I have always, for 15+ years, been able to use the system Print dialog box to create a PDF.

But as of updating Firefox to version 152.0 (aarch64), all buttons related to Saving a PDF, etc. send the document straight to the Printer to print a hard copy. There no longer appears to be any way to save a PDF.

Example scenario: 1.) Visit website 2.) Select Print (cmd-P, File > Print) and open the 1st print dialog box 3.) Select "Print using the system dialog..." 4.) Select PDF in the 2nd dialog box. 5.) You used to be able to save the PDF at this stage, opening Finder, naming the file, and choose the Save DIR. However, as of this latest update, even after the Finder File Name dialog box, hitting Save at that stage sends it to the printer to print a hard copy.

Pressing PDF, Save as PDF, Open in Preview, and Save as Adobe PDF all send the file directly to the Printer to save it.

I've got tons of receipts and things to save for work in PDF and FF was always great at this. What happened? Is this a feature or a bug? Any and all advice is welcomed.

I am a subscriber to Mozilla Relay that includes the "Phone Mask". I believe I correctly configured everything ages ago, but am feeling VERY FRUSTRATED whereby I am trying to purchase tickets for a local event and the SMS code (that expires in 15 seconds) sent to my mozilla phone mask is NOT getting to my iPhone. Isn't there an end-to-end test you all have to track down misconfigurations or other issues?

I have been on this OS for many months, uploading from the photos library to a website community I'm a long-standing member of, uploading was never a problem until a couple weeks ago. Now, when I go to upload, the link connects only to my "media library" and random photos - I can't select what I need. I had an online chat w/Apple support for the past hour. Tried other browsers (using Firefox) such as safari and brave. Same problem. I created a new user and used other browser. Problem still happened.

Is there a permission issue? Or, should I download the new Tahoe OS and see if that fixes the problem?

I have had the YouTube Nonstop extension for a few months. It was great. It let me play playlists without stopping every few songs. Then today it quit working.

I turned it off and back on but that didn't work. I looked for an update but the last one was 2 years ago.

I haven't tried removing it and reinstalling it. I guess I will do that. Anyone have any ideas?

I see people communicating with the developer on the App store, but I can't find out how to do that. I don't see a link to the developer.

Any help would be appreciated.

This started recently, maybe with a recent Firefox upgrade.

Normally, when you start typing in the Address Bar of a Firefox Window, a dropdown list of suggestions appears. Very helpful.

However, NOW, the dropdown list covers up the Address Bar so I can't see what I'm typing. I can still type, and what I type goes properly into the Address Bar, only I cannot see it. (See attached screensnatch.)

Do I have a switch in the wrong position, or is this a bug?

Content Security policy blocks essential scripts no matter what I do.

It's new Firefox installation, Troubleshoot mode, Enhanced tracking disabled, I'm not on VPN, can log into X.com in another browser just fine.

It's the reason #1 I don't use Firefox. I thought the issue would be fixed but it has been like this for long time.

Yet whatever I do, whatever I turn off this pops up:

Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource (default-src) at https://abs.twimg.com/responsive-web/client-web/bundle.Conversation.721fc4aa.js because it violates the following directive: “default-src 'self'”

The screenshot is from Zen, but it uses Firefox and the issue is the same in Firefox.

I purchased mozilla vpn. It worked fine for months until a few days ago. Now I can't use the internet at all without turning it off. With the purchased version off I turned on the vpn in the firefox browser. This seems to work fine but it is only in used within the browser. The ;purchased browser is installed on my Iphone and my Mac laptop. Same problem with both. I also received an email a day or so after the trouble started saying my password for Mozilla had been changed. I did not aske for this change. Since my internet access was shut off I couldn't initiate a change of my own. It took me another day to figure out my problem was the browser. At that point I changed my Mozilla login password. I wpou;ld ;like top keep usiong the purchased version of the mozilla vpn on both my laptop and my iphone (13) because it looks more thoroughly at data going in and out of my devices.

Thanks for your help Steve Krebs

I use WhatsApp web with Firefox 151.0.3 on a Macbook Air. In WhatsApp web, you should be able to emoji over a message sent by someone else. One clicks on the smile icon at the side of the message, the emoji pallet appear above and select one of a handful of emojis. Since a recent update, the pallet no longer opens. It's just white space, the cursor does not change allowing you to pick one of the emojis. See screenshot. Is there a fix for this please?
