The above mentioned site seems to not display correctly on Firefox while tests with other browsers are ok. Specifically, as shown in the images, the opening search results are garbled and overlayed while the second image shows the result in another browser. I have disabled add-ons like adblockers etc to no avail. Any ideas? Ian.

I am an online Spanish teacher, and I have been having some trouble. I use Google Meet and a page called Preply to do my classes. When I share my screen, my students can hear any audio (if I am sharing a YouTube video or an audio recording I've made). I don't see any options to allow my audio to be shared, and it's not a Google Meet or Preply problem because as soon as I use Opera or Google, it works. I am not sure what to do

microsoft edge has AGAIN fouled up my entire system; nothing newsworthy there. i managed to get my 3 profiles running again, but my "tabs groups" feature is gone and i only have the tabs i put in available.

can anyone tell me how to get my firefox tab groups working again?

i do a lot of research online and had dozens of groups and hundreds of tabs. these are now not showing up at all.

is there some way to go back to a working firefox tab groups or which file they would be in, etc.?

Thanks for any help! Wolfgang [edited email from public]

audio is not playing in firefox, nor does it appear in my third party sound mixer like it usually does. it does appear in windows' sound mixer, but does not play any audio. i have refreshed firefox and checked my drivers and my devices work fine. firefox is the only application on my computer that refuses to play audio.

I have my search engine set to Duck Duck Go. Fairly often, it changes to Google or eBay without my asking it to. How can I keep this from happening? I'd like to lock my settings?

I've installed various Markdown Viewer extensions, but I can't get any of them to function. When I open a .markdown (or .md) file with Firefox, the file is displayed as plain text. My markdown test file is very simple: some text, a couple of headers, a couple of lists. The file formats correctly on my android phone. Opening an HTML file with Firefox works fine. I'm baffled. Any help out there?

On windows whenever you move a tab and nudge it out of the window, it instantly creates a new window for it, but on SteamOS desktop mode, instead it only creates a new window once you release the tab onto a blank desktop. This is causing a number of glitches for me, most notably if I release onto a desktop that already has an app, it will create a ghost tab or occupies the same position as a different tab making both of them unusable and I want to know how to change it to be more like Windows, or is this a Firefox specific thing in which case will switching to another browser fix the issue?

Has any body else found Firefox relay to be mostly useless? I put up with the annoyance for a few days and then had to get rid of it.

I did use it once to get past the id page for a purchase just to look at the freight cost. Too much, so the tab was closed straight away and the masked email did not leave my computer.

The problem is that signing up to new accounts or providing your email online is something that is done only very rarely compared to the number of times your email has to be used to login to an existing account but relay has to be in the way every time.

Just a hint to the developers, those accounts already have my email and they will never lose them. Also if I need to use my email to sign in, giving a mask email is not going to work very well.

Relay is a great idea if only it could determine the right time to get in the way.

I am using firefox on ubuntu (firefox 142.0.1 (64-bit)) and using vertical tabs in the side bar. I recently started using the new(ish) feature of tab groups and I absolutely love it. I was using STG (simple tab groups) before and that fine, but this is way nicer. The only small annoyance I have, which could be a mistake on my side. Is that some of my tab groups are shortend seemingly randomly? If I for example make a group named "phone" it is visible like that, but after a couple of hours it goes to "ph...". I thought it may be sidebar width not being wide enough, but you can see in my screenshot that is not the case. Strangely if I make a new group it is always complete.

So I was wondering if I am missing a setting or config entry.

Thank you for reading and hope you have a great day!

Hello, I used to use FireFox consistently. Then I noticed a downgrade in performance. I checked Task Master and saw this FireFox with 45 entries. With few CPU entries, but over 3 Gigabytes of Memory usage. Why would that be, and what can I do to correct it and still be able to use FireFox?

When I close the browser, recently it is leaving a lot of background processes running. As a foreground application, when I close the browser, I want it ***closed***. That is, no remaining processes/services. File|Exit should mean exactly that.

@Mozilla, please fix this, or add a very clear/obvious setting in Tools|Settings for "Close all browser processes/threads" on exit. I shouldn't need to get into about:config to start finding things to disable.

This has been interfering with backups because of files remaining open/locked even after the browser is closed.

how do I stop firefox from stealing focus?

How do I STOP this site: https://wise.com/login From stealing focus from what ever I happen to be doing. This is driving me absolutely flipping nuts! All the searches I've done tell me how to prevent popups or notifications or pages from clicked links from focusing, but none of these helps. I've someone could help before I'm completely bald from tearing my hear out, it'd be great.

Thanks M

Not sure if "performance and connectivity" is the correct category. I recently bought a Mac-mini and set it up via iCloud. All seems to be working as before, except that website check boxes don't work properly. In some cases, check boxes are not visible; and when they are visible, there is no visual indication upon selecting the check box. The attached image shows two check box. Upon clicking on a circle, it does not turn black. And sometimes, the circle doesn't even display. Any help appreciated.

Ha, the checkbox below on this form "Email me when someone answers the thread" does not work show "checked" when I click on it.

For the second time in realitivly short period, bookmarks disappeared. Using the methods outlined, no luck. Click on the triple bar on right side, bookmarks, bookmark manger, import & backup, restore, that's where the trail ends

Cookies and Site Data - How do I clear all except the few I want to keep, without having to go through the list and select manually each time. i.e. "Delete all except", every time I close Firefox?
