Firefox 社群討論區

First of all, an important thing to note is that this is happening on only my school laptop, and not my pc. This problem occurs on all school laptops that have Firefox installed. The reason I, and some others want to use Firefox is simply to get an ad-blocker as extensions are blocked on the default browsers (chrome and edge).

Anyway, the issue is as such: One moment, I will be browsing normally, and then the next, a page will stop loading or refuse to load any new content. It is just like there is no internet going to Firefox, despite the laptop having internet connection as seen in other programs. The way I fix this is by opening edge, waiting for it to start, and then closing edge. Firefox then has internet connectivity again and will work perfectly fine for another few minutes, before having to do it again.

I really have no idea why this is happening, and especially why it is fixed by opening and closing another browser. Obviously this is caused by some administrative program on the computer, but by the way that I can temporarily fix it, I would assume that there is a more permanent solution. The admin programs on the computer are GlobalProtect (VPN), Sophos Endpoint Agent (Security), and Teamviewer (probably not relevant).

As this is for a student, doing something that is against the school rules, it is absolutely necessary that this gets fixed as soon as possible. I simply cannot live with these default browsers with ads. /s

Thanks for the help

Hi,ey Since a while, whenever firefox starts lagging, the space key is registered after other keys are pressed. I.e. when i type something like "this is a test" i get something like "thisisat est"; the space key is taken into account but at some random moment after some other keys are taken into account. What couldbe the cause and what can I do to stop this ? Thanks ! Ted

Firefox keeps crashing randomly, sometimes at startup, and sometimes just in the middle of a session. Sometimes just one tab will crash, and other times it'll be the entire browser. I ran it in troubleshoot mode and it still crashed, so it's not caused by an extension or anything. It never used to do this before and I don't understand what's causing this issue.

Hi how do I i prevent Firefox from going into efficiency mode. When Firefox goes into efficiency mode it be comes slow and unresponsive. if I manually uncheck efficiency mode in task manager Firefox becomes quicker and less laggy until a few seconds to minutes later it goes back into it. The performance of Firefox in efficiency mode makes it almost unusable and can take up to a minute for it to start working again.

great work with devloping such fine browser from past week i have been having a issue while browsing youtube the browser gets stuck and i am not able to forward or rewind the video or if i switch tabs it takes some time and to load already loaded page kindly help me with the same warm regards satish

I installed Firefox on my daughter's laptop (several times). Each time we try to open it, there is a quick flash of a window and then nothing. It does not not show up on the task manager. I restarted the computer. Reinstalled the program. And tried Refreshing it. I disabled pop-ups & deleted all anti-virus other than Defender. I tried setting firefox as default. Nothing worked. I am at the end of my knowledge. Would appreciate any help or ideas.

Thanks.

Hi. Currntly I'm using 123.0b9 (64 bit) beta FF on W10 and I have this undefined problem with sound when use firefox (problem has start about two months back)- until today I couldnt find the way to make it sound correct with no rattling in the background. Situation occurs when watching any youtube videos od listining some live audio stream (probobly html5 audio in both cases). I was looking for some answers and find out that there was some simillar html5 sound rattling problem already solved some time ago- but this solution does not work for me (I have try to make some settings "false" in "about:config"). I have also try to manually disabled all the extensions and to run firefox in the "problem solving mode" - both with no luck. The solusion for me was to enable "Use hardware acceleration when available" - but I already disable it for a reason - scroll and other extra mouse functions works only when this function is disable... Now i finally have the good sound quality without scrolling or poor sound and scroll - but not both. I hope we can fix this somehow

Im running Firefox on Apple Silicon and I really do wish that there was a way to change settings to adjust experience when using the browser. As for my current needs I wish there was a barebones mode I could enable because currently it's an energy hog and I am becoming discouraged to continue using it with this inefficiency.

Ill explain my use case, I do lots of research for school, and tend to work with 30-50 tabs at a time and by simply having Firefox open it drains my laptops' battery 3 to 4 X (times) faster. While the same tabs on Safari and even newly released DuckDuckGo Mac app can run those tabs for days while still sipping on battery.

another occassion is during my job search, these tabs will stay open for a week or two as I open jobs im applying to, using 'Skillsyncer' and bunch of gmail tabs. I prefer my laptop to lose 5% battery in 2 hrs instead od 3 minutes.

As things are now, Firefox is not well optimized and would like to let the Firefox team to add the mentioned functionality above. Sadly there's no way to reach out to their team and am instead forced to post here. For now I will refer to Firefox to 'Firefix' as there's plenty to fix.

I'm using Firefox 122.0.1 on macOS 14.2.1. When in HTTPS-Only Mode, some sites only support HTTP, and a screen appears that allows one to click Continue to HTTP Site to continue.

When this happens, it takes a few seconds before I can click the button or before mousing over it highlights the button. Is this intended behavior? My previous Windows 10 computer did not behave this way, allowing me to click or highlight the button immediately.

When I try to open a new tab, the dot continues to move back and forth but does not load the tab. Sometimes I have gotten the message: "A web page is slowing down your browser. To stop it close the page."

I have tried fixes suggested on the web, but no help, including clearing the cache.

Thank you in advance.

Hello, I use Firefox on Windows 11 . Since my computer became so slow, I checked task manager and found that Firefox is eating up my memory. It is described as Firefox(35) and is using about 2690MB. I would like to know how to reduce memory use if possible. Best regards.

Our website is showing secure in every browser but in Firefox its showing not secure. site is - psiraapi.sortelearn.com.

I have to wait for 10-15 minutes after starting Firefox and then the "normal browsing" goes fine.

But I can browse without troubles through "private browsing" since the opening of the private window.

In my work laptop, Firefox in "normal browsing" goes fine since the beginning.

In both computers I have my user sinchronised.

"Open the Application Support folder, then open the Firefox folder, and then the Profiles folder."

> There is no "Firefox" folder in "Application Support" folder, while there is a "Mozilla" folder.

What else may I try, as Firefox freezes after restarting (when not restarting in SafeMode)?

When I open firefox for the first time or after reboot or logout the internet doesn't connect immediately and it need almost 1 minute or more. I tried so many solutions, but they didn't work. If I reset Firefox, then the problem is fixed, but after some days, it's the same problem.

I gather there can be different kinds of screen flicker and many causes. My problem is with one particular website, https://www.yucatan.com.mx/ , and it didn't used to happen. When I open the site or pages in it, trying to scroll down just results in continuous, rapid flickering and no scrolling. I have to pull the scroll bar down just enough to get the page started, and then the mouse scroll wheel works. After looking at other people's similar issues, I have tried disabling smooth scrolling and the pop-up blocker. When I open the same site with a different browser and try to scroll down, I do see about two frames of flicker, but it's almost unnoticeable, and scrolling works OK. I restarted Firefox in troubleshooting mode and was able to get it to behave like that other browser at this site -- just a momentary flicker and no interference with scrolling. OK... where does that leave me? I can't use troubleshooting mode all the time. And it's just this one website that presents the problematic behavior. Thanks for your thoughts, -Rick

hi, some websites lately have password inputs set as "text" in the html and that confuses firefox into NOT suggesting saved login/password for those fields.

i inspected the password field in question and this is the correspondent html:

​<input autocomplete="off" id="PasswordInput_68.39270255653231" class="ant-input false" placeholder="Password" maxlength="32" pxunit="14" buttonwidth="100" timeformat="YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss" store="[object Object]" langlocale="[object Object]" type="text" value="">

btw, if i change the type to "password" it DOES suggest the saved login/password.

PS : the website in question is a login page for a dahua XVR.
