we can't upload videos after the latest (13/05/23) update. thank you.

hi, the latest update changed the homepage a lot. The most bothersome thing i have noticed is that when i type anything into the search area it immediately moves from the search bar in the middle of the page to the address bar at the top of the page where i usually just get URL's. It doesnt serve any purpose i can think of and i have never used the address bar to do normal searches before. Is there any way to change my homepage back to the way it was? Or at least stop the search and address bars from being linked?

I am 84 years old and have limited digital skills. My computer is 2003 Dell Windows 7 running with Firefox at my deceased brother's suggestion. I do not know how to get my email back to normal size - it is now so small it could be ant tracks. If this is not the correct group, could you pass it on.

   When I go to other sites eg, Amazon, Weather, etc these present in normal size.  Can you help me get my email back in normal size.  My address is a @gmail address.

Hi, I use a PC under W7.

with FF88, the zone of the activated/unused tabs was above the screen, below the listed tabs bar (like in the snapshot).

With FF89, this zone is now empty (background in blue in the snapshot) and only the active tab appears below the window (on the right down in the snapshot for the current tab).

It makes FF simply unusable ! Need your help to come back to a normal situation : all tabs in the blue bar where they were.

thanks a lot for your help. Regards, Philippe

After update firefox 89, I cannot input into search box. Text will only appear in the toolbar URL input box. Please help me fix it? Google is my default search engine.

I has taken many years of work for Mozilla to create a usable internet browser, and now you have taken that away. How was the Person who decided to put the search option into the URL. This is not only unsafe, but makes the Start page, useless. When I type in the Search I want to see it being input into the middle of my Start page like it has always been done, not waist a whole page for nothing. It is not only a stupid idea, it is also a waist of the text that us used to create the Start page. I would also like to note that many of the mobile, tablet and other computers all use this method, and it is rubbish and removes the point of having a page with a search text box in the middle.

for god sake can you please stop trying so hard to be the best of the best, Firefox has always been the best, and you seem to be trying your best to destroy it for many many users.

I'll get straight to the point whenever i download anything i cannot browse other websites, i cannot even google anything if i do the site says no internet and the download freezes and resumes after sometime (the down loader is occupying the majority of the bandwidth and not sharing with other sites i also have more bandwidth remaining but did not help with this problem) (i have not installed any download manager add-on) (its not a site specific issue)

please help me (Thank You)

Note: This was not a problem in previous versions of mozilla (before updating to 89.0 i could download and browse at the same time without any issue)

Also is there a way to change the tabs background color, pale blue is not my style especially in dark theme the UI feels sleeker in this update i like it

Installation in German language under W10 Home 64bit. VCRUNTIME140_1.dll not found, installation interrupted. Firefox seems to be installed, but totally unresponsive (no files, no websites, not even parameters). Any known measures? Thanks!

My Firefox updated last week and it was all fine cause I only used it for work. Today I wanted to open Facebook and it says

"www.facebook.com. SSL_ERROR_DC_EXPIRED"

I have googled the problem - seems I am not the only one having it - and I have tried every suggested fix but I still can not open the website and it's frankly pissing me off.

I like to decide for myself what I want to visit or not and I don't need a Firefox nanny.

Can anyony help me how solve this? Or can I uninstall and roll back this latest - but certainly not greatest - update. I also don't like the semi sheer top of the new update. I preferred it not being there.

I do not like to use the ADDRESS BAR for search and navigation. I prefer to use the GOOGLE SEARCH field. I am visually impaired, and cannot easily read the tiny font in the search bar, whereas I can ZOOM / expand the GOOGLE SEARCH field. PLEASE stop forcing users to jump to the ADDRESS BAR when they type into the GOOGLE SEARCH field. OR you will “force” me to jump away from FIREFOX. Alternately, provide a means to EXPAND THE FONT in the ADDRESS BAR.

I am probably not tech savvy enough to adequately explain my problem.

My desktop has the latest version of Firefox and suddenly I can no longer log into my email from the AT&T homepage. When I attempt to log into my mail account I can select my user name and PW but when I press enter all that is displayed is a broken spinning blue circle that never stops and I cannot access my e-mail. Pretty sure there is a preference setting in privacy & security that I screwed up somehow.

Have disabled all add on's and security software but still get same result.

Is there a way to reset Firefox to the original install defaults without doing a complete Firefox removal and starting over from scratch? I have Chrome on my machine and email works fine. So am pretty sure I did something in settings that is causing my problem.
