Firefox Support Forum

Why is Firefox opening new tabs for content I have not clicked or even moused over? This just started a few days ago. It is mostly adds, but sometimes news articles I have not selected.

I am using Firefox 109 on my MacBook Pro (M1 chip), and after I upgraded to version 109, the application menu stopped working. When I click on the pancake icon in the upper right corner of the screen, the drop down menu becomes visible, but none of the items on the list are responsive. Fortunately, I can access passwords and the like by going to preferences under the Firefox menu on the left of the screen, but it's less convenient. Can I fix this on my own, or do I need to wait for the next upgrade?

I do my Firefox updates manually. I am currently using version 108.0.2. When I click on "about", it says I should "Update to Partner Removal". It usually tells me to update to the next version that is available. What is Partner Removal? Is it a legitimate update? I can't find anything on the website regarding this. Why does it not tell me to update to version 109?

Thank you for your help.

As mentioned Firefox, unlike Chrome, does not ask me where I want to download a file on my computer. I have it checked to "Always ask me where to download the file" and yet it still does not. Additionally when downloading PDFs it opens another tab as a preview for the document in question that I have just opened, but I do not want it to it is quite annoying. Thank you for your help.

I am suddenly unable to load Firefox on my desktop.. When I double click the icon, I see the circle spin for about 2 seconds, then nothing happens. I've unnstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but that didn't help. I can access it on my laptop, so it seems smth has gone wrong on my main computer. Any ideas?

Hello everyone! I was wondering if it is possible to have both Firefox and Firefox Developer Edition installed on the same computer and maybe even run side by side. FYI I already have the Normal version of Firefox installed.

My issue is that whenever I do a fresh opening of the Firefox app on my 14" MacBook Pro, it immediately opens the App Store in the Twilio Authy app. Can anyone explain why this is occurring? Can someone tell me how to eliminate this problem and has it happened to anyone else?

Source code (?) showing instead of icon on some websites to varying degrees. I've tried troubleshooting mode and it made no difference. This has been going on for a few months or longer.

Recently, Google Voice is not working properly on version 109 of Firefox. It is fine in Chrome. When I make a call, it will connect to the recipient of the call but nothing can be heard on my end. Also the red hang up button does not function, when clicked, it will dim but does not hang up. The only way to end the call is to close the tab and click yes to "leave the page". I have tried disabling all add-ons with no success. Not 100% sure if it started with version 109 but the timing seems about right.

I can access walgreens.com just fine on other browser programs, just not with firefox on my Dell latitude. Safari, Edge, Brave all work fine. on firefox, i get this message: You don't have permission to access "http://www.walgreens.com/login.jsp?" on this server.

Please advise. Is there a setting I need to change?
