I have a new Mac mini M2, and Firefox will not work. I have had zero problems with FF on my old mini.

I am operating MacOS 13.3.1 (a), and trying to get Firefox 113.0 to work. It will start, but, after running through the new-install windows, it will not load any pages, such as google, and gets stuck in "a checking for updates" loop. Eventually, I have to force quit. I have removed all traces of previous versions from my system, and restarted, then done a clean install of FF, without loading any previous information, files, tabs, etc. Just the bare bones. All antivirus is off. No plugins other the the Open H264 and Widevine Content Decryption. No extensions. Set on standard privacy.

I have done this several times. Working in trouble shooting mode makes little difference. I can sometimes open 3 tabs before everything goes south.

Safari is working fine.

I'm about to give up on Firefox. Any help would be appreciated.

I've had Firefox issues for months now. It started after the update three updates ago. Firefox would take 10-15 minutes to load, I often couldn't load websites even after it had loaded....except for a couple of nights recently I've been able to use it flawlessly. Like right now. It's almost 11pm and it's working. I've been through the clear the cache, check if the extensions are slowing it down etc. routine. So why is it working now? It probably won't work in the morning, it didn't work last night, but it worked a few nights ago and again tonight. I'm sorry this sounds so strange but I don't know what to do. I've had to use a different browser for a while but would love to come back to Firefox again.

I'm now running in troubleshooting mode with NO extensions.

For weeks my drives have been churning and I've been running out of resource, seeing the hour glass, graying screen, etc.

I finally closed the windows with countless tabs, disabled some extensions, and it got better, but I still have problems, even in troubleshooting mode.

Task manager still shows phantom tabs. I had 4 tabs open, it showed 7, etc.

And strangely, I now see Kaperski Native Messaging with the tabs in task manager: https://www.file.net/process/plugin-nm-server.exe.html

Closed that. Have 7 tabs in one window, task manager shows 11 tabs.

Am so confused.

My Firefox crashes almost constantly, up to several times every couple minutes. I recently wiped my entire computer and reinstalled Windows (to fix other problems, among this one) but the issue is still happening. I have a list of a couple dozen crash logs that I can show, and I have tried reading through them and debugging to no avail. The crashes also still persist in Troubleshoot mode. I have included the most recent crash reports with my freshPlease help.

My firefox suddenly became very slow after an update. On each web page I have to wait maybe 10s, and nothing happens, and after that all is ok (really fast). Safe-mode didn't help. Thanks, Piero

For many years I use Firefox 52.9.0esr on my WinXP computer. And for even more years I have been struggling unsuccessfully with the following problem.

Under "C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\2b9qepw7.default-1469870616368\cache2" there is a folder named "entries", that is constantly inflating! It is now 49.5 GB huge! I can not delete it. Deleting process does start, but doesn’t continue even for a bit or finishes ever. I’ve tried to delete the cache via Firefox preferences unsuccessfully. Even manually via Windows Explorer, even in safe mode (F8 when the computer starts), even with TotalCommander. The folder’s size just suddenly changes to zero when I click on it, but not the real space it’s occupying on my hard drive. I even uninstalled my antivirus and tried all the methods again – to no success…

I have added a video of what happens on my drive if I click on this folder in low resolution: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1E_gqf4s31m7Gr7taW5iUOUzkwe8Oi7iT/view?usp=drivesdk In high resolution: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EaLROHC2p510CvP24nO83wplEkaAgrA9/view?usp=drivesdk

Please help me to solve this problem!

Thank you very much in advance!

Where are my answers ? Could you email me the answer of my yesterday numerous questions. At first: HOW CAN INSTALL JAVA SCRIPT ??? I wish you get this problem with your system 100,000 times and maybe you will do something

Since updating to OS Ventura 13.3.1 Firefox crashes 10 seconds after opening. Trying to open in troubleshoot mode doesn’t help, neither did a clean reinstall of the application. Meanwhile the browser still works on my iPhone and an older laptop running Monterey.

