When using YouTube system freezes between 5-30 mins, of start of any video. I have troubleshooted, i have checked every extension, i have run every diagnostics on hardware and software , checked and updated every driver but no results i tried checking online but didn't file any solution , the only thing i can do is to reset my system, it does not happen in any other situation. This is happening since the start of Oct'25, if anyone has any idea how to solve this kindly help.

I've repeatedly been unable to send a DM on a particular fb page ~ fb says it 'might' have something to do with my ad blocker! How do I disable just for that communication? (don't want to disable AB for anything else, I pick & choose that action. TIA

Gmail works on my phone (Android), Chrome, Opera, etc. It will no work in Firefox that I have used religiously for over 10 years. I've signed out of gmail and signed in...a dozen times. Nothing works. If I wish to read my emails, I switch to Opera

Why?

Hi!

Firefox has been my default browers forever, but recently (i guess with the last update?) when I try and use google image search, when i click a thumbnail instead of making it larger and displaying, it opens up like a mini tab on the right side, which ends up with the image displaying smaller than the original. This seems minor, but I do enough image searches that this ends up making it unusable to me in practice. I'm hoping this is just a setting i havent been able to figure out how to switch off.

Thanks for your help!

On some of my websites information is blocked. For example on my main bank site I can sign in to the site but all of my banking information is blocked so there is no account information. On my VA website I have a similar situation with information being blocked. for example I go to the messenger section and cannot see or write messages.

how do i block my location? Nothing seems to work. I want to search a site in another country but keep being directed to the site in the country I am in. I dont want to look at that site. I want the site in different country but keep being bounced to the current country site. I getting pissed

cannot search a site in the US when I'm in Mx. I DO NOT want the MX site. I want the US site and somthing keeps preventing me from doing so. I posted this previously and got answers that make no sense to me. Dont refer me to articles, they make no sense and those directions never work anyway. How can I get a real person to chat or talk to me to fix this or do I just need to use a different search engine?

My problem is the following. The website of my favorite football club regularly embeds videos within their pages. Clicking of the video within the club webpage shows the video without leaving the webpage. Recently opening the club site with mozilla stopped enabling me to see the embedded videos. An example of what I see on my screen now when using mozilla is in the first image uploaded below - instead of showing the embedded video, all I see is a small red rectangle with a "play" button in it. If I press the play button, the video starts, but shows within the extremely small rectangle and I cannot watch it.

This is not so when I use Edge or Chrome, as shown on the second image uploaded below, showing the exact same webpage (the address is https://levski.bg/video/%f0%9f%94%b5-%d0%bb%d0%b5%d0%b2%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b8-31-%d0%b1%d0%b5%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b5-%d0%b3%d0%be%d0%bb%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%b5-%d0%b5%d0%bc%d0%be%d1%86%d0%b8%d0%b8-%d1%80%d0%b5%d0%bf%d0%be/ ). The embedded video is clearly seen in its full size within the page, and when I click the play button it starts showing the video normally within the webpage without leaving the site and sending me to youtube, for example.

My question is, what is wrong and what can I do to start seeing the embedded videos normally again?

Thank you, Georgy Ganev

With Firefox 144, there is unasked for/unwanted AI introduced. How do I ensure that all AI is completely disabled in my browser? I found a link describing some settings, but want to confirm this will disable ALL AI in the browser. I don't want it, don't trust the privacy/security holes yet to be found and would prefer it was not included in Firefox to begin with. The list I've found is:

• user_pref("browser.ml.chat.enabled", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.chat.menu", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.chat.page", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.chat.shortcuts", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.chat.sidebar", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.enable", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.linkPreview.optin", false);
• user_pref("browser.ml.modelHubRootUrl", "");

Will this do it? What about:

browser.ml.chat.nimbus

Do I need to clear that field to ensure I don't get some auto opt-in in the future as more and more of this "stuff" is put into the browser?

Why not leave Firefox as a security/privacy conscious browser and put out a separate AI browser (FirefoxML?) for those that are not as concerned. How does Mozilla ensure that no information is leaked through AI from sessions for professionals that must protect physician/patient, attorney/client information or other legally confidential information?

I have no idea how 100k people can review an extension labeled ICLOUD PW EXTENSION and you guys can't either remove it for the scam it is or show it has your approval as an extension up to FireFox security standards. 2.7 stars 100k reviews looks like a scam. Simply my feedback. Can't tell if I should trust so I'll never trust it until it's sufficient enough.

I restarted my computer and Firefox has deleted my profile, including all bookmarks, settings, history, and add-ons. I had to make a new account using this email and google account which is the same email and google account I had on my old profile. Is there any way to retrieve my old profile?
