Seems I've noticed an issue with playing of YouTube videos the last few days. It seems that either the video(s) is slower to load and/or is slower to play. While it's not terribly slower in human time it's slower than normal in computer time. I'm not having this problem in Chrome. Cookies and cache are cleaned multiple times a day. So, I'm a little stumped as to why I'm having this issue. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi,

I have added the google maps and google.com as exceptions in the security tabs. Works in Chrome. Re started , cleared cache etc. On mac opened location to share so all green lights just can't add directions to google calendar in Firefox only...used to work.

Thanks

Earlier I had a problem with Facebook. When I clicked on the Firefox icon on the task bar Facebook would open to my home page. Then, out of the blue, this afternoon, when I open Facebook, a small page would show up then Facebook would load. When I would close FB (x in upper right corner), that mysterious page of FB was there. Had to close it by clicking on the X in the upper right corner. Tried several things but could not get it to go away. So, I uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox. Got everything reinstalled. Now,when I click on the Firfox icon on the task bar, what comes up is the Facebook log-in page where I have to enter ID/password. Before, Facebook would open automatically. Any idea why this is happening and how do I get FB to open automatically like before? Thanks

If I use the close window shortcut (ctrl+shift+w) in Firefox it fails to close the window and treats every action I try to take as if the shift and ctrl keys were held down. For example, clicking on a tab will select it as if I were trying to move it as a group, rather than switching to it. Or, pressing only the T key will reopen closed tabs as if I had pressed ctrl+shift+T. This behavior will persist in Firefox until I close out of it completely and reopen. This does not occur when any other application is focused and ctrl+shift+w is pressed, and the effects are isolated to Firefox only when it does occur. Due to this, I do not believe that it is a hardware issue, eg. my keys just getting stuck. I haven't seen anything online that even vaguely resembles this issue. Any solution would be appreciated, even if it is disabling the ctrl+shift+w shortcut, as I keep pressing it out of habit and needing to close and reopen all of my tabs.

Please tell me why this happens daily. I cannot access my laptop after a break at 10:00 am..... for some reason, Firefox freezes, only thing that will work is the Chrome browser.

Firefox will not load any websites, it’s like there is some kind of connection issue. My network is fine, other browsers work fine, but Firefox seems to be ‘stuck’. I tried some of the recommendations like the ipv6 config, and DNS prefetching. No viruses came up on scans. I am using version 137.0.2 On MacOS 10.15.7. I also think the problem might be that it seems to be constantly checking for updates and there is no way to stop it. I deselected the ‘automatically install updates’ option, but it’s still spinning as it checks for updates and there appears to be no way to stop it.

I reported a problem here about having an inability to login to Freecycle but had no trouble when using Chrome. I now have a problem with Waitrose.com. I tried to enter the weekend competition but after entering all the data there appeared a message saying something had gone wrong and to try agian later. This I did but the same thing happened. Fortified by my experience using Chrome I tried using it to enter and did so without any problem. I tried turning off enhanced tracking but this had no effect

Hello, I’m experiencing an issue where my website https://smartstartkids.com.ua doesn’t load at all in Firefox. When I try to open it, nothing happens or I get a message like “The connection was reset” or “Network error”.

The strange thing is that it works perfectly in Chrome and Microsoft Edge on the same devices and network.

Here’s what I’ve already tried: • Cleared Firefox cache and cookies • Created a new Firefox profile using firefox.exe -P • Disabled and fully uninstalled ESET antivirus • Turned off Windows Firewall • Reset DNS and Winsock via Command Prompt (ipconfig /flushdns, netsh winsock reset) • Checked proxy settings (set to “No proxy”) • Tried with HTTP3 disabled (network.http.http3.enabled = false) • Tried from two different PCs and networks — same result • The certificate shown is from “Sectigo”, not ESET, so it seems to be correct now

Still, Firefox is the only browser where this specific site doesn’t load. I’d appreciate any ideas or help!

Thank you!
