I restarted reinstalled deleted cookies on firefox etc etc etc I did disable antivirus/firewall and any other feature of my bitdefender suit... I did disable all my plug ins....

Yets for 1 year now I am facing the bellow problems and there is no solution (the problems do not exist in IE )

1) I cant click on annotations at the end of youtube videos... they are simply invisible its not that I see the box and nothing happens when I click there is just no box and I cant click anything.... (like when in the video the youtube sais click that corner to subscribe or to watch this and that) ... and yes on the "gear" icon I have annotations enabled...

That happens to EVERY video.


2) I cant copy paste on comments!!!!!!!! (I found a fix changing a setting on fifefox console that fixes that but after reistalling firefox obviously the setting is default again and I cant paste anymore and cant remember which setting it was or were I found the solution on the web - Also I cant understand why vanilla fresh firefox is setuped in such way so that to do not allow me to paste on youtube comments shish... )

3) if I would like to respond/mention a user in the comments I cant, you know when you type the "+" sign and start typing a name like "+Ton" and a list appears with all the relevant names like "+Tony_rr", "+Tonmatosis" etc etc and then you click on the name you want and it becomes blue and the user with that name gets a notification that I posted something referring/replying to him? well thats exactly what I cant do... if I type the plus sign "+" nothing happens no list appears is as if I type a regular character...

Only if I lets say a user named Tony posted something then I can click the "reply" option and on the comment box appears "+tony" but not with blue letters like a link just as if I typed +tony on my own...

Please some good Samaritan help me I did sent again the same question like quite a few months ago but noone helped... :( I just need firefox to do basic things.... :(

See this thread:

yea thats right the "dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled " option was the one that needed to be changed... now I have the other 2 problems to solve :(


but I cant understand how is this even acceptable? firefox should out of the box no tweak necessary be compatible with youtube and other major websites... i mean its youtube not a low traffic garage webpage of 15 year old .... why do I have to change a setting in order to have full youtube access? are they crazy? and as far as I could tell by the post changing this setting creates problems to other websites.... I didnt notice that when I had changed this setting a while ago but still... I call shenanigans on mozilla.....
