Firefox Community Forum

I am trying to sync Firefox data to new computer. The Mozilla account only allows me to sync mobile devices. Online instructions do no match my version of Firefox 131.0.2, Ubuntu 24.04.

For the past couple months or so, I've had constant issues with screen tearing when scrolling or with 60FPS YouTube videos. Nothing I've tried has seemed to work, and it's seriously bugging me. The issue does not seem to be present when the video display is small, but it's apparent as ever when fullscreened.

Things I've tried that I can remember, and that haven't worked: - Enabling hardware acceleration - Forcing VSync through NVIDIA Control Panel - Setting layers.acceleration.force-enabled in about:config to true

Hi team,

please help as I lost all my bookmarks I received this message and now i cannot see none of my bookmarks or extensions. "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window.

regards, Elena

My computer just installed the new update and now I cannot access my passwords. It keeps saying I have to enter the master password, but it gives me no place to enter a password. When I click the "LogIn" button, the screen just blinks.

A 'noisy' tab is preventing auto-sleep ('powercfg /requests' shows audio activity), Firefox doesn't ID which tabs have active audio. Searching for help only provides useless information, instructing me to click a non-existent button: "Visit the tab tray by tapping the number next to the address bar". I have no such button, only a 'taggle reader view' button.

Bonjour, Depuis une récente mise à jour de de Thunderbird, lorsque je me connecte (au lancement de windows puisque Thunderbird est ensuite actif tout le temps) on est inondé de notifications. J'explique : - auparavant, si l'on avait 3 comptes mail, Thunderbird téléchargeait les mails reçus pendant la non activité et l'on était notifié 3 fois, une fois pour chaque compte, peu importe le nombre de messages reçus sur chaque compte - Maintenant, on reçoit autant de notifications que de messages reçu, ce qui est très long et peur durer très longtemps si vous n'avez pas été connecté pendant plusieurs jours.

Y a-t-il un paramètre qui puisse permettre de revenir à la pratique précédente, car c'est insupportable.

Ensuite, durant la journée, ce n'est pas un problème de recevoir une notification chaque fois qu'arrive un message. Merci pour vos conseils et tant mieux s'il y a une correction au cas ou ça ne correspondrait à aucune necessité. Cordialement Dominique

Latest version of FireFox for MacOS on Sonoma 14.7.1. When I go to YouTube it just shows greyed out boxes. When using private mode, it works fine.

I've tried clearing cache, switching off AdBlock, etc.

YouTube works fine on other browsers.

Any suggestions?

I guess there was an update to Firefox today because everything about my browser was a mess! >:( I have always had the Honey and Pinterest pin it buttons on my toolbar, and they have worked just fine. Now that this nightmare "update" happened, they don't show anymore, even though they are enabled in my settings and all permissions are checked. I am NOT very techy, so please don't reply with a long technical response that requires me to spend an hour trying to fix it. The buttons showed before, so why not now?! Please help! I've cleared cache and cookies, cleared history, everything I can think of and nothing is working. :'( TIA

Problems with Firefox. Quite often it won't show an image or video. Switch to a different browser and the page looks good. Can I retore Firefox to its initial values without uninstalling ? Why do they keep making changes, seems like I am constantly having to make changes to keep all working. '

Firefox replaced all of the current passwords on my account connected to the PC. The passwords on the PC were current and have now been replaced with old passwords via synchronization. Why are passwords for a connected account in the cloud no longer updated?

I'm not exactly sure how to describe this, but I will do my best. I've noticed that since updating to version 132.0.1 of Firefox that something seems to be odd with the way the browser is behaving with Youtube. Specifically, the back button isn't behaving as it should. Instead of taking me back to a previous page/video, the back button fades out as if it had indeed gone back to a previous page on the site, but doesn't actively take me to that page. I have to reload the page to get back to that previous page. This, so far, has not occurred on any other website I visit. I'm not sure if this is a glitch in Youtube or in Firefox, however given that this seems to be localized to Youtube, I'm wondering if it's an issue in Youtube that is somehow specific to Firefox itself. I tried this on my phone, and the issue isn't happening there, just on my laptop's version of the browser. This issue was not present in the previous version of Firefox, so I'm not sure what's going on. I am on an older build of Windows 10 as my machine seems incapable of updating to a later build of the OS, but I don't believe this is the cause either since other websites I've visited do not have this issue, so far as I can tell.

Can anyone help in regards to this issue? I'm honestly stumped as to why this is happening and why it seems to be specific to Youtube only.

Hello, I have a problem with McAfee antivirus. I have Firefox installed and these are the logs from the antivirus:

Is it ok? Is this a legitimate process?

Thank you.
