Firefox Форум

dear sir/madam

                         While trying to login to a website for which i have saved my username and password, firefox only autofills password, that too when clicked on the password field, it doesn't fill username in the username field.

Hello,

Amazon Prime no longer saves my place in TV series I'm watching. If I was 15 minutes in on episode 9 of something, when I came back it would still be in the same place, even months later. Now it doesn't do that anymore, even if I come back a few minutes later.

Amazon says Amazon Prime does not work very well on Firefox, and my issue does work fine on the other browsers, but I don't want to use them if I can avoid it. Firefox works fine for Hulu and Netflix and the others. I don't have any other issues with Firefox other than this one.

Does anyone know anything about this and possibly how to make it work like it used to?

Thank you.

Firefox v. 118.0.1 64 bit Windows 11 Pro

When Firefox closes by itself (crashes) or becomes unresponsive and I manually close it via Task Manager afterwards when I click on Firefox Desktop icon or Firefox taskbar icon Firefox opens but only at the Taskbar and not full Desktop screen.

See posted image.

The only fix is by deleting the Profile folder in Mozilla AppData hidden folder and replacing it with a restored copy from a System Backup file or a copy of a previous Mozilla Folder with Profiles Folder in it.

Once I replace the current Firefox Profile folder Firefox starts working normally again and starting full screen on my Windows Desktop.

This has been happening the last couple of Firefox versions and with the latest version installed.

Seems to be some sort of conflict with Windows 11 Pro or possibly a Windows security issue.

Thanks in advance

NOTE: I tried pressing Ctrl or Windows key + Arrow Keys to see if possibly it was hidden by Windows. Sometimes if I press Ctrl or Windows Key + and Arrow key the hidden app would show up. But this happens very rarely.

I don't know - these are valid sites - I've used them as recently as Friday. I've checked the spelling etc. I did some cache-cleaning two weeks ago but they've worked since then. Thanks. Jerry

three weeks ago the Babbel playback gave me all shortened responses. Like I would hear "respon" instead of response. I switched over to Microsoft Edge. After first bad response all subsequent responses were normal--fully sounded.

I've used FF for coming up to 15 years, i don't know if it's related to the update but potentially so - videos (notably youtube e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIzgSwgvmtw just don't seem to play right now).

The video will play for 0.5s, and then freeze whilst the loading circle revolves, but the audio continues. Seeking on the video causes same isse. Randomly sometimes it works.

Have tried - Disabling extensions - Safe mode - Reset profile - Updated all drivers and windows - Restarted FF and machine - Updating some items found here (https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/wwnxtu/youtube_videos_freezing_since_updating_to_1040/) - Disabled hardware and combinations of above

Unsure what to do here, seems to work okay in other browsers, been happening for a few weeks so far. Netflix has similar but not as bad, youtube seems biggest offender but maybe because i use it the most

On MacOS Sonoma, ctrl+cmd+space opens a pop up for special characters. It was working fine until last week. Now it works everywhere on my computer, except for Firefox. What gives? Can you guys fix that, please?

My Firefox 118.0.1 on Win 10 (all current updates) is creating literally thousands of profile files daily. For example, at this moment there are 3957 profile files with names like

6D89348819C8881868053197CA0754F36784B4BFSF

in the directory C:\Users\(user)\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ywlawdlc.default-release-2\cache2\entries

There are also thousands of other profile files in folders from previous dates.

What is the purpose of this many profile files, and how do I stop their creation in such quantities?

Thanks Dave

When I update my website, I can't get it to refresh/reload on Firefox. It reloads on other browsers. Other websites reload on Firefox when I click on the reload/refresh symbol, just this one website won't refresh.

Flipp flyer desktop app ceased to function after last update - page opens without flyer data - endless spinning circles only - will not load other Flipp pages such as sign-in etc, NO error messages from Firefox. Desktop app works in Edge.

