Does the latest Firefox version have an IP Address? Possibly 150.1.2?

I am running the latest public stable release of Firefox, 151.0.1 (aarch64), and these last few weeks I've been getting prompted to grant my location over and over every time I do a Google search. In MacOS, I've granted Firefox location permission and I've repeatedly saved me giving google permission but it doesn't stop. This is happening on my MacBook Pro and Mac Studio.

Anyone else? Any tips? It's maddening. lol

Hi Everyone! I am having some trouble figuring out how to get rid of these "phantom" windows. They appear after I do a sign-in to my Google or Facebook account and it opens in a new window. The windows stay open in the background, or at least my Macbook shows them as windows as if they are still open. Whenever I click on them they just go to my most recently opened tab on Firefox and never actually allow me to click on them or see the tab. I've tried looking for them in the "open tabs" section on Firefox, and it doesn't show them there either. I added a photo to show that the "phantom" window is separate from my currently open browser on Firefox.

If anyone knows how to get rid of these, I would so appreciate your help! Thanks!!!

Trying to not just edit a PDF in Firefox on Linux but actually edit the document using its Dynamic-XFA format elements of that PDF. XFA is an Adobe proprietary format that they depreciated several years ago but it still works in Adobe Acrobat Free. (I use a Windows guest VM for this as a workaround for now but I'd rather not since it takes extra resources and time). Elements can be filled in FF and some menu drop downs work in FF but other dynamic XFA element buttons don't respond like the one I attached.

In Acrobat the "X" and "Add Contact" buttons will add or remove some elements to the document.

Can this be done in FF desktop?

Version 151.0.1 (64 bit) on desktop PC.

In about:config I know there are a lot of options to modify under the search term "pdfjs" but I don't know what element would allow this to possibly work if its supported.

I wish I had other better options but government documents are what they are.

I keep getting a message that I have 255 characters but 280 are needed. Is this request even going to work, I certainly hope so.

I need some of your expert help if you please. It would be a huge help to me.

Thank you again.

I used to be able to log into Peacock without issues. Either Firefox changed something or Peacock did. But it no longer works correctly. I can sign in, but the main menu appears for a split second, then the screen goes black.

no sure if this is the right topic place, but nothing else seemed any closer. can anyone tell me what the h*** the error message i keep getting when i do something like "sort by unread" and then go back to "sort by all"? i also have trouble just logging in - i have 3 profiles that i use. could not find anything in the troubleshooting section and i don't think it would be from the malware app as everything worked just fine for several years with this running any help would be greatly appreciated! wolfgang

I wanted to reactivate the integrated vpn. The help side says to do it from the Customize Toolbar side. But there is no symbol of the integrated vpn in the list there. (integrated vpn is available here, I got it on my other computer).

How can I reactivate it otherwise?

Don't know what happened but suddenly the VPN icon got huge after an update to FF151. It may have happened after I installed Nightly. Don't remember. Any idea how I can fix it?

I run Win10, and Firefox recently updated. I use https://partners.titantv.com/default.aspx as a TV guide for my Hauppauge TV tuner card. When I click on a program I want the PC to record, I click the red dot, which creates a program.tvpi file in my Downloads folder (see image attached). Up until recently, this type of file was associated so that clicking the red dot would automatically put it into the Hauppauge recording queue. However, the latest Firefox upgrade took that association away. So, now I have to double-click the program.tvpi file in the Downloads folder to activate it. Is there a way to re-associate it? I tried right-clicking the red dot, but there's no choice. I didn't see it in the Firefox, Settings, General, Applications feature. Thank you for the help.

Webgl has completly broken after last update for me. Forcing webgl in about config doesnt work and it doesnt work in troubleshoot mode either. Anything else i can try apart from reinstall from scratch as im worried about losing my history,saved account info and such. Or do i just need to do a full refresh and install? Thank you!

When contacting my bank which I have been able to do for years I find that the login page of the bank opens and i put in the sign in details and send then nothing happens apart from the indicator just keeps on going round

All I want is the ability to have my weather in the upper right hand corner of my opening screen. It was that way then you people decide for some reason that it should belong as a Widget in the lower area of my opening screen. But sense I do now want all three of your Widgets, I am left with this very awkward looking screen. Then a new update was released and my weather was returned to the upper right area of my opening screen. Then today you people updated again, and the Widget was returned to the lower left area of my opening screen.

Since you people clearly can't make up your minds, is there any possibility that you could see your way clear to offering us (your users) the ability to select where we would like the Weather the appear? Please say "Yes". Thank you.
