In Thunderbird's Settings under "Language & fonts, Choose the languages used to display menus, messages, and notifications from Thunderbird" I have selected Danish and English. Now I would like to remove English, because my folder pane is displayed in English, even though I have selected Danish as the first language (I am from Denmark). But I cannot remove English in Settings, only move Danish or English up or down. I cannot click on the Remove check mark, neither for Danish nor English. Does anyone know why?

Overvejer at droppe Microsoft 365 til fordel for LibreOffice og Thunderbird, som begge er gratis og virker fint. Jeg vil høre om nogen der benytter Thunderbird kan få mails oversat automatisk eller ved at højreklikke og vælg oversæt, som det er muligt i Outlook Synes det er besværligt at skulle kopier teksten for at få den oversat. På forhånd tak for svaret

Description:

In Firefox version 135.0.1, when navigating to a website by clicking a bookmark or by pasting a URL (without first activating an Asian language input method in the address bar), Asian language input methods are inactive within webpage text fields. Only English characters can be entered. Switching languages or input methods has no effect.

Steps to Reproduce:

• Open Firefox 135.0.1.
• Navigate to a website by clicking a bookmark or by pasting a URL into the address bar (do not activate an Asian language input method in the address bar before navigating).
• Click on a text field within the webpage.
• Attempt to activate an Asian language input method.

Expected Result: The Asian language input method should activate, allowing the user to enter characters in the selected language.

Actual Result: The Asian language input method remains inactive. Only English characters can be entered.

Workaround: Clicking on the address bar and activating an Asian language input method there enables the input method to function correctly in webpage text fields afterward. This workaround persists for all webpages within the same Firefox window. Alternatively, if the user first types an URL into the address bar, while using an asian language input method, the problem does not occur.

Environment: Browser: Firefox 135.0.1 Operating System: Windows 11 Input Methods: Microsoft Chinese Input and Microsoft Japanese Input (both exhibit the same issue) Websites: Google, Bing, Yahoo and other websites.

Additional Information: This issue does not occur in Microsoft Edge.

Hello,

I'm quite excited about the translation feature as that was one of the features that was always really useful in Chrome but I missed in Firefox. However, I noticed that Korean is not among the languages for translation.

Is there any timeline or plan to add Korean to the list of languages? Are there any complications that prevent Korean being added at all?

I'd highly appreciate if you could give me some insight into this.

Kind regards, Christopher

Please,

I have a Debian 11 VAIO laptop, with Firefox ESR 115.14.0esr 64.

I have tried the settings menus (there is nothing about translation there, not even in languages.

Tried as well the about:config (several entries).

Nothing happens, annoying auto-translation bar shows up all the time and automatically translates several languages.

Really can't stand any longer...

Please help!

Appreciate.

Bonjour, lorsque je souhaite envoyer un nouveau message, Thunderbird affiche un message rempli de signes. Comment résoudre ce problème ? Je vous joins une image du "nouveau message" qui s'affiche. Merci pour votre aide.

____________ Hello, when I want to send a new message, Thunderbird displays a message full of signs. How to solve this problem? I attach an image of the "new message" that is displayed. Thank you for your help.

As far as I can tell from reading the help pages, the Firefox translation feature should automatically translate any page in any available language, unless explicitly set not to do so. However, I observe that no translation occurs unless I first select text, right click, and select translate, and even then, the translation is presented as unformatted text in a separate dialog box, which is not much better than copying and pasting web pages into some other translator service. Am I missing something here?

Sadly, this is not even close to being competitive with the Google Translate level of functionality. I use Google Translate every day to read package labels in grocery stores, road signs, and a host of other written sources of information. Occasionally, I even use it to hold conversations with people I would not otherwise be able to talk to. So far, I am nearly monolingual, and I am unwilling to do without this; I probably wouldn't travel if it were not available. It does tie me to that fraction of the surface area of the earth where high speed internet access is generally available, but I don't really need to go any places where it is not; I am not trying to hike across Antarctica. I understand that there is a loss of privacy when dealing with Google, but I do whatever I can to fend that off, and the value of the free services I receive in exchange is huge. What's the future of Firefox in this respect?

Hello Forum, since yesterday I receive some emails by thunderbird only as a letter salad.

Ionos claims that this is no ionos issue...

I am using thunderbird 141.0 on Windows 11. But The problem ocurred already on Windows 10. Not all Emails are shown wrong only a few from different countries and sender. I have already tried to repair my inbox, checked the size of inbox folder (5,5mb) and reinstalled thunderbird. I have the profile folder in a different path on a different hdd.

I am desperate... Can you help me?

Japanese characters usually do not render.

I can reproduce this issue by:

• going to the Wikipedia page for the katakana Unicode block.
• going to any YouTube comment with Japanese text.
• hovering over the screenshot of the YouTube comment so that the tooltip containing the name of the file is shown.

On YouTube the text renders only if 1.27916663885116563rem <= font-size <= 1.92083328962326036rem. Increasing `gfx.font_rendering.fontconfig.max_generic_substitutions` from 3 to 99 allows some punctuation to render and makes the text take up horizontal space. Further increase of the value to 999 causes the interpunct to render in the Wikipedia page.

Witam. Kiedy zostanie dodany język norweski w tłumaczeniu stron? Od wielu lat używam Firefox i nie chciał bym zmienić przeglądarki tylko przez brak języka norweskiego🥺

Firefox 139.0.1 on W11

When I open a page in a foreign language, such as English in my case, I don’t have access to a translation module. Yet this feature exists in Firefox, but I don’t understand why the translation isn’t being offered.

When I search for "Translation" in the Settings, I do find this translation module. I’ve downloaded all the languages and restarted my browser.

When I click on the Settings button for this module (see screenshot), in the section “Translations will be done automatically for the following languages,” I can't add any language there.

Despite this, when I go back to a web page in a foreign language, like a news article in English, I still don’t see the translation icon in the address bar.

Can you help me resolve this issue? Can I provide any additional information to help?

Thank you

Have new W11 laptop. Installed Firefox and have set it to my default browser but if I use the search box it opens the results in Edge. Where is the setting to enable W11 search box to use Firefox.
