A few weeks ago I noticed that my bookmarks have started changing the order that I list them. In the past the bookmarks always stayed in the exact order I put them. Now everyday, they change. It drives me crazy! How do I stop that?

Firefox memory usage

As Firefox runs, it increases the amount of memory that it uses until I am unable to run at all because I am at 100%. How do I fix this?

There is an audio startup delay that persists on all websites and is present only in Mozilla. Apparently this problem is a decade old: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/39mrox/firefox_html5_audio_delay/ I couldn't find a long-term solution. So far I've Cleaned cache of all websites; Turned off the hardware acceleration and restarted Firefox;

Also this problem sometimes randomly disappears, but only until the next restart when it shows itself again. I don't know what to do because I literally can't use some websites in Firefox

Hey Gang,

Sooooo, this is Driving Me Nuts!!!

Facebook.com is Redirecting to https://business.facebook.com/business/loginpage/ after I log in.

I have LITERALLY tried everything to fix this (and I'm no noob)!!!! It's not a Plugin or Extension, it's not related to HTTPS over DNS or any Browser Privacy Settings; not a Cookie or any Saved Site Setting, nor is it anything in My Antivirus or Windows 10 Registry (I purged EVERYTHING!). Nothing in the Hosts File, etc etc etc....

It was working until whatever update I did, and it works fine in Opera and Chrome as well as on another PC with a fully patched FF Browser.

Any Ideas or a Solution would be EPIC, I am ALMOST out of options and I'm all Grepped Out....TIA!


Thanks Gang!

I belong to a number of Group IO groups. I just noticed that the correspondents in all my E-mails from the groups are changed to the same FROM.

I'm running windows 10 22H2 Thunderbird 128.4.2 (64 bit)

I checked the email source and there the FROM is correct.

Is it something that I did inadvertently?

Thanks, Nor

Question: What setting will allow mimimalized Firefox windows to visibly appear on my Macbook dock?

I have spent hours trying to figure out why all of my minimalized windows (with multiple tabs) seem to disappear into my Firefox icon instead of being visible on my Mac dock as they have for decades.

Running the latest Sequoia 15.1 and latest Firefox 132.02, in the last couple weeks, when I click the yellow "minimalize" button on the top left of my Firefox window, they disappear and are inaccessible. If I press Control + Tab, I can see the windows, but can not access them. I've tried endless attempts to correct this in my Mac system settings and in Firefox settings with no luck! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

How do I prevent Firefox (which isn't even active) from activating and opening a tab when I use Windows Explorer to double-click-to-open a .DOC file? This is new behavior. How do I disable it. I don't want any application to access (even addresses) of an object I reference unless I specifically ask it to. When I activate Windows Explorer - I don't expect (or want) Firefox throwing up tab panels with the address in it.

With the old, or at least older, release, when I logged in to a site using my password I could either save the password or use a drop down to never save. The "never save" used to work, it doesn't now or I'm missing something that will give me the opportunity to choose which passwords I can save and which I want to "never save". Please clarify - am I doing something wrong?

I've recently migrated from an Intel based mac to an arm based mac. Firefox was working ok, until I rebooted. Now all of the tabs, address bar, shortcuts, and worst: everything in all of the preferences pages is in some weird font that's completely unreadable. The actual web pages are ok. This is really bad? How can I fix this, especially given that nothing in the preferences pages is intelligible?

I am located in Israel, but have set my default display language to English.

Over the past few weeks, when I go from the Google search page (my home screen in Firefox) to Gmail, the "select account" screen displays in Hebrew rather than English. Once I've selected an email account, however, the display reverts to English.

This is a minor annoyance, as I can easily navigate the Hebrew page, but it is a recent change, and I can find no explanation for it.

I have checked to see whether the problem occurs in another browser (Chrome) and it does not.

Any help would be appreciated
