For about 2 weeks now, the audio volume on youtube videos fluctuates up and down. The volume starts off low when a person starts to talk. For example, when the person in the video starts to talk, their voice volume is very low then within a second or two, the volume rises to normal as they talk. When they finish a sentence and start a new one (when there is a short pause in the audio) their voice is again at a very low volume, rising to normal in a second or two. This repeats as they speak throughout the entire video. This is not specific to any youtube video or youtube channel, it happens on all youtube videos. I have tried updating all audio drivers in Windows 11 - no improvement. I have tried rebooting the computer - no improvement Firefox is up to date, version 133.0 I have tried watching the same videos using Chrome and I do not have this problem. Any help correcting this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Brad

Hi,

I switched Windows from 10 to 11, reinstalled Firefox and logged in into my Sync account. But none of the bookmarks are importing - I've tried other mail that might be used, but it prompts me to create a new password, so I'm pretty sure I got the right e-mail. How can I check what is stored for my account and how to restore the bookmarks? I forgot to export them to HTML before formatting my C: drive...

bsky.app cookie continues to be loaded on computer even after I continually delete it, privacy set to strict and blocked under "managed exceptions, why is it being reloaded when I don't access the site. None of the sites I access are linked to it, only visited once and if this alternative to x continues to set cookies, how can I permanently block it, thought the exceptions list was supposed to keep blocking it. So far it's come back three times, I'll screenshot it next time and attach.

For the past few weeks when I click into the URL address bar, I get a popup window covering the entire Firefox window (see screenshot). This is really annoying, as I have to escape out of this to get back to the window. It makes more sense just to place the cursor in the URL. Is there a way to disable this? Or is this a bug? Or is it a problem in my installation? I'm running Firefox 133.0 (64-bit). Thank you.

Been using Firefox since the 90s and been on Mac since 2000s. This problem has been happening for about a year, throughout three macbooks (my old one, a temp one, and my new one) and multiple Firefox updates. I'm always updated and always clear cookies daily.

The failure to move bookmarks I can overcome by rebooting Firefox with a Forced Quit. If I only have to do this every few weeks, then no biggy reinserting all my passwords for all the different sites I use (and no, I don't want to use password managers, I don't trust them)

Today it happened within hours of Force Quitting Firefox, this is too much!!!

The only reason I didn't report this problem earlier is I simply expected an eventual newer version of Firefox to fix this bug.

Firefox 133.0

Normal behaviour: click-drag bookmark within bookmark menu pull-down to position where I want bookmark Failure behaviour: click-drag fails to move bookmark, until I reboot Firefox, then it works again

Firefox Screenshots on Mac no longer upload to Sugarsync

Firefox has an excellent built-in screenshot feature that allows users to take full page screenshots of web pages. I am a Mac user. I use Sugarsync cloud service to keep my Mac Studio desktop (OS 12.6.3 Monterey) and Macbook Air (OS 13.3 Ventura) laptop in sync. I am running Firefox 133.0.

I have noticed that Firefox .png screenshots have not been uploading properly to Sugarsync for the last 6 months or so. In Finder a green tick appears which indicates that a file has been properly uploaded to SugarSync but when I go to the Sugarsync app I can see the following error message for such files "Waiting on upload from Mac Studio". This means that screenshots I take on my desktop do not go across to my laptop and vice versa.

I spoke to the very helpful tech support (Luis M, senior tech support) at Sugarsync today and he and his colleague were able to figure out that the problem has to do with the attributes of the saved .png files.

I will outline the issue in detail:

On a Mac you can examine the attributes of a file by doing the following: - right click on the folder in which your file is located and click "new terminal at folder". This opens a new terminal window - type the following: xattr -l and then drag and drop the file name from finder next to the "xattr -l" and then insert a space, a dot and a forward slash and press enter, i.e. myusername@NameOfMyComputer Foldername % xattr -l full path and file name ./

For example if I take a screenshot of the following URL: https://www.mlb.com/ and I save the screenshot in a folder I have named "Firefox Screenshots" it saves as as "Screenshot 2024-12-07 at 14-48-02 MLB.com The Official Site of Major League Baseball" on my computer. I can examine it's attributes in terminal using the steps outlined above:

myusername@NameOfMyComputer Firefox Screenshots % xattr -l /Users/myusername/Firefox\ Screenshots/Screenshot\ 2024-12-07\ at\ 14-46-28\ The\ New\ York\ Times\ -\ Breaking\ News\ US\ News\ World\ News\ and\ Videos.png ./

When I click enter it generates a massive amount of information that looks like this: /Users/myusername/Firefox Screenshots/Screenshot 2024-12-07 at 14-46-28 The New York Times - Breaking News US News World News and Videos.png: com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms: bplist00?_ /Users/myusername/Firefox Screenshots/Screenshot 2024-12-07 at 14-46-28 The New York Times - Breaking News US News World News and Videos.png: com.apple.quarantine: 0081;6753c517;Firefox;0F67116D-C970-45CB-A578-65EAFC93F6DD myusername@NameOfMyComputer Firefox Screenshots % xattr -l /Users/myusername/Firefox\ Screenshots/Screenshot\ 2024-12-07\ at\ 14-48-02\ MLB.com\ The\ Official\ Site\ of\ Major\ League\ Baseball.png ./ /Users/myusername/Firefox Screenshots/Screenshot 2024-12-07 at 14-48-02 MLB.com The Official Site of Major League Baseball.png: com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms: bplist00?_Q?^data:image/png;base64,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 etc etc etc

The total output is over 19 million characters long due to the long alphabet soup that is generated. And this why Sugarsync is unable to properly upload the file.

You can retrospectively fix folders that contain .png files that will not properly upload to Sugarsync by right clicking on a folder, selecting "new terminal at folder" and typing the following: xattr -d -r com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms ./

This fixes the attributes and the .png screenshots files immediately start to upload to Sugarsync. When you examine the attributes of the file again it shows the following:

/Users/myusername/Firefox Screenshots/Screenshot 2024-12-07 at 14-48-02 MLB.com The Official Site of Major League Baseball.png: com.apple.quarantine: 0081;6753c575;Firefox;D5072DFA-9EE8-4EF1-9658-86263462F1CD.

Could the Firefox developers please look at this issue and liaise with Sugarsync?

Many thanks in advance.

I tried to remap the Tools > Page Info shortcut from Cmd + I to Ctrl + Opt + Cmd + I in macOS keyboard settings, however, despite the keyboard shortcut listed beside Page Info appearing to change, "Cmd + I" still brings up Page Info.

I read on another [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1287036] post that the Shortkeys extension might help but the developer info page states that default keyboard shortcuts cannot be modified with the extension.

Creating an autoconfig file was also suggested [https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questi.../1381773 elsewhere, but I don't seem to have a defaults/pref directory in Contents/Resources inside Firefox.app. A guide on what to put in these files to change the default keyboard shortcut for Page Info would also be appreciated.

Hello,

I'm trying to update to firefox version 133.0. My O.S. is Ubuntu 20.04. I've untarred the tarball to ~/firefox/firefox-133.0/.

If I startup the new firefox, I receive the following error message: "libxul.so, undefined symbol: gdk_window_show_menu".

I also tried firefox version 120.0, except the result was the same.

How can I fix this?
