Firefox Support Forum

Hello, Live videos in youtube are not starting. No issue with regular ones. Also FB reels don't have sound and I need to press two times on play to start the video.

I tried with Chrome and Edge and I don't have such issue.

I have no extensions or add-ons installed. Cache and data are cleared.

Could you please help me?

Firefox has been white-screen blocking my access to some common websites including CNN, Amazon and possibly others. No error messages, just a blank white screen. This is a sudden change and has never been a problem in the past. Chrome and Firefox on my other computers are not affected. I have cleared caches and deleted all tabs with no change in symptom. I've also checked CPU and memory resources and both appear normal. No sites are being blocked by settings either, though I would expect Firefox to give me a "This site is blocked" message of some kind if that were the case. How do I fix this?

today i noticed when i send a chat in Facebook chat the scroll bar is blue. It has to be afire fox thing cause it does not do it in Chrome below is chrome and Facebook message now ill go to to Facebook in Firefox and color write a message and the scroll bar is blue .on left i from Chrome on the right is Fiefox how do i go to look like chrome with out the blue scroll bar

Everytime I look up something and it has a map attached to it and I click on the map, I get Google Map or MapQuest and the map is there for 3 seconds and then it looks like the attached picture. So I open up maps in its own tab and type in the address and I get same results. But if I use either of them in edge, I have no problems. I only have Mate Translate on in add ons. So I have no idea what is going on. I reset cache as I had read that from a post (though their issue was similar but not the same) I would appreciate any and all help you can give me. TYIA

As the title says, after a certain update(I'm not sure which, probably within the last few months or so), firefox on my machine starts crashing randomly. Some crash reports:

I'm using Fedora 38 workstation, GNOME as the desktop environment, and Mutter as the wm.

Why can't Firefox copy text to the clipboard anymore? It won't copy text from a web page, from a URL, or even from about:support "Copy text to clipboard"!!! I'm using version 1.22 64 bit on windows 11. I've reinstalled Firefox but it doesn't make a difference. I've tried "Troubleshoot Mode" and it's still broken!!!

I can paste into Firefox but something has broken copy!

Took me a while to figure out how to get the full installer to install to my faster and larger D drive, but I finally did.

Then I discovered it was still accessing C: under: D:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local D:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming

So I now have my Mozilla folders in both locations pointed to D: with a symbolic link or whatever.

But it STILL seems to be accessing C: to do SOMETHING, and I'm not sure what or where, as searching C: for Firefox or Mozilla turns up nothing.

It still thrashes my C: drive though, especially noticeable if I'm using it for something else at close to 100% and Firefox for example loads a Youtube page that was unused/not in focus for a while.

Somehow it's STILL causing as much activity on C as D and I'm not sure why...if I was maybe I could point more directories to D with more Symbolic links (or whatever they're called...I may be misremembering since I set this up a few weeks ago, but they seem to work fine).

(I gave up on Chrome...I can point a bunch of stuff at D, but sooner or later it breaks its ability to do updates until I move stuff to C...I'm guessing maybe the updater "fixes" something in the background that breaks it. Thankfully Firefox seems to update just fine (I do NOT use the background process, I just check every day), and I got 122 today seemingly fine. No idea why browsers are so weird about getting installed on an alternative drive compared to other programs...it's a pretty common thing to want!)

hello ppl i hope u guys doing good look in some sites firefox is not playing any sound no audio like on facebook reels or watching a vedio there i cant hear anything and some sites also when i watch vedio i cant hear any sound but in other browser everything work perfect but i like to use firefox its audio prblm and pls know thats the prblm is not from my windows i have windows 10 everything work fine pls help me fix this thx.

Ancestry.com freezes up under Firefox. Cannot manipulate trees. Get message that says page is slowing Firefox down. Works under Chrome.

You may have heard about this, Youtube (and parent Google) have recently declared war on adblockers and non-Chrome browsers. I have reason to believe they have escalated that war to deliberately crash non-Chrome browsers, at least slowing them down to make them non-responsive.

In the past few days, browsing Youtube has caused my system to stop responding requiring a power cycle to clear the problem.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is this just a bad setting, or is Youtube acting as malicious as I believe them to be?

audio is out of sync with videos when streaming, problem not present when using other browsers? The audio is ahead of the video feed. It onlt takes a couple of minutes before it is totally unwatchable.

Dear Sir/Madam

I have set up a new Microsoft Surface pro 7 with fresh Win11 23h2 and office installation.

The latest Firefox 122.0.1 has been downloaded.

Problem:

When i sign in to my Microsoft 365 account for the first time everything goes smooth and get all authentication steps.

BUT

1. I never reach the Microsoft 365 page and return back to Microsoft log in page

"https://www.office.com/?trysignin=0"

2. if I insist in Trying I get in a loop and i get the error message "AADSTS50196 authentication error,"

3. I have tried to clean Cookies cash. The only difference now is that i do not get in that indefinite loop but i have to reenter the sign in credentials and again reach the log in screen.

4. I have entered the office.com, Microsoft.com, hotmail.com as trusted sites but problem same

5. No issues in that particular Surface pro to sign in Microsoft 365 site via edge

6. No issues to sign in Microsoft 365 in my other computers via Mozila. It happens to that particular surface new installation

Any help/Troubleshooting will be appreciated

For a few months now, on different sites, the backround is fully black on black text and I can't use it at all, so I have to enter on Chrome to use it. I tried reseting the cache and booting in safe mode, but it doesn't seem to work. I changed things like themes and made the site be able to choose its own, but nothing seems to work. One option I found online but I'm not to happy to try is to make another profile, but I have all my passwords and bookmarks on this profile.

Youtube page sometimes freeze and i cant interact with anything on it, it never return to work, i have to close and open the page, the video continue to play when it freeze, the rest of the tabs and firefox works normally when that happens, i only have two extensions, betterttv and ublcok origin, i remember having the same problem with a fresh install, i dont remember ever seeing that happen when youtube put the video in a miniplayer and you can still browse the site, i only remember seeing on video pages, like youtube.com/watch?...

I am no longer able to add attachments to gmail or upload images or attachments to websites. When I click on the attachment icon or upload button, my finder window does not open. However, it works in other browsers. How can I fix this?

There are sites, including yahoo that all my comments are coming back as "comment failed to publish" or other sites where comment section just not there. Seemed like this started happening after a recent Firefox update. I have contacted web sites, my protection service and they have, after research come back with problem is Firefox. If there' something I've done or not done to have this happen, let me know. It DOES NOT happen when I use, as example Edge or anyone else. Thanks......Mike

Unfortunately it is not listed here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-set-tab-pickup-firefox-view#w_set-up-firefox-view How to switch to firefox view (first tab where all your windows and tabs are) with a hotkey!

Every time I update Firefox I find it has taken over opening pdf files. Yes I know how to fix it but it is a pain having to do that after every update. How do I fix this other than stopping all Firefox updates?
