Firefox Community Forum

Hello

I kept getting crashed error everytime I open firefox. It prompted me to update which I did and install. I LOST ALL my apps and passwords that was shortcut on firefox. I need that restored as it has a lot of my business access links to sites.

Additionally firefox keeps crashing and giving me error message to restore or close. I click close but I also clicked restore and it still kept on giving me issues. It's causing me a lot of stress.

Please get back to me asap [redacted phone# and email from public community support forum]

When attempting to start Firefox a box appears requesting password to install HELPER. Passwords are not accepted and CANCEL button halts Firefox startup. I have been a Firefox user for 15+ years. Don't want to be using Safari on the Mac. Q

I have had problems with the latest FF for Mac for a week or so. Not opening. I deleted and reinstalled it, and the problem continues. It crashes my system and I have a spinning wheel that required a hard restart. What's going on? Running Tahoe 26.5.2

Hi, I am Soumitra Dutta, an Oxford based entrepreneur and photographer. My Firefox browser suddenly stopped working, and I’m not sure what caused the issue. I’ve tried reopening it, but the problem is still there.

Has anyone experienced a similar problem before?

Regards Soumitra Dutta

By Firefoxwss working great the last time I used it it is the primary search engine for my iPhone 17 as well as my Mac however, when I loaded it today it the screen just said blank. All of my bookmarks are on Firefox. How do I get this fixed quickly? I am, right now being edited. I’m sitting here looking like a fool because I chose to use Firefox rather than Safari or Google. First question they ask me why are you using Firefox. And then, of course, Firefox /x I/ dies all of my bookmarks are on Firefox. Firefox will not open! I have used Firefox for the last nine years. Never had a problem until today when I needed it not to have a problem.

Firefox often interferes with AMD Adrenalin. If features provided by AMD—such as the performance overlay and recording functions—don’t work properly while playing a game, closing and reopening Firefox usually resolves the issue. Also, after installing the latest AMD driver (version 26.6.2) today, a specific game won’t even launch. However, if I close Firefox in this state, the game surprisingly runs without any issues. I’ve long suspected that Firefox has poor compatibility with AMD, but preventing games from running seems to be taking it too far. I hope they will collaborate with AMD to ensure these issues no longer occur

When starting firefox I had 5 windows open. After a MAC notebook restart, I tried to open firefox and then the five pages showed to disapear when I clicked on one - nothing can be seen. On the firefox icon I cannot do anything other than look at "About firefox" to learn that it is up to date. I have no idea what to do to get it started again ... thank you so much for any guidance here

I cannot get into Firefox due to an error message that keeps coming up. Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible.

I have tried deleting and reinstalling it, but it didn't really uninstall completely. I have tried a few suggestions from online, which didn't work. I also tried right clicking on the Firefox symbol and went into some of the different options, but nothing worked for me.
