we have 2 imacs here:

imac A just had OS catalina installed and firefox is shown as up to date running v 115.15. However, while it loads the apple tv website the site remains unresponsive to input.

imac B is runnning OS Sonoma and firefox is shown as up to date running v 130.01. There is no problem with the apple tv site, which responds to input.

So: why can't I update firefox to the latest version on imac A and why is the apple tv website unresponsive when it works on imac B running an older OS?

macOS Catalina is 10.15.7 which meets the minimum requirement of macOS 10.15 and later for Firefox 116.0 and later. Perhaps you were using macOS 10.12, 10.13, 10.14 before upgrading to macOS 10.15.7 as to why you are using the Firefox 115.15.0esr.

You can download the latest Firefox 130.0.1 Release for macOS at https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/desktop-release/osx/ as just pick your language and then download the dmg.

I believe firefox on computer A was installed using OS 10.14, so will try that. Are settings, bookmarks etc automatically imported into the latest firefox?

Your settings like bookmarks, password, extensions etc are in a Profile in a separate place and not in the Firefox folder. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data
