I am using the latest public beta of Mac OS Mojave (10.14 b10/11) and the latest firefox (62). When I open firefox, it shows a completely black screen with only the red/yellow/green buttons at top. No text, but I can do some interactions with the browser blindly (cmd + L to type a URL, check "about", open preferences, etc.) NOTHING is visible except when I begin typing in the URL bar, but it stays completely blank otherwise.
I have: 1. Completely erased and reinstalled firefox using AppCleaner. 2. Tried firefox safemode - still black. 3. Tried beta and nightly versions 4. Installing the last working version I had (which was 60 on Mac beta 9).
- 5. Used a guest account - This shows firefox completely normal.
6. Reinstalled with fresh DMGs multiple times, still all black on my primary account. 7. No extensions should be installed, as I have completely erased and installed firefox.

I download a selection of podcasts every day using the Juice podcast manager. I have been doing this for many years - until the last FireFox upgrade to Ver 62.0 (64-bit). Since the upgrade, many of my podcasts still work, but many do not. Instead of having names like ... 5LiveSciencePodcast-20180916-5LiveScienceBiomimicry.mp3 (size = 46,572 KB) ...or... NewsQuizExtra-20180914-Episode3.mp3 (size = 41,596 KB)
they now have names like p06l2jy6.mp3 (size = 1KB) ...or... p06lbfhf.mp3 (size = 1KB)
They don't play - but with a size of 1KB, I wouldn't expect them to. Of the 13 podcasts I downloaded yesterday, 7 are 1KB files with these funny titles.
Maybe this has nothing to do with FireFox - but if not, it's an unfortunate coincidence that it started immediately after the FireFox upgrade.
I wanted to downgrade FireFox to the previous version to see if it was that, but the website warned me off doing that, saying that I would lose stored settings etc, and that my PC would blow up and springs and cogwheels would come flying out of it. Well, no - it didn't really say all that - but it kind of gave the impression that something pretty serious would happen.

My tabs are always crashing, whether it's facebook, youtube, gmail or something else. I've sent many reports to Mozilla but nothing, I've been now using Chrome for somewhile and I don't have this problem. I like Firefox because it's fast, but if Firefox is not fixable, I'm moving to Chrome.

I run Swagbucks nCrave for the AGCs. The irritant is this: *every* time the content window timer hits 0 and goes to next thing, that new window always gets in front of any Firefox tab or window I got open, so I have to alt+tab back to whatever I was watching.
Is there a way to change the settings so that Firefox doesn't throw me to every newly opened window? It's really irritating.

I'm having trouble using some add-ons from inside the overflow menu.
Launching it from toolbar directly works perfectly. But when launching from inside the menu, the window width seems to be locked and can't be resized.
On images I'm using ghostery as example. It also happens with pushbullet and some other extensions.
I'm using macOS. A friend that uses Windows also tested this scenarios and both worked just fine.
Don't know if it is a untracked bug. So I'm reporting here first although I know the dev team is using bugzilla.

I observed on my computer (Windows 7) that Firefox (62.0) doesn't use the HOSTS file if a proxy auto-configuration file have been set.
For instance, if I add "0.0.0.0 facebook.com" & "0.0.0.0 www.facebook.com" in the HOSTS file, I can't ping them from the console, but I can reach them by using Firefox.
I need to specify a PAC file in my organization, but I would like Firefox uses HOSTS file before using the PAC script.

When I click on a bookmark from the Firefox home page Firefox freezes and has to be shut down then when I attempt to reopen Firefox I get a message that it is running but not responding. Then it attempts to restore session and is not successful. I have to start a new session. If I manually add a tab and then use a bookmark to go to the tab it seems to work without a problem. Windows 10 64 bit with Firefox 62, 64 bit. Any ideas or suggestions? I have tried in safe mode and it seems OK. Turned off all the extensions and the problem is still there. The only way I have found to make Firefox work is to manually open a new tab and use that tab.
Please advise and thanks in advance -

