Firefox Community Forum

Hi Can't enter text in a site message box.

Message box appears okay after a link render and isn't a pop-up. Other routine Firefox fields work fine, any site. Works fine with my Chrome install. No cursor in the box but all other box elements interact with the mouse, like format buttons, help, resize, colour palette, etc.

Never seen this behaviour before and I have no ideas. Just moved to 64bit v150.0 on Win10. Thanks Dale

In Firefox Desktop 151.0 Beta 1, I'm experiencing a severe DNS leak even with DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) set to "Max Protection". I've tried all available troubleshooting steps (including resetting `network.trr.*` preferences, disabling extensions, and testing in a clean profile), but the issue persists. > The same configuration works correctly in the previous version (150.x). Has anyone else encountered this regression?

Hello

I have a 2021 IMAC desktop OS 13.7.8 In the last few days I have updated to Firefox 150.0 since then, my computer will not sleep if Firefox is open even if I select the Apple menu---sleep to manually make it sleep, it goes dark and comes back awake within 5-10 seconds. I CANNOT get it to sleep with Firefox open. If I close FIrefox, then I can get it to sleep. ANy windows that I keep open are windows I have had open for weeks and this did not affect the IMAC;s ability to sleep in the previous version of FIrefox. The only thing that has changed is FIrefox so I am telling you there is a problem...PLEASE fix it asap.

YES.....I have , as suggested in help sources.....done these..... 1)Settings > Privacy & Security > Autoplay and set it to "Block Audio and Video" 2)about:config in the address bar, search for media.video-wakelock, and set it to false

I've recently noticed that the minimize button on the top right of the screen is missing, all I have is the close app button and a drop down. I'm on Bazzite, I have the sidebar disabled, I've already done a refresh. The only thing I really haven't done is a full uninstall then reinstall, but I wanted to see if there was a setting I missed anywhere. I've attached a screenshot of the drop down and close app button, but no minimize.

Fox version 150.0 is consuming all available system RAM after the latest update. What's going on? I've been using this browser for years, and this is the first time I've encountered such problems! The tips in optimization guide aren't helping!

I've just opened one simple Web site (in addition to Mozilla), and already CPU usage sits at about 20%! Please refer to my recent posts here at "Why is Firefox Suddenly Taking Over my CPU?" for the problem description. I'm re-posting simply in hopes that I can "send data" on this one from outside my sandbox. Regards -- jclarkw

I cannot find the Firefox VPN prompt that they claim is in the top right corner of the tool bar & is apparently necessary to signup for this feature. Can anyone tell me what it looks like or where to find it? Thank you.

I have been using Firefox for a number of years. I use it with Windows 10. My internet connectivity has recently degraded to the point it is no longer viable. It is painfully slow and I keep getting "time out' notifications. I contacted my service provider and they suggested using a different browser. Although I was skeptical, I installed Chrome on my machine and tried it. Connectivity is back to normal. Why? What happened to Firefox? It shows as being up to date. How can I fix it?

I have noticed that since around Friday, April 24th, 2026, that Youtube videos will sometimes refuse to load properly. The page for the video will come up, but buttons on the page will not load, and nor will the video. This started happening around mid-day, when prior to it, things had been fine. At first I thought it might be tied into the 'ambient mode' option on Youtube itself., But even after shutting that off, I found it was still happening at ranodm.

Is this something new Yotube is doing in their continued (idiotic) fight against ad blockers, or is there an actual glitch in the browser or, more likely, a glitch in Youtube? Like I said, this seems to occur at random and I can't trace the cause for it. I'll include a screenshot of what I'm seeing. But if anyone knows what's happening here, I'd appreciate it.

I should add that I am on Windows 11 and using the new version 150.0 for Firefox. (Congrats on that, by the way.)

I'll be honest, I keep hearing some other browser can block youtube ads innately. (Brave, I think it was called?) and while the idea is cool, I'm not giving up a browser I've used for over 20 years for it. If Firefox can find a way to implement a similar means of blocking Youtube ads innately, I;d love it. But for now, I just wanna know what the devil is happening with the site. Can anyone help?

firefox continues to put unwanted icons on the platform even as I try to keep dismissing some of them. How do I stop and only put the ones I want there?

Tks for the help - jb

Youtube playback causes Firefox to freeze up. Just the tab that is playing, not the entire browser. I have reinstalled firefox, used recommended settings and I have no addons or extensions. Other browsers work fine and there is nothing wrong with my computer. It is only firefox. This has been happening for about a month now.

Hi this can anyone shed anylight on this please? I was using Facebook earlier today with no problem then now it won't run nor open yet it runs fine in Google Chrome. I've cleared out the Cookies ect and re-tried but its not pitching anything.

Many thanks Rob

All of my streaming services stall on Firefox in the middle of watching regardless of what I'm on hulu, disney, espn, youtube, sirius radio. It's not my internet, which I have had checked by a technican in my house. The streaming works on Safari so it's definitely a Firefox problem. If you can't fix it, I will have to move all of my services to Safari.

Search open tabs in Firefox not working it worked some time ago but now not.

I have intense work with multiple tabs so it was very handy but I lost it, I expect some about:config adjustment hints.

I'm suddenly getting a blank, white screen when attempting to open GMAIL What got broken and how do I fix it?

I verified that the exact same link works fine in EDGE, so this is some kind of recent change specific to FIREFOX.
