There a way to cast videos from my firefox desktop version to my chromecast?

I use a extension (fx_cast) but wihout sucess.

I need to use another browsers (chrome, chromium, edge) all theses works well.

Any solution?

I would like to be able to download YouTube videos.

Is there a Firefox add-on that will allow me to download YouTube videos onto my MacMini?

I tried Video DownloadHelper and YouTube Video Downloader and didn't see any action.

Do I need to setup settings a certain way to make it work?

What are the steps to make it work?

Thank you for your assistance.

I just got a new laptop and have set Firefox as the default browser. Duckduckgo is my search engine which I could use on the Firefox home page with my old machine. I do not want to search with Google. I see no way to eliminate Google as the default search engine. How can I change this?

Thank you

Everytime i open firefox it defaults to bing, but not as a homepage which is just my regular firefox, rather as a startup screen. If the firefox application is closed and opened again it will default to bing.

Hi,

I have a sidebar that appears to be permanent and I cannot make it go away.

I opened firefox, went to reopen the previous session tab with control + shift + t, and my fingers slipped and hit the wrong combo of buttons.

Then this thing appeared. This sidebar. I looked for similar questions on the topic, but it is not the history or bookmarks sidebar that pops up from control + h or control + b. I love hotkeys.

So my question is, how do I disable the dang thing?? I tried going into custom tools, I tried looking into settings, but I really cannot find this. And it seems that other issues are usually to due with bookmarks/history sidebars - which I don't believe to be the issue here..

Any help is greatly appreciated!

It's the sidebar on the left in my image if that provides any further info!

Thanks :)

I frequently use a polish website that does not have an english translation built in. I want firefox to always automaticly translate that website to english or german. But i do not want to translate all polish websites. Just that one. How do i set that up?

I am reaching out to seek assistance with a recurring issue we are experiencing in the Mozilla Firefox browser.

Issue Description: On the user's first visit to the page, the thumbnail fails to load and displays a black screen instead of the intended image. This issue is observed specifically in Firefox, while the same functionality works seamlessly across other browsers.

Steps to Reproduce: Open our webpage in Mozilla Firefox. Ensure it is the first visit (clear cache if necessary). Observe the thumbnail image section.

Expected Behavior: The thumbnail should load and display the intended image correctly.

Actual Behavior: The thumbnail displays a black screen instead.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken: Verified server response and headers; no anomalies found. Checked CORS policies and ensured they are configured correctly. Tested in other browsers (Chrome, Edge, etc.), where the issue does not occur.

Request for Assistance: Could you please help us identify if this issue is related to:

Any specific Firefox rendering engine behavior? Known bugs or limitations in handling thumbnails or images on the first load? Additional configurations we might need to implement for Firefox compatibility?

In my latest update of Firefox, it has a new sidebar, which I do not want, but cannot get rid of, and is really annoying. Google searches suggest a few ways to get rid of it, but none of them work in my case. Please help me get rid of this new sidebar. Thank you!

I opened up my pc and launched firefox, and then firefox told me that its 20 years and that I can get a special edition wallpaper, I followed the instructions: New tab -> Settings, but I can't find the special edition wallpaper in the settings. Where can I find it?
