Firefox Community Forum

Website: https://www.londonpicturearchive.org.uk/view-item?i=119810&WINID=1764158938344 (for example) On Safari I see there is a message overlay from the website saying "press the command key to zoom the image". On Firefox, this message is not displayed, and the website is greyed out.

I have looked at all my settings: I can't see anything wrong. Any ideas?

The "Developer Information" link in the "Developer" section of the release notes page - https://www.firefox.com/en-US/firefox/153.0/releasenotes/ - for Firefox is broken as of v153.0.

1. It attempts to open: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/153
2. MDN shows a 404 message, and offers a "153" suggested search link which eventually gets me to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/153

I have not tested this for other regions, but without the "en-US" (and possibly other "language-CountryCode" flavors), the link in the Firefox release notes page will not open the Developer release notes in MDN.

Could be an MDN configuration issue if it's not a problem with how links are generated for the Firefox release notes page.

Let me know if I can provide any additional information. Thank you in advance if this issue is fixed.

Hi, I have the settings of 'General > Startup > [checked] Open previous windows and tabs' on. Most of the time it works as expected, but there are several occurrences when all of the sudden all of my pinned tabs are gone. When this happened, I usually tried the 'Command + Shift + T' to restore them. Sometimes they came back, some other times, they don't.

Can you fix it?

It's starting to get really irritating because I can have >12 tabs pinned and it's troublesome to have to remember them all in case this happens again in the future.

Thanks!

Fire fox is automatically playing videos/sound or both if I click on a tab that has that or also in facebook, etc. How do I stop this? I want to be able to click play when I want to hear/see something.

It seems I can no longer set a link to open in same tab. There is a Government webskite that won't let me open a link in a new tab and I can no longer find a way to stop a link being opened in a new tab

I am no longer able to open in Mac Preview or save when hitting Command + P, then 'print using system dialog'. It will only print instead. For instance, I save certain web pages as PDFs using the print dialog and now it will only print when trying to use either the save or preview options. Command + P, print using system dialog, then I choose either save as PDF or open in Mac Preview, but as soon as I do one of these it will only print. I am able to use save in the drop-down list of printers, but I need to be able to open in Mac Preview.

A website I have accessed many times before now redirects me to an italian site. Is this because of the beta translation? I'd like to be able to go to the real site. mecaforpeace.org

The AccuWeather part of the Firefox homepage says I'm in Portland, Oregon, USA, but I'm not even in the same country. I tried to change it according to the directions I found earlier, but the only drop-down for my city was another city in the US but none in any other countries. So now I can't change my location. How do I change my location? It wasn't like this yesterday and I have no memory as to how it became "Portland, Oregon" since last night. I don't even have a VPN so it isn't that. How do I change it back to my area without using my exact location?

When uploading a file to attach to another app...the upload window opens up in dark mode. I don't like this and I did not change anything but it happens repeatedly. i have checked all options in settings to make sure the light mode is checked. Why is this happening. i did not change anything. Please advise. Thanks

Hi, after latest update just now, the browsers uses up to 45gb of ram within a few minutes! Not sure what it is, I am on MACOS Sequia Version 15.6.1 (24G90) macbook pro M1

Hello Everyone,

I now do have the VPN button on my toolbar but when I click on "Turn On VPN" nothing happens. I am logged in in my Firefox profile through the VPN settings under Privacy and Security.

I am on Mac OS 15.7.7, Firefox 151.0.1.

Why am I not able to turn on the VPN?

Thank you.

macOS 15.6 Firefox 141.0.3 - my preferred browser

I've seen a number of posts regarding this problem since the Firefox 141 update. I've tried a number of suggestions, although my problem seems slightly different.

I can apparently login to reddit OK but when I try to access a subreddit thread, a warning comes up - see image.

I have cleared Firefox site data, cookies, cached files, etc - problem remains.

I have restarted Firefox in Troubleshooting mode - problem remains, so not an extension.

However, https://old.reddit.com has no problems with Firefox, lets me access threads, etc and comment.

No problems accessing reddit with Safari or DuckDuckGo browser.

Hey everyone!

I just noticed that post FF's 150 update, I can no longer drag and drop folders into my DSM window. This has been a non issue for over 6 years and all of a sudden, poof. I did find that you can still to this on Safari, but long term, Mozilla and Synology need to address this. There's already a post on the Synology fourms about it and I've emailed their Support Team to see what they have to day. Posting this here in case anyone has found a workaround in the Config settings pane.

Thanks! --Brian

I just bought my boyfriend a new iMac. We are having trouble loading many sites and platforms using the latest Firefox browser. The list is growing but includes Facebook, Meetup, Wikipedia, chess.com, nytimes.com - in all cases, rather than a login screen, we get an error message or a home page loads with no access to other pages or login area. I've cleared the cache, restarted, tried going directly to the site to log in, but nothing works. Everything is fine when using Chrome, but we prefer Firefox. Is this a conflict in the new Apple OS? Is there a fix?

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?

I just updated my iMac from Mojave to Catalina 10.15.7. I thought Firefox would provide an update to convert the esr version to the standard Firefox browser since I am no longer using Mojave, but the next update is 115.15.0esr. Is that correct? My understanding is that the esr updates are just for computers using older operating systems through Mojave. I did not update to 115.15.0esr since I am not sure if that is the right version for Catalina. Any information and assistance you can provide me is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
