I have problem with some websites, Firefox would flash white screen when I click between menu pages

1. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/onedrive/online-cloud-storage

Top menu bar, clicking back and forth with those menu links

1. https://www.ghacks.net/

Top menu bar, clicking back and forth with those menu links

1. https://mpv.io/manual/

Those 2 HTML links, click and press back then repeat

1. https://vndb.org/

NSFW, side menu, clicking back and forth with those menu links Footage, compare between Edge and Firefox:

1. Flash white, so maybe epilepsy warning
2. One of the sites is NSFW, but by default they're all hidden, some text may say "18+", etc, but no NSFW images were shown in the footage

https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmwlKvqIgGxK_Anfz5d4pnjOdLns This could be just Firefox default behavior, but it's a bit frustrating, I hope someone can help me with this.

What is it about YouTubeTV in Firefox that breaks my ability to control playback? I can click with mouse, but shortcuts ("Play (k)", "Back 15 seconds (j)", or "Forward 15 seconds (l)") stop working repeatedly and I'm forced to go back to using my mouse (Wacom Intuos Pro M). This doesn't sound like a big deal until you're forced to watch an offensive "My Pillow" ad or worse, and I can't immediately stop the playback of these radicalized terrorists. Or if while watching a DVR recording, it stops allowing me to skip thru commercials, or pause playback without picking up my pen (mouse) to get back in control of the 'playback' features.

Strangely, this never happens on YouTube videos/content. Those same controls ('shortcuts') work fine there.

I have firefox version 113.0.1 on two computers both running windows 10 Pro. the last update failed on both computers and firefox would not run so I reinstalled version 113.0.1 Any suggestions?

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz 8.00 GB RAM

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4590 CPU @ 3.30GHz 3.30 GHz 16.0 GB RAM

Hi, Firstly, I'm fairly new to this - so apologies if I don't describe this very well, or leave out any obvious info....

We use PKI certs generated by a third party - and I'm in the process of installing the Vsphere v7 certificate. We've got a process which I've followed once before and been fine. But this time, after I install the certificate, Firefox gives me a "SEC_ERROR_CERT_NOT_IN_NAME_SPACE" error. The only other Browser we have on our system is IE. When I entered the url of the Vsphere server, in IE - it did give me the Vsphere login screen OK. When I clicked on the padlock in the address bar, the new certificate was there, complete with its chain (Root CA and intermediate) and the dates were as expected. So it look like the PKI cert install has worked. However, I need it to work in Firefox. I'm a bit out of ideas. I did find this post:

https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/188914/certifying-authority-for-this-certificate-is-not-permitted-to-issue-a-certificat

But when I checked the Permitted name constraints of our intermediate CA, the expected domain was in there, so I assumed that wasn't the issue (if I've understood this correctly). Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Not secure website home accessible, but none of the pages under it. Unable to mark pages for not secure browsing. I marked the home site for not secure browsing OK. But no pages under it will open. There does not seem to be a way to tell the browser to ignore the security requirement for all pages in this website.

In windows 10 I have disabled ClearType antialiasing. Because of this, Firefox does not make antialiasing of some fonts: Firefox-Google Firefox-Wiki

On the same system, Chrome browser does antialiasing (grayscale): Chrome-google Chrome-wiki

How to force the Firefox to use antialiasing the same way as Chrome?

Firefox is 113.0.2

Is it possible for Mozilla to add a setting to Firefox that blocks .zip and .mov links from ever opening even if clicked on since a big part of the .zip links are being used to infect computers with malware

I have an intermittent problem with the back and forward buttons skipping pages. My home page is a blank page. From the home page I select the YouTube bookmark. I intend to right click on a video and select Open Link in New Window, but sometimes my touchpad doesn't see it as a right click and opens the video. When the video is done if I click on the back button, the browser takes me to the home page (blank) instead of the first YouTube page. If I then click on the forward button, YouTube loads a new page of videos to watch. There is no way to get back to the original first YouTube page which is annoying if there was something else I wanted to watch. I've had this happen with other sites as well. I originally thought this was a Firefox issue but now am wondering if my touchpad is interpreting the click on the back button as two clicks and causing it to go back two pages. Is this possible?

Hi

I would need some help

Example. Let's say I'm using FirefoxTranslations to translate an average-sized article, on Wikipedia, from German into English.

On the top left hand side of the screen, FirefoxTranslations tells me it has downloaded 17'140'835 bytes.

It always seems to be the same amount of bytes. This is downloaded for every single translation.

I thought that, once downloaded, the vocabulary would be stored, locally, on my computer. Permanently.

Doesn't look like it's happening.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any help

I'm trying to use multi-account containers to use twitter and other sites from accounts unique to the container.

For twitter, if I select a container, a new tab opens with the twitter login page in that container. If I try to login, another tab opens in that container, with the login page. So, I can never log in.

Is there a solution?

Is there any way to turn off the button "Open video in a new tab" that appears when you hover on an Instagram video? This button is blocking a button from an extension that I want to use.

As a professor at a large university in a college town, Google Scholar is a primary resource for me and thousands of others in this city. Doing Scholar searches on Firefox, I am often interrupted by the following Firefox message:

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? IP address: 50.24.52.109 Time: 2023-05-28T15:12:13Z URL: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cluster=11934070011569534288&hl=en&as_sdt=5,44&sciodt=0,44&as_ylo=2022&scioq=complex+adaptive+systems+%22concept+analysis%22

How can I stop that interruption from occurring? It does not occur on Chrome or Opera.

Thank you.

Hi I am losing all my windows and tabs within these windows when Firefox does updates.

I lost 3 lots of windows with tabs just before Christmas 2022 and about two months ago they all appeared again after an update, I was so happy, then about 1 hour ago I found another update was done today 28-5-2023 and now I have lost them all again. But another group of 2 windows including tabs that I lost about two & a half month ago turned up instead.

Are you able to help me find the disappeared windows/tabs and be able to keep these windows & tabs until I am finished with them, it is very annoying

Thank you Regards, Doug

When I open the Google "Choose an account" page, my account name doesn't show up above my email address. The problem ceases only temporarily when I clear the cache and the Google cookies. Any suggestions?

I see in the blog the roboform extension does not work with Firefox for many users. It errors that it only works in a browser. Why can't Roboform see or associate the connection when Firefox browser is in use. If it is in use, then Roboform should work. Is it a Firefox problem or a roboform problem? Between both of you surely someone can resolve this problem? It seems Roboform has washed their hands of the problem because they reply with a standard enable process that doesn't work for many people. I am on my 2nd new computer and still have the same problem. Again the error states it only works when the browser is in use. If the browser is in use, then what is the problem? thanks for any assistance you can provide.... I like Firefox and Roboform, it would be a blessing to have both working at the same time. A screenshot is attached for the error

I use Firefox in 4 different devices and only one shows the vulnerable passwords and all of them are synced and also all of them have the same settings.

Any idea as to what may be going on and how to solve it?

Thanks.

My gmail account keeps asking me to sign in every other 5 minutes. I didn't change a thing on my setting and up until yesterday evening the gmail still stayed signed in. I tried to add google.com, gmail ect. in Exception, but it didn't help. When I was trying to leave a comment on youtube, I had to sign in every single time.
