Using: Firefox v132.0.2 (64-bit) for Linux (Arch Linux)

Picture-in-Picture (built-in) not working correctly. Consider attached image e.g., the video is visible, but I can't really use the any of the other tabs visible here. What I noted: I can scroll the other tab/window using mouse wheel when the Picture-in-Picture is in focus, but as soon as I click on any of the other tabs/window, the video goes to background, and hence becomes "invisible".

Firefox won't load videos that other browsers will. Typically, when I load a page, there's a big blank spot where the embedded video should be -- where the video shows up on Chrome or Safari. I've tried clear the cashes and reloading Firefox, but the problem persists. For many reasons, I'd prefer to use Firefox, but if I can't fix this, I'll stop using it at all. Can anybody suggest ways to fix this?

Yesterday I uploaded a bunch of pdfs on my wordpress website and they display the title, image captions, byline and other miscellaneous text, but NOT BODY text, incorrectly on Windows Firefox and ONLY on Windows Firefox. Mac works fine, Windows Chrome, Edge work fine but Windows Firefox displays the affected text as individual boxes with letters in them. This may be broader than the font settings on one computer as I have replicated the issue on several PCs. Interesting though that when I download the embedded pdf, and it's displayed in the page, the fonts ARE CORRECT!!! You can see the issue here: https://davegibsonimages.com/air-force-vs-navy/ or you can look at the screenshot I took. I've contacted the developer of the embedder plugin and they are seeing a 404 error for the affected pages, which is NOT replicated elsewhere, but since it returns a 200, they're convinced that it's not a problem with their plugin. Godaddy is of course saying all is well on their end. I've cleared all the available caches, to no avail, and of course refreshed pages.

Links from the Autohotkey forum suddenly do not open properly. This may have started with my recent upgrade to FF 133.0.3.

Here is sample link:

https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=134961&e=1&view=unread#unread

If I open this link normally (which, for me, means in a new tab) I am sent to Captcha screen, and upon answering it, then appears only a text outline (not the CSS code) of the page. If I open IN NEW PRIVATE WINDOW, I get the captcha screen again and after answering it, the page opens correctly.

(I usually don't get the captcha quiz from Autohotkey forum also, but that may be their doing. I also can state the captcha screen is not because cookies have been erased. I keep most all cookies.) Firfefox.)

I can't upload videos to YouTube via Firefox. Uploading progress stays on 0%. Using the Edge browser videos upload normally. It has always worked with Firefox previously.

For almost a week now, I keep getting a message on a site I've been going to for more than 10 years (deviantart) when I use firefox on my computer, which I am not having these issues accessing using Safari on my phone.

403 ERROR The request could not be satisfied. Request blocked. We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a configuration error.

The request ID changes each time.

The steps I have taken so far:

• Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions (everything was fine)
• Reloaded page using Shift+ Left Click to bypass cache
• Reloaded page with Ctrl + F5
• Started Firefox in Troubleshoot mode to assure it wasn't my extensions (I only use ublock but better safe than sorry)
• I disabled extensions after reloading in usual mode

What steps are next after these basic troubleshooting? I was hoping to use that site to share creations with friends.

I HAVE USED THE YOUCARE SEARCH ENGINE FOR OVER A YEAR AND FOUND IT EXCELLENT, I'VE PROVIDED OVER 85 MEALS FOR ANIMALS IN SHELTERS, BUT YESTERDAY WHEN I WANTED TO DO A SEARCH, NOTHING CAME UP, IT JUST SAID 'NO RESULTS FOUND' I TRIED SOME COMMON SITES, NEXT, ARGOS, ALDI, AND IT JUST SAID THE SAME THING.

                                                                                              COULD YOU PLEASE HELP PUT THIS RIGHT,
                                                                                                                                                                    MANY THANKS, JANET.

