Firefox Support Forum

Over the past few days, I've noticed that whenever I type something in either the Google search bar or the address bar, the search results never load. The page flashes for a second, then stops working. The Google search engine and Google products, e.g. trying to log into Gmail, are the only things affected by this glitch. However, I can access everything and obtain search results in a Private widow, but not by using the regular browser interface. I've been using Firefox for years, and I've never had this issue. I've cleared the cache and I've tried disabling add-ons. How do I fix this issue?

This is happening every few minutes now. It started right after the 97.0.0 update. The 97.0.1 update doesn't seemed to have helped.

I don't use any browser extensions.

I never saw this issue before, and I have been using Firefox as a primary browser for many years. I'm on a MacBook Air, M1.

Logged into https://www.expedia.com/ the home page tries to open but a second or two later I see a blank, white screen. I "Turned Enhanced protect off" Expedia page still blank I open GOOGLE and Expedia works perfectly

Site page that I have used for years is not loading. Keep getting this error message.

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to www.hamdata.com. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

The site is www.hamdata.com How do I fix this?

So even on a unprotected machine, some webpages VERY slow to load but not all. My internet provider, Virginmedia, is also my email provider and sometimes this email homepage times out. Had the same problem with win 10 and did think, wrongly, that installing win 11 would cure this. It did not. Any ideas on this. A good friend is a computer tech so you can get technical. In `task manger` anti virus etc has been stopped.

The behavior of FireFox saving PDF files has changed. I am using WIN10, FireFox 98.0.1 and have it setup to use windows default application and always ask where to save for PDFs.

BEFORE the problem: The PDF opens in Acrobat Pro IX. After clicking save I would be asked, where to save. I select the location to save the PDF. Then after this, subsequent PDFs downloaded would be saved to the last saved location. This process would repeat for a new website PDF load and save. This is the behavior I want now.

NOW with the problem: The PDF opens in Acrobat Pro IX. 1. Immediately, after a reboot, the save icon on Adobe is grayed out. I select save as and point to the desired directory. 2. For any subsequent PDF opened, the Adobe save icon is available. Files are saved to the desktop.

Please note I believe I once did get a popup asking where to save and I know I selected desktop.  Since that selection I am no longer asked where to save.

Please note I have looked and tried some of the suggestions at: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-download-or-save-files#w_choose-a-different-download-folder

but some of this advice needs to be updated for the new FireFox version--ex no JSON file is found at the file location covered in the advice.

I believe this issue started after the last FireFox update. Please help me restore behavior listed above under “BEFORE the problem”. Thanks.

Since a couple of months I've noticed that my firefox has become veeeeer slow, and takes a lot of time to download facebook content, specially images. The page stalls forever and shows some empty areas with a small description like: "must be an image with people", but the content never loads, ant takes forever to navigate face book.

Any other browser works flawlessly and has no problems at all. The only one that cannot handle facebook is Firefox.

There's a way to solve this issue?

Every time firefox pushes to update my browser when I finally do it causes my browser to crash repeatedly. I can not do anything online. It's frustrating beyond words. how can I delete the update and go back to when my browser was working right. Or how do you make it stop CRASHING??????!!!!!!!

The title already says it all. Whenever i have some sound or video running in any tab, clicking on certain things like other videos or animated stuff in the same tab or another one causes a small interruption in the sound/video. Clicking a lot of times results in sound and video stuttering. I does not appear when i just click another link.

I already tried updating firefox, reinstall firefox, even downgrading firefox. This problem only appears in firefox and only on this device. I would be very thankfull for some advices, because this is really annoying.

Firefox recently stopped working. I tried uninstall/reinstall, removal (name change) of AppData\local\Mozilla, local low and remote folders before installing. All the same result that when I click Firefox, the cursor will start to flicker, the program shows in the task manager but never starts. When the AppData folders were removed, new ones were not created.

The only to changes were that I was given temporary admin privilages on Avecto Privilage Guard and I installed Visual Studio 2022 - removed 2019 as well.

Something changed a couple months ago where Firefox's spell check began only catching about half of my typos. Over the last 15 years I have become used to my browser providing spell checking services, looking for the little red lines to point out my mistakes, so now that this feature has stopped working reliably I am constantly submitting items with embarrassing typos, having to go back and edit almost every single post I make after the fact. Is there any way to get this working properly again? Thanks.

Since the latest update in Firefox, I am forced to compose new messages or reply or forward in a new window in Firefox, which I access with a pop-up window that appears on the page where I previously would simply respond. This is not happening in Edge and only started with the Mozilla 99 update.

I am hitting a rare issue where some requests don't seem to complete (uploading files).

Unsure if the issue is at network level or in the JS code of the website I am using.

What is the best way to troubleshoot those requests that don't seem to complete?

In the Web Developer tools there's nothing under the Timing section.

Thanks

I have since a few weeks errorcodes showing up at my screen whenever i want to visit a website where videocontent is to see( like if you want to visit reddit and watch a video or something like that).I´ve didn´t do or didn´t visit anything special when it came up, it just came and now its there.I´ve also tried different things from the help articles that could solve the problem, didn´t do anything. It says in its message "secure connection failed". The problem is also on every browser, not only on firefox

I downloaded Firefox a while ago and it would work and just a few hours ago I had completely restored my pc to see if it improves issues I had and speed, but the same issues I was having with Firefox are still happening. When first downloaded it runs for maybe 2 seconds then crashes and if you try to re open it, you either cant or see it pop up in the task bar only to go away the next second like a flicker. I've deleted and redownloaded it already and I cant find the crash report on my pc even from the Win + R so I was wondering if anybody ever had an issue like this and how they fixed it.

I began having trouble w/Firefox browser yesterday evening. I submitted details several times. Completed lengthy Win 10 update. Today, Firefox icon in Task Bar is requiring Google log-in? Have no idea why or how to fix.
