While using Facebook, I changed some Meta setting to block ads, then unblocked it. After this, Firefox does not show any Facebook info. Switching to Edge, everything shows as normal. Can't see any setting on the Firefox settings page that controls this.

Myself and a colleague who both use Firefox on Mac are experiencing the exact same issues.

1. Table header cells don't show their text, unless we specify a font for the table

I tried to put an example of the HTML here but it was rendered as a table by this page. I'll add some images of the code instead to show it.

In Firefox the Header cells are not visible, but in Chrome the text appears correctly.

If we add CSS like...

<style> table { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } </style>

...in the header then the missing text in the THs appears.

2. Other font issues

The Wave accessibility extension has text that doesn't appear and throw errors like this in the console...

downloadable font: rejected by sanitizer (font-family: "Open Sans" style:normal weight:400 stretch:100 src index:3) source: moz-extension://b86260c9-33f6-4529-b12f-a101d8607bd4/styles/open-sans-v17-latin-regular.woff

These only occur on Firefox on our Macs. Fine on PC and other browsers on the Macs.

We tried a whole series of tweaks to settings to try fix this.

I have tried resetting Firefox and doing a fresh install but nothing fixes either issue. Are these known issues with recent Firefox releases on Mac?

I deleted all the shortcuts from Firefox desktop browser's homepage and now I cannot add them back.

There are no blank shortcut icons on the page anymore. No setting to enable them. Shortcuts are enabled. Page is mostly blank, only has Firefox icon.

I tried to close and open Firefox as well as disabling and enabling the shortcut setting. Adding more rows did not do anything.

Before this issue occurred, I had one shortcut on the page that was linking to localhost. I opened the edit window to the shortcut and pasted the same address and saved changes. After that I removed the shortcut. All of the blank tiles immediately got removed from page and I had no way of adding more shortcuts.

How can I get back the ability / setting I always had to see the right side 'mini-view' of my monthly calendar? I used to be able to see each day on the right side of my calendar - now it's not showing??? I'm sure it's a simple display setting or option - but I can't find it - please help...

macOS 15.6 Firefox 141.0.3 - my preferred browser

I've seen a number of posts regarding this problem since the Firefox 141 update. I've tried a number of suggestions, although my problem seems slightly different.

I can apparently login to reddit OK but when I try to access a subreddit thread, a warning comes up - see image.

I have cleared Firefox site data, cookies, cached files, etc - problem remains.

I have restarted Firefox in Troubleshooting mode - problem remains, so not an extension.

However, https://old.reddit.com has no problems with Firefox, lets me access threads, etc and comment.

No problems accessing reddit with Safari or DuckDuckGo browser.

I am old-school security conscious & have been using FF since its inception. Really. Clear my cache & delete browsing cookies on a regular basis. I use a private window for shopping and q&a info gathering. Recently I saw Walmart.com showing up in my cookies and couldn't figure out how/why as I *only* look at Walmart in a private window. Today I realized Walmart has managed to bypass the private window options and place cookies anyway! To say I'm furious about this is an understatement. I have adjusted my settings to "Strict" but it's still able to bypass the private window and is staying on my computer. I am updated to the most recent FF version; running MacOs Sonoma 14.7.7 which was just recently updated; I'm not going past this one for now but that really shouldn't be the issue. This is most definitely a FF issue and one that needs to be rectified not just because it's Walmart but because if they can do it so can others soon enough. This cannot stand.

This is the message I receive when I try to sign in to my Adobe account online:

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at auth.services.adobe.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

How do I check that Firefox has permission to access this page? Or, what else do I need to do to sign in to my account?

Thank you!

I asked a question about a week ago. I can't even see the question anymore. While this was going on I received these emails. All times are in Australian CST.

I am as much a believer in security as the next person but I don't understand what is going on,

I have had no response to my original ticket, which I beleive was number 305857 which I can no longer find any refernce to in my account, and I still have a completely blank Library! and I can't even make any new bookmarks!

Plaes help, Yours sincerely, Ms Jacq Felis (AKA Kaelkitty).

