Firefox will show that audio is "playing" but no sound will come out, unless I connect a bluetooth speaker or headphones.

Solutions tried (and failed):

1. uninstalling all audio drivers 2. checking if it's a problem with my computer (it's not, every other application plays sound) 3. enabling cookies 4. allowing autoplay video and audio 5. completely uninstalling and clean installing firefox again 6. turning off bluetooth to see if the pairing is the problem 7. cleared cache 8. turned off any adblock and/or extensions whatsoever 9. allowed drm content to play 10. allowed pop-ups 11. reset settings preferences

any help or input is appreciated. Thank you!

Click on bookmarks, the drop-down menu appears, click or move cursor on an entry in the list, the new drop-down-menu of 2nd level appears. If the list contains many entries the 2nd level drop-down menu overrides 1st level. This does not happen with firefox preceding version. Note: attaching a picture because a webm video is not accepted.

(btw my browser is Firefox Nightly) Don't get me wrong, I love having vertical tabs. It's less busy than the horizontal tabs and I can look through my tabs more quickly. But, the way it's implemented sucks - It makes the layout of the webpage pop anytime I use it; there is no keyboard button attached to opening and closing the tab (I have to go through my horizontal bar to open my vertical bar); and recently my browser forgets the sidebar settings, meaning I have to re-check the "Hide tabs and sidebar" setting.

Bonus request Can the sidebar just go over the webpage (i.e. like the application menu) instead of squishing it? I'm ok with having some webpage features temporarily covered if it means I don't have to see the screen pop into a new rectangular shape every time I switch tabs.

When I navigate to youtube and try to watch a video, the player does not load. It just shows white in the space where the player should be. No video, no audio, no nothing. No matter what video I click, the same thing happens. The only workaround I have found is that if I go to a page with an embedded youtube video, and click the "watch on youtube" link that appears in it, it will load a youtube page that can play videos normally. I can use that page to navigate youtube and it will operate normally. However if I type in youtube.com or get to the site some other way, the issue happens where it is only white space. It is very frustrating.

I use translation A LOT. (I'm learning a foreign language.) It would help to be able to move or resize the results window. Right now, it covers the original foreign language text. I want to compare the translation with the original text and the fixed size and position of your results window makes that a lot more difficult.

When using firefox, and only when using firefox, I experience quite a lot of lag when using "google docs" (https://docs.google.com) and only when using "google docs", eg. this does not apply to, say, MS Word or google presentations.

Like I said this only applies to firefox, meaning google chrome and microsoft edge both work fine.

Here are some of the troubleshooting steps I've tried, without success:

  Launching in troubleshooting mode
  Disabling 0-RTT
  Disabling hardware acceleration

These issues do not appear on my machine at home, which also uses firefox, that however is a different version of Windows, an AMD cpu and a dedicated GPU instead of integrated, so idk if that narrows it down even one bit...

The computer on which the issues appear on is a HP Spectre x360 14, which if you don't want to search it up means I have 32gb of RAM @ ~7500MT/s, and an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H as my CPU.

I'd love to keep using firefox without having to fire up chrome every time i need to write/edit a document, which, as a student, is quite often...

Thanks a lot!

I have the same problem as in jimkimbroughjr 1/30/25, 9:13 AM message about bookmarks. I have tried the steps in the response, and they do not work for me. My bookmarks disappeared this afternoon, although they were all there this morning. I went to some sites I remembered, and only one had the blue star in the menu bar. Trying to recover the bookmarks through Settings did not work, even when I saved a bookmarks backup file to HTML and tried to import that. Troubleshooting information should be below. I had to use the manual method and I hope I copied and pasted the data correctly. Back to the bookmark problem: Now what?

Up until recently if I suspected a javascript error all I needed to do was type Ctrl-Shift-K and the console would display showing me javascript errors. With the most recent update of Firefox that doesn't happen. I can bring up the console but there are no errors displayed.

Thanks in advance, Paul

PS. a topic called "Debugging issues" of something similar should be added to the topic dropdown list.

I have a HUGE problem with Firefox memory usage. Some open instances of firefox are taking anywhere from 600mb to 2.8gb of memory. Since firefox opens MANY instances even with only ONE active window, this very quickly uses all available memory (4gb) causing a full laptop crash.

More concerning is that CLOSING the worst instance of memory usage STILL leaves the single open page/tab open, so what exactly was the memory eating instance actually doing ???

I have included a screengrab of the many remaining instances of firefox in windows task manager AFTER closing the main culprit.

I have also included a screengrab of all the adblockers I use which I believed would limit unnecessary memory usage, but does not seem to be effective.

Many Thanks
