Hey,

So i made the switch from Chrome to Firefox. But the main annoying thing is that when im watching a video on YouTube or literally anywhere, if i scroll down on my WACOM drawing pad/trackpad the video will fastforward, and when i scroll up the video will rewind. Its EXTREMELY annoying and i really need to figure out a way to disable this, because Chrome doesnt do this, but Firefox does.

please helppp

Firefox for OSX has been having a problem with opening in a new tab for some time (since version 98 or something). First, you can have, for example, 5-6 tabs open, then suddenly opening 7th it hangs and does not open the address. Refreshing it, the address disappears and the tab is still empty, there is also no previously visible http address. Closing this tab causes every next one to freeze. Closing another (one of previously open) doesn't change the situation, but closing two sometimes let opens another, but only one. After several attempts, we have to close another one, and so after several attempts, we have 1 open active and no possibility to open a new tab and the address contained in it. It doesn't matter if it's from favorites, google search or manually typed. The only thing that helps is to force the browser to install the old version ( 96 ) then everything returns to normal. Allowing an update to 101 or later will prevent you from using Firefox after a few minutes. Current version 111 and same problem.

I just updated to FF 111.0. After restarting FF comes up but then nothing. After a bit of I got the option to force close it. I tried opening a Private Browser and that worked fine so I figured it was one of my add-ons. However after closing the Private Browser and trying opening normally again it worked just fine. Disable all of my add-ons and for the same issue.

Renamed my AppData/Roaming/Mozilla folder and starting as normal worked fine. What a giant pain in the <bleep> trying to set everything back up.

Performed some more science and noticed this. After setting my Mozilla folder back, starting FF, and looking at the TaskManager, There would be 3 processes, one of those after a bit of time would show in red as Not Responding (or words to that effect). Clicking the window a few times to get the force close dialog again. Trying to open FF again, it opened just fine.

So I'm tempted to blame something in the update that is causing this. Yes, I could just start with a fresh Mozilla folder and reinstall all of my add-ons and blah blah blah, but whose to say that after setting everything back up the way I had it the problem won't come back.

I have thought about rolling back to FF 110.0.1, and suppressing the update check.

OS: Windows 10 64-bit Firefox: 111.0 64-bit

Hello,

Anyone else having a problem with firefox breaking itself and refusing to load any more pages till you forcibly close it? Open as many new tabs as you want, it will never ever load a new page. Open new firefox windows, still won't load anything. Open edge, chrome or IE and it will instantly load whatever page you want.

Close all the firefox windows and try and start a new one, firefox tells you it's still running and needs to be forcibly closed. Everything back to normal as soon as you do so, besides loosing literally everything you were doing.

I used to just think it was hackaday.io, but it's now clear it's entirely at random when it happens.

This is clearly a firefox issue that's been happening for at least 6 months or more. I've about had it, and am about to start looking for alternatives.

I use the IRS form found at https://www.freefilefillableforms.com. There is a misalignment in Form 1040 where the form fields for data (like name, address, etc.) are displaced from the form in the background. I am providing a snip showing what I see. I'm using Firefox 111.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11. I think I had this same problem in an earlier year.

Last week, I reinstalled Windows on my PC and then installed Firefox. After the installation, my bookmarks synced and were transferred safely to the new browser.

However, due to certain reasons, I had to reinstall my operating system again today. I downloaded Firefox once again, but unfortunately, I couldn't remember my password, so I had to reset it. After resetting the password, I initiated the sync process to recover my bookmarks. Unfortunately, I was unable to retrieve my bookmarks even though they were synced previously.

I am writing to ask about my options to recover my bookmarks. These bookmarks hold years of important information, and I cannot possibly find everything again manually. However, I have deleted everything from my old system, so I am not sure what options are available to retrieve my bookmarks.

Please help me to get them back somehow.... I read other posts saying that syncing is not a safe way for backup but I am lost here. My only option is to recover somehow from your servers but how would I do that??

If I go to "Import and Backup" I only have one option of restoration but it's not my old one, it's just the one created today.

Please try and help me to recover them.

