Firefox Support Forum

Hi! It started before about 2 week. Firefox suddenly started using much more resources than before. It uses almost 8GB of RAM and CPU Usage is about 30% (Ryzen 5 5600X) when only 5 tabs are open I've checked with the about:performance and all of the tasks combined don't come close to 500MB of memory usage, and in the task manager it shows firefox opens 11 processes (I don't know if it's the expected behavior, just thought it's worth mentioning).

i would be thankful for your help :)

Hello,

I am using a Canon printer. When I try to print a test page using a free online tool, I cannot print a page using the Mozilla browser, but when I use another browser, I get the print option over there.

How can I fix it?

Thanks

Very minor issue here, but I have firefox pinned to my windows taskbar, and when I click to open it, it creates a separate icon to the right of my pinned icon. This results in two firefox icons on the taskbar, as in the attached picture.

Not a huge problem at all, but I do have a pretty cluttered taskbar and would love as much space as possible. Any suggestions?

I've completely cleared cache, browsing history - everything. Facebook won't load when logging in. I had this issue with Twitch.tv as well and just started using another browser for my stream watching.

Hi,

I recently downloaded firefox on a new computer and due to that I have lost all of the pinned pages on the new tab page.

The default view is set to 32 tabs and I would like to recover the lost tabs to what it was before it got emptied.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi,

   have encountered problems loading a game on Paddypower.com (Jigs and Reels) it failed to load, it load progress bar was very slow in fact it never completed. After clearing Site Data (as advised by site support) still same problem. Tried on MS Edge and it loads OK, so back to FireFox.... switch on troubleshoot mode and try again after clearing site data again (all cookies allowed) Game now reports error and stops during load, as do other games from same supplier.... so I've made things worse ! So this stop may not be the cause of original problem.
   Captured Console , which means little to me but does contain lots of errors, but I seem to recall looking at this before and lots of errors seemed harmless. 
   Will go back to non troubleshoot mode and capture log again.
   Back to original problem console messages pasted to shared data

So Discord sees my mic and speaking gets the mic to react but voice chats do not work. I could not hear the other person and she could not hear me but the mic was allowed and reacted to any sound. Speaking made that green circle pop up. Anybody know what was going on?

Hello. I have build a new pc with amd video card and I have installed everything that was needed (that I can think of : drivers, some codecs, java). When I try to watch on sites like Netflix(Error Code F7701-1003)/Twitch(#3000) I get errors. I have searched google and tried all those suggestions (usually there are like 6 or 7 suggestions on each article and usually they are the same update/clear cookies and cache/disable adons/enable autoplay/reset firefox(even reinstalled it clean several times)/and something with enabling some more performance for video). This has never happened before and I have no idea what else to try.

Using Oracle Secure Global Desktop 5.60 with Firefox browser html5 (Windows). With newest Firefox browser release 106 I get only blank screens instead of the appplication (started via SGD) If using Firefox Web Developer Tools following error shows:

OffscreenCanvas.toBlob() is deprecated. Use OffscreenCanvas.convertToBlob() instead. emulator.html

using OffscreenCanvas.convertToBlob() does not help. Issue stays the same.

Somebody knows how to solve this?

Hi, everyone. I hope you will be doing good. As we have a website about nagaland state lottery which is properly working in other browsers. While checking it in the firefox I found that the website is so lazy and break down while during the loading time. Could anyone here can guide me about this issue?

I had this problem whenever I'm in fullscreen (eg. Youtube videos or Twitch streams), I open up new tabs with Ctrl+T and it doesn't autofocus on the search bar.

Thanks!

I am trying to help a friend this lives out of town, all of her bookmarks have dissapeared. I was trying to walk her through setting them up again but her Firefox application menu won't open. I tried walking her through just typing the address in then saving it as a bookmark, but the blue star at the far right of the address bar isn't there. Is there a setting we need to turn on for her to use bookmarks in Firefox?

Thanks for your help. CMc

I download an attachment from an email, then drag and drop it into an app. Then I click on the attachment in the app to check it. It used to open in a new tab on the browser next to the app I'm working on. Suddenly, today, when I click on the attachment it sends a new name back to the download box and ignores changes I have made to the attachment. How can I get it back to showing in a new tab on the browser?

Firefox 106.05

Pre-Quantum there were a couple addons that captured videos and offered the option to send it to a designated third party download manager. I believe one of them was Flashgot.

Is there no way to do this in today?

Why are built-in browser download managers so primitive and slow?

No matter what version of Firefox I'm on (currently 106.0.5), my Twitch spontaneously disconnects or stops displaying messages, sub alerts, channel redemptions, refreshing the page temporarily fixes it until it breaks again. None of my extensions should be affecting this, and if it's UBlock Origin then....*sigh*
