I develop wordpress websites on FF Dev Ed on a Mac running macOS12.7.4. This current problem is one I've never seen before.

• In a regular window of FFDE, dropdown items on the menu, don't drop down.
• A youtube video, visible in the source and in the editor, doesn't display on the page.
• A gallery of logos doesn't appear on the page, though it does in the editor and the editor's preview.

These problems DON'T APPEAR

• in a private window,
• in vanilla Firefox,
• in another user account, using FFDE
• on other websites, using FFDE
• in other browsers,
• on other computers, using FFDE

In all those cases, site works perfectly. Actions:

• refreshed the page (dozens of times),
• cleared the site cache, the browser cache (Managed the data AND cleared the data)
• turned off all extensions,
• put the browser in troubleshooting mode,

all with no change. Although I don't think anyone else will see the problem, the site is https://homeopathyschool.org What am I missing?

This is a bug report & fix I found.

Firefox x64 DE 130.0b1 (however, it is not specific to this version of FF.) AMD 3900X CPU (all hardware clocks default unless otherwise noted) AMD RX 6900XT Corsair HX-850 PSU Latest device and chipset drivers from AMD and the respective manufacturers, from their sites Gigabyte Aorus Master motherboard (rev 1) 32GB DDR4 system ram (4x8) stock clocked at 3733Mhz, default timings Windows 11 Build 22635.4005 (Insider's beta-channel build--problem and solution are not build specific, I found)

Problem description:

• Two-three months ago, my previously rock stable system began regular crashing events, every 2-4 days average, sometimes twice a day, sometimes once every 4 days.

• Kernel Error 41, and I spent inordinate amounts of time trying to trace the problem as you might imagine from PSU to device drivers, you name it.

• Finally dawned on me that the hard crashes did not occur when playing a game or when punishing the CPU in some computational tasks--nope, I realized that every time the system crashed I was online running Firefox.

• I got it in my head (through some reasoning I don't even recall) that possibly the CPU stop error that triggered the critical Kernel error and crashed the system was due to a multi-threading bug in my trusty browser!

• So, I checked out Mozilla bug reports and stumbled upon this Windows environment variable, MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S 1, which I decided to try. It has now been two solid weeks without another episode--not even 1--and while I am not whooping and cheering wildly, quite yet, I do believe the problem boils down to some sort of obscure Ff multi-threading bug! Something was locking up process threads between cores! So, I thought I'd report it! If this gets ID'ed and fixed I'll be happy to try it on at some point...;)

hello Since the 129.01 update yesterday 14-08-24, internet access for the desktop died completely. I used Microsoft Edge (don't ask what release) as a back up browser, that failed citing a DNS error.

Not knowing what to do I found a really old version of Firefox and installed that.

Things are coming back to life but I need to install v129.00 because that worked.

I had to use another computer (laptop win11) for access.

Need help so I can cancel the order for the new desktop.

Does somebody know how to disable firefox to start in the last used workspace? I use Firefox under Linux in a Window Manager and defined a rule that should put firefox in a specific workspace but in this case firefox remembers its last used workspace and does not 'obey' the set rule...

Hello. I'm afraid there has been a data breach from either Firefox or Lockwise.

I have passwords that are used only in local development virtual hosts accessed only from Firefox that are showing up in Google password alerts.

1. Close Firefox (FF) with some tabs open 2. While FF is closed the websites are updated 3. Open Firefox, tabs reopen 4. Go to tabs

Expected: Tabs should the latest version of the website (ie the page has been refreshed)

Actual: Tabs are showing the old, previous (cached) versions of the website and not refreshing to show the latest

User has to manuall refresh each tab to see the latest version of the page

Are other people seeing this issue?

Sometime in the last few months, Firefox (Developer Edition) stopped allowing redirects and links to file://-protocol URLs. Is there a way to re-enable this for my personal browser, e.g. via about:config or the like?

Thanks!

My (custom) cursor has recently started being transparent when I hover over a YouTube video. On darker colors it's fine, but on white it's straight up invisible. I tried recording it, but the recording doesn't capture the transparency. This didn't happen before, I changed nothing.

Hello, I'm having similar issue like this person https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1b8e2za/everything_is_missing_after_update/, where my shortcuts and recent activity is just blank. I tried to reinstall firefox, install beta version, remove cookies and cache but nothing helped me. Seems it happened after a update.

Hi. In recent weeks, I have been having daily issues with pictures in messenger not showing when they are sent to me, though I can see the ones I send out.

I have done the usual running in troubleshooting mode etc, but it makes no difference.

I have added a screenshot of the issue below.

I use Firefox beta and the issue does not happen on other browsers such as edge.
