Ai overview is painfully inaccurate and I am hoping to find a way to disable it on my google searches, if that is not possible, what search engine would you recommend?

What the title says. Firefox just isn't playing any sound whatsoever.

Troubleshooting:

• Volume mixer indicates that Firefox is using my speakers, along with all other apps. When playing a YouTube video, the green bar is not bouncing. However, all other programs that play sound do so successfully and their green bars are bouncing (see attachment).

• Other web browsers play sound successfully.

• Restarting Firefox and my computer did not help.

• Switching the default sound device and changing back did not help.

• Changing to headphones made no change.

• Tabs are not muted.

• Autoplay settings in about:preferences showed that audio and video were disabled, however changing this setting to allow video and audio, then restarting both Firefox and the computer did not fix the problem. I have no idea how that setting was even changed to begin with. O_o

• Started Firefox in troubleshooting mode; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in a different profile; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in private mode; still no sound.

• Tried ending the audiodg.exe process in task manager and restarted; still no sound.

• Double checked media.autoplay.blocking_policy, was set to 0.

• Double checked media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground -- changed from true to false, restarted Firefox; still no sound.

• Disabled hardware acceleration; still no sound.

• Refreshed Firefox; still no sound.

• Complete uninstall, including the usage of BCUninstaller to uninstall "leftovers". Reinstalled. Still no sound.

I have Apollo installed on my computer and I've reached out to them before for similar issues, but the dev was insistent that Apollo does not cause sound issues. I'm somewhat sceptical, but they're not being helpful at all so I thought I'd ask here, and disclose usage of Apollo so that all bases are covered.

Thank you for your time.

I understand POCKET to be closing and was prompted to download my 'Pocket List' to be exported before deadline to become inaccessible. I'm using the FIREFOX browser. I did so per directions. I received an email with link to download an archive of my pocket List. I can view in my 'downloads' a Microsoft Excel Comma Separated Value File. But it will not open. How do I open and access my Pocket List ?

I've had several days where I see this message and cannot sign in the Daily Mail (which I pay for) because I receive this message ecure Connection Failed

I cannot find a solution and it doesn't happen every time on the site but several times a week. I have VPN, and enhanced tracking which I've tried turning them off but I get the same reply. I'd like a fairly simple answer if possible since I'm not tech smart but need help to see if I'm doing something wrong. I did submit a complaint the Daily Mail who said the problem's coming from Firefox. Thanks for your help

[I use firefox on Mac, Windows, and Android, but the issue seems to effect me mostly on Mac and Windows) I'm just guessing this to be a browse issue. However I won't miond the post being moved to a more relevant sub-forum.

I keep arriving at this solution when searching for a solution to the increasing number of sites using the irritatingly abused stay/leave page question-dialogue box which pops up when i want to leave a page. The common solution appears to be https://userscripts.org/scripts/show/23865 However, when this page loads, I just get an empty box which looks like one of those ones which normally contain scripts to run or stop running certain things, or even to add or embed items etc.

When researching I often need to load lots of pages top go through. however, when i then need to close them all, i end up manually having to complete these irritating dialogies which are OBVIOUSLY really meant for pages where you may be filling in a form, or editing something, and perhaps have not completed filling it in. However, many sites irritatingly abuse this and just add the feature anyway. It just tells yiou they are dodgy rather than trustworthy. Any up-to-date advice as on July 2025? Any trusted new extensions/addons for this as with auto-cookie form-fillers perhaps?

Hello,

I'm facing an issue where my microphone does not work in Google Meet when using Firefox, even though I’ve granted all necessary permissions. This problem is specific to Firefox, as the microphone works perfectly fine in Google Chrome.

I prefer using Firefox because of its convenient screenshot features, but this microphone issue has caused major inconvenience during important meetings.

Kindly help me resolve this issue.

Thank you.

When pasting an image from the clipboard in Outlook Web Access in Edge there's right mouse button option to "Paste as Image". This places the image inline. In Firefox there's no option like this.

Safe mode (troubleshooting mode) doesn't fix this. Ctrl + V or Shift + Ctrl + V doesn't fix it. Shift RMB to get Firefox menu does show Paste and Paste without formatting but it doesn't paste any inline image.

I've attached a screenshot of Edge and Firefox with the Outlook context menu and Firefox context menu.

Firefox version: 140.0.4 (64-bit) Edge version: 138.0.3351.83 (Official build) (64-bit)

In trying to access (log in)Social Security Administration, I received "Bad Request""your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header exceeds server limit" I was able to log in with Chrome. Can this be corrected by mozzilla?

Bonjour, Depuis 1 semaine à 10 jours, il m'est impossible de naviguer avec Firefox. La lenteur est exécrable. J'ai dû mettre 1 heure à pouvoir afficher cette page, incluant tout ce que vous faites pour décourager les gens de vous écrire. Votre dernière MAJ doit être ratée. Avec Edge, je n'ai pas ce problème. La navigation est fluide. Je vais aussi tester Chrome. Cordialement,
