I just noticed that the FVD add-on in Firefox 56.0 illegally allows Vimeo users to access and download my Vimeo video files from their Firefox browser, even though they are not set to download in Vimeo. Vimeo says they have no control over 3rd-party theft of their content, which is outrageous.
By sanctioning this Firefox FVD add-on, Mozilla is just as responsible for allowing this to happen.
Please tell me there is a fix.

I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) with firefox as my browser. I"m having a problem with playing videos and have tried to use firefox help lists to no avail. If I force quit the browser and then reload it I can play about 5-6 videos but after that it just buffers and tells me to restart my computer. I have removed adobe flash player and reinstalled it. I have removed the ad blocker I had on the computer and didn't re-install it. I have tried other things that are on the internet, nothing works. Any suggestions... please

I have a problem that is not a Firefox problem per se, but which is somehow related. I have used Firefox as my browser (Mac OS) for at least ten years. A few weeks ago I started encountering some odd things. On certain websites some things would not function. Examples: on a newspaper site I click the "search' button to open that field, but nothing happens; on various news sites that offer a slideshow, if I click on one it opens, but no images load and there is no way to advance forwards or backwards—it is just a black window that indicates it is loading, but it never does; another is a puzzle site I visit, but the daily puzzle no longer loads. But in all cases, if I try Safari all of those things work just fine. Even more baffling is the ESPN site, where certain banner information (scores and links to specific sport pages) do not appear at all even though the rest of the content shows and the links that do appear work fine. And even MORE baffling is that these problems, which only recently and suddenly occurred for no discernible reason, only afflict my MacBook. My iMac, which runs the same versions of the OS and of Firefox (both always current), does not experience these problems. Only my laptop. I have attached screen shots of a section of the ESPN website to show the problem, made on both my iMac, where everything appears correctly, and on my MacBook, where information and links are missing. Can anyone steer me to what the cause might be that is affecting my laptop? After ten years or so of never using Safari, I now find myself using it every day. I would appreciate any help. Thank you! [P.S. I don't know if this is related, but the first screen shot I selected to upload, which is only 115K in size, still hasn't uploaded after at least ten minutes, though the window shows it as uploading, with the circular icon moving around, much like those slide shows I mentioned. I am posting this without images. I think you get the idea. Frustrating.]

I just updated to 26 right now. I'm running OSX Mavericks. When I load Google Play Music, I get this:
"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Whether I click stop or continue, it makes no difference. All my music shows up, and I can click play, but it doesn't actually play. I shows the equalizer bars or whatever going up and down, but the progress bar doesn't move, so it's not just that it isn't making a sound. I was listening to music twenty minutes ago on 25.1 or whatever the last version was and did not have this issue, so it's definitely a 26 problem. Loading Play Music also hangs the browser for ten seconds or so every time. This blows. Please help.

Dear all
On of the websites I have editors right on doesn't have SSL installed.
Since I upgraded to Firefox Quantum, when I go to the login page, I can't enter my login details anymore. The field is not clickable. It works on other browsers.
Firefox does warn me that the website is insecure, but how can I go through anyway ?
Thank you !

Since the latest version 66.0.3 (64-bit) I get messages similar to the following. Often there is no specific error code.
Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to secure.tesco.com. SSL peer reports incorrect Message Authentication Code. Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_MAC_ALERT
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Ironically the html source shows the page is there and complete. Under 'Preferences->Privacy & Security I have unchecked 'Block dangerous and deceptive content" to no effect.
All is fine under Safari. This is a critical issue as I am having to abandon my much preferred Firefox for Safari, which does not have issues.

The company that I work with uses a company web that is hosted by a SBS 2008 Server. I can access the companyweb with chrome or safari, but Firefox does not work. The other two come up with a white screen and then a authentication box comes down to ask for your credentials. Firefox does not do this. It just has a white screen. It is not just my computer that is doing this. It seems to be all Macs that have Firefox. What is also weird is that Firefox for Windows works fine.

I tried to make a purchase and during one of the redirects Firefox reported that it was unable to establish safe negotiation (error code: SSL_ERROR_UNSAFE_NEGOTIATION). The site that had the problem is https://secure5.arcot.com/ . I have security.ssl.require_safe_negotiation set to true. However, if I set it to false and go to that site, Firefox reports that it uses "TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, 256 bit keys, TLS 1.2". I am not an expert in ciphers/TLS but the version seems sufficiently new.
I would like to report the problem but I need to know whom to report it. So far, it seems like a Firefox bug. However, I am not a security expect and, perhaps, the site is using a different obsolete SSL version to negotiate. How can I determine what exactly caused the failure?

In addition to the question below, another problem is not only are my email responses erased when the browser refreshes, the message itself is no longer available. I have to start from the beginning point in my email list, rather than remain on the once-opened email.
By the way, I have reset and restored my Firefox as a solution, which didn't help. I did this twice, following instructions. The process was tedious and I had to recover quite a bit of information, not to mention a problem with merged bookmarks. I'd like to avoid this solution, at all costs. Here's what I said earlier. Again, thanks for any/all help you can provide.
For the past several weeks, now, I've noticed that my browser "refreshes" the feed more frequently, so frequently, in fact, that any emails, forms, or survey questions that I am answering get wiped clean. This started happening with the latest update. I am unable to locate any setting in my preferences that will stop the constant refreshment (reload? page update?). This is also frustrating when trying to make purchases on line, and as I said, write emails, complete forms, complete surveys, etc.
Thank you in advance for quickly resolving this most frustrating problem? I use a Mac, and am running Mavericks. This problem was present with the previous OS, too. Thanks again!

Hello, I want to prevent third parties accessibility services to enter my browser. But the way this checkboix is formulated confuses me. If I check the box 'prevent accessibility services from accessing your browser' is it then enabled or disabled? What are the accessibility services here? I read all the instructions but still find it a confusing sentence to check or uncheck?
Should I read the sentence as "prevent Firefox Accessibility Service from accessing your browser'? Or should I read it as "prevent any type of physical impairment assistive software from accessing your browser?
Hope you could help me with this. And if so it could be nice to make this sentence a bit clearer. Or maybe I'm just a bit confused and you should just leave it like this;)
