Hello,

I've had this problem with viewing expanded jpg's that up until now, I've been trying to get along with. On the website, milesplit.com, there's an option at the bottom of every picture, it gives the option saying to click here to view a larger version. After I click it, I get a small box saying "You have chosen to open..." and then a big string of letters and numbers for the file name. It continues "which is: application/octet-stream file (156 KB) from: d193frjqb908ar.cloudfront.net" And then asks what Firefox should do with it, either open or save it. From there, I always select Open with and click on Browse. The next screen is long and narrow and at the top it says to Choose Helper App. Then, it gives the application/octet-stream name, which happens to be the same no matter what picture you're looking at, and then it says Send this item to and gives (in my case) 6 apps to readily click on, with Firefox being at the top. As I always want Firefox to open it, I just click OK and then click OK again in the smaller box. And finally, the larger version of the picture is displayed in another tab. Now, I've been using this site on and off for at least 15 years and before a few years ago, I had no problems. So, is this a fixable problem, or do I have to keep on doing what I have been doing?

Since the latest update, when I click on a link to an image containing a JPG (JPEG) file, now Firefox opens a new tab but it's empty, and it automatically downloads the JPG file, saving it in Downloads. To see the image, I have to go to Downloads and choose to open the file. I hate this. How does software get dumber like this? Someone messed up. It's not just some sites, it's all the time, so Firefox changed.

Is there a quick fix for this in Settings? I've been looking to no avail.

Emojis do not show on Firefox 146 on macOS. I downgraded to 145.0.2 and they do show, so it seems related to Firefox 146.

I have macOS 26.2 running in both test cases.

Emoji in question: 👨🏻💻

Since updating to the new Firefox 150.0 (aarch64) - two of our client's websites are having issues with too big/distorted logos (png files).

Sites are A-OK in Sarfari and Chrome.

Remade the images and re-uploaded (thinking the files were corrupt). Did not fix the situation. Cleared every cache available (object, builder, browser, hosting).

Could there be an issues with the browser?

As of 4/20/ 2026 When attempting to save pictures or saved pictures, Fire Fox is only offering Full view , and showing full view as the only option regardless of the formats, and especially the center option which I use with my desktop black background. This is one of my favorite features of Firefox and looks like a glitch. I would suspect Windows , except that Firefox shows the formats of center, stretch, tile, and each one shows only the full view in the display box. does anyone else have this problem? I am stressed...

When opening websites the images are not opening, only blank boxes appear. I don't have any settings for security causing problems because I turned them off previously. simply cannot find what is driving this. Thanks, Don

As shown in the picture, you need to use a two-dimensional code to log in and share the website, the two-dimensional code can not be displayed normally!

Ok, for some stupid reason, sometime in the past month or two, I think one of your updates completely incapacitated my ability to paste images into sites that allow me to paste images, such as chat gpt or search engines. This is terribly inconvenient and annoying. Please either fix it or tell me what setting in your mess of settings fixes it

For some unknown reason, it seems since March 28th or so, I haven't been able to paste clipboard images anymore into the browser, for example when on a site that allows pasting images in a chat. This is inconvenient and now requires me to either dig up the actual screenshot images (a nearly hidden folder in windows) or paste it in a separate app, save it, and then upload it as an image. Please fix this for user productivity reasons.

Only the first picture is displayed on web pages such as: https://www.military.com/daily-news/investigations-and-features/2026/02/13/army-major-killed-soviet-soldier-was-last-american-die-cold-war.html

Do I have a setting wrong?

I am encountering an issue where, while searching for images on google, the images appear extremely low resolution. When I attempt to open the image in another tab, it remains extremely low resolution and low quality. The issue is not with the images themselves, as I am able to view them on my phone with higher resolution, it is just my desktop that experiences this issue. Please fix it.
