Firefox Support Forum

Firefox 100.0 randomly hangs. Doesn't seem related to particular web site or web page. Is happening with increasing frequency (e.g. every 5 minutes or less).

Browser is completely unresponsive to mouse. Even title bar functions are hung. Must use Task Manager to Firefox end tasks. is happening on multiple independent PCs.

Long time Firefox user (10+ years) about to throw in the towel and go with some other browser unless someone can help with this serious issue. Please help..

Thanks

The page https://onedrive.live.com/ just hangs,as does my personal account page, though they open fine in Edge, so clearly it is a Firefox problem and very frustrating.

whenever i want to search something, if i don't put @ (ex: @Google) it will assume that i am typing in a URL. for example, if i type "cats" in the search bar, it will direct me to www.cats.com instead of searching up cats. because of this i have to put @google before the search term and this is extremely annoying. how do i disable this?

I use Firefox and have saved my User ID and Passwords for my ATT email (https://currently.att.yahoo.com/) and my ATT account (att.com). It was populating these fields before but now the User ID wont populate and I have to type the info in. The Password populates OK. What happened and what can I do to get it to work?

love firefox as my browser, but get soooo aggravated when I have to revert to google or some other browser to be able to login to a website, tv channel, bank acct etc.

why is that? I dont trust anyone else but firefox!!!!! why cant I login with no problems?

thanks

I can enter addresses manually but it does not save them automatically. I went through and enabled everything I could find but still only the one address I entered manually. Another option I tried to find is importing the addresses from chrome but I only found this option for logins and passwords.

My browser updated and I seem to have lost all of my saved passwords. I signed in but none of them seem to be saved. Not sure how to get them back or where they went. Is there a way to recover or find them?

Hi, Could you recover for me last session, which I was used on my account? I accidentally logged off, before I opened last session on the new computer... please advice. Best regards, Krzysztof

I just downloaded the latest Firefox 100.0 on my 2020 iMac running MacOS 11.6.5. and watching youtube video that support HDR look horrible. Everything is washed out. Can you please allow us to disable HDR. I have to now watch youtube on Safari or Chrome.

Firefox spontaneously stopped working. When attempting to launch, got message "Profile Missing Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." However the profiles folder had not been moved: (Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles). I tried reinstalling Firefox. But got the same message when attempting to launch ("Profile Missing Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible.") even though the profile folder was still there (Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles) and containing all of the usual files. I then removed all Firefox files from my hard drive before reinstalling again. Still no luck (and still the same "profile missing" message). However, this time the Library/Application Support/Firefox/ folder only contained two subfolders: "Library/Application Support/Firefox/Crash Reports" and "Library/Application Support/Firefox/Pending Pings" The "Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles" was now missing. I don't know why a new Profiles folder (and profile) would not be created, but in any case, I had saved my old Profiles folder on a separate hard drive before uninstalling Firefox previously. I copied this old Profiles folder into the "Library/Application Support/Firefox" folder but I'm still getting the message "Profile Missing Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." when attempting to run/launch Firefox. This is a mystery. I have read all of the "Working with Profiles" articles on this forum as well as the "Install and Update" articles but have not been able to find a solution. Running OS 11.6.4 Thanks

Hi there, I have saved my google account's password in my Firefox account and its something very strong. Now I try to sync Firefox but it asks me to enter 6 digits code sent to my email but I can't access my email unless I access my passwords in my Mozilla account!

This extension has attached itself to Mozzila/Firefox moz-extension://b8b74ec4-b566-444c-a67b-cc919887caaf/newtab/index.html, and it's making them act negatively. Slowing down just about everything, from slowing down my bootup to redirecting my web pages and giving me logging in issues. How can I correct this issue.

after upgrading to the latest version of fire fox I cannot access the router setup page. I think that the versions after v97 require TLS 1.2 or later. My router apparently does not support this. How can I access my router to update it's firmware. If I can't access the setup pages. Is downgrading to a version before v97 an option? is there any other work around. I want to establish a http:// not https:// connection with the router.

I have been using Firefox as my browser for as long as I can remember and yesterday it became semi-unresponsive (would not load). Then after restarting my computer and doing everything else I could think of - I got it to load and my previous session was restored. All the tabs were there . . . but none of them would respond. In CONTROL PANEL I even tried REFRESHING Mozilla Firefox short of Uninstalling. (That did nothing.) I tried downloading the latest version. It installed . . . , but, the old one is GONE. The new one DOESN'T WORK. In the search box it suggests youtube, facebook, etc. . . . NONE OF THEM WORK.

HELP !!!!!!!!!!!

i want my old trusty firefox back

Hello dear firefox developpers.

Recently i realized firefox is not saving cache where it used to. that happens some versions ago to now.

By a sudden necessity, i need to access images stored in cache by facebook.

however, firefox has moved its cache, and have no idea where it stores it now.

the second point, is, if there is any way of "surf" cache, im not sure but i wonder, the cache is not what used to be, a collection of files related to what you surfed in the web, videos, htmls, pictures, etc.

I seems the cache now works in a different way, making solid archives composed of many images-videos..., instead of separate files for every image-video.

So, in a brief, 2 things:

- where is cache now - how can i access files in it, (images videos ..)

PD:im using ubuntu 20.04 PD2:have a nice day, and thanks. PD3: trolls will be attended in office hours

I am having trouble getting individual autofill entries in Firefox on Linux Mint deleted. There are a few I have in some lists for a couple different websites that have some spelling mistakes. I have a few hundred of them that are regularly used and I really do not want to clear them all and start over.

Highlighting them and hitting the delete key is not working, and using shift-delete (that works of Mac) is also not working. I have been searching and cannot seem to find an answer to why this is not working for my with Linux. Can anyone provide a solution or point me in the right direction?

For some reason my Bookmark Tool Bar no longer displays anything. It is a blank strip across the top of the screen. However all of my bookmarks can be displayed on the right or left side of the screen in a vertical format. I can not find a way to repopulate the original Bookmark Tool Bar and find the current display very awkward give the number of bookmarks I have on file. Is this a result of an intentional upgrade or software failure?

Hello. Is it possible to make Firefox Portable browser for Mac? The bottom line is to give customers a ready-made customized assembly with the necessary plugins and settings. I know what they do for Windows, but I haven't seen it for Macbooks. Maybe there is some program or script to create a portable version?
