Suddenly I can not login to my bank account. Neither in Chrome or Microsoft Edge. In Firefox, a connection time out, the server is taking to long to respond appears all the time after several minutes waiting. I can login to others websites like ebay or facebook with no problem and I can login to my bank using my mobile app. It is just the bank and is aggravating. Contact bank tech support they said they don't have any problems with the webpage, yes they don't have but I have! I clear the history, the cache and the cookies but still have the same problem.

When I'm active in the RDP session, FF has never crashed. But when I exit the session and log in later, the Crash Reporter is reporting FF crashed. I've had 10 crashes this month. I have not tested in Safe Mode because I don't know how to test. I don't want to Refresh because I'll loose all my settings (hours or work). I was hoping someone could make sense of the crash report. Here's the three most recent submitted ones: bp-1dd0e0c0-985d-47c8-a017-ad9710190724 bp-1171b044-d27c-43d9-bd70-949720190722 bp-1d15d3c6-fa58-4f27-affa-0908a0190716

I have a twin core 2.0GHz laptop with 8 GB RAM, and opening big groups in Facebook makes CPU stick to 100% and at times downloading the page is frozen. It takes anything from a minute to 3 to completely load such pages. I know Facebook is bloatware and I should get a faster laptop.
I have tried every solution here and elsewhere, if you did too and found something not already here please respond. Thank you.

Could this note be referred please, to the FF programming manager? First my congrats on FF overall of course, to you and your many volunteers. But I notice a large philosophical programming problem which you might consider.
This problem mostly shows with multiple tabs open. Web servers certainly are slow, and many pages' Html etc poor. This all results in lots of delays such as reported during:
Waiting for () Read () Transferring data from () Performing a TLS handshake to () Connecting to ()
These display the moving "working" dot in the left of the affected tab title. And less often, "(not responding)" in FF's title bar, which eventually gets cleared automatically.
I have reviewed all 17 screens, and a number of the individual results, from today's FF forum search of:
169 results for (not responding) for Firefox
None address the lack of prioritized co-operative multi-tasking/ threading, DURING such delays as "Waiting for ()". During such a necessary wait, it is very slow at best, e.g. for a user to switch tabs. Even to one which is ready for display.
Responsiveness to user input should be the top multi-tasking priority. Tab switching. Rendering/ display of the foreground tab. Scrolling that down. Tab closing by user!, and "X" to STOP a page from loading -- give those user clicks priority. Let's not have to wait 10 seconds for a right-click to open its option box. Let the other busy tabs finish up their work, overlapped in the background priority-wise.
This could be done now, but perhaps it would be difficult for volunteer programmers. Worse case might require a custom replacement, for the effective TCP part of the default vanilla TCP/IP stack. However I suspect a lot could be fixed short of that, with the correct management encouragement and guidelines. At least if the continuous motion of the "busy dot" indicator in the tab title is a task, just change that to something like just gray-ed out while busy.
My experience is with much headroom: CPU (50%), memory, disk, and network bandwidth, per Task Manager. NO McAfee. Mainly just ZoneAlarm taking 30% of that CPU 50% usage. This is not a problem with start-up delay. And delays within only one open tab are necessary, of course. Cheers
File upload causes Firefox to be unresponsive and must close browser to continue. Tried all the fixes. Other browsers fine. Several computers.
Please if you have any suggestions, I'll try them. I thought a new clean computer might solve the problem, but no luck there either.

ubuntu 16.04, firefox 68.0.1. New instance started after "updated in background" restart just sits there. Add-ons are not started, tabs are not restored as promised. Typing in URL bar and hitting enter does nothing. No response to attempt to open a bookmark. Typing "about:support", no response. I tried removing and re-installing firefox with "sudo apt", no help. Starting firefox without addons, no help. The "about:firefox" display shows no change in version number. A reboot is the only thing that cures this. It has now happened 8 times (8/2, 8/5, 8/9. 8/16 and 4 times earlier). I have about-buildconfig, about-firefox and about-support from 8/2 and 8/5 if they would be helpful.

