My linux system no longer has pulseaudio installed (for reasons unrelated to firefox).

The --enable-alsa option is not rejected by firefox but doesn't work either. The only way to get audio from firefox in this install is through the apulse wrapper:

    apulse firefox ...

Note that chrome browsers have no problem with audio when pulseaudio is not installed.

Is the --enable-alsa in firefox supposed to work?

thanks!

When Firefox is on, and I shut down or reboot my PC directly without closing Firefox, it shows a problem. When I click the restore session or start new session' option, it takes some time to load the webpage. Sometimes, it takes 3-4 minutes to establish a connection. After resetting all data from Firefox, it fixes, but then it gets slow from time to time again. However, it is a problem to reset all the data regularly.

In the "comments" section of a Yahoo article, a notification will appear that someone has replied to a comment I submitted previously. By clicking on that notification you are supposed to be returned to that article and directly to my comment and the subsequent replies to it. Firefox is returning me to the articles' comment section but not to my specific comment and any added replies.

Microsoft Edge DOES send me back to my specific comment. I cannot find anything in the settings for Firefox that would control this.

Suddenly found that there is a good key is not there, and other application habits are not built, currently found four points that will allow me to replace the browser habits. 1. close the web page a key to restore, gone, although there are shortcuts, but inevitably will conflict with other software, without this very difficult 2. Open the bookmarks on the web page, actually from the original web page directly replace the original as long as the point of opening a new web page, a new window will pop up to change, it is because of this just choose Firefox, or else use Google's browser! 3. Complaints about the time of the proposal, very not silky smooth, looking for a long time, click on the input is also a problem, a problem can not be found, a ring set of rings, can not be simple earlier tips from where to send mailboxes! 4. Extensions and themes can not be used, some translations, downloads, screenshots can not be used, your purpose should be to better serve the people, if you do not allow the installation of extensions and plug-ins, you do a good job of their own can also be, but you do not have, or to build a good use of your own plug-ins platform for everyone to download the genuine, I think it will be better for everyone to use!

The above four points, I will send an email every day until March 31, if these have not been updated, or I have not been given if to change the operation to restore these features, I think I will replace a browser that has been used for a long time.

Unable to use paypal on Firefox (136.0) for a couple days. Worked fine previously for years. Click on paypal payment link at multiple websites produces a window with spinning circle which eventually disappears. No transaction is recorded. I've checked with paypal, no issues with account and no record of failed transactions. I've deleted the history cache for paypal. Still doesn't work. Paypal does work with Chrome at same websites.

I recently purchased an IMAC 2024 M4 running Sequoia OS computer and migrated my files from my old IMAC. I have been using Firefox for over 15 years without at problem. Now I cannot open often visited sites like my bank, American Riviera Bank, Craigslist and others. I just get a blank white screen when attempting to access the website. The same ones are fine on Chrome. What has happened here and how do I correct this - Its really making me crazy. Thank you, Richard Houser

Suddenly Firefox will not connect to websites,Elders weather,message states security risk.You have been connecting me for years.Herald Sun you will not allow me to log in.All this suddenly started after last update.Not a problem with other browsers.

A webpage I just closed recently is not listed in the drop down window from History and also Recently closed tabs. In addition sometimes when I click on the Back arrow, it does not go back and when I have right clicked on the Back arrow, it has shown previous webpages.

Wasted a lot of my time trying to figure out California DMV registration renewal in firefox. Would not complete transaction. Forced to use chrome instead. So, why should I continue firefox if I'm being forced to use chrome?

Hello, i am having an issue with firefox mobile for android not loading certain websites. This seems to happen randomly and i cannot figure out why. When i click on a website url from the search page i sometimes get the error message, "Server Connection Failed", and i cannot get the page to load at all. I have tried to clear my cookies, clear my cache, uninstall and reinstall firefox as well as update it but it still keeps happening. This has been going on for years to the point where i am forced to use other browsers to get certain pages to work and load properly. I dont want to leave firefox because i really need the dark reader extension app because i have photo sensitivity due to epilepsy.

Can anyone help me figure this problem out or offer me an alternative browser where i can turn every page that i search to dark mode like the extension dark reader?

Thank you!

Hi -

I've been using Firefox for 10+ years, and have not touched my add-ons etc for years. I also regularly clear my cache of temp files.

That said, searching my (vast) bookmarks in Firefox used to be lickety-split, very fast. Then, it started slowing down, on both PC (Windows 10). Then, a little while later, it started on my laptop (Macbook with latest IoS).

It's now gotten so bad that I am searching my emails to find the links I'm looking for, rather than putting my browser into a coma for a time, because it freezes.

What is the problem, and how do I overcome it?

Videos will not play in firefox. They will play in safari. I tried clearing cache and settings to allow websites to auto play video and sound. Nothing is working. It says I have the latest version of firefox. HELP!

I have recently built myself a new computer and started running MS Windows 11.

I have a problem with Mozilla Firefox, where after a few days of being installed it takes 10 seconds or more to load (or to load subsequent new windows). It also takes a long time to switch from window to window or to close any windows. Opening and swapping between tabs is immediate.

Here is what I have tried:

- Switching off hardware acceleration. - Clearing the cache, deleting all other data and uninstalling the single add-on I use. - Creating a new profile. - Using Mozilla's own "Refresh Firefox" option. - Trying the beta version. - Probably some other stuff that I've forgotten about.

The ONLY way I can get things running at the proper speed again is to completely uninstall Firefox using an uninstaller (that also deletes all the registry entries), restart the computer, and then reinstall Firefox.

After setting things back up the way I want, Firefox will run nicely for a number of days, then will slow down again to the point where I have to uninstall and reinstall (whilst also deleting the registry entries).

It doesn't seem to make any difference whatsoever whether the computer has or hasn't been restarted during that time.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Hello. This question concerns the Windows 11 desktop version of Firefox.

I have long used the Home and End keys on my extended keyboard to scroll to the very top of any given page in Firefox (Home) or to the very bottom of that page (End).

But, lately, I notice that, for no reason I can figure out, Firefox no longer responds to those shortcuts. Now, when I tap Home or End, the page may, at first, scroll up or down slightly but not to the top or bottom. If I press Home or End again, nothing happens at all.

Sometimes, if I press Ctrl + Home simultaneously or Ctrl + End the page will scroll to the top or bottom respectively.

Why has Firefox's behavior apparently changed? Is there an issue with my keyboard or operating system settings? (I use a Logitech G915 keyboard.)

Please let me know how to restore Firefox's shortcut functionality, where I can tap just Home to scroll to the top of a page or only End to scroll to the bottom of a page.

Thanks and be well.