Thank you,

It's been a while now since Firefox introduced PDF annotation feature and it is a great feature as i always deal with PDF documents that i have to annotate/sign using Huion tablet. However, when in "draw" mode, the PDF viewer scrolls along with the pen, which is makes it hard to write on to the PDF. I have no problem with other PDF viewer/browser that has the same feature.

Suddenly, I can no longer highlight on my PDFs. This occurred within the last month. It is either because of an update you did, or because I clicked on "Edit PDFs", which I don't really need anyway. But I do need to highlight existing PDFs. Please help.

Unable to load "Survey" websites. Two recent examples: https://survey.walmart.com https://survey.voice.va.gov/ (this one has additional info after the slash for the particular survey)

When I fill in a form with name, address, etc..., Firefox automatically fills in everything correctly except for my email address. Where can I change Firefox (version 111) to use the correct email address? Thanks, Dan

All new tabs give me a cursor in the ADDRESS BAR. This is unacceptable. There is a nice search window in the middle of the page, but the cursor never goes there. It appears in the ADDRESS BAR. I did the about:config handoff crap and it was crap. Is there a FIX? If so, what is it? If not, I'm using edge.

For reasons I have been unable to determine, FireFox is partially loading Amazon and Netflix and freezing. The mouse will work on closing the browser but will not click on videos or reload the tab. It's inconsistent. Sometimes working without a problem. Sometimes freezing when I first switch on the computer. I've tried everything. System maintenance doesn't help. FireFox uses so much memory, it's difficult at times to get into the Task Manager to assess what's going on.

(Memory note. This computer is primarily used for Amazon Prime, Netflix and YouTube. Sometimes Peacock.)

Trying to sync potentially added a glitch where I can no longer delete history and have to manually delete. (When I found it the other computer, it said/showed it had been clearing history. But I had manually delete several months.)

Refreshing has no effect.

I tried to uninstall and reinstall but it reinstalled the exact same set-up without a few pinned links on the new window start up page.

After the 111 update udemy just won't work (The course videos wont load ,the home page and the search all work) I downgraded to the old version (110) and it works ,but then i updated to 111 and the same issue came, And when i switch to another tab it goes loading .

I do not like the new feature where the pdf is displayed in the web page. For instance if I download an e-paper, I would like to store it on my phone and read at leisure, and displayed in the browser. Is there a workaround? to get Firefox to behave as before?

Hi. I am in Mac Big Sur and Firefox 108. I tend to keep a lot of windows open and navigate among them using the "Window" pulldown menu at the top between "Tools" and "Help". It used to be that the latest window more or less stayed at the bottom and the others stayed in order so they were easy to find quickly. A recent upgrade made it so the windows are now alphabetized and constantly shuffling. Since they are alphabetized by the name in the page title, this often offers no clue as to what it is--like it might be alphabetized under like cart or home page or main or something general like that. Also, if you have different tabs in a window, that window might jump from the top to the middle if a different tab is last looked at. Bottom line: it is very difficult and non-intuitive to find a page when you have a lot of windows open--but it used to be easy. Is there a way to order the wondows the way you want them or go back to the chronological order of before? Seems like there must be a setting somewhere. Thanks so much for any help.

OK I have been quiet about this issue for over a year. How difficult to put the cursor in the Search Box in the middle of the screen when Firefox loads? FWW the search boxes at the top of the page are close to worthless. One requires I know the URL address how often do you know the URL ? The other one is completely useless IMHO. And if it was useful what is the point of the Search Box in the middle of the screen? Something for me to Click In To. Let's think about User Experience where the application has well designed UI.

When playing videos in Firefox (on YouTube and other websites), the video is consistently delayed by about a second.

-This issue is NOT present in Chrome -This issue is present on both my PCs, both running the latest version of Windows 11 and Firefox -I've cleared my cache and cookies and reinstalled Firefox with no change -I've applied the recommended settings from this article with no change.

Note that the AUDIO appears to be in sync, the VIDEO lags for a bit and then remains noticeably behind the audio. Any advice would be appreciated.
