Jag har en iMac och jag har en Airbook. Båda har Firefox, på samma konto dvs sitter samman. Ändå skiljer vissa saker. Detta är en fråga om språket. Ett litet problem är att på airbook'en förstår inte firefox att jag vill skriva på svenska. Tex i denna ruta där frågan ställs markerar den vartenda ord och tycker det är dålig engelska dvs stryker under med rött.

Jag har jämfört inställningarna de bägge datorerna emellan. Har Firefox addon (tillägg) för Svenska. En märklig sak är att det verkar omöjligt att ta bort engelska språkpaketet om det finns där (den dator där det funkar saknar engelska tillägget som extra alternativ). Om jag klickar på något av de markerade orden här och kollar "språk" så anges att det är engelska - varför har inte svenska språkpaketet gått in, fast det står som installerat om man ser via tilläggens inställningar (där endast valet "ta bort", dvs är tillagt).

Detta dyker endast upp via Firefox, ej Chrome, alltså inte djupare i datorns inställningar om dess språk utan förefaller vara direkt en bugg eller felinställning i just Firefox. Men VAR? Varför får datorn för sig att jag försöker skriva på engelska, när svenska är installerat och inställt för.

Hello. Idk how this happened, but my bookmarks have quadrupled. Idk why I bookmark so much, but I had about 40 folders for bookmarks, until I now found I have 160. There's 4 of every folder. How do I clean this up? I know Edge has a "delete duplicate bookmarks" button. But in Firefox, I can only find add-on extensions that claim they can clean out duplicate bookmarks, but having tried 3, I've found none to work. Any suggestions?

How do I prevent any and all inline animations from autoplay? When I right-click the offending image there are options for "Play" and "Loop". I can stop the animation by unchecking "Loop" but I do not want it to play ever. I only want to see static images on a web page unless I initiate the animation.

I cannot open the find on page toolbar. No matter if I use the ctr+f shortcut or click "find on page" in the menu, the toolbar with the text field doesn't come up. I checked and the shortcut works fine in other apps. I tried restarting firefox in the troubleshoot mode - the problem persists. I'm on the latest version of Firefox (138.0.1) and running Windows 11.

I use Firefox for work and need to have a lot of tabs open, in a certain order, in a single window.

Frequently, when I click on a tab, Firefox moves that tab all the way to the right and I have to scroll over and move it back to its proper place. It also sometimes happens when I type in a text field on a tab and hit return. The tab "disappears" and I find it all the way to the right. It never used to do this in older versions of Firefox.

I don't think I'm doing something different than usual to trigger it. It just seems to be at random.

I really need to figure out how to stop Firefox from doing this. It's frustrating, disruptive, and slows down my work.

Platform: MacOS Ventura 13.7.5 and Firefox 137.0.2

Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

Every time I open Firefox recently, and the Yahoo.com web page starts up, I get an annoying prompt from global privacy control, that asks to allow or not allow. IT'S ANNOYING. I went into the settings for that apparent add on feature, that I DIDN'T add, and set all 5 settings to FALSE, but the program still pops up. It ALSO screws up the format of the Firefox web page, and shows the Yahoo News feed totally different and it's also VERY ANNOYING HOW do I totally get rid of the global privacy control? I can select the Firefox settings under security to tell web pages to not sell the info, as far as I know, correct, so I don't need the retarded global add on? ?? I want Firefox news feed like it was before the update. Thank you very much... HOPEFULLY!

Now there is no "other" category for topic of question. This concerns display, layout, and functionality.

Having a huge problem with Firefox recently. It looks and behaves like Microsoft type display, security, and function all around has been superimposed on Firefox. Every time I need to do something online my effort is first redirected to trying to fix configuration problem on Firefox.

It is bad enough to have to do battle with windows 11 to config the layout and display so that it is functional instead of going from one screen to another and another when there is an issues that needs configuring, which always then requires a search and fixing it in Microsoft registry (if possible). Now that is happening with the Firefox display, layout, and functionality which requires a search try to find a page where some kind soul has provided a fix for FF via about:config (if possible).

My brower updated to 136.xx in mid-march after I had already disabled auto update. However, have not had problems until recently, so it seems to be something the microsoft system has started doing to compromise the configured functionality of Firefox. It is no impossible to update or change passwords because "microsoft security" has taken over. Did Microsoft buy controlling interest in Firefox, or what.

Today The layout has started being a problem too. Very elementary without features, with huge words and images although I have changed nothing in Firefox. It is as dumbed down and tedious as Windows 10 when it was brand new. I use a desktop and I really don't want it to look and behave with the limits, and appearnace of a large sized mobile phone screen.

No Firefox update since mid March is showing, however something is interferring with the Firefox display, layout, and functionality. I can only guess it is the Windows 11 OS . . .

Is there a way to protect Firefox from Microsoft meddling with the Firefox configuration?

I have not yet tried to stop enhanced security in each website that is a problem (though most of them currently are, not simply individual websites). Perhaps that is the problem . . . at this problem it needs to be universally disabled if that IS the problem. All the additional security being piled on is simply hoops to jump through for users. We all know it does not stop the pros who are intent on hacking as a team sport. I really do not want to have to fool around signing to a Firefox account, and getting a code to be able to complete the signin to be able configure the brower to simply access the internet.

Starting to think FF, including support, is being managed and responded to by A.I. - which always ends up being a programmer problem that creates the limits. Intentional or not is the question.,,,,

Hoping some kind souls have found solutions, or locations to solutions they are willing to share.

Thanks - from redirected and disenchanted in ABQ

Can someone please explain to me why the extension Video Downloadhelper works so erratically? It seems like it's gotten worse over time. According to Perplexity AI it probably has to with Mozilla's incessant updates; I have no idea if that's true or not, I just know it doesn't work very well anymore.
