Firefox Support Forum

Hello, I am using Firefox (105.0.3) on a Macbook Pro Mac OS 12.6 as a default browser. Every time I click on a link two firefox windows always open up. I can't find anywhere why that issue keeps popping up because I've used firefox nightly and haven't had that issue at all. Any help would be appreciated!

When my system crashes, the session that is restored is from some time back. I was wondering when Firefox stores its session information and is there any way to force an update? How can I insure that the new session is saved?

Here is a suggestion for you guys.

Instead of using whatever cache files you have for pinned tabs, why not put a pinned tabs section in bookmarks so we don't have to worry about something funny eliminating the tabs. Make it easy on the user and don't force them to look for session files copy/rename, etc. Be smart.

That the firefox auto-downloads cause browser/computer issues effecting usability until you install them is bad enough, but today's automatic download once installed has repeatedly locked up the browser and apparently there is no interest on mozilla's part to hear said feedback? Or is there actually some way to actually report a bug in a firefox update to firefox/mozilla?

I notice that I sometimes have as much as 14 Firefox processes running at the same time, even though I only have one tab open.

E.g. just starting up produces 9 processes, consuming some 43% of memory! I see no way to limit the number of process in Settings->Performance (ALL "solutions" to this problem involve changing the "Content process limit", but that seems to have gone in the latest Firefox version?) What do I do?

I've tried disabling all my add-ons and no luck. Cleared caches and ups-related cookies. Chrome resolves ups.com to https://www.ups.com/us/en/Home.page, but Firefox won't. If I type that full address it connects fine. Just ups.com gives a site timed out message (see image). Thanks, DougP

some firefox has kept my username and password for my bank.

i go to that page and they are both prefilled. I have tried to use the password manager to remove them but failed. I did find an entry and clicked to remove it but it still does it.

How can I get this out of the system? Pretty serious, eh?

And it is firefox, not cookies. I have a cookie manager and there's no cookies for the site.

Hello,

I recently created a website bellhardware.net and in the other browser(s) it states it is secure. Upon trying it on firefox , it states its in not secure. Can you let me know if there are any internal changes I need to update my profile on firefox to a secure site?

Thank You Elber Cardero

Ever since today, firefox has been very slow with youtube, and I noticed it's been having a memory leak. Every time I load a video on there ram usage spikes by about 1 gb, then gradually increases over time (It never goes down). Also cpu usage when loading a page is really high (almost 100% usage). How do I fix this? I tried all the solutions google had to offer but nothing worked. Never had any problem like this for over the 10 years I've been using firefox

While booting up my laptop, a series of extremely unfortunate crashes occurred back to back and ended up wiping the entirety of my synced login passwords and saved email addresses for all websites. After jumping through the multiple different hoops of profile management, json file extension editing, attempting to use a file explorer to recover previous versions of the required json file, I am at the end of my rope and worse off than where I started. Everything is missing now; bookmarks, passwords, email addresses, everything but recent history in this very browsing session.

All of my json files with relevant information are filled to the brim with null values, nothing seems recoverable and it's honestly a little soul crushing to deal with this. I read online that the the Firefox Sync data is also stored server side, and after multiple attempts of sighing into my account on different devices, I cannot get that server side data to flow back into my browser. If there is anything that can be sent my way to get me back on track, please, please help me out here in recovering my information. This is horrible. I have nothing now.

Hi. So in desktop OpenGL it is totally valid to write the following in order to flip the frame vertically into dst buffer:

 glBlitFramebuffer(0, h, w, 0, 0, 0, w, h, GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, GL_NEAREST));

In WebGL if I do this:

gl.blitFramebuffer(0, h,w,0 , 0, 0, w, h, gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, gl.NEAREST);

I am getting WebGL warning: blitFramebuffer: If the source is multisampled, then the source and dest regions must match exactly.

Similar error is reported in Chrome.

When I am looking into the related C++ code I can see this:

        if (dstX0 != srcX0 ||
           dstX1 != srcX1 ||
           dstY0 != srcY0 ||
           dstY1 != srcY1)
       {
           webgl->ErrorInvalidOperation("%s: If the source is multisampled, then the"
                                        " source and dest regions must match exactly.",
                                        funcName);
           return;
       }

I am not sure why this restriction has been imposed. GLES2/3 support this kind of dimensions setup with no errors. Can someone explain the reason behind this? And if it is a bug/missed functionality, where should it be reported?

Since the Oct 7 Firefox update (105.0.3 ) for Mac, I've experienced slowdowns and freezes that affect Finder operations as well as Fox. I have a M1 iMac 27" running MacOS12.6. It goes away by when I close and restart Firefox and/or do Mac maintenance with Onyx. Because the effect is progressive, starting mild and getting worse, I think you've got a memory leak. I 1st noticed it in a 30-tab environment. I'll see if it affects my Mac-Air running an earlier MacOS

I just signed up for Mail.com and created a new email account there. When I first used it, I received a message (not an email) that I am not using the most current Firefox, and I need to download the most current Firefox. However, Firefox's update function says I am current. Now, I am concerned that Mail.com is not reliable or safe, although it is promoted by Firefox. Can you clear this up?

105.03 on Macos 12.5 & 12.6, Apple Silicon

I recently received a SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN error when trying to connect to a Heroku site (addons.heroku.com) I think. I thought it was a Heroku problem, but noticed that on clicking "advanced" the certificate was described as being for completely different domains, on every refresh.

Shift-refresh fixed this.

Since then I upgraded to Macos 12.6, and today received a similar error when trying to connect to https://www.theautopian.com/mclaren-f1-chief-engineer-gordon-murrays-mk-i-ford-escort-is-a-restomod-masterpiece/ – again, the certificate was described as belonging to a different domain. As before a shirt-refresh fixed this.

i have a login to Harris county /toll Road Authority. A few weeks ago, it quit loading. When I click the bookmark, the tab shows motion, but after that, only a blank screen. I have tried the same web site on MS Edge, and it loads without a problem. Tried settings change to no proxy, adding the login to exceptions - no change, it still loads a blank screen. What is going on?
