Firefox for Mac - issues with Google apps (music, youtube)
In the past few weeks I have had issues loading Google based services in Firefox. I at first assumed it was thanks to my old macbook having issues, but now I have a brand new macbook that I freshly installed Yosemite and Firefox on, same issues. Google music fails to load, most songs will not play, eventually giving an error that the page needs to be refreshed. Youtube preview shots load slowly if at all, ads won't load, movies won't load. A few restarts and refreshes of the page seem to help, but not always.
I have 0 plugins installed, this is a baseline install of FIrefox.
Safari and Chrome work fine on the same (new) machine on the apps in question. I've seen a few questions similar posted, but no real answers. IPV6 is enabled, but my home network and provider support it fully, and no other sites/issues are present.
