sign in to email and box appears saying 'Stay signed in so you don't have to sign again' - 3 boxes 'YES" "NO" "DON'T SHOW THIS AGAIN" tick any box and no change next time

The last day or two, I notice that once I have multiple tabs open in firefox, I cannot move/drag them around anymore in the tab bar, changing their order.

To date, I have restarted windows, restarted firefox, made sure both Windows AND Firefox are fully up to date (On a PC), and I have even tried starting FireFox in safe mode- I still cannot drag tabs.

Every time I try to login to a different page my firefox crashes.

I also did get the attached message, wasn't forsure if this was apart of the issue?

I have tried to dump the preferences, clear cache, restart, clear history.

Running Firefox 102.11.0esr on Debian 11 desktop

Firefox is very, very slow in responding to the cursor which doesn't show up as an arrow initially (as it normally would) - so if I point at Reply (for example), normally the cursor would be an arrow, the Reply box would turn yellow and I would click which would activate the command. At the moment there is no arrow, the Reply box stays grey and nothing happens if I click the mouse button. Eventually though after about two minutes the action is done. This is happening with any command in Firefox, e.g. trying to delete text in a draft message or trying to open an email in my inbox etc. etc. - all of it is the same as above and takes about two minutes to happen.

Hey, for a while now my firefox has been having a this problem, that I have not been able to fix. No matter when it is closed or opened, it opens random links that are usually very long and never load. I installed a plugin to at least somewhat block them but they keep poping up. It doesn't seem to be connected to any keys on my keyboard, since it opens at random times without me doing anything. I have no idea what the problem is and I have tried many things to fix this:

-Reinstalling firefox -Deleting all the cookies -Using the problem-fix-opinion in my settings to clear any keybinds that could be causing this

yet nothing seems to help.

I want to attach a file and I click on a button (everything works perfectly on Chrome). When I click, in the console I get this error:

(firefox:3264): Gtk-WARNING **: 13:52:46.781: Can't open portal file chooser: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: L’interface « org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser » n’existe pas pour l’objet à l’emplacement /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop

Of course, nothing happens when I click. I have Ubuntu 22.04 and apparently Firefox in installed with snap, and I have this problem since snap is used to install Firefox.

If it's useful:

This message is the last I'm writing before I definitely move to Chrome. I hope I'll get the help I couldn't find on other places (I saw a lot of answers telling to deactivate snap, adding a ppa or some solutions like these).

Whenever I try to download a file from google drive, I get: "The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to drive.google.com. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

Downloading google docs files from drive works fine, they convert to word and save to my downloads like normal. But downloading image files or pdfs yields this error. Right-clicking and downloading them from the folder view just does nothing. There is no difference between shared files and my own drive files. This error only happens in firefox, I can download files on microsoft edge just fine.

This has been happening for a few weeks now. Things I've tried:

-clearing cookies and cache -restarting firefox, restarting computer -checking for updates and updating firefox -disabling all my add-ons -clearing startup cache -adding drive.google.com and google.com to the exceptions for enhanced tracking protection -switching from standard to custom and unchecking cookies from the list of trackers and scripts to block, then clearing all cookies and cache -attempting to download in firefox troubleshoot mode -attempting to download in incognito mode -refreshing firefox -re-installing firefox by following the steps here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1233618 -turned off real-time protection on computer antivirus (default for windows 10) -turned off microsoft defender firewall

I don't even know what else I can try. I assume it's a firefox error because this only happens using firefox on my laptop - I use firefox mobile and can download the same files on my phone. Does anyone have any advice?

All of a sudden, creating eBay listings using Firefox is not working, it just puts one in a loop over and over. I tried to refresh, reinstall, making sure windows is updated, checked for malware, virus, etc. I did download Opera and works without any issues. I also noted that this is not new as some other users have had that same problem in the past.

The firefox opens but takes a long time to load any webpage. It is almost a delay of few minutes before the browser is responsive. It has gone through many updates and is not resolving the issue. I have changed the add ons with no help. Once it starts loading the web page then it works perfectly fine until I close it.

Hello, the Firefox app often stops responding when I have multiple tabs open or when a more demanding process is running in a tab. Also, Firefox stops responding when I copy a screenshot. I have tried the browser without any extensions and the problem persists. I use EndeavourOS based on Arch linux, I use the current version of the system and Firefox.

Trying to understand why Amazon has become unresponsive using Firefox. I am not experiencing this on Edge. I prefer Firefox and I am on Amazon a lot, so I would like to resolve the problem.

Are there any additional steps I can take to analyze/diagnose the problem?

Greetings and Regards In Windows 7 64-bit, when pasting in any of the empty spaces and entries, Firefox closes suddenly. Report ID 93d3828f-e08f-4b02-8f99-40070d9ac990 bp-b9584f4d-6683-452b-9fd5-5b46c0230527

for the past several months, FF has just been hanging when I attempt to open a website. sometimes it sits there for hours and never connects yet if I open Chrome, I have instant access. I have troubleshot, deleted and reinstalled FF, used safe mode to diagnose the problem. I have done everything I can think of, I even clear all history daily...and NOTHING helps. Sometimes I have no problems for weeks, then all of a sudden, I can't access the internet but ONLY with FF. I'm ready to just delete everything and never use FF again, but I like it and have been using it for 6 years. Chrome works 100% of the time....FF is hit or miss lately and I'm about done with it.

Firefox in general uses a lot of CPU but when I watch youtube video in private window, the CPU usage goes to 100%. Why does it use so much CPU? I am using the latest version.