Hello, we were just assigned brand new laptops at work. I had IT install Firefox for me, and I'm attempting to sync my firefox account with my previous one so that I can load all the open tabs I had on my previous laptop. I appeared to have signed into my account just fine on the Mozilla pages, but when I go to the hamburger menu in the top right of the browser, I see no icon for my profile, nor any option for "sign in and sync" like the help guides are instructing me to click on. I can't pull up anything related to syncing in the settings, either. What exactly am I missing? Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Firefuxxed was refusing to open new tabs so I shut it down and restarted it (always fixes it) and all my pinned and open tabs were gone with no way to recover them, it took me half an hour to manually restore the pinned ones one by one but not all of them as I cannot remember all of them let alone all the open tabs I had (hours of research gone down the toilet).

There should be a way to backup and restore pinned and open tabs so this doesn't happen, the history option does nothing.

OS: Linux Mint 22 fresh install from a week ago Previous version of Firefuxxed updated after this shamossel.

When I have multiple tabs open, around the 6th tab, the entire computer freezes. I have to press the physical button to shut down and restart. This behavior started with the last Firefox update. It doesn't happen when I use Brave browser. What changed to cause this?

I'm running Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint mint 100 - 1.0 version 141.0.3 (64 bit) on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon. These are the latest versions of Mint and of Firefox for Mint.

Hello, since I installed the Firefox 141.0 update today, I can't login to Reddit. I tried logging into Reddit right after updating Firefox, so did a System Restore to see if that corrected the problem, and it did.

To double check, I installed the Firefox 141.0 update again, and encountered the same problem logging into Reddit again, so it's definitely this new update causing the problem.

I've attached the Reddit messages I get. The 1st is the initial message, and the 2nd after I retry logging in.

I would greatly appreciate help with this.

Thank you,

Michael T.

Hi,

I discovered today that the installation of Firefox I have has modified some emoji, like the flag of Switzerland has been replaced with the one from Sark. See the screenshot looking at the same website with Firefox on the left, and Brave on the right:

There's a big mess in the flags' emojis apparently looking at a page showing all the countries. See second screenshot.

Since Flathub list the org.mozilla.firefox app as official, i hope this is the correct support channel.

Recently i switched from distro specific package managers to flatpak as my application provider. The firefox flatpak won't play most embedded Video/Media on applications like in-browser fediverse clients, forums, blogs or wikis. Youtube works without any issues, Twitch is fine until there is an adbreak. Then it sometimes stops with the supported format/mime error (screenshot appended), only recoverable by cache-dismissive reload.

I used this Article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/audio-and-video-firefox and the links it contains to debug without any success. None of these samples play. just shows supported format/mime error https://test-videos.co.uk/bigbuckbunny/mp4-h265 At this test website 1. and 3. example won't play. I provided a screenshot before and after trying to click play on all the examples. https://www.tekeye.uk/html/html5-video-test-page

Contrary to the observed behavior about:support#media claims Software Decoding supported for everything except HEVC.

Chromium Flatpak has no such issues. So i copy the video url and play it with chromium. You can see: dire times.

Hi guys,

Recently my hamburger icon menu (the one that has options like refresh, share etc) broke and all the options are massive. It looks incredibly stupid and is really annoying, is there any way for me to fix it without reinstalling the browser?

I figure this is the best section for asking this question, sorry if it isn't!

Thanks!

Just updated to FF 141.0.3. The browser had advised me to restart to finish the update. So I did. But in doing so, not all my tabs were recovered.

Most were, but like 3 were not.

Specifically Youtube videos, Youtube music songs and nothing else either never load (95% of the time), load only the first 10 seconds and then buffer or load partially after ~20 minutes. No error messages. Only in Firefox.

I tried: Reinstalling Firefox Switching profiles Disabling all extensions Running in safe mode Clearing site's cache and cookies

It's been like this for a couple of months. Been circumventing it by playing videos in a different browser, but would be nice if there was a fix.

It's a repost btw, posted 2 weeks ago and got 0 views.
