Firefox Форум

Pubmed Central (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/) is a commonly used website for literature reading in life sicences research. I found that it takes a lot of time to load the PMC web page, and even worse to access an aricle in it, always more than 10 seconds (for example, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1234567/). These pages access smoothly in other browsers on my computer (MacBook Pro with M1, macOS Sonoma 14.0). I've tried the troubleshoot mode, and clearing all the cookies and cache, but it just doesn't work.

Hoping to get some useful feedback on this!

I have used Firefox since forever, was a Netscape user in the past

But for about 3 months Firefox simply is no good anymore\

It is more and more sites I can not access with Firefox and have to use Edge instead.

Last example, just now

https://www.cibc.com/en/journeys/new-to-canada.html

See screens attached

This is just one example, many other sites simply do not open, or open properly, in Firefox

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

Thank you

This plugin crashes on Firefox only after last update. It was fine prior to the 10.16.23 update. Ive tried turning off and back on, clearing cache and cookies and nothing helps. Is anyone else having this issue?

When I sign in to a website I check the box saying 'remember this computer' but FF doesn't seem to allow this. I have to go thru the security login every single time, like when signing in to a google account. It works on Chrome but not FF.

This may be related: sometimes the page displayed on FF doesn't function as it should. Example: I was using Quickbooks online and when I clicked the HELP button nothing happened. I thought it was an Intuit problem until I used Chrome and found the HELP button worked.

thanks

My firefox browser freezes completely and stops PC from working. Current remedy is to use another browser having switched off and re-booted PC. Any thoughts as this has started happening frollowing update to version 118

Hi, I seem to have an issue with Firefox rendering pages with artifacts. I use Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon, video adapter is Intel HD 4000. Currently running 6.2 kernel, tried to fall back to 5.15 which didn't change anything. Attached the examples, the first 2 are screenshots of the about:support page, the issue appear there consistently but not necessarily at the same place. I've tried to open Firefox in the Troubleshooting mode, and the artifact appeared right in the dialog asking for restart! (see pic. 3) Enabling software WebRender (gfx.webrender.software=true) fixes the issue.

about:support page:

 when HW compositing is on: https://termbin.com/7ith
 when SW compositing is on: https://termbin.com/rlme

I have tested memory with memtest86+ overnight with no errors, CPU has been tested by Prime95 for 3-4 hours, the iGPU seems to be working fine either in Unigine Heaven, GpuTest and glmark tests. Is there a way to fix the issue other than disabling HW compositing?

Hi all,

I thought I'd fixed this problem by Refreshing Firefox, and it did work for a day or two, and now it doesn't work properly again.

The problem: Some pages, e.g. startpage.com, and some add-ons, e.g. Privacy Badger and Simple Tab Groups, show blank when they are loaded. E.g. When I go to startpage.com the page is blank. When I click on the Privacy Badger icon it is blank, when I click on the STG icon it shows the spinning sign but never loads. If I go into the Options page for STG it is blank. Whatsapp Web doesn't load, it stays stuck on the grey loading screen. I have this kind of behaviour with lots of sites and other addons.

The problems exist in Troubleshooting mode but not in Private Browsing or another profile. Closing all tabs and loading a clean window doesn't change anything. I've tried clearing ALL cookies, cache, site settings, active logins and offline data, and that doesn't fix the problem.

Originally, before the refresh, as well as the blank pages Firefox was also incredibly slow at loading any tab. All of these problems seemed to start happening after 118.0.1 update. I've just installed 118.0.2 and the problems persist.

I tried everything on these pages: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/quick-fixes-if-your-firefox-slows-down https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-or-cpu-resources

I discovered the error 500 problem when I tried to login here to get help! I've had to log in using Chrome :(

I could refresh again, but that's already proven to only be a temporary fix. There's clearly some problem that still persists across refreshes. Could it be tab related? Like I said, I've tried closing all tabs and loading a clean window and the problems persist.

All helpful suggestions welcome :)

I've been using Firefox for years without any problem and some weeks ago I started noticing that when I'm on Linux, Firefox freezes when loading some websites (but it does not always do). I think it usually happens when my laptop uses the dedicated GPU (but I'd say that not exclusively).

I tried checking with Troubleshoot Mode to see if it happened too and unfortunately Firefox was also freezing randomly sometimes.

This is not something caused by a corrupted installation as using another user profile solves the problem. There's also no logs at about:crash. When it happens, the only thing I can do is kill the process. It's not like everything freezes but when certain website keeps loading I notice that the mouse icon does not get updated when hovering buttons and if I go to another tab and search or try to load another website, it simply does not work, it takes some seconds and then I just see a spinning wheel (from Firefox itself, not the website)

Could it be caused by any about:config changes? I mean I have changed a lot of things there following Arkenfox's user.js but had no trouble until some weeks ago. I'll try disabling privacy.resistFingerprinting. Thanks in advance

Firefox cannot play IMDB video. It shows: This video file cannot be played error code 224002 Youtube and other video contents are working fine but IMDB. Chrome and other browsers are playing IMDB video without any issue. Why Firefox does not? Is there anyone who knows how could I solve this problem?

Thank you!

Dear Community,

I try to open "weverse.io" but it doesn´t work... I can open weverse.io/account, m.weverse.io/bts/artistpedia and weverseshop.io/ but not the official website. And I don´t know what else to do. I´ve uninstalled Firefox and downloaded it again, i´ve deleted cookies, cache, DNS cache and other delateable things, checked my security system and deactivated ghostery... I´ve got the same problem with edge and chrome. The browser from Avira works... I don´t understand why it doesn´t work with firefox anymore. Edge tells me "Hmmm...this website is not available right now. The connection appears to have been disconnected from weverse.io." Maybe that´s helpfull... Does anybody have an idea what I can do?

Thank you :)

When I try to watch a movie (on website flixhq.to) it gives me error code 232011 and then i change the server my subtitles don't work. I tried different websites but the same thing happens. I've done all the troubleshoot methods possible. I only have this problem on my laptop, when i use this website on my phone it works properly. I've never had a problem with this website before ,this all started beginning of this month. Someone please help me fix this!

Yep sound strange but as I am scrolling a button disappears (aka a graphic css component?) and sometimes boxes show on clicks or hovers.

Not doing it with 2 other browsers, I am sure its doing since last upgrade for last few weeks. Turned off graphic acceleration.

The image shows the button, as I scroll it appears and disappears - if I stop on a certain place it has gone.

Boxes sometimes light, or dark ...

I have run a check on graphics card, no issues I can see with my gpu/cpu I can see.

My desktop is interrupted by Foxfire pop ups from an on line employment service. I want to uninstall their messages/ads, but can't even find the Foxfire menu page. I am not computer literate and am unable to follow instructions that don't seem to work! Please do not write in tech talk!

A few hours ago, I had a problem logging in to pCloud. I didn't have any problems until recently, but now I get the following message: Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to my.pcloud.com.

    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

How do I resolve this situation and continue using pCload through Firefox?

Thanks, Alex

Up through Monday, 10-16-2023, I could play Amazon Prime Videos. As of Tuesday, 10-17, I no longer can. I can do this on other browsers, e.g. Chrome and Safari. Can this be fixed or do I need to stop using Firefox?

Recently, when I try to play video clips, or click on "Live Updates" on CNN.com, the videos will not play (no play icon), and when clicking on "live Updates, the screen flashes to that page but then goes blank. Is this a bug in the recent updates to Firefox, or is something going on with CNN? This is the only site that I'm experiencing this with. Thank you in advance. Cheers.
