For the past ... I really don't know how long now, most of the time I just gave up, but I'm finally fed up with it ... YouTube has been displaying "An error occurred, please try again later" on any video I try to play; embedded or on YouTube, it doesn't matter.

Safe mode does not resolve the problem.

The only way I can get it to work is by (1) using a separate, clean Firefox profile (-no-remote -profile "x:\path\to\clean\profile"), (2) trying a different browser or (3) completely resetting Firefox (I manually backed up my main profile directory before doing this).

But: copy pasting the URL into a different profile or browser for every video is a pain in the arse and resetting Firefox is not an acceptable solution. I have a ton of customized extensions that would take hours to reconfigure. And, as I mentioned, safe mode (ie.: disabling the extensions) does not fix the problem.

Has anyone actually got to the root cause of this ridiculous error?

YouTube video do not start playing. Loading circle just stop and nothing happens. Everything's Ok in other browsers. Did resetting Firefox, deleting and reinstaling it and Flash plugin with zero result.

Hi everyone,

I'm having problems playing youtube videos on firefox. Yet I don't seem to have any problem playing flash supported videos on other sites, but whenever I try to play a video on youtube all I get a is a black box. Is there any suggestion I didn't have this problem before.

I'am currently using Firefox 24.0 Browser which is upto date, and the plugin I use to watch any flash enabled video is Shockwave Flash 11.9.900.117 r900 .

I recently deleted a day's worth of history which I really need to get back. I tried downloading index.dat viewer, but that did not bring anything up. I have searched and searched the internet, but can not find an answer, although I do read everywhere it is not permanently deleted.

i tried to save a picture from twitter but it didnt work i clicked on the picture the i pressed right-click on the mouse to try and save it and i didnt find out the save as option ,so is there a way in which i can save a picture from twitter or anywhere.

Firefox is my default browser. It always opened links from email in Firefox. Now, suddenly, when I click on a link in email, it no longer opens. If I make Chrome default, it will open in that browser. I've tried switching back a couple of times after reboot, but links no longer open in firefox. I don't know what happened to change it.

I attempted to download a large file overnight (5GB) through Mega.nz

On mega.nz it said it ha reached 100% and finished, but i also saw some error messages saying i didnt have enough file space to save.... (I probably had around GB spare before downloading).

Now, i cant find the file anywhere (its not in downloads) and i have little disk space left! Its like it has downloaded the file and used 5GB of space, but i can't see the file!

any help much appreciated

When I enter fullscreen mode I'd like all toolbars to auto-hide, and maybe only show when I move my mouse to the top edge, or when I hit Cmd+L or such. Other windows that are not made fullscreen should keep their toolbars in place.

My reason for going fullscreen is to have the entire screen dedicated to the current website / webapp. It's no use getting rid of the OS toolbars if I can't get rid of Firefox ones.

Chrome calls this feature Presentation Mode, it's in the View menu right above Full screen. The latter does not hide toolbars, just like Firefox's. So I guess what Firefox calls "full screen" is actually consistent with that of Chrome, but it lacks Presentation mode. Is there an option or an extension to add it?

Also note that this is very different from the various Kiosk mode extensions. I don't want Firefox to start fullscreen, to limit browsing to the current website, to disable right click and keyboard shortcuts, and all the other limitations put in place by Kiosk mode extensions.

Why is it still not possible to download the 64bit version of Firefox from getfirefox.com? Everytime a new Firefox comes out I have to search to try to find the FTP archives and download it from there. This is silly. The 64bit versions are readily available from Mozilla itself. See for example:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/25.0/linux-x86_64/

To make matters worse: The getfirefox.com site doesn't even see that I don't use the latest version. When I go to that site with my 64bit Linux build of Firefox 24, the site happily says I am using the latest version, even though Firefox 25 has been out for some time.

this has been going on for a while and i am considering the previously unthinkable and switching to Chrome, i don't want to but waiting five minutes for firefox to open is getting on my last never. the thing is, it only is this slow the first time. after that it is fast as usual. i have tried disabling all addons and plug ins, nothing works. as i said, it only does this when i try to open it up first thing in the morning after booting up the computer. i have a fast computer too, an intel i7 3770 processor and 16 gigs of ram so that is not an issue. i am running windows 8 by the way. i click on the firefox icon and it does nothing for at least a few minutes, then opens. very frustrating. also, i have disabled prefetch as well, no good. attached are screenshots of my addons and plug ins. yes, i have uninstalled it completely and reinstalled, no luck.

I was wondering if the two coincide, what is(are) the source(s) of this problem? how do I remove the homegroup from my computer and eliminate the unwanted pop-ups? I have windows 8 on my computer.

The "are you sure you want to leave this page?" pop up whenever I try to exit a web page is driving me crazy. There must be a way to prevent it but I've found no solution. One reply to the forum called it the "onbeforeclose" and suggested it might be eliminated in the "about:config" part of Firefox, but searching "about:config" I found no such entry. What can be done to stop this highly irritating pop up and prevent it from ever appearing again?

When is Firefox going to fix this damn problem? everyday about 2 or 3 times I get this on my windows 8! Firefox only solution seems to be to disable the warning and wait 45 seconds for it to be acknowledged. that isn't a solution! Fix the DAMN PROBLEM ALREADY, from what I see in the forums, it's been going on for about a year without any solution!

Dear Sir,

We have in our company a fortigate firewall and we apply deep packet scanning for HTTPS this need to add the fortigate certificate to the firefox browser and as you know we have more than 300 PC for IE we define a policy on the domain and the certificate added successfully and all HTTPS sites works normally. My question is how to make firefox reads from windows certificate?

I get error "couldn't find mozilla runtime" at start up,when pc is ready to use,this message comes up! I have read topics about it and also tried several things! Firefox is my default browser! Also I have tried uninstall and then install it again,but when i uninstalled mozilla and then reboot system,message came up again,even mozilla was uninstalled,then i downloaded latest version and installed it again but message still comes up at start up,I don't know what to do with it...

there are a few websites i use that have lately been automaticly redirecting to other unrelated sites the moment i go to the site. for example one site i watch shows on has been redirecting to a brasilian adoby website and i have to quickly stop the page from loading half way through to stop it from happening, the site works fine if i time it right. i know firefox has pop up blockers, so i was woundering if it can block these bothersome redirects?

Some of the fonts in our PDFs are unreadable in the PDF viewer (example: bullets and footer in this document: http://info.bannersalesforce.com/xpedio/groups/public/documents/literature/b_3138824.pdf and all text relating to images on page 5 of this document: http://info.bannerengineering.com/xpedio/groups/public/documents/literature/38244.pdf )

I believe it might be related to some of the fonts in the document, maybe some of them are OpenType? I'm not a font person so I'm at a loss as to why some fonts are displaying correctly and others aren't.

I switched my PDF viewer to use Acrobat but I can't ask all my customers to do the same. Is there a patch planned for this issue?

Hi All

I have an interesting problem with google and firefox not playing well. When I complete a search on google I get a results page. But when I use a link of the results page and use the back button look at the results page it flashes up quickly and then is replaced with a blank page.

If I use reload (ctrl + R) the result page it is then displayed. Is this a new feature that is in FF24?

I have FF24.0 on Win 7 and I have: 1. re installed firefox 2. deleted my prefs.js 3. turned http cache off 4. run in safe mode with add ons off..

website says it's the FBI and wants $300 to unlock. I went to close out and restart my Macbook pro but it would not let me so I powered off with on/off button. I let it sit for 5 minutes then restarted. when I launched Firefox that tab was still there. How do I get rid of it?
