Firefox Community Forum

When using firefox, and only when using firefox, I experience quite a lot of lag when using "google docs" (https://docs.google.com) and only when using "google docs", eg. this does not apply to, say, MS Word or google presentations.

Like I said this only applies to firefox, meaning google chrome and microsoft edge both work fine.

Here are some of the troubleshooting steps I've tried, without success:

  Launching in troubleshooting mode

  Disabling 0-RTT

  Disabling hardware acceleration

These issues do not appear on my machine at home, which also uses firefox, that however is a different version of Windows, an AMD cpu and a dedicated GPU instead of integrated, so idk if that narrows it down even one bit...

The computer on which the issues appear on is a HP Spectre x360 14, which if you don't want to search it up means I have 32gb of RAM @ ~7500MT/s, and an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H as my CPU.

I'd love to keep using firefox without having to fire up chrome every time i need to write/edit a document, which, as a student, is quite often...

Thanks a lot!

I have the same problem as in jimkimbroughjr 1/30/25, 9:13 AM message about bookmarks. I have tried the steps in the response, and they do not work for me. My bookmarks disappeared this afternoon, although they were all there this morning. I went to some sites I remembered, and only one had the blue star in the menu bar. Trying to recover the bookmarks through Settings did not work, even when I saved a bookmarks backup file to HTML and tried to import that. Troubleshooting information should be below. I had to use the manual method and I hope I copied and pasted the data correctly. Back to the bookmark problem: Now what?

for about a month my firefox home screen is greyed out in the "thought provoking stories" and it is continuously flashing. Everything works, ie. I can still search the net, etc. but this is driving me crazy. I have tried everything from checking settings, through extension conflicts and resetting, but nothing makes any difference. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but it came back with the same problem. i have windows 10 and am getting ready to upgrade to 11, but I would like everything working as it should before doing the upgrade. I even tried to change my profile, but I'm not sure how to do it and it made no difference. Any help will be much appreciated.

Since no one responded I was able to search some data and contacted a person and they told me what to do and fixed it.. so thanks. I am still not happy how Firefox is working since the last update.

i have to use Windows 7 due to special circumstances and everything was fine till the last automatic update a few days ago. Since then my blog WP will not open and the browser freezes on many sites and will not even fill out, takes forever to access some links.. interestingly the links from Greece and France both work much better than more local ones. I did a full system restore and was able to access some sites as noted but I need to access all my data on EQ and Volcanoes and Solar activity since I post 2x a day and being located with the home office in N CA you know how important this information is to be prepared. So I have been using Windows 7 and Word 3 and doing fine till the last update. I thought doing a restore point to January would fix it but it didn't when my husband passed I lost my computer guru he built computers so he knew about all this stuff. Its been hard to keep this one going. But so far I am able to use my laptop Toshiba for Windows 7 . Thank you, any help will be appreciated. WP is the most important link that I can't access anymore. Just leaves a blank page. The N CA USGS is another one that does not work properly. the laptop is fine since I switched over to Chrome temporarily till I can fix this problem Chrome is working well. But I want Firefox and I understand you do not support Windows less than 8.1 But it was fine till the last update and I was always taught to go back to the last time it worked.

I use Firefox 134.0.2 (aarch64) as my primary web browser. I only have it open 15 minutes and I am receiving alerts that my RAM memory is being consumed by it. I am using a Mac Mini Pro M2 chip with 32GB of RAM . I have just opened Firefox to discover it is taking 10GB of that RAM. It is the most voracious user. If I have it open longer it gets up to 16GB of memory. I often have 5 or 6 tabs open when I am working. My other browser is Chrome that barely makes it to 1GB

Hi, i tried to sign in to sync on my main desktop computer but it just leads me to firefox.com.cn and can't sync it. Tried on another computer and it works perfectly, have i done anything wrong?

Das ganze ist, seit ich bei eingeschaltetem PC mit einem Staubtusch über die Tastatur gefahren bin

Hello,

When I'm watching something from Paramount+, the cursor won't hide in full screen like it does for example for Netflix. I tested some other browser like Brave on Paramount+ and had no issues there while streaming. Have this issue on Linux and Windows so I'm pretty sure the problem is not on my side.

Would be cool if that's going to get fixed soon since it's pretty annoying.

Regards

I frequently have to clear history to persuade my browser to connect to selected sites. This deletes my preferred sites "keys" (e.g. bank, ins., etc.) Why does this happen? I use a macbook air with an M2 chip.

. What happened to Mozilla Firefox? It no longer works. I had it as my default but had to switch over to Edge to get to Facebook, Gmail, , etc. Restarted computer twice, and it still didn't work. Clue (?): The desktop comes up as usual. Used shortcut to try get to Facebook. First time a message from Mozilla flashed on the screen about something to do with PDF, but not long enough for me to read. After that, only a blank screen appeared, the little thingy that goes back & forth in the tab showing the program was in the midst of getting the website I wanted was not moving, which I think means something was stuck I am not very computer literate.

I used to login Pocket with account: *Hidden for privacy*@gmail.com.

Then you asked me to move to Mozilla.

Today, I login with Mozilla account and my saved pages are not here. Do I need to link the two accounts or what should I do to view all my contents in account '*Hidden for privacy*@gmail.com?

Thanks.

Hello, I was visiting a few websites today, and kept getting this " unknown wasm error ". The webpage would not display. Is there any way, to get an " unknown wasm error fix"?

I am using Windows10 & Firefox/Mozilla as my browser.

Thank you for you help.

I have two issues. One is on register.com. I can go their home page but when I select login, I get taken to a blank page; nothing. Yet, on my laptop, and with Firefox, I can login just fine as I can with MS Edge on this computer.

The other issue is with the Puzzle page of USA TODAY NEWSPAPER. I have included a page explaining the issue and with pictures.

I've had FF for years and never had a problem. In the last week, when i read an email with a link (and other links), it says Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at clicks.aweber.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

As far as I know, I have not changed anything in settings. I'm looking for some resolution on how to fix this. Thanks.

i can't load certain sites on firefox, it just gives me a blank white screen. there's no error displayed or anything. some sites load fine (gmail, social media, youtube, etc work normal), but some sites i visit give me a blank screen. they load fine in other browsers and even on firefox mobile, just not on firefox desktop.

i've tried deleting the cache for firefox too, but that didn't fix it either. anyone knows what the problem might be?

thanks!
