Firefox Community Forum

Suddenly all the gmail attachments stopped to download. I can see (and scroll) the e.g. pdf in a viewing mode but I can`t download it. I turned on the troublshooting mode but the problem persisted. I can download the same attachment in Chrome.

Since I updated firefox, something has been wrong. Twice now it's like the browser has just stopped working. When I use google, and I change the search. The page html keeps changing back and forth between the two pages.

What's worse, is that the connection stops working. I can't get any of the pages to load. I thought it was the WIFI connection but then I started using Microsoft Edge and it's fine. It's not the WIIF. It's the FIREFOX MOZILLA browser that is not letting me load the pages. Which is annoying as hell because I use YouTube a lot and the videos won't play. Or stop loading in the middle. There has to be something that can be done about this.

Compact mode doesn't seem to work after I've updated to the latest Zen browser

Really loved that feature but both the tabs and the tool bar don't disappear like the used to, they just stay where the are.

when I try to visit chess.com, mozilla sends an uodate offer ( for browser?) but am not able to download or progress

Firefox freezes when signing in/typing username during the Gmail sign-in. Since the V..0 release, Firefox crashes every time I sign in to Gmail. I have already disabled all add-ons and tried signing in in safe mode, but the issue persists. As soon as I start typing the third letter in the sign-in field, Firefox freezes.

All of a sudden, I get a "Not enough room to save" error message when I try to download a fill. There is plenty of room on my disk.

Also, it's not giving me the option of just opening the file.

I've been needing to use Edge to download files.

bold text Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at www.googleadservices.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

Over the past couple weeks of updates, the about:processes page is now missing several elements, such as the memory usage, CPU usage, and the close (X) button for each process/tab. See attached screenshot. Normally each row would show the memory, cpu, and if it's a closeable tab, the X button would be on the far right upon hover.

Let me know what other info you need to squash this bug. Thank you!

Hi all,

I’ve been using Firefox for a while now, but coming from Chrome, I’m finding some aspects of Firefox’s cache management and tab behavior a bit inconvenient, and I wanted to share my thoughts.

The issue:

When I restart Firefox (version 133.0.3-1), it loads webpages from the disk cache, which is fine because I’ve set browser.cache.disk.enable to true and browser.cache.check_doc_frequency to 2, it will always make a request to the server on restarting Firefox with the default value of 3. However, the problem arises when I open new tabs — they also load from the disk cache instead of requesting fresh content from the server.

What I’m looking for:

   A way to have Firefox:

Load webpages from the disk cache when restarting the browser (which I want, and I have set browser.cache.disk.enable to true for this). But always make fresh requests from the server when opening new tabs, no matter what the cache settings are.

In Chrome, this behavior is more intuitive — it loads from the cache after restart but always fetches from the server for new tabs, which I find to be much more reasonable.

I understand that about:config provides settings like browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand, but adjusting this option makes Firefox fetch content from the server for all tabs, including those opened after a restart. This doesn’t seem like a perfect solution because it takes away the ability to use the disk cache after restarting the browser.

I would really appreciate it if Firefox could offer more granular control over this behavior, so users could get the benefits of both caching and real-time requests based on the type of tab (restart vs. new tab).

Thanks for your attention, and I hope to see some improvements in future updates!

I recently (A few hours or so ago at the time of posting this) realized that whenever I right clicked on anything, no matter if it was a link, text, image, or nothing at all, the menu that popped up showed basically every single possible option.

I do not know if anything would actually happen if i tried some of the options on the wrong file types and such, but I have noticed that trying to use some of the options that would appear and work normally before (like copying a link from a redirecting image), no longer do anything. Copying images seems to work, as well as cutting, selecting, searching terms on google, etc.

I do not think I did anything to cause it. I was using my computer normally for a bit before noticing and I think I would've noticed sooner if it was messed up from the start. I also don't remember if my firefox was updated recently, but there were no updates queued when I checked (Currently at Version 134.0).

The image attached is what shows up when I do nothing but click on the background image of the default home page.

When my mouse hovers over a link or changes to a new page, the URL displays in the bottom right. This is a feature i like in theory, but the way it is executed, where it displays overlaid on top of the web page, makes reading the web page and interacting with buttons down there frustrating and damn near impossible. this is especially disruptive when using applications in the browser like excel.

where is the setting to make this not an overlay, but part of a separate, bottom bar what is NOT covering the web page?

Good morning, after today's FF update - right click dropdown menus are terrible! Nothing works for me... Opening new windows, new tabs, adding to bookmarks, copying, pasting, etc... How can I turn it off because I can't use it. I need to have a menu like in version 133.0.3. If I can't change it, I will have to change the browser because I can't use it! Thanks for your answer and best regards! Arthur
