Firefox 67.0.4, with only uBlock Origin, Wildvine and some Cisco codec, refuses to load Outlook.com. No other site problems. It's as if MS is doing something to force me to use Edge to open their email. Very annoying.
Anyone else have this problem??
Also, WTH don't Firefox coders give an option to bypass entering your phone number for Firefox Sync? I am not giving anyone my phone number. Never gonna happen. I only Synced my Windows laptop to stop this ridiculous inability of FF to save my Top Sites. Since I can't progress I simply login my FF account to Sync, see that it re-loads my Top Sites, and that's all I can do in Sync.
BTW you folks manning the support fences here are doing a great job. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to track down the database solutions for the Top Sites snafu.
Thanks,

I noticed that there are some issues with certain websites in Firefox 68.0.2 (Mac OS X Sierra 10.12.6). Sites like LinkedIn are affected - entire pages don't load in a regular browser, but do load in a Private Window or in Chrome. Also, I teach at a university and the learning management system, Moodle, does not work properly unless I use a Private Window. (See the attached screenshot showing the home page with editing turned on in a regular window, above, and a private window, below. The Private window shows the Javascript-based "move" functionality, which disappears after the first second of a page load in a regular window.)
I tried all of the suggestions in this support thread--https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1170415--but none have worked: -- I disabled all add-ons and extensions -- I cleared all cache and cookies -- I switched to safe mode
I called my campus help desk and they walked me through changing the Content Blocking from Standard to Custom (I unchecked "Trackers") - still no luck.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!

When using SCCM to upgrade FF in Windows, it doesn't install until a user actually runs it... leaving behind old, insecure versions.

On Firefox (68.0.2) for Mac (OS 10.14.6): for the past month or so, most (but not all) Youtube videos give "If playback doesn’t begin shortly try restarting your device" error.
Videos play with no problem in my other browsers.
I have tried restarting in Safe Mode and the problem persists. Autoplayback is on. I also tried unchecking "Use hardware acceleration" in preferences, which had no effect (so I turned it back on). Clearing the cache has no effect.
Anyone have any thoughts?

I had been using FF prior to installing a single boot Linux Mint 19.2 Cinnamon Tina. I went from Linux Lite to Mint. When I opened the freshly installed FF and pressed "sync now" it restored all of my add-ons. All of the files were there. All thumbnails too. Now, when I go to Customize and click on the themes menu, I do not see any thumbnails of the downloaded themes except for the 3 default themes that come with FF. I also am unable to mouse over those 3 themes and have them display what they look like real-time. When I click on manage themes (and I have many), there are no thumbnails. When I right click and ask to view the image it gives me the following error:
Firefox can’t find the file at jar:file:///usr/lib/firefox/omni.ja!/chrome/toolkit/content/mozapps/extensions/null.

Typing anything in the browser is completely delayed until I stop typing entirely. If I type a sentence then no characters appear until I stop tying entirely, so the delay can be quite significant. When attempting to download a file and changing directories, it can take minutes to successfully navigate the folder changes (triple-clicking left side to get a response) and then 10 seconds or longer before it unfreezes and actually begins to download after clicking the "save" button.

I have an addon (TextNotes) which I believe stores its data in IndexDB, (which I think is common for the latest apps)
Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted about four years worth of notes! And there is no "undo" on the app. So far,developer has suggested CTRL-Z to undo ...but that is if you do it immediately and not moved to other pages!
IN THEORY, the old data must still be in some sectors on the hard drive, so I installed a file recovery program ... but I've no idea WHAT the file is called, or WHERE it's installed, assuming even that I could copy it from A back to B, and the DB will still work.
Failing that, I have a drive backup, (with about 20 partitions) but again no idea where it is stored, ie in C: drive, or somewhere in moz-Cache. Again, assuming I can 'restore' it my moving it from A to B.
There is an export / import option, so it must be capable of restoring a file ... just a case of finding the actual file, and saving it in the correct format ready to import
NB: I know from the web console, you can open "storage" to view localStorage files ... but that shows IndexDB as blank as I believe Firefox squirrels it away somewhere within its internal coding. So is there a developer option to view those files saved internally?

I have a HUGE problem
My sign-in email address does not exist any longer and I have no clue how to get rid of it.
I try to change the email to my secondary email but it wants to send a verification to the old email address.
I can't do that because the eprmary email doesn't exist unless someone else owns it, lord I hope no one has it.
So how can I get rid of the dead email address? How do I make my secondary email the only email address? I can always add a secondary later.
Without this I cannot sync all my Firefox settings & bookmarks across all my devices!
Thank you in advance for any help I can get.

If I run a 3rd party software, like Advanced SystemCare > Speed Up > App/Toolbar Cleaner I see there are a vast number (27 in my case) of plug-ins in Firefox. This opens many questions: 1. Why are the vast majority hidden in Firefox Tools>Add-ons? 2. What do these unwanted, secret add-ons do (here are a few: ebay (1.0), Amazon (1.1), Twitter (1.0), Bing (1.0), Wikipedia (1.0), Duckduckgo (1.0), Google search (1.0), etc)? 3. Do they/can they spy on me? (some probably do, as some are listed as ‘reporters’ (e.g., Firefox monitor (3.0), Web Compat (5.0.2), WebCombat Reporter (1.1.0), etc) 4. Do I have a choice? 5. How much do they slow down Firefox? 6. Why do they return after I delete them using 3rd party software? 7. Why doesn’t Firefox allow me to delete them within Firefox? 8. What is going on here and why wasn’t I told?
