sound playback does not work on my PC, only in your browser, which I need for work and is the main one. I updated the drivers, rebooted the system, and checked the sound in other applications. Everything points so far to the fact that the problem is with the browser.

Using Twitter to compose message in Firefox Browser however cannot scroll to reveal box to reply. How do I activate the scroll bar to the right hand side of the twitter "compose a reply" chat box?

While I'm in Firefox, composing a reply in twitter, I can only get so far. The gray scroll bar on the right will not move. So I can create a reply but I cannot get to the tweet box. See images attached.

When I try to scroll, this chat box comes up instead asking to save or discard. I do not want to do neither. I want to reply right now. I went to chrome and used twitter there and I could retweet, add my comment and then scroll down to select the tweet button.

If the scroll bar on the right would actually scroll, it would take me to the bottom on the chat box where i could then see and select the tweet box. So please tell me if I can use twitter while in Firefox to reply to messages or must I always go to another browser? How do I activate the scroll bar to the right hand side of the twitter "compose a reply" chat box?

I hope the images help. Thank you for reading.

For several years now Firefox keeps the methodology to update in the background and then force the user to restart.

This always causes some loss.

There are multiple situations where this is not acceptable. Just to give one example: I just logged in an account and clicked to receive an authentication SMS. But then Firefox forced restart and I cannot login nor ask for a new SMS because the previous request was recent.

In my opinion this makes absolutely no sense. Is there an option the turn off this forced restart?

Since firefox has added VR support, it seems to randomly open SteamVR, even though I'm not currently accessing any VR content. I've heard you can disable dom.vr.enabled, but this was already disabled.

I've also disabled these settings, which does not seem to have helped:

dom.vr.oculus.enabled dom.vr.oculus.invisible.enabled dom.vr.openvr.enabled

Is there anything else I can do to see why this would be happening?

I'm trying to mark up a pdf. The pen symbol is there. When you click on it, it opens up a menu. It will not write, but it does move the screen, which is not wanted either. The menu will not close unless you turn the pen off. Possibly related, my snip & sketch will not actually take a screen shot. I just get a white page. I can't screen shot any of this.

The desktop mouse cursor becomes large when using Firefox with >200% display scaling. It doesn't matter if it's 250% or 300%, the result is the same. My system configuration is as follows:

Opensuse Tumbleweed (up-to-date) Firefox 112.0.2 64bit KDE Plasma running Wayland

I've included 2 screenshots that show the difference in the mouse pointer size when outside of a Firefox window and inside it. Also, this issue is only present with Firefox; no other application produces this result. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I contributed to Ad Block, as requested on a pop-up. It looked legitimate, but then I got an email from an unknown address saying I needed to click on "download" to install...can anyone tell me if it is safe? Don't want to import malware. The download message came from Eyeo Gmbh via Paddle. Also, I already have AdBlock so don't get why it needs to be downloaded.Thanks

I've found keystrokes in Vietnamese (not English) behave very weird with Gmail and Google Sheet in Firefox browser. They don't happen with Chrome browser (in the same situations): -You can't delete the characters you already typed if you insert the cursor between them. -If you delete some words then retyping, it makes double characters. -Sometimes when you type the period (.), the previous word just disappears. You have to type a space before you can put a period. Those have been happening a couple of months. My Firefox browser version is 112.0.2 (64-bit)

do firefox 'saved passwords' remain after backing up to external hd and factory resetting mac?

Hi, Am backing up a laptop that needs to go overnight to a repair shop and want to wipe it clean for privacy. Will the passwords saved by firefox be saved in the backup as well?

I've also downloaded them to a csv file as an additional precaution, but have no idea how to reload them into 'saved passwords' after the repairs are complete, as no option is provided for that - only the option to import from another browser... Thanks for your help!

PS: also, why does mozilla require a manual login to this support forum when my login is saved in it's own password saver?? It is not auto-filling it as expected.
