When saving images from websites using the save image as feature, Firefox will freeze up and not register any mouse click or anything instead making a ding noise every time is register a mouse click. This will continue for like 30 seconds before it becomes normal then it will repeat this for every image. How can I solve this?

Since updating to version 135.0.1 last night, all kinds of interactive maps have been loading like the pictured attached below. Even maps in pdf aren't properly loading, loading black pages. Everything works completely fine in all my other browsers.

Hello,

Hopefully this is something that can get answered quickly. These past few days I have not been able to use FireFox on my laptop.

It doesn't seem to be a wifi connection issue because other browsers work and other devices are connected just fine.

I also tried opening FireFox in the "troubleshoot" mode, but I am still receiving the same errors. I would appreciate any help I can get on this issue.

Below is a screenshot of the error I keep receiving.

Thanks,

a black box appears over the search box when mouse is moved over the tab. Tried in safe and troubleshoot mode. Box still appears only in white I did find an answer previously but reinstalled firefox and the fix was lost. Problem resolved.

Thanks all for looking.

I have been experiencing issues of extreme CPU consumption.

When I look at Task Manager, I see tabs consuming resources - tabs I have closed.

See attached open tabs screen shot, and task manager screen shot. The Register (tech website) is clearly consuming CPU and memory, even though I closed that tab yesterday. WTF is going on?

Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon Cinnamon 6.8.0-90-generic

Firefox is installed from the package manager, not as a flatpack.

Extensions: Privacy Badger, and uBlock Origin are installed and active on most tabs. (YouTube has become temperamental about privacy extensions, and a few other Google-related sites as well) CookieAutoDelete - though that just deletes cookies/sites data some seconds after a tab is closed.

The Register example is just for reference. The service that seems to consume large quantities of CPU, even after I close all related tabs is YouTube. It has on occasion made the system crash.

I've been using Firefox for a while, and while there are many things I like about it, it has always been a resource hog. In the past I could get around this by just killing Firefox in Windows Resource Manager and restarting, but ever since getting a new computer an upgrading to Windows 11, it's gotten worse. Every couple of days my computer freezes for 10 or more minutes, I'm having to do a hard reboot ever few days, and I'm even bluescreening about twice a month. I'm pretty sure Firefox is the culprit because killing it will usually resolve the issue.

I'm wondering if there is some way to put Firefox in a sandbox so it does not consume nearly all available memory and other computer resources. It is by far the biggest consumer of resources on my system and I do not want to dedicate 4GB+ of memory to an app that is just showing a couple of web pages and playing YouTube videos.

When I open FF 137 on my iMac running OS 12.7.6, it just keep trying and trying with no link. When I try and quit it needs to be forced quick to stop running. There are no fire walls and it worked yesterday 4-5-25 just fine, but no go today. I tried replacing FF and still no luck, what do I try now, [email removed]@yahoo.com

the crash report ID is dd1e4f07-c2e0-4372-be7f-e82820250128 this is odd, Laptop was running linux mint, i beleive 20. mate. i reinstalled to the latest 22 and then copied over my .mozilla folder since then FF has been crashing. so i opened it in troubleshoot mode and it still crashed. so i moved .mozilla over and let FF recreate it and its still crashing.

im not sure where to go from here.

here is the crash report. https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/dd1e4f07-c2e0-4372-be7f-e82820250128

For the last day I've been having a problem with FF slow to load. I've tried the troubleshoot mode with little change. When it does load I can have problems with certain web sites loading e.g. Youtube, MSNBC, AOL mail etc. It's never consistent. The cache is clean and I've saved all the relevant cookies, I checked my internet provider and they are having no problems and I don't seem to be having any internal hdw issues e.g. ethernet cable connections etc. I reinstalled FF-not a clean install and seemed to help for a time. Do I have any options other than a refresh? I don't seem to be having the same issues with Edge or Chrome. All W11 updates are current. I look forward to anyone's comments.

I have noticed a weird scrolling bug in Firefox since either v138.0 or v138.0.1.

If you go to https://www.architecturaldesigns.com/ and select any floor plan, if you attempt to scroll down the page the page will not let you and snap back to the top.

I tried this in Firefox troubleshooting mode with all add-ons / themes disabled and encountered the same behavior. This is something that just started happening in the last version release or two.

This is present both on Windows as well as Mac versions of the Firefox browser.

Hello!

I would be very grateful if you could help me figure it out, the browser suddenly stopped working, does not open any tabs, just a blank screen, does not open settings, some buttons simply do not respond at all. I cleaned the SScleaner yesterday, but I did not select anything special there, it was a basic regular cleaning that the program offers.

How do I fix this? reinstalling does not help, the browser still does not work

Despite being listed as supported on: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaDevices/enumerateDevices

enumerateDevices() still only returns input devices. Running navigator.mediaDevices.enumerateDevices().then(devices => console.log(devices)); in the Firefox console only shows input devices while on Chrome it shows output devices.

I use a website that supports playing from multiple output devices so when receiving a phone call, your desktop speakers and your headset can ring at the same time. This works in Chrome but it doesn't in Firefox.

For about the last month, if I click on a link in an email or on a website that should connect to another website, there's a long delay in reaching that second site. This did not happen before. The delays are intolerable and do not occur on Chrome, for example. I prefer to use Firefox, but I feel I have no choice but to use Chrome instead. Can my issue with Firefox be fixed? Thank you for considering this issue.
