For years I've used Firefox and the AllAboutBirds.com website with no trouble. A few weeks ago Firefox started freezing up whenever I used the website. The website is for bird identification and has videos, sound clips, comparative photos, etc. FIrefox usually doesn't freeze up immediately when the website opens, only after I've clicked a link or two -- but it doesn't seem to matter which links. I just updated Adobe Flash and that does not help. As noted above, I can use the website with Safari, but I prefer to use Firefox. This does not happen on any other website I've visited.
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks!

In Page Info, what does "DCTERMS:issued" mean - the date/time that page was first published?
I'm trying to establish for legal reasons when a page was first published. I think "DCTERMS:issued" is probably it?

Re: Firefox update to my Windows 8.1 Laptop
I've been comfortable on my computer and online for over a decade but with the new FIREFOX I am lost nothing works - I might as well be a new user as it is.
Currently I AM TOTALLY SCREWED and TICKED OFF. STUPIDLY I installed the NEW FIREFOX update to my computer and it has made my computer so screwed up it is unusable even if I use Windows Internet Explorer.
I don't know everything its done but for starters I can't read my hotmail email. It doesn't open.
I cannot type anything, my keyboard is nonresponsive.
It says I have an AdBlocker that is interfering with the AP that is part of the NEW FIREFOX so I can't COPY any text.
This is just the tip of the iceberg I'm sure there is more wrong aka screwed-up its just since I can't "intereact" I don't know yet.
GMAIL I CAN READ, it still opens but even it is changed even using Internet Explorer.
I can't type anything into OUTLOOK SITE HELP because my keyboard doesn't work in Hotmail - it works in GMail but still the functions are totally screwed up. LIKE cut and paste - No longer can I copy or cut part of an earlier email, it sees the whole thing / email as one whole thing to be copied or not.
WHAT KIND OF INTERNET BROWSER "UPDATE" takes over everything on a computer. Firefox has changed how everything works. Is this some kind of APRIL FOOLS HOAX IN NOVEMBER or malware?
How do I access the RESTORE TO AN EARLIER DATE function?
Outlook / Hotmail which I can't read - it just puts a checkmark as "accessed" SILLY ME - I like to be able to actually READ my email.
The only way I'm able to do anything online is because thankfully I have my APPLE Desktop.
I DIDN'T GIVE FIREFOX THE RIGHT TO CHANGE EVERYTHING ON MY COMPUTER including other programs - this is OUTRAGEOUS.
Firefox on my Mac has a virus. I trashed it and reinstalled but still have the problem. How do I fix this?

Hello, we need help with some update issue. Some time ago we've used web extension auto update. Once we uploaded new version to our host, web extension showed popup and suggested to restart browser. Also, when extension lost focus and popup faded, we called "browser.runtime.reload()" - that forced browser to make immediately check update, also as i know, just after restart, browser did check update, so after these two actions user had last extension version. Few days ago we've notices that these actions stopped working. Neither runtime.reload() nor browser restart don't call check update and now we have to wait some time, when browser decide to check it. Was it temporary bug or our mistake and these shouldn't work(check update) at all? Thank you.

48.0.2 on Mountain Lion 10.8.5. Fullscreen video on the CNN site plays initially, then stops with a circling round arrow. Lately it has started to do this with that video on the side as you scroll down the screen, as well. Very maddening. No problems on other sites. If I cannot fix this quickly and simply I will have to go to Chrome. Updated flash yesterday, no joy. Suggestions welcome. Thank you

My MacPro (note: not MacBookPro) is 10.7.5. Therefore, (according to your instructions where I first started to try updating my Firefox) I cannot update my Firefox (because updating is not available for 10.7.5 but only for 10.9 and up) but must install (I quote) " a secure version of Firefox." Unfortunately, your instructions do not tell me where I can find a secure version of Firefox. I'll keep looking but a hint would be welcome. Thanks in advance.

I have a computer running windows 7 and have no problem creating a firefox sync account or logging in to it.
I have 2 computers running windows 10 and I cannot log into my firefox sync account or even create a new one with a different email address. I keep getting an unexpected error in both instances.
I even uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it........
I checked firefox server status and all is fine.
All versions of firefox I am running is 48.0
Here is my history log......I would hate to downgrade my computers to windows 7 just because of firefox sync,
There has to be something on the back end for this to be happening.

When dragging files from download manager to the desktop (or other folder) the files dont end up there. Instead it creates a .txt file with the name and some linking. Inside the file is a link to the file (in this case file:///home/magnus/Dokument/new_identity-logo-firefox.png). It was not like this before, dragging have been working like expected (moving the file) but now stopped working. The problem is the same if i press "Show all downloads" and try dragging from that windows ("Library").

I am trying to display streaming content from 4 webcams within my local network. This works properly on my Linux Mint box with Firefox 48.0, but does not work on My macbook running OSX El Capitan 10.11.5 on Firefox 50.1.0. Also same problem on my IMac.
The html code is like this...
<object type="application/x-vlc-plugin" data="rtsp://LWK-????:????????@192.168.1.xx:554/img/video.sav" width="500" height="375" id="video1"> <param name="movie" value="rtsp://192.168.1.0/archive/xxxxxxxxxxx"/> <embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" name="video1" autoplay="no" loop="no" width="500" height="375" target="rtsp://LWK-????:????????@192.168.1.???:554/img/video.sav" />
I downloaded Flip4mac, as was advised on a post I found on stackoveflow, but that made no difference.
How do I know which plugin is needed? Searching on extensions, I see nothing for x-vlc-plugin. Is extension same as plugin? What do I download if not Flip4mac?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Joe

After my laptop is discharged, when the browser is turned on, I discovered that all my saved passwords are lost. None of the tips I found through Google did not help (run in safe mode, create a new profile, restore an older version ...).

Hallo I use Firefox 48.0.1 on a MacBook with OS 10.11.6
Since some versions of Firefox, I don't know exactly since when, each time, I open the bookmark library or even if I set or change an existing bookmark, Firefox stops, the spinning wheel is visible and after about 20 seconds Firefox continues to be usable. This issue continues each time I do something with my bookmarks. I found that it is related to Firefox Sync. If I disable Sync, no problems at all. How can I fix this? Firefox is nearly unusable like this, because I depend strongly on the bookmarks. I have around 4000 Bookmarks. I already exported them, deleted all and imported again, no change. On my PC (Windows 8.1 - 64 Bit) I have not at all this problem.
Thanks

PS.: I had to use a Proxy Server from US to get to this support page. I am in germany and there is no real german support page. Only a link to a user forum, where nobody can help if there are real bugs in Firefox like this, e.g. Is there another, maybe easier way, to get to this very support page than to cheat with proxy? Thanks
