For the past several days I have not been able to access articles or sign in at the New York Times using Firefox. I am not sure which if any settings I may need to change. Is there someone in Seattle I can reach?

I have a odd issue where, whenever i click one of the buttons on my mouse, Firefox either goes a page forwards or backwards depending on which mouse button i click. When it goes a page forward, but it's not available, it instead goes back to the Firefox homescreen. I've had to rewrite this several times because whenever i click on a new section to type, it goes back a page.

This issue happens at random. Sometimes i will click on a empty spot on any site and only on the 10th click will it go a page back, but other times it happens instantly.

I use a programme JOSM / TM4 from HOTOSM that creates digital maps.

TM 4 is a programme in which area is divided into pieces (tasks) where a task can be selected by participants (mappers). This task is assigned to JOSM. Within this programme, a ‘changeset’ can be called for processing in JOSM.

Message from JOSM ‘remote control has been asked to import data from the following URSL ( This is opened within JOSM https://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/changeset/158340818/download (the number at the end can change) Normal situation is that this happens 1 time. Now the situation is, when in the browser the changeset is still open this is spontaneously sent to JOSM. And that several times, each time a page I visited earlier. Very annoying. The JOSM helpdesk gives this message. Quote:

Since a week or so I see this behaviour. I use Firefox internet explorer and have often a OSMcha and changesets open. The Data layers which opens are always the same as the changesets I have opened. No idea if there is an interference with that. Thanks for looking into this comment:2 by stoecker, 4 days ago

Sounds like a "background load" to me. The Web browser tries loading the URL in background and each time you get a new layer. Closing the TABS in the browser may help or if possible disabling background fetches for the localhost URLs? comment:3 by taylor.smock, 4 days ago Owner: changed from team to Frans.schutz@… Status: new → needinfo

I agree with stoecker.

As a first step, I would turn off/disable Remote Control. If this fixes the issue, then you have a poorly behaving website that is continually calling JOSM remote control.

See wiki:Help/Preferences/RemoteControl. follow-up: 5 comment:4 by anonymous, 3 days ago

Hello I disabled the remote control, but than I have no access to JOSM when I want to open a task in TM4

Till last week, Firefox did not respond as what I now see.

I try to close open OSMcha and changesets to see if this solve the issue Bestregards in reply to: 4 comment:5 by taylor.smock, 3 days ago

Replying to anonymous:

   I disabled the remote control, but than I have no access to JOSM when I want to open a task in TM4

That was expected. The question is, did disabling remote control fix the issue. If so, then something is calling JOSM remote control in a loop, and it is not a bug in JOSM.

   I try to close open OSMcha and changesets to see if this solve the issue

Once you figure out what website is the problem, I would highly recommend filing a ticket with them. Absent that, put the website (preferably with the full URL -- most browsers let reopen the last closed tab) in this ticket and I'll look into the sites bug report procedure.

I discovered this issue while trying to chat on Twitch. On my m1 macos, I try to insert emoji into the twitch chat via <control+command+space> shortcut and opening up the emoji picker. When I click on a emote to insert, nothing is inserted. Then, when I try to do the same into the developer's console via <command+option+i> , again nothing is inserted. This does not appear to be the case on Chrome.

Steps to reproduce: 1) be on macOS 2) open emoji picker via <control+command+space> 3) try to insert emoji into twitch chat OR developer's console

nothing is inserted

Many medical conditions limit manual dexterity. I’ve had essential tremor since childhood; it’s harmless, but it does complicate the business of using a smart phone. Some applications (e.g., Proton Mail) have settings for the user to choose what happens upon swiping left or right; I set them to “do nothing” or to the most harmless of the actions listed. I don’t see such a setting in the Android version of Firefox.

It would be useful, because I usually keep many tabs open, which means that when I look at the grid of tabs, I need to scroll up and down to see them all. However, moving my finger straight up or down is difficult: any trembling while I move up or down seems to be interpreted as swiping sideways, and then a tab closes. I can find and re-open tabs using the “Recently closed tabs” menu, but I’d rather tabs not close so easily because I don’t always notice when I lose them.

There’s a somewhat similar, archived comment at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1419070, but the setting referred to in one of the proposed solutions is about swiping on the address bar (I turned that off long ago), not in the grid of tabs. And I don’t see a way to disable left- and right-swiping for all applications at once in the Settings app of Android 12, with which I’ll be stuck for a while.

Win11, FF 131.0.3

Twice with this FF version I have had a tab fail then a black screen that does not permit a swap to another app or a ctl-alt-delete. I need to hit the power button to hot reboot the PC.

I can't screen shot, which would be useless anyway.

I dunno what is causing this or what is being affected.

I have recently run into an issue with web page not loading correctly. over the last couple of weeks, after I sign on to my bank's web site, I get a screen with non-functioning buttons(see attached screenshot). I contacted the bank, and their instructions were to clear cookies and cache, close Firefox and re-open the browser, and this should clear up the problem; or, update the browser. my Firefox is the latest version 131.0.3. the issue still existed after performing these steps. I tried using MS Edge and all screens loaded correctly. Firefox is my browser of choice, and I have not had this issue previously. please respond with feedback, so I know how to move forward. thank you.

Hi, Having set up the HTTPS mode I found that initially my bank account gave the "Secure Connection Failed" error. I then went through the “Adding exceptions for HTTP websites" procedure which then allowed me to access the bank account. Since I had a second account, I also added this to the exceptions. To my surprise this did not work, and the first bank account did not either. I also disabled the “Don’t enable HTTPS-Only Mode" option available during the initial setup. This made no difference to the problem. I would appreciate any help in resolving this Problem. Ian Duncan.
