Basically title.

Every time I close the browser and re-open it, the favicons disappear. I use the favicons to navigate to websites on my bookmark toolbar, but they're missing from my regular bookmarks, too.

I found an old thread that appeared similar, and the solution was to take a working copy of the favicons.db file and re-import it if it breaks (while the browser application is closed). However, this did not work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This problem started yesterday. The sound in YouTube with Firefox is extremely low. As far as I can tell, the problem doesn't exist elsewhere. Other browers are OK with YouTube and other websites that have sound are OK with Firefox.

I reinstalled Firefox and rebooted the computer - still has the problem.

I'm using Windows 11 24H2 (home) on my desktop.

Hi,

For the last 2 weeks or so Roboform task bar has not displayed on firefox. It works perfectly OK with Edge. I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling roboform without closing roboform and miraculously the task bar appeared attached to the bottom of the screen for the duration of the session. I thought the problem was fixed however, when I next restarted the PC it was again not present. Any ideas how to fix this as I do not wish to use edge.

I've had ongoing issues with both TB and Firefox so I finally broke down and did a fresh install of Windows 10. OS is updated except for one KB downloading now, all drivers are updated, and I am basically running a fresh install with only Firefox and TB installed (no other apps). Firefox (137.0.2) continues to crash with these crash reports having been submitted - all today. Can anyone discern a common thread in them please?

I've enjoyed Firefox and also prefer it for viewing PDF files, but I'm having a monster problem with printing PDF documents:

  • When reading the page on the screen it looks like 01 below
  • When I try to print that page, it looks like 02 below
  • Printing it legal size makes the problem worse per 03 below
  • To get it to print efficiently, I have to put two pages on a sheet per 04 below

So to put it politely, WTF?

Numerous sites, most recently Etsy, will not give me access. The message is always this or some variation: "We detected unusual activity from your device or network. Reasons may include: Rapid taps or clicks. JavaScript disabled or not working. Automated (bot) activity on your network (IP 71.217.57.171) Use of developer or inspection tools."

This happens even if I disable Ublock Origin. The only other extensions I have are 1Password, Zoom and Undo close tab. How do I fix this? The problem does not exist if I use a different browser. It is VERY frustrating!

Recently I was distro hopping and changed from biglinux to deepin, then changed back to biglinux. Everything seems normal as usual, but firefox: I'm having issues with the scale of the app and the content as well. It should show things bigger and it's very hard to see icons, buttons and content, besides being aesthetically unpleasing.

I've tought it should be a problem with GTK apps, but I've tested others and the issue only shows on firefox. Can someone help me with this issue?

Hello developers;

I have used Firefox for long time on both Mac and Windows.

Recently, I have been experiencing the phenomenon described above, i.e., when entering Japanese text into iCloud Memo on Firefox, it appears as a double character. I'm sorry but I haven't taken screen shot.

This is the same on both Mac and Windows. It does not depend on the Japanese input method (IME). Refresh and reinstallation did not resolve the issue. Finally, I reverted to the previous version and the phenomenon was resolved.

From the above, we assume that the problem is caused by some kind of recovery in the latest version.

Thank you in advance for your confirmation and response.

As the title says -- I can no longer save images or download files without Firefox locking up. Whenever I do, the window grays out, the cursor's "busy" animation starts up, any videos playing in Firefox at the time grind to a halt, and I have no choice but to close Firefox when the "This program is awaiting a response from you" error message pops up. Whatever I'm trying to save will get saved to my computer, but Firefox always freezes up.

I've tried updating Firefox, resetting Firefox, restarting my computer, clearing my download history, changing the download folder, running troubleshooting mode and a private window. I even tried downgrading from 137.0.2 (64-bit) to version 136.0 out of desperation, and even that didn't solve it. I'm running Windows 11 Home, and this problem has only started happening in the last few weeks.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Even though the custom folder for "downloads" has been set firefox keeps creating new one in the home folder. Nothing I've tried to do helped. From the bug reports I see this problem exists in the firefox at least for 15 years! I can't believe it is still not fixed. That's kind of behavior minor enough for the developers to take care of and major enough for the users to give up and switch browsers if it is not fixed. Crazy.
