I ran a program on my mac (https://kevin-de-koninck.github.io/Clean-Me/) without the "User Preferences" option and it still signed me out of my Firefox account .Usually shouldn't be a big deal but somehow my Lastpass account doesn't have the password saved (which I use to login to getpocket.com every day, so I literally don't understand what is going on with it not being in there) so I can't login to it. It's the main account, and I can login to my other accounts attached to it, but I get the error "login with main account" after I sign in successfully.

So, I can't login to my main account (main@example.com) but I can login to my attached account (not_main@example.com). Also, on my phone i am logged into main@example.com, but I can't change the password without knowing the password. And if I change the password to main@example.com it will reset my account which I really don't want as I have years and years of bookmarks and history on there.

Can anyone help? Please, and thanks in advance.

Frame skipping / drops and choppy playback on >120 fps video playback if certain use flags are not enabled

Basically when watching a stream on Twitch.tv that is being broadcasted in fps above 60, meaning that the encoder uses 120 fps there are tons of skipped frames. It basically never stops skipping the frames. Even after reaching ridiculous numbers like 10000 skipped frames it just never stops. After enabling the following use flags "layers.d3d11.force-warp: true" and "gfx.swap-interval.egl: true" the problem subsides, skipped almost completly disappear. I think if I turn off hardware acceleration it prevents the frames from skipping too.

By the way I will attach my hardware info down below: OS: Windows 11 22H2 CPU: 13900k GPU: 3060 TI

I'm not sure if this behaviour is expected or normal but it's kind of weird. Maybe it's a problem with my hardware and not a software problem. I'm hoping it's not a faulty gpu or something. Would be nice if somebody could reassure if this is a problem with my gpu or not.

Flags tested: "gfx.swap-interval.egl" "layersd3d11.force-warp" and turning hardware accel on / off "layers.acceleration.force-enabled" also "layers.prefer-opengl".

Any testers apperciated! Best regards, Syntractrix.

Hi, Can I choose what short cuts are displayed?

Right now it looks like FireFox is putting the most recent visits there  i.e It displays 4 different icons of Wordpress.[I was working on  my blog] Prior versions let me choose which ones  I wanted and they stayed on the page. For example I had short cuts to my emails and bank along with Facebook, Wordpress etc. I was/am using the one row choice. i tried using the recent activity choice but only 2 showed up even though I had viewed several sites.  I *think* I am using the latest version.

So, today i installed the latest update to firefox (at least that's when i was notified). I installed it. Then for some reason i got notified it's not the latest version and installed another through about -> help. I usually keep it up to date so not sure why 2 installs in same day. In any case, i am now on 116.0.1 64 bit. And that completely broke my browsing and firefox.

Some of the issues im experiencing. 1. Google search is not "working". I type something into the search bar, and when i press "enter" on the keyboard, it just moves to next line and i can type again. This however was not happening before. It works normally on chrome/edge and only started happening on this release. 2. Almost anything "interactive" is broken, or not functioning. For example, my chess.com settings cant be loaded no more. Loads it fine in other browsers. 3. Youtube is not functioning properly. Sometimes it loads, sometime it doesn't 4. Some pages aren't rendering properly.

It's as if javascript or some other thing is not loading anymore. I tried moving back to older versions, however, that did not fix anything. Everything was fine untill i upgraded today.

I have noticed that I am unable to login to my account at numerous sites after the latest upgrade. Tow of the most notable are https://us.norton.com/ where nothing happens when I click on "my account" and https://secure.hushmail.com where I am put into an endless loop when trying to login. They both worked flawlessly before the update.

My security setting in Firefox remains set to standard so nothing has changed in that regard.

Help!!!

Sincerely,

Karl Wolff [removed email from public]

Hi, As of last 2 days (since the last upgrade) Firefox does is stuck on some sites. Some features on facebook would not load Some sites say that the servers take too long to respond - say they have troubles reaching servers. Some sites refuse to login or stuck (chesstempo)

Note then I tried all this on Opera - all worked. What could be the issue? cleaning cache did not help.

thanks, Mark

After the newest update Firefox fails to upload some pages. I reset the internet and wifi but that didn't fix the problem so I try Edge and it worked fine....

For example Facebook load fine but if I try changing the cover photo the menus (pull down panel) never appears. Earthlink home page never uploads. etc.

While I switched to MS Edge all the pages mentioned above worked fine.... so it is not the Wifi or the internet connection

Firefox 115.3 kept crashing on opening. I tried Safe Mode, but that also just crashed straight away. I'm not aware of any changes that have been made that might trigger this. I've not changed any settings, or Add-Ons, or anything like that.

Even though I was supposed to be getting the latest updates, I was not informed of 116. So I have now downloaded and installed 116, and everything has disappeared. Bookmarks and settings, all gone.

I know they still exist, cos I can see them in Firefox 112 on my laptop. But on my desktop, it's like a virgin installation.

Help!!!!! Thanks for reading.
