Youtube autoplay stopped to work properly.

After previous video next video really starts automatically then, may be after half a second or second, the video stops and returns to intro splash screen of the video. One must press Play to start this next video again. I tried next steps: 1. In Firefox Privacy and security settings / Autoplay: I allowed audio and video autoplay for all sites 2. On the left side of URL string for Youtube site I pressed the button and also allowed audio and video autoplay for the site. The image on this button changed. I reloaded Youtube - no effect, reloaded Firefox and Youtube - all the same.

3. I checked Youtube autoplay in Microsoft Edge browser - it works correctly.

What should be done in Firefox to restore autoplay? I don't remember when this problem appeared.

A data breach happened in April 2019 which you reported to me today, 2/4/2023, but I have changed all passwords in the last month or so reported at risk, am I safe now that it is almost 4 years after that breach?

Basically.

I see a lot of options on how to disable Javascript context menus on sites, for purpose.

I want the opposite - certain sites, most notably Google Workspace and Nextcloud, have a very useful Javascript context menu for things like tweaking format or renaming files.

But when I right-click in Firefox, the browser's own context menu pops up and overlaps with the site's, making it nearly unusable. (Pressing escape to dismiss the menu has a 50% chance of also dismissing the site's)

Any way to disable the context menu? Bonus points if it can be done on a per-site basis.

When I try to view a pdf in the browser, Firefox downloads it first. I went into about:config and changed to browser.download.start_downloads_in_tmp_dir = true just to get it to stop downloading to a specified folder, but now it downloads in tmp directory leaving me with the same issue of pdf's piling up on my computer just to view a pdf in the browser.

This never used to be an issue. I do not want to automatically download every single pdf I view on the internet. Is there some way that Firefox can simply render the pdf instead of downloading it?

I don't know how to fix my issue. my banking page and roblox for my daughter have both been asking for codes. i enter the code and tell the web page to remember the device. i can log out 5 second and days later it doesn't remember the device. i not sure how to get it to remember my computer. i use firefox as the browser. computer not been moved internet has not been switch my ip address should be the same. i dont understand why these 2 pages cant remember my computer and the bank says i am the only person this is happening to. webroot is not active acount it a old softwear.

Firefox 109 is horrible and I am trying to revert to 108. I have the "Old Firefox Data" file, but have no idea how to get ALL that info back into 108. I am so very upset and frustrated right now! So much wasted time. I cannot believe Mozilla did this to us with no warning!!!!!!!! I have seen some articles on how to get the info back, but I don't really understand them. I am relatively computer-savvy, but I definitely do not understand how all this works. Some "Firefox for Dummies" at this point would be greatly appreciated. I am on a PC using Windows 10 professional 64-bit with automatic updates so it's current.

Hi, I explained in the query itself. I do not have any add on or downloaded any ad blocker software. But genuine sites are not allowed to for eg. to access a speed test website keralatelecom.info. I get this alert

The firefox Sync does not seem to be syncing my windows firefox tabs with android ff browser or vice versa. The pc browser just says "Sit tight while your tabs sync. It’ll be just a moment." on the top left but its been like 15 mins and its not working. and my android ff browser says "you dont have any tabs pen in FF on other devices". Please need help. Thanks

I can login to all other accounts with the exceptions of my e-mail accounts. Why is firefox doing this or blocking this? There is no pop up of any kind. Hitting the login button for my e-mails does nothing. If I go to google browser I can login to my e-mail accounts with no problem. Should I choose to delete firefox? Why does you browser not work correctly? Signed....A long time user and supporter of mozilla firefox....JamesPaul Jones

Hi! :) ,I would like to know if I can for example, after syncing, close a tab on one device and I would immediately be closed on the other one. sorta automatic syncing to the cloud after every registered changed

Hello Mozilla Support, Google sign-in pop-up persists after disabling it. I have searched the web for this solution, enacted them, but the problem persists even after I have turned off the feature in my Google account. (See my attached images.) Some posts have commented that the problem persists in the Firefox browser, but not in other browsers. Thank you for support.

My Firefox refuses to load MetaCPAN's OpenSearch.xml file, even though I can access it without problems.

So this got me thinking, as Opensearch files are relatively easy to write, is it possible to import my own opensearch.xml into Firefox?

If it's impossible, I'll submit a ticket to bugzil.la.

Hi Firefox community, I don't want to store any account login data (also not usernames) on the shared PC that I'm using. In settings > passwords there is no entry, and under access data and passwords any options are deactivated. Although passwords are not stored, Firefox shows the user names/account names whenever I click such field. Where can I deactivate that user names/account names are stored and shown? Many Thanks in advance. Best wishes!
