Firefox is up to date, Windows 11.

I frequently watch BBC videos but approx one week ago, they stopped playing. I have your VPN which is usually off as it give me no advantage, (this appeared following the last update), but I've tried switching on and changing to UK location. No change.

Can you give me some suggestions please?

hello, I am using novation components online: https://components.novationmusic.com/ It's the only thing I have to do with an other browser because firefox does not support the midi features... It is pity... Maybe one day it will work... All the best

Hello there, I'm trying to add the surfshark extension to Firefox but I keep getting a pop-up asking if I want to go ahead and add the extension to Chrome. When I click cancel it just closes the pop-up, clicking 'Install now' just brings it up again. I've just istalled Surshark.

Any ideas ?

The "New" PDF previewer sucks, can we revert to the old one that actually worked ?! It's a "Preview" , maybe don't try to open everything and BE a PDF program inside the browser, the whole point is to get a "Quick" look so you can decide to open , or, delete it ! This is as Bad as MS Edge trying to take over for PDF's , Revert this change, or Give us a way to choose to use the old way ! Thank you.

With the most recent update, the autofill password background color is now white instead of black, as it had been forever, with my system settings on Dark Mode / system.

I cant see any place to change the autofill background color, other than follow system settings or set to dark mode. Which I have done both, restarted firefox and my PC - still showing white background. again, this just started with a recent firefox update, about a week or so ago, maybe there is a glitch in there?

Please advise. Thank you~ SG

I messaged support yesterday, but I haven't received a reply yet. I am having trouble logging into my account because I no longer have access to the associated email address; however, I can provide specific details proving the account belongs to me so that you can link it to a different email.

Your current build of firefox runs substantially worse for me than previous versions. I use Firefox because it is non-chromium, which typically offers more user freedom and control, but these new performance settings which cannot be edited individually, but are controlled automatically, are overstepping. Please advise how I can change the settings on a deeper level than simply switching off hardware acceleration. I'd like to limit multiprocessing primarily, but I would also like to have access to other performance settings. Further, I would like to have more control over how Firefox can access my devices. Please advise how I can access and edit the full list of permissions available to Firefox. I ask for this in the interest of transparency and personal data protection.

I added Firefox to my new laptop and needed to reset my password to login. I recognize a few of my old bookmarks at the top but all of my passwords and login information is gone and none of my old devices are showing up. I have never encountered this issue before, please help.

Can you just please stop to force user to restart when there's an update? its annoying really, i've been using firefox for years, and this thing makes me want to leave firefox. At least make this message optional, let user continue browser at will and apply the update when the user finished using firefox. ps. my setting: Automatically install update ON -> When Firefox is not running (ticked/ON).

The subject line of replies to email messages are preceded with Aw: instead of Re:. Aw: appears to be the German language version of Re:, but my language is set to English as best as I can determine. Forwarded email are preceded with Fw: as normal. My other email (Yahoo mail) does not have this problem. I do not see anything other than the Subject line Aw: that looks like it is in another language. If I use a different browser (I usually use Firefox,) the same problem occurs so I do not think it is a browser setting. It only happens in my mail.com account so I do not think it is a global Windows setting. This problem started several months ago -- I have been using mail.com for many years without this problem so it appears to be caused by a mail.com update. Thanks.

FireFox Browser Crashing from Multiple Windows with Dual Monitors causing memory crashes in gnome.

google chrome used to have a brower extension called "The Great Suspender" to stop these crashes. If firefox can't figure this out I am not going to continue using firefox and go back to chrome.

I’m working on my website Srishti Gupta , and I noticed that some design elements appear differently in Firefox compared with other browsers. What Firefox Developer Tools should I use to identify CSS or responsive-design compatibility problems?

Facebook doesn't recognize me from visit to visit so I can't update my password, which possibly was included in a data breach. I've tried allowing cookies from Facebook. Didn't work. Thoughts?

Sorry if this is addressed elsewhere but I could not find it. After a recent update Firefox (Windows 11) started each website file download (mostly pdfs) at the Downloads folder. Previously, it would start at the most recent folder to which I downloaded a file. Since nearly all of my downloads are in a few neighboring folders way down the folder tree, I now have a ton of navigating to do for every single download. This is not sustainable. I have done a lot of Googling and investigated several suggested changes to about:config. I changed browser.download.folderList from 1 to 2. I made sure that browser.download.useDownloadDir is false. No effect. Any other suggestions? I am considering abandoning Firefox altogether. It has issues with some parts of the Medicare website. And an earlier update seemingly eliminated my ability to set a particular web page (Google) for new tabs, due to which I often wait a while for the page to appear, then realize I must click on Home. I like Firefox , but too many issues are accumulating and I can't seem to find solutions. Thanks for any help.

Hi, I have a shortcut which comes up with a blank icon. I've tried Google help to use a custom picture, but nothing worked. The complication is that my shortcut does not go to Xerox, it goes to their pension provider who has a different name. The shortcut works fine but it would be nice if I didn't have a blank icon.
