For some reason text rendered in canvases (used by Minecraft hostings to display console) is distorted. I'm not getting this behavior in other browsers (including Zen – Firefox fork). The issue persists in both stable and nightly versions, with and without hardware acceleration, in safe mode too. Any clues?

I've been using Firefox and Gmail on my PC and android phone for years. Today I can't log into my gmail account on my PC and instead it redirects to google support and goes on about clearing cache etc etc. I have cleared the cache but no different. I have restarted my pc and no different. PC is Windows 10.

I can log in to gmail using Google Chrome so I can't see that it is a Google problem. I can also log in ok on my Android phone.

Is this a Firefox issue?

The thumbnails can be momentarily seen but within less than a second they disappear. Not happening in edge so doesn't seem to be a computer setting. Cleared all cookies and cache in firefox. No different. The attached image shows the pictures that are missing in firefox. Image taken from an Edge search.

Thank you in anticipation. Steve Balderson

Hi, I have an HTML page - currently on the desktop PC - that contains a few graphics (they relate to IPA sounds) and a bit of javascript which will make the sounds play when the user mouses-over the graphic, and stop on mouse-out. The script uses <embed> tags. I know these arent favoured but I think they should still work, as they have in the past, so the script itself is fine. But there is no sound (obviously I have checked the src is correct and made sure the speakers are on and working. They are.) W10, FF ver 128.6.0esr (64-bit)

During what I assume are high bitrate sections of YouTube videos (e.g. lots of movement, high resolution) YouTube will constantly drop frames.

Video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLuTLF3x9sA

I have tried: • Safe Mode • Installing the Flatpak and testing in that, which also has a fresh profile as I don't use the Flatpak version • Testing different related about:config settings – I can't remember them all now, but I tested every one I found googling that is related to the issue or hardware acceleration.

Hardware acceleration is for sure working. Turning it off makes the video drop to one or two FPS.

Chromium has no problem with the same video. However, you can see from the screenshots that both read the resolution/scaling of my screen differently, and it implies that Firefox is rendering something like 6314 x 3552 while Chromium is rendering at UHD, the resolution of the screen and my video. If I turn off all my Global Scaling, Firefox stops dropping frames (the same info box on YouTube states resolution is UHD), reinforcing my theory about scaling being the issue. Both are confirmed to be using native Wayland.

I am looking for a way to adjust the settings, or really anything else, in a way that would result in the site being displayed like it should be because it is a rather integral part of the game and I really don't know where else to look anymore. Now, I suspect that it's because I switched to Ubuntu because I've never had this issue with Firefox while I still used Windows, but I really hope there's a way to resolve this. That being said, it seems to be specific to Firefox for Ubuntu because the colors show up in the menu when I use Opera on the same OS.

The four images I've added should show what I'm talking about (I really don't have a way to phrase this any better, sorry) and I really want Firefox to display the drop down menu like it is supposed to look: the colors themselves underneath the text. (it looks like Firefox on mobile now if that is any help in figuring out where to start, but I don't see why it would fail to show the site correctly on desktop)

The part of the site in the first two pictures is accessible without an account: Scrying Workshop

Edit: It occurs to me that I probably should list what I've tried already. - disabled enhanced tracking protection - checked my settings (colors are not overwritten) - tried it with a new profile - disabled all extensions - reinstalled Firefox

After upgrading to FIREFOX 133 everything became a mess !!

Most pages will RANDOMLY not load and show “Security Connection Failed” message, indicating mostly one of this two errors Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG Additionally and consistently trying to access Amazon makes it think I am a Robot, and shows a page with a Captcha but the images do not load (Image attached) 1Password fails in some pages (Such as CNN), the page shows an error message when userid & password are filled in, rendering it useless. NONE of this happen on previous versions of Firefox or on EDGE with the updated Norton360

I have tried: - Uninstalling, deleting all files and re-installing both Firefox and Norton 360 - Deleting the Firefox profile and starting from zero - Using Firefox without any Extension, it works for a while but then fails (memory overlay issue ?) - Loading a few extensions, again works for a while but then fails. If more trhan 4 or 5 extensions are loaded the problem is immediate (memory overlay issue ?) - Turning off Norton sometimes helps get to a page, and when turning it back on keeps working … Sometimes it does not - - Checked all indicaytions on support article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/secure-connection-failed-firefox-did-not-connect without any luck WHAT TO DO ?

Recently, my bookmarks have disappeared (but leaving empty folders), reappeared, or reappeared but incompletely. (incompletely meaning not all showed up - alphabetically, only bookmarks beginning through letter "D." When I search bookmarks, the "missing ones" show-up in the results; they are just not visible in the toolbar. Similarly, if I try to add a new bookmark, it does not show. Help! thanks

firefox changed and firefox nolonger lets me get my email, bank account, fidelity account, credit card account etc -- can you help me go back to my old firefox? thank you or do I need to start using another browser?

Hi!

I've noticed dropped frames in videos for a while now, but only recently tested the issue. Using youtubes stats for nerds, I found that when videos have a small viewport resolution, it starts to drop frames. (I would test with other sites but only know of youtubes stats for nerds system to detect issues like this) For example a viewport resolution of 1250x703 does not drop frames, however by unmaximising the screen and the viewport resolution drops to 681x383, it begins dropping frames.

Using my 2nd monitor which has a smaller actual resolution, the video drops frames unless fullscreened, see recordings below. Test A | Firefox Maximised but video not fullscreen Test B | Firefox Maximised and video fullscreen This issue also occurs with picture-in-picture mode.

Disabling hardware acceleration fixes this issue but for some reason only affects firefox, using MS Edge with "graphics acceleration" enabled does not result in this issue. Is this potentially an issue specifically with how firefox handles hardware acceleration? Also since I require hardware acceleration to be enabled for 3D model work in my browser, is there something I'm missing here that would allow me to keep hardware acceleration on but not have this issue?

Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

Hi everyone, I've looked for help but can't seem to find what works. I went to about:config and searched for toolkit.winRegisterApplicationRestart and made it false, it worked for less than a week and now firefox is starting when the computer boots up. How do i stop this? I'm using windows 11 24h2. I've been using firefox for years. My computer boots up faster than my router and it keeps saying i don't have internet. I'd appreciate any help thanks.

From last 2 days the website's specific product page https://hassan-brothers.ae/product/thermal-rolls-80-x-80mm-receipt-paper-48gsm/ continuously showing "refused to connect". as a developer I had to manage and add products for my client but unfortunately this problem occurs. I contacted to the hosting provider they said "I think some kind of sql query issue" after working on SQL it's working on other's end but still I unable to access.

Kindly resolve my issue thank you. I urgently need this.

I have sound in Windows, but YouTube is dead quit. I have tried all that is suggested in Firefox help and some YouTube sites. Nothing worked. I have tried off the computer and restarted, but no change. My system is Windows 11, sound works, and the latest Firefox update installed. Question is this a YouTube tacit to stop NoScript and uBlock?

I'm using the vertical tabs feature. I also tried enabling the "Expand sidebar on hover" option, which minimizes the side bar, and only expands it when you hover on it.

Issue: I have a lot of open tabs, and I'm usually working with the ones at the bottom of the list. When the bar minimizes the scroll position resets back to the beginning. So, every time I want to select a tab, I have to scroll back down, which makes this feature very hard to use.

Expected behavior: After the vertical bar minimizes, and I hover again, it should keep the scroll position.
