Characters dissapearing, missing, garbled only in Firefox. Seems to be ok in troubleshooting mode. This only happens in Firefox so it appears to be isolated. As you hover over links is when it happens the most. I have the latest version installed and was just loaded on a new system.

There is one site, where my IRA is located, ("mystreeetscape.com:") where I am never able to open my statements or retrieve tax documents. I get the message "Please wait while we retrieve your documents" but the circle just keeps going around forever. This has persisted for quite a while, and I would rather not download and use another browser if Firefox is able to work for this. I have not had this problem with any other bank accounts or financial places - eg: Fidelity is fine, etc.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

I used the password manager feature years and go to it probably 5+ times a week. I went to look for a password today and there are only 5 accounts in there. Trying not to panic I went to my computer to see if it was just my iOS device that wasn't showing them all for some reason, but only the same five accounts are in there too. When I first setup my ipad, all the accounts in the password vault sync'd but they all showed empty so I never bothered looking them up on there. I'm wondering if somehow the ipad's failed sync caused all the other passwords to be corrupted and removed from my account somehow. The 5 accounts I do have are all new accounts I've made over the past month, and I've used it a ton since the old ones. Any ideas for how I could get them back?

I use Duck duck go as my default search engine. I've noticed that after the last couple of updates, the default has changed to Google. This has not happened before. There must be a bug somewhere that is causing this to happen in the new version of Firefox.

Not sure the best way to describe the issue, but it seems like Firefox is not able to or doesn't clear memory when streaming Hulu for a while. It just slowly accumulates memory usage and eventually just hits a point where the tab crashes and doesn't continue until you close and reopen the site.

Is there a way to mitigate this or is it a known issue where it can't clear memory?

I have 32GBs of ram (about half occupied system wide), but Firefox appears to cap out globally between 7 and 8GBs, then Hulu freezes, forcing me to close the tab and go back to its home page.

I have constantly crashing tabs with FF 121.0.1 32-bit on Debian (happening since at least 120, and probably 114 or perhaps 115 ESR), and about:crashes has no listing of any tab crash reports; this hasn't been an issue until the most recent version. I'd like to report them so that they could hopefully be fixed, but reporting doesn't seem to be happening? Thanks.

I don't want to get the 'Add Bookmark' popup prompt when I right click -> Bookmark Link, I just want it to bookmark the link.

Unchecking 'Show editor when saving' doesn't disable this popup.

I use 'right click -> Bookmark Link' a lot, so would really appreciate a fix, thanks :)

In my ongoing battles with Firefox which no longer offers a painless way to use the internet, in Reddit's moderation page, messages are flashed up for a frame and then disappear and I'm told there's nothing to display. However, in Chrome this page shows the messages and I can use the page correctly.

Anyone else having this trouble?

Today, with the newest but 1 version of Firefox, and an Mac running newest Sonoma,

every time I click on a line indicating it;s a link to another web page, I get 404.

Alway, it keeps telling me that Firefox could not update automatically/

Can anyone tell me how to stop the cancellation of links to another url?

Today when I opened my browser, my shortcuts were replaced with Chinese ones. How did this happen and where did my old ones go?

My laptop was sleeping, and not restarted. I had reopened my firefox.

These Chinese ones do not show in my list of shortcuts. (pictures below)

I do not use Chinese language sites

Malware scan turning up nothing (yet)

What is the best way to restore my shortcuts and make sure random ones do not come back.

Cheers!

Stuck with this hourglass logo on tabs since the latest update v121.0

Now what I have noted is that this is causing the pages to load slow. Only ublock extension is installed, tried all dns settings but the result is the same. Is anyone facing the same?

These pages say to change the value and this hourglass thing will be removed

But I cannot see any option to change the value on that location

What to do now?

Whenever I start Firefox it loads up on the upper left corner in a minimized version and I have to double click the maximizing button to get everything right. I tried the tip of deleting the .js file in the Profile folder of the browser. I did that 5 times and the problem still occurs. Everything is up to date. What's wrong?

I have many folders and sub folders and before the new upgrade each sub folder would show the number of new messages. Now only the main sub folder shows and if there are messages only the first level local sub folders show new messages not the second level and third level.
