I'm using 66.0, and I received an update this morning. I'm on the Paypal website looking at the Summary. I can go to the Paypal funds page and the Paypal credit page, which are both internal to Paypal. However, I am unable to go the Paypal Mastercard, which should take me to a third-party bank, Synchrony. I get an error message "Looks like this action is not supported. Please return and report this error so that we can support it in the future. (invalid client_id or redirect_uri)". I've restarted Firefox in Safe Mode, but no dice. I've refreshed Firefox, no dice. Any ideas? Third-party cookies? It worked up until today. Also, the PayPal site works just fine on Safari.

Did you report this to their support?

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
