Firefox Support Forum

Sometimes when starting Firefox ("developer edition", running on Ubuntu 20.04, Gnome shell, X11 windowing system) it appears 80% full screen -ish, but actually the window is full screen size - you just can't see it. It flashes really fast, and doesn't repaint correctly. It's very hard to get rid of it as you're never sure what you're clicking on.

Restarting it a few times and I get lucky and it works. I think this problem has gotten worse over the last few months.

I believe it might be something to do with the anti fingerprinting, but I'm not sure. It's making it unusable for several friends, but I'm a bit more stubborn so I'm looking for a fix.

firefox works fine except for two sites. one is onx hunt, the other is American national bank personal banking site. the onx hunt site has been crashing for awhile and the bank site just started

Normally when I click on a pdf file in my email there are four choice Preview Save To One Drive Download And open with Firefox But as of last night the last option has vanished. I know there are some work arounds but I really need to get this option back as I work with medical documents and needs to open multiple tabs quickly and be able to copy the name of the documents something I can not do if I open with one drive.

I can't open any WordOnline documents from OneDrive/Sharepoint on Firefox. I click on the document, a new tab open, but then the doc itself doesn't load.

I am running the most recent version of Firefox (98.4 64 bit) on an iMac running Catalina 10.15.7 (19H1715)

I don't have the same problem on my Windows machine.

(Note: I was able to access the same document using Safari)

Any ideas?

several times recently firefox update changes my accounts first it was my bank account. I couldn't log in. This time it's my JC Penney account. I can't receive there ads nor can I log into my Penneys account. This is happening on both my laptop and my desktop. I'm about ready to stop using firefox and I really like this browser.

Updated firefox to 98.0. Now, when reopening firefox after closing it, it shows a blank page. Before the update, it showed the pages that were open at the time it was closed.

If firefox can be set to reopen the pages it showed when it was closed, how can I do that? The Open Previous windows tabs in General Preferences is checked…

Whenever I try to download a file, it immediately fails and does the same when clicking retry. I have it set to ask me where to download files, and the place I always download to still has around 600 gb of space, so I know it's not a problem with available storage. This happened a couple days ago after my PC had an update. It had another update last night as well and I was hoping that would fix it but it didn't. I tried downloading the same file on Chrome just to be sure it's not my computer's problem, and sure enough, it worked there. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated, and I can provide more details if needed.

For a while now, I've been unable to log into my gmail/google voice and yahoo mail accounts in FF. I've got two-step verification enabled for both. For gmail/google voice, after I two-step verify, I end up back at the page where I enter my email address. For Yahoo mail, after I two step verify, countless windows showing the page where I enter my email start popping up, and I have to close FF to get it to stop.

Help please!

Why does some douche nerd always have to chime in that it's probably one of your add ons or extensions every time someone posts about a Firefox problem? Maybe Mozilla needs to check add ons more carefully before putting them in their repositories! Most cases have been some Firefox setting malfunction for most of my Firefox issues! It's a programmer flaw not extensions I use, especially since I haven't added any new ones in forever and only update them if they quit working! If it ain't broke don't fix it! Also Firefox needs to stop changing my settings to default on updates! I had my settings the way I did because I finally figured out how to get Firefox to run smoothy with audio/video and it isn't with the default settings for those. I am constantly having to untick use recommended performance settings and hardware acceleration. I also have to go through security and privacy settings and set them the way I like them and which cookies etc. Leave the settings the way I had them! Is there a way to export my settings to a file and when Mozilla f*cks it all up for me import them from that file? Please make unticked for email me when someone answers the thread. Thanks.

I am experiencing two critical problems with the latest version of Firefox 98.0

Every 1-2 hours the browser completely refuses to open any connection. It will not even open the local host 127.0.0.1 - The browser is functional, all of the buttons work. It just refuses to connect to anything.

Meanwhile Chrome, Vivaldi, Opera all open every webpage without a problem.

I first encountered this problem with the famous FoxStuck bug. After the bug was revealed and fixed the browser seemed to be working until now.

However since version 98.0 the problem seems to be back.

If I close the browser during these outages I can see several Firefox processes in the task manager. If I open Firefox again I am caught in an endless loop where it keeps saying Firefox is already running.

The only way to use the browser again is to either restart the computer, or shut down each process in the task manager.

Things I have tried to remedy this problem.

Windows System File Check Disabled all Firefox addons Re-installed the browser over ten times - Cleaned out the residual folders Tried the Firefox Extended Support Release builds Disabled all Firefox updates via the policies.json file Virus/Malware scans Tried various about:config switches

This happens on my work PC and on my home PC. I am using two different profiles on each one.

The weird thing is it is sometimes random. Sometimes it occurs once a day, sometimes it occurs multiple times in a day. The outages usually occur from between 2 - 5 minutes.

Tomorrow I will have to uninstall Firefox at work because I work in critical care for a health service. It's vital that we can access information seamlessly without a hitch. I've had to ask patients to wait 5 minutes due to this problem.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Is the infamous FoxStuck bug back again?

Why is not possibe disable the popup window for download section? They are disturbing the experience terribly and also you marker apeearing the toolbar icon for Downloads Furthermore why are uimposing somerghinfg the for the user to change options/settings for this featue. As mentioned it is highly intervening with the product expierence , for me so much I that seriously consider chanmger my browser and leave Firefox ,
