Firefox Support Forum

Hello!

Is there a way to sync my reading lists between my devices just like bookmarks? I mark some pages on my ipad, but they dont appear on my iphone’s reading list.

If that’s not a feature yet, will it be?

Thank you, Noemi

When I click a link in a Gmail msg, it opens in the same tab as Gmail. The default for Firefox is supposed to open a link in a new tab. I don't want to lose the open Gmail tab when I open the link. How can I change the behavior so the link opens in a new tab?

In Firefox, the mouse becomes partially unresponsive to elements in the browser and on web pages. This happens after 15-30 minutes after starting up the browser. Common symptoms include:

- Unable to drag and drop elements properly, including text after highlighting it. - Sometimes, the mouse continues to hold elements while dragging. Pressing ESC temporarily fixes this. - Dropdown menus on websites do not drop down when hoovering over them - Other items on websites don't display items when hoovering over them

I have tried:

- Different mouses, including my laptop's trackpad - A Firefox fork, namely Waterfox, but it still occurs - Limited testing with other browsers. No problem occurs - Limited testing on desktop. No problem occurs - Entering Troubleshooting Mode on Firefox - Clearing cookies and cache - Reinstall Firefox (including installing from command line instead of the snap store) - Updated Firefox - Refreshed Firefox - About:Processes doesn't show anything using more than 10-15% of CPU at any one time - Limited testing with a new Firefox profile. No problem occurs - Disabled WebGL and Hardware Acceleration.

Temporary fix: Restarting Firefox, but the problem re-occurs shortly after use.

Using Ubuntu.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

vpn plugin on one browser won't connect to internet so i have to stop using it to go anywhere. if i use the vpn for the whole system, using a firefox browser doesn't give me clean connections so i can't get to some sites. any suggestions? do they know about this? i noticed in my settings i am now using a custom setting for tracking and a reinstall of the plugin said it now had to have access to 'private windows' which i've never had to do before. do i need to switch to the chromium browsers? cheers in advance.

I am having the same issue as in these questions/bugreports, but with version 102.15.1 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1285436 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1278453 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1638675

I tried to downgrade to 82.0.3 (this version is mentioned in bug report 1638675) and it works well.

I am using the following webpages with animation for the performance test: 1) http://www.java2s.com/example/javascript-book/testing-browser-animation-performance.html 2) http://www.java2s.com/example/javascript-book/testing-browser-animation-performance-demo-d2dff.htm

Here is what I know so far... - '--safe-mode' or 'layers.gpu-process.enabled' do not make any difference; - the second webpage gives better performance (comparable to 82.0.3), so the issue can be related to the text+animation combination; - even if I scroll the first webpage to move the animation out of view, the performance is still bad; - looks like it depends on window size (1st webpage)

Ever since FireFox updated to the latest version I'm constantly having Tabs crash within Firefox. The following message comes up: GAH. Your tab just crashed..

Cut /copy and paste, nightmare!!!

what is going on? Cut / copy and paste should be easy, its not. Open a new tab, google homepage, and unable to paste the item I had just copied from another tab, it will only work when I go back to original and recopy? Too time consuming this issue.

I can't turn off lazy loading. I set the following about:config settings to "false":

browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand browser.sessionstore.restore_tabs_lazily browser.sessionstore.restore_pinned_tabs_on_demand

Nothing changes. When I start Firefox, it simply won't load all tabs. How do I fix this?

I have to load my bank's website several times before I can sign in.

I cannot edit a dashlane item.

I am not great at using a computer. Thinking I should just change browsers. Very unhappy that I can't reach out to the company to resolve my issues.

Can I get an explanation for what this does

link text

Is it supposed to do something different than the windows taskbar mouse thumbnail

link text

I saw no difference when enabled.

Updated to SONOMA yesterday. Since then, with VPN (PIA) on, Firefox will not connect to any website, or websites do not appear normal. Even signing up to post this question here without the VPN on took longer (BAD GATEWAY; Error; No Access) for whatever reason... This never happened before.

Is anyone else having issues with thew new operating system SONOMA, with VPN and without, on Firefox?

Help

/edit: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to Firefox section as you have macOS.

Hail:

System Software: Win11Ent_x64 v22H2 (b: 22621.2283) MFF v18.5.0.0

No matter what I try, my MFF keeps crashing at startup. For some reason, it tries to open 2 pages the windows at the same time, which is illogical. I deleted firstly my: sessionstore.jsonlz4 logins.json to no avail.

Then I tried to open MFF through elevated CMD with the command: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -safe-mode Again, 2 windows pop crashing immediately.

I do not understand why all of the sudden, it tries to open 2 different instances at once. This makes no sense. I am out of ideas, having tried many an option found on Google, but which none give me a solution.

If anyone has an idea, I would be quite darn thankful. This MSEdge crap that I need to use now is not quite my thing.

Thank you. Ke'Ylan

right click menu copy not clickable,cant copy but when I hit ctrl + c and copy something first then i can copy within the right menu fine with the same site, and no this is not a site issue chromium works just fine.

Good afternoon. For the last day or so my Firefox has been running slower than normal. It takes longer to load my home page than normal, for one example. Actually it takes a little longer than it had to load most web pages. I tried opening the same pages on Edge to make sure it is not just an internet issue and Edge works fine.

I am also having an issue with settings. When I open settings, privacy, and navigate to saved logins before when the list would automatically populate it now takes almost 12 seconds to load all my logins.

I did try to run the browser in troubleshoot mode and the behavior did not change.

I am running Firefox 118.0.1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
