I had the Capital One Shopping extension show up on my extensions list, I think from maybe a misclick while checking out online, and so I uninstalled it yesterday on my laptop because it was slowing my browser down and throwing annoying popups. I didn't and don't trust an extension like this with my browsing data. So I was concerned today when I pulled up a Firefox window on my desktop PC (same Firefox account) and a second tab opened up automatically with the Uninstall Survey for this extension. I filled that out yesterday when I uninstalled the extension. I checked, and the extension has been uninstalled--it no longer appears on my extensions list on any device. I assume that it's just that this is the first time I've opened Firefox on the same account on a different device, and Firefox is somehow repeating the prompt to open the survey tab. But I've never had this happen before and I don't love that it's a tracking extension that did it. Do I have anything to be concerned about here? Or is this a normal fluke of Firefox accounts on multiple devices and not the fault of this extension?

Hello,

I have noticed that in Firefox settings, the option “Override the colors specified” with the choice “Never” has disappeared.

This option was very useful to me for testing web accessibility. Indeed, by modifying the default colors and selecting “Override the colors specified” with the “Never” option, I was able to force Firefox to display the colors specified by the page author while still highlighting the default colors (those not specified by the author).

Could you please let me know why this setting was removed? Is there an alternative or another way to achieve the same behavior in Firefox today?

Thank you in advance for your help.

All of a sudden one day my bookmarks vanished. This is annoying, but what's worse is that I'm unable to add more. I click on the little star at the top to try to save a page, and nothing happens. I go into the sidebar, try to do it there, nothing happens. I click Command D (on a Mac) to try it through the shortcut and nothing happens. I've tried signing in under different log ins to see if that's the problem, but that doesn't work either. I'm totally confused. Any help is appreciated.

Hey, please fix this. After update to firefox 139 video player from youtube can't play. The setting video as low as possible, but still the same. I tried on other website work normally, I think the problem is the flash player, apparently not. Please fix this, ASAP.

Hi, Can I customize contrast control per site, for some sites I want it to be same as system, but for some I want to keep it as `off`.

When I use `same as system` setting then github changed file section doesn't render the changes with color. Refer screenshots.

Hello, there is a problem with Youtube video hosting in the FireFox browser. When trying to play a video, there is an endless attempt to play the video. Attempts to fix the problem, including using about:config, were unsuccessful. We kindly ask you to let us know how to solve this problem, given that the problem is related to FireFox, since everything works properly in Chromium-based browsers. Thank you in advance!

hi Firefox 115.24.0esr (64-bit) do not allow my see this website .But Chrome works good.

Code 500 UPSSS! An error occurred while loading the page. Make sure you are connected to the internet and try again.

How to fix this .

I'm currently on Firefox Nightly on desktop running the latest version. I wanted to know how to turn my Firefox Tools icons back from just having icons at the bottom to the list of icons with their names like before. I've attached both images, one from another computer running an older version of nightly which is what I want to return back to.

If there isn't a way to change it back, I would like to suggest this as an option to be able to easily turn back to a list type.

Firefox 139.0.4. version is also not good! Uploading videos to Youtube does not work with it! It does not move from zero percent! As I wrote earlier, the problem started with version 138.0.4. and is still ongoing! Uploading videos works with other browsers! I am waiting for the problem to be solved! If I wrote my letter in the wrong place, please forward it to the authorities! At the moment I could write a letter here, I can't really find a topic where this would be discussed! My OS Win10 64 bit. Thank you!

I have three email accounts thru (comcast, gmail and outlook). I have each of these email accounts bookmarked on my Firefox page. It used to be all I had to do was click on the bookmarked tab and the email account opened immediately. But, lately, each of these three accounts requires a sign-in before it will open my email account. One even requires a two-step process requiring I list a different email to receive a code to open the current email account I'm trying to open. This is a recent occurence and I wondered if it was something Firefox included in their more recent version of Firefox? If so, please tell me how to get rid of this sign-in process! I have many security processes to protect my accounts and do not need this additional required sign-in process! Please tell me how I can get rid of this requirement. It is a pain to have to re-sign-in each time I try to access my email which I do several times a day. Thank you for any help you can give me to fix this problem. Barbara Thomas

Recently, when I try to buy something off a website, firefox will blank my personal info then when I refill that it blanks my credit card info. Back and forth. Chrome works fine, what gives?

For days I have been seeing Firefox be very slow to load a page (as in minutes) or stop working entirely. At the same time Chrome works fine. Mac Mail has become intermittent as well. I have uninstalled Norton products and changed Network proxy settings many times. Nothing helps. I have created new profiles. I switch between profiles. I have hacked into my WiFi router. Nothing, nothing helps. Safari hangs up too. Firefox on my android phone continues to work properly when using my Wifi router -the same router my Mac Studio connects to the internet with. I can access my third party mail service via Firefox on my android phone. Both FireTV devices work. I am at my wit's end. At this point I have shifted all of my work over to Chrome.

I have cleared caches. I have gotten rid of all cookies. I have restarted Firefox and rebooted my computer countless times.

Mac OS Sequoia 15.5 Firefox 138.04

Forum users : Gmail on my Windows 10 PC runs very slowly when the Lastpass extension is enabled. This ONLY happens with Gmail. In fact I get an alert that Lastpass is slowing down Firefox. Gmail is fine when the extension is removed. Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so have you found a solution other than removing the Lastpass extension?

Thanks!

Scenario.

Open Firefox on Ubuntu Arm64 (Snapdragon X Elite, Asus Vivobook S15).

Open any page with scrolling.

Try to scroll page via mouse-wheel

Result: Firefox crashes.

Hello, using Windows Version 22H2 (Build 19045.5965), Firefox 139.0.4, Thunderbird 139.0.2, I can drag multiple emails from Thunderbird but not drop them into Firefox (the stop symbol appears and does not let me finish the action). However, dragging and dropping single emails does work. Firefox does not understand the imap address but the drop is registered which is all that is relevant to me. Is this a bug/missing feature in Firefox or a problem with Thunderbird and Firefox on Windows? Or is there a way to do it by simply adjusting (preferrably very few) settings? Dragging and dropping multiple emails using Thunderbird and Firefox on Linux Mint works fine. Dragging and dropping multiple emails from the Windows Explorer to Firefox also works fine. In testing, the issue only arose using Thunderbird + Firefox, Chromium-based browsers also worked fine with Thunderbird. If this is the wrong forum to ask such a question because this should rather be in a bug tracker or something similar, please let me know. If this should be on the Thunderbird thread instead of Firefox, also let me know. Thank you for your help.

Clearly your crappy browser system won't stop crashing my tabs with its stupid updates randomly out of no where while I'm in the middle of working on something. I can't even report bugs in games anymore because I go to pastebin to post a crash log, and firefox decides to say 'RESTART FIREFOX TO CONTINUE USING' for no reason. I am very angry, this happens so often its ridiculous. I have updates set to "check and choose" and yet your browser keeps crashing all tabs all windows telling me to restart to continue using, and only today did I realize it said it was related to an update. This is unacceptable behavior. This browser is becoming unbearable. Crashing/updating in the middle of my work is very bad, and this is getting old. Obviously this time it was an unwarranted update, who knows if my browser has even been crashing at all. Just keeps getting disabled for your forced updates. I need them disabled, NOW. I choose when to update. NOT YOU.
