Firefox Community Forum

Hi to all.

when i try to open an https link firefox show only a white page instead of the document from the link.

I make refresh without fix anything I totally remove firefox and delete also the registry entries and after make a new installation without fix anything.

Any suggestion?

Thanks and regards

some times the Youtube video's won't load i thought that it's my network glitch but my network is good only in this browser the videos won't load sometimes and some website's like amazon also won't load some times it keeps on loading but nothing will be loaded . i need to restart the whole browser to make it work please fix it Zen browser .

I use Firefox 134.0.2 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 24.04.

Some (not all) web sites show up only after a delay of exactly 30 seconds. The attached screenshot shows that this delay is due to DNS resolution. This behavior is reproducible by simply closing Firefox, opening it again and entering the same web site once more. Once this initial delay of 30 seconds for DNS resolving has passed the web site can be browsed normally.

Using Google Chrome, Opera or even the Tor Browser on the same system works without any significant delay. Also a DNS lookup from the console returns data almost immediately.

As the delay is always exactly 30 seconds this looks like some DNS resolver timeout only showing up when using Firefox.

Neither starting Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode nor (as often suggested) disabling IPV6 for DNS by setting network.dns.disableIPv6 to true did help.

Any idea how to fix this 30 seconds delay?

Many thanks for any help, Felix

I have tried several online suggestions to speed up page load on my Firefox browser. None have improved my situation. I can start a web page load on Firefox while simultaneously working from another browser. The other browsers load and I am able to complete my business before Firefox even loads. I am quite frustrated by this as I have used Firefox for as long as I can remember.

I am using Windows 11

There is a gap between firefox and the frame of the window. There is also a inconsistency at the bottom of the browser where it meets the window. Issue persists in safe-mode and all other firefox channels. Albeit, there is no gap or issue with firefox ESR.

Hi,

I know that Google's doing everything to push everyone to use their spy software Chrome, but now youtube is really slow (15 seconds to stop a video when I click on the video, same to start it, 10 seconds to open a new dongle for youtube, and roughly 5 seconds waiting in others services).

Also, some others website work very badly or sometime not working at all with Firefox, why ? I have Ublock on Firefox too

I came back to Firefox for my privacy but if 35% of websites not work with it, not great. Have you an idea how to solve this problem ?

Thank you,

Matt

OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit with all the latest Windows updates installed; running Windows version 23H2. Firefox release I'm having problems with: 137.0.2.

Just upgraded to release/version 137.0.2. The first time I open Firefox each day it takes about 2 to 3 minutes for ANY website to load. Sometimes when a web page does eventually load none of the images display.

I have tried same websites using Google Chrome AND Microsoft Edge. Websites don't have problems loading using either of those 2 browsers unless I have Firefox open in another window. If they load slowly, as soon as I close Firefox, web page load quickly in Chrome or Msoft Edge.

Not a RAM problem because I typically have around 20% of my RAM being used.

Did not have any of these problems using Firefox version 137.0.1.

UPDATE: Thought maybe it was one of my add-on/extensions so I checked for updates. Four needed updating. Made the updates and website still no loading properly.

When I try to download anything Firefox Caps my download speed at 10MB/s Other browsers don't. I tried, Edge, Chrome, Etc... they all give me access to my full Gigabit speed. I've attached 2 screenshots with a SpeedTest comparison.

Firefox: 90mbps Edge: 630mbps

Hi, I'm having some issues with Firefox. I'm opening a website (which I usually visit) even slower than with Tor at the same time. I'd love to know why and how to fix it.

my firefox is taking forever to load any type of page, and in addiition the thunderbird is also slow. I re-downloaded mozilla, but it is still downloading so skow. just last two days, and when I say slow like 2 minutes to open a page. HELP

firefox has always opened instantly when i click it, but within the past few weeks it takes 10 to 15 seconds to get going. computer restarts don't seem to make any difference. any thoughts?

updated to latest firefox 136.0.1 today and several web pages will not load on first attempt. yahoo.com, google along others indicate that page is preventing this site from loading. I have not encountered any issue with Chrome. Have not encountered this issue with firefox previously but very frustrated user. I any attempted to start firefox in debug mode without any extensions or tools and firefox still encountered the same issue. Any recommendation would be appreciated.

If I go on any website using OSM data (including OpenStreetMap itself) on Firefox logged into my account, I experience a lot of slowdown. This doesn't happen when I use incognito mode or when I use another browser, so I'm pretty sure there's some kind of cache or something that's connected to my Mozilla account that slows down OSM massively. I've tried clearing all cache and all cookies. I've even refreshed Firefox using the installer and it's still slow. I don't want to bother with deleting my account and creating a new one. What should I do to try and return back to normalcy on OSM?

Running - when open to run webtrading site, I got message - This page is slowing down Firefox. To speed up your browser stop this page. And stop button. And the webtrading site stops anyway. Could you help Please. Thank you, Frank

Hi all! Happy Firefox user for over 20 years here. Recently I've had to switch to Chrome for one of my use cases, Google Cloud Monitoring dashboards. They're evidently JS- and data-heavy, and they're often unusably slow in Firefox. I often see delays of 10s or seconds when clicking any button or link, rendering data, or doing anything else. They also seem to get slower the longer their tab is open in the browser. They're way more usable in Chrome; maybe not perfect, but drastically better.

Any thoughts?

I've used about:performance to take a profile on https://profiler.firefox.com/, and uploaded it to share.firefox.dev , and I know it claims to sanitize personal info, but I'm still a bit leery of posting the link publicly. Happy to share it with a Mozilla employee if that would help.

I am having a lot of difficulty opening websites ( NYtimes, Washington Post) they takes minutes to open. Sometimes minutes more to open article. ATT says line service is fine. NYT says it service is fine and it works on EDGE Any thoughts?

WTF IS WRONG WITH MOZILLA?

So, I'm browsing a website (shopping), going back and forth through its menus/categories and also opening tabs in the background, then every few minutes the whole browser goes blank/grey and the tabs "dead"... they're not closed just blank and I cannot go backwards or refresh... I have to close the tab and reopen it from history...

Did I explain this clearly? I've been putting up with this for 2 weeks, but now I've had it... I'm staring at a blank tab I cannot revive - refresh or back button don't work, AND another tab which is displaying a "Loading wheel" and also frozen...

I've only recently started using Firefox (I use 2 other browsers above this - each with a distinct purpose, and also started giving-in to Edge as a 4th, despite being opposed to everything Microsoft for 20y).

If I continue to experience this in the next couple of weeks, bye bye Mozilla...
