Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
- Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookie files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Hello!
Go to Options>Privacy>History>click "firefox will:" and click "use custom settings for your history" and make sure the "accept cookies from sites" is enabled.
Sorry you're having problems with Firefox!
It might be that the cookies.sqlite file is damaged. You could try moving it out of the profile after closing Firefox. Firefox will make a new one the next time it opens. You will have to redo all the logins. If that does not help, you can move the old cookie file back into the profile.
