I have moved from Centos Linux to Rocky Linux and could not play Perron FM on onlineradiobox.com whereas I could on an Ubuntu Linux machine. It turned out I had to install ffmpeg (dnf ffmpeg) on the OS to support the right codec. The error was (in Firefox developer view, F12): HTTP “Content-Type” of “audio/aac” is not supported. Load of media resource https://onlineradiobox.com/json/za/perronfm/play?platform=web failed. Hope this helps someone.

Lately I've noticed that when I'm viewing a page and take an action that causes a pop-up action panel to appear, when I click that panel the page I was viewing in that tab disappears to be replaced by another tab's displayed page. This can be annoying.

For example, I am editing entries in Roboform to delete duplicates and the Roboform page of logins is displayed in a tab. I select an entry and choose Delete when the confirmation popup appears. When I click the button to confirm my choice, the tab with the Roboform page displayed disappears. I chose the Roboform example because it is, perhaps, unique; but it happens with other web pages as well.

This has continued to occur after updates to Firefox and even after uninstalling, downloading and reinstalling a fresh copy of the program.

Might this be happening because of an option I've set but was unaware of the consequences of that choice? Why else might it occur?

Hi

I'm having this strange loading issue on Firefox (PC, Windows 10) where occasionally when I try to open a new tab by either searching something up or opening a link, there's a chance that the page will just never load, and I have to repeat the action just for the new tab to finally open

I've restarted my PC, updated Windows 10 and my video drivers, and this still persists. Firefox nor other applications lag, this only happens when opening up a new tab by searching something or opening a link

Any ideas? Thanks

When Firefox is first opened, the Roboform Password Manager Start page works fine. If for one reason or another the Firefox browser is closed, when the browser is reopened start.roboform.com cannot access the server.

I don't have this problem with Chrome, which doesn't use the extension, instead providing an icon to use to restart the Roboform start page.

I really prefer to use Firefox, but reenabling the Roboform start page is a pain. What can I do do fix this?

Google services won't work after restarting

For a few weeks already I've been having the same issue: whenever I restart my computer, it takes Firefox and, ironically, Chrome, 24-48hs to let me use most google services (search engine, YouTube, google maps, logins+captchas, google-powered internal search engines, you get the idea. Everything but gmail and drive). Strangely, this doesn't happen in Opera or Edge.

The error message is always the same, asking to check my internet connection (which is silly, because EVERYTHING else works just fine). I thought the issue would be one of my extensions, but I don't even have the same extensions in Firefox or Chrome, and even after disabling+restarting AND uninstalling+restarting them, it won't work. Clearing caches, using incognito, nothing works.

If anyone has any idea of what this could be or what I could try next, please tell me, 2023 is not an age to be waiting 1-3 business days for a site to load.

I am having Mac desktop browsing problems with Firefox - clicking is slow and sometime unresponsive, or erratic - and none of that with Safari. It's not hardware or bandwidth... is it a buggy new update, or maybe Apple shenanigans? I am actually asking that because my iPad Firefox browser started being buggy too - it's not opening cached pages Thanks for the help!

Hey,

Recently, our team has observed a specific problem that seems to be unique to users who visit our site via Firefox. While the site performs seamlessly on other browsers, such as Chrome and Safari, we have encountered an issue that impacts the user experience on Firefox.

Issue Details:

Symptoms: Users frequently encounter outdated or cached versions of web pages, even after updates have been made on the server.

Here is the link of the page https://swishtag.com/shopify-agency-new-york/

Impact: Stale content can lead to confusion, outdated information being presented to users, and a degradation of the overall user experience.

Context: We have implemented caching mechanisms to improve website performance, but it seems that the caching duration or invalidation process may not be functioning as intended.

Expected Behavior:

The website should consistently display the most up-to-date content to users, reflecting any recent changes or updates made on the server.


Best Regards David

I have observed an unexpected behavior related to video playback on my website when accessed through the Mozilla Firefox web browser. As of late, I have noticed discrepancies in the layout, features, and overall functionality of my website when viewed on Firefox. It appears that videos are not playing correctly or are exhibiting issues that affect the user experience negatively. This discrepancy is concerning and has the potential to impact the satisfaction of our visitors. I wish to inquire whether encountering such difficulties is a common occurrence when browsing or utilizing WordPress on the Mozilla Firefox browser. If this is not a normal behavior, I kindly request your expertise in identifying the root cause of this video playback issue and providing a prompt solution.
