Youtube no longer loads properly in Firefox. The items video thumbnails are spread downward one at a time. no longer full screens of thumbnail.s Youtube looks fine in Chrome and IE but not in Firefox. I won't use Firefox anymore for Youtube and eventually will migrate all of my browsing elsewhere unless there is a fix?

Since an update a while back when clicking on a u/n field, an option allows anyone on your pc to view saved logins! Further to that they can reveal your passwords. Why allow such a security risk? What a joke guys this is terrible.
Why can't Firefox v69.0.1 64 bit for Windows select text in Google search results
FF just updated to v69.0.1 64 bit on my Windows 7 PC, and now I can't select text in Google search results. The cursor changes to a hand and pointing finger when moved ov… (ulteriori informazioni)
FF just updated to v69.0.1 64 bit on my Windows 7 PC, and now I can't select text in Google search results. The cursor changes to a hand and pointing finger when moved over the text in Google results. It then behaves as if it's trying to select an area of an image where the entire image moves, and the cursor changes to a black circle with a slash through it. I usually drag and drop images to a local folder like that. I CAN select text from the very beginning or very end of the individual Google results. But I've never had any problems selecting text in Google results like this.
Funny as the 32 bit copy of Firefox v69.0.1 on my Windows 10 notebook doesn't have this problem. And the problem seems to be specific to Google. I haven't noticed any problems selecting text on other web pages.
Anyone else have this problem, or know how to resolve it?

If I add a NEW bookmark using Bookmark this Page feature OR by dragging and dropping the URL to the Bookmarks menu or toolbar, it will have the wrong FAVORITE icon. (It chooses a consistent one from some older bookmarks I have... let's call it "random" as there's nothing special about that older bookmark, but it's mostly consistent (more below on that.).
If I drag from the URL line to the DESKTOP (or from a Bookmarks toolbar folder of links) it will have a different icon. The icon is again generally consistent but again random in that it has no relation to the item being linked. I can't seem to figure out what condition causes one or the other. Note that every once in a while it will also give me this alternate icon for a URL dragged to the menu/toolbar. Once it's done that, that will forever be the icon for that link - even if I delete the link and start over. Sometimes it gives me the Firefox default icon (when it should give me a favorite from the site) but that's in a few cases. Once again, I can't seem to figure out what condition causes one or the other (or the other).
If I look at the Library pull down tool/menu of "Recent Highlights" it will be correct. However, if I look at the Library -> Bookmarks under Recently Bookmarked it will generally be wrong. Sometimes it will be correct in both but continue to give me the wrong icon (Firefox default) when I drag it from the URL line or Bookmarks menu to the desktop.
If the very FIRST thing I do is to Bookmark this Page upon arriving, it all works normally. But if I drag the URL first before doing that, I get the errant behaviors above. Some can eventually correct by deleting and using the Bookmark this Page feature but generally they retain some errant behavior. There is no consistent workaround that works (at all) or consistently.
Note that the correct favorite icon appears in the TAB header, so it's not an issue with fetching the correct icon or there being one supplied by the web developer.
This has been going on for a while... a month or more. It's probably related to an update but I can't tell you which specifically as I usually do them as a matter of course when they come out. I don't know if it was there in 67.* but it's been there in 68 and it's in 69. I've been through many reboots, full shutdowns, even an unrelated hardware swap of the disk drive to a different (but identical) machine, etc. It's not a transitional problem.
Also note that the other browsers on my computer seem to be working normally including MSIE and Chrome.

I have a Levono x223 with a short monitor running Window 7. In some websites, such a ebay, only the center portion of a pop up window fraem will show, such as clicking on the tracking number, resulting in my not being able to close the window. So far the only work around is to right click on the window and chose > This frame>Show only this frame> then click on the Go back one page arrow. I would like to find a way to either close the window with a key stroke, or some other simple way to close the window.
Firefox extremely slow to load pages after startup

Seems to have completely started on its own. I fixed the same issue last week with a proper uninstall and reinstall of Firefox, but this week the same issue has returned. Going back and forth between tabs is also quite slow. I am still running Windows 7 professional 64-bit. I currently run Firefox Quantum 69.0 (64-bit). The same is on my other Windows 7 and Windows 10 PCs and I do not have the same issue. IE and Google chrome on this PC also do not experience the same issue. I cannot pin this to any Windows update(s) or other software installation(s) or updates. How can I fix this and continue to have all the same tabs open up on my home startup without getting this frustrating delay as well as not getting the delays when going from tab to tab?
Composing gmail - unwanted line breaks in FF 69.0

I had posted another question here about 69.0 being the genesis of bad line breaking, and now a new thing I discovered.
In Firefox - and only firefox - if I'm composing a new message, pressing enter generates a single line break as I'd like and expect - new paragraphs require two "enter" presses.
EXCEPT, since 69.0, if I include a bulleted or numbered list in the message, when I end the bullets or numbering, the text below it inserts a forced double space with every "enter" press. That is, single-spacing before the bullet/number list; double-spacing after it.
Here is a "selection source" of a short message I composed:
======= <div id=":ol" class="Am Al editable LW-avf tS-tW tS-tY" hidefocus="true" aria-label="Message Body" g_editable="true" role="textbox" aria-multiline="true" style="direction: ltr; min-height: 376px;" tabindex="1" contenteditable="true"> Before the bulleted list line 1<br>
Before the bulleted list line 2<br>
Before the bulleted list line 3<br><div><ul><li>Bullet list line 1<br></li><li>Bullet list line 2</li><li>Bullet list line 3</li></ul><p>After the bulleted list line 1</p><p>After the bulleted list line 2</p><p> After the bulleted list line 3
</p><br></div></div> =======
If you notice, the "enter" generated a <br> before the list, then a <p> after it. Highlighting the lines after the bullets and removing the formatting (the slashed-out T in gmail compose) changes their selection source to:
======= After the bulleted list line 1<br><br>After the bulleted list line 2<br><br>After the bulleted list line 3 =======
As you see, the <p> is replaced with a <br> and the unwanted blank lines can be edited out.
This was fine until this month when 69 took over.
I'd like to see it put back to how it was in 68.

I went to Extensions and Themes and tried to restore the previous color - tabs were gray, well aligned and visible squares. Now they are transparent and bland in the background color which is not what it was before. I have disability and working from home makes my work more difficult if i don't align distinctly the tabs in the color gray as before. It takes me more time to recognize them and click. Help please. I attach what i want to be, the gray and what is now one blue line. Looking forward Thank you Antoinette

Okay, I get that the new version of Tracking Protection can't be turned off. But the developers had no right to make a pop-up display as each site loads showing what Tracking Protection blocked. Users need to have the option to turn such notifications off, and between this and the fiasco you made blocking Adobe Flash, I am getting very close to shopping for a new browser.

Firefox menus are shown in Spanish, while I explicitly downloaded English version and have English set as the only interface language. I happen to be on a Spanish version of Windows, but this should be irrelevant for Firefox. Note that the options are shown in English.
I want the menus to be shown in English.
In the attached image, note the mix of languages: Options in English, menus and tooltip in Spanish (actually some tooltips are in English, as in the second image). Note that Spanish is not listed as an interface language. (As a bonus, no matter how many times I press Remove on Canadian and UK English languages, they re-appear. Any way to get rid of them?)
This problem happened recently; for a decade the menus were in proper English on the same Spanish version of Windows. I twice removed Firefox from the system (without deleting my data) and re-installed it from US English version, once from MSI, then from EXE, to no avail.
How can I undo an accidental "Never" for a managed login?
