Firefox Community Forum

Since one of your updates, all of my photo files now have your logo on them and I can see any of the thousands of photos I have What the hell did you put in your update? JUST STOP SENDING UPDATES EVERY DAMN TIME I TURN AROUND.

For many years, I've used a utility called DropZone in my menubar, which (among other things) allows documents to be automatically sorted into user-created locations (e.g., folders in the Finder).

Last night, suddenly, each time I drag a photo from Firefox to DropZone, a large window called "Action Console" opens, displaying a bunch of text. Here's a typical message that's displayed:

[Launching task with command line: runner.rb task-26498]

Task description file task-26498:

ACTION: "/Applications/- Misc. apps/Dropzone 4.app/Contents/Actions/Move Files.dzbundle" EVENT: "dragged" VARIABLE: "support_folder" "/Users/mervynwarren/Library/Application Support/Dropzone" VARIABLE: "dragged_type" "files" VARIABLE: "app_version" "4.80.66" VARIABLE: "apple_silicon" "1" VARIABLE: "os_version" "26.0.0" VARIABLE: "path" "/Users/mervynwarren/Pictures/iTunes art" VARIABLE: "tmp_folder" "/var/folders/7l/ldzhrwyx1v1dy2tky3c1_y640000gn/T/"

[Task completed]

Ironically, although the last line says "Task completed," the task I was attempting to perform (moving a photo into a given folder) is in fact NOT comleted at all.

Further observations:

This behavior is not displayed in Safari. In Safari, images continue to be moved to the desired folder, as intended.

I googled "action console keeps opening in Firefox," and I performed 4 troubleshooting steps that google AI suggested (including launching Firefox into troubleshooting mode). Unfortunately, in troubleshooting mode, the behavior persists, which suggests that this has nothing to do with any add-ons.

I also created a new, test profile—but even in the test profile, the behavior persists.

So, I'm stumped. After years of using Firefox, this behavior has appeared out of nowhere—and I cannot figure out why, nor how to fix it.

Any further suggestions?

I would like to control the animation speed of .GIF (ie on Wikipedia). I would like to stop, manual single step or play frames one per duration (ie 1 frame every 2 sec or 1 frame every .5 sec). I would also like to control whether it repeats. I would like to freeze at any point then resume playing given the above settings.

How do I do this?

PS: There may be other types of animation files which the above control could apply to as well.

Thank you kindly for any guidance!

I am writing an email with two photo attachments. Preview will not work (open) for me to double check the correct file is being sent. It will, however, open a file with only text.

On any website i've tried (this site, artfight, bsky) using a cropping tool that the website provides for image uploads causes the image to corrupt and become blank. My profile image at the moment is an example of this, i tried to upload a picture and it got replaced by a blank black image because it required cropping

Not sure I selected the proper category, but I've been coding websites since for longer than I like to admit.. (About 1998 memory serves me right..).. Anyhow, at this point I maintain 3 websites.. Here's one of them: https://www.pbl-sn3.com As you will see there are many pages involved.. I used to able to right click on a photo or graphic and Firefox would tell me what it was, its filename, and even it's size.. But no more.. This was a really handy feature that kept me a Firefox user ever since I discovered Firefox..

Now, instead of right clicking on it (so I can find it easily on my PC using a great little program called "Everything" (see https://www.voidtools.com/ which is amazing in its own right..), I'm stuck viewing the Page Source, finding the file in all the jumble of code, etc. etc. etc... (Yeah, I can right click on the image and open it in a new tab, but it tells me nothing about its SIZE either.. Dang!

So am I the only guy that's ever complained about this? (I recently downloaded Google Chrome which appears to be a less-than-perfect knockoff of Firefox and also lacks this "feature".. But my bank likes it whereas they would no longer allow me to do online banking with Firefox.. A pesky but unrelated issue here, I know..)

Anyhow, if there's a quick fix for my problem, I sure would appreciate a how-to implement it! Thanks for "listening"! - Ol' Bill in California

I just bought a new logitech brio pro 4k and tested it with google meets in Firefox. The problem is that Firefox seems not to pick up the 4K camera and runs with minimum settins.

I don't have the issue with Facetime or with Google Meets on Chrome. Just Firefox gives me a blurry camera image.

How can this be fixed? I am using this question in lack of a proper way to file a bug report with Firefox.

Thanks

I'm experiencing an issue when copying PNG images only in the Firefox browser. Here's the problem: When I copy a PNG image and paste it into Photoshop or any other program, I get an image with a black background.

This didn’t happen before, but it started occurring after a few recent updates.

In other browsers, I get a “normal” PNG image with a transparent background.

Only the first picture is displayed on web pages such as: https://www.military.com/daily-news/investigations-and-features/2026/02/13/army-major-killed-soviet-soldier-was-last-american-die-cold-war.html

Do I have a setting wrong?

Can someone explain why my PHOTO ALBUMS are not showing up on a website where I'm attempting to upload photos from these albums from my MacBook Air? It does allow me to drag and drop, but the actual albums are not showing up when I 'BROWSE." On my iphone and ipad the individual albums are showing up when I browse in the website to upload. It's only on my MacBook Air that the albums are not showing up. All my photos are there, but not the individual albums.

Everytime I drag a GIF image from one tab to an upload box in another, the file uploads as image.png.

I'd love to find a way to solve this so I don't have to go through the whole rigamaroll of downloading a file, uploading a file, and then deleting said file from my downloads folder.

Thanks!
