Firefox Support Forum

I often leave Firefox open since I always have a ton of tabs open. Recently, I've noticed that if the app is not freshly open, like I've closed everything and quit and restarted the app, YouTube will not play and other media (e.g. the "how to pronounce" buttons on dictionary websites) just loads forever. Firefox did not previously have this issue and I could easily have 30+ tabs open and play media on a stale browser session.

Sometimes I have like 40+ pages in 1 tab. If I want to go back to a specific page in the very beginning, I have to right-click the "back button" many times in order to do so.

So how to show more pages when I right-click the "back button"? Or is there any way to go back to the 1st page of the tab?

Microsoft Outlook sign in screen does not load on Firefox. Please see the attached image. Every time I need to read my mail I have to open Chrome , which definitely I want to get rid for good. Any solution ?

Goodd day from UK I run firefox esr 115.9.1 and find the the F5 refresh key does NOT refresh the images. The same applies when using the "reload" icon in the menu.

Reading other posts, nothing seems to apply here.

There are NO add-ons at all and everything is cleared on close. The text DOES seem to change.

As a web developer checking updates this is extremely annoying as only hope is keep closing the browser (to clear everything) and restart - the loads new images etc.

I use several versions of Firefox (2, 20, 56) to ensure compatability with olf browsers and it seems to be only those over 100 with this issue.

Does anyone know if this is a "feature" or a"bug" and is there any simple (!) way around the issue?

Thanks

p.s. ALWAYS happens, not intermittently

I subscribe to The Times (UK) and use many of their different portals. I am, however, experiencing a really odd problem. For the last three Mondays in a row when I hover over a link it shows one destination which is now three weeks out of date and downloads same when clicked. When I Inspect(Q) the relevant bit of script it shows the correct page for the current week. All other links from the current edition work as expected. The link works correctly on other days of the week. The IT support at The Times have no idea why this is happening and have simply asked me to do stupid things like clearing all cache and cookies relevant to their site. this has no effect whatsoever!

How can this happen and have you any help on the subject?

Firefox browser slows down within 45 seconds and then you have to wait forever for Paige's to load this is sickening fix the problem stop the bullshit get your heads out of your asses and make this browser work for everybody, the internet is flooded with the same issues but no resolve nothing to solve the issue with Firefox browser I don't think you people care and this is on a PC brand new with lots of memory, oh yes Chrome is working like a champ go figure that one out????????????????????????

For the past few months every restart of Firefox disables LastPass. I did NOT have this problem previously. The version of LastPass is current (no updates found). I can go to Add-ons and the toggle is set to "on" but the icon in the menu bar is black. If I click the toggle off, then back on, LastPass comes on just fine. Why is Firefox disabling something that Add-ons says is loaded? VERY strange. Does NOT happen in Chrome. Thanks for any assistance. PITB!!!

When I sign in I always have to change password because FB won't accept the password I had with them I've been with them for years they send me to a box for phone number/email to verify my account. It says my account does not exist when I backspace there is a dialogue box that says the requested document is no available in Firefox cache. This is off and on sometimes it lets me in sometimes it does not I don't know of anything I'm doing differently to Firefox that would account for this missing document is this a problem with FB or FF or what? I've tried to find the cache and can't at least not so far and I can't find anything on the web that answers my problem about this situation so any help that would let me get into FB consistently and fix this problem would be highly appreciated. I have exactly the same problem with Edge, Chrome, Brave and whether or not I use privacy browser mode or not. Thanks for any help hope to hear from you soon.

I keep getting 'Gah. Your tab just cashed' notices for nearly all my tabs and also Youtube keeps buffering and finally just goes black. I used trouble shooting modebut that didn't help

Hi Collective Brains, Rebuilding my computer after a hack and can not seem to get the little house shaped (Home) button for Firefox back onto my address bar so when I open a new tab and google I can not go back home to Firefox without opening another new tab. Okay, so it's a bit nit-picky, but, hey, it's a bug I don't need right now. Can someone give me a hand, please and thank you Kate

Websites I access via Firefox constantly tell me I'm using a new device and each time I have to go through a time consuming verification process involving entering codes. I always check the box that says "don't ask to verify again" for this device, but that doesn't stop the every time I access a website verification process. I prefer Firefox to Safari.

There is one website that doesn't work well with Firefox so I use Safari only for it. Apple Care was able to walk me through a process to stop that website from not recognizing I'm using the same Apple computer I've used for 5 years and will continue to use for a few more years because it's a 256 gigabyte solid state drive with no "moving parts" that will last longer than if it was a regular desktop. But they can't help me solve the problem with Firefox which is not their product and recommended I contact Mozilla Firefox technical support for help.

I have been using igHome as my Firefox home page for many years. Yesterday when I opened Firefox multiple porn pages kept opening. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and that didn't help. I tried CCleaner and Malwarebytes to scrub any issues but that has not helped. HOWEVER, if I log out of igHome the multiple pages do NOT open, so apparently this problem is related to my igHome login.

I am using Windows 7 on this laptop and I understand that is no longer supported, but is there any way to remove whatever is causing these sites to open when I log in to igHome?

Please note this problem does not occur on a newer laptop running Windows 10. I am able to use igHome with no issues.

Thanks!

Simply help me find how to double space. It is not obvious.

I started using Apple computers in 1980. A university professor, i urged my students to buy, Mac, even though the University was committed to the other.

I am forgetting things I knew relating to computer, in this case. Your Support site hides 'Double space' why? John Klassen
