I-Firefox Community Forum

Hello,

I am trying to download a few JPG images from Meetup.com. Here is an example URL:

https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/5/0/a/highres_528673578.jpeg

This is CLEARLY a JPG image from the URL. However, when I right click on the image to Save As the only choice given is AVIF! I cannot open or use AVIF files. As you know the conversion process is LOSSY so trying to convert BACK to a JPG format is not recommended.

It is fine if Firefox and other browsers want to use AVIF format internally but you should, at least, give users the OPTION of downloading the native format.

So how do I fix/configure Firefox to provide the native JPG file download?

Thanks, Steve

I go to Central Pacific Bank's website and try to pay my bills, but when I click on "Pay bills" it does not do anything. Before it would go to pay bills. Now when I click it does not respond. There website is not responding. So I try on America Online browser and no problem. I can pay my bills. How come with Firefox it now does not work? This is the second time I am having problem with Firefox and it is becoming annoying. What's the problem?

DISREGARD-Fixed, it was a Firefox Extension messing everything up.

Lost notifications, chatbox ability and formatting for quick reply message box on a website I use daily. (https://escapefromreality.forumotion.co.uk/forum) Also lost the scrolling bar across the top of the page that took me to a particular place.

No other Firefox users there are having this issue. I don't know whether a Firebox update took place or what. I was off the computer for about 5 days and when I went back to the website I was having the issues. I was using Adblock but don't know if something happened with them or not, it had worked perfectly previously. I disabled the Adblock but still no change.

After the last update Firefox ESR 115.23.0 the menu on the website: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/home is not displayed correctly. Can you fix this?

The Widevine Content Decryption Module failed on both our Windows 7 PCs. Version: 4.10.2891.0 Last updated Apr 2, 2025 when our version of Firefox was updated. The current version is 115.22.0 est (64-bit) (Streaming is OK on my Mac using Safari and Chrome; don't have Firefox installed there)

Over recent months, there have been quite a few reports of this issue on several operating systems. Our viewing of videos only failed us on April 2nd or 3rd, 2025, not previously. This seems to be occurring at various times in various systems. Solutions are not accessible to lay folks, and Google is inaccessible! Can anyone help us? Thanks

Some web sites have begun to not work with Firefox browser on Windows 7 64 bit. Is there anyway to get a version of Firefox that that will get me back to working as well as before 4/9/2025. My Firefox web browser says it is fully updated. If Firefox browser is to no longer work with Windows 7, can you suggest a simple browser that can be downloaded for Windows 7 and tell me where and how to download it?

I have Firefox on two separate computers, a desktop running Win7Prof64bit and a laptop running Win10Pro 64bit. Both Firefox installations crash constantly, ie every 10 - 15 mins. They show the "Gah! Firefox just crashed. Please tell us what you were doing", and the box to return the data to Mozilla. With Restore This Tab at the bottom.

I always send you these reports but in about a year, the problem remains the same. Nothing has improved, I never hear back from you. Two different PCs, two different OSs, constant reports, no improvement. Why do I never hear from you? Why does this problem continue endlessly? I'm wasting my time sending you the reports. You take no notice. If you do, why does the problem continue and why do I never hear from you?

I am running Firefox in Windows 7 on a PC. When I start up Firefox, in WINDOWS Task Manager there appear between 20 and 30 instances of firefox.exe of different sizes in the Processes Window. I can End Process on most of them without shutting down Firefox or any of the other instances of firefox.exe. However if I shut down one listed with about 200,000K of Memory (Private Working Set), then Firefox shuts down and all other instances of Firefox disappear. If I open an new tab in Firefox, more instances of firefox.exe appear.

I have never seen this behavior before. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, but the same behavior occurred. Is this normal behavior, or should I be concerned?

I have enclosed screen shots from the Task Manager. I also have a Dump File of a couple of the firefox.exe instances, including the large one, if that would be helpful.

Thank you.

I tryed Firefox 115.8.0esr and 115.9.0esr 32Bit on Windows 7. (78.15.0 works) Firefox crashes(the whole program, i mean no tab) on "about:support" or some pages on support.mozilla.org like https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/firefox-leistungseinstellungen always reproduceable.

I disabled all Addons, i disabled this power optimizion setting, removed usercrome.css same. With Firefox savemode it dont crash. Spyware is blocked, means datareporting/telemetry/ping by disabling the options and empty the urls (like on FF 78 but it dont crash). Somewhere i read firefox can crash on a empty url, but i assume its fixed long time ago. A wrong, unreachable or empty url should not crash on well programming. Think about countrys that blocks urls, adblocker, pihole and so on. I dont remember about what url i read.

Does the savemode revert all about:config settings? What does support.mozilla ask the browser that causes the crash? It know it seems to identify the Browser, but usual its done by useragent and no "internal" communication.

Then FF always crash on ebay.de search if you scroll or change settings while the page is not ready. Spyware is too blocked by Hardware, ebay may wait for some ad? But thats already on FF78 but on 115 it seems more often, this was not with FF 52. But some sites including ebay stops to work with FF52/78 so no choice.

I can't install extensions anymore, when clicking on "install" button, the waiting icon keeps moving forever. I'm using firefox 115.20.0 esr 64 bit. Also tried in troubleshooting mode, no change. I've tried several verified extensions, and many that used to work fine precedently.

I accepted an update to my computer and immediately Firefox could not load, the exe file is missing. Again I use windows 7 . May have lost all passwords and bookmarks. Please advise.

'Block Site' merely blocks access to a list of sites, but does not stop them appearing. is there a way to stop websites which use <gob.mx> in the address, which attempt to re-direct to 'mirror' sites that try to steal personal info and generate 'Illegal re-direct' warnings from anti-virus programs from appearing in firefox searches, automatically, rather than having to enter <XXXXXXX, -gob.mx> each time I search ?

Deleting autofill entries does not work per article. The info is still there. Clearing history does not work either. Do I need to restart computer for it to forget/delete entries? Thank you. Fred couvrette

Yesterday I was on the Newsmax website. Today Firefox says its not a secure connection and it won't let me go to Newmax.com. I then tried to use the google browser and it went right to Newmax.com no problem. I am using Windows 7 like I have been for years. Please help. Thanks, Al

When I am on espn.com/fantasy team pages everything loads correctly except for one popup table that does not. It will occasionally display but usually doesn't. When it fails to display, the scrollbar disappears but nothing shows. I tried clearing cache and cookies (Ctrl + F5, Settings + Clear data, etc.), refreshing firefox, and disabling all addons/extensions but the problem persists. I also tried turning off hardware acceleration and turned off proxies and secure DNS but nothing worked. I noticed this "_error.js" message in the debugger:

module.exports = __NEXT_REGISTER_PAGE("/_error", function () {

 var e = webpackJsonp(
   [566],
   {
     1789: function (e, r, o) {
       e.exports = o(288)
     },
   },
   [1789],
 )
 return { page: e.default }

})

I do not have this issue on firefox android, only on desktop. Thank you.

I just updated to the esr version and I lost the ability to automatically play voice messages attached to my email. could you please let me know how to fix this problem Thank you
