Firefox Community Forum

Consistently we get a message box that says: "Oops something went wrong" with a red circle & x. Towbook states they can reproduce the error and we should just use Chrome or Edge. Is this something that could be fixed? We would prefer to stay on Firefox.

Firefox functions like an app of Edge--how on earth can I have Firefox back as it was in my Win 7 machine (before being forced to Win 11 after a monster lightning strike)?

How to switch accounts (change user) do not want to use the email address to log in to Firefox but my screen name--when I click the Firefox Icon automatically logs with my email address and shows my first and last name. How to bypass the auto and have a manual login for user name and password. At 81, I may not have enough years or brain power left to master this not-intuitive Windows 11, which appears to me, to be a bastard mix of Smartphone and Desktop put out by a company that wants total control or at a minimum to grant as little control as possible to the user of the operating system--we will teach you how to think our way or get a pencil and piece of paper.

Ah, "The Golden Years" is a misnomer, the color was golden as is all polished brass, however the Golden color has tarnished.

Using Firefox Developer Edition 132.0b9 (64-bit). Also verified same issue in regular FF. Tested in Chrome to be sure it's Firefox related. No issues in Chrome.

It's very random, but sometimes images will render with a slight green tint to them. When I save the image it doesn't have the tint but I've also included a screenshot to show how the render looks.

Things I've tried:

• Disabling hardware acceleration
• Changing every setting related to gfx.color in about.config and restarting browser (multiple times/tests)
• Using devtools to see if it's a server side issue with the particular website

At this point I'm moving on because I cannot find a fix so this was my last resort.

I discovered this issue while trying to chat on Twitch. On my m1 macos, I try to insert emoji into the twitch chat via <control+command+space> shortcut and opening up the emoji picker. When I click on a emote to insert, nothing is inserted. Then, when I try to do the same into the developer's console via <command+option+i> , again nothing is inserted. This does not appear to be the case on Chrome.

Steps to reproduce: 1) be on macOS 2) open emoji picker via <control+command+space> 3) try to insert emoji into twitch chat OR developer's console

nothing is inserted

None of the topics appears to be appropriate. Since yesterday each time I open a new tab another window opens duplicating the already existing window/s. For a while earlier today the multiple windows disappeared and new windows didn't open but now it's happening again. How do I prevent this happening?

As of last week, FF works for a few minutes on startup, but then when you open a new tab and try to go to a site you just get the dancing period, nothing opens. Already open tabs with sites generally still work, but sometimes crash the tabs after a bit. We've tried starting without extensions, uninstalling and reinstalling FF, changing the profile, logging in the PC (Win 10, up to date) with a different login, running SFC and DISM on the PC, and just about everything else.

Opening the FF console shows this message when the tab just rocks the period:

WindowsJumpLists: Failed to fetch favicon for https://online.adp.com/signin/v1/?APPID=WFNPortal&productId=80e309c3-7085-bae1-e053-3505430b5495&returnURL=https://workforcenow.adp.com/&callingAppId=WFN&TARGET=-SM-https://workforcenow.adp.com/theme/admin.html NS_ERROR_FAILURE: WindowsJumpLists.sys.mjs:257:29

Edge works perfectly (and unfortunately, I'm having to use Edge to enter this ticket.). Other applications don't have any issues. I'm not having this issue on 2 other similar PCs I have that run FF, only this one.

Any ideas of what might be the issue with FF on this PC? Thanks, Alex

Video has been running well and suddenly a new issue.

Video begins to display (...for a fraction of a second) then I get Error, Unhandled video privacy. I suspect a setting has been inadvertently changed, but can't find it. Any thoughts?

Hi

I've gotten a couple of reports from Firefox users. Users report odd text formatting when typing 1st and 2nd on the body of an email when using Outlook web browser. See attached image.

I tested this on my production machine, and I'm also seeing the odd text formatting.

I've cleared my cache, uninstall/reinstall a fresh Firefox version, I've used a Private browser window, and I am still running into this issue.

I'm using a M1 MacBook Air. Currently on macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 - Firefox version 131.0.3. I have a user who has a M3 MacBook Air on Sonoma 14.5 - Firefox version 126.0.1

Whenever I open a new tab in Firefox, an unexpected image appears instead of my wallpaper or the default background. I've checked my settings but can't figure out what's causing this. Has anyone else experienced this issue, and how can I fix it? Any help would be appreciated!

I prefer using the FireFox browser on YouTube, but several months ago, it began developing a problem. Videos halt and then the rotating circle appears and keeps turning and nothing happens. If I skip past it, it restarts and runs for a few minutes, but then stops again. The machine is W-10, FF ver. 115.6.0esr (64-bit) but it can also be configured to run W-7 and it does it there too. A number of longer, higher quality videos (8kEarth, 8kParadise) don't seem to have the problem and it only does it on YT. All the videos run correctly with Chrome. I've refreshed FF, but it hasn't helped. I also disabled hardware acceleration. Anyone else had a problem with this?

Firefox 131.0.3 (64-bit) on Windows Windows 10 Pro 22H2

Picking a link from the Firefox jump list opens a new tab for the link correctly. However, it always used to be that the pertinent window was then brought to the front. That no longer happens. (For about the last two years - I am only now looking for a solution.)

All other programs, including all my other browsers, do come to the front as expected.

Is the correct behavior to be configured somewhere in Firefox or Windows? All help welcome!

Good morning - as of 24th October I am no longer able to drag and drop images to my desk top.

My mac is up to date 15.0.1

Firefox is up to date 131.0.3

Does anyone have a solution please?

Thanks!

Hey! I did two updates this morning. One was removing my ex-wife as a computer admin, which meant that I'm now my Mac's primary admin. The second was downloading the Mac software update that addressed a security flaw.

As you can see in the image attached, I now no longer see my extensions in my toolbar. I've re-installed them and they appear for a second and then disappear. This includes uBlock origin and Bitwarden - neither which appear to be operating even though they appear in my Settings to be active. Any suggestions?
