My apple computer performed an uninitiated re-boot and now the Firefox icon in the task bar does not show Firefox as running, but when I click on the icon it tells me that Firefox is open and it cannot open another window. How to I shut Firefox down and re-start it?

Hello there,

while trying to stream a Live-Stream i unfortunately get the following error, while the stream is loading: "Playback cannot continue. No available working or supported playlists."

Is anybody else encountering this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely

I am having an issue in browser like most of the times when try to open sites even sometimes my own cavity back irons site the browser giving error "wait or close page" like this & sometimes browser crash suddenly and reopen. Why it's happens? kindly let me know the solution. Thanks.

I often see that some pages take up too much memory. This critically affects the performance of my laptop with 8 GB of memory. However, I was unable to reproduce this behaviour. Now I have caught two web pages.

https://linuxhandbook.com/sort-top-command/ 

and https://www.tutorialspoint.com/how-to-find-number-of-ram-slots-in-linux The first page quickly takes up 1-2GB and continues to drain memory. The maximum usage was 7 GB on a laptop with 16 GB of memory. This behaviour is the same in Firefox and Chrome. The second page quickly takes up 2GB, which is very noticeable on 8GB laptops. Why do these pages take up so much memory? Most importantly, how can you protect yourself from such an unexpected memory consumption?

The "Layout.css.page-size.enabled" configuration parameter = False ,worked effectively in previous versions, but after updating to Firefox 119.0, it no longer works whether I set it to True or False.

Orientation option is missing when I try to print documents from a website. The Firefox Print Preview window, which usually allows orientation choices for printing, is now not available.

Please advise. Thanks!

I've temporarily turned off the two settings for ocsp_stapling but would like to know if anyone else has all of a sudden started getting this error.

I've been working on a website for the past few weeks and have had no problem until today when I tried to access it and received the error...

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to nycc.site. The OCSP response does not include a status for the certificate being verified.

Error code: MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_OCSP_RESPONSE_FOR_CERT_MISSING

The site in question is currently https://nycc.site but this may not be up much longer as it will migrate to a new server in the coming week or two.

A couple of weeks ago the scroll wheel on my Logitech mouse stopped working with Firefox. It works fine on all other applications on my computer but will not work on any web page or any Firefox menu. I am not using XMBC. I updated to Firefox 119.0.1 this morning and it didn't make any difference.

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

Firefox started crashing today and I've gone through all the recommended fixes. I've reinstalled, tried opening in troubleshooting mode (still crashes right away), opening with a new profile did not work either, I've updated/checked my drivers and all seems to be in order there. Nothing I've tried has fixed the issue yet.

Last week my laptop broke down and I needed to reinstall Windows. Since my laptop is old, it can only support Windows 7 and since I installed it, I can't use Netflix nor other streaming services. On Netflix's page it says I don't have the latest version installed and I did all I was suggested to do and all solutions that was offered by Netflix is in order (browser history is on, I have the latest version of Firefox, I restarted and reinstalled my browser, DRM content is on, Firefox content plugins are up to date and I'm using official version of Firefox). Don't know what else I can do, except to change the browser which I really don't want to but if nothing else will work... Please help. Thanks, Danijela

I have a work and personal profile. On my work profile, when I go to amazon, I see the pricetag icon in the URL bar and it works as expected. However, on my personal profile, it's not showing up at all; no icon, no prompt, it's like it doesn't exist for that profile. I've restarted both profiles, and it still isn't showing up.

I'd prefer to do my shopping on my personal profile, and not my work profile. Any ideas why it's not working on one?

On mac I have been getting constant firefox crashes when in gmail after a minute or on other work sites. I have tried it in toubleshoot mode as well and it worked fine a little longer but still crashed. Crash IDs in attached image.

Dear Madams/Sirs, why does firefox using a download limit. Each transfer stops (without a message) after downloading 1GB. I couldn't find any configuration-points where it is possible to change the download limit. With using Microsoft Edge I got full downloads greater 1GB. Many thanks in advance.

Hello- I am having a very strange thing when using Firefox. I type and certain letters pop that I have not typed. It is different letters that are affected. it has been the E a number 2 shows instead s a m shows instead. There have been others but I did not make note, My solution is to close firefox and reopen. I have updated to newest version. Do you know why this is happening and a better solution. Also when I go to Chrome the letters do not transpose. HElp Stephana

Hi Firefox Team, I am a university student, and I keep getting these messages below, especially when I am doing research for my assignments; it is painful as time is of the essence. I need your help asap. I have already cleared my cache, and cookies Thank you The connection was reset

Firefox browser problem. When dragging the mouse over text on a webpage to select text I want to copy, some of the selected text and an area of webpage adjacent to the text I'm trying to select is blocked by a box that automatically appears. Sometimes it whites-out a box-shape but usually it's blacks-out. This blocks that part of the page and some of the text I'm trying to select while I'm dragging my mouse and I can't see the mouse while I'm trying to select text within that box. What did I do to cause this and can I change something to make it stop? This is only when using Firefox and I didn't have this issue until October 2023.

Firefox displays websites with gibberish for headlines. I've monkeyed with the "Fonts" preferences in the Settings to no avail. Perhaps I'm not choosing correctly. They are currently set with Firefox's defaults and the box allowing websites to choose their own fonts is also selected. No matter what I've done, it looks like the attached image. Help!

Today firefox can't lunch at all, I made a clearing, also reinstalling (but not "clear" reinstall). There is no any crashes or crash reports, it just doesn't launch
