Hello everyone.

I've been having some issues with Mozilla lately. I don't know if my CPU is in bad condition or not but, when I change tabs through my Windows, say changing tabs from Mozilla to Spotify and changing it back to Mozilla, my CPU gets very full, causing my cursor to lag, and Mozilla to be unresponsive for a couple of seconds first and it gets kinda worse as I continue to use my PC, causing the lag to occur for over 10 seconds.

I have seen some similar complaints on the web but they date back to 2014ish times.

What do you think? Is it somewhat my CPU's problem or did Mozilla's handling get worse over a patch or something?

I enjoy Mozilla and don't want to quit using it. Any help would be much appreciated.

Uninstalled Adblock, have looked in Extensions on Mozilla and its not showing, however, with another website I have just tried to access,error message saying I have Adblock installed when I havent. I've also put this website on the safe websites and not made any difference.

Many thanks

When I try and use canvas (https://canvas.oregonstate.edu/) the website is unusable. I tried clearing my history, and cache, but that didn't help much. This started after my Firefox updated

For almost a week now, I keep getting a message on a site I've been going to for more than 10 years (deviantart) when I use firefox on my computer, which I am not having these issues accessing using Safari on my phone.

403 ERROR The request could not be satisfied. Request blocked. We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a configuration error. Try again later, or contact the app or website owner. If you provide content to customers through CloudFront, you can find steps to troubleshoot and help prevent this error by reviewing the CloudFront documentation.

The request ID changes each time.

The steps I have taken so far:

• Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions (everything was fine)
• Reloaded page using Shift+ Left Click to bypass cache
• Reloaded page with Ctrl + F5
• Started Firefox in Troubleshoot mode to assure it wasn't my extensions (I only use ublock but better safe than sorry)
• I disabled extensions after reloading in usual mode

What steps are next after these basic troubleshooting? I was hoping to use that site to share creations with friends.

Although listed as one of the options for default language, the current version of Firefox, which is my default browser, does not accept Brazilian Portuguese as the default language. It only accepts the Portuguese version, from Portugal which, to me, who speak Brazilian Portuguese, with all due respect, is a pain in the butt. I have tried, dozens of times, to delete the Portuguese version and set the Brazilian version as the default language. It works until I shut down the computer. The next time I turn on the computer, to my eternal dismay, Firefox cancels my previous language setting and reverts itself to the damn Portuguese version, which I dislike to the extreme.So I am, hereby, taking the issue to you with high hopes that this abdomally be straightened out once and forever. Many heartfelt thanks and wishing you sucess. Damião

How can I disable COMPLETELY the tab previews a/when I hover over a tab, and b/ when moving tabs (using left click and hold)? I've tried the various options listed in other questions on the support forum: nglayout.enable_drag_image = false browser.tabs.hoverPreview.enabled = false browser.tabs.hoverPreview.showThumbnails = false

Along with unticking "Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar" in settings.

None of these works to completely disable the previews.

Is my only option to reinstall an older version of Firefox... again?

Firefox 133.0b6 (64-bit) Windows 10 Pro

I'm having much difficulty in attaching a article I see to Facebook. Its possible the problem may be I'm not using the right instruction on the Firefox options when I right click the article I want to attach to Facebook. Some of those options are, Save link as, Copy link, when I right click for options. Can someone explain what is the right option to use? And, how do I proceed once I choose the correct option to make that attachment to a Facebook message I'm replying to? There are times a picture of the article will attach to the Facebook message, but the text that is associated with the attachment will not appear? Can someone please help? Thank you.

Today I was no longer able to stream movies on Amazon Prime or Youtube. I watch Amazon movies most nights, watched last night. Tonight I got a message when I tried to continue watching a tv series on Amazon that I've watched for weeks. It said I had to update Firefox and told me how, but when I went thru the process Firefox said it was up to date. On Youtube I got an error msg. 99,999 . What is happening?

Can someone please tell me how to disable the new Sidebar? It is interrupting all of my workflow on the screen and it is frustrating with all of the choice and customization options in Firefox, that there would be no way to disable it.

How the hell do I remove this crappy sidebar!?!?! Your suggestion of tapping the cog and clicking on sidebar button DOESN'T WORK! REMOVE IT! It is annoying, terrible! Why would you mess with something that didn't need to be fixed ? What are you, Jaguar? Remove it now, actually do something and fix it.

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out because I have some concerns regarding Norton’s HTTPS scanning feature. Recently, I noticed that Norton scans HTTPS traffic, and I’m unsure about how this impacts my privacy and security. While I understand the feature is meant to detect threats, I’m particularly worried because it involves decrypting sensitive information. This raises concerns about whether my personal data, such as login credentials or payment details, could be exposed during the scanning process. Has anyone else experienced issues or found this feature problematic? I'd love to hear about your experiences and whether there are any steps I can take to ensure my online security without risking privacy.

I also have found a names of site that were blocked in the report generated from Norton

Thanks in advance!

I have just logged on for the day and the Side Bar has changed. It now has an extra layer making it wider which now pushes a highly used website page off the screen which is very annoying because I don't want to reduce it's zoom any more.

I use the Side Bar to bookmark various links within this website as shortcuts to navigate it.

How do I remove this unwanted extra layer?

Please find attached a Snipping Tool file.

The unwanted extra layer is the bar down the left showing my Bookmark icon on the top and the Settings icon on the bottom neither of which I want or need and this is causing the extra width to the sidebar which is upsetting my viewing. How do I remove this new bar?

I just reinstalled FF because I was getting an XPCOM error message, and now, when I try to sign into my ATT.COM site, I get an error message that I can't get past; https://oidc.idp.clogin.att.com/mga/sps/oauth/oauth20/authorize?response_type=id_token&client_id=m14186&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.att.com%2Fmsapi%2Flogin%2Funauth%2Fservice%2Fv1%2Fhaloc%2Foidc%2Fredirect&state=from%3Dnx&scope=openid&response_mode=form_post&nonce=PUKPnPRT

Prior to reloading FF, I did not have this problem.

This happened too much, like 6 times when using firefox in this month. I dont want to shut the program because I got unsaved notes in it. I was listening to music and it just began to play it non stop. and it dont respond.

please help, a million thanks!

I try to restart network or suspend the process nothing works. If I could make firefox reopen to it's original state+ cookies; no site reloaded and get back my incogico it would be much appreaciated.
