I've been using FF since release #3 and like it a lot since I cut my teeth using NetScape. The past few days FF will not open one of my email accounts. When I click on login, it brings up the logging on page and then just starts blinking and will not sign me on. If I use MS Edge to sign on it works fine. The email account has been working fine for many years so don't know what to do. I've deleted recent history, but that does not help. Any ideas will be appreciated as I like FF and don't like to have to use two different browsers to do my daily tasks. Thanks in advance for any help you can suggest. I'm currently using release 131.0.3 with W-10 on a desk top PC with DSL from my phone company with the email account with their ID. My phone company does no know about or support FF.

Local server won't load

I run a Synology DSM server on my local network. The website page to load locally inside my LAN is along the lines of 127.0.0.1:1001.

MacOSX 15.0.1 FireFox(FF) 132.0 (aarch64)

Previously accessing the DSM via the local IP address worked fine with no problems. Now, following one of the last couple of FF updates, I get an "unable to connect" message.

I also have a domain that routes to my local server and I can still access the DSM via the internet http address through FF. So I know that DSM is running fine and I have verified the settings within DSM.

I can load the DSM via the local IP in both Safari and Chrome. Only FF says it's unable to connect. So that shows that my DSM settings are fine and the page is available and loads in Safari and Chrome via the local IP.

I searched the forum and found similar postings, but not quite the same issue as mine. I deleted the cache & cookies/site data. I ensured the Proxy mode in FF is set to "No Proxy". I do not have any extensions running or themes.

I am at a complete loss at what setting in FF I need to change to restore this functionality.

Thanks, Matt

The problem I encounter has happened since I begin to use Firefox on Windows 11. The same problem happened to my Macbook as well, but a workaround is available. While with Windows 11, I can't find the solution anywhere on the web. Whenever I type on the browser, if I write a non-character notation right behind the word (like "this,"), the word would usually auto delete itself or sometimes, the word clone itself out (e.g, wordword, thisthi, etc.) or it deletes a small section of words right behind that non-char. I don't have insert turning on. I am quite uncertain whether you can reproduce this error on your laptop (for me, I have been through 2 windows 11 laptop and this error still persist). This error seems to only occurs for Vietnamese (Telex and VNI) default keyboard from Microsoft, Russian and English work fine. I suspect that it is caused by Microsoft Vietnamese, but I have unchecked all kind of spelling checking on settings. So should I use a third-party Vietnamese language typing for this situation or does it caused by something else?

duplicate of /questions/1471321 thread

Hello!

A very important email folder in my Thunderbird just vanished. I didn't touch anything! My email was downloading very slowly and so I closed the entire Thunderbird application. When I re-opened it, the folder was gone. Everything else is there as before - all other folders, my inbox etc.

I have no idea what happened or where the folder went. I can't find anything online that addresses the problem or how to solve it. I'm very much a tech novice. I need a solution that a 5 year old could navigate lol

Went into Firefox and got the error message: Platform version 131.03 is not compatible with min version>=131.02 & max version>=131.02 So I'm thinking that the last update caused the error. I did a system restore to a week earlier, and after 5 hours, the computer rebooted to that date. Upon opening Firefox, I found the the notice that the next time Firefox opens, it will update. After closing, and reopening, Firefox updated and displayed the same error message. Nor quite sure what to do, I downloaded Firefox again, and was going to uninstall and reinstall. But as soon as the download finished, it loaded. So now I have the new Firefox without all of my saved bookmarks and passwords. I thought I'd read someplace that that wouldn't happen, and all of my password and bookmark history would transfer to the new Firefox. As if that wasn't enough to ruin my day, I found that the new Firefox isn't working in my wife's account on the same computer. She gets the same error message as I did before the new install. I know, my fault for not backing up the bookmark and password files, but what's my option now?

I am having a continuing problem using fire fox to access websites. I go to a site to use one of their tools and have issues using or logging in to their site. I will go to a site where an accept cookies banner should pop up to continue and nothing pops up so I can't continue. I have tried the disable Enhanced Protection with no change in results. If I use Duck Duck Go, or Edge everything works. Firefox is my default browser, but it appears that you have made a change that is now impacting my ability to use websites. Sometimes things work if I go into Troubleshooting mode, but I can't determine where the problem is. I use Norton as my anti-virus and internet security and have turned it off as part of my troubleshooting but that does not help.

Please provide guidance.

Thank you.

Since the recent update to Firefox 131, I can no longer use the Billpay option of my TD Bank account. I am able to log into my account without any problems and use all of the options except for Billpay. I want to add that I know I am not alone with this problem as I have seen several others with the same problem but with different banks. It is the Billpay option which no longer works.

