I don't know when it began but on 136.0.3, I'm experiencing choppy playback of 4k/24fps video. 60fps works fine, as do lower resolutions of 24fps content. I confirmed that YT is using the VP09 for playback.

I frequently use google image translate by taking screenshots and pasting them in the website. On chrome, I could grant it access to the clipboard on the first screenshot then not worry about it anymore. On firefox however, pressing ctrl + v first opens a context menu where I then have to click "paste" (or press p) every single time. It's getting annoying to have to go through this extra step. Is there a setting or add-on that would allow me to give a website full clipboard permissions like other browsers?

I have asked this question once before, but was hoping I could get some help by asking again. The text on my screen will completely bug out, and I have no idea how to stop it. I will attach several images from this screen alone showcasing the issue. It occurs everywhere, including captions. Only Firefox has this issue on my computer. I have tried refreshing Firefox once, and it did not solve the problem.

I was in the process of writing a somewhat lengthy response and went to another webpage or webpages and when I went back to the webpage where I was writing the somewhat lengthy response, the webpage was completely blank! The Back and Forward buttons were grayed out, Refreshing the webpage did nothing so there was NO way to get the webpage back. Interestingly, when I hover over the URL, at the end of the URL for the webpage, it had "about:blank." Things like this are very frustrating and waste a lot of my time.

In addition, another problem I reported on 3/20/25 (link is: A webpage I just closed recently is not listed Back arrow issue) has still no response.

Also another frustrating thing about the Firefox browser is that at times the Bookmarks sidebar disappears.

I need a reliable browser, not one that sort of works! I request that these issues be addressed soon.

Certain webpages (which load without problem in Opera) will fully load and then immediately become blank as if it never loaded. If I hit "reload" the same thing happens, it loads and then goes blank. This is only certain webpages but here is one for example:

https://newrepublic.com/post/193132/white-house-leavitt-deny-war-plans-group-chat

Again, this is not a problem in Opera. But Firefox has been my main browser for many years now, and I'd rather not switch if I don't have to.

Thank you. Malcolm Garris

Hi there folks,

recaptcha pop up window does not appear even though I know its there (in comparison to chrome). The result is that the main window may be slightly greyed out or look normal but I cannot move on in the dialogue (for example when I have completed a form and want to submit).

Very frustrating because: 1. I have to move over to chrome where there are no such issues 2. I am increasingly having to default to chrome which I don't want to do

Any help most welcome! Copper 102

We have been using firefox as our default browser for over Ten years. We have several internal web pages created with google sites, with simple google sheets containers that have been working fine in that period. As of two days ago, the pages started displaying incorrectly in firefox as shown in attachments. Have tried disabling trackers and extensions and emptied cache as well as making sure firefox is fully up to date. This is happening on multiple terminals at several locations. Safari and chrome browsers work fine. Any troubleshooting help appreciated or if this is a known bug?

Hi,

On my company's Outlook (365), when I start a new email the font on the first line *says* that it's Calibri - like I set in my email settings - but it appears to be an entirely different font. Also in Outlook, when I type 1st it changes the '1' and the 's' to superscript, makes the 't' regular sized, and will not allow me to place a space after the 't'. I have to hit 'enter', then space, then continue typing and then go back and remove the 'enter'.

In OneDrive, I'll open it from the 9 dots at the top left of Outlook and OneDrive will load. However, a moment later it often asks me to 'sign in', even though I've clearly been signed in for some time. Sometimes I can bypass it, but often the page won't work right until I click the 'sign in' pop-up. Then, it disappears, refreshes the page and it works fine; without me actually signing in.

I bring these two issues up at the same time, because they began at the same time. I believe it started in January or early February, if that helps. I waited to seek help, expecting it could have been caused by a recent update that would be corrected later. I recently saw that Firefox released an update and my browser auto-updated, but the issues persist.

I've reached out to Microsoft for support on this and we found the issues only occurred in Firefox, so I'm here to ask for some help, please.

Thanks.

I use the email server fastmail.fm inside the Firefox browser on a 2023 Macbook pro. In the main everyday pane (the list of emails) there is a right-hand scroll bar. Frequently that scroll bar is MUCH too long, so that I cannot scroll all the way to the bottom of the list of emails. Both Apple and fastmail.fm are pretty sure they are not responsible. When the scroll bar is too long, I know a work-around, but I would like the problem not to happen.

Recently, i had to use a public pc in my workplace for a while. i used Firefox to access the internet, and for practical reason, i signed in my Firefox account. After i was done, i made sure i have signed out my Firefox account before leaving. The next day, when i used Firefox again on that pc, i noticed that all my saved passwords (from syncing my Firefox account) were still in that Firefox browser, even though i haven't signed in my Firefox account. Now i feel like i am at the mercy of fate because anybody who used that pc after me yesterday could have gained access to all my passwords. So far, nothing bad happens and i hope it stays that way.

I don't know if anyone has brought this up. Since Firefox does not erase any saved password after a user signs out, I think Firefox should, or rather, MUST give a warning message after a user signs out of Firefox to manually erase any saved password on Firefox, so that any stupid user like me will not make that stupid mistake so easily.

For 2.5 years I access my monthly bank statements from Alliance Bank on line, as I am currently on an extended stay out of Texas. This morning, I attempted to access my new statement and Firefox refuses to let me into the Alliance Bank website -- even though I've been going in there every month for about 30 months, at least once a month. Each time I try to go to the site, a warning comes up that it will NOT connect as this is not a secure connection as the security certificate is invalid due to being 'self-signed'. This is the same site I've gone to and done my banking for all this time, all with Firefox....can you please help me to disable this 'nanny' feature so that I can do my banking business per normal. SURELY..nothing has changed since I logged in last month...and them month before etc.. Thank you for your assistance, I am NOT at all tech competent.
