Hey everyone!

I just noticed that post FF's 150 update, I can no longer drag and drop folders into my DSM window. This has been a non issue for over 6 years and all of a sudden, poof. I did find that you can still to this on Safari, but long term, Mozilla and Synology need to address this. There's already a post on the Synology fourms about it and I've emailed their Support Team to see what they have to day. Posting this here in case anyone has found a workaround in the Config settings pane.

Thanks! --Brian

Can no longer "add folders" from the "Manage Bookmarks" utility

macOS Tahoe; 26.4.1 Firefox 150.0.1

I keep most of my bookmarks under the "Bookmarks Toolbar"; I have quite a few of them.

I've always enjoyed the ease and utility of the "Add Folder..." menu item in "Manage Bookmarks", but now it fails on each and every attempt to add a new folder! For example, if I select a folder under "Bookmarks Toolbar", right click that folder, and select the "Add new folder..." item from the drop-down menu Firefox simply "freezes up" - becomes totally non-responsive (spinning beach ball!).

The only way I've been able to recover is using the macOS "Activity Monitor" to "Force Quit" Firefox! If I repeat the "Add Folder..." process described above - Firefox "freezes up" again. I've tried re-booting, and that doesn't cure the problem.

Without trying to confuse the primary issue, I have noticed other "bad behavior" from Firefox:

  1. 1. Firefox "disappears" from the menu bar regularly. I can get it back by moving to another desktop, and returning to the desktop with my Firefox windows. However, it will disappear again in short order.
  1. 2. Firefox is very slow loading some of the web pages I visit regularly.

When did this start? It started very recently. I have a new (about two weeks old) MacBook Pro. The "Add Bookmark.." issue began only today, but the other issues I mentioned have been around longer.

This is frustrating... I suspect this is caused by Apple's macOS software, but of course have no way to prove that! And in the "FWIW Column": my Chrome browser has basically the same function and interface for adding folders, and it still functions flawlessly.

Selected text not overwritten when new typing begins

When I select a line of text, normally it would get deleted/overwritten when typing a new line of text, but when I select text in Firefox and begin typing again, it simply deletes the first word in the selection and keeps the rest. Is there a setting to have ALL text selected deleted/overwritten when new text is entered? Selecting one word overwrites the whole word but when an entire line to be deleted is selected, only the first word is deleted and typing begins where that word ends.

When I click certain buttons (to register for an account or place an order) either nothing happens, or it just hangs there. What settings do I need to adjust?

Lately, on certain websites, like Fox News - I open a tab in a new link and it just spins.

Today, I just tried to register an account with a glass company, and I hit the button to register, and nothing happened.

Yesterday on a different site, I went to place an order, and everything grayed out and it just stayed like that.

What do I need to adjust in order for this to stop happening?

Thanks! Shari Blauner

On all other browsers the drop down menus still show after first use, except in Firefox - where after first use they disappear and you have to go back to Home to re-show them.

I have tried the suggestions give for configuring the site iin Elementor/Wordpress but none have solved the problem and I can only assume the answer lies in Firefox settings.

Temporary "Server Not Found" error nearly every time I try to search

I have noai.duckduckgo.com set as my default search engine. Almost always (but not quite every time) when I type anything into the address/search bar, I get a page with a "Server Not Found" error. (See attached image.) Refreshing the page immediately brings up the results without issue, but I consistently get the error first.

Oddly, if I go into settings and switch to a different search engine and then switch back to duckduckgo, the issue will briefly resolve and it'll work fine for a short while... and then I start getting the error again.

Is there any way to fix this?

i have had intego vpn for some time, historically i was able to use firefox and intego vpn to access web sites only after i had executed a shut-down and restart, not good but it worked if i needed, but there is now an inability for Firefox to establish a valid connection to any website when intego vpn is active, both firefox and mac-os are up to date

sadly intego vpn performed well with chrome but chrome brings it's own problems:)

Unable to access a TP-Link EAP 770's Web Interface

I've tried to access each of 3 new TP-Link EAP 770 access points' web interface using current version of Firefox on a Mac and a Windows 11 laptop and I believe there's some security setting blocking the access. Usually, I would receive the warning with an "Advanced" button to allow you to continue to the web interface, but now I only receive a "Looks like there's a Problem with the Site" with a "Try Again" button. I had an older Windows 10 laptop with an older version of Firefox that actually allowed me to access one of the access points, but after the laptop had been online for a few minutes (and updated the Firefox version) my access started to fail again. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, JB

Since latest update when trying to view pages with artwork on them I get a message that the page is slowing down Firefox and asks me if I want to stop the page to speed up the browser. I do not want to stop the page so I click the X, but Firefox refuses to load the pages at all anyway! I can no longer view many sites due to this issue. Please get rid of this awful code! Thanks.

Firefox has been my default browser on Mac IOS for several years. I update Firefox regularly, the last being several days ago. I've recently had problems with Firefox freezing as I sometimes manually log-in to Amazon. All other tabs are affected. I have to quit, reopen.

  It is now affecting my purchases on Amazon.  I'm asked to provide a security code from my bank to complete the purchase. The code is initially accepted, but quickly the purchase is rejected by Amazon. Both Amazon and my bank said that there were no blocks on my account.
  I subsequently went to Safari, where I have no problems whatsoever with Amazon. Amazon has not asked me for a bank code to domplete the purchase.
  I think the problem is in my Settings, but it all looks okay. Cookies are cleared. Suggestions are appreciated. Thanks
