Firefox version 142.01. After the update I find that Firefox opens normally with tabs visible as normal. When I use the > button to scroll to tabs not visible, the tabs scroll as normal but as soon as I release the mouse button they immediately and rapidly scroll back to the original position. This means I am unable to access many of my tabs. I have searched for information on this but have not been able to find anything specific. I have cleared cookies etc., refreshed Firefox, used a different mouse all to no avail. Another issue is that when trying to select which topic best describes my problem, the pop up only flashes on the screen and when it does stay on, it vanishes again when I try to select an issue. I managed to select the one shown but it was the only one I could access. I don't know what else to do. Any help will be gratefully received. Thanks. Owen

I have an account with Songsterr. It's a music tabs site.

I moved over to Firefox as my primary browser relatively recently & I've noticed that the captions in Songsterr are all messed up. I've been on to Songsterr about it & they cannot solve it but, on a whim, I checked Songsterr in Safari & everything appears normal so I'm going to assume for the moment that this is a firefox related issue.

I've added 4 screenshots. The first two are from Safari & show how the captions should appear. The second two are from Firefox & you can see that it's all messed up.

I found an article on Reddit that may be related but I wanted to check here first & see if any of you could shed any light.

I'm using

Thanks. :)

Hello,

For enterprise solutions, for our browser extension can we disable the switch button where user can turn-off the "Access your data for all websites"?

This can be informed to the end user and also approved by the IT admins.

But the option to disable at runtime on the fly needs to be disabled.

Hi,

I have an unusual request.

I have mistakenly used dictionary.com several times, but I don't want to use it anymore. I'm using cambridge.dictionary.org as it has more entries.

Problem is whenever I type dic--- dictionary.com always comes up. How can I delete this side off my autofill?

Thanks,

Firefox won’t load any links from Gmail or articles. When I hit a link, it opens a page with the URL ‘ https://go.skimresources.com/‘ and says ‘a server with the specified hostname could not be found’. This has happened with multiple links from multiple pages. My WiFi is fine and it’s also happened on data and I don’t see any available app updates. I’ve also tried deleting and reinstalling it.

The font size settings appear to have been removed from General Settings or anything below that. They can be found using the search function, and they do work when changed, but I've seen the font size go back to default more than once. So, at the moment, they're kind of hidden and ephemeral.

Updating the old question I have as I have attached more detailed information.

Same profile existing in Thunderbird and one is taking up 100 GB space. The Cloud station folder was setup before, and I have no history of it, it might be a shared drive, I don't know why it takes up 100 gb of space and it has a same copy on the Users profile with lesser storage around 33 gb. Can somebody help, i'm not deleting any profiles cause I don't want to accidentally delete emails and the profile has emails older than 2020.

I need to free up some space on this machine without losing the emails as disk is getting full because of this problem.

Recently my message selection shortcuts changed. Until a few weeks ago, I could select a range of messages by clicking on the first, depressing shift, then clicking on the last message in the range. Since then, I have had to select a range of messages by clicking on the first, depressing ctrl+shift, then clicking on the last message in the range. What changed, and how do I change back to using only the shift key?

I've done all the troubleshooting I could find, including: Uninstalling, tried using beta ff, disabled hardware acceleration, disabled/removed all extensions, memtest, updated various drivers. Still frequent tab crashes Tried two other browsers and neither of those had any issues. No crashing on edge or duckduck.

Crash reason seem to be mostly EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ and EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT

Few crashes from today: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/repor.../647f9599-8e18-417d-852e-b52300250827 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/repor.../2001d7f1-4cfc-476b-9a88-4679a0250827 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/repor.../b2101bae-a1cc-404c-b0d2-7b8230250827 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/repor.../dede8925-55e3-484e-b2ab-3863d0250827

Hola, el problema es el siguiente: Al agrandar la pantalla a pantalla completa en videos en vivo, o sea streaming en vivo en youtube, de repente mi computadora empieza a consumir muchos recursos y el video para de reproducirse, y no responda al mouse, solo al teclado. Cabe aclarar que esto solo empezo a pasar hace algunos dias, antes podia reproducirlos sin ningun problema, y que esto solo sucede con los streaming en vivo, ademas de eso en otros navegadores esto no sucede, pero me gustaria poder seguir usando mozilla y no verme obligado a cambiar de navegador

Tambien otro problema menor pero molesto es que a veces al ingresar a youtube las miniaturas se ven muy grandes y a veces mas pequeñas, esto sucede de manera al azar, el zoom de la pantalla es siempre el mismo, y las miniaturas cambias de manera random de tamaño al ingresar a youtube. Muchas gracias!

Ok, this happens every so often. I use a Laptop running up to date Win 11. For the last several days, when I try to get on Facebook, Firefox doesn't log me in all the way. Pages are just frozen and I can't do anything. I back out, I reboot, but nothing works so just now I logged into Edge and am just flying around Facebook! I have changed nothing so it is not me or my machine. Why does Firefox do this? I love it and have used it for years but this drives me crazy!! Thanks

I am using Tor browser, which is based on Firefox. The 'About' tab says this: 14.5.6 (based on Mozilla Firefox 128.14.0esr)

When I sign in, it tells me that: "Some of Tor Browser's security features may offer less protection on your current operating system."

And it directs me to the following page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/linux-security-warning?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

-- which directs me to set up a file called 'firefox-local' with specific contents. I have created this file; and pasted the recommended contents into it, and saved it.

I am then directed to issue the following command: sudo systemctl restart apparmor.service

-- which I have done. But that returns the following error: Job for apparmor.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apparmor.service" and "journalctl -xeu apparmor.service" for details.

systemctl status apparmor.service gives the following output: × apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles

I don't know how to make heads or tails of this. Apparently the profile failed to load. According to the file documentation, it expects firefox to be located in '/home/<USER>/bin/firefox/' but I am running a version through Snap. and I think it is installed in '/snap/firefox/6700/usr/lib/firefox/firefox'

Is that the trouble; and how do I fix it? Grateful for any assistance; sorry for the data dump.
