Hello,

I disabled the AI summarizer almost immediately after seeing it because:

1. It was not able to summarize the page
2. It blocked the information I actually needed to see on the page

However, shortly after disabling it I got a pop-up ad advertising the feature! (attached)

Related Question: Want to remove or disable AI summarizer

Hi I see that Firefox has the option to ask an AI chatbot, with your options for AI being Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Le Chat Mistral. What I'm not seeing is an option for Lumo, Protons new chatbot. My question is is there any future support coming for Lumo, or better yet, an option to let FF users choose ANY chatbot, not just these 4?

Reporting a bug:

"Firefox can’t update your languages right now. Check that you are connected to the internet or try again." but - Connection is established, INDEED!

German language pack not available :( manually downloaded verisons of german Language pack are incompatible.

please fix.

I don't know why, but when I browse pages in English, the context menu offers to "translate selection into Hebrew". This is weird and totally unwanted. I don't know how FF decided that I need translations, and specifically to Hebrew!

In the settings, my preferred language is "English (US)". In "translation settings", the list of "Translation will happen automatically for the following languages" is empty, and the list of "Translation will not be offered for the following languages" has Hebrew and French. (I would add English but I don't see how.)

Is there a way to just remove this translation option from the context menu?

suddenly today the mic has stopped working in Chat GPT. I have changed nothing... checked all settings, everything is ok... why does it suddenly say "Enable Mic Access to Dictate"?

Hello, I am no longer able to sign into my Apple iCloud account and tools (Mail, Calendar, Notes, etc) through my Firefox browser. The problem started this past Friday, and it happening on both my home office and work laptops. When I switch to my Microsoft Edge browser on the same 2 laptops, I am able to sign-in to my iCloud account and tools without any difficulty. So it is not a problem on the Apple iCloud side. I am able to access my iCloud account and tools/apps from my iPhone and my iPad as always. It is only when I try to login from a Firefox browser window that I get a "Failed to Verify Your Identity" error message.

I can no longer enter a password on the login page at https://secure.bankofamerica.com/login/sign-in/signOnV2Screen.go. I was able to change my password but it didn't help. A BofA agent could not identify the problem and walked me through the login using Chromium.

При заходе на сайте ya.ru и если на нём имеется строка с видео или поиск с алисой, то начинаются сильные фризы. Это ошибка именно в firefox 142, проверенно.

I know this is probably not possible, but thought I'd ask.

My example would be my pinned email tab. Is there some way to create immediate access with a shortcut, rather that a bookmark, or having to navigate to the beginning of the tab session?

Javascript is not working in my firefox. Even going into settings to enable java script doesn't work, because it says java script is enabled. But the webpages tell me that they need javascript enabled in order to work.

Firefox doesn't have my new credit card account number. My old card was compromised and replaced with a new card and account number. But Firefox still maintains my old account number and it insists on auto-filling my cancelled card number when placing an order on line. How do I update my credit card information, or how do I delete the cancelled card number?

How to disable the auto-adding of shortcuts feature from history to home page? It's really annoying, when I want to change my pinned shortcuts, I have to delete all auto added shorcuts (Even when the items on the screen are finished, they keep appearing in front of me, and this takes a long time). It is a must feature I think.

Hi, I'm using Firefox 142 on Ubuntu 24.04. It's a fresh install. I cannot sign in icloud.com with Firefox even though it works with other browsers like Brave. I deleted all cookies and site data and disabled extensions (KeePassXC). It doesn't help. I tried in new private window. No success. I copy my password from a password manager, so, no, I haven't mistyped it.

Here's what I do:

1. Open Firefox and go to icloud.com
2. Click on the "Sign In" button
3. Enter my Apple-ID and click on the arrow on the right end of the "Email or Phone Number" field

At this point Brave behaves differently than Firefox. See below for how Brave behaves.

Firefox: -> A "Password" field appears (no buttons "Continue with Password" and "Sign in with Passkey")

1. Enter my password and click on the arrow on the right end of the "Password" field

-> Error message "Failed to verify your identity. Try again" appears. See icloud.png

Brave: -> Two buttons "Continue with Password" and "Sign in with Passkey" appear. See icloud-with-brave.png

1. Click on button "Continue with Password"

-> A "Password" field appears.

1. Enter my password and click on the arrow on the right end of the "Password" field

-> 2FA code is sent to my iPhone -> "Two-Factor Authentication" form opens... etc. complete sign in successfully

Please help!

Unfortunately I cannot attach the HAR file from the login sequence because the password is included. However, I attached some screenshots from the Web Developer Tools. It seems to me that the login flow with Firefox is broken. I can't tell who's to blame, Apple of Firefox. The error message with Firefox is always the same, no matter whether I enter the correct password or rubbish. In Brave, however, there is a more precise error message when I enter a bad password. See icloud-with-brave-wrong-password.png

As title: after running updates, Firefox consistently crashes when launching.

To give more concrete details:

-Running on Linux, specifically KDE Fedora 42. Firefox was updated to 142 from 141, alongside various other updates. -When launching Firefox from any source (directly, through a link, through the terminal etc.), the only window that appears is the crash reporter. -This issue occurs when launching in safe mode. Removing and reinstalling Firefox, including deleting the entire .mozilla folder in Home at the same time does not resolve the issue. I am unable to test rolling Firefox back to 141. -When attempting to launch from the terminal (safe mode or otherwise), the following is output (personal info redacted):

restorecon: SELinux: Could not get canonical path for /home/[username]/.mozilla/firefox/*/gmp-widevinecdm/* restorecon: No such file or directory.

/usr/include/c++/15/array:210: constexpr std::array<_Tp, _Nm>::value_type& std::array<_Tp, _Nm>::operator[](size_type) [with _Tp = HeaderBarButtonType; long unsigned int _Nm = 3; reference = HeaderBarButtonType&; size_type = long unsigned int]: Assertion '__n < this->size()' failed.

Redirecting call to abort() to mozalloc_abort

[ExceptionHandler generates a minidump etc.]

Gtk-Message: [timestamp]: Failed to load module "appmenu-gtk-module"

(I would note that to the best of my knowledge I had not included a plugin for decoding widevine in my Firefox setup, and certainly the Firefox 141 instance on the device being used to write this post (same OS) does not include it) -The crash files in the .mozilla folder, meanwhile, consistently list a segfault at address 0x0.

Any advice on diagnosing/solving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if there's any other information that would be helpful.

If it would be more appropriate, I could report this through Mozilla's bugzilla instance, but given the issue seems to be very niche (Fedora's ABRT shows a total of 5 unique affected users in the last few days) I am unsure whether flagging this there would be appropriate.
