When using Google Meet in Firefox browser, I am only able to share my window, not my screen. When I choose "share screen", it says I must change my permissions - but my permissions settings have not changed and this is a problem I have started having only in the last few days.

I do not know where I am supposed to change these permissions settings.

I have checked my permissions in settings > privacy & security > permissions - there is nothing there about screen sharing.

I have checked my permissions in padlock > connection > more information > permissions and the only options I have for screen sharing are "always ask" (default), which is set. The only other option I have is "block" which is not set.

My Firefox browser is up-to-date.

Can anyone help? Thanks!

Hello,

I checked the troubleshoot and gave all the necesarry permissions on my Mac for Google Meet to use my screen (allowed audio, video and screen recording). Nevertheless, I cannot manage to share my screen on Google Meet. As shown in the screenshot, it offers the option to share my whole screen (I cannot select a window or a tab...) but for my audience neither this is working.

Could you please help me fix this?

Many thanks in advance!

I've noticed recently after system reboots that Firefox forgets the "Open previous windows and tabs" setting and restarts with only a blank tab. I've confirmed that this setting is ticked prior to the reboot. I know I can restore the session under History but why isn't Firefox remembering this setting and re-opening the windows & tabs like previously?

Running Firefox 135.0.1 and Mac Sequoia 15.3 (but has been happening in recent previous versions of both).

My MacOS is 10.13.6 (cannot go higher on this machine). Since update to 15.119.0esr, embedded map graphics are no longer showing. The map graphic sub-window instead shows "Sorry, we have no imagery here" in several places across the map. I am getting the same for multiple websites, including the location maps in Zillow.com . Google Maps works fine, and I think the problem is isolated to maps embedded in pages. Did not have this issue last week, prior to updating to 15.119.0esr. This is SO BAD that if it's not fixable, I want to revert to 15.118...

In Firefox, and only in Firefox, I get 'Failed to verify your identity' on these sites. I have updated MacOS and Firefox, rebooted, tried a different DNS, and disabled all of my extensions. With extensions disabled I don't get the error, but the login site won't accept my login at all. See the attached image. I can't think of anything else to try.

hello all,

I'm running Firefox 115.18.0esr For a month now, tabs have crashed constantly. That is, *every single tab* crashes sooner or later and usually it's sooner. It's making Firefox unusable.

I know my desktop is old and my OS is considered obsolete, but still, I'm a fan of Firefox and want it to work. I'm running OS 10.13.6 (which I can no longer update) on a iMac mid-2011.

Any advice much appreciated.

we have 2 imacs here:

imac A just had OS catalina installed and firefox is shown as up to date running v 115.15. However, while it loads the apple tv website the site remains unresponsive to input.

imac B is runnning OS Sonoma and firefox is shown as up to date running v 130.01. There is no problem with the apple tv site, which responds to input.

So: why can't I update firefox to the latest version on imac A and why is the apple tv website unresponsive when it works on imac B running an older OS?

How come Google Meet takes me to a 404 page on Firefox only (dont have this issue on any other browser)

In recent weeks when I open my Macbook and go to https://meet.google.com, the page that loads says "404. That’s an error. The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know." The issue is only on Firefox and not Chrome or Safari. When I see the error page, I look at the URL and it has the word "unsupported": https://meet.google.com/unsupported?meetingCode=landing&ref=https://meet.google.com/landing

So I dragged firefox to the trash, reinstalled and the issue persisted. I do not have a VPN. I'm using my own Wifi at home. If I switch to my desktop computer (m2 mac ultra) and go to the same Google Meet URL, I don't get a 404 error on firefox, however no one can hear my microphone any more as of 1 month ago, when I didn't have this issue in the past and I've done everything that everyone has told me to (in order to fix it) and nothing has worked.

Laptop: MacBook Pro 2021, MacOS Sequoia 15.0 Firefox: 13.0.1 (64 bit)
