Firefox Community Forum

I just bought an HP Omnidesk M02-0085m PC running Windows 11 Home edition. For some reason Prime video works in other browsers, but in Firefox I get audio and a black screen. I am not using any ad blockers and I have tried toggling performance settings on/off. Any suggestions?

I am using Firefox on my MacOS Tahoe. There is a persistent annoying issue where whenever I close (physically fold) my laptop screen and reopen it, Firefox will be frozen. It will be frozen in the sense that I am unable to interact with any tabs or anything until I manually quit Firefox and reopen it (which automatically reopens all my tabs), making it usable again. This doesn't happen every time I close and reopen my Mac, but it definitely happens the majority of the time and makes the browser hard to use.

I've attached a screenshot of what a new window looks like when Firefox is frozen. It looks just like a Firefox window when unfocused.

Notes:

• It doesn't entirely freeze Firefox. In fact, I can "switch" to a different tab by clicking on the tab and then shutting and reopening my laptop again. The new tab will show on reopening but Firefox will still be frozen. This process can be repeated.
• I can pretty consistently replicate the bug by shutting my laptop, waiting 10 seconds, and reopening it. This will almost always result in the freeze.
• The bug still happens if I'm not focused on the Firefox window but on a different app.
• The bug doesn't seem to happen if I just lock my screen but don't shut it closed.

Things I've tried that haven't fixed it:

• Updating my OS.
• Restarting my laptop.
• Disabling hardware acceleration.
• Disabling themes and extensions.
• Deleting and reinstalling Firefox, including deleting the user data in the "Library/Application Support" folder.

Let me know if there's any more information I can provide or fixes I can try. Also let me know if I should go ahead and file a Firefox bug report for this. Thank you.

(My laptop is very slow. I have cleaned the cashe, performed disc cleanup, cleaned the memory, and everything i can think of. I opened task manager and see that multiple instances of Firefox open. (photo #1) I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. I have also tried changing the preferences to 1 instance, but it wont allow me to. (photo #2) Please help.

Spell out what you want as I personally have no clue.I am 90 years old so what do you want .?, Should I just ignore these requestsd instead , as I have no idea what more to do... When you are 90 I wondder if you understab][nd the request to update. All I use my computer is for personal use only

I had the Primary password set.

Today I restarted Firefox to install some updates (not sure if that's relevant), and when I opened Firefox again, I expected to enter my primary password for sync, but nothing showed up. I thought it was some bug after update or something, so I closed and reopened Firefox, but no dialog box came out.

So I went to passwords section and tried to view one password, which should prompt me to enter my primary password, but it just showed the password to me without asking for my primary. This is where I got quite scared.

I went to my settings and I found out that my primary password is just... not set. I did not remove it, I never told it to anyone, I didn't give anyone a chance to extract it. But it is just not there.

What the hell is going on? I couldn't find any answer to this, anywhere. Is there some option to see how/when was my primary password removed? Some logs?

New computer upgrade from MS10 to MS 11 365. I lost all bookmarks for internet locations. How do I retrieve them? Where is the new bookmark access icon on the Firefox home screen?

Greetings, I have a problem with Firefox taking too long to load websites after login, while Edge loads websites immediately. It happens every time I lift the laptop lid and login. I have restarted Windows 11 and tested the load times of Firefox and Edge a while ago by going to Google. Edge loaded Google after 5 seconds, while Firefox 3 minutes and 25 seconds. That's long. Sometimes Firefox loads a webpage 10 minutes after login.

What could be the issue here and how do I fix it? I have the following extensions and I'm sure that they do not hinder Firefox.

Firefox offers to automatically save user IDs and corresponding passwords on a site by site basis. It then will offer (or in some cases just insert the information) on the same site's login page when you return. This seems to be called "autofill" in the documents.

However, for some sites (and this appears to be random), when confronted with a login page, not only will Firefox automatically insert the user ID and PW (autofill), but for each step it will ALSO accept the insertion to move to the next question, effectively automatically log in.

For example, for one site, when I open a new tab and navigate to a site that I had previously saved user ID and PW for, the login page will briefly flash, and then I will be automatically logged into the site. There seems to be no name that I can find to describe this behaviour that distinguishes it from the "autofill" described above. I will call it "autologin" for this question.

My question is how to control this behaviour? I have not consciously chosen to have Firefox autologin for any site, but I do save ID and PW for the autofill capability. Is there a way to turn the autologin on or off (i.e. control it) for specific sites?

Meine Firefox-Rahmen (Menü oben und unten) sind rosa eingefärbt und im Text auch unterlegt. Ixh möchte wieder das gewohnte Hellgrau. Das funktioniert aber leider nicht über Einstellungen und add Ons. was ist zu tun? Ansonsten wechsele ich auf MSN

This is happening more frequently. sometimes clicking links works but the cursor will not respond if i hover over the new tab button. To continue I have to select a new firefox window, The unresponsive window remains in error even when a new working window is active.
