Firefox Community Forum

The problem I encounter has happened since I begin to use Firefox on Windows 11. The same problem happened to my Macbook as well, but a workaround is available. While with Windows 11, I can't find the solution anywhere on the web. Whenever I type on the browser, if I write a non-character notation right behind the word (like "this,"), the word would usually auto delete itself or sometimes, the word clone itself out (e.g, wordword, thisthi, etc.) or it deletes a small section of words right behind that non-char. I don't have insert turning on. I am quite uncertain whether you can reproduce this error on your laptop (for me, I have been through 2 windows 11 laptop and this error still persist). This error seems to only occurs for Vietnamese (Telex and VNI) default keyboard from Microsoft, Russian and English work fine. I suspect that it is caused by Microsoft Vietnamese, but I have unchecked all kind of spelling checking on settings. So should I use a third-party Vietnamese language typing for this situation or does it caused by something else?

https://home.oki-toki.net/login is a VOIP site, it calls the client after connection a new tab opens. The problem is that I can't hear the client until I click on the “oki toki” tab. When I click, I can see that only at that moment the client is connected (the button on the site indicates this, take my word for it). Previously on Chrome there was no such problem and I could hear the client immediately without having to go back to “oki toki”. I have enabled all sites to automatically play video and audio. In the deep settings, I disabled the function to automatically unload tabs when running out of memory. This did not help. This problem regardless of whether the browser is open or minimized. Please help

if you join for example a jitsi meeting and switch to another tab then the favicon of the jitsi page gets replaced by a red microphone icon. this replacement keeps running in an animation favicon -> microphone icon -> favicon -> ...

for motion sensitive persons this is terrible.

i tried the following settings i found googling but the animation is still there: ```

1. webrtcIndicator {

 display: none;

} ```

``` .tab-icon-overlay[sharing] {

   display: none !important;

} ``` - `ui.prefersReducedMotion 1` - `toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled false`

how to disable the animation

When I highlight a word while browsing, and right-click that, I get the option to search with Google, the search engine it is configured for. However I often would rather go directly to Wikipedia. I do NOT want to make that the default for search, but I would find having another line below "Search Google for " that offers "Search Wikipedia for ". Such an option would save me considerable work. Is there such an option? If so I could not find it. (If not, dare I suggest it as an enhancement?)

Thanks!

I've just transferred from one Windows 10 install to another, and wanted to transfer my Firefox profiles along with me. Initially when I transferred over my main profile, the addons worked at first but broke after a short while (specifically there were still as many addon buttons in my toolbar as before, but they were all blank and did nothing), and wouldn't restore after shutting down and reopening Firefox. At first I tried disabling and reenabling each extension, and that worked, but after shutting down and reopning Firefox, they were all broken again. I looked for fixes and tried the solutions in this ask: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1260445; first, I tried jscher2000's solution of "deleting" extensions.json by renaming it, but it only fixed a couple addons (BitWarden and uBlock Origin, mainly). Then I tried cor-el's solution of deleting combatibility.ini, and that still only had BitWarden, uBlock Origin, and maybe one or two others working - it also seemed to slightly further the problem, as the toolbar was now set to default without even the blank addon buttons, and the extensions overflow button now just opened about:addons.

But, then I deleted the profile and copied it over again, but this time I preemptively went into extensions.json and changed all the paths to the new correct path (I also did so for the one path address in pkcs11.txt just in case, because it was the only other thing that came up in a search in the profile folder that had that hard-baked full path that might need updating; I don't know what pkcs11.txt does but I just wanted to be sure), and then (not sure if this part matters quite as much) did Create a New Profile and selected that existing copied-over folder as the folder for that profile to use. Lo and behold, all my addons worked! And they've continued to work as normal and not break through several times of closing and reopening both that specific profile and Firefox overall, and even with a couple shut downs and restarts of Windows.

However..... I tried doing that exact procedure (copying over profile folder, editing the paths in extensions.json and pkcs11.txt to be the new correct ones, Create a New Profile and selecting that folder) for my secondary profile, and yet still most addons end up nonfunctional with a defaulted toolbar and extension overflow button opening about:addons just like in the main profile after I did the compatibility.ini fix (even though I didn't even touch it on this profile). After several tries of doing that with differences in naming of the new profile, or also trying to delete compatibility.ini, still I got the same result. Then I tried doing the "disable and then reenable each extension" thing again like I tried first on my primary profile, and it brought the extensions back and in their correct order in the toolbar, but when I exited Firefox and reopened it, they were back to the multitude of blank buttons (which, at least, was a change from before). I have no idea what's different, as far as I'm aware I'm doing the exact same thing that worked on the first profile yet it's still ending up broken.

I've also now tried copying over a third profile in the same manner, and it works perfectly just like the first/primary profile did. But the second profile still just will not work.

I've been using Firefox for a few months now to follow online training courses or videos on the conversation papillon (www.conversationpapillon.com) and conversation santé (www.conversationsante.com) websites. For a few weeks now, the videos are no longer accessible on the pages of these two sites. The window of the video is empty. However, if I try the same link in Google Chrome, it works fine. I've contacted the publishers of these two sites, who tell me that nothing has changed on their sites in recent weeks. He advised me to contact you to find out more. Can you help me? I prefer to use Firefox, which protects my privacy better. Thanks in advance. Regards, Jean-Pierre R.

bold textUpon restarting and opening Firefox it always opens in a small screen. I need to change the default. opening settings in Firefox or MacOS but cannot find anything. I have emptied my history and cache without improvment.

I want to access my android tabs from my desktop tabs but it keeps "Sign in to Firefox on your other devices" i am singed in on other devices and i can access my desktop tabs from them yet i suddenly became unable to do the opposite, it keeps telling me to sing in to other devices and i do that but nothing happens.

I had a dedicated Firefox webpage popup yesterday that listed all my open tabs, tab history. I closed it before I noted the address and how I got there. I searched through my browsing history and I don't see it. I have never been able to access that page before. How do I bring it up again?

Thanks!

there are two issues, (rtx 3090 for HW decoding)

1) the first one, video blocking (when quality switching)

2) sometimes freezing (especially in 2k resolution)

Also i have tried the other chromium based browsers, they do not any of this problems

Updated Foxfire with that usual automatic request on my desktop - has worked for years. Now I am getting the message : Error: Platform version 131.0.3 is not compatible with miniVersion >=131.0.2

When I select OK- the site closes out. I cannot get access to even check the download. Thank you