I've been trying to locate the cause of this for the longest time and I can't. I have my Macbook hooked up to a Displaylink dock. Everything is running the most recent versions, the Mac, Firefox, etc. Randomly the windows will all show as they're not active and I'm not able to make any of them active. I can't click links, I can't exit out using the mouse, but hiting enter on the exit prompt will work. Have you seen this before? Do you know what is causing it or how to fix?

I have set E:\ as my default download location. However in some cases Firefox does not respect my choice and silently downloads stuff to C:\Users\Name\Downloads. I really hate this. One example, a pdf downloaded from here https://scribd.vpdfs.com/. Please fix it. Thx.

Hi

Reinstalled Win 10 pro on my i7 4th gen 16gb RAM 250 SSD copied firefox profile folder which brings back all my windows tabs bookmarks etc

I now get tabs crashing constantly

Before the reformat I used Norton 360 at mostley default settings for over 6 months with no problems,

tried turning things off in Norton

Norton 360 is reinstalled: browser extensions, password manager, norton homepage, norton safeweb, norton safesearch are all not installed Browser and browser data protection is on, VPN is off turned off auto protect and smartfirewall

use to use adblockplus and privacy badger firefox add ons with no problem these are now off

Ive refreshed startup and cleared startup cache

Crash ID: bp-8c10712c-d0a1-4794-a650-97fa20241120 Crash ID: bp-cfda1f88-afc4-4888-969e-01f080241120 Crash ID: bp-52c67cf0-5704-432a-bda9-017310241120 Crash ID: bp-41fe5c53-4786-4042-a25a-76f890241120 Crash ID: bp-9ac67edf-99fe-4422-ba95-3dea50241119

see included images of what looks corrupted addons and settings section in firefox settings

not sure what to do now

Firefox was crashing so I found the folder in C:Program Files and renamed it before a new install. I downloaded the new Installer and installed Firefox again thinking all would be saved, but now, my bookmarks are missing and the history from the last few weeks are gone and started with the date I re-installed it. I have an old AT&T email that is now Yahoo and been using it for years. I tried to log in and I get a different screen asking about an ID which I don't have. Firefox always launched showing this icon to start yahoo as well as Chase Ect...ect and all are gone.

Is there a way to point to the old folder, after changing it back to original name and get back to previous version?

I did find another Mozilla file under Users,ComputerName,AppData, Local. I don't know if it was created with the new install or there before and just updated because I renamed the first file I found and now it's using C:Users to start Firefox. Any help getting back to where I was is appreciated.

Thank you

Tony

Firefox history contains youtube videos I didn't watch (and that aren't in my google youtube history). I've realised they go back May, roughly when I got my new linux machine and installed Firefox. However, they also seem to have been watched outside the time any of my devices apart from my phone are on. They're mostly just junk videos about minecraft etc.

See attached pic - the ones this morning between 5.48 and 7am I didn't have the laptop turned on. My phone was on though, but by the bed.

How has this happened and how can I track down how to stop it?

I'm writing this on my Windows desktop, can send details of other devices if useful.

Firefox is a browser but not a search engine correct me if I'm wrong. Also now when typing in the search box down by the start button searches come up but I cannot get links to open when I click on them and even if I right click on them nothing happens

i was learning digital marketing from udemy on your browser and two chapters voices are overlapping. Beacuse of that its getting difficult for me to understand a topic.

I see this as a performance problem, and one that I'd hoped would be solved by now, since others brought it up in an Apple Forum.

When using iCloud Notes, the list always used to have empty circles/radio buttons to click on when done. They have all become black squares instead. Apparently this happened, according to a poster, with version 131.0. If so, it is still a problem with version 132.0.2, which I currently have.

Please see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255794426?sortBy=rank where this appears in the Apple Forum.

Hello! My download settings are (and have always been): always ask where to download files (in all options). In the latest versions, Firefox automatically opens downloads in a new tab without asking and downloads them to the default folder. This is an inconvenience for me. Thank you for your attention
