I am running Firefox 52.9.0 (32-bit), Win XP PRO SP3 on several computers and only my desktop has this problem.
Youtube videos embedded in other pages do not work and only blank space is displayed but if I go to Youtube the videos play correctly. This only happens in one computer. In other computers running same Firefox 52.9.0 (32-bit), Win XP PRO SP3 this problem does not happen.
I guess it might be some configuration problem.

Trying to allow a manufacturers' system scan after suffering longstanding desktop issues but before this can happen I have to download their support assist launcher. So the problem is, the download is blocked after the run/save window with another saying unknown publisher and so refuses to start downloading. The manufacturer says check internet connection. It's fine Now I've allowed the name of the support launcher in firewall via exceptions but it still won't load. Even tried it with firewall turned off. The download Icon TzsetupSfx, is shown in the downloads folder along with its file version 1.2.0.715 and name of publisher. So what can I do to get the download accepted by Firefox. I'm running 52.7 in win XP 3 pro. The manufacturers' URL is a www.

For some reason I can't figure out, this site https://www.machinemart.co.uk/ no longer works with Firefox. It was working fine last week. The site was updated on 8th February. I phoned the company who said there are no problems they know of. My PC only has Firefox so I tried a different PC which also has IE as well; on that one the site loads fine with IE but again nothing except a blank screen with Firefox. I have hundreds of sites in my Bookmarks and all except this one work fine. If you can figure out what's gone wrong I should be most grateful! Thanks. Attached is a screenshot of the Element Inspector.

I have Win XP SP3 and FF 52.5.2, Since installing FF 52.5.2 esr and the coincidence of Norton withdrawing its toolbar my Firefox became very sluggish and malfunctioned at times by not allowing me to type into my FF home page search bar (Google) and bringing up my Bookmarks list instead. Consequently I refreshed Firefox and at the moment it seems to have helped. I haven't had a malfunction since (touch wood).
What I would like to know is if I decided to uninstall my FF altogether and reinstall with 52,5,2 esr is that a complete version of Firefox, I ask this because my current Firefox in the Control Panel shows a size of 116 mb and the FF 52.5,2 setup is 43.3.mb.

About 1 week ago, Firefox started to randomly and suddenly shut down. It typically happens once, max twice a day and when it happens, it closes all open tabs without giving any warning and without showing any error or crash report. The shut down is triggered by a click, typically a click to open a link, or open a new tab - that is, it does not shut down by itself. Firefox does not reopen by itself, you must reopen it. When it reopens, it goes back to the latest situation prior to the shut down event, ie, it reopens all closed tabs and the closed web links - as if it were a crash. I did not find any particular pattern (ie, websites, time of the day, open apps, amount of time online, etc) - it appears rather random. No other issues reported - slow system, unwanted downloads, opening unwanted links, etc
EVENTS HAPPENED RECENTLY THAT MAY BE RELATED 1. My AV Provider (Bitdefender) sent me a message saying that it is about to stop supporting my OS (Win XP) 2. Yesterday another one of my AV shields (Malwarebytes Antiexploit) reported that an exploit code was blocked in Firefox, but without giving more details 3. Yesterday morning my PC asked me to log in by clicking on my user name. The thing is, I have never activated this option, as the PC is set to go directly onto the desktop, without asking to click on usernames, or typing passwords. After yesterday, it did not do it again.
WHAT I HAVE DONE - Run a full scan with Malwarebytes Antimalware - no issues found - Checked if all the installed plugins were up to date - no issues found - Opened Firefox in safe-mode - currently checking if the issue persists - Checked the Firefox crash log - no crash reported
OVERVIEW OF MY SYSTEM AND APPS - OS: Win XP SP3 32 Bit. Updates are still coming, mostly for MS Apps (Excel, Word, etc) - Browser: Firefox 52.3.0 32 Bit - AV running in the backgound: Bitdefender Free 1.0.21.1109 updated today; Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit Beta 1.10.1.24 updated - AV on-demand: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free 2.2.1.1043 updated - Plugins: as per list below
I initially suspected an exploit/ malware, but did not find an evidence as of now. Course of action suggested? Thanks.
Firefox believes that a certificate from one site belongs to another site

Hi,
I own the following website: http://antarkia.training
It is a private site of my business where we use an e-Learning platform named Moodle.
For years, I've used Firefox to acces it, including today in the morning.
But some hours later, I can't acces it, because Firefox "thinks" it is using a secure connection (https), and it is not "well configured".
When I check the error information, I find this (I'm translating from Spanish):
antarkia.training uses an unvalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: training.uwpd.wisc.edu, www.training.uwpd.wisc.edu Code error: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN
The domain https://training.uwpd.wisc.edu/ also uses a Moodle platform, that I checked some days ago.
If I add the exception to Firefox, instead of seeing the "antarkia.training" Moodle webpage, I see the "training.uwpd.wisc.edu" Moodle webpage.
I've cleared the cache, cookies, etc., as well as all the exceptions I've created in Firefox, through the advanced options of the configuration (preferences) area.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
PS If I usea another browser (Google Chrome, Opera, SeaMonkey), everything works well).

