When I have multiple tabs open, around the 6th tab, the entire computer freezes. I have to press the physical button to shut down and restart. This behavior started with the last Firefox update. It doesn't happen when I use Brave browser. What changed to cause this?

I'm running Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint mint 100 - 1.0 version 141.0.3 (64 bit) on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon. These are the latest versions of Mint and of Firefox for Mint.

Hi,

Pressing "enter" seems to double space next line my text automatically on platforms, and pressing "alt+enter" does single spacing next line. Is there anyway to change it to single spacing? Some older help threads mention going to settings or tools to find the "composition" option but that doesn't seem to exist anymore?

Thanks

Thanks.

No matter how many times I visit Amazon.com, it WILL NOT show up on my Home Screen as an ICON. I have tried 2 Rows and 4 Rows. I visit amazon many times in a week, sometimes many times in a day and it never shows up on the Home Screen after my last Firefox Upgrade to 142.0. Before the upgrade, it was always on my Home Screen. I have deleted many ICONS hoping it would somehow fill in as I visit Amazon - but it's not happening.

How can I fix this?

Thanks!

I may have asked this before, When I launch Firefox, it opens the tab to the right of the active tab in the previous session. When I close a tab, it opens the tab to the right.

Am I wrong, or is that precisely the opposite of what you would expect or want?

Can someone please explain the logic of this? Is there anything that can be done about it?

I have this addon Select After Closing Current. Can I get some advice to set it up to work?

Also, why are there two product pages for it? link text

This is a little embarassing to admit, but my firefox suggest keeps suggesting me spankbang.com when i type sp, I noticed this when i was trying to search spanish on the search bar.

When I follow the suggestion to it's full autocomplete it leads to a video I watched a long time ago but have since cleared from my history. I tried long pressing spankbang to remove it from suggest but I don't really know how to remove this. I did include a screenshot, but the attached troubleshoot data is from my computer not my phone. I'm not sure how to include that.

Please help me, I have a date and I don't want to accidentally have that autocomplete.

Sincerely, Firefox Android User.

The front page of Firefox shows icons for websites, which you can click to go there. But it won't let me change details.

Each time I click a particular icon, it goes to a page to set up an account for that website. But I already have an account there. How can I change the icon to go to my… (read more)

Hello there,

Before (an update perhaps?), it was possible to click on a star icon located in the toolbar and it'd open the bookmarks like the bookmarks1 screenshot. Now, it requires to first click on the sidebar thingy, which allows to access the icons on the far right, which includes the bookmarks icon in question.

There's also another icon for bookmarks that can be put directly in the toolbar (bookmarks2 pic), yes, but it doesn't show all the bookmarks right away, it's not the same

So the question is: how do I do to get the Ctrl B Icon/shortcut directly in the toolbar, like it was before? I don't want to be obligated to use the sidebar when I have plenty of space left in the standard toolbar..

Thanks in advance!

When trying to preview a book in google, I receive the notification 'Website will not allow Firefox to display the page'. I read the page that explains what to do, and tried to open the page in another window, it would only be a tiny picture. If I try to left click the 'preview' button to open in another tab, there isn't an option for that. I can't take a screenshot of it because the left click goes away when I try. I understand that the block is a safety measure, but it's really annoying and I literally can't use firefox to preview books.

Hello Mozilla Firefox Team,

I would like to request that Firefox include the Somali language for website translation.

I choose Firefox because I have been told it is more secure, but currently, it does not support Somali. This makes it difficult for me to read news and websites in my native language.

Adding Somali support would provide a better user experience for Somali speakers and improve access to online information. It would also encourage me and others to continue using Firefox as our preferred browser.

Thank you for your consideration Abdi

Not sure if I had an option to best describe. I have previously ordered on ebay. Tonight I was not allowed. I am sure if I use a different browser, I would be able to place the order. I previously have ordered from Herbalife. I could use foxfire and then there was a change and I could not place the order with Herbalife. I order over the phone for a time and then I decided to use a different browser and when I did the order went through as previously. Now I seem to have the same problem with ebay. Can you help me to know what I can do to be able to use all of my apps with foxfire?
