I use this addon

Select After Closing Current

But apparently I'm not using it correctly.

When I close a tab, it defaults to the tab on the right, which, to me, IMO, is counter intuitive.

And just as bad, when I restart the browser, it opens to the tab on the right much of the time, instead of the current active tab.

Is there something I can do can do about this?

About three days ago, the dropdown lists for various websites I use stopped populating unless I use the backspace. So, for instance, if I want to find "John", nothing happens if I just start to type it in. But if I type in "Jo" and then backspace, John pops up. (Perhaps important: Even though I have now deleted the "o", only John pops up, not names beginning with J but followed by a different letter.) Curiously, it seems like the first time each day that I go onto any given website, the dropdown does populate properly, but just that once. I checked Edge and Chrome, and the dropdowns work fine there, so it's definitely a Firefox problem. Any ideas about what is going on and how I can fix it? Thanks.

If I try to use Messenger, I get an error message that I am not connected to the internet. This is just within the last 24 hours, but some are saying it's been doing that since the last update. Is there a setting that needs to be changed?

Hello! Since I updated Firefox to 118.0.1 (latest version when writing this) the Teams Large Gallery mode in Firefox is displaying black and eventually all the participants appear but the performance is 1 frame per minute. All the cameras are frozen and occasionally the display refreshes for one single frame.

Audio is working fine and default Gallery mode (only 4 camera displayed) still works normally.

Thank you!

I run a website that is custom built and we are seeing a potential issue in which the headers and header links are showing in the reader view of every page above the content for the page. But I'm also not sure if this is necessarily bad or might be affecting SEO.

Does anyone know whether this is detrimental to SEO, and if so, are there any suggestions on what might be causing this to happen in the code?

Recently random boxes (black, grey or white) started appearing when highlighting text. The problem started occurring after the most recent Windows 11 update (2023-09 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5030310)).

upgraded to v118 9'30 Bookmarks lost and not able to access old profile, or restore using "Manage Bookmarks"

See attached: Only see one real profile (current, new) in App Support > Firefox > Profiles. The second profile that exists has virtually nothing in it compared to the new one created upon upgrade. Only three tiny files key4,cert9,pkcs11. Nothing else to restore from.

Bookmark manager >> restore >> despite seeing 10 dates to chose form , error messages every time, "unable to process the backup file." Now what?

I do see a "places.sqlite" file which seems to show "last modified" date of prior to my unfortunate update. But when I try to have Firefox open it, nothing happens. Just new browser windows every time.

THX in advance.

I have always used Firefox, but also have Chrome and Edge on my 17" PC. For the past week or so, my scroll bar (on right side of screen) has "disappeared". It is actually still there, but so skinny that it cannot be seen or used. I Googled solutions to this, and found an article that had 8 possible solutions. I went through all 8, went into the various control options. Still, the same problem. Downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed. Still the same problem. So- I decided to see if it was an issue with my pc. I tried the Chrome browser. It works fine. I tried the Edge browser. It works fine. I know now that the problem is with the Firefox browser. Something "went wrong" in the latest version. To add to this -- I also have to note that if I shut down and restart the pc, I can get the Firefox scroll bar to return (sometimes). BUT (this is really weird): if the scroll bar appears normal, the bar at the top of the page (not sure what that is called) does not work correctly/ is missing features. This is what happens: there is no X to exit a page, there is no "V " sign to make a page small, etc. All 4 symbols that should be in the top right side of the top bar are missing. Also, there are no tabs available. It won't allow you to have more than one tab! So, if you are in your gmail (for example), you must close out the gmail in order to do a google search or do anything else! Something is terribly wrong with the latest Firefox update.

I am using Arlo security cameras which store the video captures as MP4 files. The Arlo app has video playback feature that works in Chrome or Edge but does not work in FireFox. From what I have been abe to glean from searches, Arlo uses HEVC Codec that FireFox either isn't compatible with or is lacking the codec. Any suggestions?

When downloading any file in Firefox (the picture is an example), the "Firefox" option will be added in the right-click open-with in Windows Explorer. This does not happen in other browsers. And this item is added without permission, it is a bad behavior.

在Firefox中下载任意文件（图中为一个例子），在Windows 资源管理器右键打开方式中都会被添加“Firefox”选项，这不会发生在其他浏览器上，而且一个浏览器未经允许添加一个打开方式是不好的行为。

The second time I seen this before.... Mozilla has changed into my aol account... And everything in my mozilla firefox account is gone ... The way I had it set up passwords everything is different .... And then it came back for a few hours and then changed back again.... And when it came back I shot a photo of what my Mozilla Firefox looks like at the top and the aol on the bottom ... NOW Mozilla looks identical to the bottom ....

What is going on please .....

I've started using pocket to save articles I want to read later on my kobo libra2.

My favorites often come from here: https://www-nybooks-com.www

When I hit the pocket button, it indicates that I have saved successfully. But, when I go to pocket, the tile created for the articles only has the title, image, maybe author bio, but no article.

Thoughts?

When copying text from a website in one Firefox window, and pasting in a separate Fire Fox window, formatting issues occur

• Running on Windows 10
• Firefox, windows/tabs not in container
• Pasting text from Coursera to Notion.so fails to start text on current line and properly format.
• Works on Microsoft Edge with no issue, so problem is isolated to Firefox

Attaching images for clarification and comparison. (sorry for quality, quick MS.paint job)

• after further testing, it appears that copying from Coursera in Firefox to Microsoft Edge also has the same formatting issue, so it seems to be a compatibility situation between Firefox copying from Coursera specifically, and not an issue with pasting to Notion.so

• appreciate the fact that there are multiple third party factors at play, but the issue is killing my productivity so any help is appreciated!

Is it possible to spell check the entire web page using both Hunspell built-in dictionaries and user-defined dictionaries *.dic, already prepared text in Firefox. As it is done in text editors like Libre Office (also uses Hunspell) but for web site, checking the text from top to bottom with errors in a separate window, so spell check is not only in the text input/search field.

How does the translator determine when it is activated? Does the translator give the ability to translate selected text, or just the visited page?

I was trying to find a site to test it. I found this.

Spanish Proficiency Test

Maybe it's not an ideal example, but it neither translates the page, or gives the option to translate selected text.

So the whole issue started when I couldn't share a video on my community tab because it kept giving me the error message "enable google.com for cookies". I click accept a few times it didn't work. Then I went to cookies- extensions and enabled both youtube and google in it, didn't work. I deleted my cookies and data and tried again. I had to sign up to all my google accounts. Still it didn't fix the issue I kept getting the same error. Then I went to the enhanced cookies settings went to customs and chose the option "cookies from unvisited sites" This fixed the community tab issue. I shared my video and then went back to settings and set the standard enhanced tracking protection. I got signed off my gmail and google accounts I signed up again and closed the browser.

When I came back my google and gmails are signed out again but my accounts still signed in my youtube for some reason. I keep getting signed off on google but not youtube. I don't have the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" option enabled. IT IS DISABLED.

HOW DO IT FIX IT? I don't want to keep signing in every time also I don't wish to reinstall firefox. PLEASE HELP
