Firefox Community Forum

Just bought a new iMac. Firefox will not run on it. Any attempts to dump and reload have failed. Apparently the software does not ask for permission to access the network. Is this something that will be fixed soon, maybe it's something to do with Apple? Anyway, should I try to download an older version of Firefox? Firefox is my preferred browser. I don't want to be forced to use another.

Some how my info is all gone and nothing works including any of help suggestions.

I don't think this is even firefox it is more like msn. I keep downloading Firefox and it crashes. I don't know how to fix any of this. I can't even get to see how firefox has looked since maybe 2001. My upper toolbar is all different. It is all wrong and I can't find my hundreds of book marks are all gone.

I can see maybe 10 bookmarks but not from firefox.

Hello! I have multiple issues with Firefox after YEARS and YEARS of usage.

1) There is always a problem logging into sites that require captcha. This started happening a few months ago. So sites will not open in Firefox, but there's no problem with using Chrome.

2) All of a sudden, when I open and download PDFs from websites, the documents are black. I've gone in and disabled dark theme, but that hasn't made a difference. Again, this is a Firefox issue because it doesn't happen when I'm using Chrome.

Hoping you can help me with both issues. Thanks much!

The past weeks/months I do not see any square check boxes where they are supposed to be. When I click in the space where I know ther is supposed to be one, a check mark does appear, but it is annoying. Buttons remain empty visibly when I check it. No dot appears, but it does register that I clicked it. Also annoying. It's in automatic, light and dark mode the same

P.S. The same with the check box (email me) on this page, but now I see a check box but not if I clicked it.

after downloading latest Firefox, suddenly seeing a looooooooong list of commands which were not there earlier.(see on the right). all these additions are not described in the changes summary! further, the command "Take screenshot" does not work. the earlier extension for screenshots which i had is also not to be seen. so added moravi screenshot but unable to take any screenshot, full or part.

I am trying to switch back to Firefox after having used it once before. However, I am unable to use the browser at all. I have to run it with administrator permissions for it to even open, and when it does open, I am met with a completely blank grey screen with nothing but my bookmarks. I cannot click any bookmarks, nor can I click anything on the sidebar [passwords, account, etc.] I can't search anything, and I can't use direct links.

I have uninstalled four times using Revo Uninstaller, removed all lingering data all four times, refreshed the browser, refreshed my account, changed my account password, run troubleshooting mode, updated my computer, updated my drivers, and updated the app. Absolutely nothing has worked, and I am still unable to use it.

I'm not sure what else I can do.

Firefox worked fine for 3 days on my New win 11 computer. then a white screen but still worked OK .However was now loaded by a third party "quit-hp.com/Firefox and the original program has been removed from my apps. So am unable to clean up the mess and cannot block the app from the computer. My first option is to use Malawarebyte and and HitmanPro to clean up the disk or a complete uninstal and reinstall win 11. this scam is hitching a ride on firefox and pretending to be part of the installation. I am prevented from copying the full address of 3rd party to this post.

Good Morning,

Since the last update of Firefox, the functions usually availablewith the right click no longer work. And the drop down menu, the menu bar buttons are inactive.

How to solve this problem please?

I am on a web page and right click & select "View Page Source" that then opens in a NEW TAB with the source code. Then CTL F and select the string "mp3" to find. This then takes me to a position 142 characters to the right of the actual "mp3" location. Skipping back to actual location the "mp3" now appears as "blank". Very strange!!

My computer is telling me I have another device working and I am unable to update. I don't know where to go and it turns and turns and turns before anything downloads at all.

Hi, I use Firefox all the time, love it. But I have noticed a problem.

If I have say 7 tabs open, none of them doing anything, then go away from my laptop for say 20 minutes, when I come back the fans on the laptop are screaming. Even if it was minimise.

I have a fairly modern laptop Dell GSeries1522, 12th gen processor, 16gb ram, i7.

I have tested this issue using Edge and Chrome with exactly the same tabs open and the laptop is all quiet. I'm on the precipice of moving to Edge. Happy to provide more information. Task Manager now shows FF using 1223.0mb of memory, Edge 466.7mb. They are both in "efficiency mode".

Any help or advice would be great.
