Local server won't load

I run a Synology DSM server on my local network. The website page to load locally inside my LAN is along the lines of 127.0.0.1:1001.

MacOSX 15.0.1 FireFox(FF) 132.0 (aarch64)

Previously accessing the DSM via the local IP address worked fine with no problems. Now, following one of the last couple of FF updates, I get an "unable to connect" message.

I also have a domain that routes to my local server and I can still access the DSM via the internet http address through FF. So I know that DSM is running fine and I have verified the settings within DSM.

I can load the DSM via the local IP in both Safari and Chrome. Only FF says it's unable to connect. So that shows that my DSM settings are fine and the page is available and loads in Safari and Chrome via the local IP.

I searched the forum and found similar postings, but not quite the same issue as mine. I deleted the cache & cookies/site data. I ensured the Proxy mode in FF is set to "No Proxy". I do not have any extensions running or themes.

I am at a complete loss at what setting in FF I need to change to restore this functionality.

Thanks, Matt

I just got a new Epson 3-in-one printer and tried to sign up for the warranty. I got a message that the warranty was expired... I went to the Epson support site on Firefox and Malwarebytes blocked the site as malware... It said I could add the site as approved, but I don't know how to do that. "https://www.epsoncom.com/my-account/home". The Epson site said I already had an account but my password was incorrect. I had an Epson printer more than ten years ago; I don't remember the password and they don't provide an option to reset it. HELP, PLEASE.

Hi, Not sure if this is the right place but here goes:

Firefox keeps increasing it's tab RAM usage when I change the "src" property of an image programmatically for extended periods of time (1 hour or so).

I created a dummy project here: https://github.com/mvandermade/example-base64-image-memory-high-native

The code above swaps out the image "src" 20 times a second. However I seen buildups with lower frequencies but bigger images too...

Here some measurement of tab RAM usage:

Measurements Windows 10: Firefox 131 00.00h 37MB 01.15h 127MB 03.00h 228MB

Edge (latest) 00.00h 28MB 01.15h 30MB 03.00h 33MB

(Edge seems to have no memory buildup as much)

Here is a copy of the code if the repo ever goes down:

<html>
    <head>
        <script>
        function generateRandomBase64Image() {
            // Create a canvas element
            const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
            const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');

            // Set canvas dimensions
            canvas.width = 200;
            canvas.height = 200;

            if(ctx == null) return ""

            // Fill the canvas with a random color
            ctx.fillStyle = `#${Math.floor(Math.random() * 16777215).toString(16)}`;
            ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

            // Draw some random shapes
            for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                ctx.fillStyle = `#${Math.floor(Math.random() * 16777215).toString(16)}`;
                ctx.beginPath();
                ctx.arc(
                    Math.random() * canvas.width,
                    Math.random() * canvas.height,
                    Math.random() * 50,
                    0,
                    Math.PI * 2
                );
                ctx.fill();
            }

            // Convert the canvas to a Base64 string
            return canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
        }

        setInterval(() => {
            document.getElementById("swapper").src=generateRandomBase64Image()
        }, 50)

        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <img src="" id="swapper"/>
    </body>
</html>

Just a observation from my side, if I can help improve things please let me know!

p.s. I also created a project in React which gives similar results: https://github.com/mvandermade/example-base64-image-memory-high

On websites, thumbnails will not display but appear instead as white boxes with small blue question marks. I am using a two year old ipad and my internet speed is 180.

This is a new bug, as of today.

If I click on each thumbnail the image displays just fine, but that is not ideal.

On a reddit forum, someone suggested typing about:config into the search bar but nothing happens when I do that.

Any ideas?

please forgive me for asking again, but I REALLY need my addons to work. Firefox disabled my addons, forcing me to upgrade to a version of firefox that I don't need, since the old one was working just fine. The new version does not seem to appear to have downloaded properly, and neither version is allowing my addons to work or be re-installed. Please explain it to me like I am 5 years old, and help me to get this fixed without losing any of my info that might be stored in the addons.

 Thank you.

My system memory is reading at 57% right now in task manager, that the vast majority of that is being used by Firefox.

Why?

Normally, this would be called a flaw in the program, not the user, as all I have done in regards to settings is "keep tabs previous open when re-opening Firefox" and "Do not automatically update" because Firefox took it upon itself to not re-open my previous tabs on the last update.

Why is this program eating up all of that memory? I have "Firefox (15)" in Task manager under "Apps" and then 13 more instances of Firefox in "Backround Processes"

Wtf?
