Forum d’assistance Firefox

No Video with Supported format and MIME type found is not allowing me to play videos on website.

No idea what's the cause of it, I've tried everything from internet tips how to solve this.

Firefox is crashing with the following crash report bp-23ef881c-cb8d-4d69-a069-abcb70221210 would like to know the reason.

AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor 3.40 GHz 16GB RAM NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB Firefox 107.01 64Bit

I was watching Youtube and twitch on another monitor but I still had 50% ram remaining. Any feedback would be great.

Thanks

During an initial visit to slashdot.org Firefox hangs for approx 45 seconds while the status bar says "looked up a.fsdn.com." Subsequent visits during the same browser session load promptly.

This is with Preferences -> General -> Network Settings -> Enable DNS over HTTPS -> Cloudfare or NextDNS. With Firefox DoH disabled the problem is not present. [Interesting side, the machine's systemwide DNS settings are configured for Cloudfare 1.1.1.1 ]

AFAIK all other sites load normally. I've been using the Firefox DOH for several months with only the above site as a problem.

Ideas?

Environment: Firefox desktop 106.x and 107.x macOS 10.13.6 The problem is present in "Troubleshoot Mode" when Firefox DOH is enabled.

Sorry if this question has been asked before. I am quite a new Firefox user. I have set firefox to sync, but my saved logins and passwords on for example my PC does not sync to my android tablet or phone. How do I fix this?

When I press the "menu" button in the top right of the screen, nothing happens. If I hover over the button, it says "open application menu" but clicking does absolutely nothing. The same happens with the account button to the left.

What can I do to fix this?

Up until the last few months, I've been able to do a Yahoo image search, click on one of the images, and click through all the images one by one, JUST seeing the images, and NOT going to the website containing the image. Now, when I do the same search, and click on an image, it goes straight to the related website. I know it's Firefox related, because it works as it used to if I use another browser. I've cleared the cache and cookies, and Yahoo history and it still doesn't work. It was fine until a few weeks ago.

Although I have my Browser Privacy / Enhanced Tracking Protctions setting at "STRICT": "Stronger protection but may cause some sites or content to break" and with a "Heads up!" warning that states: "This setting may cause some websites to not display content or work correctly" -- I chose to enact it, anyway, knowing taking this informed risk.

However, on a site that I just visited, I received a message (from clicking on the little duck icon) that stated: "To prevent site breakage, we didn't lock ANY companies from loading tracking requests on this page". Also, "The following third-party domains' request were loaded. If a company's requests are loaded, it can allow them to profile you, though our other web tracking potections still apply."; then listed all of the companies that were allowed to profile/track me, one that included Google. There were 8 different companies, some with more than one address!

What is the point of giving us that option if you aren't going to acknowledge or respect it?

Among other things, in Firefox, the written content is in a panel in the middle of the page. At 100% zoom, the text on the right is partially hidden. In some cases, You must zoom out to 80% to see all the content, rendering the font, in my personal view, uncomfortably small.

Edge does not suffer from this.

Or perhaps there is a way to remedy this?

I have a laptop with Ubuntu 22.04. Firefox 307 from deb package works perfect. I wanted to give a try to Flatpak variant 306, which works well too, except two finger gestures back and front won't work. Scroll works. Any scheduled fix for that? Would be cool to move to flatpack completely.

I am using Virb Edit 5.4.3 ( on a Windows PC) (It works fine on my Apple laptop.) and when I import GPX Metrix I get a message stating "you are using a browser that is not supported by the Google Maps JavaScript API. Being an old geezer of 75, I have no idea what that means. Is there a setting in Firefox that I can change to fix that or what? Appreciate the help. Thanks, Robin T.

I cannot connect to Yahoo mail when I am on Firefox. My Outlook mail & accounts work fine, but not Yahoo. Ive gone in & deleted history based on self help offered but no luck.

