What is the problem?

When I try to sign in to Yahoo I am sent to a Google sign in. I tried that and only got gmail and not my yahoo mail. I can sign in fine when I use Firefox private browsing and Edge. Why is Google involved with Yahoo mail?

When signing in to online Shaw Webmail, message says 'Security Check Failed. Clear your browser cache and retry'. Screenshot attached. Have done so in "Clear browsing and data history", (as per Firefox guidelines) multiple times, for all History and cache. Did not resolve issue. Contacted Shaw Support; they instructed to try logging in with Chrome browser. Worked fine. Issue appears to be strictly with Firefox Browser (on multiple devices). I prefer Firefox over Chrome. Any advice greatly appreciated.

when playing my game the program keeps stopping and starting. Every 7 to 9 seconds while playing my game I get kicked to the task bar and it stops responding for a few seconds and when I click to put it back on my screen and again 7 or 9 seconds I have to repeat the same thing. Bottom line is the gaming program keeps starting and stopping for a few second. This is the only program doing this. This started doing this on June 28 2025 after a new Firefox update. I played this same game on Google and it worked just fine.

Hello,

I'm facing an issue where my microphone does not work in Google Meet when using Firefox, even though I’ve granted all necessary permissions. This problem is specific to Firefox, as the microphone works perfectly fine in Google Chrome.

I prefer using Firefox because of its convenient screenshot features, but this microphone issue has caused major inconvenience during important meetings.

Kindly help me resolve this issue.

Thank you.

The errors I get are kind of all over the place though. I've completely deleted and reinstalled Firefox, and removed all extensions too.

It will loop to the login screen over and over, or I get the message 'An error has happened, try again later'...

I used the browser console and didn't get anything that seemed usable. I use Strava nearly every day so I'm having to use Safari. And this issue is on all of the mac and Windows systems I use. 'Troubleshooting Mode' didn't work either.

Help!

Not sure if this is a silly question to ask, but I've noticed that when I use browser Instagram on Firefox it displays emoticons as emojis. For example if I type "<3" (less than 3) it'll display a heart emoji. It doesn't actually convert it In the message though, my friends say it sends what I type.

I'm just wondering why this is happening and how to stop it, I've checked settings for everything and cannot find anything about it. Thank you in advance.

Hi there,

We are using the pigiarniq font family as the web font for a website, it's rendering it correctly in Chrome, MS edge and Safari, but it's rendering differently in firefox browser. There are wide spacings between words if you compare it in other browsers.

I have attached the screenshots below: - firefox.jpg : how the text render in firefox - chrome.jpg  : how the text render in chrome

I am using Firefox version 140.0.2 (64-bit)

Is this a known issue in firefox? and is there a solution to fix the word spacing?

thank you!

Hi, It happened just days ago. The NY times does not let me read articles and tells me I am a bot not a human (I am a subscriber) or that someone is using my IP. I tried everything, clearing cache and data for everything, signed in again to no avail. I tried using a VPN to mask the IP... no success I have no problem reading it on Chrome, but I prefer Firefox. Does anyone have more ideas? The agent from NY times I contacted really was no help at all. Thanks

Any idea why Firefox is not supported on this website? https://mypay.dfas.mil

It's been that way for over a decade. Thx.

Hi Mozilla Support,

I'm experiencing an issue when trying to open a specific page on my website in Firefox. The page URL is: 👉 https://ihop-menus.com/ihop-secret-menu/

It either loads very slowly or sometimes gets stuck on a blank screen. I’ve tested the same page on Chrome and Edge, and it loads normally there, so the issue seems to be specific to Firefox.

Could this be related to JavaScript rendering, caching, or some browser-specific incompatibility? I’ve cleared the cache, tried private mode, and disabled add-ons, but the issue persists.

Any insights or troubleshooting tips would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Lately (the last few weeks) Facebook has been getting increasingly buggy and upset on Firefox. General browsing has intermittent speed issues, but in particular opening images off a Facebook page to view will freeze Firefox for 30 seconds or more almost every time, and after a while it usually gives an error about the page slowing FF down. I can close the tab, and if I go to another tab with a different website open then that works normally, but the Facebook tab is dead to the world during this time and doesn't respond to anything except being closed.

Facebook doesn't do this on Edge, and Firefox doesn't have the issue with any other websites, but Facebook now is almost at the point of being unusable.

I've cleared the cache completely, tried debugging mode with extensions disabled, and refreshed Firefox, nothing makes any difference.

Although I received an answer on this question, I probably was not detailed enough to indicate why this seems to be an issue with Firefox's interface with Google, as opposed to only Google. When I'm clicking on the Google search bar I get the attached message indicating unusual traffic on the network and requiring me to do the captcha crap. What I failed to mention before is this does not happen if I use Chrome or if I go through Duck Duck Go and then into Google from there. It only happens in the top search bar on Firefox. The reason it's so frustrating is the captcha keeps going through multiple pictures, even though the captured screens are accurate for the requested pics. Perhaps someone can suggest a solution even if you still don't believe it's a Firefox issue. I'm not a computer or network expert so a more detailed explanation for how I can solve this would really help me out. Thank you.

Hello, I subscribe to several substacks and, all of sudden, I cannot like, comment, or do anything on substack if I'm using Firefox. None of the buttons respond. I have tried disabling the ad blocker and tracker blocker (I use Badger and Ghostery) but that did not help. If I use a different browser, everything works fine. Any ideas would be very much appreciated!

While I am able to log into my Google account in Chrome, I am unable to do so in Firefox after the latest update. Whenever I try, I am redirected to the attached support page, which asks me to delete cookies and cache contents. Deleting those does not help.

Please help!
