Firefox Community Forum

I just installed Firefox on a new PC build and Twitch will load but just gets a spinning circle instead of playing the stream. The streams play fine on other browsers but i can't figure out why its lagging so bad/not working on Firefox. I did some digging and tried resetting cache and cookies and switched of recommended settings but nothing seems to work.

When trying to access the Tax Withholding Estimate at IRS: https://apps.irs.gov/app/tax-withholding-estimator it will not work in Firefox. I get this message: "Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)." I don't understand how to interpret the console messages.

I get the message after filling out the "Information about you" page and clicking NEXT. Website works without issue in Google Chrome.

Is there a setting I have clicked in Firefox that is breaking the website or is the website to blame?

Using Firefox 128.6.0esr with no extensions installed.

I received this message from ATT whenever I try opening my email: "Something's gone wrong. You may be having trouble with your connection. Connecting your device to WiFi could help fix the issue or try later again." However, I can get into my email through Chrome with no problem so I'm able to continue working. Would uninstalling then reinstalling Firefox help without creating more problems? I would like to continue with Firefox if possible. I have Windows11. Thank you.

Can you please help me solve this issue. Thank you

Hi, I've been a use of FF since it was Netscape (yes I'm old). And its always been my favorite above all. However, with the recent update (ver 136, either installed from a .tar downloaded or an app via apt install) it starts fine but no matter what URL I try to access the busy indicator spins but nothing ever happens. I've tried disabling all my extensions to no avail. I'm also searched for others experiencing this issue. All my other browsers seem to work well on all the same sites.

I'm kind of at a loss so if anyone has any suggestions/ideas please share?

Thanks BobMCT

I understand Firefox has always had a bit of an issue with SVG - and the 'Firefox has higher standards' doesn't really cut it.

I personally love Firefox but the number of users doesn't warrant spending much time redevloping sites to overcome a shortcoming that no other browser has.

Eg of a website the problem applies to - https://fontmellmagnavillagehall.co.uk/

Hello, there is a problem with Youtube video hosting in the FireFox browser. When trying to play a video, there is an endless attempt to play the video. Attempts to fix the problem, including using about:config, were unsuccessful. We kindly ask you to let us know how to solve this problem, given that the problem is related to FireFox, since everything works properly in Chromium-based browsers. Thank you in advance!

I can no longer open my gmail in firefox. I need to open chrome to load my gmail and I never use chrome. So why can't I load gmail into my firefox account. Everything else is loaded except my gmail.

I used the CSS animation property called animation-timeline , which is written as:

element{ animation-time: view(); }

When I view the webpage on Chrome, Edge, Opera, and even on Phoenix browser, the animation works.

It is only on Firefox that the animation does not work. I even added the Vendor-prefix of " -moz-animation-timeline " to the CSS property, and it still didn't work on Firefox, while it is working on all other browsers.

The CAN I USE website ( https://caniuse.com/?search=animation-timeline ) tells me that Firefox does not support it at all.

It however said that I can enable it, by setting "layout.css.scroll-driven-animations.enabled" to true.

1.) I don't know what that means.

2.) Would my website's users be able to see the animation on their Firefox browser, if we assume that I make this setting ?

3.) I am using Firefox version 138.0.3 (64-bit) : What can I do to see that both I and users of my website are able to see this animation on Firefox ?

Regards.

Hi, I am trying to get this website to work properly in Firefox. When I move my cursor on the chart, it doesn't work properly. I've tried reproducing the issue on Chrome, but the chart works properly there. I was wondering if you are able to reproduce this issue using Firefox. Thank you for your support.

I am encountering an increasing number of sites that don't work with Firefox but do work with Chrome. I have tried turning off add-ins without success. Is there a way I can easily reset Firefox to its initial state and then return it back.

Windows 11 - 64, Firefox with last upgrade, https://www.flightradar24.com not working. Other browsers (Edge, Chrome) do not have this problem. Other pages Firefox open normal....

I am trying to sign-in to a site we use and when you hot sign-in the page goes blank white??

The site works on Microsoft Edge so I know its noit the site.

Please advise.

Why am I getting this message and how can I resolve the problem without switching to chrome?

Chrome seamlessly harmonizes with the PowerToys FancyZones feature in Windows 11. In Chrome, I can drag a tab out of a browser window, and instantly snap it into a FancyZone. I can also quickly arrange multiple separate Chrome windows into FancyZones without issue.

Firefox's interaction with FancyZones is not good. When I drag a tab out of a window, it doesn't allow me to snap it into a FancyZone. I first need to release left click, allowing the tab's new window to appear, then I can snap that window into a FancyZone.

The biggest occurs when I have multiple Firefox windows open and snap one of them into a FancyZone. Often, one of the open Firefox windows will spontaneously shrink itself in size. When I try to manually resize the window back to normal, it shrinks further and further, until it is an invisible sliver. The only solution when this occurs is to fully restart Firefox.

It seems strange that Firefox has such poor compatibility with FancyZones, which is growing in popularity along with other productivity tools in PowerToys. Wondering if anyone else has experienced these issues, if there is any workaround, or if there is a fix being worked on.

Neither Spectrum nor Frontier will allow me to login using Firefox browser. No problem at either site if I use MS Edge browser. I've tried all of the suggestions from Mozilla on line (ex: clear recent history, check add ons, etc) and nothing has corrected the problem. Does anyone have a solution?
