I get PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR when trying to load certain websites. I don't use any proxy or VPN, I tried disabling DoH. Also sometimes i get 403 forbidden cloudflare.

I have a 1848ETC-HST data logger from Real Time Automation on an isolated network that does not support HTTPS but Firefox keeps changing it to HTTPS. I tried a private window with the same results. HTTPS-Only Mode is disabled. I entered an exception even though it should not need it. It was working in Firefox at one time and it still works with safari and chrome.

When open Google Drive using Firefox, I cannot click on any documents. I can open folders but the documents in these folders I cannot open. I can open Google Docs and then access documents but all documents through Google Drive including in the Shared Folder are greyed out and when I click on any of these I get the pop up "This file cannot be opened because you're offline." I can access Google Drive and its documents using Chrome. I would prefer to use Firefox.

I have updated Firefox, cleared the history, and emptied cache and cookies. I also logged out of and then back into my gmail account.

The image shows what the drive looks like when opened in Firefox.

I am trying to set the default Map application to Google Maps, which is the best. Apple is the worst. I like the Duck Duck, and want to keep it, but this map problem doesn't even allow Google Maps to appear in the search results!

This is an hard problem for me -- Apple sold out a long time ago and offer an inferior app.

Is there any solution?

BTW, I NEVER SUBMIT! I SEND.

Sending this using Safari because Firefox is totally messed up. Firefox 115.24.0esr (64-bit) OSX 10.13.6 High Sierra 2011 Mac Power Book (MPB) with 16 GB RAM. Verizon DSL line, download speed tests from 10-14 Gb/sec but Latency is always 400-900+ msec. No way to measure Jitter with speedtests that will run on my older system, or Bufferbloat now that DSLreports has gone dark.

I want a tool that will allow me to see all the attempts to connect, and packets/traffic, to see it its my old computer going bad, Firefox, the wireless or wired connection to the DSL modem/router, or the DLS modem/router itself, such as a problem with reaching the Domain Name Server (DNS) etc.

I can access the DSL modem/router in the browser, but there isn't much documentation. Its made by Actiontec but customized firmware for Verizon.

The problem persists whether I am using wifi or an Ethernet cable.

My wifes 2010 MBP computer with 8GB RAM using about 6.4GB, running High Sierra and Firefox 115.24.0 (esr) seems not to have the problem at all.

Firefox will show something in the lower left corner, "connecting to..." or "loading..." etc. It can stall with either status.

Search engines would be StartPage or DuckDuckgo. With DDgo, sometimes it just spins forever, but if I click on the URL bar, it drops down another line with the same URL and "--Visit" appended. Sometimes that will load, but seems random.

Some URLs / links open in a few seconds, some spin forever.

I first called Verizon Tech support on May22 about problems (see full exchange of repeated calls & new trouble tickets below). I think, IIRC, this happens to be shortly after I upgraded my Firefox version. They have admitted to PINGs not returning, packet loss, no excuse for the Latency.

I do have a lot of pages/tabs open; Activity Monitor says my memory use is about 14GB, but the Memory Pressure stays low in the green. I also run Thunderbird, TextEdit, maybe Adobe Reader and Excel. But even when I close everything else, the non-loading issue persists. When I shut down Firefox, the memory pressure can go into the red and take a very long time (so I always shut down all other apps first). A recent shutdown stalled & I ended up losing many open pages/tabs, but even the slimmed down load has the same problem.

I have shut off the AddOn NoScript, but the problem persists.

Something new: Last week when loading titantv.com Firefox crashed. Repeatedly. Sometimes before page completely loaded. Sometimes after loading and scrolling down page. Continues to crash every time I try to load that page.

Submitted latest crash report. Submitted report ID: bp-f9834b70-7d8c-492e-9728-da19b0241001

Next 4 crash reports: bp-51454956-c702-484f-85af-8cffa0241001 bp-c142600d-3c1e-4f61-9d97-935f80241001 bp-ad10f5e1-772f-4e47-b6ce-435d90241001 bp-aff87750-e91a-450a-b575-c6b280241001

Don't know how to interpret reports.

I have a Dropbox Paper document that I use for my bookmarks. It lists the name of the site (with link attached) and hints as to my username/password for any given site I use.

