A few weeks ago I started having occasional problems with access to sites protected by reCAPTCHA. I would get error messages about not being able to connect to reCAPTCHA. Switch to Edge, no problem. This would change from day to day. Sometimes it all works, other times it doesn't, still. Then I started to notice that Google searches in Firefox would sometimes take a long time and eventually fail. Try it a few minutes later sometimes, no problem, instant results. Erratic. Never know when it's going to work and when it's not. Switch to Bing, good to go, always. Google Maps sometimes loads right away, other times it is very slow and may never completely load. Finally, I've noticed that some non-Google sites sometimes load slowly or stall out altogether, commonly with a "Waiting for www.googletagmanager.com" message at the bottom left. I haven't encountered any of these issues in Edge, though granted I seldom use it unless I'm having trouble with Firefox.

This weekend, I did a full computer rebuild, which involved a clean install of Firefox. I was hoping that something in Firefox had got corrupted in my old computer and that the rebuild would take care of it. But, no. Same as before. If this were a problem on Google's end, I'd expect a big howl. As it stands, I think it probably must be Firefox that's at fault.

Anyhow, before I try to submit a bug report, has anyone else experienced this? Better yet, does anyone know a cure?

Thanks.

All of a sudden I am having problems loading pages, links, etc. I'm having to use Microsoft Edge now. I've been using Firefox for many years but now stuff doesn't work anymore. I can't watch movies on paramount plus without getting an error code. I'm technology challenged so I can't give much detail.

I am unable to log into Strava.com on my PC or lap top. Both run Windows 11, are completely updated. I receive an error message:'Unexpected error has occurred. Please try again'. I have gone to tools/privacy/passwords and insured that they are correct. My wife has a Dell laptop that runs Windows 11 and Firefox and I was also unable to log in to Strava on this machine. I don't think that I had this problem with my PC before purchasing a new PC because the old one could only run Windows 10.

Long-time Firefox user here, with a mega frustrating issue I've had for months now. I keep my default Firefox container for corporate / work related logins, and a Personal container for other stuff. I'm utterly confused as to when clicking a URL in another app will launch the site in the default container, and when it will launch in the Personal container - it really seems random. And there seems no obvious way to control this.

So for example, I have my corporate github account, and my personal one, logged in in these different containers. Launching links from Outlook (work email), more often than not, opens in my personal container, and so none of my work-related github links are clickable. At one stage I'd made it so github links would only ever open in the default container, but then that precludes me from ever using my personal github account in Firefox too, so seems to completely defeat the purpose. But sometimes (infrequently) it launches in the default container! I've verified it has nothing to do with what container tab is currently in focus. Is it just guessing based on how many tabs of a particular container I've opened today??

Besides understanding this problem, is there any way I can control which container is opened when launching links from external apps like Outlook or Slack? Sure, I can copy the link, then open a tab, then paste it in, but FML if I have to do that 50 times a day - I'll need to jump back to Chrome :(

Hi,

I am facing an issue whenever I visit any website with Marathi or Devnagari font on one particular device, e.g. www.loksatta.com. The app is updated to the latest version. I am using Samsung Galaxy M51.

I have reset the data, reinstalled the app but it didn't help. This is happening on only one device, on my other devices, phone/ tablet/ iPhone, I don't have any issues with the same website.

With best regards, Abhinay

I use a container dedicated to my Gmail logins with two accounts. However, since earlier this week, the container no longer loads Gmail at all, simply showing a blank, white page. Has Google broken Firefox containers by chance? Anyone else having this issue?

Firefox just updated. Now when I go to a website, right-click a link, and choose open in a new tab or window,it does nothing. If I left-click the link I can get to it in the same window, but when I go back to the originating page, it seldom takes me to back to where I started (which is why I prefer to open a new tab.)

The right-click menu itself looks wonky: There's blank spaces at the top, far too many options appearing, most of which are irrelevant to the situation or duplicate options.

This is happening in every site I've tried. For some sites I use this means Firefox is useless.

I developed an Android Firefox addon and tried to print out all the tabs information in Firefox on the PC. As a result, I could only get the information of the current tab. Is there a way for me to get the information of all tabs? Here is my code:

background.js browser.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(() => {

 browser.tabs.query({}).then((tabs) => {
   tabs.forEach((tab) => {
     console.log(`Tab ID: ${tab.id}, Title: ${tab.title}, Index: ${tab.index}`);
   });
 });

});

manifest.json {

 "manifest_version": 2,
 "name": "Close Tabs ",
 "version": "1.0",
 "description": "Clsoe Tabs ",
 "permissions": ["tabs"],
 "background": {
   "scripts": ["background.js"],
   "persistent": false
 },
 "browser_action": {
   "default_icon": {
     "16": "icons/icon-16.png",
     "48": "icons/icon-48.png",
     "128": "icons/icon-128.png"
   },
   "default_title": "Close Tabs "
 }

}

My pc firefox version is 134.0.1, With firefox nightly for android version 134.0a1

https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/ios-18-2-link-sharing-to-firefox-mobile-is-not-working/m-p/81007 The issue is well documented above.

Prior to iOS 18 if you had a link anywhere in the phone be it WhatsApp, email, webpages in safari or text messages and if we long press the link to open submenu we could choose share - Open with Firefox. It used to work. This used to popup Firefox right away.

But after ios 18 update none of the options are working. If you choose open with Firefox nothing happens and if you choose Share - open with Firefox - open in background nothing happens. What’s the cause?

Perhaps in my opinion: Apple becoming territorial for their safari browser making it yet another corporate giant becoming greedy eih?

Starting today, YouTube on Android Firefox using below version of Firefox, the audio distorts and has a continual popping clicking on each word of an audio podcast when you speed up the YouTube video to 1.5 or 1.75 prior to today it was fine ... The audio is still understandable but distorted when using one of these speed up settings

Using the Chrome browser, everything is fine on the speed up settings on YouTube.com
