Odd thing here, some (not all) videos on Twitter don't play. I get the first frame with the blue play button, but when I click it, it goes black with no sound. Some videos work, particularly the longer ones. Animated GIFS do not work.
I have tried nearly everything I found on the internet: new profile, clearing cookies/cache, changing about:config settings, using safe mode: nothing worked. Chrome does not play also, but it does not show a black screen, it freezes in the first frame (i.e, the blue play button simply vanishes).
I also have tried to access the video URL directly, it also does not play. But if I download the video and play it locally with VLC, it DOES play. Funny thing, this.

I am currently suspecting that it's a codec problem in the browsers. I went to html5test.com, it says that my Firefox does not support MPEG-4 ASP and H.265. But in the YouTube HTML5 page (https://www.youtube.com/html5) all checkboxes are marked.
So, I'm out of ideas. Please help.

As of today, I can't select the checkbox besides a message in yahoo mail. Doing so just opens up the message. I would like to go back to being able to use the checkbox to select many emails for deletion at the same time. I was able to do this in yahoo mail up until today. This only happens in Firefox. When I open my yahoo mail in Internet Explorer, it works just fine the way it always did.
"Standard" CSS syntax coloring?

Is there a standard anywhere for syntax highlighting colors - e.g., CSS? Now, it'd be up to CSS3 (at least - I guess). I read a few articles about people updating their CSS syntax colors to "new standards," but I've not found reference to such standards.
The CSS colors in devtools dark theme are quite different from other text editors. Even so, I need to brighten some up - for eyesight reasons. Some devtools CSS highlight colors in dark theme must have been picked by "nocturnal animals" only, that see in the dark. :) Select text color is almost same as dark theme BG.
It's not a big problem changing them, but I'd try to stick to standards, if they exist.
I assume (somewhere) Mozilla has an index of colors they used for which parts in devtools for CSS?
Since using the Firefox browser, my yahoo emails print so large they will not fit on a page. I tried decreasing the screen size but no luck.
I went to my yahoo email account using Explorer and the emails print out fine. Any suggestions?

I am using FF 69.0.3 and I was recommend using TM over Greasemonkey. But for some reason TM completely kills FF. It installs perfectly and the icon is shown on the top bar, but after closing FF and opening, the page just hangs as if my connection has died and the icon is gone. I have tried to remove / install it several times and also tried the beta version, but it is the same each time. I have also tried to disable all other add-ons with the exception of RES (reddit) and Ublock Origin. Alas, I can not get it to work.
Any advice?

To replicate the issue...
1. Add some bookmarks 2. Go to options 3. Ensure Firefox Home (Default) is selected for both homepage and new tabs 4. Ensure Highlghts is checked 5. Uncheck Visited Pages, Most Recent Download and Pages Saved to Pocket leaving Bookmarks checked 6. Open a new tab
Result: Highlights is empty displaying the message "Start browsing, and we’ll show some of the great articles, videos, and other pages you’ve recently visited or bookmarked here."
What I expected... the bookmarks saved in step 1
How can you get bookmarked pages appearing in the Firefox home page?
Can anyone please ask Mozilla to fix the issues with the Google News website?

The Google News website has been broken in Firefox for some time now. I have regularly used the "Firefox makes me sad" feedback feature but still nothing gets done.
There are three main issues: (1) Sometimes only the visible part of the page loads (it takes up to 20 seconds for scrollbars to appear) (2) When you middle-click on articles (to open in new tabs) and return to the Google News tab, it is blank with a progress load icon for 10-20 seconds (see image attached) (3) When you click on the down arrow, to show more articles for a story, the page freezes for up to 20 seconds with nothing on the page functioning (no links work, right-click doesn't work)
Before any suggests either (1) try a clean profile or (2) check your add-ins I already have done both, and I can replicate this issue on multiple different computers, even in Virtual Machines where Firefox has only just been installed.
So it's (1) either an issue with Firefox which finally needs to be addressed or (2) Google deliberately crippling this site for Firefox users, in which case Mozilla need to change the browser header when accessing this site to lie and report as being Chrome
Either-way can someone please finally fix this, it's becoming irritating having to load up Chrome or Edge to use this site

Why isn't there a "name" column in the "Show all bookmarks" display? (FF 69 forward)

Now that FF is updated to version 69, when "Show all bookmarks" is selected, the window shows only the list of URLs, not their associated names (the select-columns pulldown has "Name" checked, but greyed-out. What's the reason for this? If I want to sort through links by name in case I want to delete any of them, I can't (sorting by URL is of no help as very often I tweak the name to something usually shorter)

Hi, my MSN outlook.live.com email just shows a blank page. I noticed this on 8-16-19 I was opening a link that took me to a google service rating site. After I rated the business I then went back to my email and just a blank page shows. I did remove all cookies, recent history, but not all history. It did not help so I updated from v.47 to v56 and thought that might clear it up, but it did not help. I can use it on IE v11. Not sure if I can try something else or not, before doing a refresh, another update or uninstall and reinstall. I am 72 now so was looking for a easy fix, just don't remember stuff like I used to?

Whenever I log into my financial institution's or my ISP's website, Firefox often freezes. My version is 69.0.3 on Windows 7 64-Bit. Would the Windows 7 be the problem? Is this version of Firefox more for benefit of Windows 10 users? My next computer will not be Windows as I did not get my money's worth out of seven. Too much maintenance required; and I don't need this problem. Thank you.

Dear community,
I'm really frustrated by the yesterday update on firefox version 69.0.3 (64-Bit). It automatically installed a new profile (without any question!).
Today I started firefox and found out, that all my data wasn't migrated to the new profile. So I had to search for a solution and was able to switch to the old profile.
Although for safety reasons I wanted to backup my bookmarks. The export to a json- or a html-file is not possible. No error is shown! Simply no file is saved when I click on the save-button!
Also a downgrade to version 68 didn't bring a solution, because there I was not able to switch to my default-profile. The error message was shown, that the profile could be ruined, if it was already updated to the new version 69 and used there.
Because of the update I was forced to register to Firefox Sync and to uplad all my data there. I did never want to upload my bookmarks, passwords and addons somewhere to the internet.
I'm really frustrated by this update (after so many years of being a satisfied firefox user) and am thinking about an alternative browser.
I hope somebody can help me to not lose all my data.
Thank you Best Wishes Stan

When I try to access a website that's been blocked by my ISP, I get no "blocked" message at all, the site just times out and invites me to retry. This is incredibly annoying as not only am I wasting my time trying to load the site, but I am not even being made aware that the site has been blocked. This seems like someone is being deceptive - hiding the fact that censoring is taking place, which I find abhorrent.
I'd like to know if Firefox is to blame, or my ISP?
