I'm having much difficulty in attaching a article I see to Facebook. Its possible the problem may be I'm not using the right instruction on the Firefox options when I right click the article I want to attach to Facebook. Some of those options are, Save link as, Copy link, when I right click for options. Can someone explain what is the right option to use? And, how do I proceed once I choose the correct option to make that attachment to a Facebook message I'm replying to? There are times a picture of the article will attach to the Facebook message, but the text that is associated with the attachment will not appear? Can someone please help? Thank you.

I have created a new Firefox profile. Now I want to copy my settings of the Developer Tools to this new profile. This should also include the custom device settings for the Responsive Design Mode. Is there a file (or files) in the profile-folder that contains these settings, and can I copy this file (or files) to the new profile? I found this link about copying profile files, but it doesn't mention devtools settings.

On the latest update to firefox, the browser now has a vetical tab in addition to the horizontal ones. I want to remove the vertical tabs, and ideally for it to never come back. I've searched the settings as well as the support features and can't find a way to turn it off. I am legitimately not going to use firefox at all until this issue is resolved.

Thanks

Firefox intermittantly 'mutes' audio on Pandora and SiriusXM sites

For a while now Firefox has what I will call muted audio on Pandora and SiriusXM. I say muted because I can still see the song or show continuing to play on the page, but there is no sound. On Pandora I can pause and then play the song and it will start again. On Sirius, sometimes pausing will work but many times I have to reload the page. It can happen after 30 seconds or 10 minutes, there is no consistency.

This does not happen with other browsers.

Any advice on how to solve this issue?

Firefox won't load videos that other browsers will. Typically, when I load a page, there's a big blank spot where the embedded video should be -- where the video shows up on Chrome or Safari. I've tried clear the cashes and reloading Firefox, but the problem persists. For many reasons, I'd prefer to use Firefox, but if I can't fix this, I'll stop using it at all. Can anybody suggest ways to fix this?

About once a week or more, a very small FF icon will appear on my desktop after startup. It will have a string of letters under it, like this one: hqWyUevN . I have never clicked on these things and always pitch them into the trash bin. But I do wonder what it is, what it means, and if it's a security issue of some sort.

Please speak slowly and use simple words. I'm not all that tech savvy.

Thanks!

I have ugpraded to a new macbook (from an intel macbook, this is my first apple silicon macbook - M4 Max). I am having trouble logging in to many of my accounts only when using firefox on my new macbook - eg. soundtoys, spotify - the only way I can get the logins to work is if I run an incognito window to log in. Is there a fix for this? Best, Joe

I prefer the tabs be below the bookmark bar, and successfully modified the CSS file to do this some time back. Now update 133 has once again pushed them up below the menu bar. What do I have to do to get them back where I want them this time? And why can't you just leave the tab location preference alone when doing updates?

I often receive a 403 error when using Firefox Every time, before this happens, I get the unsafe website warning and then the 403 error when I continue anyway


I am using the latest version at the time of writing These errors only occur on my desktop PC I have tried to replicate this issue on both my phone (Android) and another laptop(Windows 11) but all the websites work normally on there.

I have tried the following, none of which have any effect:

  • Clearing cookies
  • using Troubleshoot mode
  • Restarting
  • Changing Useragent
  • Using "Forget about this site"

The following do fix the issue

  • Using a VPN
  • Using Google Chrome
  • Running Firefox in another profile

Going through the privacy and security tab and reseting all the settings sometimes works but only temporarily

The following are a few websites where the issue occurs

  1. https://kdice.com/
  2. https://latinitium.com/
  3. https://theysaidso.com/

I entered valid license numbers (230880, 239798). Firefox displays NOTHING, no error message. Safari displays the relevant info.

Why is this and what should I do if I want to continue using Firefox? Thanks.

When open Google Drive using Firefox, I cannot click on any documents. I can open folders but the documents in these folders I cannot open. I can open Google Docs and then access documents but all documents through Google Drive including in the Shared Folder are greyed out and when I click on any of these I get the pop up "This file cannot be opened because you're offline." I can access Google Drive and its documents using Chrome. I would prefer to use Firefox.

I have updated Firefox, cleared the history, and emptied cache and cookies. I also logged out of and then back into my gmail account.

The image shows what the drive looks like when opened in Firefox.
