I am playing sudoku from https://www.korsordonline.com/cross?id=37707 on Firefox 128.5esr (64bit) on Debian 12. The square in row 3 (from above) column 5 is irresponsive. Clicking on it produces nothing. It doesn't even change colour as other squares do and you cannot write a number in it.

Earlier versions of Firefox never had that problem. Later versions do, e.g. Firefox 130+ on Ubuntu 24 which I run on other hardware.

It seems to be a problem between some new property of Firefox and the developer's sudoku app, since it doesn't occur in other browsers (I tested chrome a while ago).

Could any firefox developer look into this?

Thanks,

I'm on a page I want to save to bookmarks. I double click the star and select the bookmark list, then save - but the page is not showing on the list. The list was recovered from another browser but was originally Firefox. Should I start a new bookmark list and if so how do I import all the categories and book mark?

I use Mozzila Firefox private browsing to connect to my bank account and the Social Security website. Social Security changed their website during the last year to use three outside vendors to check/confirm logon credentials. I use the ID.Me one mostly. So I go to the Social Security website and push the Login button. The website then displays the the three vendors and pick ID.Me. Once you've made your selection, you go to a notification page that says, you are leaving the Social Security page, "go back" or "yes". When I pick "yes", the computer always locks up. I have never had this clear up. The only way to proceed is to long press the On/Off button to do a hard reset.

I have an older Acer computer, Aspire 7, and it is running Windows 11. I can reach the Social Security if I use the Duck, Duck, Go web browser.

Have you seen this problem before or has it been previously reported? Is there a fix available?

My COPY context menu item is greyed out randomly. I guess it's not an issue of websites preventing copying. Happens while visiting various websites.

There's an advice to refresh Firefox, but I want to keep my passwords and avoid setting bookmarks again or resetting UI items displacement, any advice? Bugzilla threads contain some fixes, but as I have up-to-date version of Firefox, the bug is still randomly present.

Hi,

I am managing some linux servers in schools.

Actualy a lot of users are working with firefox.

Depending on how the user is working with firefox, the profil may reclaims a lot of disk space.

Is there a tool working like :

firefox_cleaning_tool /path_of_profile /options xxx

with some options like : cache / etc...

For exemple : the tool flushes profiles caches files and user have no action to do to continue using firefox as usual

this kind of tool should run every month (ie with crontab)

Is there a way to do that ?

I can manual flush some folders contents but I am afraid to do mistakes.

Thanks for your help

Completely bizarre behavior that I cannot explain or find any google matches for. When I enter a search term in Mail, I don't even have to hit enter, it shows up in Firefox's search field as soon as I make Firefox the active application (iMac desktop). It happens if I have the Firefox search bar open, or if I open it (Cmd-F) afterwards. It happens in Private Browsing. E.g. if I clear the Firefox field, go to Mail, type some letters into the search field, as soon as Firefox becomes the active window, the search term is populated.

I will entertain any explanation or suggestion, whether based in reality or not. FWIW I'm running Malwarebytes unpaid version so I have some sorta protection. For FF extensions I have Ublock origin, FB Purity, and FB container. I tried turning them off; no change. I didn't try restarting FF after turning them off though, too many tabs needed right now.

thanks, jim

I am not receiving a confirmation code at my account email for a new device. I have checked all junk folders and filter rules.

I attempted to add a secondary email and did not receive that code either.

Are you sending codes. It might hurt firefox being used if people can't confirm.

Recently when I try to access any of my accounts on my Mobile Phone through Firefox I get an error that says This Website Requires A Secure Connection. I don't get this message from any other browser on my Mobile Phone and I don't get this message on my Desktop. It tells me to try again or go to the Advance Tab and it still does not go to a site.

The bookmarks and everything works except to take me to a website.

I tried to open my Firefox browser, but was unable to. Same thing with my Google chrome browser. I ran the troubleshooter for network problems, but unable to get a solution.

I downloaded a new Firefox browser in the hopes that it would let me access the other browser so I could retrieve all the settings, bookmarks, etc. However, everything disappeared when the new browser was installing.

Is there any way for me to retrieve that information or is it a total loss?

I am recently having problems with Firefox not opening my tabs when I log into my computer. I can get them back by using history but it's fiddly and not all of them appear (and often not the most recent ones.) Can anyone tell me what the problem might be and how to rectify this. I am also having problems with Onedrive which started at the same time. I am not sure if the two things are connected or not.

I have been using credit card detail autofill for several years, using my Microsoft password. Suddenly, possibly since January 1st 2025, this feature doesn't work any more! The usual pop up asks me to choose a credit card; I do this and then enter my password and press Enter or Continue. After that nothing happens. The credit card number is not filled in for me and the same happens if I try to add the Expiry Date. Please can you see what may have changed either in my settings or elsewhere? Many thanks.

I'm having this weird issue where youtube videos will play fine as long as I don't seek the video. If I do seek a couple of times, the image will freeze but the audio continues. The subtitles also continue if enabled. Firefox Release 134.0.1--January 14, 2025 Fresh install from Flatpak. No addons installed.I have tried both on and off hardware acceleration but the issue still persists even in troubleshoot mode.But no problem with other firefox based browsers like mullvad,librewolf,zen.

I have a typical search bar at the top of the browser window. Recently, as soon as I begin to type a search, the bar expands to cover the whole top of the browser window. How do I stop this from happening? It's unnecessary and irritating. Firefox 133.0, Win 11
