GM,

An individual website keeps defaulting to, and loading in, the German (https://de.website name here) language version. This has never, ever occurred previously. I have had no success in resetting the website back to the setting(s) which would have it load the page(s) in English, NOT German.

Thanks.

Both amazon.ca and mec.ca emails do not show anything in the body of an e-mail. If I use a different browser (duckduckgo) everything is ok and I can read the whole e-mail. This only started with the Firefox version 149 but is continuing with version 149.0.2. My email is handled by yahoo.ca via rogers.com. So far I am seeing this only with the two companies listed here.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Lately when following links from google searches to some sites I get a "can't find" or "access not allowed". These sites tend to be hardware stores - specifically Home Depot or Lowes and some times Walmart. It is NOT my OS!! Because I copy the URL and paste it into Chrome and it works just fine.

Obviously switching to Chrome would solve this issue - but I've used Firefox for years and prefer to stick with it.

What's changing out there that is causing these incompatibilities?

Running on a Macbook with Tahoe OS. Certain websites will not display my responses to a checkmark box. Certain websites will not permit changing a checkbox default setting. Specific example: https://cards.barclaycardus.com/ has a checkbox with remember user name defaulted to a check. Attempts to click to remove the check do not work. Also, on certain websites when entering login information that is incorrect, the message indicating to correct the item(s) in red or highlighted does not display the incorrect items in a highlighted condition. In fact at the bottom of this page, the response box labeled Email me when someone answers the thread does not display a response when I click on it, even though the "response" is accepted.

This is the message I get when trying to login to my Costco account: Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information).

Suddenly—with no changes made in Firefox, no power failures, no anomalous occurrences, and with the latest version of Facebook—Facebook would not display reels when clicked on.

What came up was at first a briefly (maybe a second) displayed image, but rather than remaining, the image disappeared, leaving an all-black screen except for the usual icons normally there: in the upper left, the "X" for closing the window and the Facebook logo; in the upper right, the Facebook menu, messenger, notifications, and account icons; at the middle right, the up and down circled arrows (which function but which lead to more displays of only black as well); and lower-right center, with the vertical display of the thumbs-up emoji, comment, share, the three-dots more options icons.

Firefox 149.0.2 is installed on a Windows 11 computer less than a year old (which has displayed no anomalous or unusual behavior at all).

Clearing the Firefox cache and restarting Firefox have done no good. What is wrong here?

Thank you.

Over the past 2-3 months, Outlook, when opened on Firefox, continuously signs me out and forces me to sign in whenever I leave it open for more than a few minutes. Some days this occurs 5 or 6 times and has become very annoying. Even when I choose 'trust this device', or 'keep me signed in', or 'don't ask again for 30 days', it just automatically signs me out. I use 1 desktop and 1 laptop and this problem exists on both.

Also: I have a default font chosen for email composition that the system all of a sudden seemed to not recognize. I can select all content in an email and change it to my default font but it doesn't use it automatically. It either uses Segoe or Calibri depending on which computer I'm using. I have one laptop & 1 desktop. Oddly, if I place my curser down at my signature, which is formatted with my preferred font, the system will then use the correct font. As I'm typing, if I need to correct something, after doing so and trying to type the next word, it refuses to put a space between the where the curser is and the first letter of the next word. I literally have to start a new line by using the enter/return key, type the next word, then use backspace to take it back up to the previous line where it belongs. These are both small details but drive me batty!

I checked with my IT dept and they had me do a test drive on Chrome, which I NEVER use. Sadly, none of these issues exist in that browser, so for the time being I'm forced to use Chrome if I want to avoid the constant need to sign in and the other irritating malfunctions.

Anything you can point to or settings I can change to fix these issues?? Appreciate your assistance! Kayla Bates

There is a bug in Firefox Browser where it doesn't allow you to scroll up in the chat during the livestream and keep your place there to read a message. It auto scrolls down to the new messages everytime a new message appears in the chat.

