I'm unable to log in to my mozilla account to enable firefox account sync.
WHAT HAPPENS: 1. select firefox account log in option in firefox browser 2. enter username and password 3. the following page states that I will receive an authentication/verification code in my email 4. I receive the verification code in my email 5. I enter the code on the original prompt 6. I receive an error stating my "password" is incorrect.
Note: on step #2, if I intentionally enter the wrong password, the browser will immediately skip to #6.
WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN: 1. system should be sending verification numbers that work.
I reinstalled the browser and I'm still unable to log in to my firefox account.

I'm having stutters while watching videos in full-screen mode. It is really unpleasant to watch them with stutters.
I'm using Firefox 62.0.3 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 18.04, but I had the very same problem with version 61. The drivers are the open source RadeonDrivers.
I've also created a new profile, with no extension installed. No improvements at all.
If I look at the videos in Chrome, I see them really smoothly. This lead me to believe it is not a graphic driver problem.
Note: on Windows with the same firefox version, I have absolutely no problems.
What can I try?
firefox does not say system timezone. why?

Hi!
When I set my /etc/localtime to Etc/TAI ( http://www0.wgboome.org/zoneinfo-TAI.tar.xz (warning: i'm not completely sure that the tm_gmtoff field changes in the right second...)), then tzname/locatime/gmtime say this: TAI/TAI 2018-09-01T20:16:45+00:00:37(TAI) 2018-09-01T20:16:08+00:00:00(UTC)
But: Firefox does say UTC instead of TAI: http://arne.wow64.net/tai.html Furthermore the time is not UTC but the system time (which is TAI) (see screenshot).
Here they have the same problem: http://priyom.org/number-stations/station-schedule They say it is "UTC time", but in fact the displayed time is TAI (i. e. 37 seconds off (currently)).
What else do I need to change, so that firefox shows the system time&timezone correctly?
Thx.

How to make Firefox honor Pulseaudios volume setting when having "flat-volumes = no" in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf?

I'd like to adjust Firefox's audio volume using Pauvcontrol the same way it works with VLC: moving the volume slider in the application makes the volume slider in Pulseaudio's volume control move, too. Furthermore, the volume setting for the application specific stream gets restored by PA's module-stream-restore. The volume setting of the stream, which played last before closing the application window(s), is being saved.
If "both ways syncing of Firefox's volume settings with Pulseaudio" is not feasible or possible, is there a way to prevent Firefox from modifying it's own audio stream volume setting? I would prefer a way which doesn't involve the hijacking of the pipe to manually filter out volume-setting commands.
Thanks a lot:)

I'm getting some really strange display issues with the Noto Color Emoji font on Firefox. The emoji is displayed with text overlaid on it. I can't use the Twemoji SVGinOT package because it breaks emoji display on my Linux distribution. My distro is Xubnutu 18.10. And I'm using the latest stable version of Firefox.

I recently switched from chrome to firefox and i noticed some strange behavior with some sites.
The content if certain elements is just not visible. I managed to solve this for some cases by installing the plugin "Text contrast for dark themes" (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/text-contrast-for-dark-themes/).
Then i noticed that any formula embedded in wikipedia is invisible. After tinkering with the color settings i managed to solve this and thought iam fine. Lately i just noticed that some Bitbucket checkboxes are just not visible (or at least the current check state). I attached a picture of the problem. To clarify, developers have the permission to create repositories.
Iam running Ubuntu 16.04 with the Mona 1.0 Unity theme.

I had multiple windows open (many), with multiple tabs on each of one (many).Firefox froze, causing my laptop to freeze. This has happened before. I have restarted my laptop, (running the fedora 27), opened mozilla firefox, but this time the 'restore previous session' from the history tab was not available to click and restore. I have looked at the session restore in the .mozilla directory, but there is no previously stored backup file. Only in the 'datareporting/'archived/2018-10 directory I see several jsonlz4 files dated since October 1st 2018. Although I have tried to open them with different ways via mozilla I had no success (e.g. copying to sessionrestore directory, renaming them as sessionrestore file, or opening them with an editor just in case there are html adresses stored, etc). In addition I have tried the about: config file, which is is set correctly to restore tabs when I reopen firefox. I have gone through the triple tab, preferences, history options. No success. The only way I can find some addressed is via the history tab--> show all history, but then this is messy, and not all of my tabs are saved. Is there anyway I can find all the windows/tabs I had since today (15/10/2018) morning? Thank you.

When searching my hard drives for files, Firefox crashes constantly, between gah! and ctd. Crash reports are no longer being generated. (about:crashes is empty)
My search for files uses the linux default file explorer. This search is completely independent of firefox but seems to be causing the issue.
Linux Mint 18.3 64bit
Crashes are repeatable. Have a handful of tabs open, watch a video on youtube then open explorer search for a file, then wait.
Might be a file access thing where firefox attempts to write/read while file explorer is checking the file? (just an educated guess)

Hello, I would like to know if there is a way to prevent the synchronization of a particular extension. I have a laptop and a pc: on the laptop I have a distro with KDE as desktop environment. On the pc I have Linux Mint. Now every time that I start Firefox on the pc, I get an error related the impossibility to install the Plasma Integration extension (which is a correct considering that KDE is not installed on the pc). But it is a bit annoying to see this error every time.. Some advice?

It is a weird problem. I am unable to copy from or paste into a tweet in Firefox. e.g.
- I can copy some content from a web-page but can not paste it into tweets at Twitter (works in Chrome) - If I copy some content from a tweet, then it does not appear when I paste it, just empty (works in Chrome)
I can do all of copy-paste without any problem in other web-pages in Firefox (gmail or forums registrations e.g.). I have cleared all the cache, even deleted ~/.mozilla and ~/.cache directories by hand too but nothing helps.