Hello,
I am using Firefox on different OS. I have read some threads about my question, but I still don´t understand.
Let´s start with the OS / Firefox / Citrix Receiver I am using:
1. Linux (Fedora 28) with Firefox 60.2.0esr (64bit) and Citrix Receiver 13.10.0.20 2. MacOS 10.12.6 with Firefox 61.0.1 (64bit) and Citrix Receiver 12.9.0 (52) 3. Windows 10 with Firefox 62.0 (64bit) and Citrix Receiver 14.12.0.18020
Additional info: on none of these systems, the citrix receiver is listed under "about:plugins".
My question/problem is: When I open a remote desktop with systems 2 & 3, it is opened in a new window on the system. But when I open it on system 1, Firefox opens it in a tab in the browser, that seems to mean that here, HTML5 is used. As I read quite in some threads, it might be a problem that Firefox is not supporting the plugin sinver version 52. But why is then used the external program on MacOS and Windows?
Overall, I want to understand why this happens. Can somebody help me in understanding what is happening here from the start?

Hi!
My name is Annie, I would like some help with the outgoing sound not working when I call using the free calling pad inside of Gmail using the Firefox browser on my MacBook Pro. So people can't hear me when I talk but I can hear them, and yet, I know my outgoing sound works because if I test it using Skype for example, people can hear me, and if I go into the Sound Settings in Preferences, the little Volume Bar that measures sound goes up and down when I speak, so the device seems to be able to capture my voice because it's moving up and down. Can someone help me to troubleshoot the outgoing sound issue? I attached a print screen of the little box message I get up top left whenever I call someone, and they pick up and can't hear me, then this box opens up, but no matter what I select, whether it's internal computer, or earbuds etc., they all don't work for them to hear me.
Yes, I have tried it using Chrome, however, I would SO MUCH rather to use it on my Firefox, why? Because Chrome for some weird reason makes my laptop shut down while Firefox never does this, and so I would truly love if my sound worked on here, on the Firefox browser! I would be extremely grateful to whoever knows how to troubleshoot and resolve this!! Thanks a million!!

My default printer is an HP laser printer. I also have a receipt printer that is not my default printer. In windows, the receipt printer is properly set up to use receipt paper. However, in Firefox, when I select the receipt printer, the paper settings come up as Letter. If I have the receipt printer set as my default printer, Firefox seems to acknowledge the settings and prints according to the size of the receipt. The problem only occurs when I print to a printer that is not the default. How do I get Firefox to use the windows settings for my printer?

the downloaded .pdf LOOKS fine on screen. prints out with wonky kerning and text size. But if I save the file, open it in Adobe and print it, it prints fine. Is there some set-up I am missing to do directly from my Firefox browser? I am tired of this extra step.

I've cleared the cache and cookies, I've unchecked "hardware acceleration" and I've disabled the plugin's, deleted the cache and cookies, and I still can't see embedded Youtube videos on a website, all I get is a blank white box. I see them on Safari and Chrome. I've read many things on the web and still can't find out what is wrong. Why does Firefox make it so difficult to do basic things like view a video on a website that most people need to see? Most people will not go looking up how to fix it and I have to explain to a client that doesn't even know what to refresh a page how to fix this problem. I get so frustrated with Firefox that I don't use it for most things any longer. The default settings need to be for what most people need.

Durante una scansione con l'antivirus Avast, mi è uscito nelle voci estensioni dannose la voce: "Telemetry Coverage - Mozilla Firefox"
Ho fatto elimina, rieseguito la scansione e non mi dava piu questo messaggio. Ho disinstallato firefox, reinstallato con ripristino e poi ho ri-effettuato l'analisi e mi ha ridato il problema. Non ho installato nulla se non Adblock (adblockplus.org), ma comunque nei componenti aggiuntivi non mi dà nessun componente che non sia adblock ne prima ne dopo la scansione (con eliminazione del add-on dannoso tramite avast) Ho effettuato anche l'analisi con malware bytes, ma non mi dà nulla ne prima ne dopo.
Se qualcuno può aiutarmi lo ringrazio in anticipo.
