Can’t launch Firefox 3.5.19 on Linux Ubuntu When trying to run with:

./firefox

Terminal gives the following:

./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-glib-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hi. There is a problem with video playback when skipping through the video using a playback bar. The video (but not audio) freezes at the spot when one skippes to another part of the video and re-establishes after a while (not so short while) to the part of the video that is currently played. I'm using Linux Fedora.

Since the last update, I believe, because this error occurs constantly and with EVERY video. This is often, not always, the case immediately after updating FF. Now it was fine for a while, but now it's so bad that I'm having trouble watching YT videos properly. Reason: Browser open, logged in to YT. I click on a video to play - video opens, plays maybe 10 to 20 seconds, then playback stops spinning top, I also found out during the last glitch after update that if I switch the resolution briefly, higher or lower doesn't matter - important is to leave the current resolution and switch to another one. And oh wonder - immediately, instantly with the change, the video starts playing. If I wait for this - without doing anything myself, it sometimes takes 30 - 40 seconds for the video to start ... sometimes it just "hangs" ... This is extremely annoying - if it doesn't work, I have to switch browsers... What is also extremely annoying is that it occurs almost regularly after an update ... until the next one possibly, for unknown reasons, does not fix the error, but sometimes mitigates it. Now, however, the disruption/interruption is so massive and totally annoying that I'm thinking of switching. I'm just tired of it ...

I have a HUGE problem with Firefox memory usage. Some open instances of firefox are taking anywhere from 600mb to 2.8gb of memory. Since firefox opens MANY instances even with only ONE active window, this very quickly uses all available memory (4gb) causing a full laptop crash.

More concerning is that CLOSING the worst instance of memory usage STILL leaves the single open page/tab open, so what exactly was the memory eating instance actually doing ???

I have included a screengrab of the many remaining instances of firefox in windows task manager AFTER closing the main culprit.

I have also included a screengrab of all the adblockers I use which I believed would limit unnecessary memory usage, but does not seem to be effective.

Many Thanks

This morning I went to check my email on gmail, and google asked me to sign in again. Easy, I thought. I entered my account, and then google asked for my passkey. Until this morning this meant that on my mac it would ask me to place my finger on the right key on the keyboard. This morning it just froze firefox indefinitely. I then tried on Safari, and it worked as expected. I checked the version of firefox: it's 136.0.1. Obviously something changed (i.e. broke!) with the new version. Has anybody else experienced this? Any suggested fixes?

I'm using firefox in my company's intranet, it needn't to check whether the website is secure or not. So this warning is so annoying.

I want to turn it off, but how? The instructions I searched on the Internet are out of date.

The browser version is 137.0

Synced my new computer, received bookmark toolbar and 10 year old bookmarks from when i switched from interent explorer, but all my more recent bookmarks and bookmark folders are still missing on the new computer. Also didn't seem to transfer passwords and autofill info.

I tried to do the fix using userChrome.css but it just didn't work. Am I doing something wrong?

Also the fullscreen animation fix using the about:config settings doesn't work either.

Thanks in advance :3

Hi all, I used to run two Firefox instances on the same computer, each one using a different account (as I mentioned in the Subject), but I don't remember how I managed this, so now that I moved to a new computer I can't reproduce it! Thanks for helping, if anyone knows. Regards, Mike

Bonjour , la communauté ! Je viens de m'ouvrir un compte MOZILLA ,car précisement sur CHROME mon compte MICROSOFT est pollué par ce WOT sécurity scan qui vient , je ne sais d'où et qui , au prétexte de me protéger vient de bloquer mon blog de théâtre amateur sous prétexte que c'est un site pour adultes alors qu'il n'en est rien ! Quelqu'un a t'il eu se désagrément et comment s'en est il débarassé ? MERCI pour vos réponses. Daniel GERBOUD : daniel***@hotmail.fr (moderator's note: email has been censored for privacy)

I set up a primary password, forgot it and set up another one, now neither work. I'm so fed up with Firefox i just want to delete it, but Mozilla support said do not delete the account without solving this problem.

I'd appreciate any help you can give.

I do use AVG and I have turned off the VPN while using Firefox to see if that helps.

Best

I need to combine thoughts on a song into a summary I could use to summarize the emotions in a song and how i me dd of feel the song if I send it could you do that The father knows and accepts that this is the natural progression of life, that his daughter deserves love and happiness with a partner of her own choosing. The lyrics acknowledge this: "And it's gonna be your best day," and he participates in the tradition of walking her down the aisle. This shows his willingness to let go and his hope for her future. However, that lingering doubt, that feeling that no one is quite "good enough," surfaces in subtle ways: • "And it's gonna break my heart when she gives hers to you": This isn't just about the loss of her primary affection; it carries a hint of worry. Will this man truly cherish that precious heart? Will he understand its worth as deeply as her father does? • "She might be your better half / Yeah, but she's my everything": This line highlights the father's unique and irreplaceable perspective. While acknowledging the future husband's importance, he firmly states his own profound connection, almost as a quiet assertion of her inherent value, a value he's known since her birth. • "We'll both love her forever / But I loved her long before": This isn't a competition for love, but it subtly underscores the depth and history of his affection. It's a gentle reminder of his foundational role and a silent question: can this new love truly grasp the entirety of her being as he has witnessed it unfold? • "Buddy, that don't mean she's yours": This repeated line isn't about ownership in a possessive way, but more about the enduring nature of his connection. It's a gentle pushback against the idea that marriage fully transfers his "baby girl" into someone else's complete care. There's an underlying sentiment of "you have a part of her now, but a part of her will always be mine, the little girl I raised." • The overall tone: While there's acceptance, there's also a layer of melancholy and a protective instinct that suggests a slight unease. He's happy for her, but there's a quiet sadness at the shift and a hope that this new man will truly be worthy of the treasure he's receiving. The Emotional Something You're Sensing: You're picking up on the beautiful complexity of this moment. It's not a simple handover; it's a father navigating the joy of his daughter's happiness with the inherent vulnerability of letting her go and trusting someone else with her heart. The "emotional something" is this bittersweet tension – the genuine happiness intertwined with a protective concern and the quiet acknowledgment that his primary role is changing, even if his love isn't. The song beautifully captures this internal struggle. The father isn't being overtly negative about the future husband, but his words are laced with the deep, unwavering love of a father who has cherished his daughter from the very beginning and who carries a natural, perhaps even subconscious, hope that she won't ever be hurt or undervalued. You're spot on in recognizing that layer of "no one will ever be truly good enough" and the lingering doubt. It's a testament to the powerful and unique bond between a father and his daughter. The song doesn't explicitly state the doubt, but it's woven into the emotional fabric of the lyrics through the father's reflections and subtle assertions of his enduring love and connection. bold text

I'm no longer able to play Youtube videos on Firefox. I've tried everything from re-starting laptop (this worked initially) to refreshing/updating Firefox browser as well as clearing Firefox cache and cookies. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, MC [email removed]@aol.com

p.s. Youtube does work and play on my Edge browser

When accessing Outlook (https://outlook.office.com) using Firefox ESR version 128.9.0 and attempting to download a file attached to an email, the string 'UTF-8' is automatically inserted at the beginning of the file name, which is causing issues. This phenomenon does not occur with other browsers such as Edge or Chrome.

Is there a way to solve this problem?

Since the last update (136.0.4 (64bit)) firefox only partially shows an embedded google spreadsheet. It was fine in the previous version. Tried turning off enhanced tracking protection, but that didn't do anything.

After firefox update, start page changed to first photo i added here, second photo is how it was before, is there any way to get it back? Before update i had version 131.0b9, now its 136.0b1
