Apparently there's a new PDF feature that shows up on the right in a sub-window whenever I try to view a PDF. "Now you can highlight your PDFs!" it screams. Unfortunately I can't use it nor can I get rid of all the "real estate" that it takes up. I'm using a fully-updated FF browser on an ASUS E410 with Win11 H23. I've tried every possible option to change the FF magnification or my screen size. NOTHING WORKS. Before this thing intruded my space for viewing PDFs or changing PDF forms, everything was fine. Now I am forced to find another solution See attached.

I updated to 131.0.2 on a Win11 laptop. Now I am getting hit with frequent crashes involving web activities. I get a popup to submit the crash report but it fails with an "unable to submit report" message. I found a similar report that advised how to access the reports that spoke of a "submitted" folder. I do not find this folder, only multiple "pending" reports. They all contain only 10 bytes.

A couple of weeks ago my Firefox desktop suddenly stopped loading images correctly. This is especially true for image-heavy websites like Tumblr. Images will either not load or only partially load. It takes several refreshes to get even 75% of images to load properly (including Shift+Ctrl+R). My Internet connection and speed are normal. Weirdly, other browsers loaded images fine at first, but now they're laggy, too? They still work better in comparison, though. And the Internet on my iPhone and iPad are perfectly fine.

I've tried all of these multiple times: Restarting my PC, Internet, and router. Disabling certain extensions (especially those for Tumblr and ad blockers). Restarting in Troubleshoot Mode without extensions. Reducing number of tabs.

I tried the different Profile trick I found Googling this issue to death, and it works, but I want to fix my default profile's issues if I can. Oh, and YouTube is insufferable to watch and crashes the browser, but I suspect that might have to do more with what YouTube's trying to do with ad blockers. Especially since Chrome isn't much better on that count (aside from the crashing).

Edit: This issue started occurring around the time I downloaded the last Firefox update before the latest one. I thought installing the latest one might solve the problem, but it didn't. This might just be a coincidence.

A few times now I have suddenly found Firefox unable to load any web pages all while other browsers and apps on the same Windows 11 system continue to function as expected. At first thought it was IPv6, so disabled that at the system level to no effect. Additionally confirmed that DNS over HTTPS is disabled as our firewall blocks direct access to known public DNS servers.

Today however I have noticed that Firefox seems to get into this state after I execute some actions in Microsoft Outlook web (https://outlook.office.com/mail/inbox/) , which I do have running in a container specifically for work pages (Firefox Multi-Account Containers)

If I force-close FireFox and reopen it, it will continue to function as expected.

There is this new notification asking if i want to use google mail on Firefox, and pressing 'Not now' or closing with the X does not help, this notification pops up on every Firefox launch

Ever since the update to version 131 (64-bit), I have found that Firefox's autofill feature is malfunctioning. When I try to autofill credit card details, it displays the details of the one card I have stored, but does not paste them in.

If I start typing them in manually on a web page it shows me that it already knows them, but if I stop typing and click on the displayed autofill it immediately forgets any characters I haven't just typed in.

Suggestions would be much appreciated (I now have 131.0.2 but the problem has not gone away). Many thanks.

When i search something on Google it shows the results based on my IP address. Towards the bottom of the search results at the bottom of the webpage the location of the IP address mentions the city I live in.

I frequently share my screen and don't want to share that information with others. How can I remove that information from appearing when I search for something on Google?

Each time I try to download an update to Firefox, the download promptly fails. This is true whether I try the regular or the extended support release version. The automatic update has been failing for weeks at least, and prompting me to do it manually. I have checked system requirements, I have everything necessary. My MacBook Pro is running 10.15.7 (Catalina) with 4 GB of RAM, 2.5GHz processor. Scads of memory available. The version running currently is very flaky, often takes multiple tries just to launch.

Hello everyone!

So for the past 2 days I've been having this problem where if I try to open firefox, it instead opens like a complete separate window (not even with the firefox logo on it)? And every time you click the firefox logo again it just opens a new window again. It's very frustrating. Does anybody know how to fix this?

I have tried all suggestions, including all three steps shown by Google ("enable cookies," "clear cache and cookies" and "adjust your privacy settings," and none work.

I have tested this with Chrome, Firefox (latest update 131.0.2). Firefox stopped showing select-able buttons a few weeks ago, while Chrome and the iPhone app on IOS 18.0.1 on my Phone display the items correctly.

CORRECT DISPLAY - See attached "Correct Display" JPG. INCORRECT DISPLAY - See attached "Incorrect Display" JPG

When I edit the original iCoud NOTE, and remove the selection buttons, then re-add them, I can see that Firefox FIRST picks up the correct radio buttons then VERY quickly changes them to black boxes which can neither be selected nor un-selected.  :-(

Last February, I installed an update that wasn't compatible with my macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra. As a result, my bookmarks disappeared. For a long time, I've been getting popups on a daily basis, and sometimes twice daily, telling me to update again. Based on my last experience, I not about to install any more updates. I want these messages to stop.

The Video Downloadhelper that I have in my computer is active when I open my Firefox browser. When I switch or open the YouTube tab, the icon becomes inactive and I cannot download any music from YouTube. What can I do and is there any solution for this?

Thanks in advance for your solution.
