A bit of background, I have been working on systems since the Commodore Vic 20, so I'm not 'new' or would typically be helpless as many are if they have system problems.

Over the last week I decided to format my Mac and re-install the operating system. I have a lot of graphics design that I will be doing for an unknown period of time. I have over the years collected many free fonts and I started installing them about 5 days ago. I don't believe my installing fonts wouldf have affected anything within Firefox, but Firefox is the only browser that I'm having this problem with. I checked Safari and google displays everything as it should as well; my graphics deisgn software forums are displaying fine. I have not used google for anything during the period that I was installing the fonts, so I don't know exactly when this started but yesterday I discovered it.

I tried going to the menu on the top right hand corner -> Help -> More Troubleshooting Info -> Refresh Firefox. I then went into MacCleaner Pro -> Clear Cache and Clear Purgable Data. Then restarted the machine. No change.

I then saved my passwords and bookmarks, then uninstalled Firefox using MacCleaner Pro and then went to Remove Remaining files.

Downloaded a new copy of Firefox and the problem still exists.

I tried changing the theme to others. Went to Settings -> General -> Language and Appearance. Set theme to dark, then back to automatic. Changed the main font from (Default) Times to Times New Roman and back to (Default Times) ... but still this problem exists...

Help... Please and thank you.

I used to be able to log in to a website, but lately I get the following message: " Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to www.connectnetwork.com. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem." If I use another route to reach the website, I can't login due to getting the same message. I have talked to their tech support staff and they say the problem is on my end. I tried reaching the website and logging in from another computer which also uses Firefox and was successful. So, how can I fix my computer so that I can reach the website and log in? Thanks.

Why Firefox is unable to bring customising options for homepage and toolbar for mobile users in all these years despite other browsers upping their game with user feedbacks and newer browsers bringing exactly what the users want?

Big phones, too many bookmarks, can't remove or hide home button icon on URL bar, no download manager, no options to add home shortcuts or speed dials on Firefox homepage no navigation buttons at bottom, no DNS, is this Firefox in 2024 and 2025?

Hi all,

with FF 130 on Windows 10, I'm encountering an issue that pops up spuriuosly during the last years. After playing video/audio content, the browser fails to release the audio streaming device, thus preventing the computer to go into sleep mode.

When I restart FF, the stream is released This has happened for other users on previous versions, but seems to have been fixed in more recent releases. But now the issue is back - at least for me.

Any hints or workarounds?

I have been using Firefox on my HP laptop for about 2 to 3 years. The current version is 130.0 which auto downloaded about a week or 2 ago. Now I am unable to login to my eTrade account unless I remove cache. The URL for the site is https://us.etrade.com/home/welcome-back. When I first click it, a tab pops up which is labeled Investing, Trading and Retirement with a dot on that tab that continues moving left to right to indicate it's trying to bring up the login page. It never times out. I noticed while it's doing that, there is verbiage down on the bottom left corner of the screen that says "Read c.evidon.com" which never goes away. If I go to Firefox settings and delete cache, the login screen will pop up after I restart Firefox. So I can end up logging in, but once I logout of eTrade and try to come back in, the same problem occurs. Never had this issue before but now is somewhat of a pain every time I need to get to my eTrade account. I also have Brave on my laptop and I don't have that issue when using it.

Message is: Media could not be loaded, either because server or network failed or because format is not supported.

IMO not a network issue......

When I receive an email in Outlook that contains a hyperlink, I am unable to use it. When I click onthe link, Firefox opens a new Window (even when one is already running). The only tab on the new window is my default tab. The original hyperlink does not open. (Windows 11 and Firefox all up to date).

1) It is fine if I use Edge or Chrome as my default browser. 2) I have disabled all add-ons, and restarted (and rebooted) Firefox. Same result.

I have searched the community/known issues atc but none seem to specifically show this sort of behaviour.
