Firefox Community Forum

I have recently begun to have hard 'hangs' while attempting to view a video on a site I'm already connected to. I've tried to overcome these hangs, but they continue to happen even after firefox has been in use for a short time. I have to restart my computer, since the hang is locking up all control input.

I am unable to sign in to my yahoo mail account. It gives me a fault that "something went wrong, please try another device". I can use brave as my browser and sign in with no problem but not with firefox. Any idea why?

Since update yesterday, new tab is empty. Whatever I do, open new tab, open new window, go to `about:newtab` manually, it does not load anything. The view is totally blank. I can navigate to other pages fine as it should though. Only New Tab view is broken. Diagnostic mode does not work. I don't have plugins that would affect New Tab anyways.

After many years of using Firefox and then trying other browsers I decided to stick with Firefox now, and immediately I encounter a persistent flaw.

Mainly I browse on chess.com, I mention this because there the thing occurs and I can imagine it is quite a 'complicated' website. Stick with me. I administrate clubs and play chess there so open pages regularly, in new tabs, still generally only three simultaneously.

Every 1 in 5 times the page just gets stuck loading. Only parts appear and the little refresh icon up there doesn't show because the X stays (the one to stop loading the page). This is quite annoying. Simply by refreshing it immediately loads properly. But it is ridiculous to keep having to press F5 every couple of minutes before one can get on. As I also used Beta channel on my win11 machine I figured maybe it's that but after several updates it persisted. Now I am using the Normal channel and a Linux Mint OS and exactly the same keeps happening. I have tried a dozen remedies. Like adding an exception to the enhanced tracking in Firefox and several others and nothing fixed this. Does anyone knows how this happens?

And will Mozilla fix this? Or is it completely at the bottom of priorities because it is site specific?

Thanks for any replies (OS most recent Linux Mint Cinnamon. browser version mint-001 1.0 firefox 147.2) (Happened on Windows 11, Firefox Beta as well)

Recently I’ve had a few Firefox problems on my W11 desktop. Sometimes when I try to load a website, nothing appears until several seconds (30 or more) have passed. During that time, the bottom of the screen shows the message Transferring data. Then, after that long wait, very often only a top piece (1/3 to ½) of the page appears. If I wait long enough (a minute or two), the rest of the page appears. Another problem is illustrated in the two images. When I go to AARP, I get the first image. T then press the Reload button and the second image appears. This problem is fairly recent. Previously, the first image always loaded with not problem. Any ideas of what’s happening and, even more importantly, how it can be fixed? Thanks.

I have a custom theme enabled on my browser. Every time I log into Firefox on a shared university computer my theme is turned off for that desktop aswell as my personal laptop. I have to manually enable it on my personal devises again each time after using school computers. Is there a way to prevent this?

I have Norton 360. I just reinstalled a brother printer and now I get the "Your browser is being managed by your organization". While I sync with my laptop, as others have said, I'm not an organization. There is an Enterprise policy .

Active Policy Name Policy Value ExtensionSettings {"firefoxhpsureclicksecurebrowsing@bromium.com":{"installation_mode":"blocked"},"firefoxhpwolfsecurityextension@bromium.com":{"install_url":"https://addons.bromium-online.com/wsx.xpi","installation_mode":"normal_installed"}}

I can't store or edit any bookmarks. How do I correct this? I need answers in very simple terms as I am very much a layman with computers. Thank You!

Firefox is not allowing me to reach links to medical portal websites to set up accounts saying they can't reach the site and perhaps a firewall is blocking it. I have other accounts on this same portal... HELP please.
