Firefox Community Forum

Muy problem is ony desktop.. A few days ago I started having the problem that when I click on a link, a new tab opens but it does not load any content. The little dots on the tab go back and forth but nothing loads. My home page always opens and I can open articles on that page, but new links do not open. I restarted the computer and it seemed that the problem had corrected, and I was able to open a couple of links but then nothing more would open.

What the title says. Firefox just isn't playing any sound whatsoever.

Troubleshooting:

• Volume mixer indicates that Firefox is using my speakers, along with all other apps. When playing a YouTube video, the green bar is not bouncing. However, all other programs that play sound do so successfully and their green bars are bouncing (see attachment).

• Other web browsers play sound successfully.

• Restarting Firefox and my computer did not help.

• Switching the default sound device and changing back did not help.

• Changing to headphones made no change.

• Tabs are not muted.

• Autoplay settings in about:preferences showed that audio and video were disabled, however changing this setting to allow video and audio, then restarting both Firefox and the computer did not fix the problem. I have no idea how that setting was even changed to begin with. O_o

• Started Firefox in troubleshooting mode; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in a different profile; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in private mode; still no sound.

• Tried ending the audiodg.exe process in task manager and restarted; still no sound.

• Double checked media.autoplay.blocking_policy, was set to 0.

• Double checked media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground -- changed from true to false, restarted Firefox; still no sound.

• Disabled hardware acceleration; still no sound.

• Refreshed Firefox; still no sound.

• Complete uninstall, including the usage of BCUninstaller to uninstall "leftovers". Reinstalled. Still no sound.

I have Apollo installed on my computer and I've reached out to them before for similar issues, but the dev was insistent that Apollo does not cause sound issues. I'm somewhat sceptical, but they're not being helpful at all so I thought I'd ask here, and disclose usage of Apollo so that all bases are covered.

Thank you for your time.

I have been an avid user of the Firefox browser on my PC for over a decade but a few days ago, when I tried to access a website on my Firefox browser, it would not connect me to the website. I have many tabs open in my browser and when I try to access any of the tabs, I get the same problem. There's a dot that moves endlessly back and forward in the tab while the screen remains blank. In the heading next to the website address it says "not secure", but it is saying this for all the websites that I was previously able to access and any new website that I enter. How can I fix this to access websites? I have tried restarting my computer but that has not fixed it.

Application error: a client-side exception has occurred while loading (see the browser console for more information).

where is the browser console? how do i fix it never had an issue with until the last two days?

I travel to two different locations a few times a year. I use the same basic "computer" for each one, though they're far apart. It works through a "sneaker network," where data files, profiles, etc, are copied to a portable hard drive and then copied to the next computer, so they're fairly identical.

The problem is that this last time (and I've been doing this for perhaps about 3 years), Firefox has refused to do anything online. I can use it offline, but not online. The "work online" is unchecked, so it should be online. But it refuses to do anything.

After several Firefox reboots, windows reboots, checking everything, Firefox still does nothing.

Currently I'm using Waterfox and Edge. Both work fine. Thunderbird works fine.

I've had this problem since Tuesday night. So about 48 hours now, and nothing at all.

The way I transfer from one computer to another without losing email or current Firefox status is to copy the newest profile over, delete the old, and then copy the current program, as well.

Thus, the program is up to date, as is the profile, but all I get when I type in any address is that dot thing at the top, going side to side.

Thank you in advance.

Both Protonmail and G mail doesn't work anymore. Protonmail shows entire mailbox is empty, Gmail shows in red 'Oops! Your selected image failed to load'

I have been using Firefox for many years now and have never had this problem.

I can only use my mail accounts now on Safari, but the browser is no longer supported but it still works, I cannot use Firefox but Safari works, so it isn't a email provider problem.

I'm including a screenshot from gmail. Although I can sign in on Gmail, I cannot use Youtube as it shows I'm signed out?

I'm including a screenshot from Protonmail, you will see that it shows 76 items in the inbox, but none can display.

Thank you ....

Suddenly the radio buttons in surveys do not "black out" for each one selected /clicked. I tried the same URL in EDGE browser and they all work! What happened to the latest version !!! Yes I cleared cache and cookies!

Today firefox deleted my complete history with the latest update. My data recovery tools cannot find any old profile. I demand a solution, since you update without any warning or possibility to save the history/tabs.

In Chrome, I can search a full PDF whether I view it within an email, or as a PDF opened in the browser.

In Firefox, I can only do the latter - I can search the full PDF if the PDF is open in its own tab after being downloaded, but I cannot search the full PDF in the Outlook preview.

I do this every day for work, so this is a bit of a deal breaker if I'm unable to find a workaround. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get around this?

Windows Defender uninstalled the Firefox browser because of a Severe security threat. Is there a threat to installing and using the Firefox application on Windows 11?

Hello! Appreciate the help I could get. It is rather hard to type when the letters are disappearing as I type it out. I will provide screenshots of my issues and hopefully someone could help me out. I just downloaded the browser and have no idea how to fix the issues. The tabs are constantly flickering in different colors. The letter are disappearing or merging together or sometimes written in bold, crossed out, or underlined. It is making it rather hard to use the browser haha, but let me know what else I can provide to help out identify the issue. THANKS!
