Firefox-Hilfeforum

It is sort in the background like a page behind the main screen I am viewing but it causes Firefox to crash. I have seen other posts say disable hardware acceleration, but mine is disabled, others say disabled extension, but I only have ublock! It is not my graphics card as it is all up to date. My laptop is new 6 months old.

This brings up something I have been trying to fix for more than a year. When I click on the email link "Start with a free scan", google.com appears at the bottom left and nothing happens, not just with your link but with all. I have waited many minutes just to see if it will link. Sometimes, after minutes, it connects. I have been trying to get Google out of this in "mailto" but cannot. If I right click "open in a new page", google does come up, the target site does (I think) and we move along normally.

Can't you fix this? Google it and you'll see it everywhere. Mozilla has a suggested approach online which does not work. Please help all the AVG and Firefox folks who suffer with this.

Thank you,

Hi, lately I have been having issues with updates. When Firefox browser in MacOS gets update, it ask me to sign in to all platforms again. This wasn't the case at all before.

Looking forward to the responses.

Thanks!

Firefox 123.0 MacOS 13.6.3 Ventura

Firefox does not automatically create a new empty window on startup. Neither starting from "applications" nor clicking icon in the dock

Instead once has to right click the icon then click "New Window"

Why is it that the people who "improve" products are always dickering with the look and feel to no benefit to the user? Why suddenly does a new empty window not open? Fantastic job Mozilla. It takes me an hour or so to figure out how to even get a window with the default web page URL and then I have to perform forever after three clicks instead on one.

I have a suggestion. The next time you think about changing the look and feel: DON'T. It is just that simple. DON'T.

Etter siste oppdatering av Fiefox, forsvant all historikk. Hendt en gang tidligere, men da fikk jeg ordnet det med en tidligere profil. Denne gangen gikk det ikke. Finnes det nå måte på å finne historikk eldre enn 6 mnd?

When I start my computer I get the following error message: Firefox cannot access C\Program FilesFF\windowsapps\Microsoft windows.cross device_1.24012.0x64_cwsn1...

I'm having this insanely irritating bug where when I have my DAW software, specifically FL Studio, open at the same time as Firefox, and I try to pull up any sort of video or content, whether that be Youtube, Twitch, Dropbox or Google Drive files, or even videos just being queued up by Twitter or Reddit in the background, there'll be a chance that Firefox sort of "crashes," and goes all white (or grey with the default theme) for up to dozens of seconds, and forces the video to reload, or it just breaks the player.

​I need to be able to use my browser and my DAW at the same time to preview and drag files into it, and to work with video, so closing one or the other isn't an option. I've tried everything short of a drive wipe and OS reinstall; I've tried making a new profile, disabling extensions, disabling hardware acceleration, the troubleshoot mode, and even a complete wipe and reinstall of both Firefox and FL Studio. Nothing has worked.

​Has anyone else had that issue and hopefully been able to fix it? Or does anyone know any way to alleviate this? Thank you!

​I'm using Windows 11 Pro on a Framework 13 with an AMD 7840U with all the latest updates and drivers, and can provide specifics if needed.

Hello,

After Firefox asked me to reset it and I created a folder with old firefox data, now Firefox does not open at all. I have tried to install it from scratch several times but the program is still not responding. I copied the folder with the old data to the 'Profiles' folder in Library/ApplicationSupport/Firefox and it still doesn't work (the icon keeps bouncing without the program opening). Can someone help me as soon as possible? Thank you very much.

Greetings,

I had stumbled on a list of your fixed bugs lists and noticed updates were made on my keyboard.

On 03/09/2024, my left shift key, z, X and C keys are not working.

I have to copy and paste those letters from other documents to type it here. Do you have any idea how those keys stopped working?

Thank you in advance for your input.

On Windows 11. After the last Firefox update, the mouse wheel on google sheets does not scroll correctly. One wheel movement scrolls down hundreds of lines. Microsoft Edge works fine. I tried the different mouse settings in Firefox with no luck.

MacBook Air, OSX 12.6.1 Firefox 123.0.1 iPhone 12 IOS 17.3.1

Using a wifi hotspot from my iPhone, Firefox on the Mac gives me "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site." for all sites. As if there is no internet connection Chrome works fine, other internet based apps like Skype, Whatsapp work fine (but Mac Mail won't connect either)

Before IOS 17, everything worked fine.

Is there a setting in Firefox that is responding to something new in IOS 17's hotspotting feature?

Thanks

Since the update on 123.0.1 on 7th March 2024 I am unable to access online banking on either Lloyds or Halifax UK banking. I have tried removing all cookies and then all data and then full refresh of software all to no effect. I can log in to both banks via Edge or Gener8 with no problem hence it must be something to do with the Mozilla update done on 7th March as I last accessed both banks using Firefox on 4th March 2024

Hello! I have two FB accounts, one business and one personal. Since they started their new login procedure (trying to get access to your other devices), I can only log into my personal account on FF, because FB gives me other options besides logging in on another device, but on my business account, it doesn't. I work on my computer and refuse to give FB access to my phone because of all the annoying spam and notifications, and because I don't trust them.

I can only login to my business account on Chrome, and I don't trust it either. Is there a setting I need to change on FF to be allowed into this other account?

TIA

Hey!

We have been trying to get to the bottom of this problem in my company, but we ruled out everything else than Firefox itself. Periodically Firefox experiences an APPCRASH event for multiple users. It used on a Windows Server 2019 that is used as a Terminal Server. When this APPCRASH occurs even though the profile of the user is there, Firefox creates a brand new profile for the user and all the passwords and form data is lost. Browsing history is lost too, but that is not a problem.

I've included some tracelog in the troubleshooting info field. Does anyone have any direction that I could go towards?

Thank you!

Hi team,

Since March 18th, 2024, users have encountered latency issues when attempting to log in to ee.co.uk/shop, adversely affecting our company, Torry Harris Integration Solutions, and leading to significant revenue losses. While the issue persists, it's notable that users are experiencing smooth login operations on browsers like Chrome and Edge, suggesting a potential browser-specific compatibility or optimization problem. Immediate investigation into this disparity, along with addressing server overload, network congestion, or database performance issues, is critical to restoring seamless functionality across all browsers and mitigating revenue impact effectively.

Thanks Regards, Gaurav Kumar Torry Harris Integration Solutions.

I have a very annoying issue.

I am on the Firefox ESR version which is deployed via Intune. I am on the latest 115.9.0 and on Windows 11 22H2

After a certain period of time (never took note of it sadly) tabs start crashing and keep crashing. The only way to fix this issue is to terminate firefox via task manager and relaunch.

What is the best way to start investigating this and try to understand what is causing the tab crashes.

I noticed that a couple of times when I click on an external link on a mail or a bookmarked site as icon on my mac, Firefox closes all the tabs and open that link in a new window, so I lose all the tabs and address... Sometime I have more than 30 tabs open and i't difficult to reopen all from history. What happen? Why? I can't see also the "restore last session" command into History menu. Can be fix it? Thank you.

When using the CPU, the browser runs at 144 fps, but if I switch to the GPU, it becomes 60 fps. I tried switching GPUs for firefox in the nvidia control panel and Windows graphics settings - nothing helped. Are there any solutions?
