Firefox Community Forum

The last few days my computer has a long time connecting to the internet I saw a notification from Mozilla that they updated some type of program that might effect the connections that it might take longer to connect well it does and by the time it connects it say to long to connect so no connections at all before they did this upgrade or what ever my computer always connected johnny on the spot now it doesn't so the upgrade just don't work I think I saw something like a AI thing any ideas or what I am about ready to go to another browser program it's just not working for me I have windows 11.

I am on v130 of Firefox and on some websites it just freezes. I cannot tab across. Even if i refresh nothing. But when i use Chomer all working fine. Read some things on how to correct this but does not work. Any advise?

No matter which way I try to close it, Firefox Will Not Close and stays open 24/7. I do not know how to get this browser to close! Firefox continues to freeze and shut itself down, but NOT close out. I do believe it is a security risk. Thank You for your help.

My computer seemed to be going slowly so I restarted it. The text in emails was lagging. After a restart nothing changed. Then Firefox became absolutely unresponsive after restart.

I have installed Firefox again. There is no change.

The toolbars are still there. But if I type something in the search button, nothing happens. If I click on one of my shortcuts nothing happens.

Help!

I have tried doing the History > Forget about this site stuff and deleting cookies on individual sites. Still, I cannot get past the login page for a number of websites that are crucial to my operations. Like Elementor.com. when I need to connect to my account, I enter my username and password and it just stays frozen on the login screen. If I go the Edge, it works just fine, but FF keeps hanging on websites????

Hello,

I am unable to use "Restore Previous Session", "Recently Closed Tabs" or "Recently Closed Windows" options despite having Firefox settings in Privacy & Security set to have Firefox "Remember history". These options are greyed out. I have tried toggling between the Privacy & Security settings between "Remember History" and "Custom settings for history" as well as deleting and redownloading firefox but the options still remain greyed out. My Mac os is Ventura 13.0. Please help!

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I just updated my firefox browser. And had numerous tabs that were still open. Usually when I have update it I go to history and click on recently closed windows/tabs and everything comes back on.

But this time, there's nothing there! I'm missing all of the windows/tabs that were opened before. I look in my history tab and there's nothing there either from the time the firefox was updated.

Before Firefox had something called restore previous session. And that's not there either.

Can you please help me get my old tabs/windows opened again? Please

So I'm not sure how to search this, I couldn't find anything after trying...so apologies as I'm sure this is covered somewhere. Anyway, when I wake computer from sleep, Firefox is often unresponsive while disk activity is maxed - so I think what's happening is it's storing pages/tabs to disk and reloading them (slowww*) vs just getting them fresh from the web.

If I have diagnosed this right, is there a setting that can be changed to disable this?

(I already tried browser.cache.disk.enable -> false - this had no effect).

Thanks in advance.

• Yes this is an old drive not SSD but for crying out loud I shouldn't have to upgrade hardware for this, in theory at least....

Hello: Passwords from CSV file: "firefox logins.csv" does NOT show up in the "Import Browser Data" box? I reinstalled a fresh copy of Windows7 and firefox (Firefox Setup 115.14.0esr.exe). I'm unable to import my "Passwords from CSV file" because it is not included in the "Import Browser Data" box (see Attachments (pics). Note: I do not use the Browser in this picture only firefox. How than can I import this .csv file? Regards -mdc

Back in the days it was always possible to change Proxy port number (or, I believe, any other numeric value) by moving the mouse scrolling wheel when the cursor is placed inside the related field. I don't know whose intelligent decision it was to disable this functionality, but it has gone since the last update (v130.0). Now the window scrolls regardless of the cursor position. It looks like it works fine, but for those who are used to this kind of functionality, it turns out to be inconvenient.

Please, roll this back before it's too late :) Thank you.

I can't see all of the bookmarks added to a particular topic. I can only see the oldest ones. When I try to search them or edit them they are all there but there seems to be a limit to the ones which are displayed. I think this behaviour has just started after an update.

I have been connecting to a cloud pc (windows365.microsoft.com - because my employer won't allow contractors to access their network directly any longer) using Mozilla Firefox. All went well until I upgraded Firefox to 130.0 Now the cloud PC still "connects" (as in open remote port, configure remote connection, establish secure connection, etc.) BUT where it used to show the (full screen) unauthorized access message which you had to acknowledge, it now just shows a black screen. My account details can still be accessed from here (and it even shows a successful sign-in through Mozilla Firefox). The Windows11 desktop is not shown though, so effectively useless. I was wondering if there is a setting in Firefox 130.0 that prevents this acknowledge message screen from being displayed ?

I can connect to the internet just fine most of the time, I can use google chrome just fine, but the moment I open up Firefox my computer loses all connection to the internet until I close firefox. At which point I once again have a normal connection. I have tried repairing the program, I have tried a full uninstall and re-install.

I cannot login into my spectrum.net account using Firefox. I get error IDID-4000, which no one at Spectrum seems to understand, other than to wait 24 hours and try again. I can login into my account using Edge just fine. I use Firefox exclusively and don't like having to switch. anything you can do to fix this login problem?
