Forum Firefox zajednice

Please assist or advise why Firefox seems to be slowing down my system by memory usage. I have a handful (6) of tabs open on 1 browser session and my system started slowing down so I checked my task manager and it shows that I have more than a dozen of Firefox instances open chewing up almost 90% of my memory.

Please assist or advise me on how to tweak my browser to perform better, and not to show ghost instances

This morning I went to check my email on gmail, and google asked me to sign in again. Easy, I thought. I entered my account, and then google asked for my passkey. Until this morning this meant that on my mac it would ask me to place my finger on the right key on the keyboard. This morning it just froze firefox indefinitely. I then tried on Safari, and it worked as expected. I checked the version of firefox: it's 136.0.1. Obviously something changed (i.e. broke!) with the new version. Has anybody else experienced this? Any suggested fixes?

This does not work anymore and I get an edit drop down with copy, paste etc It works on Chrome and Safari. I checked the config for "browser.fixup.alternate.suffix" and it is set to .com.

I recently imported passwords and usernames for auto-fill from chrome and a few of the websites will not auto-fill my username. I have to manually type the username every time even though i can see they are saved in the Firefox browser.

Since the new "feature" profiles came out, I now always have this "originalprofile" in the browser (in the title bar) and in the Windows taskbar... It's really annoying.... Now my question is, how do I get rid of it again... on 3 more pictures, Firefox language is German...

I am having difficulty trying to view a website. I receive the following message whenever I try to view this website:

"Suspected Phishing This website has been reported for potential phishing.

Phishing is when a site attempts to steal sensitive information by falsely presenting as a safe source."

There are two buttons beneath this message, the one on the left which reads "Learn More," the one on the right which reads "Ignore & Proceed." Yet when I click on either of the buttons a blank white page appears.

The web address in the URL field also changes from the website I originally selected to the following:

Why would I not be able to view this website (and others too) with Firefox but am able with Chrome? I want to be able use Firefox, as Chrome will not allow use of an extension that Firefox will.

Please tell me how this problem may be fixed.

When using Google Meet in Firefox browser, I am only able to share my window, not my screen. When I choose "share screen", it says I must change my permissions - but my permissions settings have not changed and this is a problem I have started having only in the last few days.

I do not know where I am supposed to change these permissions settings.

I have checked my permissions in settings > privacy & security > permissions - there is nothing there about screen sharing.

I have checked my permissions in padlock > connection > more information > permissions and the only options I have for screen sharing are "always ask" (default), which is set. The only other option I have is "block" which is not set.

My Firefox browser is up-to-date.

Can anyone help? Thanks!

I can log-in to my e-mail account using FireFox "Private Browser" and all other browsers, but not from Firefox's normal browser. I receive a message form ATT/Yahoo that something is wrong with my internet of WiFi.

I have been struggling with this off and on for several months. But all of a sudden when I went to log-in the normal FF browser so I could send screen shots, I was able to log-in. Within the last hour I couldn't log-in and have did nothing but read community questions and answers. This happening out of the has destroyed my efficiency.

Any ideas?

When printing a PDF with custom page ranges, the footer text in the print preview (see image) does not match the actual page. As shown in the example image, if I want to print pages 2-16, the preview indicating page 4 is actually page 5.

So, if I want to print with a very custom range, such as 2-4, 6-10, 12-14, 16, it will be very confusing and will take longer to adjust.

And I also print custom ranges like this very often for daily tasks. I’m not sure if this is a bug or just a minor adjustment needed in Firefox’s coding. Thank you in advance for your help.

[redacted] problem you [redacted] im having issues with the video and ads as all of my apps are disabeld nothing works and firefox it self causing probs and no one is helping out.

I wrote to discogs.com support about a glitch on that site where autofilling my USA address always defaults to Guam (USA). This is what they said: Thank you for writing in! Sorry to hear of the difficulties here.

I was able to recreate the results you're receiving within Firefox, but was not able to recreate this within other browsers (Chrome, Safari), which were selecting the correct dropdown option (United States).

It appears this is an issue with how Firefox is interpreting our text fields, rather than a site bug. Autofill is a browser feature, rather than a site feature, and we unfortunately don't have the ability to modify which dropdown option Firefox selects when filling a free-text field.

For resolution, we would advise reporting this issue to Mozilla directly here:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/users/auth?next=%2Fen-US%2Fquestions%2Fnew%2Ffirefox%2Fform

If you have additional questions please let me know!

Is there anything to be done here? It's super annoying and discogs.com is not exactly a technical marvel.

Thanks d

Fire Fox - This profile was last used with a newer version of this App - Create a new profile.

After logging into my account, I saw a Fire Fox page showing new features. Upon downloading Fire Fox, I saw the the above message. I didn't want a new profile, but there wasn't an option to close the window and to just continue to use the newer version that was already installed ???

I tried Control / ALT / Delete . Upon restarting it showed the same message! I uninstalled Fire Fox, which surely has not helped things.

Am I able to restore the profile from the "newer version"? Otherwise, I will probably have to setup Fire Fox from scratch and have lost all bookmarks.

Thanks so much for your assistance. Myles

I keep getting nuisance popup prompts to sign into an old gmail account I had linked to my firefox program. I have since deleted this email from firefox and closed the gmail account but keep getting these popups asking me to log into this old gmail. How do I fix this??

Websites such as the Sites above are not working in Firefox or other Open Source Browsers. I am being forced to use Chromium in this case to complete payments and add items to the DMV Cart and complete a payment for example. I do not want to have to do this. I do not want to be forced to use a Closed Source Browser such as Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome or Apple Safari. Or, Even the Open Source version of Google Chrome Chromium. Companies like PGE are deciding to drop support for Firefox as the State not enough users use Firefox. They are forcing the market to use a Non Open Source Browser. This is a Problem. This is not good for Competition and the Internet as a whole. Not good for me as I am a Linux User. The PG&E website does not even load when using Firefox. The DMV site loads but does not allow one to complete any Payments for Example. At this time one can only view Information on the DMV website.

I am unable to request support from Malwarebytes using Firefox in my Windows 10 computer, and so I have to switch to the Chrome browser instead. When I log into my Malwarebytes account and go to their web page at https://my.malwarebytes.com/overview and then click on "Contact Support", nothing happens. This problem does not happen in the Google Chrome browser. I tried clearing the cookies and cache, and that did not help. I have attached a screenshot of the Malwarebytes web page. What can I do to correct this problem? I will appreciate any response you can provide.

I use Primary Passwords on important sites. Since v136 installed this morning, no matter what site I OPEN Firefox to, even search sites, the Primary Password is requested. If Firefox is already opened, if I open the "unimportant" site, no password is requested.
