Trying to browse ebay using Firefox. The pages have become really slow when loading.When scrolling down the page is blank then slowly populates as I scroll down the page. I've just tried microsoft edge and there is no problem.

I am constantly denied access to my online banking, my bank says, because I use Firefox, and that I wouldn't have this problem if I used Chrome - any possible truth to this? Any fix? thanks

the latest update 136.0.3 is broken. When right-clicking an item, none of the choices work (e.g. right-clicking on any word brings up a menu with 'open in new tab' as a choice, but nothing happens)

I may have inadvertantly blocked Firefox from executing. I run Windows 11 on my desktop, and use SpyBot as my virus defender. Last night SpyBot may have run and prevented Firefox from running. This morning it would not open at all, no matter using a shortcut button or activating the program directly from Menu. I tried re-installing, but a window opens saying, "Hmm. For some reason we could not install Firefox." I tried uninstalling Mozilla but the window opens to initiate the process but in 20 minutes less than 1% of the procedure bar is lit and blinking. Do you have any suggestions?

My e-mail will not load sub links. It pops up a list of links not related to the e-mail. Stated when I installed avast. Took avast off. DID NOT fix problem. What now???

When I open Firefox browser around ten several weeks old tabs are there. It is not set in the setting to open. I did many attempts to get rid of this nuisance and they are still here. I Created new profile, erased all profiles, removed Firefox, and reinstalled with option not to use old setting since new installation found that the fire fox has been installed. And frustration part that Mozilla do not offer (as I know) support to fix this problem. This glitch is hidden somewhere and the program always find it an put it back. I am not sure if what to do as I run out of options, other than turn to another browser after many years using only Firefox with no problems at all. Thanks Ned

I have profiles on desktop , i had enabled sync in all profiles when the feature was first introduced. the account icon always showed that it is syncing , but in the sync tab , no visited tab list appears of any profile in both the desktop .,, i installed firefox on the android today to check synchronization but its tabs never show in desktop profile and the android tells last synchronization never....neither the desktop tabs appear in android history

In Firefox, it's possible to store logins, and then assign a Master Password to protect those stored logins.

In the newest version of Firefox desktop for Windows (136.0 - 64 bit) - it asks for the Master Password twice, even when only showing a blank start tab.

Normally, it will first asks for the Master Password, when you browse to a website, that has a stored login. Is it a bug or a new security feature?? - anyway, I find it very, very annoying.

Hi, browser movie streaming on Amazon.com Prime posts an error over every movie as of last night that states it can't play HD content due to wrong OS or Browser not being up to date. Then it defaults to SD bit rates.

I'm not the only one with the error on Amazon's forum.

The "error" which is more like a warning, appears as a bubble in the lower right corner of the streaming content (movies specifically).

Checking my router logs shows that all is well in the badlands, no warnings, no dropped packets. And as I said, streaming movies in HD was just working last week and no other website I visit is affected.

I use DRM content on this PC everyday. I don't have issues with any other streaming platform or websites. I have cleared cookies and stored data I have rebooted my system a ridiculous amount of times. I have not reset Firefox but I have uninstalled and reinstalled it, and imported all of my synced info.

HARDWARE SPECS: Windows 11 pro PC AMD Thread ripper 2920. Gigabyte Designare X399 board. 64 GB of I think patriot ram. A single m.2 Pcie as my C drive. AMD 6900XT graphics card with latest drivers. 1000 watt corsair rm 1000i - stable power. All windows drivers are latest and stable. I don't have any warnings in my system devices. I have the security feature for TPS 2.0 enabled in bios or I wouldn't be able to boot Windows 11 pro. My system is not overclocked. I can ping everyone and everything I choose to. I use Quad 9 as my https DNS. I DON"T dual boot my hardware. I don't use a virtual machine to run windoze.

I ask you, dear reader and developer extraordinaire, What have you all done to my precious internet and web? What magical and simple switch can I toggle to get Amazon prime HD streaming back?

