I've tried EVERYTHING I can think of to fix this issue. When 'trying' to open a YouTube video in Firefox, I'm 'informed' that I'm offline - try reconnecting (or something like that). I'm NOT offline. Three other browsers have NO problem opening these YouTube videos; it's only Firefox. Can someone PLEASE come up with a REAL resolve to this issue? I don't want to give up on Firefox and go back to Chrome. But this issue is VERY annoying. Thanks to anyone who can provide constructive resolution(s). AL R.

For some reason when I try to download a screenshot of [this tweet] it fails every time; I tested it and it's just that tweet specifically. This has never happened before and I assume it's just a bug since copy-pasting still works. Any help with this?

Hi Just updated Linux Mint from 20.3 to vs 21. Firefox Help now shows FF version Mint - 001-1.0 121.0.1

Also shows that FF updates disabled by Administrator.

Is this the latest version for LM 21 ? And how do I enable updates automatically?

Thanks

I can login from other web browsers, but not Firefox. What's going on?

When I try to login as I have always dine in the past, this is what comes up: https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/

But then absolutely nothing happens. Please advise.

I have a personal ' writing email' template in Yahoo mail which I use for a specific community. It contains relevant information which saves me from having to type it in everytime I email the community. However, of late when using 'Compose' the template appears but when I try typing below the salutation I cannot use the 'Enter' button to move the cursor down the page to create the body text. Consequently my emails are just one line of type with no paragraphing.

Why is this?

Hello, once every morning I start 14 tabbed Internet pages. The pages do not fully render unless they are in focus. Is there an About:Config or other setting where I can get all 14 pages to fully and completely render without getting each one into focus one by one?

This is a very slow process and is annoying over time. I believe there was a time where Firefox would render all tabs/pages without getting each one into focus.

Thanks in Advance.

my browser continues to show symbols instead of words. I troubleshot the font issue and it does not seem to be that. this is on a macbook pro and the browser is updated. I deleted the browser and reinstalled it. which worked for a day but then everything went back to showing symbols. it is intermittent in that sometimes it will show the real words and then a few hours later is will show this.
