Firefox Community Forum

I have an account with Songsterr. It's a music tabs site.

I moved over to Firefox as my primary browser relatively recently & I've noticed that the captions in Songsterr are all messed up. I've been on to Songsterr about it & they cannot solve it but, on a whim, I checked Songsterr in Safari & everything appears normal so I'm going to assume for the moment that this is a firefox related issue.

I've added 4 screenshots. The first two are from Safari & show how the captions should appear. The second two are from Firefox & you can see that it's all messed up.

I found an article on Reddit that may be related but I wanted to check here first & see if any of you could shed any light.

I'm using

Thanks. :)

Hello. As the subject suggests, all my tabs were closed on their own when I opened Firefox. Open last session tabs on startup setting is on. I had a few hundreds of tabs, 300+ or something (ik it's a lot). All gone... I had some important searches among them. Is there a way to get all my tabs back? Please help. Thank you.

Hi Mozilla Team,

I'm currently using Firefox version 142.0 (64-bit) and I'm having trouble setting up a proxy. I've tried configuring it through the usual settings under Settings > General > Network Settings > Settings..., but unable to configure the Proxy in Firefox 142.0 (64-bit), but no luck.

Is there a known issue with proxy configuration in this version? Are there any new settings or changes I should be aware of that might affect proxy setup?

Thanks in advance for your help!

'I am posting this for a third time, because I am absolutely sure it is caused by the latest Firefox update.

I am typing this into Notepad and copy/pasting it to the text box on the site.

I am legally blind, and I am very dependant on the Windows Magnifier. Yesterday I took the latest Firefox update and after installing it, the Windows Magnifier will no longer follow the text cursor on web pages rendered in Firefox. It will follow typing in the address bar and the search bar on the task bar, but it will not on web pages rendered in Firefox.

I do not have this problem with Chrome or Librewolf.

I had made two earlier posts with no response from Support. I have been trying desperately to figure out what waws going on as I was moving links, bookmarks & passwords into Librewolf.

I tried to refresh Firefox. It didn't work. I tried safe mode. It didn't work. I even tried a different profile. It didn't work. I even tired uninstall & reinstall Firefox. It didn't work.

I even called the Microsoft Disability desk and had them check my magnifier settings, and they are fine, and yet even if I toggled them on & of--it still didn't work.

So finally, out of desperation, I did the dreaded System Restore.

I rolled it back to August 18th and sat and waited.

And though I had to relog into Firefox--it worked!

and i have been surfing happily all evening until I loaded the Spotify player page and it wouldn't play. Okay this was weird because I had been using it all week and suddenly it wouldn't play. I did a search, and apparently it wasn't just me. I opened the About Firefox and there it was--the dreaded update.

Believe me, I really didn't want to restaret the browser, but it was doomed to happen anyway.

And guess what--the Windows Magnifier view won't follow the text cursor in web pages rendered in Firefox--Again!

The Spotify player plays again but.....

If you don't believe me, open the Windows Magnifier, dock it on your task bar, and try to type into a web page. The view just goes cockeyed.

So yes, the update has a bug. And for all the people who are visually handicapped and use the Windows Magnifier we are cursing you right now and hoping for a quick fix before we all have to move to Chrome.

You sighted people have no idea how frustrating this is.

At least I'm glad it's not my PC.

But if it doesn't get fixed, I"m absolutely done with this browser. It is now unusable for people with visual disabilities.

Good luck.

Thank you. '

So I just updated to Firefox version 142.0, and noticed there is a picture in picture option in the URL bar now. Don't get me wrong. I get the idea, but it's not for me. Is there an option to turn this off within the Firefox settings? I'm currently still on Windows 10— which I'm grateful Firefox is still supporting at the moment— version 1909 and the picture in picture controls setting is currently unchecked but still shows up in the URL bar for some reason. Can anyone help with this?

I've yet to test on other sites and haven't found any solutions while looking it up, every 3d element is shown as a black box, I don't really have any other way to describe it

When I have multiple tabs open, around the 6th tab, the entire computer freezes. I have to press the physical button to shut down and restart. This behavior started with the last Firefox update. It doesn't happen when I use Brave browser. What changed to cause this?

I'm running Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint mint 100 - 1.0 version 141.0.3 (64 bit) on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon. These are the latest versions of Mint and of Firefox for Mint.

Latest version of Firefox browser (142.1) recently installed on my laptop and desktop both running Windows 10. The former continues to support Flightradar 24. The latter no longer does. Message reads 'Unfortunately, your current browser does not support WebGL2 . . . most major browsers (including Firefox) do'! Is there a reason for this anomaly, please? Plus a solution?

I recently added ChatGPT as a search engine option. I tried to use the voice interface to simply ask the question instead of typing it out. An error message quickly appeared that stated "To use voice mode, you'll need to enable your microphone and try again." I could not find a way to grant this permission. The only setting mentioning "permissions" was in privacy & security. When I click on "settings" I receive the following message showing websites which have asked for permission so that I could choose to grant it or not, but, what it does not provide is a way for me to grant spontaneously if I choose to. ChatGPT has not requested permission so how do I, without a request from a site, choose to grant them permission to access and use the mic on the laptop so that I can simply talk to it?

today my trusty firefox browser now refuses to load the website https://www.newsmax.com

the browser still loads all the other websites normally the problem persists in troubleshoot mode clearing cache does not help restoring the OS to 3 days earlier does not help

have been using intego antivirus for a few months with no problem newsmax.com continues to load normally on edge browser on same machine newsmax.com continues to load normally on opera browser on same machine

windows7 OS

i have a backup computer in next room also running Win7 and firefox and it loads newsmax.com fine same as usual

makes no sense to me any ideas?

I find many articles that appear on the Firefox new tab page interesting. Since I am not able to get to an article right then, I would like to read them later. Is there a archive or library of all the articles where I can browse through them?

Using an Android tablet (OnePlus tab 3) I can use the pen to write in the address bar but I cannot use a pen to write in any text fields on websites while browsing in Firefox (on google.com for example, or writing this), which works on other browsers like Chrome or duckduckgo browser. The touch input of the pen is recognized to scroll zoom or select text, but not to write. Is this feature not supported on Firefox or am I missing something

Thanks
