You can try
  1) URL about:config, set javascript.options.showInConsole = true
  2) restart the browser,
  3) Open Firefox > Tools > Error Console
Any errors?

Double check that all of your extensions are up to date.

Otherwise you have to disable your addons. Since you have a lot, you
can try 'binary search'. Disable half. Try. If the problem goes away,
then one of the addons in that halve causes the problem. Repeat with
half again.

We have two reports of problems with HP Smart Web Printing and some
reports about anti-virus addons. In the past Skype addon and
HTMLValidator interfered.
