Hi, I am using Firefox Developer Edition though I have had this problem with Firefox in the past. The problem is that sometimes the audio from Firefox just stops working, everything else in Windows works but not firefox, I tried having the same youtube video on Firefox and Chrome annd it worked on Chrome. There are times that a Windows restart fixes it and there are times that I just have to wait a couple of days till it fixes itself. The only thing I could find to trigger this behavior is to have mi Bluetooth earphones connected, then disconnect them and sometimes when reconnecting them the audio is just gone. This usually happens when I am working, when I start the day I put them on and start some music on Youtube, after 3-4 hours I do a 15 minutes break and during that time I charge the earphones, when I come back and turn them on again, most of the times the audio is gone. Is this a known issue or something? I can send anything if you want. Thank you

All searches get blocked by reCaptcha, quoted as being caused by 'unusual activity on the network' After going through the "I'm Not A Robot" process the search is o.k., but this happens for every search. The problem does not exist if I switch to Chrome. How do I fix this?

Hi. I'm on Tahoe since 24 hours. I have Lulu installed. Lulu blocked an outgoing connection called ping sender that wants to connect to 34.120.208.123 and is related to Mozilla as Lulu says. But when I run a whois on this ip I get

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.

I am on Windows 10 Pro (extended to Oct 2026) and use the Firefox profile manager at startup since I have more than one profile. Today (11/12/2025) I attempted to start Firefox and the profile manager window would not populate. the window was blindingly white on my dark background. I closed and restarted umpteen times but it refused relentlessly. I was about to uninstall firefox and then decided to see if I had actually installed it on any of my mobile devices. And indeed I had it on my ancient Apple iPhone 7+. And it was synced! I refreshed the sync and indeed it picked up my most recent activity from last night. All tabs were synced. To make sure I had another synced copy I also installed it on my iPad. I synchronized this too and suddenly my desktop browser started working again.

I don't know what caused the lockup of the Profile Manager but I am afraid it might happen again. What causes this and what can I do to regain control without having to reinstall? I am a researcher and I have over 1000 tabs open.

When I open Firefox it can't find my profiles when I go into the profile manager it shows no profiles. Going to my computer I find the profiles where they should be. However under program files there is a Mozilla Firefox normal directory. Did they recently change default install areas or did something else screw up.

I have done malware scans using Malwarebytes and spybot and my antivirus program and all comes up clean. Windows is up to date, Windows 11 most current preview. I can't tell you the current Firefox version since it won't open without the profile. I did just create a new profile and Firefox version is 147.0B7. also just recently right after what I think was an update that lost all my open windows and tabs and there is no way to restore them if there is a backup anywhere

All of a sudden I cannot check out using shop on my IMAC. It has worked for me for years and now all of a sudden it stopped. Not sure what settings to edit. I can go through the check out process, but when I press check out the page will not load. I just get a shadow & spinning like it's trying to upload but it never does. If I switch to Safari I have no problems, but I prefer Firefox. Any suggestions or solutions appreciated. Lorri

I am writing to report a serious performance and connectivity issue with Firefox on Android. The browser is extremely slow, pages take too long to load, and connections frequently fail despite having a stable and fast internet connection. Other browsers on the same device work perfectly, which suggests the problem is specific to Firefox. Clearing cache, disabling add-ons, and reinstalling the app did not resolve the issue. This significantly affects daily browsing and productivity. I request that this issue be investigated and optimized as soon as possible, as Firefox reliability on Android has noticeably declined in recent updates.

When typing a long search string in a new tab (Google search) which goes out to the right I can't see what I'm typing. Scrolling to the right is extremely laggy and can take seconds for each word. Tried this with the Chrome search bar and the Android settings search, the issue doesn't happen there.

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.

I have this new issue, that Firefox needs like 3-4 seconds, before loading a page. It stays blank until then. Why has the Performance decreased so much?

Reinstall didnt help

if i search something on firefox the search bar doesnt show english and after clicking enter for the answer sometimes it doesnt come in english. i have chosen english as the only language but sometimes i get results in bangla too. i want my results to be in english only.

Idk how to fix that problep bc its really bugging me out and i am going crazy

Here are the steps that i do to recreate the error

1. open a new tab
2. search up any website
3. on the same tab search up a diffrent website or click on a link on any link that redirects you on that website
4. literally after like 3 seconds firefox redirects you to the site that you were on before

Please how do i fix this cuz I hate it so much plskdjdiehzuzgzuahzjzvzkuzjzvz
