I've been having issues logging in to my Instagram account through the Firefox browser. I've tried entering the password manually, clearing cache+cookies, opening in troubleshoot mode, and turning off the enhanced tracking mode (in case that might've been causing the issue) all to no success. This has been an issue since I started using Firefox as my default browser about 2 months ago.

Since update to latest version of Firefox, I cannot access content on Facebook. All I get after long wait is the blank screen with the Facebook logo in the middle and Meta logo at the bottom. No problem before update. Other sites seem OK but take much longer to load. I can get Facebook with MS Edge. I'm using Windows 10 on PC.

Hello everyone. From a while now that I need to change to Google Chrome everytime I want to put my credit card details to buy something online. Simply because the text boxes in Firefox don't show. They're simply not there. There are very few websites where they show up for half a second and disappear right after. I've tried disabling "enhanced tracking protection", disabling all my plug-ins, changing the "hardware performance" option, cleaning cache and cookies. Nothing seems to work. I'm going crazy because I like firefox and I want to work always in this one browser, not changing each time I want to do a different task. Similar thing happens with some websites when they freeze before you explore them and the pop-up window comes asking you about the cookies. But some of these, the window disappears right away, so I can see the page but it's stuck, because I didn't manage to accept the cookies option

Please, can you advise me what can I do? It's getting very frustrating, I'm really considering moving everything to Chrome and I don't want to. Thank you.

Bellow you see an example of Firefox page and Chrome.

Hi, I recently visited what I thought was a valid website only to get bombarded with ransomware popups. They state that my McAfee account has expired, an account that I never had, and they insist that I click their link to repair it. It doesn't appear to be a hack or that it is currently mining any info from my account. Obviously, I know better than to click on the link ( one of which is: d3venj8hubcc73ch6bp0.texonnerro.co.in TROJAN VIRUS FOUND Click here to secure your data. There are 4 different messages but all have the same URL address). It's really just annoying at this point. Also, it is specific to my Firefox browser. I have no issues when I use MS Edge. I looked to see if I could uninstall Firefox but did not find any way to do that. I know I would lose all my settings, etc doing that, but if that's the only solution, then so be it. Any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

The attached image is one of the messages. They're using your logo to make it look authentic

Thank you.

My FF just updated to v145 (no errors) Now, in Facebook, when I click on comments the field is not displayed. If I close and restart FF, the first time I click on comments the comment field shows as normal, but any subsequent attempts the comment field is no longer visible.

I recently asked a question about having a problem with Firefox not successfully loading a second webpage tab. While it appears to start loading correctly in a new tab the tab remains a blank page and the address window continues to appear that the loading process is ongoing but it just continues to show the apparent loading process but the network has no activity. I tried following some suggestions but to no avail. I then uninstalled Firefox and did a clean, new install. Upon trying the new install it appeared to work correctly at first but after attempted to do a second Google image search, which worked correctly, I tried to visit the site that what contained the original image. The site partially loaded; appeared to keep loading for about 15 minutes; stopped; and I got a partially installed page and even that wasn’t correct as can be seen in the enclosed images.

I use the default setting that all cookies be deleted when I shut down Firefox, and then hand-input dozens of exceptions. The Firefox update on November 11, 2025 -- and I didn't even click on install, I only downloaded it, then hesitated, being afraid that it costs me again hours to re-create what the update destroys, but Firefox went from download to automatic installation -- meant that Firefox wiped all cookie exceptions (list of cookies that are not deleted when I shut down Firefox). These exceptions are hours of work, and, additionally, every bank etc. now requires me to sign in and go through many-factor authentication anew. -- How do I restore the long list of cookie exceptions that the Firefox update just deleted?

+ The same update wiped all bookmark icons. My three dozen bookmarks in the bookmark toolbar now come with the 'globe' symbol rather than the bookmark-specific symbol, so I can't tell which bookmark is which. How do I restore the bookmark symbols that the Firefox update just destroyed?

Hi!

I am having a problem with Firefox where: - if I am searching in the address bar in one tab (tab A), - but then before that finishes loading, I switch to a different tab (tab B), - Firefox will switch me back to tab A once tab A finishes loading. It's not immediate and is a little aggravating as it pushes me out of what I was already doing.

I'm currently on Firefox Beta (145.0) on Windows 11. I've tried the "When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately" setting.

Guten Tag,

Im Firefox Developer habe ich seit ca. einer Woche das Problem, das die Lesezeichen nicht mhr funktionieren. Kann weder etwas anzeigen lassen, hinzufügen noch importieren.

Das zweite Problem habe ich heute 07.11.2025 festgestellt, habe einen neuen Tap geöffnet und es werde auf einmal die gespeicherten Webseiten nicht mehr angezeigt.

Was kann ich tun? Developer habe ich gelöscht und wider installiert, auch resettet, doch es geht nicht. Auf der zweiten Firefox Brwoser habe ich zwar die Lesezeichen, doch kann keine Webseite mehr hinzufügen. Auch bei öffnen eines neuen Taps, sind die gespeicherten Webseiten verschwunden.
