Firefox Community Forum

In Firefox, and only in Firefox, I get 'Failed to verify your identity' on these sites. I have updated MacOS and Firefox, rebooted, tried a different DNS, and disabled all of my extensions. With extensions disabled I don't get the error, but the login site won't accept my login at all. See the attached image. I can't think of anything else to try.

Support I am having problems accessing my accounts on certain web sites, I can access them with other browsers, just not Mozilla Firefox. The two main sites are: https://www.bigfishgames.com https://www.spectrum.net How do I solve this problem? Firefox has been my default Browser for two decades now, but if this problem continues it will not remain as the default. Michael

By using Process Explorer or Process Hacker or maybe task manager, I hope you can also verify that Firefox consumes a few GDI handles per open tab. Windows has a global limit and a per process limit of 10000. GDI objects are used for windows, for the file save dialog and also for user interface elements like buttons or lists. However many applications like Firefox draw everything themself like XUL etc. But still, Firefox consumes 3 handles for me (verified on another computer) per open tab.

If you have a lot of tabs open (for reasons not to be discussed in this topic) this can be problematic. If it reaches 10000 windows will not create more. Sometimes firefox hangs, but often Fullscreen (e.g. youtube videos) will not work and the gui will disappear. Also the context menu will not open and the save dialog cannot work and is hidden.

Am I the first to report this? I did not find anything. Can this be fixed? Can I post this to bugzilla?

Can anyone confirm this? The latest version does not fix it.

We are getting errors that css values not defined as if the css file is not loaded from our CDN, which is only happening in Firefox and not other browsers that we support.

We confirmed something changed in Firefox that is triggering this around FF version 132. With the ESR (currently 128.5) and the page is working correctly. When we switched back to latest 133 and the bug is there

In the situations it happens, sometimes our css is NOT being loaded. In others, it is loaded and doesn't work but I see things trying to render before the file shows up in the console network logs. When it works...it is coming up cached. So this feels like a race condition of some type

I'm pretty sure the rule is that css is blocking, because we discussed race conditions when we implemented this, so this might be a Firefox bug? If this is a Firefox bug that isn't in an esr yet, we want to get it filed against firefox and fixed before the next esr.

We even tried a hacky patch on our code's method that is in question, as well as tried putting the expected css font-family style into a <style> tag in our index.html. The patch worked on Windows. It did not work on Mac. Stepping through the code, we see `undefined` / `null`. This definitely implies that the css styles simply have not been applied when the first component asking for the theme is routing through this code.

So again: our Firefox > 132. ESR up to 131 doesn't produce this issue, so something changed in Firefox 132.

If we tried loading our css file in a parent page (just loading, not using) to get it into the mix sooner, it doesn't help. An iframe is still loading faster than its parent frame is loading that css file from the CDN.

I'm no longer able to play youtube videos on Firefox. I've tried everything from re-starting laptop (this worked initially) to refreshing/ updating Firefox browser as well as clearing Firefox cache and cookies. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, MC chowbabyhi@aol.com

p.s. youtube does work and play on my Edge browser

When I type in the search bar, for example, 3+3 (also tried 3 + 3), when I enter, it will give me this "3 3" and will just show results instead of the calculator.

It, however, still work normally if I were to write "3 plus 3"

Firefox was working well on my desktop computer until I used Avast software to "optimize the computer. Now the only software I can bring to the screen is AOL email.

Firefox is working well on my husband's laptop. So the problem has to be solely on my desktop. And is probably due to optimizing performance. I checked Avast but the Help claims no problems occur when optimizing.

Right now, I get an error of a Tab being broken.

Right now I am using Google Chrome but I would prefer to get this Firefox problem fixed.

The Firefox app I am using is the latest version, 134.0.1
