Hi, I use the apple iCloud calendar on Firefox. iCloud calendar has recently updated and now I can't use backspace when editing events in the calendar. It isn't a problem with other browsers such as Google Chrome. Other people have had similar issues, posted on an Apple forum.

Hi, I'm looking for a way for everything saved on my firefox account including bookmarks, favorites, history etc.. to be automatically saved/backed up, EXACTLY the same way like Apple has it with iCloud.

If I lose my phone, I can log into icloud and get everything 100% the way it was on my new phone.

If I reset my computer, I want to be able to log into my firefox account and have everything exactly the same.

How to do this? I was told the firefox account sync doesn't back anything up...

I visited the website https://quantumbridge.app and somehow it installed something into my Firefox so that the website loads on my toolbar as an icon for a couple of seconds and then disappears. I have tried turning all of my extensions off and it still appears. I have tried researching how to fix this but I have had no luck.

Hello! Upon searching on Google, Netflix on Firefox can have a max resolution of 1280x720p. But recently, I noticed while watching on Netflix that the video quality was really poor, so I checked the stream details and saw that the resolution was only at 960x540p.

I have tried to create a new profile in Firefox to see if there would be any changes in the Netflix video quality and there was -- it was 1280x720p on the newly created profile while on my default profile it just remains stuck at 960x540p. I could easily just change my default profile, but it is too much of a hassle for me 'cause I don't want to have to re-download all my extensions and lose my bookmarks. Was wondering why this happened and how I could fix this?

Firefox browser had failed repeatedly when trying to display sections within 2 websites. I receive "Can not load the page" at Blue Cross and Blue Shield and download freezes the page, site and my computer at a credit card company- requiring end task and complete shut down of computer. This has been occurring for 2 months. I do not have any issue loading these sites or sections via Edge or Chrome. Will this be corrected with the name change? Will there be another browser page that is more reliable?

If not, you don’t need to change your name on Firefox browser. You can just close it down and I will move to Edge or Chrome.

None of your Troubleshooting answers on your Support page covers my situation. I have cleared history, verified settings based on internet articles from others with this issue. Please have someone contact me directly. I’m tired of trying to fix this issue with your browser.

Hello!

I have the problem that every of my most visited sites are loading normal fast except for YouTube.

YouTube needs about 2 to 3 seconds to load the site itself and the thumbnails like "lagging" pictures which are rendering real slow while my other most visited sites like Twitch, Reddit or Twitter are loading in about 1 second or less. (i have installed the "Page Load Time" addon to check that).

I have only installed uBlock and nothing else.

Hello there,

It's more an observation than a question.

FF was slow when several pages with video feeds were opened. Looking at the about:processes, I saw that the GPU usage was high. Disabling hardware acceleration solved this problem.

This occurred on a Dell XPS-15-9520, Win11, i5-12500H, 64GB RAM, Iris Xe. I don't have this problem on Linux machines.

May I suggest to benchmark and monitor hardware acceleration so that both CPU and GPU are used in case of heavy workload?

Many thanks,

Olivier. (very long time, happy, FF user ... )

Firefox 118.0.2 Windows 10 I cleared cache and cookies and since then when logging on to NatWest the "Remember Me" option will not work, I have to type in my customer number every time. I'm sure I had this problem a few years ago but cannot remember what fixed it. Tried contacting an agent of NatWest but their response was the expected "clear cache and try another browser" so no help at all. Probably a long shot but has anyone any idea what I am missing?

My computer needed to be updated so I click on update without closing any programs because the computer usually does it. At this time I was in the School Library well the update was completed so I open up Firefox usually when i open firefox after a shutdown or some other reason. I can go to Open Application Menu>History>RestorePreviousSession but before I clicked on Restore Previous Session I realize that I need to go to class, so I closed my computer. once in class I open my computer up and I try to restore my previous session but by the time that I tried to restore it my session was deleted and my question is if anyone at FIREFOX can help restore that deleted session because I was working on my research project which is due this week, and in that particular session I had tabs open that I need so i can finish my project. Please reach out as soon as possible. This happen on Tuesday. Thank You

I have 4 x header images on a slider, the first one loads ok, the second one loads ok, then when it should move on to the third & fourth it just stops. The site can still be navigated, but it's a bit annoying and not the user experience I want. The test url is

Hi ! J'utilise firefox depuis très longtemps sans me rendre compte qu'il connaissait ma position, et n'ai pas de problème avec ça. C'est quand j'ai voulu lui dire que j'habitais aux États-Unis pour changer la langue et le type de résultats (correspondant à ce dont j'ai besoin, mes études et recherches) que je me suis retrouvé coincé ; il ne m'affichait que mon adresse, toujours des résultats en français et aucun résultat pertinent malgré ma langue anglaise. Que faire ?

Merci par avance, Jacques.

Hello everyone :)

I would like Firefox to use my virtual webcam stream (Nvidia broadcast) by default instead of the hardware webcam (logitech brio)

I found where to control the site permissions for the microphone, the webcam, but unfortunately, it does not allow you to choose the default stream

I use Firefox to do teleconsultation as a doctor, and the web interface that I use always goes to the hardware webcam instead of using Nvidia broadcast which would allow me to hide the background

Is there a way to tell Firefox, or Windows 10, to never broadcast the hardware stream but to always use the virtual stream?

Thank you so much !
