For starters, I'm using Firefox 133.0 (64-bit), Windows 10, Logitech Trackman Marble Mouse (and I've used this mouse forever and a day)

In ONLY Google Messages for web, the vertical scrollbar is skinny and doesn't work well. I have to click above it and then it's hit or miss if it will scroll.

I have NO issues with any other website so far. In Chrome and Brave browsers I have no issues with Google Messages. It seems this is uniquely a Firefox with Google Messages issue.

I'm curious if there is a way to fix this. One time for grins, I right clicked the scroll bar and selected Inspect. I was able to figure out how to widen the scrollbar and that helped; however, it was only for that session. I did not see a way to "save" those changes.

PS: This mouse does NOT have a scroll wheel. Using a mouse WITH a scroll wheel works. But then again, with my Logitech marble mouse I depend on the scroll bars and have no issues with any other website. Thanks.

Hi all.

I'm wondering if someone can help me with an issue I'm having with the Firefox autofill function. Which has just stopped working.

Absolutely a first world problem BUT its super irritating as now I have to manually input card details when I purchase anything online. And as I purchase materialS all the time for work it's v laborious...

I'm on a Macbook Air 2020 M1 and just updated it to OS 14.6.1.

Firefox def seems to remember my various card details as they pop up on the form fields; but then disappear as soon as I try and select the one I want to use?

Ive poked around in Settings but toggling on & off / resetting etc doesn't seem to make any difference.

Any advice gratefully welcomed ;)

Every two or three hours, firefox locks my computer by creating thousands of tracks and temporary file megabytes. I have to power button the computer off and restart.

I have tried ridding of cache etc, but nothing works. I am running win 7 64x ultimate, and the latest firefox browser, but this issue has been going on with previous versions and over years. Yesterday the problem corrupted some files that sfc /scannow can't even fix.

Please help.

Whenever I use (control + shift + V) to paste to the format in my google sheet it inputs the value into the cell below my selected cell. Please see my attachment.

It may look like I selected both cells but I made several attempts & got the same result.

Firefox.exe task is suspended. I cannot end it with task manager, and I cannot kill it with taskkill. The message i get is as follows:

C:\Windows\System32>taskkill /f /pid 4196 ERROR: The process with PID 4196 could not be terminated. Reason: Access is denied.

Due to this, i cannot completely clean the cache. Please help

I really like Firefox - I just have to say that up front. I don't want to have to change to another browser, but...

I see articles going back to at least 2020 about CPU usage running up to 100% and multiple processes open that at least double or triple the number of tabs that are open. My recent experience is that this phenomenon is getting worse and I'm wondering if it will ever be resolved, or if I have to look elsewhere.

Thanks

Windows 11 24H2

On computer restart or program restart, firefox moves all previous windows from primary monitor to secondary monitor.

Before restart, I usually have 10+ windows open on primary monitor and 1-3 windows open on secondary monitor. After restart, all windows are opened on secondary monitor and I manually move them each to the primary monitor. It seems like they open on primary monitor, but immediately move to the secondary monitor.

If I make each individual window a small window on its corresponding monitor and shut down firefox, the windows will open on the correct monitor on the next restart...but if those windows are minimized, they will open on the wrong monitor on restart.

Is there any way to fix this or automate the window moving process?

Thanks

For around a week, I've had issues with Discord Voice Chat on Firefox that I don't believe I've had before the latest update. Whenever I try to connect to Voice Chat, I can see Discord picking up my audio, but I can't hear anything from other people in voice chat nor can they hear me. I can hear sounds and music from Discord itself outside of voice chat.

I believe this is a Firefox issue since I can still access Discord Voice Chat through other browsers like Opera.

I've tried downgrading and it still has the same issue, and also going into troubleshooting mode. Nothing has worked, except for deleting Discord's cache, but that stopped working too.

If anyone needs other details let me know and I can provide it to the best of my abilities, thank you

help me find why I can't open my emails: reagan.com and gmail.com. For awhile I couldn't open anything, but now I'm able to open most sites, but my emails have an hourglass sign next to the title at the top of the tab. What does that mean? I've tried turning off my VPN but that didn't help.

Been using Firefox since the 90s, on macbookAir since 2010s, Firefox is my only preferred browser.

But this glitch has been happening for many years, and I just don't understand why Firefox don't fix it.

I frequently reboot my Firefox (generally by Force Quit, sometimes by quit/X-ing out.

Inevitably, when I reopen Firefox, the previous tabs don't open... that is, until I hit the "trouble resorting pages" button, followed by full restoration of tabs.

Can we just skip the "didn't work" button, and just get it to work?

For about 2 weeks now, the audio volume on youtube videos fluctuates up and down. The volume starts off low when a person starts to talk. For example, when the person in the video starts to talk, their voice volume is very low then within a second or two, the volume rises to normal as they talk. When they finish a sentence and start a new one (when there is a short pause in the audio) their voice is again at a very low volume, rising to normal in a second or two. This repeats as they speak throughout the entire video. This is not specific to any youtube video or youtube channel, it happens on all youtube videos. I have tried updating all audio drivers in Windows 11 - no improvement. I have tried rebooting the computer - no improvement Firefox is up to date, version 133.0 I have tried watching the same videos using Chrome and I do not have this problem. Any help correcting this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Brad

Hello! After the recent update, any text I insert remains without spaces and all words are written together. I disabled all extensions: no result. The problem did not occur in other browsers.

logged into mozilla and it ended up in a loop where it kept asking me to turn on caret browsing. every time I hit no it popped right back up immediately. I hit to stop showing the box and clicked no, but now every time I hit the shift key it opens some developer tool box in the bottom of the screen. hitting f7 again does nothing. i can't get the box to come back. i can't make it stop. everything I am seeing online is not helping or references tools or options that i can't locate in firefox. please help.

'Linked In' technical support are telling me that I am unable to see certain pages on their system most likely because my Firefox Browser (which is fully up to date) is using DNS. They said to remove DNS. Is this wise advice and if so how do I do that and what difference will it make to my day to day use of firefox?

I cannot enter any text when I load firefox. The cursor just sits there blinking. Finally firefox unlocks and I can type. Like this questionaire I'm typing. I have been on this page for almost ten minutes trying to fill out this form. Now I can type something. If I stop, Firefox may lock up again. What is happening?

Hello!

Switching between tabs used to be instant. Ever since updating to v133, it takes over a second (both through the Ctrl-Tab shortcut and through clicking on another tab in the tab bar), which is really really bothering me.

The tab bar has also started taking over a second to react visually when I hover over it with the mouse, even with thumbnail previews disabled. I have no idea what's causing this. Please help.

I've been on the phone to Apple support and just returned from the local Apple store and genius bar. My Mac Pro laptop was too old and would not support the newer OS. In installing a OS, I lost my bookmarks and the menu bar that gave easy access. I've since purchased a new Apple Air laptop and everything from the old laptop has been migrated over.

However, working with Apple support and the local genius bar Apple store rep., nobody has been able to help me rebuild the links to a menu bar for quick access. Presently I have some bookmarked. I have to go to the book marks to access any particular URL. All the directions on the web have not provided way to do this!
