I-Firefox Community Forum

Certain webpages (which load without problem in Opera) will fully load and then immediately become blank as if it never loaded. If I hit "reload" the same thing happens, it loads and then goes blank. This is only certain webpages but here is one for example:

Again, this is not a problem in Opera. But Firefox has been my main browser for many years now, and I'd rather not switch if I don't have to.

Thank you. Malcolm Garris

I received an email with a link to: https://sparkalliance.com/?utm_source=Fastned+Updates&utm_campaign=b7d9351dbf-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2025_04_02_08_04&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-b7d9351dbf-328737496

Whilst this page works fine in Edge (and Chrome) - in Firefox you cannot scroll down to read the content.

I came across this the other day on another website: https://startupcoalition.io/news/

Any ideas what is stopping this from working?

I use the email server fastmail.fm inside the Firefox browser on a 2023 Macbook pro. In the main everyday pane (the list of emails) there is a right-hand scroll bar. Frequently that scroll bar is MUCH too long, so that I cannot scroll all the way to the bottom of the list of emails. Both Apple and fastmail.fm are pretty sure they are not responsible. When the scroll bar is too long, I know a work-around, but I would like the problem not to happen.

Hi there folks,

recaptcha pop up window does not appear even though I know its there (in comparison to chrome). The result is that the main window may be slightly greyed out or look normal but I cannot move on in the dialogue (for example when I have completed a form and want to submit).

Very frustrating because: 1. I have to move over to chrome where there are no such issues 2. I am increasingly having to default to chrome which I don't want to do

Any help most welcome! Copper 102

I was in the process of writing a somewhat lengthy response and went to another webpage or webpages and when I went back to the webpage where I was writing the somewhat lengthy response, the webpage was completely blank! The Back and Forward buttons were grayed out, Refreshing the webpage did nothing so there was NO way to get the webpage back. Interestingly, when I hover over the URL, at the end of the URL for the webpage, it had "about:blank." Things like this are very frustrating and waste a lot of my time.

In addition, another problem I reported on 3/20/25 (link is: A webpage I just closed recently is not listed Back arrow issue) has still no response.

Also another frustrating thing about the Firefox browser is that at times the Bookmarks sidebar disappears.

I need a reliable browser, not one that sort of works! I request that these issues be addressed soon.

I subscribe to my city's newsletter. It gives quick links "click here" to register for a class, "click here" for information about an upcoming parade. I used to be able to click and get it. Now it tells me It can't find the site OR I might be connected but behind a firewall. There are too many options and too many terms, I don't know what to do, I just want to click links from my city newsletter, and get taken to them. Help???

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at vu4mbwlab.cc.rs6.net.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

i can not access my Cults account. when i try this is what it shows me..... Forbidden. Please contact hello@cults3d.com with the following debug code: WyJmYWlsMmJhbiBwZW50ZXN0aW5nIiwiYmxvY2tsaXN0IixudWxsLG51bGwsIjc0LjE5My4yMTUuNTQiXQ.

I'm having problems connecting to a server. I know it is a valid address because I can get it on other computers but it is now block on my computer. Is this a firewall problem and if so how do I fix it. the server address is" click.coverkit-mail2.com". How do I fix this?

Why do numbers appear next to some of my shortcuts on my Firefox shortcuts home page? See attached. I only have one tab or window open and this number (5) has incremented over time.

The small green dot in the upper right that notifies me of a pending update is gone, since several months. When I navigate to About Firefox, or in the settings, I can see that a new version is available and it lets me install the update. But I miss being able to see the notification.

Did I disable some setting by mistake? Auto-updates should be turned on as far as I know.

As you can see from the image, the bookmark sidebar width can be expanded, but the width of the text portion does not grow with it. My longer bookmark names get truncated. Is there a setting to deal with this? If so, how do I access it?

I don't know what is happening, but for the last few weeks my Firefox has been freezing on me, I know the cause is not the website(s) because I can browse them fine with other browsers, also when it freezes it won't let me close it, I even tried to close it using Task Manager, but I get an Access Denied when I click End Task, so I have to restart my PC.

Any ideas qhat can be happening?

We have been using firefox as our default browser for over Ten years. We have several internal web pages created with google sites, with simple google sheets containers that have been working fine in that period. As of two days ago, the pages started displaying incorrectly in firefox as shown in attachments. Have tried disabling trackers and extensions and emptied cache as well as making sure firefox is fully up to date. This is happening on multiple terminals at several locations. Safari and chrome browsers work fine. Any troubleshooting help appreciated or if this is a known bug?

Greetings,

I have been using ⌥⌘\ (command + option + backslash) as an extension shortcut for 1 password (versions 6 and 7) for many years, but since I have updated the app to 1pass8; Firefox now does not allow the use of the backslash for the extension shortcut. When I attempt to change that shortcut, a small popup window says, “Choose a letter”.

I am still able to use the shortcut on another computer, but the app is a previous version: 1pass7. I spoke to 1pass tech department and they said its a Firefox limitation.

Is there any way I can get that extension to work for this app again?

Mac Ventura 1password 8 extension Firefox Version 136.0.4

Many thanks,

Pete

After total crash to a black screen, when it rebooted, the display does not fill the screen. I have tried clicking the expand box on the top right corner. Everything is oversized and doesn't reduce by using Ctrl minus. Help

For 2.5 years I access my monthly bank statements from Alliance Bank on line, as I am currently on an extended stay out of Texas. This morning, I attempted to access my new statement and Firefox refuses to let me into the Alliance Bank website -- even though I've been going in there every month for about 30 months, at least once a month. Each time I try to go to the site, a warning comes up that it will NOT connect as this is not a secure connection as the security certificate is invalid due to being 'self-signed'. This is the same site I've gone to and done my banking for all this time, all with Firefox....can you please help me to disable this 'nanny' feature so that I can do my banking business per normal. SURELY..nothing has changed since I logged in last month...and them month before etc.. Thank you for your assistance, I am NOT at all tech competent.

Just thought I'd raise this issue as I can't find anything about it. For almost two weeks, every Fandom site I've visited looks different from normal. There's no sidebar, which is one less annoyance factor from Fandom, but other things I've noticed that aren't usable are expandable sections and some categorizing features. Specifically, the Yu-Gi-Oh! Fandom had expandable boxes with some card details and these are now white space, and the Duel Masters Fandom had a list of categories each card belonged to near the top of each entry, which seems to be missing. It seems like a Firefox-specific thing because I checked a couple of sites with Chrome and they looked normal, but I wouldn't want to view them regularly with Chrome because it discourages adblockers and Fandom's ads are dire. I haven't tried any other browsers. Once I started checking what version of Firefox I had during this time I've seen that the problem exists on 136.0.3 and 136.0.4. Thanks.
