Running Firefox on MacOS. Browser will occasionally delete previous session when re-opening the browser. I do NOT have the browser set to clear history on closing. I have noticed that two of the incidents occurred when I accidentally closed the default window that opened when restarting the browser but I still had Firefox open.

Really frustrating when I lose all my open tabs with research I was conducting for work.

After I refreshed my Firefox browser the toolbar has changed. When I load a webpage, for instance AOL, Facebook, etc. there is no "home" icon on the toolbar, only the Firebox icon. When I click on that it takes me to a page for a download of the mobile app. In order to go back to any of the options showing on my Firefox home page, I have to completely come out of the browser and go back into it. How do I fix this? It is very annoying.

After updating to version 114 I keep having tabs crash. If I close Firefox and reopen it, the first few tabs are fine. After a bit, any tab I try to open gives me a "tab crashed" message. I can only load the default tab screen. If I try to go to Google or anywhere it crashes. I try to do a search and it crashes. I've had to use Chrome to be able to do anything.

Hi community, I need your help- Since I installed the last version I click click the top menu with the mouse: - when in a tab, I can't close it with "x" or right click - I can't click to "back" and "forward" buttons - I can't edit the web URL! only by opening a new tab and navigating to a term I want with the arrow keys!

What should I do?

Thank you <3

Before the latest update, I was able to open links (eg zoommtg:) but that quit working. I originally thought it was a problem with Ubuntu, but I tried in Chromium and it seemed to work fine. In addition to not being able to open links, I can't click on the "Show Folder" in the downloads dialog. This leads me to believe Firefox is having trouble communicating with the desktop.

  • OS Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
  • Firefox Version 114.0.1 (Snap)

Ideally, I'd like to find a log or some indicator as to why this is happening. It's quite annoying because I find myself doing a lot of copying and pasting of links and what not. Any help would be appreciated.

Pages keep crashing on opening (reinstall, refresh, clean install, safe mode all affected)

Dear Team,

I'm using version 114.0 (64 bits) with Eset Internet Security 16.1.14.0 installed on a Windows 10 machine 22H2 Build 19045.2965. I have refreshed Firefox from previous version yesterday (06/06/2023) (it asked me to restart the browser). Since then I cannot load any page (not even the about:crashes or settings or passwords, or any website). All pages keep on crashing, the reports are not generated nor sent to support. I have tried to locate the crash reports under APPDATA, but none being generated. I also tried to disable my anti-virus software thinking it may cause an issue, but still no luck. The same happens in Safe mode as well. Tried clean install as well, but again the same thing happens.

Kindly look into it!

Best regards,

Sandor

My university uses Google Workspace, and I rely on Google Calendar to keep me organized. Starting on June 9, Google Calendar stopped working for me. I can open Google Calendar in a new tab using Firefox, but when I try to create a new event or edit an existing event, the page stalls out. When I click on the x in the tab, Firefox asks me if I really want to leave the page and I say "yes."

The workaround that I am using at this time is to create new events and edit existing events in Google Chrome instead of Firefox.

The problem was happening before my copy of Firefox updated to 114.0.1, and it is still happening.

I was browsing and commenting on a YouTube video, when my my typing wasn't showing up for several seconds after I typed it...like 20-30 seconds. I checked Windows Task Master and 10 instances of firefox were open (I was only using one tab) and they were using 68% of my CPU and 90% of my available memory, basically locking up my computer. I tried closing it and reopening it, but the same thing happened. I had to go to another browser. I remember this happening in the past, and I had to move to another browser permanently. I would much rather stay with Firefox if you can prevent this from happening.

thanks.

Ipsos Media link app seems to cause issues with Firefox - error messages, constantly wanting to load extension already loaded. Have repeated contacted Ipsos and they say no issue their end so can I just put up with it - but it is constantly being a nuisance and if I try to use Firefox in troubleshoot mode the error message still comes up bottom right of the screen saying there is an issue with Firefox - but there isn’t. I go through the extension addition - downloads 0 bytes but going through the process seems to satisfy the app! Any ideas helpful.

[SOLVED] A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time.

Ive had this issue a couple times now, the method that has worked for me in the past used to be the one that was detailed in this forum post: https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1254772

When using the command listed in the solution: /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -P, it used to be that there would be two profiles listed in the dialogue box that opens, one corrupted profile and one normal profile, and deleting the corrupted profile would fix it. Now, it just shows one profile "default-release". Other forum posts and troubleshooting stuff online say to force quit through the mac menu, this doesn't work, and if i can avoid it, i would like to not fully re-install Firefox, i have all my passwords saved on there, and I'm not signed in with my Firefox account on this device.

Screenshot provided is of the dialogue box that comes up after running /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -P

I am on an M1 Macbook Pro, 8GB ram, running macOS Monterey version 12.2

Edit - solved after a restart

After a trip on which I used several other internet connections, my Firefox has become very unstable. It is prompting me to shut down Firefox in order to open the next window. It is also flickering on the refresh icon. It is also blocking adult content. I have refreshed the Firefox browser but that changed nothing. I am not sure how to troubleshoot to look specifically at these problems. I am fearful of trying to delete and reinstall this program as I do not use any other online browsers and do not want to install them. Can this be troubleshooted remotely without risking malware?
