Firefox Community Forum

Hello, I am from Ukraine and I use a translator, sorry for that. I have poor physical and mental health. I have Windows XP and there is no possibility to buy a newer computer. Yesterday all my browser extensions were disabled. They are very important to me. I accept and understand all the risks. I beg you, please let me use these extensions. Please help...

As per the subject, I can't seem to get my webcam to start specifically on Google Meet on Firefox. The microphone works fine and the red webcam symbol beside the URL appears, but I do not get any video feed, only microphone audio. The webcam and microphone both function on https://webcammictest.com/ and I have allowed the camera and microphone privacy permissions for Google Meet on Firefox. I have also refreshed Firefox and they work just fine on Chrome, but I would still prefer using Firefox for my meetings. I am using Windows 10 22H2 and Firefox is at Version 136.0.1, which supposedly are up to date. Am I missing something?

When driving I need to pay attention, so when I ask the AI to find something or look up a place. The AI will say this is what I found, and expect me to look at it make acoice or whatever. This action well I'm driving is not safe. How do I get the AI to just tell me what they found?

Hello!

I am not sure if this is a Firefox specific question or one that relates to Windows, but I can't seem to figure out how to turn off the feature of a two-finger swipe either making the webpage jump back, or forward. I haven't been able to find any answers by looking it up on my own, and can't find where to change this feature in either Windows or Firefox settings. Is this a feature that can be turned off?

Any help would be very appreciated!

CONTEXT Many societies, including most of the Spanish and Portuguese speaking world (~730 million people), use two part surnames. This means the full name in most official documents, including passports, take the format:

Name: <name> Surname: <first surname from father> <first surname from mother>

Here is an example of the famous (deceased) Spanish poet:

Name: Federico Surname: García Lorca

Note the two part surname. There is no hyphen nor should there be one. He has TWO surnames.

PROBLEM A recent update in Firefox introduced a single field for name under Settings > Privacy & Security > Saved Addresses which is used by Autofill to fill forms.

Our poet would enter "Federico García Lorca" under name. If he were then to purchase a plane ticket and rely on Firefox Autofill to fill in the details, Autofill -- in a very narrow anglophone view -- will interpret "García" as a middle name and suppress it.

As a result, the plane ticket will be issued to "Federico Lorca" who is not even the same person, and who may not even exist. Moreover, he may be denied boarding the plane or refused entry into the USA because the name on the ticket does not match any of his official documentation.

I have had to disable Autofill for this reason.

SOLUTION A proposed solution is to do like Edge does: Have separate Name and Surname fields the user can specify.

Thank you.

Typical corporate BS refusing to allow access to your support staff!

Why on earth do you expect everyone to be programmers?

Since your browser refuses to update properly I’m obviously needing to find someone else to pay them to replace your crap since you have intentionally made support access impossible and refused to acknowledge messages to fix your malfunctioning update issues!!