Hello everyone, I've recently had to recover my home directory on a machine running Ubuntu 18.04 from a backup... Everything works fine BUT Firefox which keeps crashing right at startup. Nothing happens until the report window opens up.
What I've tried so far:

When running from terminal I get the following:

During use, websites take too long to load. Have to exit out & restart

Hello,
I've been having some trouble with my Firefox install on my Windows 10 64 bit machine. I'm running FF v68.0.2 and I've been hitting some trouble. If I've been using the browser for more than 10 minutes or so with a couple (2-4) tabs open, all the browser will take forever - 45 seconds to a minute if at all - to load any website. I check my task manager and it doesn't seem to be using an exorbitant amount of CPU or memory, it just doesn't load the site. I have to exit out of FF and restart and it works fine again for a bit.
Anyone else had this? I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling, but it doesn't fix the issue. I'd prefer to keep using FF over Chrome or Edge, but I'm losing my patience with this. I've never had an issue like this in the past.

Why is Firefox offline site data or cached data stored in the Roaming portion of the user profile instead of the Local portion? For anyone using roaming profiles this is a horrible design because it syncs 10,000+ junk files out to their roaming profile location on the server.
The specific folder is C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\PROFILENAME\storage. Why isn't this storage folder located in the Local portion of the AppData folder, who wants all of this garbage following them around from computer to computer when using roaming profiles?

2 Updates ago Firefox was fine now Firefox's tab with video in it crashes. Here is what is happening:
1. Open a website and start streaming a video. 2. I also play World of tanks on my second monitor. 3. After sometime Firefox's Tab where video is playing freezes and the only thing to do is to close it. BUT all other tabs are ok and responsive. I have updated Flash player, but I don't need it to watch videos where I am watching them.
This problem started to occur since about 2 updates ago, I never had such problem before. I tried watching videos on different sites, in Safe Mode, I refreshed the Firefox, I re-installed the Firefox, I updated/uninstalled Adobe Flash, I disabled the Hardware Acceleration, Firefox still freezes. Same problem is happening with Chrome and MS Edge, but for some reason OPERA works fine.
Please help me to troubleshoot this problem.
Thank you.

I returned to my computer after a few hours outside and all my firefox containers and are gone. I can tell Firefox went through a restart while I was away because the addon "Grammarly" asked me if it wanted to work. Additionally all my extensions opened the first post install page you get after adding an extension/addon.

After a system reboot this morning, the scrollbar is unclickable (wheel based scrolling works). So is everything to the right of the address bar on that toolbar in fullscreen mode (in non-fullscreen mode, the buttons for bookmarks and add ons work, the hamburger menu does not). So are the minimize, maximize, and exit buttons on the window in full screen mode (in non-fullscreen mode, the minimize and maximize work, exit does not). Whatever is the right most tab in my list cannot be clicked. Right clicking any of these things brings up a menu with a single option- copy. The app is unusable in this state.
I have tried restarting in safe mode, this didn't fix anything. The only addons I have are noscript and adblock+.

Since updating to Firefox 68.0 I have been unable to download programmes using BBCiplayerdownloads. The software works in all other respects and will play already downloaded programmes. When attempting a new download, I get the error message in the attached image. I am presently running Firefox 68.0.1 and have tried running it in safe mode (all add-ons disabled) and still have the same issue. I am not aware of anyone else having the same problem but am at a loss as to how to progress.
I had a hunch and tried another browser, which worked - so the problem is somehow related to Firefox.
Thanks for your help.

On Firefox (68.0.2) for Mac (OS 10.14.6): for the past month or so, most (but not all) Youtube videos give "If playback doesn’t begin shortly try restarting your device" error.
Videos play with no problem in my other browsers.
I have tried restarting in Safe Mode and the problem persists. Autoplayback is on. I also tried unchecking "Use hardware acceleration" in preferences, which had no effect (so I turned it back on). Clearing the cache has no effect.
Anyone have any thoughts?