Here is the crash report:

This report also contains technical information about the state of the application when it crashed.

in the last day firefox has all but stopped working on most websites. i can go to them and they start to load, but then they eventually break halfway through and either end up loading forever or produce an error. if i look at the console i see "Source map error: Error: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource." this happens on twitter.com and raidbots.com to name two off the top of my head.

i did a complete refresh and even completely uninstalled and reinstalled the browser - it started working for a bit and then broke again. i have no plugins or extensions enabled currently (i have dashlane but this happens with it enabled or disabled). it's making the browser unusable. ive scanned my computer for malware and cant find anything either. i don't have this problem in any other browsers so not sure what else to try.

When I run the Divi Builder on the agencia221b.com site, it crashes firefox.

The testes I've made so far: If i run divi builder from other sites in the same hosting, it crashes firefox. If i run divi builder from those sites in incognito mode, everything runs normally. If i run divi builder from those sites in firefox troubleshooting mode, it crashes firefox. If i run divi builder from those sites with all extensions disabled, it crashes firefox. If i run divi builder from other sites in other hosting, all runs normally. If i run divi builder from those sites in chrome, in or out of incognito mode, everything runs normally.

This problem started some weeks ago with one site, after instaling a wordpress plugin. Now, other sites in the same hosting begin to have the same problem.

It only happens with firefox, always. It doenst happens with other browsers, never.

Please, can someone help?

I've been lead to believe in previous editions of firefox you could turn off the redirect message and instead just allow firefox to redirect.

However now (as of 112.0.1) i can't find any way to do this. I repeatedly get redirect message and i would prefer the browser just do the redirect instead of having my click a link. I know exactly where the redirect is coming from and i have no problem with it and i don't need it to have a warning.

I recently needed ti reload a Windows 7 backup and then re-upgrade to Windows 10. Now, whenever I open a new FireFox window I get a banner warning from K9 that says "You must log in to this network before you can access the internet." It shows a button "Open network login page." which attempts to go to the K9 page which is long since out of business. I uninstalled the software and re-booted, but still the message appears every time a new FireFox window opens. Before I go the dangerous "regedit" route, is there any way to easily remove this annoying thing?

Good evening, I've some problem with firefox sometime it don't start (if I restart Ububtu 22 kernel 6.0.0 in use firefox start) and some times when I try to save an image it crash an close. Here below you can find the crash code error. Thanks a lot for the support

Hi everyone, I am currently using Firefox "112.0.1 (64-bit)" on Windows 10 "10.0.19045 Build 19045]"

I have problems using almost all Google websites: most of the times they do not load at first attempt, and when they do they do not works properly. As example: Youtube does not load (or the cached version says that there is no internet connection), then after a few attempts it loads but all thumbnails on the home are gray.

On another browser (Edge) all websites works normally.

Using private window has the same problem, I have no extension and no plugin other than OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc. and Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc.. I tried emptying cache and also reinstalling Firefox.

The only fix I found on the web is to disable hardware acceleration from settings. If I disable it and restart the browser, then all websites works normally. Actually I can't see this as fix but as a workaround, since I am using a notebook and I'd like to use my GPU for video decoding and save energy.

Maybe I am missing something? Is there something I can do? Thanks.

Hello ;-)

If i try to watch amazon prime video, Firefox crashes the whole system (no further action possible). Taskmanager does nothing, CPU is on 100%. Badly there is no crash report or Firefox log - maybe because the whole system is freezing completely. Widevine has been loaded correctly.

I tried Opera and there is no problem. I tried also 4 several PCs - always the same. Firefox crashes the whole system, Opera is working without problems. I didn´t try Edge or Chrome - i didn´t want to "rubbish" my system ;-)

Sure, i could use Opera, but ... my favorite is Firefox for all the years ;-) The failure appears with version 1.11 - earlier versions had no problem. I´ve only installed privacy badger and no other plugin or extension. Also DRM and widevine is activated. Reinstalling (after registry and install cleanup) didn´t solve the problem. And, yes, i have all recent updates on Windows 10, graphic card driver and Firefox.

The support of Amazon: "no idea" ;-(

Any suggestions ? ;-)

Best regards
