When I try to make a Google search I get the following message, "I'm not a robot" with a reCAPTCHA: "Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?". This happens on Firefox, but not Chrome or Edge. If I 'Allow' Google in the 'Exceptions - Cookies and Site Data' then I do not get the message, but it takes several seconds for Google display the resulting page. However, if I delete the cookies/cache the message will return and I have to redo the reCAPTCHA. I have scanned with Malwarebytes, Bitdefender, Hitman Pro, Trend Micro House Call and Microsoft Defender, nothing detected. Running Win 10 (64) with 'Extended Security Updates', Firefox 147.0 (64), no additional Extensions or Plugins. Also I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox.

My instagram does not open on my firefox browser. I have cleard all the cookies and cashes. I tried Incongnito, hot spot sharing. I have tried everything its still not working. Can you help me?

Since I updated Firefox to 146.01, it no longer displays background colors behind buttons or websites. For instance, when attempting to play NYTimes Wordle, which highlights the letters in different colors to indicate whether they are 1) the correct letter in the correct place - Green, 2) the correct letter but not in the correct place - Yellow/orange, etc., there is absolutely no color at all behind the letters with the new FireFox update. I've attached a screenshot showing the exact same screen on Firefox next to Chrome (and I HATE to sue Chrome).

It also happens outside of the NYTimes website, where it doesn't display buttons (just the word on the buttons), or ads (not terribly upset about that), etc.

Importantly, it won't display checkbox selections, etc.

This keeps forcing me to have to open Chrome to complete what I'm trying to do.

Please fix this ASAP so I don't have to open Chrome anymore.

Thanks!

I can no longer log in to "EDD" to certify for my unemployment benefits using Firefox. When I called EDD, they said that because I was using Firefox as my browser that that was the issue. They said that others that were using Firefox were having problems as well. They said Firefox should be coming out with a fix, but I am am still not able to login. I have to open up another tab and use Microsoft Edge to login. This is a pain. Please help, Steve. I am not sure if one of the frequent updates I get from Firefox created the problem or perhaps changed a setting?

The website in question does not recognise that data has been entered when it comes from Autofill. The only solution is to manually enter the address details manually. This does not happen on the same website in chrome or Edge. This s enough to send me back to chrome....

Trying to log in to citizensbank.com. After I enter username and password, logs me in and immediately logs me out. Suspect the bank is doing something tricky, but an hour with their tech support didn't get me anywhere. As usual, they blame Firefox. Anything tricky I have to do I Firefox to counteract their trickiness?

I downloaded a newer version of Firefox and I still cannot get into my banking on mine it says to update my browser which I did I have Windows 7 and it's supposed to be compatible

When I try to log into Xfinity to pay my bill I get this. Is it related to Firefox? Thought I'd ask you before I tried to work my way to a human at Xfinity

Hello

I'm facing a frustrating problem. I asked an AI the following:

Firefox Developer Edition (v145.0.2) on Windows 11 host machine can play udemy.com videos but Firefox Developer Edition (v146.0b9) on Windows hyper-v virtual machine cannot.

I suspect the cause is due to either settings or the virtualisation Hyper-V. Other browsers (Edge, Brave) on the virtual machine can play udemy.com videos with no problems.

Gemini said: This is likely caused by a specific change introduced in Firefox Nightly/Beta (v146) regarding how it handles video decoding on Windows.

The Short Answer: Firefox v146 enabled FFmpeg-based hardware video decoding by default on Windows (previously it relied almost exclusively on Windows Media Foundation). This experimental feature often conflicts with the virtualized graphics drivers (Hyper-V Video) used in your VM, causing the player to fail (black screen or error) while audio might still work or the player simply refuses to load.

Is this true?

When i try to print a pdf file trough gmail trough the preview window of the pdf, instead of printing it downloads a pdf file with a very long name (example of real filename: ACFrOgAcZiEDMs3JEBQmIpDaAGloJLSCzqQnju2ahdPe2m6v--kxq5xmHsQ3_OiYnd1RVZ5fR46JDQDXONNeSB2VeMNtaXzW3U7wPL1OahSYDRH2GxIrcVbFC68h2sFQPuJpmH_Id0M_oYukAKAjAq4dkn6a4oiPfF9Un5V3Cw==) which looks like javascript to me.

when I open the pdf file (my default viewer is adobe acrobat) it opens the file instantly with the print dialog open.

I have tried about:config booleans regarding opening and downloading pdfs

I have tried checking firefox settings and there is only "always ask", "save file" and "adobe acrobat" options and no "open in firefox" option and when i make it "always ask" and choose "open in firefox" from that option it just repeatedly gives me the "ask" window on new tabs each time i click ok.

I have also checked popups for gmail, they were not blocked so i have disabled and re-unblocked popups from gmail site

it works on every other site but gmail which is the main place i need to print files from.

Hi everyone, I visit Rojgar--result, website almost every day to check the latest job updates. But from the last few days, the website is not opening properly in my Firefox browser. Sometimes it takes too long to load, and sometimes the page looks broken.

When I open the same website in other browsers like Chrome or Edge, it works fine. So I think the problem might be with Firefox.

Can anyone please tell me if there is any simple setting or update that can fix this? Has anyone else faced this kind of issue before?

I have an Illustrator file save on Adobe's Creative Cloud. Tried to open it from Illustrator today and got this message (attached). I won't have any Google products on my computer and I'm not totally sure about how much MS Edge would follow me.

Can't figure out why Illustrator wouldn't open or download an Illustrator file. Or why Adobe would direct me to Chrome or Edge.

Not just Adobe products though - my local grocery store wants me to use Chrome to order groceries online.

What's up all of a sudden? Is it the new update??
