Firefox upgraded to 97 overnight and now using a pen in the browser just drags the page around. It was working normally yesterday, and now it doesn't. I'm trying to write using a pen on D2L's Brightspace, and now the pen just drags the page about. Doesn't do that with the mouse, but one can't write with a mouse. Microsoft Ink setting is set to use let me use a pen as a mouse, just as it was yesterday, but now Firefox is absolutely useless in this regard.

I can't get my work done.

Why, with not very many active open windows, and just after opening, is FF using 175% of my CPU, not counting all the separate listings in my Activity Monitor. Plus it's using nearly all 16 GBs of my RAM. With every new update, I pray it will mean the browser will just work, and not use up all my computer's resources, but it just never does. Pretty soon, more & more of us will just give up on this browser, which used to work better, years ago, and has only gone downhill since.

I've tried going in safe mode, turning of my Facebook container. Deleting cache. Signing out of Facebook. Also adjusting the backspace key in my Config. Having no problems on my Android phone or when using Opera. It's on on Firefox and on Facebook.

FACEBOOK screen suddenly moves to the bottom of the screen when I am typing a comment. Whenever I hit SHIFT+alpha_letter at the beginning of a line OR simply hit the backspace key, the screen suddenly shifts to the very bottom of the page again even if I have tried to scroll the page back up to the middle of the screen manually. This shifts the entry area where I'm typing down and sometimes off of the visible screen entirely. Just hitting the backspace to correct a typo causes the screen to scroll on its own. I have to scroll back down to the entry box and if I make another typo, it happens again. 

Please help. Been going on for over two weeks. I was hoping the new Firefox update yesterday would help. Nope. Still happening.

Today when I started Firefox browser all of my pinned pages on the home page are missing. There are no icons and clicking where a link should be doesn't do anything. Also, if I try to edit and add a new page it doesn't save.

I looked in about:config and found browser.newtabpage.pinned which still has all of my links.

Last night I ran chkdsk on Windows 10, so is it possible something critical was "fixed" or deleted?

I'm using Windows 10 Pro and Firefox 97.0.1 I do not want the Firefox icon on my desktop (I already have it pinned to my taskbar). I delete the shortcut, but it reappears each time I log in. Removing it requires me to have a coworker with admin privileges come supply a password - it's not tenable for me to keep bugging her every day. I cannot find the setting to suppress the re-creation of the desktop icon; where is it located? I prefer Firefox, but if there's no solution to this I will have to uninstall it and switch to a different browser.

Hi there,

I cleared my cache after it told me it had stored a gazillion GB in data - but the big number was still there after clearing the cache. Needless to say my harddrive isn't even as big as the GB number shown, so there must be a gremlin in there somewhere? Thought you'd want to know. I'm using the latest Firefox on Mac OS 10.15.7

I'm using dark mode for Google and it worked fine until recently when suddenly the SERP appeared in black rather than gray. I have already tried changing the layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override setting to 2 but it didn't have any effect. I have included screenshots of Firefox and Chrome where you can clearly see the difference in color. The black background is very uncomfortable and I need to change it back to the gray color like in Chrome. How?

I get the message under Settings: "Your browser is being managed by your organization". Clicking on that message shows that the policy DisableAppUpdate is true. Methods for remeding this situation do not work. Please advise on how to change the policy to allow update please

In the last Firefox update, you changed the printing user interface AGAIN. The print.tab_modal.enabled=false config option no longer works, and I can't easily re-scale my page when I print. Is there a new option which restores the original behavior or is there some other remedy that will let me print using the Windows System dialogue?

i've firefox 97 in linux mint, and now is not showing the saved password in my sync account in any login form that i visit, i have the credential stored, and i've tried disabling the performance options in the general settings as i found that can be an issue, but still is not showing, i don't know maybe have something to do with graphics driver, but i don't know how to test it

thanks

I have two PDFs that I designed and uploaded to our website, but the headline in both displays with clipped characters in Firefox. Different fonts were used in both and the issue is the same. I even tried adding more tracking then re-uploading, the issue persists.

I checked in other browsers and the text displays as intended. The attached screenshots show the issue in Firefox, compared to how it should look (viewed in Chrome).

It's only this one line of text that is affected and I don't know why.

Cannot get out of the terrible firefox print dialog. Literally no one wants this print dialog, it is a waste of time, and does not support all the printer options. I do not want to have to click "print using the system dialog" every time. Please restore the print.tab_modal.enabled = false functionality immediately. Or better yet get rid of your stupid print dialog.

thanks

I have a folder of YouTube links that I've saved for periodic review. Usually all I used to do was click on a link which would then take me to the desired link, but now, with my most recent Firefox update, when I click on a link I get a totally different link. For example:

When I click on : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5h2Q1YUm-Vg

I get redirected to: https://www.youtube.com/supported_browsers?next_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D5h2Q1YUm-Vg

Or when I click on : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myy7ldfgTnQ I get redirected to: https://www.youtube.com/supported_browsers?next_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dmyy7ldfgTnQ

Please help resolve this irritating mystery! Thank you

Cannot login to my bank - Barclays on address:- https://bank.barclays.co.uk/olb/authlogin/loginAppContainer.do#/identification Works on Waterfox, Vivaldi. Brave and Edge

Good day Firefox When the Wordle puzzle was accessed via the powerlanguage.co.uk website, my Firefox browser gave me easy access via bookmark but, in recent days, the ownership and location of the puzzle has passed to the New York Times and my bookmark activation takes me to the NYT games/wordle page but the page is blank. I have now found that I can access the page and complete the puzzle using Microsoft Edge but I have no desire to use Edge. I have read a statement in the NYT that the puzzle will continue with free access so payment is not an obstacle. Is there likely a setting in Firefox which is preventing me access to the puzzle and, if so, are you able to suggest where I can access the setting. Thank you, John Price

I'm not sure this is a problem with Firefox but I have run out of other options to look at. At first I thought it might be because the page uses a frameset (I know it's obsolete) so I created a version that uses an iframe instead. That way the html that needs to be acted on is not in a frame. It still doesn't work. I don't know why it works in stackoverflow's sandbox and jsfiddle but not on my website. Any help is appreciated.

Frameset version iFrame version

If you need to see the tabstrip code (it's virtually identical to the iFrame version): Tabstrip for frameset version

The script is supposed to hilite the selected tab with a red background. The rollover works fine (yellow background and brown text) but the selected tab color never shows up.