Since a couple of weeks Youtube videos are played very badly - jammed and not smooth at all. This only happens in firefox, in chrome everything runs fine. I have the latest firefox version, I tried modifying hardware acceleration settings back and forth, nothing helps. Running on Windows 11.

If I try to use Messenger, I get an error message that I am not connected to the internet. This is just within the last 24 hours, but some are saying it's been doing that since the last update. Is there a setting that needs to be changed?

Mouse is Logitech MX Master 3 for business. When I scroll on Maps to zoom out or in, it zooms all the way out or in, even when I just do one "scroll click". Scrolling up and down works fine on other websites. Using the scroll wheel for zoom in Google Maps in other browsers (latest versions of Google Chrome, MS Edge, Brave) works as expected/fine, there it only zooms out/in one level.

It's not a new issue, it's been here for a long time, I just haven't bothered doing anything about it.

I have found another old thread about the same issue and the suggestion was to disable hardware accelleration. I tried that and it made the scrolling worse, but same thing happens, just slower and with choppiness. I have tried running troubleshooting mode. Still the same thing.

why am i getting this message? " This network is blocked due to unaddressed abuse complaints about malicious behavior. This page checks to see if it's really a human sending the requests and not a robot coming from this network. " please fix this is very annoying!!

When copying text from a website in one Firefox window, and pasting in a separate Fire Fox window, formatting issues occur

• Running on Windows 10
• Firefox, windows/tabs not in container
• Pasting text from Coursera to Notion.so fails to start text on current line and properly format.
• Works on Microsoft Edge with no issue, so problem is isolated to Firefox

Attaching images for clarification and comparison. (sorry for quality, quick MS.paint job)

• after further testing, it appears that copying from Coursera in Firefox to Microsoft Edge also has the same formatting issue, so it seems to be a compatibility situation between Firefox copying from Coursera specifically, and not an issue with pasting to Notion.so

• appreciate the fact that there are multiple third party factors at play, but the issue is killing my productivity so any help is appreciated!

Hi,

My Firefox keeps crashing every time I copy and past something from Excel and try to go to Firefox, it immediately goes gray and the only option that works is restarting it and waiting does nothing (which means I constantly relog back into to all of my accounts that I am using for job searches). It has been many weeks since this started happening and auto updates have not corrected anything. I've submitted the crash reports just now. Let me know what can fix this. Thanks!

Hi, I am running Windows 10 on PC and my Firefox browser keeps crashing for no apparent reason. I only had a translate extension but since turning that off it still does it. Yesterday (02/10/2023 - 23:45) I got an error pop up "minidump-analyser.exe - Application Error. The exception Breakpoint. A breakpoint has been reached. (0x80000003) occured in the application at location 0x00007FFE7200276E. Click OK to terminate this program." Today (03/10/2023 16:06) after less than an hour from switch on I got another error pop up "SwUSB.exe - System Error. A new guard page for the stack cannot be created." I thought I was reasonably tech savvy but I'm am baffled by this. Please can anyone help?

yesterday, when i logged into my icloud.com to use my email, my screen became dominated by a thing that said something about protecting my privacy or email or what ever. there were two options, and I tried both of them, but that was all it would do. I never was able to get rid of that screen or use my email. I consequently logged into google chrome and then had no trouble at all with my icloud.com account.

The newest version reloads and resets nearly every time computer restarts over the past couple weeks. Same thing today, however, now I cannot load anything. I can get to settings, etc but it will not load websites - no error code, just keeps "thinking"

I am able to use Chrome, so it is not an internet/router issue.

Hello !! I notices a strange behavior of Firefox in my notification area of MacBook Air M1 running on macOS Sonoma 14.0. Many times when I am using firefox or minimizing it, it is showing "Firefox is capturing your screen" that can also be seen in attached image. I am not using any type of screen recording or screenshot too in any way neither having any plugin or 3rd party integration in browser nor any proxies. Sometime it also using the Mic and giving symbol of Mic use for few seconds. What's happening ? Can you please look into it.
