I have used Firefox for many years and been most satisfied. However, for the last several days when I click to load one of my bookmarked You Tube pages, I get a blank screen except for a shaded 3-line menu and three circles, none of which are responsive. If I click to the home You Tube page I get a shaded outline of the videos but no images and the shaded spots do not respond.

I have cleared cookies and site data and temporary files several times, which will allow me access to ONE You Tube channel, but if I click to another, the same blank screen appears and I cannot return to my accessed channel, it also has blanked out.

Quite puzzled about this, every other site I frequent works perfectly well on Firefox, but You Tube does not. However, You Tube works PERFECTLY WELL on Microsoft Edge and, I suspect, other browsers, so I do not think it is a problem on their end.

Please advise what the next step(s) should be.

Firefox blocks POST request to a remote server with self-signed certificate and IP in address - MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT

Hello, a locally hosted application has a web interface which tries to send a data (POST request) to a remote resource (which is under my control) yet the web browser (Firefox ESR 128.9.0esr) blocks this resource request saying in a developer console (F12) this:

  • NS_ERROR_GENERATE_FAILURE(NS_ERROR_MODULE_SECURITY, MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT)
  • Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://myRemoteServerIP/request.php. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null).

I suspect that the CORS blocking is a result of the first (SSL) error, AI also told me that I can configure my remote server/resource (e.g., using Apache, Nginx, or PHP) to include the necessary CORS headers in its responses and indeed the remote server of mine has such lines inside a PHP script that is receiving the request: header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *'); header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST'); header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: *');

The remote resource (server) is using self-signed SSL certificate and it is referenced using IP instead of a domain name.

When I try to do the same request via Private browsing window (without extensions), there is no NS_ERROR about self-signed cert. but only CORS one. When I try browser Librewolf 137.0.2-1 (my FF version is older: 128.9.0), the request is NOT blocked, is OK..

My main aim is not to avoid blocking in my browser, but in all main browsers for everyone.

Is it so that this kind of blocking is default behavior in browsers? Is there please any way to avoid that, beside getting a domain name and CA signed SSL certificate?

When trying to log onto YouTube on my Windows 11 laptop through Firefox or Edge, I input my name & password then Google says, "Couldn't sign you in. Google couldn't verify this account belongs to you." I was on fine yesterday. I can get on with some other gmail accounts that I have, but my main gmail account only works on Chrome now.

I'm not sure what category this is under, but there used to be a side window that would come up for me when I would be shopping on Amazon which would check the ratings of the product and let me know by a letter grade whether or not the ratings are reliable. That side window no longer shows up after this latest update. How can I get that back? It was very useful in helping me decide which product to chose!

I have been using Firefox desktop for over 15 years. However, I frequently encounter websites which do not run well on Firefox. Recent examples I remember are Virgin Atlantic, and Holiday Autos. My bank website is another relevant example. I have to switch to Chrome, which does not have this problem. Considering that Firefox releases updates rather frequently I'm surprised this has not been addressed.

I love Firefox, I use it on all my devices. And daily I access facebook.com on this browser, it's been working flawlessly - until yesterday. Yesterday, using Firefox (ver 130.0.1) on my Windows 10 PC, I tried accessing a FB page which I visit sometimes: https://www.facebook.com/OpenOscillator

Rather than reaching that page, I got a white screen with this error message: "Sorry, something went wrong." And since then, even visiting the Facebook home page (or any other FB page) has the same error message.

Today I tried the same thing on my Mac (OS 14.3), using Firefox and logging into facebook.com, which worked as usual. But when I went to https://www.facebook.com/OpenOscillator, I got the same error message: "Sorry, something went wrong." And as happened on my PC, now on my Mac I can't access any FB page on Firefox.

And just to mention, I've rebooted both the PC and the Mac, yet this problem persists on both devices.

Trying this same exercise on Edge on my PC does not have this problem. Nor does it happen when doing this on Safari on my Mac.

So, this problem has only been happening on Firefox. I can no longer access facebook.com with Firefox. Do you guys have any ideas how to solve this?

Helpful to know: Do you have the same outcome if you visit this FB page: https://www.facebook.com/OpenOscillator

Thanks for your assistance! Steven

I use Google search and do not like the AI overview feature. In the Chrome, Edge, and Opera browser I've added an extension that blocks the AI. What I've noticed when I use FF I see no AI results when using Google search and I've not added an AI overview block extension. Is there something different about FF that prevents AI results from showing without the need for an extension? I look forward to your comments. Thanks

How come Google Meet takes me to a 404 page on Firefox only (dont have this issue on any other browser)

In recent weeks when I open my Macbook and go to https://meet.google.com, the page that loads says "404. That’s an error. The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know." The issue is only on Firefox and not Chrome or Safari. When I see the error page, I look at the URL and it has the word "unsupported": https://meet.google.com/unsupported?meetingCode=landing&ref=https://meet.google.com/landing

So I dragged firefox to the trash, reinstalled and the issue persisted. I do not have a VPN. I'm using my own Wifi at home. If I switch to my desktop computer (m2 mac ultra) and go to the same Google Meet URL, I don't get a 404 error on firefox, however no one can hear my microphone any more as of 1 month ago, when I didn't have this issue in the past and I've done everything that everyone has told me to (in order to fix it) and nothing has worked.

Laptop: MacBook Pro 2021, MacOS Sequoia 15.0 Firefox: 13.0.1 (64 bit)
