Firefox Community Forum

I would like to control the animation speed of .GIF (ie on Wikipedia). I would like to stop, manual single step or play frames one per duration (ie 1 frame every 2 sec or 1 frame every .5 sec). I would also like to control whether it repeats. I would like to freeze at any point then resume playing given the above settings.

How do I do this?

PS: There may be other types of animation files which the above control could apply to as well.

Thank you kindly for any guidance!

Emojis do not show on Firefox 146 on macOS. I downgraded to 145.0.2 and they do show, so it seems related to Firefox 146.

I have macOS 26.2 running in both test cases.

Emoji in question: 👨🏻💻

For many years, I've used a utility called DropZone in my menubar, which (among other things) allows documents to be automatically sorted into user-created locations (e.g., folders in the Finder).

Last night, suddenly, each time I drag a photo from Firefox to DropZone, a large window called "Action Console" opens, displaying a bunch of text. Here's a typical message that's displayed:

[Launching task with command line: runner.rb task-26498]

Task description file task-26498:

ACTION: "/Applications/- Misc. apps/Dropzone 4.app/Contents/Actions/Move Files.dzbundle" EVENT: "dragged" VARIABLE: "support_folder" "/Users/mervynwarren/Library/Application Support/Dropzone" VARIABLE: "dragged_type" "files" VARIABLE: "app_version" "4.80.66" VARIABLE: "apple_silicon" "1" VARIABLE: "os_version" "26.0.0" VARIABLE: "path" "/Users/mervynwarren/Pictures/iTunes art" VARIABLE: "tmp_folder" "/var/folders/7l/ldzhrwyx1v1dy2tky3c1_y640000gn/T/"

[Task completed]

Ironically, although the last line says "Task completed," the task I was attempting to perform (moving a photo into a given folder) is in fact NOT comleted at all.

Further observations:

This behavior is not displayed in Safari. In Safari, images continue to be moved to the desired folder, as intended.

I googled "action console keeps opening in Firefox," and I performed 4 troubleshooting steps that google AI suggested (including launching Firefox into troubleshooting mode). Unfortunately, in troubleshooting mode, the behavior persists, which suggests that this has nothing to do with any add-ons.

I also created a new, test profile—but even in the test profile, the behavior persists.

So, I'm stumped. After years of using Firefox, this behavior has appeared out of nowhere—and I cannot figure out why, nor how to fix it.

Any further suggestions?

Hi everybody, I need a bit of tech help! I have changed some images on my website but Firefox browser still displays the old images! Does anybody know how to correct this? I have the latest version of Firefox. If I use another browser the new images appear! Thanks for your help. Gazza
