My university has a website where they publish information such as recordings of lectures. One page has several mp3 files embedded in it. When I open the webpage in Firefox, they are all loaded, which is a waste of my Internet bandwidth.
I have stopped the mp3s from playing by setting media.autoplay.enabled to false in about:config. However, I want to go a step further and prevent those embedded mp3s from even being loaded at all.

Hi Friends, I'm reposting about this, because it's still an issue, 2.5 years later after my first post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/985023 (which has been archived, and I can't post in it anymore).
I actually never read the bug report back then, because I assumed the developers would fix such an obvious problem. But if I read it correctly now, they decided not to fix it, because they couldn't decide how to fix it???
That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. But all I can do is report that I still have to unsubscribe to each new thread individually, despite having the options already disabled, and despite now having moved on from Windows 7 (which I was using when I posted originally) to Windows 10 now. Although I realize it's a Firefox problem and not a Windows problem. It's still a 2.5 + years old problem.
Also, I didn't reply to the bug report, because I don't want to register an account, when I have no other reason to post messages in the bug tracker.
Could someone please do whatever is needed, to make the bug active again (re-open it, or re-post it, or whatever)? Maybe some developer will be more interested in it now?
Thank you very much :-)

OS : Windows 7 x64 I was using Firefox 48.0.2 (x64) - french version. I manually downloaded and installed Firefox 49.0 (x64). After installation, Firefox does not start : - the firefox.exe process is running, using something between 5000 and 65000 Mb of memory - nothing else happens : the process does nothing, using 0% CPU
I've seen this issue : - on several PC's of my organization - after automatic update or manual update - after having deleted my Firefox profile - after having disabled Kasperky Antivirus
I've noticed that the last version of Firefox Developer Edition has the same behaviour : install OK, won't start.
Going back to previous version is OK : Firefox starts again.

Hello, my logitech g600 mmo mouse extra buttons do not work with firefox, and I cannot figure out why. They are set to common keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl and Alt, but nothing works. I should note it works with every other program. Does anyone have an idea about what might be causing this? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I try to have two certain websites on start-up when I open Firefox. Instead it opens 3 Mozilla websites, one of them being a start page, the other telling how awesome Firefox is and third was probably the one that asks me to create an account. After the latest update, I have to always re-do the settings when I have shut down my computer from previous sessions. This is seriously not funny.

I recently refreshed Firefox browser & found it had been taken over by Speedbit Search. When I have been using Google and then pressed the Home button to return to the Firefox homepage this was when I found Speedbit Search homepage. So I have been unable to access my Firefox bookmarks, passwords, history. I refreshed again and got back the Firefox homepage without the bookmarks and saved passwords, but I think Speedbit is still on the computer. Thank you, nick8000

This is a problem that seems to have continued through the most recent version of Firefox, and it's actually a bit worse than the previous iteration of the browser. The problem continues to be that simply scrolling through a Twitter feed for any length of time - and it seems to be particularly true when the browser tries to load embedded videos and gifs - gets you a screen that freezes, which can usually be corrected temporarily by "restoring down" and then "maximizing. Sometimes, when the browser screen doesn't fully freeze and you can see scroll bar moving up and down while seeming to drag lower graphics to the top of the newer section of page, that little temporary fixes works.
Is there any way to fix this? I've tried safe mode and all that jazz. I'm running Classic Theme Restorer as my main extension. I notice that the grey space in the tab and menus bar can sometimes mess up (i.e. looks like a ghost tab color where no tab is open). On top of this, embedded twitter videos often fail for no reason on a Twitter feed.
What kind of questions do you have for me that could perhaps help me remedy this constant situation? Anyone else experience really sloppy rendering of Twitter pages by Firefox? All of my graphic drivers are up to date, my firefox version is the most recent, all plugins (which are set to "ask") are also up to date. Currently, graphic hardware acceleration is turned off, though, I haven't really noticed any difference with this problem when it's turned on.

I've set up my first live bookmark to help me monitor product updates from a supplier. However I have to click on the bookmark to see if there is anything new. When I do there is a icon difference against each item to let me know what is new and what isn't but it's clicks I feel shouldn't be needed.
Could you make it so that it icon is grey scale if all the content has been read and then coloured in only if there are unread items for me to review. that way I can see that an update is available without needing to click the book mark every day.

Ever since downloading Firefox onto this computer with Windows 7 certain websites just don't display correctly. Autotrader doesn't display link-images and some other NSFW websites aren't working correctly including error messages and just sometimes not loading the video plugin. I want to figure out the problem but I'm afraid I'm completely inept when it comes to solving a problem beyond "disable all the add ons". I've also compared the issues with my other computer that also has firefox and it does not have the problems this one does (but that one has a very slow firefox, for an unknown reason). I'm just really sick and tired of things not working on this computer only and for no obvious reason at all. Please note that the 2nd image shows Autotrader not responding to an "input" that the user (me) makes, specifically the changing the Make should load/reload the list of "Models". And the 3rd image shows a website not correctly displaying a setting confirmation message but instead displaying an error message.

