Description: while viewing videos on youtube, twitch, odysee (and possibly other sites with videos), the video player may suddenly stop playing, and after that, no video in firefox can be played. Restarting the browser makes this issue disappear for a while, but i'd like a permanent solution.

What i've tried so far: Disabling uBlock Clearing cache and cookies Enabling/Disabling hardware acceleration Disabling proxy extension Disabling antivirus on PC.

Lately I installed a new PC, and tried to download FireFox and sync my data. But my data seems like a few years ago, not as new as another PC I have now. I'm sure I have logged in with same account on them, how's this happend?

I have "Always ask you where to save files" checked in my preferences, yet Firefox saves downloads to my Downloads folder without asking. This was working in the past, it's only recently broken.

I'm using Firefox 140.0.2 on Mac (aarch64).

Hi. I installed Firefox on my old Hp, and have now taken another laptop, an Acer Aspire One and installed Firefox on that as well, but a extended support version. I am struggling to import all my bookmarks (ex Chrome) to my Acer, and in the struggle I done something wrong since Firefox on the Acer is now locked or blocked !! I am an "old Timer" and not very computer literate. Can someone help me solve these issues so that I can move away from the HP and depend on the Acer. I found Firefox easier to use as compared to Chrome, which seemingly demanded more memory from the computer.

When I start Firefox without any internet, i.e. Airplane mode, the browser starts up pretty quickly. However when I connect to internet, either via WiFi or LAN, the startup time increases dramatically. This means that Firefox is connecting to the internet, waiting for some server to respond and then finish the launching of the browser. I have been able to figure out that Firefox connects to the following URLs when it launches.

1. cdn.statically.io
2. img-getpocket.cdn.mozilla.net
3. ublockorigin.github.io
4. aus5.mozilla.org
5. content-signature-2.cdn.mozilla.net

Please note that this is not the complete list, it is just what I have been able to figure out. There might be other URLs that Firefox connects too, which I am not aware off.

So my questions are as follows 1) How do I come to know all the URLs Firefox is connecting too, when it launches? 2) How can I check how much time does the server take to respond back to Firefox? 3) Is there a way that to stop the connection between these servers and Firefox? For example, pockets is getting shut down and I do not use pockets. So I maybe the connection to img-getpocket.cdn.mozilla.net can be terminated or stopped. OR maybe the connection to content-signature-2.cdn.mozilla.net can be asychronous and need not hold up the browser loading and so on

In the latest update, the search engine toggle needs me to use the mouse. First, I just had to press ↓ and then toggle between the search engines. Now, I have to do an Shift + Tab to scroll through the list, which is tedious!

Can the old functionality be brought back or maybe a shortcut added for the toggle?

Hi Fresh reinstall WIn10Pro home office pc -- want to ensure OS (WIn10pro x64) doesn't alter behind the scenes.

Want to prevent MScopilot or other rogue AI is not hiding changes unclear/unknown to user. Pc Admins and also PC std users

Have FF v140 syncing to a Msoutlook userid and have donated under that id. The donwloaded install was done via a private window as Edge had to be used.

New installs of everything. Full virus scans etc. latest updates. But still seems like MS trying to prevent using FF unaltered.

Is it best to set up a profile and then disconnect sync; then reset FF periodically and turn sync back on? Some IT people said they've done that for a while.

Are local windows users not supposed to be able to save FF settings?

Are we inviting in MS by syncing and/or donating to Mozilla / Firefox with outlook.com addresses?

Thanks.
