did not fix it. I downloaded Firefox again--did not fix it. I downloaded and reinstalled DUO with help from my institution's IT department--did not fix it.

Incidentally, I can log in to my personal Microsoft account using Firefox. I just cannot log into my institutional Microsoft account. My institution's IT could not see any reason why this would be the case on their end, so I'm wondering if there is something I've done to block Firefox from connecting with my organization's Microsoft.

I don't like Safari as well but I may have to stop using Firefox because I need to be connected to my institution's email, calendar, library, course platform, etc. etc. almost continuously all day.

I am getting the following message in settings of Firefox: "Your browser is being managed by your organisation."

These are the problematic extions: {"{02274e0c-d135-45f0-8a9c-32b35110e10d}":{"install_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/pkcs11-module-loader/latest.xpi","installation_mode":"normal_installed"},"{443830f0-1fff-4f9a-aa1e-444bafbc7319}":{"installation_mode":"normal_installed","install_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/token-signing2/latest.xpi"}}

I have followed the below steps and thus removed the add-on but yet I am not able to get message "Your browser is being managed by your organisation."

Is there a fix to the issue?

Uninstall manually

If you can't remove an extension from Firefox using the other methods described above, you can manually remove it. First navigate to the folder where extensions are installed:

   Open your profile folder:
       From the Help menu, select More Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.
       Under the Application Basics section next to Profile Folder, click Show in Finder. A window will open that contains your profile folder. 
   Note: If you are unable to open or use Firefox, follow the instructions in Finding your profile without opening Firefox.

   Open the extensions folder inside your profile folder. Inside the extensions folder there are folders or XPI files for each extension and theme that you have installed.
   To determine which folder or XPI file corresponds to the extension you want to uninstall, return to Firefox and the Troubleshooting Information tab.
   In the Extensions section, find the extension you want to remove and note the string in the ID column.
   Click the Firefox menu at the top of the screen and select Quit Firefox.
   Delete the folder or XPI file that corresponds to the extension ID you noted above.

Several websites show nothing but a white screen. I have tried everything suggested in other posts about this issue (Clearing history & cookies. Starting in safe mode. Disabling addons, themes, and extentions. Disabling hardware acceleration. Updating video card drivers. Checking the url bars "tracker" icon. Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox.) and still I get a white screen when visiting certain sites. I really don't want to switch to another browser but I'm at a complete loss and have no idea why I have this issue.

This is new mint 22.1 installation. I have firefox running properly on another machine running mint 21. This machine was working correctly with firefox logging in when it was mint21 (firefox synchronised settings on both machines )

I am unable to sign in to mozilla firefox with the top right hamburger menu. When I enter my email address and password it tells me to enter the six digit security code sent to my email but those emails never arrive.

I am not using two factor authentication or pass keys or mobile phone numbers ( I dont understand any of those ).
