Firefox Community Forum

I would like to be able to download YouTube videos.

Is there a Firefox add-on that will allow me to download YouTube videos onto my MacMini?

I tried Video DownloadHelper and YouTube Video Downloader and didn't see any action.

Do I need to setup settings a certain way to make it work?

What are the steps to make it work?

Thank you for your assistance.

For some time now Firefox will not show some videos. Like many other users of Firefox I have to begrudgingly switch to Chrome to see the video. I have tried most of the advise on the internet and reinstalled Firefox but the problem continues. This never use to happen. All videos played. It has only started in last few months. I see many other people have same problem with Firefox. It would be nice if Firefox was to change it back to working on all videos again. Thank you.

How do I keep the Menu bar on Firefox from disappearing? When I used Firefox the menu bar showing my tabs, website url, etc was always visible in full screen. Now it disappears when I scroll down and I have to bring it back with my mouse to keep it visible. Is there a way to feel it visible full time? I can't find it in the settings menu and I have never had this problem before.

I've been getting messages labeled Moxilla Firefox that tell me to "click here to fix the error now" or "turn on your virus defender" for issues like virus attack, trojan virus, critical alert, etc. Is this a scam or do i need to click? I've been clicking on "Dismiss" to make them go away but they keep coming back. Getting 50-100 a day.

The site is BBC iPlayer so from my understanding should be readily available and am signed into. i have previously and have had to log in on occasion. If I am now having to reset numerous passwords and other settings then there is more invasion of privacy by dicating what I can and cannot see - my PC, although old, can handle large cookies and has done so before. This leads to the question of how the browser cache is arranged , as it appears that I am struggling to reset and install exemptions ( rather a lot!!).

I just want to restore to where I was a week ago when I had no problems

"TWP - Translate Web Pages" Extension It should be considered very dangerous. I have been using this extension for many years and I have experienced endless RAM leaks because of this extension. If let's say I have 64 GB RAM or 96 GB RAM, the extension will use all the resources of the computer in a few seconds all RAM + all page file memory + all RTX 4060 8 GB memory. Such behavior is similar to some malicious applications, which ends with a System crash "Unknown Hard Error" Extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/traduzir-paginas-web/

I am on a school site and frequently download Word documents. Prior to a recent update ( this summer) the files went to a download manager and I could either work o the document or continue to work on the current webpage. However, sionce the update, the docuemnt is saved but inthe process I am kicked off the current webpage. Should I revert back to a previous version of Firefox or is there a workaround or patch? Thanks

For past few weeks, I am facing a problem, whenever I try to open an YouTube video from google search it dose not play. When I click on play/pause button or press spacebar, the video plays for one frame and then again pauses. But the video plays fine, If I search youtube.com and open a video from there, I am don't understand why this is happening, I tried restarting firefox and I also restarting my pc, but that is also not working.

I want to disable the Tab hover preview and I follow the instructions per Mozilla Support, which are:

Enter about:config in the address bar and set browser. tabs. hoverPreview. enabled = false.

When I enter about.config and search for "set browser. tabs. hoverPreview. enabled = false" it comes up as false. And there doesn't seem to be a need or way to save that setting, already set to false. But it still has the hover preview.

How do I get rid of the preview mode?

Thanks. Dennis dennis@denniswilder.com

I use Libre Wolf. In the last week I started having problems with video playback on YouTube. The video is constantly interrupted or the image freezes, but the sound continues to play. This is not always the case, but about half of the time. I have tried many options, including disabling plugins and changing the resolution, but nothing helped. I have no problems with the speed of the connection. When I changed the browser (to Opera), then the problem with playback immediately disappeared. So the problem is in the browser. Tell me how to solve it.

no matter what i do, every website is now dark. I want it turned off and it won't. Since this can't be turned off, how do i switch all my bookmarks to another browser? Chrome, yahoo, etc all of those don't have the dark background

I use the est edition of firefox 115.15.0 64bit and after the last update i can't change resolution to any youtube video. Why is that happening and how i can fix it?
