I am running Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy on my desktop. Problem does not appear in Windows 10.

I can click the search box and the list of search engines shows. I can change the default search engine in settings. Mouse over highlights the selections.

Clicking on one of the choices does nothing.

I think there have been 2 updates since the problem first appeared.

PS: There also appears to be an issue with js. Some functions on websites do not work although most of the scripts do work. In particular comments on comicskingdom.com do not work and the same with comments on seattletimes.com which apparently uses the same script. Both websites work on Windows 10.

When I copy something to my clipboard I can paste it into Firefox. Into web pages and also into the URL bar.

But when I copy something in Firefox, it does not go to the clipboard. The clipboard still hast the content which was already there.

Also strange: When I cut text in a textarea, input element or the URL bar, the text is removed. But it is not sent to the clipboard. When I cut and paste, the text I get is what was previously in the clipboard.

What could be the cause? How can I debug this problem?

When I try to edit & crop in Google Photos, I get the image artifacts as you can see in the image with lines and the image doesn't correct itself so it's impossible to edit well. If I save the image after all the lines are added, then reload it will show but then I have to start the crop over again to get both sides.

This works fine in Google Chrome, so there is some issue with the Firefox browser on my laptop. graphics: Intel Iris Xe Graphics 1920x1080 x 8bit 60.05 Hz refresh rate

What could be causing an issue on Firefox but not Chrome?

I've been trying to watch live sports events on SECN+ through my Hulu subscription, but I'm encountering an error message stating, "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported." I discovered that Firefox is blocking the stream, while it works perfectly on Chrome. With the college football season and other sports events approaching, I’m concerned that if this issue persists, I may have to stop using Firefox, which I've relied on for over two decades. Please help me fix this issue at your earliest convenience. Thanks.

Hi there, I'll have several tabs open and when opening a new tab/window, suddenly nothing happens when I type something. It's not specific pages, it's anything. I found somewhere that I could Clear my latest History, which helped momentarily, but the problem came back. Why is this?

I have tried to download the latest update (v129.0.2). The download stops at about 98kb. This happened on the last update (v129.0.1) as well and it took me countless attempts to get it to work.

I know there are work-arounds but why should I have to **** around with my machine just to get an update?

Firefox has been an excellent browser but something has happened. I tried to access the help and, after several minutes of a blank page, I got the attached. Other legitimate pages are not loading. Sorely tempted to revert to Safari but i have donated this year and still prefer Firefox.

All of a sudden when I open Firefox a dialogue box from Software Update appears and asks for permission to make changes to my computer-- never happened before. My preferences are set to automatically update and my app list says I have the latest version of Firefox (129.0.1). I've checked Firefox properties and there is nothing selected under compatibility mode (I read on the forum this could cause the pop up). I can’t figure out what changes Firefox’s Software Update wants to make if I already have the latest version (so I always say no). The Firefox update to 129.0.1 was 8/14 but this dialogue box only appeared a few days ago. Is Firefox just not working because it’s not getting the automatic update message sent to maintenance? Do I need to uninstall and reinstall the maintenance program? And if so, how do I do that? (Windows 10)

Well until a week ago I had no problems with Mozilla and apparently it got to a point where I deleted Mozilla and went to the Mozilla site downloaded the 64 version and couple of things have changed not sure why but they have and I'm not sure what to do ... The main thing is moving files into sites like We Transfer and Mega ... It just bounces off ... I took these sharing sites to like Edge and Opera not a problem.... Mozilla won't work.
