Hello,

recently i've bought a new microsoft surface studio laptop and i noticed that when i am watching something on youtube, netflix or any other platform the video (sound is ok) is freezing after 9-10 sec of watching. I checked my componetns, temperatures, but then i tried another browser - google chrome. It worked smoothly. I use firefox since 2013 and i love it, but now I am considering switching to a different browser, because something is wrong here and it's not a hardware problem but rather a software issue, which is obviously firefox here... I am open for any advices on how to fix this freezing problem and just to be clear: i really don't want to change my browser... i like it :(

Best Regards Micheal

I am trying to transfer my cookies from Chrome over to Firefox, yet the import wizard has no mention of cookies under the chrome category. Things such as Edge Legacy and Internet Explorer have the cookies tab available.

I read that there was a way to do it manually, but I'm unsure of how.

I know things such as CookieBro exist, but I'm unsure if they're safe and they seem like a way to get all my tokens logged.

My Firefox browser stops when I save a picture from an open article/website, and I have to force quick Firefox and restart. I did not have this problem before; I suspect this came when the browser automatically updated to the latest version two days ago.

Hey, I with through different ways to try and recover my bookmarks and saved passwords after my pc went through a forced update to the new windows OS. I checked other E-mails to see if I may have used the wrong one to login to Firefox, though I only have one. Even check in about:profiles. I can't find any file in my Mozilla folder to try and restore or import bookmarks. I am at a loss and would appreciate any help in this before I start trudging through trying to get my bookmarks back one by one.

Firefox 105.0.3 crashes at startup on Windows 11 Family 21H2 (build 22000.978) French. Location: France. No error message. Firefox main windows appears for a tenth of a second and disappears. Same in troubleshoot mode (Shift+firefox.exe). The troubleshoot dialog box shows for a tenth of a second and disappears. No error message. No crash report generated. Device is an MSI GF62 Thin. Antivirus is Microsoft's Essential Suite. No Norton, Avast, AVG, Malwarebytes or any other security software is installed (checked in task explorer and on the disk). I got this on another old PackardBell laptop (Windows 10) with the same security configuration. Cannot figure out what the problem is. I have no clue whatsoever. Any idea?

I posted a problem yesterday and received an email from Mozilla Support asking me for information. I have NO IDEA how to find my original support problem to add comments - PLEASE let me know HOW to answer the Mozilla Support email (other than this way). Here is what I got in the email:

"I can replicate the issue in 105.0.3 and see that it works in Chrome. see screenshot What version of macOS? What version of Firefox are you running?"

My answers are: macOS Monterey 12.6 (put on a few days ago - upgrade from Big Sur) 105.0.3 (64 bit) - which is marked "Up to date"

So, I have the latest operating system for my MacBook AIr and the latest Firefox Browser and the display issue still exists.

I keep having display problems with one website in particular. I keep clearing the website cache, and it temporarily rectifies the problem, only to have it return when more data ends up in the website cache. I am clearing this cache several times a day. I tried closing and reopening Firefox, but that does not clear the cache, even though it is set to clear all browsing history upon closing.

I've experienced this about 4 times now over the past few weeks, at seemingly random intervals. This occurs on both my Mac mini and MacBook pro (both with M1), usually after browsing for an hour or more. Possible culprit - this seems to have only started happening after running a Snowflake proxy. Could this be the cause? If not, what else might it be?

Additional info Extensions - Bitwarden, SimpleLogin, uBlock Origin, Dark Reader Tracking protection - Strict

Firefox 105.0.3 (64-bit) - add-on drop-down menus are back w/white text. I need white w/black text

I have selected a particular theme (Classic Marine Blue) which I like. However, when I click on an item that has a dropdown menu, the background color of the dropdown is black with white text. I prefer white with black text. For example, this happens with the Library item with the drop downs Bookmarks, History, and Downloads.

I've tried using Firefox Colors, and couldn't solve the problem with a custom theme.

I get it that this happens because the text color on most of the toolbars is white, which apparently triggers Firefox to flip to a black background rather than staying with the original white background.

I don't wish to change the theme. All I want is my black-text on white-background drop down colors back.

Any suggestions? Please help. This is really annoying.
