Using the Firefox browser, I tried to copy an image and wasn't able to do so. Then I copied an image using another browser and wasn't able to paste it into a Facebook post on Firefox. Please tell me how to fix this. I can't copy/paste text either. Could the problem be my Mozilla VPN?

Hello there.

Since last update i'm unable to browse websites like youtube, social media and all other websites with video content. Video often fails to load,the wholewebsite is not loading, freezes while played or while exiting full screen mode. All of these freezes the browser - the site cannot be refreshed, links does not work. The only way is to close the tab with the freezed page or kill the Firefox process in windows Task Manager. Refreshing, re-installing, deleting or using different profile don't work. Same with add-ons. Seems like the issue lies within the browser and it started to appear since last update.

Credit card authorisation failing with Autofill

All my attempts to pay online with 2 out of my 3 cards have failed in the last 2 weeks. The Mastercard says it has connected to my bank and I'll get an SMS - but the SMS never arrives, and when I phoned my bank, they said they had no authorisation attempts reach them at all! The Visa card simply says it failed at the first step, without saying why or serving up the usual security dialogue. (The other Visa card just works).

I suspect the Autofill may be the problem here. I've recently had other scenarios where FF filled in a field for me, but the Javascript behind the website refused to accept it, eg saying it wasn't a valid phone no when it clearly was. The only way to get round this seems to be to type in the complete value yourself, which rather defeats the object. It could be something else, but it's clearly dependent on which software's running behind the card, as the third card succeeds.

All the tabs, in both my profiles are constantly crashing. I cannot keep at a task for more than a few minutes without needing to restart the tab. Is this a setting problem? I've cleared the cache, and reset Firefox, to no avail. Thank you for any relevant advice and/or assistance.

This past Friday morning, May 29, I tried to access www.healingwell.com which I have always been able to do. But this time Firefox gave me a red screen with message: "Firefox blocked this page because it might try to trick you into installing programs that harm your browsing experience, for example, by changing your homepage or showing extra ads on sites you visit." And same message again over the weekend. But yesterday, Monday June 1, I was able to access that website, and all seemed normal. Why did Firefox give me that message on Friday, but not yesterday or today?

Hello! Is it possible to recover older open tabs from a broken device that had sync activated? For a while they appeared in the hamburger menu in the top right, but now they suddenly disappeared, and under the "connected devices" I cannot click the device or anything. It went broken 2-3 months ago. Best wishes!

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble accessing my local network devices (a 3D printer and Raspberry Pi) using short hostnames like "http://impressora3d" or "http://impressora3d/". Firefox keeps blocking the connection with the "Looks like there’s a problem with this site" error page.

I've captured a network log using 'about:networking' and I can see that: 1. DNS resolution works perfectly and points to my local IP:

  "CompleteLookup: impressora3d has 192.168.1.10"

2. Firefox is upgrading the request to HTTPS (port 443) automatically:

  "nsSocketTransport::ResolveHost [...] impressora3d:443" -> "pushing io layer [0:ssl]"

3. The device rejects it because it only listens on HTTP (port 80):

  "Bad Socket 804b000d" (NS_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

What I have already tried: - Disabled "HTTPS-Only Mode" entirely in settings. - Checked "Secure DNS" (DoH) settings (set to Increased Protection and added exceptions). - Cleared history and used "Forget about this site" on the hostname. - Typed "http://" explicitly.

Firefox still refuses to connect via plain HTTP (port 80). Is there any hidden 'about:config' preference or HSTS cache forcing this behavior for local unformatted domains?

Thank you!
