Firefox Community Forum

I cannot use Firefox without it blowing up my memory to 86GB used in Activity Monitor. I've cleared my cache, closed all my tabs and bookmarked them. I have a Macbook Air M1 2020. I've tried restarting and am definitely using the current version of Firefox. I also updated to the latest OS Tahoe 26.5 to see if that helped. What should I do next please?!

I use eBird extensively. When I try to play the audio (with sonograms), I get a message that says "We are still processing this file. Try again later". These files perform well on my Android phone, so I know it it is not eBird's glitch. I am confused about the setting options on Firefox that I need to set. These files are usually .wav format. I have tried to open a ticket with eBird, but have not had a response. Can you guide me? Thanks.

Greetings and Good evening Windows was reset on 03/06/2026 due to problem. Option chosen was removal of Apps only No data was removed When Mozila was opened on 03/06/2026,It had all data since 2021.

I have lots (~100) of tabs open, distributed among windows and virtual desktops. Every now and then the laptop fan starts running wildly, and I identify a CPU hogging webpage in about:processes. How can I now switch to the open window/tab of that webpage to close or unload it? I would expect a click (or context menu item) within about:processes to bring me there. Currently I have to scan through all desktops/windows/tabs to find the page.

The Firefox main screen has about 2" of space on 3 ides. The icons are so far down (the 4th side) that I cannot read the second line without moving the page up. Many of the web sites I load are off kilter, mostly NYT and Facebook games which always have to be adjusted to a place where they are on the screen correctly. I have spent several hours searching through forums, resetting , refreshing , changing zoom, you name it. I then repeated the process with Gemini, at which point it seemed I only Made the Google search bar smaller but by now I m not even sure.

I had this trouble after Firefox's previous update, where the browser would just close as I was in a tab. It had stopped so I thought the problem was fixed. However, it just updated the browser a few days ago and again I'm having a problem where the browser will just close in the middle of me entering information. It does not have to do with which program I am in as it just seems to happen randomly. It does not save any information I've typed in.
