On several web pages, when i try to log into the accounts i have on those websites or account creations, when i try to click "Continue" or "Log in" or what ever may be the case to actually finish the process, the button will not actuate.

This will happen and cause the page to stall, not load, which is especially bad on a page with a download link or if it's a search engine. The highlighted part of the attached image is an example of which part of the URL flashes incredibly fast - appearing and disappearing.

I just recently had an instance of the url bar typing the same word and deleting it over and over again at the end of the address. I was watching the word "drawers" appear as if I was typing it myself, letter by letter.

Refreshing doesn't help and will refresh the previous page because the faulty link will carry over to the next page if it's on a search engine for example.

hi, I tried on more time to switch fro Chrome to Firefox, but hit another snag. Some websites allow you to read more contents if you turn off Java script. On Chrome, there is an easy way to block Java script for individual web sites, under Privacy&Security, Site settings, but not on Firefox. How can I for example block Java script for https://www.energyvoice.com or https://www.nytimes.com.

If this does not reach the correct department, please forward or let me know how to contact them. Thank you, Jon Borresen j.borresen@outlook.com

Hello all

There was a pop-up on my Mac'S Firefox asking if I allow Firefox access to my local network devices. I clicked on 'No' And obviously now I can't access for example my router's webpage or any other webpage fromo any devices on my local network. How I can switch it back? Internet access is working fine.

Many thanks, Bogdan

Hello,

If the phone is not used for a while, it takes a very long time to open a page in Firefox. The bar immediately goes to about 25% and hangs. When it finally starts, it works. Sometimes it hangs during use, but usually the problem occurs after a long period of inactivity.

What I do know:

  • The problem does not occur with any other browser or application.
  • The problem occurs on different smartphones from different manufacturers running different versions of Android.
  • Deleting and reinstalling Firefox cleanly (without any add-ons) does not help.
  • Same problem over Wi-Fi as over cellular.
  • Turning Firefox off and on again usually does not help.

I installed Waterfox and for a while there was no problem at all. Then it appeared. I noticed that at least in Waterfox, the problem does not occur in private mode.

This is an unresolved issue that has been discussed before. https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1416241

I've noticed that when video media begins to play, it often suddenly slows down the entire browser's processing ability and cuts to strange visual glitches limited to just the video window, usually green and pink pixelated glitches. This doesn't happen on YouTube, nor does it happen when I use other browsers like Edge. I'm on Windows 11, using the latest Firefox version, with Strict privacy settings and a reliable and simple adblock. Had the same setup on a previous Windows 10 laptop and did not have these issues. It's getting frustrating and is impacting my experience with this browser across multiple websites. I refuse to switch back to sketchy, predatory browsers like Chrome and Edge, so I hope this can be fixed, either on my end or on Mozilla's. Thanks! (Attached a screenshot of the visual glitches.)

What is the easiest way to import the current state of Safari into Firefox? Would like to create the same set of windows, with each window having the same set of tabs, if possible. I did a bit of googling but no success with what I found.

I really want to avoid manually creating all the same things one by one by one...

I'm not talking about importing all the history and passwords and other stuff - the actual windows and tabs.

Thanks...

-bob

ps - would like it to work with current release of Firefox, aka 134.02 on Sequoia and Ventura versions of macOS, as well as Firefox 115.19.0esr on an older macOS Mojave system.

I need a default search string in order to add Firefox as a search option. Directions on the app advise how to add a search option, but a default search string is required and I haven't been able to figure out what use. https://firefox.com/search is the best I can guess. Any help for an old man is appreciated.

Lately more than once, i face pages which does not load at all makes me spend time checking from server side, and its end working normally with Chrome, but not with firefox, for instance i ran a hashivault in ec2 , i am able to access it using chrome, but with firefox it never open giving error:

The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

please advise, thanks.

This is a message I sent to the Zoom.us help staff a few days ago:

"Very often when I go to my Zoom tab on the Firefox browser and wish to schedule another meeting, even if I have recently (within and hour or so) I will be sent to the Sign In page. Then 4 out of 5 times, when I sign back in the little waiting wheel will spin and spin and I can't reenter to set up the meeting. But several times I have gone to the "sign in with google" icon below. This brings me almost immediately to my account and I am able to proceed. Why is this becoming a problem for me?? It seems that a sign-in with my password should be the most stable mode!"

They advised clearing my cookies in the Zoom cache, but this didn't help! I opened my Chrome browser and had no troubles signing in, but I am not a Chrome fan and I <never> use Edge!

I love Firefox and Mozilla. I started using Mosaic on my Apple IIGS back in the early 90s and then went to Netscape. I have never liked MicroSoft's way of copying Apple and the other innovators and then pretending that they invented it all themselves!!

I just wanted you to know of this issue. I wanted to forward my emails with Zoom, but could not find a viable email address to your support staff. Keep up the good work!!

I work from an Acer laptop running Windows 10 Home.
