Hello all:

Just downloaded version 140 and ran into an immediate "visual/appearance" problem with regard to the background color(s) of the sidebar bookmarks view. Many themes now have totally dark sidebar colors and not readable (see screenshot image upload with this posting). I always have my bookmarks (almost 1200 of them) displayed in my sidebar, and this is the first time an issue like this has arisen with a Firefox update.

To remedy this scenario, I must use very light colored themes that have a white background when you bring up the sidebar bookmarks. If not, everything is totally dark and unreadable.

Any ideas or help on this one?

All of a sudden, the text in my Bookmarks bar has turned black making it unreadable on the black background. Any idea why this happened and how I may revert the text back to white? Thank you for your help.

Several weeks ago Firefox worked normally for me. I left for most of the day and when I got home Firefox no longer worked at all. Everything on my home page was gone and when I typed in websites - such as my e-mail program or Facebook, nothing ever came up. I'm not super browser savvy, but I opened the menu and under help was "trouble shooting mode". I didn't know what that was but figured nothing much more could go wrong with Firefox, so I chose that. I had to rebuild the websites I had in a row on the middle of the page. I didn't lose bookmarks, but everything else was different. So I left it that way.

Earlier today, Firefox wanted me to do another update. I thought maybe by agreeing to that, things might return to normal. Noooooooo. It's no better whatever. Now I don't know how to get out of troubleshooting mode to know if anything will work normally again.

I am seriously considering switching browsers, but I have a LOT of stuff bookmarked and that would be very intensive to build all those book marks in another browser.

Upon upgrading to v140.0 on macOS Sonoma 14.3 (23D56), YouTube no longer renders.

All add-ons (ad-blockers, development tools, accessibility tools, etc.) were removed and still the same non-rendering as of this evening June 24, 2025.

Hi, can someone please to me how to turn off automatic updates on Firefox Version 140.0 (64-bit)? Firefox's own support page, "https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-options-preferences-and-settings?as=u&utm_source=inproduct", is incorrect. It states that, "Firefox Updates Here you can check your update history or change update settings for Firefox.", but you can not change the update setting, (see attachment).

It is really annoying it updates while you are using it, ruining your experience as you can no longer refresh tabs or open new ones forcing you to restart it.

With the latest update, no matter if I've got it set to light or dark, the sidebar text and background are almost the same color. It's unreadable. There is no way to change just the sidebar, and it ignores the light/dark setting.

I want to use the new search bar, but my Firefox browser shows the old address and search bars. I have been upgraded to Firefox 140.0. I am using Windows 11 on a desktop. How do I make the change? Thank you.

When I click on NY Times link, I get this message: You have been blocked from The New York Times because we suspect that you're a robot. I'm just an old guy with a low tolerance level for tech glitches. Any help greatly appreciated!

I called NYT Support, which tells me it must be a Firefox issue since I can open in Chrome, Safari. I thought it might because I have the Enhanced Tracking Protection box checked, but unchecking does nothing.

Out of ideas.

I want to make myMSN ( URL is www.msn.com/?pc=U506&ocid=U506DHp ) my Firefox Home Page. I have tried all the suggested methods but apparently I'm not doing something correctly because none of them have worked. The closest I've come to success is pasting the URL in the Home Page option in Firefox Settings, but I can't get it to stay there. There is no "SAVE" button to click on. My old computer (running Windows 10) had no trouble setting myMSN as my Firefox Home Page but this new computer running Windows 11 is making it extremely hard (impossible so far). I have tried following suggested methods step-by-step but without success. Please help.

I am technically challenged in my 80s. I have always used Firefax bookmarks. Somehow I can not pull them up today. It seems they have been erased. I have an apple computer.

Recently I have been unable to go to websites where I have had accounts for years. I can no longer access sites like Chewy, Etsy, and even Pinterst. On the latest failure to sign in to Etsy the message I got is "Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker" I don't want to learn another browser. Please understand I'm a senior so not as savy as you young folks. My Firefox browser is 140.0 so it is up to date

Has support for X11 been removed?

After the last Firefox update, my bookmarks list only highlights the thumbnail image. The descriptive text which was previously in white colored text is no longer colored but faded and not readable. How do I resolve this problem? Zak

YouTube videos encoded at 60 frames per second are extremely choppy in Firefox only. Microsoft Edge plays the same videos perfectly.

I have deleted my profile and reinstalled Firefox, updated graphics driver to the latest version, and toggled hardware acceleration on and off. Nothing helps.

The release notes for Firefox version 140.0.1 indicate the extension button can can now be removed from the toolbar.the noes say:

"Firefox Extensions: Customize your toolbar with the option to remove the extensions shortcut, giving you more control over your browser. When the button is hidden, you can access the extensions panel again at any time from the Firefox menu by clicking the Extensions menu item."

I still cannot drag the button down and out of sight by customising the toolbar.

Suggestions welcome.
