While working in Firefox with AOL.com email, the color wheel frequently spins in several ways: when I scroll a window to read more, when I close a window, when I click on links, even when I just sweep the cursor to a different position. I've tried AOL.com on a different browser with no problem, and I've cleared cashe and history with no improvement. The hardware/software data follows: MacBook Pro 2021, Apple M1 Max, 32 GB, Running Sequoia 16.2 Firefox 134.0.2 (aarch64)

this browser does nothing but eat and eat recourse. no matter what i do, no action ever stops it from hogging nearing 1/3rd of the resources of my machine all the damn time! And i dont want to hear virus or malware anything. i have swept, checked, and swept again. nothing is ever fucking found. And i do not trust the other browsers. so i guess i am just OFF THE INTERNET

I have rebooted.

I have reset.

I have cleared the cache.

I checked my anti-virus.

Your browser moves like a drunk snail.

Slow.

Hanging.

not responding.

I do not expect a corporate or professional response.

but sometimes a human contact is helpful.

I had to use my cellphone to submit this.

Hi, I cleach my imac cache every time I start theiMAC and also install the latest firefox version. I constantly have problems opening pdf and not it has stopped opening.

How can I fix this or troubleshot? Can I speak to someone?

Thanks

As the title says, all Google accounts keep getting logged out after I close the browser. However, if I am logged in with another app associated with the Google account, it doesn’t get logged out. What’s the issue here?

Firefox opens only to a blank page and does not function what so ever. I've tried several times refreshing it, however, nothing helps. Point of interest is Microsoft Edge won't open either and I am currently using Opera which is working fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In the last couple weeks i've encountered an issue where video footage, but not the audio or the video progress itself, will freeze if I tab out of Firefox and into a game window.

Here's a video showing the issue

Like shown in the video, It only seems to affect Firefox and not other browsers, and it only happens when I switch to a game window, not other tabs. It should also be noted that although the video only shows YouTube footage, this issue affects every player I've tested it on.

I've tried this both with and without extensions enabled, as well as just about every video player related config in the about:config page, and with both hardware acceleration on and off, still with no luck resolving the problem.

If anyone has had a similar issue and managed to fix it, help doing so for myself would be much appreciated.

For a few months I have been having sporadic issues with my cpu running at 100%. I believe Firefox is the culprit. When I open task manager Firefox is running 30 processes with power usage very high. Usually one of the top processes in the drop down is very high. To fix this I have been ending the task of the highest usage process running. In all cases that has brought the cpu down to like 10% and has fixed the issue temporarily. If I'm not at my computer for some time, it will not resolve on it's own. I'm not sure what info you need but will provide. Could this be a bug with the current version of ESR?

I have tried the fixes including: Disable/Enable Hardware Acceleration, Enable Strict Tracking Protection, Delete content-prefs.sqlite file, Check Firefox hardware acceleration, Disable resource consuming extensions and themes, etc.

I am using Firefox ESR 128.6.0 and have been for years (ESR)

Computer: Dell Optiplex 9020 1 tb SSD hard drive Inel Core I7 4790 CPU 32GB RAM AMD Radeon R& 200 series GPU

I’m getting “'Gah. Your tab just crashed’” basically every other website I open (including this one). I don’t notice anything in common with the websites I’m visiting and it’s happening in the troubleshooting/safe mode as well. I’m using the most recent version of Firefox and am running MacOS 12.6.

I am sorry if this is not the place to ask this question. I am new to web development and have been trying to solve this issue for days. I have an ESP32 acting as an http server. I have developed web pages which have separate html, css, and javascript files. These work as expected when delivered locally (i.e. I double click on the the files), however, when they are served by the ESP the style sheet is ignored and I get the message

The stylesheet (url) was not loaded because its MIME type, “text/html”, is not “text/css”.

from Firefox debugger. The stylesheet is ignore across all browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Edge), however the error is only shown in Firefox. Normally, of course, I would expect an issue on the ESP32 side, however, the non-Firefox browsers do load the stylesheet (even tough they ignore it) and I am able to verify that the stylesheet is identical to the one served locally.

Oddly, if I open a Firefox tab and load the page, switching to developer mode causes several requests for the stylesheet and the styles are then applied. Subsequent refreshes of the page causes the style to be lost and closing/opening developer mode has no effect.

Although I have disabled javascript to try fix this problem, when javascript is loaded I get a similar message (except the javascript is loaded).

I believe I specified the MIME type because I exactly coped several examples

<meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css"> <title>My ESP32</title> Thanks for the help!

Hi Community,

I am writing as recently I noticed that extreme amount of data was written on my system SSD. Here we are talking about 100-200GB of data written daily. In resource monitor I found that Firefox is writing this amount of data in its Profiles folder, but only when Facebook's main page is open. I also noticed that when only the Messenger part is open the problem goes away. Currently I symlinked the Profiles folder onto one of my HDDs so the data is being written there, however I would like to know if anyone experienced the same issue and what could be the solution for this. I completely reinstalled Firefox, my installed extensions are Adblock Plus, Enhancer for youtube and Facebook Container.

I'm using Firefox 134.0.2 (64-bit) and Windows 11. I have my taskbar set to Never Combine. I don't use tabs. I recently got a new computer with Win 11 and am noticing this issue:

Let's say I have a bunch of Firebox windows open and I want to close a window towards the right of the screen. My normal method is to right click on that Firefox taskbar window and click Close Window. But now when I right click on the Firefox icon in the taskbar, the pop up dialog box doesn't appear near my mouse cursor, instead it appears in the middle of the screen, away from my mouse cursor. It used to appear right near my mouse cursor. How can I get the pop up dialog box to appear near my mouse cursor again? See picture.

I only have 2 extensions: Adblock Plus and New Tab Override. I tried disabling both, but it didn't fix my issue.

Thanks!

I have my settings configured so that when I close the window with all my current tabs, I can reopen it and have the same exact window saved after closing them and shutting down my computer. This has worked perfectly fine until a week ago. Now when I start up my computer and open firefox, the window opens briefly and then closes on its own. I've checked and theres no crash reports. Each time this happens I open firefox again and get a completely new window and I have to go into history recently closed windows to get the original window open and then take great care to make sure the other window is closed first. The first time this happened I was really unfortunate and lost tabs I had opened for years. I would really like a functioning browser again.
