When I try to go to costco.ca I get a connectivity error saying site cannot redirect properly. This site works with IE or other browsers.


The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

On the Save Page As dialog on Linux, how do I edit the choices of where to save?

The stock options are Home, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Videos, and + Other Locations.

I don't use most of these directories, but I do use two dozen others. Navigating to them using Other Locations is painfully slow; it would be ok if I could then save the location I've navigated to, but I haven't found a way to do that, and clicking one path element at a time for 6 element paths over and over gets old quickly.

Typing the path I want either nukes the default filename, or else it tries to match the filename string from the URL in the target directory, which doesn't show me existing directory contents.

Thanks for any clues...

There is a black box on the top left corner whenever firefox is maximized. This problem appeared when I got my new computer screen (Asus 27" TUF Gaming VG27AQ1A, 170Hz WQHD). My old computer screen (23.6" VE247H LED, Full HD, 2ms, 10M:1) didn't have this issue.

Any help how to fix this issue?

When logging in to a website that I use many times every day all day, all of a sudden I log on and all I get is a blank white screen. I have tried clearing everything, restarting Firefox, removing Firefox and re-installing it, rebooting the computer, starting Firefox in the safe mode but no change. The same problem shows up on three different computers on two different networks with two different ISPs. The website opens normally on Edge and Chrome. I would prefer to be able to use Firefox. Using version 139.0.4 (64-bit) on all three computers. I would really appreciate any help that is available.

To preface this, I am on MacOS.

I noticed a small delay before starting videos while I have my AirPods connected. There are a few scenarios where this delay does not exist: - Any other browser - Audio is actively playing elsewhere - Mic is in use (like a zoom meeting in the background, even when muted) - Audio is muted

I have tried safe-mode, reinstalling, and even messing with the config, to no avail. I know for sure this is isolated to Firefox, and I believe it's due to how audio devices are handled. I would rather my videos immediately play rather than wait for a "health" check from my connected device, even if there isn't audio for that time period.
