Firefox Community Forum

I have a new macbook air running Sequoia 15.3.2, firefox is up to date, my battery which should technically last about 12 hours and I only get 5. Ran through everything with Apple and they said it is a Firefox issues. I don't have any extensions, add on etc. Thoughts?

Apologies, I have to write this on mobile because among other pages Firefox will not open for me now, THIS IS ONE OF THEM. Google is a black square (opens fine in chrome). So are multiple other pages. I can open new tabs, but clicking on them to actually navigate to them does nothing. Has anyone else had this problem???? I don't want to go back to chrome but Firefox is completely unusable right now.

Still waiting for an answer to the above question. Why does the page jump back to the top when I want to open a link in a new tab? The link is halfway down a page but when I do a right/left click it jumps and invariably opens the link a few articles above the actual article I want to read. This had been happening for months now and nobody has bother to give a solution.

Hi, I ran a Firefox update which I guess I downloaded yesterday but now Firefox won't fully load new tabs with my usual view of stories. I don't know if that's the only part that's broken or what....I'm not geeky enough to say. The "thought provoking stories" section just looks like its in a long process trying to connect with something.... all other windows I'd left pinned and recent activity shortcuts at the bottom of a new tab work.

Hi all. I recently did a manual clear of cookies and afterwards, I've seen two strange issues pop up.

The first was while I was booking hotels on Expedia, it would not allow me to complete the booking where earlier in the same day it did. It would simply do nothing when I clicked the final button. I swapped over to chrome and it worked totally fine, so it was not the sites issue.

The other is in images. I will do an image search, and typically on the big wall of thumbnails, if you click one, it will have a preview of the image at a larger size and the link to the source site, but now it does nothing if I click the image, and I have to right click and opening in new tab to use the image to go to the site. This can be temporarily fixed by clicking the padlock in the address bar, clearing cookies on the site and reloading, but then as soon as I do a new image search, it's back to the unresponsive clicks.

I have ublock origins plugin and Malwarebytes browser guard running,but have never had an issue due to those before and made no changes with them. Embedded video still works totally fine, it's only online purchases and image search that I've seen problems.

I have cleared cookies manually before without this issue. I have refreshed the installation and it has not fixed it. I'm really not sure what got knocked loose, but I am sure that is when things got weird on me.

Hello, ever since I upgraded MacOS to 15.3.1 and Firefox to 135.0.1 the top menu bar seems to disappear. I do not know which is the culprit, but on MacRumors (https://www.macrumors.com/) you'll find several others with the same experience.

My personal observation is that it seems to happen on various Silicon hardware (tried 3) and when multiple tabs are active.

The bug is no showstopper, but to proceed you got to click on the (invisible) menu bar in the upper left. Thanks for reading.

JOOP!

Hi, for some reason firefox has begin crashing this past week, when I'm on Soundcloud and I press the play button. Today it also crashes when I try to by a bus ticket on Flixbus.dk, this has not happened before.

I looked up the troubleshooting page concerning crashes and I tried to go on the sites in troubleshoot mode, it still crashes.

I have the reports here: bp-df051f75-8783-417f-98c1-f75b90250325

bp-c87b457c-be5c-409a-87cf-ad9f30250325

I believe the first one is for Soundcloud, the second one is for Flixbus.

Thank you!

Videos over a certain resolution won't play on Twitter/X. Anything 1080 and over vertical won't play. I get audio, but not video. If I use Maxthon (Chrome) I can see the video. I've downloaded the video files and those that are 1080 vertical are the ones that won't play in Firefox. In the picture I'm sending, you can see that Firefox is stuck on the very beginning of the video and the Maxthon video has started, hence the subtitles. Is there a setting in Firefox that will allow me to watch these videos? Thank you.

Bonjour

Depuis 72h Video DownloadHelper ne fonctionne plus du tout sur mon PC. Il ne détecte plus aucune vidéo quelque soit le site, et même si la vidéo est en cours de lecture. Je suis pourtant titulaire d'une licence est je n'ai eu aucun souci avec auparavant.

J'ai tenté de le désinstaller et de de réinstaller sans succès

Merci pour votre aide

Hello:

Over the past few weeks I notice Firefox lagging in performance -- e.g., pages taking too long to load. Simple profiling tells me that most time seems to be going in "WebRender display list", and "DisplayList building". Sometimes, it is so slow that I have to use other browsers.

Any suggestions?

This Morning when I tried to login as normal Firefox cam up with a crash report, so I restarted my Windows 10 think this would send the report but it came up again, and every time I tried to start, and every time I try to sign in it say can't sign in due to unknown Error, and I can't get into my emails, so I will not be able to see your replies until you have fixed the problem, Please help me ASAP.

Hi there folks,

recaptcha pop up window does not appear even though I know its there (in comparison to chrome). The result is that the main window may be slightly greyed out or look normal but I cannot move on in the dialogue (for example when I have completed a form and want to submit).

Very frustrating because: 1. I have to move over to chrome where there are no such issues 2. I am increasingly having to default to chrome which I don't want to do

Any help most welcome! Copper 102

I had 128.7 esr installed and was getting crashes and upgraded to 128.8 esr and it was worse. Down graded to 128.0 esr and it seems to be working just fine so I will not be doing any further upgrades.
