Hi all, I've been having this issue for a while. I am unable to view streams on YouTube or Twitch (Twitch will show streams as offline, whereas YouTube will not even show streams), and I have encountered a new issue where YouTube allows only 360p on videos. I have used the HTML5 Video Capability Test and seem to have an issue in that department (images attached). Even in troubleshooting mode, the issue persists. Any help is appreciated.

When going to mail.yahoo.com, I get this error message:

The page isn't redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to guce.yahoo.com. • This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

and this is the URL that I am redirected to: https://guce.yahoo.com/consent?brandType=nonEu&gcrumb=bWAMXTs&done=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.yahoo.com%2F

It works OK with Chrome, I just do not like Chrome! I made changes to allow cookies and that made no difference.

I recently upgraded from Window 7 to windows 10. Ever since, the spacing between the bookmarks has significantly increased. I read several post about this and they all seem to be looking for something in Firefox. I think it has to do with something in windows 10, not Firefox. Any ideas? I've already done the Density/Compact thing. Slight improvement, but not anything like it was under Window 7.

For example this page, https://yle.fi/a/3-11868513 , causes my Firefox to go unresponsive for maybe 10-20 seconds at a time, when scrolling up and down. Windows works fine. It's not the only one, I have found some other on that same news site, which use the same kind of construct for a page that contains both video and text.

When I open Firefox in troubleshooting mode, page works fine. But in normal mode, even if I disable all my extensions (except search engines), page still hangs.

On the other hand, I haven't encountered this kind of behaviour in normal mode in any other pages or sites. So it may be something very spesific that site uses on those particular pages. So it is a minor problem but because disabling all extensions did not help, I thought it might be worth bringing up.

Lately when opening multiple tabs in a folder on E-Bay, often this error msg occurs on the later opening tabs (folder of 60 tabs)

E-Bay says try Chrome browser, but that browser does not import the folders needed.

Years ago doing this solved slowness problems: Control panel/Internet Options/General/Browsing History/Settings/set disk space to use to 1024.

The browsing history would be deleted before the computer would be turned off.

E-Bay says try Chrome browser, but that browser does not import the specific folders needed.

Edge used to not allow folders with tabs.

I have divided the folder of 132 tabs, where this problem started, into two folders of 72 and 60 tabs, still happens about every fifth time the folder would be opened.

Any fix from Mozilla?

I have enclosed a screenshot showing what happens when I want to go to a new tab on the two computers I use most often. One is my desktop which has Windows 10 Home. The other is my laptop which has Windows 10 Pro. The Windows 10 Home was installed most recently and is the latest version of Windows 10, my tech guy told me; and also the latest version of Firefox 123.0.1. The laptop version of Windows 10 is older. The Firefox version is also 123.0.1.

My hope is that there is a setting I have not uncovered that lets me put some kind of mark on a new tab, as my laptop has had for a few years. This makes it very easy to open. The newer, later Windows version but same Firefox 123.0.1 on the desktop must be right-clicked in the space to the right of any open site, and then the user must scroll down to the "New Tab" line and click on it. Obviously this requires my user clicks and more time, simply to get a new tab that gives me a blank site that I prefer.

I appreciate whatever guidance or suggestions anyone can give.

I created a one column spreadsheet with 91 entries in Excel. Then I did a "save as" and choose CSV (comma delimited). One the receiving website, I chose "Browse for file", selected the CSV file I juts created and clicked "Upload". I got an error saying it wasn't a CSV file and could not be uploaded. I tried it again (same file) using Microsoft Edge and it worked just fine. I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and got the same failure as before. I'm running Windows 10 ver 22H2. I really don't want to use Edge. Is there a fix for this?

The discord web app detects my microphone input, but it does not detect the output. I've tried troubleshooting my earphones and using the device speakers. I've also tried checking the windows sound system, the browser permissions as well as clearing cache. I've gone over this with the discord staff and they said that the firefox team would be able to handle the situation better, as the problem does not persist between different browsers.

I saw a message that my Add-ons were disabled, and when I checked the Add-ons Manager , each of my many Add-ons had a message similar to: "1Password – Password Manager could not be verified for use in Firefox and has been disabled. "

Some searches in the forums suggest that that this can be caused my a certificate at Mozilla expiring, I seem to be the only one with this issue at the moment. All of my Add-ons came through the Mozilla store .

I am using version 123.0.1 (64-bit) on OpenSUSE Leap 15.5, and as far as I can see all of my updates are current (and from the official sources.)

What should I do next? I expect I need to wait for a certificate update or something at Mozilla, but if/when that happens how do I verify it did and re-enable my add-ons?
