Firefox-Hilfeforum

A recent update to Firefox browser seems to have changed how caching works for websites. I've noticed it mainly with Reddit and their 'random' feature. I can only go to one random sub-reddit and then from that point forward it will only go to that same sub-reddit when I hit the Random link. For instance if I hit random and it takes me to say www.reddit.com/r/Ohio/ then from that point on I only get the Ohio sub-reddit when clicking the Random link. If I clear my cache and reopen Firefox I again get one click on Random and then any further clicks take me to the first, random sub-reddit.

This is not replicated in Microsoft Edge or with Firefox in private windows. I have disabled all of addons to see if one of them was causing this behaviour but it made no change.

Hi there,

I'm using my PC for local web development. I use Firefox as my regular browser and recently, in order to distinguish between personal time and development time, I've established a new profile just for development purposes.

The local website I can't reach is "site.local.dev". My OS is Ubuntu 20.04 and that URL points to a local IP on my network (resolved via /etc/hosts file on my PC).

Funny thing is that: - In dev-profile: site.local.dev does not work => "Unable to connect" and the URL bar shows https://site.local.dev even if I force it to http:// - In personal-profile: site.local.dev does work :P

I have tried with CLI tools like "wget", "hosts", "ping", "telnet" and so on and the site loads ok. Even I have used Dillo (damn simple web browser) and the site loads ok also.

Things I've tried so far: - Suggestions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can - Suggestions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1011327 (similar issue, not exactly the same).

It must be a silly thing but I'm out of options now. Perhaps anybody has faced to this situation in the past: any suggestion on this issue?.

Thanks in advance, Ibon.

Hi, Its been happening for a while now and i assumedd it was hardware related in the past but after upgrading the rig i thoguht id see if it changed but it didnt i can even run stress tests pushing gpu and cpu to the max and still the video plays fine but when i go into another fullscreen application the freezing/stuttering begins, when i go on most if not any website that streams video, Netflix/Twitch are the main culprits when i tab into another appliaction they stutter if not freeze completley but the audio remains fine, i tried to troubleshoot and come up short so thought id try my luck here, Ive tried disabling (Even uninstalling) all plugins and restarted and no joy, created a new profile and used that, no joy, however when i launch firefox in troubleshooting mode from about:support the issue isnt present and i cant figure out what the issue is since it occurs on a new profile with no changes or addons which i thought was the same as launching in troubleshooting mode but there seems to be something different which i hope to find out, streaming outside the browser through apps like netflix works fine when im in another application just not in browser specs are below if it helps:

FF Version: 99.0.1 (64-bit) GPU: RTX3090 (Around 80% usage at absoulte maximum in another game for instance so still room it can be around 50% when on low demand applications and stutter still happens) CPU: I7-12700K (Around 50-60% usage in a high demand game so without that its barely even using any effort) RAM: 32GB 4800Mhz (Again under load still half of that left to use) Internet download speed: 1Gbps (Doesnt flucuate from monitering it, hard wired via ethernet)

Summery:

My profile: Stutters Freezing My profile all addons disabled: Stutters Freezing Brand New profile with nothign changed (And not logged in): Stutters Freezing Launch in troobleshooting mode from about:support: No stutters/freezing (Even when the hardware is being pushed)

Hi - I have an affiliate marketing business which uses deeplinks to take my visitors to specific product pages on third party websites. These work fine in Google Chrome but on Firefox the deeplink goes to the website homepage only. Does anyone know what I can do about this? thanks Gina

I have no audio in youtube when using Firefox only. Audio works fine in other browsers.

I am tech-challenged and this has been going on for a while, but I now really need to use youtube, but do not want to use a browser other than Firefox.

Thank you.

I can access all the usual websites I visit, but not my own website: "zoomselling.com." However, I can access it on my cell phone and the website folks checked and tell me my website is working fine. I was able to access the website using 'duckduckgo' but only after I verified I wasn't a bot. I think there's some security issue that is causing the firefox browser problems with the website.

I was on a website last night to pay property taxes and the check box won't click. had to switch to safari. Had issues with tax act with the same similar problems. firefox 99.0.1 OS 10.13.6

My website https://nombresparafreefire.mx/separador-de-nombres-para-free-fire/ Separador Nombres not showing on Mozila search results. Are there any webmaster or how can i make it appear? Open for Advices and Suggestions! (It is indexed on Google completely )

What can I do to prevent websites from logging me out "due to inactivity" and "for your safety" (lol)? This happens with many of my financial (banking/brokerage) sites, for instance, or some tax return sites.

I went them to be like my email accounts (e.g. gmail, yahoo mail). You can have a tab open for Gmail and another tab open for yahoo mail, and even if you don't click or type a single character in hours, they will not log me out.

Is there some way to trick these patronizing "We'll log you out for your good" websites from logging me off?

AOL Mail and Twitter no longer load starting today using the Firefox browser. Have restarted and pretty much spent a couple hours trying to fix on my own. AOL keeps trying to load the mail but won't...but works great on my IPAD and my IPhone. Same with Twitter...it's just stuck on the loading screen. Cleared history and cache but nothing works. HELP.

I need to access Canvas as part of my school coursework. As of yesterday, Canvas refuses to load in Firefox. I've restarted my Mac, made sure Firefox is up to date, and tried running Canvas in Chrome, where it worked just fine. My internet connection is also stable. All other websites seem to be working in Firefox, but for some reason Canvas doesn't load after any amount of time and the interface appears as the attached image. Any help? Firefox is my preferred browser and I actually cannot do any online coursework without Canvas, so any suggestions or advice are very welcome.

Hello, so Uh from some point my we pages stopped working when they are using Javascript page like wormhole.app for example and when I launched Firefox, my theme was disabled and all my extensions were installed, but not showing in the extension bar

They had invisible icons which can be clicked on and show text like "dark reader etc." But when you click them it doesn't show anything I'm on windows 10

When using firefox web browser to visit investors.com, I receive the attached image as the web page. I've been using this website on this browser for months and never had an issue until today.

There is a site I can access with Safari from my iPhone but not with FireFox or Edge from my Windows laptop. Specifically, the site is www.thechildrensmediaconference.com. I have tried the advice in a previous thread on this theme with no success

Every time I enter a link to a google service, I see a notice that says "Your should be redirected in a moment..." and then I get redirected to the Stanford University website (https://pass.stanford.edu/signin.html). It is not a specific website redirecting me, but rather some algorithm is detecting a google link and sending me to Stanford University instead . For instance, if I paste in a link to a particular location in Google Maps, I will end up at Stanford instead. I have no idea how to fix this, but it makes me avoid Firefox and use Chrome because Chrome does not redirect. I would rather use Firefox.

So, I was an bought an Jabra Elite 85h headphones few weeks ago for gaming and watching YouTube videos. They were working fine until today when I was watching PUBG gameplay videos on YouTube (on Firefox). They operate perfectly great in Chrome, however when I use Firefox, It produces very low sound and It's really bothering me. I was also tried to increase the headphones volume by following the steps mentioned here.

https://www.headphoneoutput.com/how-to-make-headphones-louder/

But It's not working. I don't what to do. This is not an headphones issue but I think It might be a compatibility issue with Firefox? I can't afford the new headphones. :(

Hi, I did one of those updates you have and it really messed up my computer where it just won't allow me to open many of the website that I regularly use, such as my gmail or even the SSA.gov. Whenever an update is done, some issues come to mess up my computer. So, is it possible that someone can help me solve this issue?

Thanks!
