Firefox on my mac has been acting buggy lately. The last time I quit and reopened it, all of my windows and tabs were gone. there is no restore previous session available and the recently closed tabs and windows options are grayed out. How can I restore?

receiving error message when attempting to log into my Nord VPN: An error occurred during a connection to nordvpn.com. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR

All of a sudden, I can't access several websites through Firefox that I have used for years -- but I CAN access them in other browsers, like Chrome and Safari. Also, Firefox no longer works with my password manager. Until about two weeks ago, I could always autofill login information, but no more.

What gives? I am up to date on my IOS (Sequoia 15.5) and on my version of firefox -- and my password manager app. Superfrustrating. I hate to have to turn to Chrome as my primary browser since I hate Google, but I might end up doing that and just not using Firefox anymore, after like 20 years of having it as my primary browser.

Myself and a colleague who both use Firefox on Mac are experiencing the exact same issues.

1. Table header cells don't show their text, unless we specify a font for the table

I tried to put an example of the HTML here but it was rendered as a table by this page. I'll add some images of the code instead to show it.

In Firefox the Header cells are not visible, but in Chrome the text appears correctly.

If we add CSS like...

<style> table { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } </style>

...in the header then the missing text in the THs appears.

2. Other font issues

The Wave accessibility extension has text that doesn't appear and throw errors like this in the console...

downloadable font: rejected by sanitizer (font-family: "Open Sans" style:normal weight:400 stretch:100 src index:3) source: moz-extension://b86260c9-33f6-4529-b12f-a101d8607bd4/styles/open-sans-v17-latin-regular.woff

These only occur on Firefox on our Macs. Fine on PC and other browsers on the Macs.

We tried a whole series of tweaks to settings to try fix this.

I have tried resetting Firefox and doing a fresh install but nothing fixes either issue. Are these known issues with recent Firefox releases on Mac?

A new Mac App I bought called "CleanMyMac" deleted all my Firefox passwords on my Mac, which was not my intention. (And shame on CleanMyMac for not putting up a warning message.) I didn't want that accidental deletion to be spread to my various iOS devices (causing me to lose passwords there too) so I have turned off Sync for now. I have since recreated my passwords on my Mac (and exported them to a file for backup) and want to resume Syncing. What can I do to ensure that when I turn Sync back on the newly created Password data on my Mac gets priority over the older (now obsolete) password data on my iOS devices?

In other words, I want the passwords on my Mac to replace (via Sync) the obsolete passwords on my iOS devices.

Is there are way to tell Firefox which version should have priority? It was a huge amount of work to recreate all my passwords and logins.

Thanks!

It seems that scrolling periodically stops working, whenever I encounter nested scrolling on a page, eg. gemini.google.com with enabled canvas.

I scroll through the file, and then can't scroll through the conversation (However I can keep scrolling inside the file window). It usually starts working again in a few minutes.

How to whitelist a site to give location access? I have gone to the Location tab in settings, but it will not allow me to enter a URL/domain that I want to whitelist.

Firefox is asking for stored payment method information for the user "Carla Clarke" to allow me to sign up for Astrodienst (an Astrology Site). I keep a paper file for a my passwords, but I can't find one for Firefox.

As soon as I select the folder to which I want to save tabs in Bookmarks, the "Save" button disappears. I'm using version 141.0, which it says is up to date. I tabbed through to make the invisible "Save" button active, and then hit Return, and that succeeded in completing the save. But it's weird that I had to do it that way. Any ideas about what is going on here?

(I picked "Performance and connectivity" as the topic only because the form wouldn't submit without picking a topic and it didn't have an "Other" option.)
