On my new PC build I'm seeing a ton of instability with Firefox. It can go hours without issue, then have tabs crash 3 times in an hour. I've slowly trimmed down the plugins I'm using, with no change. I'm also using these same plugins on my 2nd PC without any issue. I'll just be sitting there, not even touching firefox for a long period of time, and it will have tabs crash.

Other browsers (Edge, Opera GX) aren't presenting the same issue under similar use. I've run a Memtest and seen no issues, although I'm curious if my Asus board is being problematic alongside recent reports. Its quite stable with gaming and Adobe suite, so I think I'm clear.

I've found no additional driver, windows, or security updates. Windows Security scan finds nothing.

Hardware info: 13900K in Asus Z790 ROG Maximus Hero, 4090 FE, 64GB DDR5 (6400 XMP). Hooked up via 2.5G ethernet to 2.5 Gbps fiber.

Here's an array of crash reports: bp-655ac391-42a9-495f-aa44-fc21e0230528 bp-6ad77abc-0373-49b8-aae2-cc7d40230528 bp-65a453e5-4044-4cc5-8a44-5ae880230528 bp-cf346528-03d1-45aa-b0cb-0aa330230528 bp-d6df2a85-a9b9-4867-bc13-acb390230528 bp-73d54723-344c-497f-8614-1241f0230528 bp-b46f5d61-fa4a-473b-b01c-c6e0a0230528 bp-f4494a81-6566-475e-9499-097ee0230528 bp-7150ead3-434a-42bc-81c7-0000e0230528 bp-c363aead-9dd3-4b56-b602-d50180230528 bp-0d4c9401-77d3-4eca-97fc-5923f0230528 bp-6d93a733-da2f-49b4-867d-a0c8e0230528 bp-4f6fd810-a2fb-4194-99e2-dd7f50230528 bp-a4d9e2f5-f4e3-498b-8ee1-2facc0230527 bp-a6a673d3-85dc-4673-a2ed-f58680230526

All of a sudden, creating eBay listings using Firefox is not working, it just puts one in a loop over and over. I tried to refresh, reinstall, making sure windows is updated, checked for malware, virus, etc. I did download Opera and works without any issues. I also noted that this is not new as some other users have had that same problem in the past.

First image is how it should look and how it normally looks while I have a small window open and it isnt stretched. Second picture is what it looks like when I stretch it out or go fullscreen mode. I was wondering is there a way I can fix it myself or can it only be done by the author?

Moin all,

since some several weeks I'm facing a real anoying problem. Every Youtube (and other platforms) Video shows extreme brightness. It looks like as someone recorded the video directly in the sun. An example is the best so I attached a Photo with FF in the top left, Chrome in the top right and Edge at the Bottom. Only the frames have been a bit cropped for privacy.

The video shown in the screenshot can be found here. Today I also tried a fresh installation of my Win 11 and also FF (Had some free SSD around for that). But this had no effect, it looked the same. The only change I can see is when the Troubleshoot mode is being activated. But only while this mode is active. If FF is being reset or even new installation (like before fresh Win 11), no change.

Cause of this behaviour I also mentioned FF Video Stream is not HDR. The others show HDR but as not every Youtube Video can be HDR I think this is not the Problem. Anyway, I don't want to change my favorite browser which was working now for about 20 years.

Does anybody have a clue what is causing this or is it a bug?

It seems like no matter what I do, I can't get Firefox to download files from Google Drive. It loads for a moment, then it says "The page isn’t redirecting properly". I have confirmed that it's only Firefox because I can download files from Google Drive with Google Chrome. I have disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection, selecting the Standard Enhanced Tracking Protection Setting, and even refreshing Firefox. Though, I noticed that it only works on incognito mode for whatever reason.

As a professor at a large university in a college town, Google Scholar is a primary resource for me and thousands of others in this city. Doing Scholar searches on Firefox, I am often interrupted by the following Firefox message:

Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen? IP address: 50.24.52.109 Time: 2023-05-28T15:12:13Z URL: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cluster=11934070011569534288&hl=en&as_sdt=5,44&sciodt=0,44&as_ylo=2022&scioq=complex+adaptive+systems+%22concept+analysis%22

How can I stop that interruption from occurring? It does not occur on Chrome or Opera.

Thank you.

Summary: Firefox fails to load many sites, and some will kill the entire browser.

I recently updated from Ubuntu 22.10 to 23.04, which included an upgrade to Firefox. I originally had trouble with tab/window dragging operations causing the entire desktop to crash.

Removing the snap and installing from the Firefox maintained PPA fixed this issue, but a number of others remain. (Detail on this part over here on the ubuntu forums if interested)

Now many google sites simply show the loading error for ever and never recover. Some URLS can kill the browser completely. For example, this one from the Mozilla website: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/websites-show-spinning-wheel-never-finish-load The error message is attached.

I am happy to perform more tests and provide more diagnostic if it will help. That same URL works fine from the chromium browser on the same desktop systems,as does every other site I've had issues with.

System details: Ubuntu 23.04 64 bit Firefox 113.0.2 Intel_R_ Client Systems NUC7i7BNH (Intel® Core™ i7-7567U) Intel® Iris® Plus Graphics 650 (Kaby Lake GT3e) (KBL GT3) Gnome 44.0 Wayland WS

The firefox opens but takes a long time to load any webpage. It is almost a delay of few minutes before the browser is responsive. It has gone through many updates and is not resolving the issue. I have changed the add ons with no help. Once it starts loading the web page then it works perfectly fine until I close it.

I am working on a new computer with Kubuntu and have FF installed via .deb.

On my previous computer, I could drag files from the downloads dropdown (eg download a file and then drag it into gmail as an attachment).

Now this is not possible. Instead, I need to go to the downloads folder in order to drag and drop a file. An extra step and rather annoying.

The problem is persists in Safe Mode.

Is there any way to get the old functionality back?

Hello. I run Firefox as my main laptop (Mac) browser. I have added Zotero to manage my writing reference citation library, and have downloaded the current Zotero Connector for Firefox. I should be able to add references from online, by using the Zotero save icon that should appear on my Firefox toolbar. But this icon is nowhere to be seen and I cannot see how to make it appear. The whole advantage of Zotero for me as a writing academic is pinned to this function, so I am anxious to get it working. How can I get the Zotero save icon in its proper place on my Firefox toolbar, just to the right of the search window? Many thanks

Hi I am losing all my windows and tabs within these windows when Firefox does updates.

I lost 3 lots of windows with tabs just before Christmas 2022 and about two months ago they all appeared again after an update, I was so happy, then about 1 hour ago I found another update was done today 28-5-2023 and now I have lost them all again. But another group of 2 windows including tabs that I lost about two & a half month ago turned up instead.

Are you able to help me find the disappeared windows/tabs and be able to keep these windows & tabs until I am finished with them, it is very annoying

Thank you Regards, Doug

Please have a look at this link. Everyone on the team is having the same issue that when we try to play it we get this error: "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported."

This link will work fine in all other browsers. Every other video on the site (over 200 of them) work fine in FireFox, this one will not. We would appreciate any assistance in this matter.
