Hi, For many months I have been using the plug-in for the Duolingo russian Keyboard and everything has worked correctly until yesterday. The relative keyboards (russian & english) appeared on screen when the exercise needed it. Now the plug in doesn't work anymore. Why? Is Firefox making some improvements for this plug-in. Thanks for a reply and help. Lorenzo462 /

Hi all, pdf embedding is not working on mac firefox v66 64bit now while it used to work in the v65. To be 100% clear you can reproduce this issue by visiting https://pdfobject.com/ In the grey frame where there should appear a pdf embed there is white and there are no errors in the console.
I am also the one who reported it broken in windows10 v65 32bit https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1250314
So clearly the bug that caused this is now propagating to other versions. Can someone please investigate?

ive just got a new pc build using some of my old hardware. before my old pc was disected i synced firefox to try and back it up. now i have firefox on my new os (win10) my bookmarks wont sync no matter what i do. ive tried logging out and back in, ive made sure the boxes are all ticked and restarted both firefox and pc multiple times. i still have access to my old win7 files and have tried to search manually for my bookmarks but cant find any folder that might contain them. Also my addons dont seem to be syncing either.

I have Firefox ESR 52.4.1. At first that seems perfectly fine. All webpages open perfectly fine, as Firefox ESR 52.4.1 supports the very newest HTML5 standards. All the samples at https://typedesign.netlify.com/consolas.html and https://typedesign.netlify.com/customfont.html work perfectly fine.
But not all extensions are compatible.
The problem is, I can't really update it. Each time I update Firefox, the word "Quantum" appears in the About Firefox dialog, which clearly indicates that this isn't an official version of Firefox. So I have to downgrade to get the proper Firefox experience.

https://i.imgur.com/T6cvwSK.jpg
I have 32gb ram so why cant firefox use 20gb? Firefox often max out at 7gb like the image, but once or twize i had it 9gb, but very rare, so why must my firefox lag using 7gb ram when it have another 15gb to pick from ? This is not about how to make firefox faster byt removing, resetting or that yada yada that google shove in your face when you search, I would rather increase ram to make it faster...If I upgrade to 64gb can i get firefox to use 50gb+ of ram ?
If so how do i do that, i feel like I always have lost of ram free, but firefox still lag instead of taking more ram to make it self go faster

I have a Win10 64 bit pro system with tons of processor power, memory, bandwidth, etc. All patches and driver updates installed. FF 66. This problem has been here for months, doesn't seem to be version sensitive. At the start of nearly any video, the audio is in sync. Audio quality is fine (no hiccups or interruptions). But for every minute or so of playing, the audio and video fall about 1 second out of sync (usually, audio ahead of video...but not always...). If I hit pause and then resume play, everything is back in sync but will slowly fall away. Videos play fine in standard desktop viewers (e.g., .MOV, .MPG etc), so I don't think it's a windows problem per se. I've gone through all the suggestions in the first two pages of Google results, and gone through all the basic stuff within the FF forums. No change. But, I may well have missed something.

Numbers are all weird and unreadable. I cannot tell what number is what, if I copy and paste on the of the numbers into a search bar I can see what the number is. But they all seem to be this 'squiggly' line looking stuff. I have tried restarting my browser, running in safe-mode, reverted fonts to default, unmodified fonts in the about:config, Nothing has worked. Any help or link to a fix would be much appreciated.

Good day, Dear forum Members!
Recently, voluntarily and forcibly I have updated Firefox and, despite the disabled tick - "update automatically", etc. Of all the problems that fell on the Fatah of the above significant event remained the most difficult, which I can not solve.
After the upgrade, some virtual hosts stopped working. I did that:
- Enter «mysite.loc» into address bar
- Firefox thinks a several of seconds
- The message "Failed to Connect" appears
- more in the address bar and miraculously appears «https://mysite.loc» (httpS - ???)
I have test in terminal CMD.EXE, type: «curl mysite.loc» - the code is displayed in the console that work!!
Look screenshot in attachment below the post...
Open other browsers: Opera, edge, chrome - the same situation like as Fireox: "Failed to Connect" "https://mysite.loc " (https )
I try to reset the cache DNS. Reboot my OS. Trying Again. The problem remains.
Got into the Apache config. Made a copy of the virtual host with exactly the same parameters, but with a different domain «mydomain.loc» of control. Restart WAMP. Typing in FF — «mydomain.loc» (changed from «mysite.loc») - everything works!!! ?
What needs to be done to work as before???
P.S. strange thing.. firefox updated to version FF 66.0.2 x64.. and the program is why it runs out «C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox»??? In the catalogue «C:\Program Files \Mozilla Firefox» lie files too after updating.

