Firefox is my default browser. The problems have arisen from around December 27th 2025. Till then everything worked smoothly. The first problem is that if I go to google.com then search for say , “Wordle”. The search output is displayed on the screen but when I click on the search result, it does not go anywhere- nothing happens.

The second issues, is till the problem cropped up, I had set google.com as the custom url for home page and windows through settings, home, and had used an extension, “ New tab override” available from Firefox, to set every new tab to open as google.com The url for the webpage works but the new tab override does not. I have tried removing the extension but problem 1 persists.

The third issue is that I have subscriptions to newspapers and had set up the logins. These newspapers are in my bookmarks. When I click on the bookmark the main page opens but the login area is missing. It tells me to get a subscription. e.g., among others, NY times, Uniqlo gb, the Turnitin of my university will not load although I am logged in to the university. I have cleaned all cookies, removed all extension including Ad blockers to fix the problem, tried resetting all to default setting but nothing works. Would appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you.

In order to connect to Amazon using Firefox on my PC, I am required to scan a QR code with my phone and then, presumably, connect via Firefox or Amazon apps (instructions woefully unclear). It NEVER works. It's no big deal, but it is annoying, particularly since I want to use Firefox as my default browser. I can always connect via Google or Edge. For those of us who aren't tech savvy, why don't you add standard two-factor authentication or Windows Hello as an option?

Hello everyone. From a while now that I need to change to Google Chrome everytime I want to put my credit card details to buy something online. Simply because the text boxes in Firefox don't show. They're simply not there. There are very few websites where they show up for half a second and disappear right after. I've tried disabling "enhanced tracking protection", disabling all my plug-ins, changing the "hardware performance" option, cleaning cache and cookies. Nothing seems to work. I'm going crazy because I like firefox and I want to work always in this one browser, not changing each time I want to do a different task. Similar thing happens with some websites when they freeze before you explore them and the pop-up window comes asking you about the cookies. But some of these, the window disappears right away, so I can see the page but it's stuck, because I didn't manage to accept the cookies option

Please, can you advise me what can I do? It's getting very frustrating, I'm really considering moving everything to Chrome and I don't want to. Thank you.

Bellow you see an example of Firefox page and Chrome.

In Firefox, the animation exhibits performance issues like stuttering, particularly in elements that rely on animateTransform and animate for movement or opacity transitions. This issue is not present in Chrome, where the animations run smoothly without any noticeable lag.

Expected Behavior: The animation should render smoothly on both Chrome and Firefox without any stuttering or lag, providing a seamless experience for users.

Steps to Reproduce:

Open the provided SVG code in Firefox.

Observe the animation, particularly the elements with animate and animateTransform attributes.

Notice the stuttering or lag compared to the smooth rendering in Chrome.

When I try to connect to the SSA login site, I get this message:

"Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit."

If I use Microsoft Edge, the login works fine.

I can not login to my Vanguard.com account Called Vanguard and they said they were having major problems with people using Fire Fox as their server. I can use Safari and everything works fine. Please advise.....

Every time I get an update, it scares me. The latest update took uploaded a file using firefly. Could I do it using Chrome - yep - it uploaded my file without any issues. I keep hanging on to firefox but I need to changeover. The constant updates should be be happening.

I can login to my iCloud account with Chrome with no issues. Using the same User Name and Same password in Firefox it will not login. Instead it wants me to use different password. I know the UN and PWD are correct as I use Roboform password manager AND I can login using that data using Chrome. That tells me it is a Firefox issue?? HELP

I can no longer log in to "EDD" to certify for my unemployment benefits using Firefox. When I called EDD, they said that because I was using Firefox as my browser that that was the issue. They said that others that were using Firefox were having problems as well. They said Firefox should be coming out with a fix, but I am am still not able to login. I have to open up another tab and use Microsoft Edge to login. This is a pain. Please help, Steve. I am not sure if one of the frequent updates I get from Firefox created the problem or perhaps changed a setting?

certain web sites are not available on my PC via firefox browser. Have to switch to Edge to access. Have had this happen a number of times for different websites but was amazed that couldn't access social security admin (ssa.gov). Received this error message:

Bad Request

Thank you

I am not familiar with settings, therefore I am unable to get a few of my pogo games to work. One of the games is Jungle Gin., no cards. On the Browser EDGE I can play Jungle Gin. I have been told it is a software problem with Mozilla. Please fix it for me. Thanks

Lately firefox won't access microsoft chat get a 500.3 net access error. The us bank's transaction list randomly sorts and often the server can't push new update info. hitting F5 refreshes, but that is the job of the server. thx

The Summarize Page AI feature works with ChatGPT but not with Gemini, it just refreshes Gemini but the prompt is never shared with Gemini and hence the page is not summarized.

bonjour

Je suis administrateur d'un Google Workspace, et depuis la dernière mise à jour de Firefox, lorsque j'essaye de me connecter à la page des paramètres avancés d'un groupe Google, Google me renvoie Erreur 403. Avant la mise à jour, cela fonctionnait parfaitement. Si je passe par un autre navigateur, par exemple Edge, je n'ai pas de message d'erreur et j'arrive à me connecter.

J'ai bien la dernière version à jour de Firefox (146.0.1)

Pouvez vous m'aider ?

Merci

I just bought my boyfriend a new iMac. We are having trouble loading many sites and platforms using the latest Firefox browser. The list is growing but includes Facebook, Meetup, Wikipedia, chess.com, nytimes.com - in all cases, rather than a login screen, we get an error message or a home page loads with no access to other pages or login area. I've cleared the cache, restarted, tried going directly to the site to log in, but nothing works. Everything is fine when using Chrome, but we prefer Firefox. Is this a conflict in the new Apple OS? Is there a fix?