Obviously it is Amazon services refusing to stream in HD over a browser interface. But why suddenly? This sure appears to be some kind of dark social engineering scheme to see how many are affected and how much they can get away with. But I have to check with you as I am not a programmer nor a designer.

Peace be upon you and yours. Please dump google like a pyrex pan from the oven with no mits on.

I factory reset my pc and i logged back in to my firefox account and all my saved log ins and book marks are gone did i loose them for ever or is there a way to get them back?

Every time I open Firefox, it prompts me for my Primary Password immediately. Skipping the dialog the first time opens a second, identical dialog. It's not being caused by any add-on/extension, because the problem occurs in exactly the same way in Troubleshoot Mode. It's not Sync, because I'm not signed into any Mozilla account. An internet search showed me a page here indicating I should disable Primary Password, then re-enable it. This didn't fix the problem.

Since the settings haven't given that option for years, the best way to have a local file as the new tab page was using autoconfig.cfg + autoconfig.js, as described in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1251199 But since the most recent update (v136.0), this stopped working.

The New Tab Override add-on has its own issues with using local files (can only load a .html file, no local CSS/JS, can't give a blank address bar for me to search in), so it doesn't solve the issue either.

This is very important to me, and others have been asking for this feature back for years. It feels awful to have the working solution stop working, in the browser that's supposed to be open and customizable.

I have been using Linkman for over 15 years and have a very large collection of bookmarks. Is there anyway to enable it? I'd hate abandon Firebox as I do need this extension please help.

Thanks

Not sure why, but Gmail is not loading, then Ebay shows gmail pic broken, and can't log into ebay either. I can log on bot via private window tho I have removed all ad-ons, uninstalled adblock, still no go, this happen with Some of the Firefox updates, but different sites. Thanks

Dear Support Team,

Ever since updating Firefox to the most recent version my pause/play button does not work with tabs open. (like youtube, spotify(browser) etc.)

I tested for mechanical issues, but those do not seem to be the issue, as the key itself work perfectly fine. Different apps (like netflix, and spotify(desktop)) do not have this issue.

If you require any additional information in regards to this inquiry don't hesitate to ask.

Additional Information

Firefox 136.0.1 (20250310180126) Installed on: March 12, 2025 at 8:50:54 AM Status: The Update was successfully installed [copy and pasted from settings]

Since the latest update to my Firefox, videos (for example, in documents such as surveys) either do not load or they freeze. And in some streaming applications, either they play with no sound or when sound is turned on the video freezes. This was never a problem until recently. iMac desktop (2017) Ventura 13.7.4 Firefox 136.0.2 (64 bit) The same issue does not occur on Safari or on my iPad (using Firefox). Any advice?? Thanks.

I'm using Firefox v136.0 on a Windows 11 host.

Each time I open Firefox the software prompts me two times (via a dialog) to enter the primary password. (I previously enabled and defined a primary password.) I'm also prompted twice to enter the primary password when I open the Firefox's SETTINGS page. This happens in "regular" and SAFE mode. I do not have any extensions installed nor themes installed/enabled. The only plugins that are installed are "OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc." and "Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc."

When I delete the primary password, the browser does not prompt me to enter the primary password on startup or when opening the SETTINGS page.

FWIW, I've tried the following sequence, but the problem persists:

1. Uninstall Firefox
2. Delete as many temporary files as I can in $HOME\AppData\Local\Tmp\
3. Delete $HOME\AppData\Local\Mozilla\
4. Delete $HOME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\
5. Reboot
6. Reinstall Firefox
7. Open Firefox and add a primary password
8. Close and reopen Firefox

When I reopen Firefox, it prompts me twice to enter my primary password. When I open Firefox's SETTINGS, I am prompted twice to enter the primary password.

Any suggestions as to how I can convince Firefox to not prompt me twice for the primary password when opening the browser would be appreciated.
