For the past 2 months I've found it very difficult to sign into my Hotmail account using Firefox. Microsoft keep telling me to use a VPN or another device. I like answering emails on my computer because of its large screen. I've tried signing in about 2000 times now. Firefox told me they can't help me because I'm not a Mozilla subscriber even though they own Firefox. Microsoft told me it's Mozilla's problem. Can anyone help me please. John in the Philippines.

We have a web page we've created that is linked to by multiple other websites. For two of the sites where this is linked, Firefox (only) gives a "The Page Isn't Redirecting Properly" error. Using the exact same URL to link from other sites works fine in all browsers. Once you get the error, if you click in the URL and hit enter, the page will load fine. Any ideas? When searching that error, all the ideas I find tend to focus on the individual user's system, but this is happening for all users.

The app sizes two adjacent images to the same height. Maybe there's a better approach?

This works, in that I see the original image displayed at the wrong size:

   //img.src = imgsrc.src;

This sizes the image but without the data (black square for toDataURL w/ image/jpeg) in FF, but not Chrome and Safari:

   var canvas = document.createElement( 'canvas' );
   canvas.width = width;
   canvas.height = avail_height;
   var context = canvas.getContext( '2d' );
   // Tried/failed: Fill white background for JPEG export
   //context.fillStyle = '#fff';
   //context.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
   context.drawImage( imgsrc, 0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
   context.lineWidth = 150; // ??
   img.src = canvas.toDataURL('image/jpeg', 0.92);
   img.onmousedown = disableDragging; // for FF
   img.style.opacity = "1.0"

The page is the view.html one gets to via Enter on phobrain.com.

I don't know if this ever worked in FF, since I've been on Chrome a while. I tried canvas.toBlob() in FF without a solution.

The behavior is the same whether the served image is jpg or webp. A Servlet delivers the image data, here in webp:

          response.setHeader("Content-Type", "image/webp");

On page, I use a canvas thus => see '// FIREFOX'

     var canvas = document.createElement( 'canvas' );
     canvas.width = width;
     canvas.height = avail_height;
     var context = canvas.getContext( '2d' );
     context.drawImage( imgsrc, 0, 0, width, avail_height);

The errors I get are kind of all over the place though. I've completely deleted and reinstalled Firefox, and removed all extensions too.

It will loop to the login screen over and over, or I get the message 'An error has happened, try again later'...

I used the browser console and didn't get anything that seemed usable. I use Strava nearly every day so I'm having to use Safari. And this issue is on all of the mac and Windows systems I use. 'Troubleshooting Mode' didn't work either.

When pasting an image from the clipboard in Outlook Web Access in Edge there's right mouse button option to "Paste as Image". This places the image inline. In Firefox there's no option like this.

Safe mode (troubleshooting mode) doesn't fix this. Ctrl + V or Shift + Ctrl + V doesn't fix it. Shift RMB to get Firefox menu does show Paste and Paste without formatting but it doesn't paste any inline image.

I've attached a screenshot of Edge and Firefox with the Outlook context menu and Firefox context menu.

Hello,

I'm facing an issue where my microphone does not work in Google Meet when using Firefox, even though I’ve granted all necessary permissions. This problem is specific to Firefox, as the microphone works perfectly fine in Google Chrome.

I prefer using Firefox because of its convenient screenshot features, but this microphone issue has caused major inconvenience during important meetings.

Kindly help me resolve this issue.

Thank you.

Problem logging onto Zoho Mail with Firefox.

I have been using both Firefox and Zoho Mail for many years. Now, for some reason, Firefox seems to have a problem completing the Zoho Mail login from the same bookmark I have been using for years, or from a direct URL. The same Firefox installation cannot access Google Maps from a bookmark or directly using a complete URL, but does access some other applications as always.

Now the curious (to me, anyway) part. If I open a new private Firefox window, I can log into both Zoho Mail and Google Maps as I used to from the Firefox private window using bookmarks.

This helps me pinpoint Firefox as the problem – one part working, the other not.

My Firefox is up to date [Version 140.0.4 (64 bit)], and I have scanned all 1,350,000-plus files on my system for viruses and potential startup issues.

Should I reinstall Firefox? If so, how do I do that while keeping my bookmarks and password files?

If I use another browser (i.e., “Google Chrome), I can access both Zoho Mail and Google Maps with no difficulty. That is not a solution for me.

Firefox has been my foundation browser for decades. I don’t want to have to use anything else.

I am using the Raindrop (raindrop.io) bookmark manager. It has been working fine on Firefox for years. However, with my recent update to Firefox 140, it is broken. Specifically, I can no longer use the highlighting function. It works fine on Chrome, but not on Firefox. I've seen several similar reports on Reddit's Firefox forum (r/firefox).

What to do? I don't want to have to switch to Chrome. Suggestions appreciated.

I have had a google account and a YouTube Channel ([email_1]@gmail.com) for decades. I recently added a new google email ([email_2]@gmail.com) and accustomed my old YouTube channel for [email_1]@gmail.com with the new email, [email_2]@gmail.com. On other browsers when I comment, the old YouTube account with the new email shows up as the commentor. Today, on my new Firefox browser.I discovered that the new email had created another YouTube channel which showed up as my ID for a comment on another YouTube channel. I deleted the new YouTube channel but, when I comment with the brand new Firefox browser, the old YouTube channel I deleted shows up. How can I correct that?

Hello,

Not sure if posted under the right section.

Recently started having an issue trying to sign in to Microsoft Outlook (formally Hotmail) Web. I don't recall any changes i made or updates.

When i try to sign in, it opens a new tab and takes me back to the sign in page. This just continues.

Tried using MS Edge and don't have the issue.

So far tried Safe Mode which disabled add-ons, which are currently Add Block plus, and New Tab Override and the issue remains. Not sure if i tried the refresh option but i think it removes the extensions which is not the end of the world.

Added a few images, one shows duplicate tabs, which will continue

Firefox version 140.0.4 (64-bit)

Any ideas whats going
