Produces a "page not found" error. Works perfectly on Chromium, Chrome & Vivaldi.

Is there a way to make firefox show long titles in popup on hover. The default behavior is to show link address which is redundant because the link address is already showing in the bottom left corner on hover, but long titles are partially hidden.

I have Firefox set to "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" and also "Clear history when Firefox closes" (with everything set to clear except site data).

Then I have an exception list of sites to save cookies and site data for (for example, youtube.com).

The problem I have is that not all of the cookies are deleted when I exit. In addition to the sites on the exception list, there are others not on the list that remain.

For example, in the screenshot, this is a cookie from gleam.io. It's setting it for domain .youtube.com, and this is one of the cookies that remains. I believe it's remaining because youtube.com is on the exception list. However, it should be deleted because it's for the gleam.io site. If I check the browsing data in Firefox after restarting, it shows up as site=gleam.io.

Furthermore, I question whether the cookie should be allowed in the first place, since I have Strict Tracking Protection enabled, which should disable all cross-site cookies.

I have recently begun to have hard 'hangs' while attempting to view a video on a site I'm already connected to. I've tried to overcome these hangs, but they continue to happen even after firefox has been in use for a short time. I have to restart my computer, since the hang is locking up all control input.

I recently updated to 147.0.1, and now it seems I can no longer access word/excel/powerpoint files for online editing. I have already tried clearing cookies, disabling adblockers, disabling tracking protection, running in a private window, all the way down to completely reinstalling Firefox 147 fresh. This has persisted for roughly a week, so it does not seem to be an issue with my own network connection, nor with Microsoft's services, nor my files specifically since I can edit the files online from my PC at work. The error message specifically reads:

We can't connect to the server at usc-excel.officeapps.live.com (or usc-word-edit.officeapps.live.com or usc-powerpoint.officeapps.live.com, respectively).

I could previously access these files to edit when I was still on Firefox 146, so I'm guessing it's something going on with 147. Has anyone encountered similar issues with Web Office apps, and perhaps found a resolution?

The blinking screen is on ebay but it just keeps on blinking. I have tried other programs and it only happens with this one and only with ebay. This is the new tab stuff: https://www.ebay.com/itm/401568771184?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D777008%26algo%3DPERSONAL.TOPIC%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D265563%26meid%3D7245a46a376945799ec6d6e8ae3176fa%26pid%3D101967%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26itm%3D401568771184%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D4375194%26algv%3DPersonalizedTopicsV2WithDynamicSizeRanker%26brand%3DFintie&_trksid=p4375194.c101967.m162920&_trkparms=parentrq%3A88a4a82d18f0ad8bbb523870fffffa70%7Cpageci%3Ab38440d1-149b-11ef-b242-1adf3ab78462%7Ciid%3A1%7Cvlpname%3Avlp_homepage&afsrc=1&mkevt=1&showcs=1

Thoughts?

at present it is 32bit Llnux Firefox ChaletOS. It appears it wants 64bit Linux but every time it only allows me access to 32bit version which tells me is out of date. What is happening?

I tend to have long and extensive conversations on Firefox's Copilot AI but I've run into an issue that makes this more difficult. When I press CTRL + F to search for text through a chat, it only searches on the webpage I have open on the right. I was wondering if there is a feature that exists that does this that I'm not aware of, and if not, maybe that could become a thing later?

Hello Firefox community and thank you for your time and effort. Let me begin by saying I used to have this same issue with MS operating systems until I said goodbye to MS and went to Linux on one laptop and got a Mac for streaming and graphics. Here is the issue: MS had so many background processes running constantly, regardless of what I was using the machine for, that I regularly experienced crashes, warnings and slowed responses on my Windows machines. No matter how vigilant I was about settings and stopping processes and keeping system clean, I would regularly have to replace the fan on my machines as the constant overheating would eventually kill the fans. That has not been a problem since I made that switch away from MS. Until now. I keep clean machines and keep them updated religiously. But with the latest few Firefox updates the problem is now back on both my Linux built Lenovo and my MacBook Pro, especially the Mac. That regularly shuts down after an hour of streaming use. When I hear the fan constantly struggling and feel the machines heating up I check the background processes and find that Firefox has at least four running processes eating up resources. Force stop does not fix the resource hogging; by the time it is apparent and I respond the machine is already overheated and shuts itself down. Last night I started searching and found a (very) recent thread about this same issue. Most of the participants were attributing it to recent updates. If this is the case is there any effort to fix this? I would hate to have this issue completely destroy my older (but still heavily relied upon) MacBook with this constant mechanical challenge since I cannot afford to replace it. Please can you fix this problem. It is an old and exhausting struggle I thought I would not have to deal with again. If my assumption of the source of the problem is inaccurate do you have any suggestions? Thanks again, Jerri

This happens occasionally for many months. It is still happening on v147.0.1. I start the computer, open Firefox, and the browser loads previously viewed pages, including my Gmail account. The Gmail page has me already logged in, and I DID NOT provide my password! This has to be a big security risk. If some one were to use my computer, or it was stolen, they would have complete access to my Gmail and all Google properties! OS - Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) Kernel v6.1.0-42-amd64 Firefox v147.0.1 (and MANY previous versions)

I'm having problems with Firefox using 75% of processor capacity. In "top" I see many instances of "Isolated Web Co".

At the moment of this screen shot the processor is not overwhelmed, however, it will sometime jump up to 75% and the system will seem to freeze.

What is the "Isolated Web Co"? I'm thinking a virus.

Thank you.

I want to have an automated task that sorts the incoming mail to separate folders. I have done this easily in Outlook, but Firefox's Thunderbird is different and I haven't figured it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
