I was pasting in data from the internet into my spreadsheet and google sheets (or Firefox) is pasting in said data three times and it is driving me insane. I paste the raw values in a formatted cell, and rapidly it pastes correctly, but then pastes the original data/cell at least once if not twice. Like, say there's a green cell and I paste the values in it, and it works, but it then pastes the data OVER the cell removing the formatting. The worst part? It works correctly on chrome!

i HAVE CLEARED THE CACHE, DATA, HISTORY, everything i CAN THINK OF. aLL WEB SITES WORK FINE except gO dADDY.

I now have 2 accounts in Thunderbird: Local (which has years of folders, but stopped receiving email from my Web mail provider) and my webmail Provider that does not download it from the provider. He claimed it is more modern and safer to synchronize across all devices and keep stuff on the web Mail application. I prefer to keep all my folders and emails on my local computer. Should I use POP? iMAP? to do that? Thanks for your assistance?'

I recently tried to connect to two different meeting sites. Both times I got a pop-up noting (correctly) that camera and microphone are blocked. I'm able to click to enable the microphone but I never get the option to enable the camera.

I tried going to Settings>Security&Privacy>Camera but that only allows me to remove previously-enabled websites.

Clicking on the settings button in the address bar shows audio and recording settings but no camera.

What am I doing wrong?

Fedora 42 Firefox 145.0

Hi Thunderbird,

Windows would not let me keep any apps when I upgraded to Windows 11 so I am having to set up Thunderbird again. But I also had to sign into my Yahoo account again - and had to change the password. Now Thunderbird can find my address (<redacted>@yahoo.com) but it cannot verify the password.

I had an email I had to send today so had to download Outlook - against all my principles! Please, please, find a way I can get back to Thunderbird and expunge Outlook! I donate every month and have done for years. . .

Best wishes, Kitty

Since updating Firefox from a previous version, the browser no longer displays any Unicode emoji characters. Where an emoji would normally be rendered (👁️), the browser instead displays empty space. Websites such as twitter and discord, which use their own artwork for emoji, are unaffected. This has negatively affected my browsing experience.

For illustrative purposes, I will add a series of emoji and include a screenshot of how they are displayed: (😀🙁😡💀). Other characters still display correctly: (β❖♞䷲⎈𐘢𓀺இ). My computer otherwise displays emoji correctly. The issue persists after disabling extensions, and has persisted between computer restarts.

I am using Firefox version 147.0.4 (aarch64) on a Macbook Air running macOS Sequoia 15.5.

I've used Firefox for 20 years through the various iterations of Windows, and have been using it trouble free on Windows 11 since November 2024. Two days ago, however, When I tried to open the Guardian site (www.theguardian.com) it would open very slowly and not load and of the pictures. This gradually got worse, the site taking for ever to open at all, and always with the little dot in the tab at the top left going from side to side showing it was still loading. I have tried everything I can think of. Opened in troubleshoot mode, changed DNS settings, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox twice (one time to see if it would work normally if I didn't actually sign in to my account). All to no avail. In fact now things are worse, in that the GOV.Uk website is now giving me similar problems - and a few other sites have become slightly slow and reluctant to open as well. My internet connection seems fine, and all these sites open without any trouble on Microsoft Edge. I am NOT very good at tech, and I am now tearing my heair out as to what I can try next.

Any help wopuld be gratefully received!

When using Thunderbird 140 I am able to setup the background color of the message pane for individual messages. However when the messages are threaded, the message pane shows a preview of all of the threaded messages together in the message pane with a different background color than individual messages.

Unable to connect

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at mesp.finance.gov.bd.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

hi. how can i copy or cut the URL from the address bar?? There is no pop-up, drop down ? All other browsers can do this.

and also the whole text in the bar seems not to be selected.

Firefox 147.0.4 on macOS 26.3 does not work via SOCKS proxy.

Firefox 147.0.4 on Windows 11 x64 works fine via the same intranet SOCKS proxy, with exactly the same settings.

The advantage of Firefox is its flexibility. It supports its own SOCKS proxy settings, independent of systems-wide ones. Unfortunately, it seems this Firefox feature is broken on macOS (but Windows version works perfectly).

Safari 26.3 (21623.2.7.11.6) and DuckDuckGo 1.177.0 (625) web-browsers that use system-wide macOS SOCKS proxy settings also works fine with this intranet proxy server. So it seems SOCKS proxy server itself is OK, and the problem is confined to Firefox on macOS.

Has anyone seen Firefox 147 on macOS work via SOCKS proxy? Is there a principal difference between how Firefox handles SOCKS proxy on macOS vs. Windows? What might be the best way to address the problem on macOS?

Thanks!

I've been using Firefox for a while, and while there are many things I like about it, it has always been a resource hog. In the past I could get around this by just killing Firefox in Windows Resource Manager and restarting, but ever since getting a new computer an upgrading to Windows 11, it's gotten worse. Every couple of days my computer freezes for 10 or more minutes, I'm having to do a hard reboot ever few days, and I'm even bluescreening about twice a month. I'm pretty sure Firefox is the culprit because killing it will usually resolve the issue.

I'm wondering if there is some way to put Firefox in a sandbox so it does not consume nearly all available memory and other computer resources. It is by far the biggest consumer of resources on my system and I do not want to dedicate 4GB+ of memory to an app that is just showing a couple of web pages and playing YouTube videos.

Did ask forum for help on 12/9/2025, and though there was some info on line to solve my problem, I was unable to understand it, or proposed solutions did not work.Tried now to log into mozilla account, but cannot find any section about any replies. As problem driving me crazy, will try again.

1 When emails come in, instead of the sender being shown in the from box, it gves me at pethen.riseup.net as the sender. 2 If i click on any link in the text of the email which I need to access, this function does not work. All that appears is the link text I click on gets surrounded by a text edit box (ie a thin square line with small boxes you can put an arrow on to change shape of box for editing 3 a yellow banner appears at the base of any email reading " a unique identity matching the from address was not found. + "the messagewill be sent using the current from field and settings from identity peter hendry<pethen@riseup.net> 4 My other emailaddress linked to my mozilla thunderbird client has no problems. This has to be such a simple problem relating to the account set up which for some reason my PC has taken into itself to change, either text in my address books do not match, or I have ticked a wrong bos in the setup, or not ticked one at all,

Please can any help this struggling man! Peter

A "send later" button came up one morning instead of the usual "send" button. When I clicked on the write button to see where the "send" button was, several choices came up but when I clicked on the "write" choice I lost the other choices and now can't get back to the original write button and still no "send" button appears anywhere on the menu. I can save messages to Draft but still can't actually send them. I can still receive emails, just can't send them! Help!
