So since today I have an Issue where a ton of Pictures on Firefox turn completely black (see attachments). This happens on basically every Website. I've tried a few things like removing/disabling extensions or changing the Theme however nothing helped. I also have another instance of Firefox installed on another Drive on my PC (completely clean new installation) and there I have the exact same Problem. I tried updating Firefox but that broke it completely on my other Instance and now I can not even open Tabs there anymore.

Since a couple of weeks, FireFox wil not open all frames locally from my website, but from the Internet it works just fine. When I work with my homepage, I test changes locally before publishing them. It works fine with Chrome, Edge, Brave and other bworsers. It's probably just a setting, but if anything, I have given more permits lately and not made restrictions. Anyway - I cannot find any setting, that should affect this. I have attached two images to illustrate the predicament, I'm in. frames1.png show the way I have organisted my pages. A frame at the top for overall navigation. A frame to the left that navigates the main-pages to the right. If I click on a link in the left pane, the main page no longer changes. frames2.png shows an actual example page. Windows 10 and Firefox latest version.

Frequent but erratic problems with access to Google services

A few weeks ago I started having occasional problems with access to sites protected by reCAPTCHA. I would get error messages about not being able to connect to reCAPTCHA. Switch to Edge, no problem. This would change from day to day. Sometimes it all works, other times it doesn't, still. Then I started to notice that Google searches in Firefox would sometimes take a long time and eventually fail. Try it a few minutes later sometimes, no problem, instant results. Erratic. Never know when it's going to work and when it's not. Switch to Bing, good to go, always. Google Maps sometimes loads right away, other times it is very slow and may never completely load. Finally, I've noticed that some non-Google sites sometimes load slowly or stall out altogether, commonly with a "Waiting for www.googletagmanager.com" message at the bottom left. I haven't encountered any of these issues in Edge, though granted I seldom use it unless I'm having trouble with Firefox.

This weekend, I did a full computer rebuild, which involved a clean install of Firefox. I was hoping that something in Firefox had got corrupted in my old computer and that the rebuild would take care of it. But, no. Same as before. If this were a problem on Google's end, I'd expect a big howl. As it stands, I think it probably must be Firefox that's at fault.

Anyhow, before I try to submit a bug report, has anyone else experienced this? Better yet, does anyone know a cure?

Thanks.

Is it possible to add a feature of a description/comment to the about:logins so that you can specify what the u/p is for?

ie, i have sites using ip addresses (that must not be given hostnames) that have a u/p but could do with a description to say what they are for. ie2, i have a website that is used to connect to different devices where the username is always a certain username, but with a different password per device. Firefox offers to change the password saved (but it would be changing it for all devices, not that particular one).

Opening PDFs automatically with Firefox and, without any changes I might make, saving them with the download function in Firefox, actually ruins the functionality and data entry function of that file. Specifically this happens with PDF files downloaded from the (not all that amusing) PDFs from the FINCEN, (US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network). I do not see why and how Firefox thinks it is allowed to change files that are simply downloaded and saved on Firefox.

In other words, it seems that Firefox strips away certain "permissions" and/or "functions" (like built-in lookup, menu or choice boxes). This means that the file so downloaded via Firefox can no longer be used to properly fill in data, or to look up and choose data items within the file. (I see many times that ANYTHING having to do with "permissions" tends to be an intractable and unsolvable problem for software makers & experts, so, if you do not know right away how to solve the problem, it will probably take you several years to figure this out.)

The PDF in question is created by a government agency. If you have ever dealt with a government agency, then you know that they act sort of like Adobe or Microsoft: "They don't respond, or they do respond & say they do not understand, and if they understand, they are either unwilling or unable to fix the problem."

If there is a switch or option within Firefox, which lets me tell Firefox "Save this file exactly like it is received, nothing added or removed!", that would be nice. I just have not found such an option yet, and it would be nice if it might get provided someday.

I will share my browser data, but I am sort of convinced that a detailed question like mine will not be addressed within that shared data.

Firefox 134.0.1 videos keep popping up in new window automatically without user control

When I watch Youtube and I go to another tab the video keeps popping out a new window and when I go back to the youtube page the pop-up video collapses to the original window in Youtube. The same problem occurs in Rumble voideos so it has to do with Mozilla-Firefox browser & not the video sites. This behavior where the user has no control on "WHEN A VIDEO SHOULD POP-UP" on a separate window only has happened under the latest Firefox version. I don't have any Extension Add-on that may produce this behavior. It seems that the Settings only turn off completely pop-up videos If this is not solved I will definitely switch browsers. The user no longer has full control when a video should pop-up in a separate window. This should be a feature fully controlled by the user and not automatically by the browser. It is EXTREMELY ANNOYING. I've tried different settings suggested by other firefox users using the About:Config settings but none have worked. This is a major bug or a depracation of functionality. Please advice.

Thank You EM

My tabs in Firefox have been VERY reliable for years. Whenever i shut down, or put the computer to sleep - the tabs were almost always there when i re-opened. Last night i closed my computer lid (ie, sleep, not shut down) and this morning, when I opened it all my tabs were gone and there is nothing available under my history menu to restore closed tabs or windows. I do have tabs from my other synced computer - but not from this. I also tried logging out and logging in - with no result.

Is this is a dead duck or is there a chance to still restore my tens of tabs i had open?

Thanks

I am a senior citizen and trying my best to keep up with techno stuff. I have used FF for a long time with no problems. I am a keen Amateur photographer. I have started doing on line courses with the school of Photography, and some of the tutorial videos are very pixelated and UN-viewable. I have also just started subscribing to Adobe Light room and its the same there videos very pixelated. I contacted Dell as my laptop is only a few weeks old so they did remote assist and installed new drivers etc, then sent a follow up email in case all was not well. They suggested I contacted Adobe, so this i did and they did remote assist they also saw what i saw then the person s aid all is OK there end, so whilst doing remote the person installed Chrome on my laptop and the videos open perfectly. also within Firefox I hav started having the same issue with u tube videos, so can someone help me please is there a what is it ah yes extension. Whilst writing this something has come to mind i have always looked at u tube before with FF so is it this new laptop? hope someone can help please as no way i want Chrome but if i can not view LR videos in FF I will have no choice.Many thanks.