For years, it has worked just fine, but trying to solve a different problem, something happened (in my settings?) that renders those hyperlinks non-working. When I click on, say Facebook, it formerly took me right to FB. NOW it gives me a weird yellow box in the upper right corner that says "about:blank" in the upper left of the box, and 3 white boxes at the lower right of the yellow box "Allow" "Deny" "Close." If I click on "Allow," I get a blank page. My navigation doesn't seem to recognize the links I've placed in the Doc.

A friend on FB posted a link to a YouTube video and when I clicked on that, I got the yellow box with the proper URL and a white box option to continue. I've tried to recreate that particular box, but, apparently, once it's accepted, it's OK from there on out.

I have tried deleting the link from the Paper Doc and reinstating it, and I still get the yellow box.

What have I done and how the heck do I get rid of that yellow box?

When I click any link in an email (gmail) firefox refuses to take me to the site. Instead I get error messages like error 404 or most recently, the attached which was from a link in an email from my doctor. I opened the same link using brave no problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox a few times. I have deleted all plug ins. I can open every single one of those links and any other links in brave or any other browser. Not firefox. This is frustrating. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I have an HTML page - currently on the desktop PC - that contains a few graphics (they relate to IPA sounds) and a bit of javascript which will make the sounds play when the user mouses-over the graphic, and stop on mouse-out. The script uses <embed> tags. I know these arent favoured but I think they should still work, as they have in the past, so the script itself is fine. But there is no sound (obviously I have checked the src is correct and made sure the speakers are on and working. They are.) W10, FF ver 128.6.0esr (64-bit)

When I am working with several open applications I sometimes need to slide the browser window over to I can see both open apps at once. Now when i pull the browser window partially off screen to the right it bounces back at full size. This is frustrating and time consuming to resize again. is there a setting to turn this feature off?

I am running Firefox on Linux. Desktop environment is KDE. Compositor is Wayland. I have a 11th Gen Intel Tiger lake Core i3 with integrated Intel UHD Graphics GPU. I do not have a eGPU or any other GPU apart from the integrated Intel UHD Graphics GPU. Intel drivers are installed and are being used. Please see the details given below from about:support for more details. What I have observed that Hardware acceleration, specifically WEBRENDER_COMPOSITOR, WEBRENDER_SHADER_CACHE and WEBRENDER_DCOMP_PRESENT are disabled. The details are given below.

I have enabled the force hardware acceleration too by setting the property media.hardware-video-decoding.force-enabled to true. But still the above three hardware acceleration are still not available.

How can I get these enabled?

Hi everyone, I've looked for help but can't seem to find what works. I went to about:config and searched for toolkit.winRegisterApplicationRestart and made it false, it worked for less than a week and now firefox is starting when the computer boots up. How do i stop this? I'm using windows 11 24h2. I've been using firefox for years. My computer boots up faster than my router and it keeps saying i don't have internet. I'd appreciate any help thanks.

Hello,

Can not play YouTube videos anymore in current version from Firefox. Before this update (again not needed and messy one) they worked. The videos shown at home screen or recommendations on the YouTube website. Same for my subscriptions, current videos as videos I played earlier somewhere. The YouTube website shows their picture and then the "no content available" message. Refreshing that page and try sometime later, both do not solve this. Unknown why this is happen. It seems another "new" bug inside Firefox.

When loading certain pages (on web application) the motion icon starts and after several seconds it changes to the sand clock icon despite the setting described in 'https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1303416' being done - ui.prefersReducedMotion set to 'false'. My work is all done in this web app and it is very important to see when data is being uploaded (grey/black dots) and when the page is supposedly being refreshed with updated data being downloaded (blue/green dots). Why is the preference being ignored and how to fix it so you always get the motion?

Dear colleagues:

I have made a page with a stack of z-indexed .heic images. The viewer clicks (jQuery) on the top image to reveal the next.

The page is local, not online. I'm on a Mac mini 2018, OS Ventura 13.6.1, Firefox 13.0.

Safari renders the operation correctly. Firefox fails to load the .heic images. Chrome also fails to load the images.

Any suggestions welcome. My 83yo brain sometimes misses things. cheers Chris