Having a search "feature" that does not immediately come up with not only the bookmark but also it's location in the bookmark folders is frankly useless. It has been driving me crazy for years, and is what eventually made me give up on Firefox. Yes I know there are extensions that can do this (though I am now a bit out of the loop and don't know of any current ones) but they are simply not the solution. Extensions change and are often disabled after an upgrade leaving me to scramble looking for yet another half assed solution.
Imagine if the file manager on your operating system allowed you to find the words "idiot" in a file somewhere on your system but didn't give you any way to actually find the location of this file in your system without lots of extra work! That would be completely unacceptable - Well that is what I have with Firefox!
As users, lazy developers of all sorts of software have tried for years to force us to store our snippets of data in one gigantic box and then force us to rely on searching, sometimes for ages to find whatever it is we put in that box.
This is not how organized people like to work. Putting every single tool I own in a big box in my garage would be insane and using that system would be just as insane on a computer or in an application. We generally put woodworking tools together, mechanic type tools together, measurement tools together, electronics tools together. Then when we need that funny little thing we use to pry open mobile phones, we can find it, even though we don't know its name or exactly where it is, it is with the electronics tools, we go to that box, drawer or wall-board and ah, there it is, no unpacking a huge box of unrelated tools (The thing we are looking for is always at the bottom).
Well my bookmarks are the same. There are times when a directory system does not help and then I rely on searching but most the time my work flow is like this: Today I am working on a robotics thing. I remember seeing a cool little motor I came across when I last worked on robotics stepper motors I remember the name of the stepper motor so I search for it. It shows me the directory I put it in and presto there too I find the information I saved about the other cool little motor. I have this happen over and over. This the only reason I save bookmarks. Hell if I am going to throw all bookmarks into a single box an use search then why bother with bookmarks at all? I can just use Google or DuckDuckGo or whatever other search engine takes my fancy!
If there are other people out there that feel like I do, please note your irritation here so that those wonderful people who give so much of their time to improving Firefox can know that this is a big issue.
If there is a new search tool that also shows the directory structure, please bring it to my attention.
BTW, I am whining a lot in this post but it is because I love Firefox and really miss using it. If programming were my passion rest assured this is something I would be happy to help with but it is not, my skills lie in other areas where I regularly contribute to the good of others. Thank you Firefox developers.
My bookmarks have become quite messy since losing the ability to easily find things and I want to bring them back into line. I miss being able to find stuff I liked.
Oh and please don't tell me "Tags" - tags are another half assed solution for this workflow. Tags have their place and are useful but not for keeping things organized. They are too reliant on searching.
Tags: So all my tools are in one box with a sticky label tagging some as woodworking, some as metalworking, some as electronics - that is still one very big, very messy hard to work with box of garbage!

I strongly believe that Cookies Exceptions should work as it is expected to work, i.e. One should allow or not allow cookies from certain sites. When one allows cookies for a certain site, this site should be able to store a cookie anyway, even if one has cookies "closed" (not allowed). Otherwise, what's the use of the "exception" if you open cookies for everyone? They will all store their cookies whether they are in the "Exceptions" list or not.
Now, allowing cookies **for a single session only** can solve part the problem, since during a session there may be hundreds of cookies stored and you don't want that!!
If FF really wants to keep using the Exceptions list in the way it does, there should then be an additional list that will do exactly what I explained it ought to do. Which, of course is inefficient, i.e. is having two lists for the similar purpose. So, better use the Exceptions list for what it is logically expected to do.
