Running Linux-Mint on my laptop. Trying to run an epson ET-2400 ink jet Printer. Need Driver for printer. I have seen some information about software that needs to be added to "talk" to the printer but I cannot find it now. Please someone help.

I'm a therapist and within the last week (maybe since an update?) when I try to do a telehealth session from any website - Ensora Mental Health (my EHR), Simple Practice, Sessions by Psychology Today, Google Meet, Zoom - the client can see me but can't hear me, and I can hear them but can't see them (black screen).

I've checked all video and microphone permissions, Microsoft and all drivers are updated and mic and camera are functioning (they can see me). I tried changing the enhanced tracking to add exceptions for the sites (didn't work).

Please advise.

I've been looking at firewall logs for my client and router software firewalls. My 3rd party firewall flags repeated outgoing TCP packets to IP 34.149.100.209 as coming from Firefox and 'Restricted', although restricted is the firewall apps syntax. When I look at the router firewall on WAN it was seeing the same IP outgoing. These packets only originate when Firefox (latest version) opens. Perhaps there's nothing to worry about or it's there to poll for those who want to select a Google search engine? Anyway, I've added a rule in the router to block the IP, although I think Google use other IPs.

There is plenty of web discussion to REMOVE restricted from Firefox but I want to make sure 'Restricted' in my case means BLOCKED, is that possible or do I misunderstand what restricted means? Thanks

I use an iMac and Macbook Pro. Autofill that used to work is no longer working on both of these when I go to USPS.com and sign up for updates on packages. It use to fill in my name on the top line and on the bottom line, it would fill in my email.

What can I do to get this feature back? It stopped working around the beginning of 2025.

Thank you, Martha.

This will be a long question and in 2 parts, so I'll apologize up front.

1. I am running FireFox on my 11-year old MacBook and love it (MacOS Mojave version 10.14.6). However, my printer just crapped out, and my new HP 9120e requires MacOS Big Sur (11.x.x) or later. If I update to that OS, will I still be able to use FireFox? If so, where do I find it (see Question 2, below)?

2. Since my old MacBook is clearly reaching the end of it's life and my Excel and Word apps are also ancient, I am trying to transfer all my stuff onto a "New" MacBook that is running MacOS Monterey version 12.0.1. However, the "New" computer (I will not say "improved") has been a reliability nightmare and I just had it in for service. They wiped my disk clean to install the Monterey OS. So, other than Safari, I have no browser (or anything else for that matter). When I go to the App Store to download FireFox, and don't see it anywhere. Help!

while ysing the New York Times i tried to open the Athletic Section of the App and this was the result....Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)....I cannot find information, can you help

I used the CSS animation property called animation-timeline , which is written as:

element{ animation-time: view(); }

When I view the webpage on Chrome, Edge, Opera, and even on Phoenix browser, the animation works.

It is only on Firefox that the animation does not work. I even added the Vendor-prefix of " -moz-animation-timeline " to the CSS property, and it still didn't work on Firefox, while it is working on all other browsers.

The CAN I USE website ( https://caniuse.com/?search=animation-timeline ) tells me that Firefox does not support it at all.

It however said that I can enable it, by setting "layout.css.scroll-driven-animations.enabled" to true.

1.) I don't know what that means.

2.) Would my website's users be able to see the animation on their Firefox browser, if we assume that I make this setting ?

3.) I am using Firefox version 138.0.3 (64-bit) : What can I do to see that both I and users of my website are able to see this animation on Firefox ?

Regards.

Changed behavior of autofill is a small thing. A few weeks ago, I could enter the first few letters of a site and then down arrow to choose one from the list. Down arrow no longer works here.

A significantly bigger issue allowing a website to open a window or tab or popup. There used to be two buttons when this happens, allow and always allow. Always allow is no longer a choice. I have to click allow every single time I go to that web site. Since two of those sites are the enrollment and learning management systems where I work, I'm doing that 20 times a day. If disappearing the always allow button was a design decision, it was a bad one.

Hi!

My default search engine has always been Firefox for years. Since the last Firefox update, when I select + and get to a New Tab, the search engine changes to Google.

I am on Windows 10. I want the New Tab to stay with Firefox. Any tips?

Thank you for your help! TS

I'm trying to have Google.ca as my homepage, but Firefox won't let me. It keep reverting back to Google.com Please help. Claude Hamel [edited] @gmail.com

Firefox closed the browser for an automatic update two days ago, and when it came up back after the update all my open windows and tabs simply disappeared. History tab was reset to a blank page, there was no trace of anything. I tried the access through 'Menu / History / Recently closed windows' or '.../ Recently closed tabs' and they were both blank, empty, zero, nada ... This is the first time it happens to me, and I'm surprised and disappointed that such a predictable and basic bug shows up on an update.

I have a couple dozen tabs I use for task f-ups, it' unproductive and annoying to get them all back up to work. If this happens again I doubt I keep using Firefox as my preferred browser.

1. Anybody else suffering the same issue?
2. Is there a cure for the problem?

After the last couple of Firefox updates, my settings have been automatically changed. This has not happened until recently How can I stop Firefox from changing my settings when it updates? OS is Windows 11. TYIA!

In the last few days, after some minutes of usage, parts of Firefox become unclickable:

- I can still click on tabs to change tabs. - When hovering over the cross button to close a tab, it changes appearance as it should. Clicking the button does nothing. Ctrl+w still closes the button. - Clicking on the address bar does nothing. - Cannot click on back, forward, refresh buttons. - Cannot click on any add-ons. - Cannot click on preferences. - Can click on the button to open a new tab. There, I can enter an address. Once the page has loaded, address bar becomes unclickable again. - Bookmarks toolbar is still working as expected. - Keyboard shortcuts (ctrl+t, ctrl-w, ctrl-l) still work as expected.

I'm running ``` Mozilla Firefox 138.0 20250428130755 20250428130755 ```

on Manjaro 25.0.1 with GNOME 48