As I said, the bank site is fine until I click on "Billpay", Then I get this: begin quote: "Why can't I access Bill Pay?

I have a Dropbox Paper document that I use for my bookmarks. It lists the name of the site (with link attached) and hints as to my username/password for any given site I use.

For years, it has worked just fine, but trying to solve a different problem, something happened (in my settings?) that renders those hyperlinks non-working. When I click on, say Facebook, it formerly took me right to FB. NOW it gives me a weird yellow box in the upper right corner that says "about:blank" in the upper left of the box, and 3 white boxes at the lower right of the yellow box "Allow" "Deny" "Close." If I click on "Allow," I get a blank page. My navigation doesn't seem to recognize the links I've placed in the Doc.

A friend on FB posted a link to a YouTube video and when I clicked on that, I got the yellow box with the proper URL and a white box option to continue. I've tried to recreate that particular box, but, apparently, once it's accepted, it's OK from there on out.

I have tried deleting the link from the Paper Doc and reinstating it, and I still get the yellow box.

What have I done and how the heck do I get rid of that yellow box?

When I startup FireFox, it takes ~15 seconds to show me an page. After loading, it works normal and loads pages within a second, until I completely close the browser, and then the first page again takes ~15 seconds. I've been having this issue for the past few months.

- I tried disabling all my addons - Launched FireFox in troubleshoot mode - Deleted everything in DataReporting\Archived folder - Cleaned out History/Cookies and site data/Temporary cached files and pages - Tried both Default and Max protection for DNS over HTTPS - FireFox is allowed in Windows Defender firewall - Tried setting 'browser.cache.disk.enable' to FALSE - Tried changing 'Enable HTTPS-Only Mode in all windows' to 'Don’t enable HTTPS-Only Mode' - Windows and FireFox are up-to-date

None of the above saw any improvement in loading time.

Hi, Not sure if this is the right place but here goes:

Firefox keeps increasing it's tab RAM usage when I change the "src" property of an image programmatically for extended periods of time (1 hour or so).

I created a dummy project here: https://github.com/mvandermade/example-base64-image-memory-high-native

The code above swaps out the image "src" 20 times a second. However I seen buildups with lower frequencies but bigger images too...

Here some measurement of tab RAM usage:

Measurements Windows 10: Firefox 131 00.00h 37MB 01.15h 127MB 03.00h 228MB

Edge (latest) 00.00h 28MB 01.15h 30MB 03.00h 33MB

(Edge seems to have no memory buildup as much)

Here is a copy of the code if the repo ever goes down:

<html>
    <head>
        <script>
        function generateRandomBase64Image() {
            // Create a canvas element
            const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
            const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');

            // Set canvas dimensions
            canvas.width = 200;
            canvas.height = 200;

            if(ctx == null) return ""

            // Fill the canvas with a random color
            ctx.fillStyle = `#${Math.floor(Math.random() * 16777215).toString(16)}`;
            ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

            // Draw some random shapes
            for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                ctx.fillStyle = `#${Math.floor(Math.random() * 16777215).toString(16)}`;
                ctx.beginPath();
                ctx.arc(
                    Math.random() * canvas.width,
                    Math.random() * canvas.height,
                    Math.random() * 50,
                    0,
                    Math.PI * 2
                );
                ctx.fill();
            }

            // Convert the canvas to a Base64 string
            return canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
        }

        setInterval(() => {
            document.getElementById("swapper").src=generateRandomBase64Image()
        }, 50)

        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <img src="" id="swapper"/>
    </body>
</html>

Just a observation from my side, if I can help improve things please let me know!

Bank says it hasn't changed anything, and no tweaks I tried on privacy settings fixed it. I believe it's an issue with the new version. Can you tell me how to fix it or let me know when Firefox will fix it? The site works fine in Microsoft Edge, but I'd like to avoid using Edge.

Thanks.

I only opened 5 pages (fixed tabs), and only enabled two plug-ins, Proxy SwitchyOmega and AdGuard AdBlocker. The browser was always open, and the pages were static, and nothing was playing. The strange thing is that it didn't take up much memory at the beginning, but it took up more and more memory over time. Today the system got stuck and couldn't respond (it might be that the system used virtual memory).

I used the browser's task manager, which showed that the Shared Web Process memory of several pages was very high, some as high as 4G, and the GPU memory was also higher than before.

I think this is very strange. Why does the memory usage increase exponentially after the webpage has been there for a while?

My settings and usage habits have basically not changed. I didn't have this problem before, but it has appeared in the past six months. I have updated many versions, but the problem still exists. I have always used Firefox. If it continues like this, I will be very disappointed and have to make changes.
