Any advice?

Pull requests on shavar-prod-lists are not being merged and pulled in Firefox to update domain blacklist that is causing site breakage https://github.com/mozilla-services/shavar-prod-lists/pulls.

At LinkedIn we are building a new page lnkd.in/interstitial that is breaking in firefox strict mode. To get this fixed we got the disconnect's list updated but their pull request is not being merged in shavar-prod-lists repo.

Please suggest if we need to do any next steps.

Firefox was working like a charm on my MacBook Pro '16 19 with Venture 13.0 macOS, without any issues. But somehow, after I did upgrade to Venture 13.2.1, Firefox started random hangs/freezes after each 30-60sec. And it takes ~5-10sec. I started to get random panics 2-3 per day.

I did not changed anything in the settings. This also happens in Private Window mode. I usually restart the computer everyday. (Eventually a new Firefox instance each new day, before Ventura 13.0 and still do after upgrade)

I have read the followings:

But didn't help me. I have everything (tabs, favs, extensions, works, etc.) so that I do NOT want to reset/refresh ANYthing. I'd prefer to fix the root cause and understand the issue why it keeps occur.

I either change my main Firefox browser (after 8+ years) or look for a solution to fix the root cause without doing any refresh or reset (or something that cause data lost).

Is this a known issue?

Could you please help me on this? Thanks!

My Environment:

  • Firefox 110.0
  • macOS 13.2.1

Also, in the Troubleshooting Information section below, browser somehow couldn't collect to data and showed a "manual way documentation" button. I clicked it and it redirected me a doc. When I back to previous page, I lost the data I've just written here. So had to rewrite everything... Can you please fix this?

I have an issue where I can upload a video to OneDrive and it plays back at a very low resolution in Firefox, both via double clicking and using Stream. The problem persists in safe mode. If I download the video, it comes back at full resolution and it streams perfectly in Chrome and Safari.

I have cleared cached web content. I also recently had an issue with lip sync on YouTube, which I resolved by refreshing Firefox, but the above remains.

Any ideas?

Hey team! After my organization restricted GitHub access to a specific IP ranges (from inside company VPN) I cannot access GitHub Organization repositories through Firefox Developer Edition, though VPN works and I am signed in. I can see the following error: `Access forbidden from this IP address` together with incorrect IP address displayed.

Also worth mentioning that through Google Chrome I can access my company GitHub pages perfectly.

Can you please help?

When I use the Firefox in full screen mode in the Mac OS, the three colored dots (red, gray and green) are automatically hidden, however if I'm switching between tabs, is normal that sometimes I go with the cursor a little bit upper, and the three dots will be automatically displayed. The problem is how these three dots are displayed, with an annoying drop-down effect. This is so annoying!!!! On safari and office tools the behavior is different, when the cursor is close to the three dots area, they just appear, and there is no annoying drop-down effect.

There is any method to change this effect on Firefox?

After a mistaken forced restart (inadvertent pressure on the shutdown/start key), one of the 3 windows I had open is invisible. It shows in the 'Windows" menu as one of 3 but when I select it - nothing. It does not show as a recently closed window in History. I have restarted Firefox multiple times, including deleting the xulstore.json file then restarting (a fix from another similar thread).

How can I restore this inaccessible window?

Thanks

Yesterday I updated my mac mini OS to 13.3. From that time, when I use my home pod mini (airplay), firefox does not work on the sound.

I tried youtube and twitch, but neither sounds nothing when I turned it on with home pod mini.

I think it is a problem with firefox with up-to-date version macOS. It's because other browsers make sounds well such as Safari.

I tried using troubleshoot mode and the crashes happened on there too. I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, created a new account, removed and added my extensions back on, restarted my computer, and yet the issue keeps persisting. The browser doesn't prompt me to send in a crash report when this happens either, it's only the tabs not the browser itself that repeatedly crashes.

Hi! For the last ~3 days I've been having a problem that is getting increasingly frequent where tabs will, sometimes even after having previously been loaded and sometimes brand new tabs, turn blank and feature only a small loading animation at the centre of the page.

Reopening the url in another tab doesn't work, but the sites will work on Chrome and it's not limited to any one website, it's happened with youtube, google, reddit, fb, random blogs etc. Sometimes it will even happen in the middle of using a website.

I haven't added any new extensions since before the troubles started, and I tried disabling them all to no avail. I'm not really sure what's going on, though I am to assume that the pages are somehow hanging but I checked the processes page and it didn't seem to be an issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd rather not have to move back to chrome.

I'm running Firefox 111.0.1 on a 2021 MacBook Pro running OS 13.0.1. I'm suddenly unable to load eBay; all efforts result in a blank white page whose tab indicates it's trying to load. I cleared my cache of all eBay data and restarted Firefox--alas, to no avail. Please don't tell me to look for the shield in the upper left-hand corner--one needs to have a loaded page in order to do that.

Incidentally, I REALLY appreciate not only being informed that my Subject field needs at least five characters but that as it stood, "(it has four)." Thanks for assuming that I lack the inability to handle single-digit cardinals.

I have two homes in different states. Both have Mac computers. I would like to have both Firefox and Thunderbird be the same on both with the same files and same bookmarks, passwords etc.

I now go into the Library and copy files to a thumb drive when I am at home, and bring the thumb to my cabin. My problem is that I do not know which specific files to copy and bring and replace.

Can someone please inform me which files to copy for a seamless transition between both machines?

Thank you.

Hey!

Early I was able just to drag URL from the address bar and page name / title will appear as the bookmark name. But two or three days ago FF stopped doing that, instead in the bookmark name I get just the URL duplicated.

I feel it may be related with new 111 version that was released around that time and installed on my computer by FF auto-update.

See pic attached, after the `pythonds` bookmark bug started to appear and names are URLs now :(