Hi there Mozilla Support:
The other day I'm been having issues with FF. It's mainly focused on Facebook videos NOT playing at all but just loading and sometimes just blank. The issue is just Facebook videos because if I go to youtube then all videos will still work. I've done countless troubleshooting steps which is why I'm here now:) Anyhow this is what I've done so far:
1)Disabled ALL FF addons as well as individual addons to seclude any incompatibilities but still no videos
2)Restarted FF in safe mode AND REFRESH FIREFOX but still no success
3)I'm assuming that Adobe Flash could be the culprit however I've COMPLETELY UNINSTALLED (PROPER UNINSTALLATION THAT I FOLLOWED ON ADOBE'S WEBSITE) flash and reinstalled Version 17, 21, 23 and the most recent version of FLASH 25.0.0.71 but still no answer
4) Updated my Nvidia Display driver from Nvidia's site but still no answer
5)Downloaded Flash Video player (ADD ON THAT FORCES SITE TO PLAY MEDIA WITH FLASH) from Mozilla add on site, installed, but still no Facebook videos loading
I'm still running XPSP3 but unfortunately based on my work software, XP is only compatible with that software which is why I'm still using the OS. Obviously for browser purposes I've ALWAYS USED FF since I was in high school:) I just love it in terms of speed and functionality however this past week has been a drag with Facebook videos not loading. I DO NOT want to switch to another browser. I still believe there's a light at the end of the tunnel with FF:)
NOTE: I'm not sure if this contributes to the problem however a couple of days before I did a few things:
a)There was the WannaCry ransomware bug (don't worry I wasn't affected by it) and I did get a patch from Microsoft for my XP machine. I installed it and it was successfully installed in my program list. I also tried tampering with the media plugins in FF's about:config. However I thought if I refreshed FF then this should set all media plugins and others to their DEFAULT values.
Hi cor-el:
I went to the prompt you told me to do and kinda found something interesting. Every time I play a FB video and go to Tools> Web Developer > Web Console, it comes up with an error message saying something about .mp4 playback.
This is weird because I recently installed ALL codecs from K-Lite codec pack which I'm assuming includes codecs such as .mp4, .ogg, .webm, etc., Please find an attached pic of the problem and get back to me asap as I've not been able to view ANY videos,
Hi Cor-el:
I also tried the second solution you told me to do (Primetime Content Decryption Module) however the videos still don't play.
Another thing I tried was to update to the LATEST version of FF for WinXP which I believe is the ESR version 52. Still after going to Facebook and logging into my account the videos just go blank with the error shown in the attached pic.
As a temp fix I recently installed Chrome. Apparently Chrome has no issue playing the videos but then again Chrome has all their plugins built on. I never liked Chrome and never will but like I said as a temp fix I'm just using it to view my videos. I WOULD PREFER Firefox and I just don't know what the issue is! Please get back to me when you get the chance
P.S I wasn't sure if the 'replies' function as I haven't from you guys in almost a day so that's why I'm placing the replies inside the original question. Hopefully this helps:)
Anyhow there's also an attachment (jpg) file of the issue I'm having and I hope that you guys can help with the Facebook issue
Regards,
Stan

session manager crashes almost as soon as FF starts

This error message came up after just a few minutes of FF running. It had just crashed and I rebooted. I'm using XP SP3 and I know I have more tabs than I probably should have opened. Problem is as I work down the line getting rid of them S M is not updating. This time the session that restored was from months ago. I have been bookmarking so all is not lost. If I disable S M ( This Just In: The session/window data is corrupted: undefined(undefined) ). will sessionstore take over? The only problem I had with sessionstore was it only saved one back-up. Tired, I made the mistake of thinking the New Tab that pops up when FF starts was an error, having set FF to open all the previous tabs, I quickly shut it down to save my tabs. knowing no better I killed my only chance of restoring my tabs when I came to my senses and reopened FF to find out if there was anyway to restore my tabs. Ever since I have been looking for a better solution. But it seems that Session Manager is not it. SessionSaver worked, but it's not around anymore. I have a one terabyte drive so memory should not be a problem. So. If I disable Session Manager will sessionstore take over? Otherwise How can I get off this merry go round? Thanks

Earlier tonight I set up a Firefox account (I've been a loyal user of the browser 10+ years), and everything worked fine. When I tried to log in to Sync it produced the above result. After waiting well over an hour for it to actually log in, I decided to delete the account and create it directly from the Sync page, but the same result occurred.

This is not technically a PROBLEM per se , but hopefully more of a possible SOLUTION for a general problem, for some users anyway.
I had been fighting a problem with FireFox updates (I thought) having disabled my Cut-and-Paste ability from practically any webpage to my word processing products (like "Microsoft's Word"). The Cut-and-Paste feature would work if pasted to Window's Notepad, but not to Word. After lots of searching, I found (by accident) a feature in the Environment Backup Extension (FEBE) AddOn feature for Firefox to be causing the problem (for me). Using the "about:config" feature, I searched for "clipboard". I then reset (toggled) the "extensions.febe.copyToClipboard" from "false" to "true". The problem went away. I don't know what issue this may be affecting in the AddOn, but I can do more without FEBE than I can Cut-and-Paste not working.

Dear sirs, In my computer is running Windows XP, for example, to be able to use old AutoCAD software, I do not want to change, but I have downloaded the servicepack3 to it and then using Firefox, right from the time I connect,a variety of annoying ads and even pages loaded up, I do not even clicked on it. Initially, I thought that a virus might have infected my computer, I think this was solved. After that, I started to use the Opera browser and under it was not be made these very annoying, disturbing phenomena, so I think that Mozilla Firefox is under an attack on side and I wanted to indicate it to You.
