Hello

I accidently hit a few keys and afterwards Firefox started to mark the sections yellow and speaks everything I do or the text i click. I just appears on the one website, the one I was as i pressed the keys. I thinks its a feature from Firefox, because the windows voice assistant is deactivated.

In the image you can see the title marked yellow, I clicked it and a female voice speaks it or when i click a section they say "section landmark"

Thanks for helping

Anyone know how to stop floating videos on Firefox anyone know how to stop floating videos on Firefox 112.0.1? This just started happening 2 days ago. Dailymail.com is the worst. No problem at all if I use Edge. I do have ghostery but Daily Mail gives popup saying to disable my ad blocker. Strange, because I also have ghostery on Edge. Again, no problem using Edge, just Firefox. Drives me up a wall.

Hi,

I use Firefox daily, but since the last update I'm unable to make card payments on websites and I'm having to use Chrome as a backup. Up until the update everything was fine and there were no issues making payments on the Royal Mail and Asda websites. When I click the pay button on these sites, the payment window does not open up.

I've tried disabling all addons/extensions to no avail.

Regards Andrew

Every time I open a video on a website and try and enter fullscreen mode, it never lets me exit fullscreen mode. Then I have to close the entire window. Also, sometimes I have to refresh the page once or twice to even get in to fullscreen mode. Google is only showing me stuff about Firefox fullscreen mode, NOT fullscreen mode for videos, which is the actual problem.

I have the bookmarks set to "always show" on my macbook, and there is no issue with the bookmarks when in window mode, but when fullscreen they disappear :( Additionally, when I set firefox in windows mode, there is a white bar at the top that does not leave. It is about the side of the tab section in the browser.

Ever since the last two updates to Firefox, I can't use the browser without a lot of trouble. It won't launch for 15 minutes; links take several minutes to load; it's just not reliable anymore. The Firefox on my laptop works just fine since I refused to update it. I've tried starting in safe mode; disabling all add-ons; clearing the cache and history; uninstalling and reinstalling. Nothing works. I'm using Firefox 112.0.1 64 bit. Windows 10. How can I get Firefox to work again on my desktop?

I don't know what happened. Firefox totally changed its look on me. It seemed it wiped out everything, as if I was a new user. I did a refresh not thinking what it was so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. But this is NOT the FF I've always used. It looks like Chrome!

Luckily, I had written down my settings, preferences, add ons and even changes I made to about:config settings. But for some reason, FF is not accessing web sites. It just keeps spinning and nothing is happening (but this message board page is working for some reason).

What the heck happened?

I tried to add a new credit card to my subscription account on the www.everydropwater.com website. My attempts failed twice for no apparent reason. I called their customer support at 1-800-442-9991 and described my problem. They asked me which browser I was using. I told them "Firefox". They said that's the problem, their credit card update function simply does not work under Firefox!

I was appalled that they know their site doesn't work under a popular browser, yet they don't seem to care or be interested in fixing their site!

Can you folks fix this problem? (I felt like a traitor when I downloaded and used Chrome to get around it.)

I'm using 64-bit Firefox 112.0.1 under Windows 10 version 22H2 on a Dell laptop.

Thanks!!

Google's websites works badly with Hardware Acceleration On (Google, Youtube, Gmail, Google Maps, ...)

Hi everyone, I am currently using Firefox "112.0.1 (64-bit)" on Windows 10 "10.0.19045 Build 19045]"

I have problems using almost all Google websites: most of the times they do not load at first attempt, and when they do they do not works properly. As example: Youtube does not load (or the cached version says that there is no internet connection), then after a few attempts it loads but all thumbnails on the home are gray.

On another browser (Edge) all websites works normally.

Using private window has the same problem, I have no extension and no plugin other than OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc. and Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc.. I tried emptying cache and also reinstalling Firefox.

The only fix I found on the web is to disable hardware acceleration from settings. If I disable it and restart the browser, then all websites works normally. Actually I can't see this as fix but as a workaround, since I am using a notebook and I'd like to use my GPU for video decoding and save energy.

Maybe I am missing something? Is there something I can do? Thanks.

After upgrading to the latest version (112.0.1) on MacOS 10.15.7, the bookmarks toolbar disappears when I enter fullscreen mode ('Always Show' is selected under Bookmarks Toolbar in the View menu). When I exit fullscreen mode, the toolbar reappears but a large grey bar then appears at the top of the window (see screenshot). I've read answers in the knowledge base that suggest that the toolbar always disappears in fullscreen mode, but I am 100% sure that this behaviour did not exist before the recent upgrade (perhaps this behaviour has been around for a while in Windows?). Either way the grey bar is clearly a bug and feels related to the toolbar behaviour. Has anyone else experienced this?
