Good morning! My job requires working almost exclusively with Google Drive apps. This morning—soon after the update to Firefox 160, I assume—all my google Docs and Google Sheets are, well, pretty much gone.

I am using Firefox 160, as mentioned, on an iMac running MAC OS 15.7.9

Here are the issues (see attached screenshots for reference):

  • Google Docs are completely white-ed out...except for images. I can type, and clearly the text I type is there (I can copy the page and paste it into Pages on my desktop and it looks normal). But text is invisible. Selecting text give no visibility. Changing the color of the text has no effect.
  • Google Sheets, on the other hand, are a mix of black and white blocks. Some cells are completely black, others are completely white. I can see the original formatting and text if I put my cursor in a cell, but once I hit return or otherwise remove it, the cell returns to either white or black. (Note—I have been seeing weird white-out sections of cells recently, where some text in random cells is partially obscured, but nothing this extensive)

I have restarted my computer, and reloaded Firefox twice. I really have no idea what else to do, and my work has ground to a halt. Any help will be MUCH appreciated!

Ebay Search function lately always returns Ebay Error message

I am running Win7 and only using Firefox 115.45.0 which I recently upgraded to from 115.44. For the last few weeks, I get an Ebay Error message when trying to search its site. At first, I could enter a search term, let it sit awhile and then click "search". If I got the error message [a kid w/ orange jacket over his head and a small message saying "something went wrong at our end" plus a long number (not always the same)], often highlighting the URL, holding the Enter button down a while, then releasing it would allow the search to be fulfilled. That no longer works. Over a week ago I contacted a Customer Service agent who said she would contact their Technical people, but the situation seems now worse, and I haven't been contacted. I have had no trouble with my account pages & features. Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone have suggestions about mine? Yes, I have cleared cookies and cache ( including when I updated Firefox ESR today). Can't think of anything else new on my system. FWIW, I can't/won't upgrade this old OS for various reasons. I also can't try other browsers. I don't visit lots of places, (no "social" media) and no others where I do any searching as on Ebay; it is the only site with problems.

Error logging into Yahoo from Firefox

Greetings, After a recent Firefox update, I can no longer login to my Yahoo account in a normal window. I can sign in to Yahoo from a private Firefox window, using Chrome in both regular and private windows, as well as Safari regular and private windows. I have cleared cache and cookies for all Yahoo websites, restarted Firefox and my Mac, no joy. I have checked that I have the most up to date version of Firefox. Since I can login from a private Firefox window, and all other browsers' windows, there is clearly something on Firefox's end causing this breakdown when using Firefox's standard browsing. When trying to login, I can get to Yahoo's sign-in page, several ways (logged out and tried logging in), I type in my username, click Next and it spins for 15 seconds then immediately shows an error message in a new window. The error message is shown below:

An error occurred while processing your request.

Reference #97.8e09c617.1794211833.68184b03

https://errors.edgesuite.net/97.8e09c617.1794211833.68184b03

I have also tried logging into different Yahoo, AT&T and Google accounts, they all work fine except for my legacy sbcglobal account username, which is what I need to use for my Fantasy Football - this same username works on other browsers so it is not an AT&T/Yahoo issue.

I am using Chrome now as I cannot manage Fantasy Football in a private window.

Please advise a fix for this. Thanks Tracy

Sometimes when I select a check box, it does not show on my screen, even though it seems to have been accepted. This is very frustrating to me because I am not sure the box was selected. This seems to be happening when I am responding to a survey, or making a selection on an order or payment. I have to make payments to the IRS, and I get really nervous if I am not sure the box is selected. Thank you.

Why did Firefox stop showing any Mouser Electronics Components pages, but shows them in private mode

In the first week of November, Firefox stopped showing any pages for Mouser Electronics Components - www.mouser.com. No issues at all until then.

No changes at my end at all; no software updates/installs, no change in Operating SYstem, no hardware changes at all, no change in Intenet connection. Just no connection to Mouser.

I get the message in the image about "Connection was Reset", and "Firefox can't connect to the server". I attached a screenshot of the error page I get.

I discovered that, weirdly enough, Firefox connects fine to www.mouser.com in "private mode".

I did all the cookie/cache clearing routines, updated Firefox to make sure I was current but nothing worked. Firefox still won't display the pages.

Every other website I go to, works normally. www.mouser.com is the ONLY one with this odd issue.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated. Thanks.
