Firefox Community Forum

Just recently I changed my privacy settings to take advantage of the privacy opt-out option for websites not to share my data or information. I went to my AMX credit card account and now every time I move to a new page the message, "Your Global Privacy Control opt-out signal has been honored" pops up and gets in the way of the information on the page. I am constantly having to click on the X in the corner to close the message box. Once would be enough for each main website. Having it pop up every time is absolutely annoying. I like having this option but if it's going to make me have to close the informational box every time I move to a new page or back to a former page, then I will have to undo the choice. The web designer who put this message text into the Firefox browser needs to find a way to only have it pop up once if they feel it is really necessary to tell me that they are blocking information from other companies. I really don't even need the first message just as long as it works behind the scenes. I hope someone gets web support to look into this issue. It's just so annoying.

Using your browser as my default and going to https://bracingviews.substack.com/p/yes-its-about-the-oil, https://jonathancook.substack.com/p/western-elites-fear-a-globalised and https://georgehazim.substack.com/p/murdochs-australian-manufacturing, regular sites where I comment often, since Thursday there's no visible button to post my comment. Never encountered that before.

Using another browser, I can comment in Jonathan Cook and George Hazim's Blog but not in Bracing Views

Moderator note: This question has been edited to fix a link.

When reading the New York Times, on any page but the first, links do not work.

This problem does not occur in Troubleshooting mode, which I understand means some setting or extension is causing the problem.

How do I find out which setting or extension to change?

When I select a YouTube home page video mute icon, for sound on a preview, it pops up a mini-player, a notice that I have "saved to watch later," or toggles the mute as expected. Intermittent and unpredictable. I can select one mute icon that toggles the sound, and the preview beside it pops up a watch later.

Win10, Firefox 152.0.6 (64-bit) today, but this has been with me about the last two iterations.

I ran though eleventy-billion experiments and there was no effect from any toggling of settings, add-ons, file deletions, toggled logouts, forced refreshes, you name it. The single positive is that the keyboard "m" works fine to toggle mute in a video page playback, but not the previews at home. I followed AI advice after I gave up on my own ideas, and after recommending everything under the sun the only conclusion offered was related to failed mouse tracking, which is nuts to me. Everything works fine except this YouTube oddity, including videos or sound output on other sites. I was actually surprised that nothing changed YouTube behaviour after my freaking out on FF details; doesn't mean the trick isn't in there somewhere.

In simple terms, I have not read reports of this problem and I have no idea how to proceed.

Two QNAP NAS displayed readable web pages this morning. Early afternoon I updated Firefox with a reset and the admin pages on both servers are unusable. How can I roll back Firefox or recover the earlier version?

Lately , when accessing some sites , I have been getting a blank screen with a video ad for Pandora Jewelry in the upper left corner. It takes over the tab a few seconds after opening the site. Does not seem to affect most sites (yet). Did a virus scan and a Malwarebytes scan. Both came up clean. Cookies and cache were deleted and the system rebooted. No luck. Tried restarting FF without extensions with the same results. The screen does not allow a screen shot.

Anyone else seeing this? Any clues? I am using Windows 11 Pro.

I use Arcgis quite a bit for property info and for the last several months, it either won't fully load or has constant freezes when doing anything. It also freezes other windows I have open and most the time when I shut down those windows and start FireFox again, my home screen (Start Page) won't load? I have to dump history/cookies and sometimes flush dns. I contacted ArcGis and they say it works fine on their end. So I suspect FireFox is the issue.

I downloaded the Opera browser last night and it has no problems with this site. I won't use chrome or edge.

Any help figuring out what's going on? I have changed no settings, no vpn, no private browsing either. It seems with each FireFox update, my issues get worse?

Win 10 on desktop. FF version 145.0.1 the site in question https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/ba70b3d86f5e4bbeb7582591f3dde16a/

im using firefox on windows11. youtube does not load and says no internet connection but other websites work fine. i tried syncing time udating the browser and checking DNS. Still not fixed. What else can i do

I routinely keep a tab open to view my iCloud account (PC running Windows 10 Pro).

Everything has worked just fine in the past. Here are the basics using Edge... -The home page displays like the first attachment. -Clicking an icon takes me to the calendar page (see the Edge screenshot in the second attachment) -Clicking the word, 'iCloud' (see yellow arrow in second attachment) returns me to the home page.

But now, using Firefox, if I click the calendar icon (or any other) the calendar return link and Calendar page title are superimposed over one another and the return link does not work. -Check out the yellow arrow in the third attachment -If I click the iCloud/Calendar mishmash I get nothing. If I click left arrow or Back I get nothing.

Note that this still works fine with Edge but does not work with Firefox. Please note also that this happens on a different PC running Windows 11 Home. Have tried clearing Firefox cache (no change) but don't know what else to try.

Any ideas?

I'm not sure why, but starting a couple of days ago Firefox will not load a couple (there may be others) of my regularly used sites - the page just 'hangs' or only partially loads:

facebook.com theguardian.com

These are on my Windows 11 PC which I use 95% of the time. They load fine on my Windows 10 laptop which has the identical Firefox settings (they are Synced) with the same Extensions.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox on my PC to see if this helps, but the issue remains.

The websites load fine using Chrome on my PC.

Can anyone offer any thoughts as to why this is happeneing and offer any solutions?

Since update to latest version of Firefox, I cannot access content on Facebook. All I get after long wait is the blank screen with the Facebook logo in the middle and Meta logo at the bottom. No problem before update. Other sites seem OK but take much longer to load. I can get Facebook with MS Edge. I'm using Windows 10 on PC.

This is a weird one for me. Firefox 142.0.1 Windows 10 Pro 22H2 AdBlock Plus and NoScript as add-ons

https://tvlistings.gracenote.com/grid-affiliates.html?aid=tribnyc2dl

shows me as automatically logged into the site but will not load the TV listings for me in a normal window.

But if I use the same link in a private window it asks for my user name and password then shows the TV listings and continues to work as it always has.

What could possibly cause this? Has only happened for the last 4 days.

When browsing on IMDb (see image attached) when I click on the "See All" button just above "Soundtrack" at the bottom of the image nothing happens. This should expand the list above it, in the case an actor's credits. I have NoScript 13.5.2 installed but all scripts are allowed here. I get this on all the IMDb pages.
