Running an old Mac mini and Catalina. Firefox 128.14.0esr (64-bit)

As of today I can't log in to PayPal from my desktop using Firefox as my browser, it says I am "blocked" I spoke to Paypal and the account is fine. From the same machine and the same internet connection, I can log in with Safari and do not get the Blocked message. I can log in via Safari and my iPad. I can log in with ethernet or WiFi (different ISPs, one BT, one Spitfire) as long as it isn't Firefox.

All signs point to the old browser. Can/will this be fixed? Cheers,

Hi folks,

New to Mac. I have HDR in Safari, but cannot find out how to enable in FF 140 ESR. I do have Wide Gamut enabled and working.

Is there a way to turn this feature on?

Thanks!

I am on Mac and our company uses Google Workspace tools. Over the past few weeks my google pages are continually loading and lose connectivity. When I run Chrome I never have this issues.

143.0.4 (aarch64) Version

I ran developer tools network. I see lots and lots of ns_binding_aborted errors.

What can I do to ensure Google plays nicely with Firefox. I really don't want to use Chrome but this issue is making it hard to use.

Please help

My bookmarks have all disappeared, and while I have tried to follow the instructions on the help page to restore them, nothing is working as it has been indicated that it should in the help instructions. I do still have my Bookmarks tab on my tool bar. When I click on it I get a pull down menu, which does have a Manage BookMarks bar. However it is not at the bottom of my pull down menu, but at the top. When I click on the Manage BookMarks bar, instead of getting an Import and Backup Button, my pull down menu disappears, so I can not select Restore to use to get dated backups.

In the same way, I can not create new Bookmarks. When I click on Bookmark Current Tab, instead of getting the white box to enter instructions, the pull down menu disappears, just as it does when I click on Manage Bookmarks. I have never had this problem with Firefox before in all the years I have used it. I have no idea what has happened.

I have spent the last half hour searching with Google and on Muzila help – everywhere that I can possibly think of and every combination of words and every hit I get that supposedly is the instructions on how to recover sync by entering my account recovery key NEVER leads to a page where I can enter my account recovery key.

HELP!

Thanks!

Firefox just updated and ALL of my bookmarks are gone. There is NOTHING. WTF? I am not a computer person so reading help articles just makes my head spin and of course I can't reach a real live person at Mozillabold text. Can anyone help?

Hi again, your answer didnt help - below you see the message I get when trying to book a flight on sas.se

I am trying to set up a new computer. I have customized the homepage and new windows to a preferred page, however I cannot customize the new tab settings. The only options for a new tab are either Firefox homepage or blank page. I am trying to find a way to have my preferred homepage open when I open a new tab.

This is a bit of an odd question, but I'm gutted. I have pretty severe OCD and AI tools have become very problematic for my reassurance seeking behaviors. I just got all of them blocked using tools like coldturkey and screen time. Now as of this update they're all in my firefox sidebar, and so far I see no way to block, only hide them (the trouble here is I know it's there, if I'm feeling a compulsion it's incredibly difficult not to follow through). Is there any iron clad way to block this? I hate how hard these things are being pushed!

I regularly use a website which intercepts command-option-up and command-option-down for its own navigation. This is a central part of my workflow with this website, and without it it becomes completely unusable.

After updating to Firefox 140.0.4, these shortcuts are now used by the browser to switch tabs. I have not found any way to configure this. Am I missing some obscure way to do this or is this just impossible?

I imagine this change was made to support vertical tabs, but I'm not using those, so the command-option-left and command-option-right shortcuts make more sense for my horizontal setup. (I don't use those shortcuts either, though- I use ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab!)

Hi. I used to be able to just grab and image on a webpage and drag it to my desktop. Now I have to go through the whole rigmaroll of right click and save. Anyone know how I can go back to the faster way please?

Thanks.

all bookmarks have disappeared along with my passwords. how do I get them back? previous answers haven't helped. before that, I would have trouble playing video and audio together, if I turned the audio off the video would work then when I turned the audio back on the video stopped. I am about ready to delete Firefox and use another browser.

Hi,

There is no customization panel under settings/home. can you please tell me where can i find the customization panel? I want to reset the wallpaper to default.

I am writing an email with two photo attachments. Preview will not work (open) for me to double check the correct file is being sent. It will, however, open a file with only text.
