Firefox Community Forum

Yesterday I thought I had downloaded two CDs from Amazon Music. I received the invoices for them but could not find the downloads on my Windows 11 Desktop.

I just spoke with Amazon who said there has recently been an issue with Firefox and that I should use Chrome to receive downloads. I asked for a refund instead as I value the privacy that Firefox gives me.

I am using the latest version of Firefox and am curious to know:

1) What the issue is? 2 Have others experienced this? 3) Is it likely to be resolved? 4) Why Amazon doesn't test its software for Firefox compatibility before making changes?

If I go fullscreen in any mediaplayer (such as YouTube, Crunchyroll, Prime Video or Jellyfin) I get a bar at the top and a bar in the left. You can see either the wallpaper or another programm, its like shifted to the right and bottom. I know its a problem with tunred off Hardwareacceleration. If I turn it back on the problem never occurs. I tried with troubleshoot mode enabled but there I couldnt recreate it because the problem does not occur, even after I turn troubleshoot mode off. The problem only occurs again after a complete restart of the computer.

I know there are other posts with the same problem but there was never a solution.

I'm using a Windows 11 laptop with a 14" laptop with a 1920 x 1200 resolution. I'm looking for suggestions and tips about the best layout to maximise the display of content in Firefox with the minimum amount of scrolling.

Thank you.

I would like to know how I can choose the aster PC from which firefox snchronizes on other PCs and what to do, that it does not change direction when i am in vacation with the non-master PC

Hi -- I'm getting quite a few page crashes that seem mostly tied to YouTube, although not exclusively. I only recently swapped over to Firefox from Chrome because I was having similar crashing issues with that browser as well. This is after a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro and a number of different benchmark tests (no known issues with CPU, GPU, or RAM).

Since there are so many reports that all seem different, could someone help troubleshoot? I really can't tell if it's a browser problem, maybe something with my MOBO or PSU or other hardware.

I have the problem that if a stream is playing (Youtube or other video sites) and iam on another tab that the stream stopps/hangs for a second...

It seems to hang also if iam scrolling on another site while the video is playin in a not active tab.

If iam on the active tab where the video is playing it is working fine and no stopps/hanging.

So there seems to be a problem with playing streams/Videos on non active tabs...

I testet Linux Bazzite and there wasnt this problem with Firefox.

So seems to be a problem with Firefox in Windows...

I have Firefox Settings UNCHECKED to open previous windows and tabs, yet it very often tells me it's having trouble opening previous windows and tabs.

I want it to quit trying to open previous windows and tabs on this computer. How can I do this?

I am having trouble accessing The Washington Times with Firefox. Every time I click on a story, it comes up, but then immediately the screen shades out to a gray screen, and nothing works. Also, if I open The Times website and click on sign-in for my account, nothing happens. If I go directly to the Times website and try ti sign in, the screen greys out again. This just started happening yesterday. If I go to a laptop with an earlier version of Firefox on it, all works just fine. Also, if I access the Washington Times with Microsoft Edge, it works just fine. Would appreciate it if I could get some help here.

Tonight I received a notice that a new version of Firefox was available and asking if I wanted to download it. It showed me the new Kit mascot so I decided to let it install. It seemed to install normally but when it tried to open what I guess is a welcome/new features page, it crashes, and just showed a prompt to try again. This continued in an endless loop and I had to shut it down. Unfortunately I no longer had a functioning version available that I could find so I downoaded the ESR version to be safe (ver 140.5.0esr) which I am now using. Somehow I was able to recover bookmarks and hopefully other saved info. Can anyone advise what has happened? I have used Firefox for many years and never had this sort of problem before. Running Windows 11 on a new Dell i7 PC.

Firefox was somehow reset after windows update restart. I was trying to sign in to sync, but sign in button gets blurred/disabled, and nothing happens then. I am afraid that I lost my previous session also.

I was trying troubleshooting mode too, but behavior is the same.

Otherwise I can login to my Firefox account web, and I am logged in on my smart phone still.

захожу в свой ак, но ни закладок ни паролей нет, год назад синк работал, все перенеслось, даже если и отключил синк, то должно же хотя бы годичной давности все перенестить