I had no problem, until I updated the FireFox to 48.0 version, and the problem was not solved in subsequent updates. The problem is still even in 49.0.1.
I am using Windows 8.1, 64 Bit. In FireFox I can not type "و". It is a character on Persian keyboard located on the right side of English character M.
Now, I am using 47.0.1 version without any problem.

When I want to select the text of multiple links, I can successfully do it for the first link with "Alt + Mouse select," which generates highlight on the link text. But when I proceed to highlight any of the other links with "CTRL + Alt + Mouse select," that link is immediately opened to a new tab after I release the mouse key, though highlighting is still done successfully.
Releasing the mouse key is the completion of a click. So the question is... how can I prevent "CTRL + Alt + Click" from opening a link? Isn't "CTRL + Click" is already there for the same purpose?
"CTRL + Alt + Click" opens a link even in Firefox's safe mode. So, it's not an extension problem.

I am facing some problem in using Firefox Mac version.
I find that one of the Java library/function in my system is not support at Firefox Mac version (The Java library/function is perfectly work under Windows platform IE/FireFox/Chrome/Safari and Mac OS Safari/Chrome).
The code is listed below: <%@ page language="java" import="java.io.*, java.util.*, java.sql.*, cerg.utils.*, com.orange.fupload.*" errorPage="error.jsp" %> ...................................... <jsp:useBean id="exupload" scope="page" class="com.orange.fupload.MultiPartRequest"/> ...................................... String proj_title = db.toStr(exupload.getField("txtTitle")); String pri_area = db.toStr(exupload.getField("optPri")); String sec_area = db.toStr(exupload.getField("optSec")); ......................................
The return values are always “null” or “empty” under Firefox Mac version -- exupload.getField("XXXXXXX"), but work perfectly under other browser (even Firefox Windows version)
What’s the problem in Firefox Mac version or How can I fix this problem?
Many Thx.

If Firefox can't find any encoding declaration in bot HTTP response headers and web page meta tags, and also can't guess, it will use the default encoding.
But there are only two choices for default encoding: Unicode and Western, as set apart near the top of the "View | Text Encoding" menu item list.
Is it possible to add more choices e.g., Japanese (Shift_JIS)?
"Japanese" has always been selected for Auto-Detect. But not much help.

Morning All,
I am having what appears to be an unusual problem with my Windows 10 system that I think Firefox is responsible for causing.
Firstly, we recently moved office about two weeks ago and as part of that process, we have switched from Australia's National Broadband Network (NBN hybrid fibre to node network) to a full fibre optic Internet connection which is supposed to be much faster. However, since the move, I have noticed that my connection speed seems to be much slower on Firefox particularly when launching, often having to wait upwards of a minute and a half for Firefox to launch and load my home page (Google) and also similarly slow when loading additional tabs or new pages. Not only is Firefox slow in this but it also causes the entire system to hang while it is loading pages.
Further to this, since about last Thursday, I have been having trouble with my Windows 10 operating system. I started the system to get the "mbr not found" black screen and after about two hours, I eventually go the system to boot. I had initially suspected an SSD failure so I booted into Ubuntu to see if I could mount the partition to test if it were working. Ubuntu could not log me in as it reported the Windows was still logged in on the SSD. Eventually I used the Command Line on the system recovery disk to force Windows to log out, fixed the mbr and got back into the system with Firefox still slow and oddly, the system clock was wrong.
The system worked fine all day Friday however, this morning, when I started the system it booted normally but when I opened Firefox, it did its usual system freeze and hanging problem and then I got the blue screen with the error message "CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED". This time however, I when I did the restart, I got the "operating system not found" black screen as opposed to a missing mbr screen. I booted into Ubuntu and got the same Windows still logged in message as I did last Thursday and then moved on to repair the system using the Windows installation disk and oddly again, the system time was incorrect. I then opened Firefox to try and do some research as to what the underlying cause as I was suspecting that it was my SSD on its last when again, Firefox caused the system to hang followed by the "CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED" blue screen. This happened twice more (once was after I installed a free disk imaging software to back up my SSD which launched Firefox after installation) before I decided to uninstall Firefox to see if that were the cause (I used Revu to rip it out fully). Thus far, it seems to have worked and I have been working off Chrome for the past few hours and it appears to be much faster and not causing the system to freeze or crash.
Has anyone else noticed this behaviour? It

Hi. The computer I'm having trouble with at the moment is a fairly new MacBook Air with OS X 10.11.3 .... El Capitan. I downloaded Firefox (48) right away when I got it and have been using it as my preferred browser. Recently starting getting alerts that I could update to Version 49. After some glitches, managed today to get the update done and even checked several times by clicking on "Firefox", then "About Firefox", and every time the pop up box said "Firefox 49" and "Firefox is up to date". However, a few minutes ago, after being offline for awhile, I went on and once again received the "alert" to update. So now when I click on "About Firefox" I'm back to Version 48. No idea what's going on. Your help would be extremely appreciated .... thank you.
