Firefox Support Forum

My online pharmacy, connected to HumanaCenterWell, no longer opens in Firefox. A message "forgerock, redirect_uri_mismatch" appears. It did work until a few months ago and it does work on Google.

Firefox (x64 en-US) is our primary browser on 2 different computers: a desktop and an HP laptop. Within days of each other, both Firefox browsers on the two computers began crashing whenever we tried to use them. There has been no error message. Nothing we have done has helped, though we have only tried to fix it on the desktop. We have uninstalled it and reinstalled it on the desktop. We have refreshed the reinstalled version. We have opened it in Troubleshoot mode and it still crashed within 15 seconds. Below are the 4 most recent crash reports from today's crashes:

"guh your tab just crashed" messagge crash my macbook pro. Also other programs. And yesterday i format and reinstalled an old macbook with catalina and firefox..nothing more..and the same messagge appears..c'mon guys.

Whenever I change my VPN (not Mozilla VPN) status, Firefox will refuse to connect for something like 30 seconds then times out, leaving me with a blank screen. I have wait until that interval has passed before I can retry, otherwise it will repeat the freeze. This happens whenever I turn my VPN on/off or switch to a different VPN server. It happens only with Firefox. Chrome and my email client have no problems whatsoever. I think it's some kind of DNS caching problem within Firefox as the problem doesn't happen if I visit a site that I hadn't visited very recently. There's immediate response if I do that. I have DNS over HTTPS and secure DNS turned off in the settings, so it can't be those.

Anyone else have this problem? I wish there was some way to clear Firefox's DNS cache other than having to go into about:networking

I'm a hiker and backpacker. I have recently begun using AllTrails.com to record my hikes making them easier to share with others as well as to save them for my own records. Everything works fine except uploading photos. This aspect of the app does not work at all in Firefox. It does work with MS Edge and Google neither of which I want to use.

After my PC rebooted, firefox will not open unless I rename the EXE to something else.

Steps already taken 1) Refresh firefox 2) reinstall firefox (including after wiping all data from PC) 3) delete parent.lock 4) check Microsoft account - I am NOT content filtering. I am the sole user in my "family" and the app lists me as the organizer. I have zero way to even set UP content filtering.

I am at my wit's end. I can't set it as a default browser because the EXE doesn't match.

Since yesterday (12-December-2023) and continuing today (13-Dec-2023) when I attempt to use the search bar to answer a question eg "five letter words with three vowels" I receive the message 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable. I can enter Google and can then go to Google for a search.

Hello, when I open the Firefox browser from my taskbar it does not open as a full browser page as Image 3.

I have to click on the full-screen icon twice to get it open in full screen as in Image 4.

Please can you help?

Greetings, all,

I get this error messsage:

<We are unable to complete your request. Our system is currently unavailable.Please try again later.>

when i try to log on to my USAA bank accounts.

Tech support at the bank worked with me for an hour. We changed password, cleared the cache for the bank's apps, restarted Firefox, restarted the computer, all to no avail. I declined to try Google, simply because i don't trust it. Tech support person said another bank customer had had same problem and just changed browsers, which i don't want to do.

TIA for any help.

I have many webpages open in many browsers and tabs. From time to time, FF locks up, and then the PC locks up, and the only way to resolve it, is to restart (eg: reboot) the PC.

On spotify web player in firefox there is a delay after skipping 15 seconds forward or backward in audio. Only on bluetooth speakers. But doesn't happen on Chrome. Anyone got a fix or can help?

every time I check a like on tiktok a window pops up requiring to move a puzzle piece to where it fits in order for the like to register a real pain in the butt that should not be happening PS does not happen with chrome

Hi:

  I do genealogy and often have 20 or more WINDOWS (not tabs) open simultaneously.  I also rapidly type, copy/paste, between windows, etc. and can instantly detect slowdowns - especially irksome when the mouse disappears for seconds while the system is working.  I keep history and cookies...reminds me of pages I've already looked at when color change is enabled.
  After crashing a hard drive, I finally realized that Firefox was accessing the disk WAY too much.  Even with the system static (no page changes or updates), it was continually writing to disk.  Occasionally, it would take over the disk system for seconds.  Over time (years), as you guys improved, it became less significant; just broken up into lots and lots of small accesses.  Researched quite a bit...

  Started with increasing the sessionstore interval, but still was an issue.

To solve MOST of the problem, I saw a help note. I created and set to FALSE

browser.sessionstore.enabled

Plus modified several other sessionstore items This helped a lot...

   BUT this did NOT regulate sqlite storage for third-party stuff.

This is probably handled and hidden under another config section/ keyword (not called 'sessionstore', but '??thirdpartystore??' or what?) The following profile files are still handling a LOT of writes. I use Ancestry as example (the worst offender actually), but applies to other sites also.

.default-release\storage\default\https+++www.ancestry.com\ls\data.sqlite-journal ...
or occasionally
\https+++accounts.google.com ...

Just for these accesses, looking at 100k writes every second, like pulses. This is with only one window open and a static (no change) page. What changes on a genealogy page that requires updating every second = this is a list of dead people?? Finally, my question(s): What config sections and "keywords" handle these third party writes? Any clue/hint on how to eliminate?

Thanks

When I restart my Windows 11 Asus ProArt PC or my browsers reopen, the positions of my tabs will shift around. Sometimes the last open tab will move into position one from wherever it was. Other times the repositionings seems random. I had an issue where I needed to reboot 3 times and in one of 4 windows a huge chunk of tabs repositioned in reverse order. I want certain tabs aligned next to others for my workflow. This doesn't happen all of the time if I have been in a window but it happens more often than not.

I have my browsers set up with Tab Session Manager to open one tab next to another. I also made a change a while ago to where if I type in a different website within a tab it will open within that tab instead of opening a new one. I only open a new tab if I want to.

I also find that despite having different sites having been opened in the same tab once I come back to a new session the previous tabs I'd opened there are gone and only the new one remains. That is less of a problem than tabs simply repositioning themselves wherever they choose. But if that is a clue to what is going on, there it is.

Hi,

There seems to be many Firefox processes running which consumes large amount of CPU and memory (attached) - I have only opened a single instance of Firefox however there seems to be problems with this. I end Firefox processes and start anew, however it appears the same. I restart the computer and open firefox it appears the same. I'm not sure whats going on. This is impacting my PC performance negatively.

You can see below my choices for - `1` for light, in `layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override` - `0` for light, in `ui.systemUsesDarkTheme`. - "Light" website appearance AND theme().

But why some websites still darken and blacken background ? Examples are https://superuser.com, https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com.

This mishap DOESN'T happen in Troubleshoot Mode. But I don't have the Dark Reader extension.
