Since updating Firefox I can no longer connect to known good sites without getting "Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue".

This includes U.S. government sites! For instance, try connecting to https://covidtests.gov/ .

Why completely block access to the site? Why can't I make exceptions or tell Firefox to accept the risk and continue?

I use a MacBook Pro - Sequoia 15.0.1. Whenever I open Facebook on Firefox, the typing is so slow that I have often finished typing and the letters are printing on the page very slowly. It does not happen in Safari, or other browsers, just Firefox. Does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks. Kathie

I NEVER seen this before and wonder why this is occurring. When I put an address into the address line, MANY TIMES NOW I see a RIBBON before the address.

WHY is that ribbon there?

And HOW DO I GET RID OF IT?????????????????

Hi all.

I'm wondering if someone can help me with an issue I'm having with the Firefox autofill function. Which has just stopped working.

Absolutely a first world problem BUT its super irritating as now I have to manually input card details when I purchase anything online. And as I purchase materialS all the time for work it's v laborious...

I'm on a Macbook Air 2020 M1 and just updated it to OS 14.6.1.

Firefox def seems to remember my various card details as they pop up on the form fields; but then disappear as soon as I try and select the one I want to use?

Ive poked around in Settings but toggling on & off / resetting etc doesn't seem to make any difference.

Any advice gratefully welcomed ;)

For starters, I'm using Firefox 133.0 (64-bit), Windows 10, Logitech Trackman Marble Mouse (and I've used this mouse forever and a day)

In ONLY Google Messages for web, the vertical scrollbar is skinny and doesn't work well. I have to click above it and then it's hit or miss if it will scroll.

I have NO issues with any other website so far. In Chrome and Brave browsers I have no issues with Google Messages. It seems this is uniquely a Firefox with Google Messages issue.

I'm curious if there is a way to fix this. One time for grins, I right clicked the scroll bar and selected Inspect. I was able to figure out how to widen the scrollbar and that helped; however, it was only for that session. I did not see a way to "save" those changes.

PS: This mouse does NOT have a scroll wheel. Using a mouse WITH a scroll wheel works. But then again, with my Logitech marble mouse I depend on the scroll bars and have no issues with any other website. Thanks.

Hi,

I'm on OS Windows 11 and the latest version of FF (133). I also use NordVPN; I can access the web via Edge and Chrome with VPN, but for the last month, it doesn't work with FF. What could be the problem?

can't download app to let repair person to see my computer. This started after the last download!!!!!!!

I'm sorry I have FIREFOX it causes nothing but problems. No way to actually TALK to someone to get help.

Useless, as far as I'm concerned. Any chance someone can really help me??????

When is Firefox (across devices) going to bring "Tab Groups" in-built in 2025 as it is difficult to ditch Chrome esp., if it is related to work or research and similar tabs are opened up?

I have to rely on chrome and edge for same and both have not only brought it but improved it considerably. Also, chrome has not brought for mobile devices so grouping of tabs is more easy and simple but when I look at Firefox and Firefox based browsers, I see nothing of that thing present. The addon esp., Simple Tab Groups (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/simple-tab-groups/) is unreliable (see reviews).

If Firefox want us to use their browser and as default, they should see why we are using Chrome and Edge (latter, having vertical tabs in-built, also).

I hope 2025 is a year Firefox learns of how to retain users across devices. Currently Firefox is more from 2005.

Browser Choice Alliance wont be helpful if browsers like Firefox dont see users and their reviews and posts and issues reported. "https://browserchoicealliance.org/"

3 years post and still no work, and Firefox wants us to use their browser over Chrome and Edge. Why? And how?

I am increasingly unable to complete transactions using Firefox. I've been a Firefox users for years and I've never encountered as many problem as I am now. Websites give me error messages saying they are unable to confirm my log-in credentials, or something similar. I've contacted a number of vendors who say that they are noticing an increase in the number of customers saying the same thing. My only recourse has been to place the order on the phone OR use another browser. What's up? Thanks.

When on a web page or e-mail I regularly get a spinning multi colored ball which stops/interrupts the loading of the page. It will last for 3/4/5 seconds and then stop. What's up ??

im not very good with tech so ive probably clicked the wrong things, but i cant use my firefox at all anymore. only to search up 'google.com' lol. it opens on the homescreen, but when i want to search anything it always comes out on the screen in the image included. ive been using firefox for a year or so and never had issues. ive tried deleting and reinstalling, restarting my laptop, the whole deal. im on windows 10 but that shouldnt be the issue i imagine. ive asked some friends and they dont understand it either. id love to get some help otherwise i might have to go back to google chrome D:

Firefox is verified Broken! Whatever Firefox did with its last update is causing major problems. Spent hours with the internet provider and websites trying to figure out why could not access webpages and internet accounts.

Firefox is taking forever to load pages and often just times out or never actually loading the page. When I can get to a page, something is interfering with account access on webpages. Spent 3 hours with AT&T where they monitored trying to access my email account.

Could access with Edge, Chrome and Safari. However, Firefox is dead and will not allow me to access websites as pages do not load or interferes with account access.

Mozilla support needs to fix this issue ASAP or I will be forced to leave Firefox for good. I know I am not the only one having this issue! I was willing to put in the effort to verify if Firefox was actually broken or not!

My hotmail Email page stopped opening yesterday morning. I can open the Live.com page on my Android phone and Safari. I Don't like Safari, and I want to be on Firefox on my desktop.

Running Firefox 133.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 desktop

Periodically, Firefox will freeze and send the message "Firefox must be restarted to continue". After restarting, Firefox takes a long time to recover. This morning, it took nearly 5 minutes to recover.

Firefox has become exceedingly slow. I have used Firefox for the most part going back to the beginning save a 2 year stint when Mozilla fell behind and did not update the product in the early years after ver 4. However, the slowness of Firefox is so bad now that I may have to find or use another browser! It is literally that bad! This problem is recent as in the last 45 days as far as my individual needs. I have already gone through the troubleshooting list and made the modifications. That seemed to work for a day or two but the slowness of Firefox is progressively getting worse with each passing day.

The speed is like 3 minutes to 10 minutes when just trying to open a known and commonly used bookmark. Checked against Edge which came with Win 11 and Edge loads within a second or two. So, the problem is not hardware or internet connection. I have one of the fastest speeds on the planet with a true fiber optic connection as I am close to the backbone location in my city. We are talking 2.1gig down and 820MB up. Tested against two different speed tests. The problem is with Firefox specific. Mozilla needs to address this issue as it seems to be an ongoing problem across several IOS platforms.