Ever since the latest Firefox update, I can no longer log into my bank's website in standard mode. But when I tried to go in using Troubleshooting mode I was able to get in. I can also get in using other browsers. I cleared all history and all cookies. I checked and acceleration is NOT turned on. I use Windows 10 on a PC.

In some cases, if I have Firefox open, and i click on something to open a website, a whole new Firefox window opens and the old "orange" Firefox icon appears in the tray for that window instead of the newer purple one. Why didn't it just open a new tab in the Firefox window I had open?

Is there a way to fix this or a way to revert to the older version that worked well?

When Firefox is running and I lock the screen and unlock it again, the gui seems to be somehow broken. On the picture attached one can see a graphical issue (black frame) on the right side of the browser when resizing the window. When I try to make it smaller starting from the left, the window disappears inside the black frame on the right side. There are also issues regarding the mouse. It is not possible to see which part of the text is already selected when pressing and holding the left mouse button during text selection (no orange highlighting of the text). When I release the left button the text is selected.

This is the second PC with Ubuntu 22.04 where this happens. Both PCs were upgraded from Ubuntu 20.04, so maybe it has to do something with that.

Everytime I quit firefox it logs me out on all my accounts. I've tried this https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1342460 solution but still no luck, other ways to solve this problem?

Sky is a satellite television firm in the UK it also does a Mobile Phone System and Broadband Internet access.They also do email run by Yahoo. It is nothing like Skype. Now and again on the email it tells me the internet has dropped while I am using it, The PC says its still connected and the modem lights are on. If I then use Google Chrome its OK. I am not using wifi as I am now wired. Although yahoo email says "not connected" other sites are working OK. This fault is Firefox and before the last maybe 6 updates it was OK. I have been with Sky about 25 years and been using Monzilla about at least 10 years. I always delete the cookies each day.

Lately every time you release an update you break something in how Amazon is displayed. Not on all pages, the initial main page is fine, but if you try and view any lists or past purchases the display is unreadable. I've noticed this in the past, but this time it happened right after your last update, so I conclude that's where the problem lies. The attached screenshot is of my Amazon Wishlist. If you have one of those you'll notice the appreaence is way off. And BTW I was trying to delete the list, or perform any of the other actions that result in those warnings. Thank you.

Hi.

This is quite similar problem to mine: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/szmlim/firefox_sync_is_empty_blank_after_fresh_windows/

Long story short: my computer crashed. I'm using Linux, and some lib package files got wiped along the way. Anyways, I checked I have nothing important locally and installed a fresh system, because I have everything in the cloud and don't care about my local files.

In my new Garuda Linux I opened Firefox, tried to log in. It asked me to confirm by email. I confirmed the code. It said it's wrong. I tried again. It said it was wrong again. Okay, I returned the password and got a new one. It synced... and I have no bookmarks, no settings, nothing. What the hell, how do I get them back?

This is the first time I get this issue. In the past the same situation with reinstall happened to me, too. All data was always safe in the sync. I really need all my bookmarks back, please help.

I could not find any useful info in the sync settings.

Recently gmail has been running slow. It can't keep up when I'm typing. It lags behind. In fact, the editor is also lagging behind while I'm typing into this "How can we help?" form. This is a relatively new problem - the last 2 or 3 weeks.

This slowness/lagging does not happen when I run gmail in a Mircosoft Edge browser.

Has something changed with Firefox? Please help. I like firefox.

Thank you.

Hi... I have just updated my Firefox browser to 107.0.1 (64 Bit) and i now find i have this box Developer Tool Error at the bottom of the page just above the taskbar. I also have a transparent red film comes over the whole screen. The screen also jumps when trying to do a search on the website. If i try this on Opera ,MS Explorer or Edge this does not happen. I have deleted the whole Fire Fox program and reinstalled it but no difference. Please understand i am a senior and my knowledge is limited so i hope this info is enough. Thank you in-advance. Regards Al Pooley.
