I-Firefox Community Forum

Recently I have not been able to route the audio to external (wired) speakers when streaming music. The audio comes through the computer just fine. I have also tested streaming music on other browsers and the audio does go to the external speakers without an issue.

How do i get the audio back to me external speakers?

hi, i cant find an option to dismiss the new sidebar. it's pointless and i can switch all the buttons off, but now there is just an empty space at the side of my browser. very annoying. i hate the AI integration and i will not be recommending this browser to anyone in the future because of it. I have spent years convincing others to make the switch to firefox, but what's the point if it ends up just as toxic and useless as every other browser. disappointing.

Maybe it is my spiritual guides because i obsses and have OCD and have too many tabs. But i started having tabs get deleted and i have no tabs on re-launch, tried to check, re-check this. I Am not sure if to reinstall because i don't want to lose passwords or setting/history (i don't remember now it should be saved) but usually reinstalling doesn't solve anything for me anyways...

I didn't install any new extensions when it started happening!

It doesn't happen every time so it is hard to troubleshoot, i cannot use browser with safe mode. I might test it couple times.

I keep getting a small box that appears in the upper right corner of my yahoo email home screen that says it is from Firefox and asks if I want to upgrade to the latest version of firefox. If so click here and the upgrade will be installed and your open website connections will still be open once it has been accomplished.

I'm nervous about just believing anything that is presented or pitched to me on the internet.

Upon accessing the firefox website just now under upgrades it says that upgrades to firefox will be made automatically as appropriate, but if I want to manually install an upgrade there is a way to do it.

• • • Is the small box offering to upgrade my firefox browser actually from firefox? Or some scammer?

I'm thinking that if upgrades are done automatically, why would I get this box asking me if I want to install the latest upgrade?

I am still using Win 7 but converting to Win 11. The most recent "patch Tuesday" update from MS killed Office 2016. Since then Fire Fox will occasionally pop up the "Couldn't load XPCOM." (no file extension) warning. It may do this when opened but not always. Can also occur in the midst of a session.

Program seems to be working correctly but some of my pinned locations disappeared when this started. New locations are retained between sessions. Is there a problem with continued operation with this warning? Is there something that I can do to repair it.

Ran into an interesting bug with Firefox since installing the macOS26 Dev beta. Whenever I use command space to bring up spotlight, Firefox become unresponsive, the beach ball will spin. It will only happen if Firefox is in focus when I use spotlight, and only if I am signed into Firefox sync.

I am not sure of a way to help replicate this issue as it seems to only happen when signed with Sync, but I would be happy to provide additional if I can.