Firefox is the ONLY browser that does this so it must be a bug. Chrome, Edge, Opera, Brave, etc none of these do this. It is especially problematic in livestreams with many viewers and an active chat, making it impossible to read a previous message if you want.

It happens on all platforms, twitch, kick, YouTube, Parti, Rumble, anything with a live chat

Hello,

I am using my macbook air 2020 with the Apple M1 chip and the OS is Sonoma 14.7.4, to try and log in to Poshmark.ca https://poshmark.ca/ using my Google credentials and the screen looks like it is going to log in but then goes back to the main screen. I deleted the cookies for the site, but that did not work. I am not sure what else to do? Can you help me?

Thank you.

Why ? i d love to but why can t firefox do video calling from messenger is it Firefox or is it Facebook?you will force me to go to chrome or edge which i would rather not do please let me kno why this is thank you

Facebook page fails to fully load often (not always) and in some occasions it load partially -instead of a picture it shows a blank box with a description of what it is supposed to be on the box.

Using other browser (Edge for example) loads the page fine in the affected Laptop and loading on an IPad using Firefox works fine too.

I have "flushed" the WI-Fi and "requested" a new IP for this computer and it is hard to tell if this solves the problem temporary or it is just the on-off nature of the problem.

In other occasions the page appears to load ok but the pull down menu (like notifications) are "blank" or it just appears to be loading and never navigate to the requested page.

In the sample below (image) is similar to the issue although in this case the page loaded after a few seconds. Note the missing information.

Are their any plans anyone knows off to create a version of Firefox that supports the ability to use FileSystemAPI on directories.

The current one won't work with a BeatBuddy project and SD cards that are saved on my computer using their online editor - https://bbmo.singularsound.com/ - which forces me to use another browser for that...

On all our computers it seems impossible to sign into Outlook...several laptops and 3 desktop...even a new Apple device. Enter your email address and then taken to the next page (see attachment). sign in works with Edge! This has been happening for maybe a month. Very frustrating! NEVER opens the next security window, the 'spots' just keep moving forever...selecting "Back" just repeats the cycle.

Suddenly NY Times links think I am a bot, or there is a java problem, or I am clicking too fast (huh?), and I am being blocked. This started around the same time as the last update. Help! Thanks.....

Hi,

I’m facing an issue with my website’s fine checking tool on Mozilla Firefox. My website is evgfinescheck.com , and the tool works fine in some browsers, but on Firefox it doesn’t load properly and sometimes shows an error.

I am already using the latest (updated) version of Firefox, so the issue is not due to an outdated browser. The tool either fails to fetch data or doesn’t respond as expected when users try to check fines.

I’ve checked basic things like internet connection and browser updates, but the problem still persists specifically on Firefox.

Can anyone guide me on:

What could be causing this compatibility issue? Are there any common JavaScript, API, or CORS-related problems specific to Firefox? How can I debug or fix this issue?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, there is a problem with Youtube video hosting in the FireFox browser. When trying to play a video, there is an endless attempt to play the video. Attempts to fix the problem, including using about:config, were unsuccessful. We kindly ask you to let us know how to solve this problem, given that the problem is related to FireFox, since everything works properly in Chromium-based browsers. Thank you in advance!

a web site continues to say mozilla browser need update to correctly access web page. I have downloaded latest update ESR for Firebox (using windows 7 OS) But web site still says I need update! Is it me or the web site that has the problem?

If I upload a jpg image via the + in the Gemini prompt it fails with an ! or doesn't give the (up pointing arrow) execute option prompt. Do usual things and even clean installed Firefox. Same on 3 windows 11 PCs 2 of which not my own hence not configured the same. All did work until latest updates. No browser extensions antivirus temporarily turned off. Same in, private and safe mode. All work fine on Chrome or Edge (sorry to swear at you) A work around is to load them via Google Drive or Photo and pull them from Google platform.
