Over the last 6 months, and increasing number of websites don't open on Firefox. I've noticed it most consistently on any of the wikipedia/wikimedia pages, but it's not just those. When I type in an address and press return, or click on a link, the browser just acts as if nothing has happened. There does not show me the loading symbole. If I ask it to open a new tab with the site, the address appears on the tab, but the page itself is just black. Other browsers have no problem loading the same sites. I am on a mac, and using a VPN. Restarting the browser doesn't help, though restarting the computer sometimes does.

Thank you,

Hello!

I've been facing a problem in Firefox that has been going on for about 5 years: the multimedia keys on my HyperX alloy Core (membrane) keyboard only work ~33% of the time.

Problem details: - In other browsers (Chrome, Edge) and programs (VLC, Spotify) the keys work perfectly. - The problem occurs specifically in Firefox, regardless of the OS or driver version (I reinstalled Windows, browser, updated drivers). - I've tried the following solutions (without results): - Updating Firefox to the latest version. - Disabling all extensions. - Resetting the browser settings. - Updating HyperX software/drivers.

Additional information: - OS: Windows 11 latest update

- Firefox: Latest version instaled

This question relates to version 134.0.2 (64-bit). This morning I started Firefox and found that many of my bookmarks were missing. On trying to restore from the program automatic backups, I get the repeated message "Unable to process the backup file." On examination, the files, while not in ASCII, appear to contain ASCII text strings recognizable from the bookmark descriptions. They are not, at least, empty. Unfortunately, I do not have an HTML format backup. Any idea why none of the backups work or what options I have? Thanks in advance.

Hello all! Recently I have run into a problem when using the zen browser on my Fedora laptop that I have been unable to resolve despite my best efforts ... specifically, when I double-click on a web-site I have bookmarked and stored under "Bookmarks Menu" it does not come up unless I manually select a container to open it in. I am using Firefox sync so as to keep zen and firefox in sync in both my laptop and desktop and firefox on my Driod. I have reinstalled zen from scratch, I have signed out fo sync and tested, I have disabled my "Facebook Container" extention, and I have attempted to set a default container for the workspace I am in, but nothing seems to change the problem I am seeing.

Do you have any suggestions as to how I can simply click on on bookmarks and see the website without any further clicks [like I used to do up until recently]? Is there any additional info I can give you? Thanks for your time!!! - John C

Every time I try to view a pdf file on Firefox I can view the file but in the lower right 1/4 of the screen I get a graphic of a page with shaded areas representing lines with writing on them. There is a type of pen cursor moving along the line.

This happens with different pdfs - from the internet and from my saved files. This doesn't happen on another computer with Firefox.

I've deleted and redownloaded Firefox an number of times, also tried troubleshoot mode - no improvement. Virus scanned, restarted a number of times.

Pdfs work on edge and chrome and reader with no problem.

I have a screenshot.

Any Ideas? Thanks

This is a recent problem. I normally watch YouTube while I play games on my phone by splitting the screen. Recently YouTube has been unable to play videos on the smallest window size. This was possible a week ago. I have attached an image of the size at which this occurs. This is a problem large enough that I will no longer be using the browser if it continues. Half and half screen size still works, however it doesn't work for my purpose.

Previously, picture in picture worked as intended, with hitting the home button playing my videos no problem. Now, at least on YouTube, it displays the box where the video should be playing but instead of playing, it just shows the top of the web page. The video does not play, it remains paused no matter what you do. It doesn't seem to affect every website, as I tested it with the iMDB video player and that worked without a hitch. It makes YouTube unusable in picture in picture. This started a few days ago, and no matter what I try, I have been unable to resolve it. I've included an image of what the issue looks like over a game, but it looks like that no matter which app you're in.

When using the PiP feature is there a way to switch whether it pauses the video when closing the PiP player?

Often if i want the audio to continue but dont want the popout player there and if I press the close button it will just stop the audio. If I select the PiP window and use the shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + ] the audio will continue playing as I want it however this is inconvenient and requires using the keyboard, is there any way to change it so that closing the popout player doesn't stop the tab from playing audio?

I am experiencing an issue with the Picture-in-Picture (PiP) functionality in Firefox on Ubuntu. Unlike on Windows, where the PiP window automatically appears when switching tabs or pages, this does not happen on my system.

When I manually activate the PiP feature by clicking the button, the window does appear; however, it is placed behind the browser window and remains at the lowest level among other open windows. This causes it to be obscured by other applications and requires me to manually bring it to the front and adjust its position every time.

Is there a way to automate this process or resolve the issue so that the PiP window behaves as expected (i.e., stays on top of other windows and works seamlessly)? Please let me know if there are any settings, extensions, or workarounds that could address this problem.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I have been using youtube in firefox mobile for ages, and commonly use picture in picture. However as of 2 days ago, when I try to use picture in picture, it pauses the video and instead is displaying what is essentially a PiP of the browser/url bar (see image).

I've tried:

  • Re-installing firefox
  • Deleting cookies and cache
  • Disabling Extensions
  • Disabling and Re-enabling PiP in my apps

I'm running out of things to try, and would love if anyone is familiar with what may be causing this!
