If I don't use the custom adjustments in my Chrome css, seven buttons on that right side of the menubar are hidden, including the min-max close buttons.

This is problematic when I'm troubleshooting Firefox, and the css is disabled. If I want to close or take the browser out of max mode, I must move those buttons to the navbar, which has no such restriction accommodating those buttons, not to mention why is it necessary for that min-max close trio to monopolize 20% of the menubar. Waste of space. Inefficient.

I'm also curious why must that frame at the top of this sites pages remains persistent, and follows the user down the page, so that when you're composing, and accidentally (and all to often) touch one of those links, it get superimposed over the message, and you must move the cursor to the bottom of the page get rid of it. Not to mention, that frame shrinks the working area of the page about 30% vertically.

I mean, once you have already navigated to the destination page, and you're composing, how often/likely are you going to need to access that area?

For some reason, I was unable to verify my account. I even thought I was wrong with my password, but that was not the case. When I use a different browser, Apple does not just ask me for a password but also a key; however, this option was not available on Firefox. With this, I can't log in to my iCloud on my Firefox Linux app.

Hi. News videos from www.bbc.com won't play. When I ask the BBC website to play a video, I get a blank area of my screen, with a play button. Clicking the button makes it go away, leaving me with just the blank area of the screen. Videos from youtube, movie trailers, etc play fine - it's just videos from a few sites (such as BBC) that yield nothing. I have autoplay videos disabled by default, but: I'm not trying to have the website autoplay; The setting doesn't affect other websites; and there's no way to disable autoplay for the website I'm on (no way I can find, at least).

My primary PC died about a month ago, and the SSD is fried. I had it synced to both my phone and a secondary one, so no problem accessing things. I bought a new one online, and it just arrived. Then, when I tried opening all my tabs on my new PC, I found that they were no longer available, on either that one, or my other devices. This is new, because I had already recovered a few individual tabs to my phone previously, but I hadn't thought to open all 50-100 of them then since I was waiting on a new primary laptop. The device still shows up among the connected services on my account, but it doesn't show the tabs anywhere I could find, and since the SSD doesn't work I can't go into the files and manually port them over. Is there a way to solve this?

Hello,

I’m experiencing an issue where I cannot use ChatGPT-5 in Firefox. When I log in and try to select or use GPT-5, nothing loads or functions properly. Other models like GPT-3.5 work normally, but GPT-5 does not respond.

I’ve already tried refreshing the page, clearing cache and cookies, and even disabling extensions — but the problem persists. Could this be a compatibility issue with Firefox? Any advice or support would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Is there any way to find out if a point release is coming? In other words, I'm running 142.0.1. I'd like to know if a 142.0.2 is going to be released. Not necessarily when, but just if one is in the works and will be released at some point.

Thanks.

I need a fix for a problem that developed from your last update. I cannot stream Xfinity since the last update. I have tried all the recommended fixes. Other browsers have no issues.

I power cycled my computer in order to install some Windows updates, and when I opened up Firefox again, I had precisely zero bookmarks.

I found this folder, which is supposed to contain my automatic backups: https://i.postimg.cc/bwrWBswd/A.png

But I can't figure out how to use those files to restore my bookmarks.

When I click on Manage Bookmarks > Import and Backup > Restore > Choose File, nothing happens. No other option seems viable.

I had an ASSLOAD of bookmarks on this browser, so I need to recover them because there's just no way I'll be able to remember them all manually and add them all back one at a time!

What do I do?

I am being blocked by newyorktimes.com. I have tried access after disabling all my extensions and preventing tracking for this site. It makes no difference. This just started happening. It is not a problem with my accoun\t as I can acces the site with Microsoft Edge.

I had firefox for 5 years it worked great then I upgraded one day about a month ago and NOW I have had to Force Quit firefox 20 out of the last 30 days. engineers ??????????????????

Twitter/X does not display, only an error message that says Twitter/X does not work with Firefox' advanced tracking (or similar). Requesting someone at Firefox and someone at Twitter/X get together and fix this so these two entities play nice with each other. Thank you in advance.

Firefox loads in some images very distorted where they are pixelated and in negative color. It's not all images, it's also not on specific websites, it's just in general. Some websites don't have any problems and others are practically unusable. The icons in my tabs are often desaturated from their normal color as well, see the youtube icon for example the color is very muted versus the actual color of the logo.

I was prompted to install a .js file while on a website unrelated to mozilla organization. I was taking a work call and distracted at the time and was dumb enough to install it before I realized this was not a normal update. Should I uninstall and reinstall firefox? My McAfee blocked the script from "trying to hijack one of [my] apps"

When attempting to access the Twitch website in normal browsing mode, the page does not load properly. Instead of the site rendering, I only see a black screen with an infinite loading spinner.

This issue does not occur in private browsing mode (incognito), Twitch loads normally there.

I found that performing a browser reset temporarily resolves the issue, but after some time the problem returns. Continuously resetting the browser is not a practical solution.

Additional details:

   Browser version: 141

   Steps to reproduce:

       Open Firefox in normal mode

       Navigate to https://twitch.tv

       Observe black screen with loading spinner

   Expected result: Twitch should load normally

   Actual result: Page remains blank with a loading spinner

   Private browsing mode works correctly

Please advise on a permanent fix or steps to diagnose this issue.

Long time ago it was the only thing we had: if you saved a file, you selected the folder. If you saved the next file, you selceted the folder, but the LRU (last recently used) was the default.

Now download folders depend on the domain, the filetype, the age of the user and the color of the T-shirt he wears. At least that's what I guess. Its so complicated, my IQ is not sufficient to understand it. And if you refuse to have it this way, its always stored to the Download folder.

After long research, opening the low level config page, identifying cryptic names of configuration properties and clicking away warnings I was able to deactivate domain specific download folders. It was so annoying, I immediately forgot how I did it.

Still I have to select the same path again and again and again for each filetype I want to store.

And the FileSelector has its own history, but the last folder I selected does not show. Why? Obviously its a fake history.
