Simply help me find how to double space. It is not obvious.

I started using Apple computers in 1980. A university professor, i urged my students to buy, Mac, even though the University was committed to the other.

I am forgetting things I knew relating to computer, in this case. Your Support site hides 'Double space' why? John Klassen

My website https://www.kdka100.org will not load all data on its front page on Firefox, but works fine on Edge and Chrome. I have looked for settings to correct but to no avail. I spoke to the hosting company and all certificates should be OK now. The front page portion being blocked has photos which use the rollover feature to display text. The rest of the site appears to be working as it should. Any help appreciated.

Currently running 115.4.0esr, 64 bit... I have auto updates disabled via the json policy, yet every day I keep getting the warning about an update required and must go to download it... How can I disable the warning? It is annoying.

As well, while here in the forums, I did the "about firefox" thing to get the version and despite my settings, FF downloaded an update and wants me to restart to install it... what if I dont want it?

I get that you folks want to make things .... right... but there have been many changes that I am not fond of. Please respect my privacy and let me update by my own choice.

Thanks :)

I have just had a new update 115.0.3 and again it has blocked most of the internet sites (all working yesterday no problems) due to secure connection failed.

Error code: SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP

This is about the 3rd / 4th time it has happened this year alone.

Are you not able to produce an update without blocking over 80% of internet sites when updated?

The strangest thing is other browsers are able to connect to all of the sites.

Hello. The Owl Zoom add on for Firefox OSX has stopped working. No changes made to any options or add ons. Date noticed about mid- December 2023. Reverting Firefox to its state from before the issue occurred did not resolve the issue. This process does not work: "Click on 'Settings' and the pop up menu has an item for 'Zoom'. Click on 'Normal 100%' and a pop up list for several zoom values should appear but it does not appear. In addition there is no Owl Zoom icon in the video task bar. This has happened on two iMacs and one Macbook Pro at the same time so not device specific.

I recently updated my Firefox browser, and unfortunately, my trusted anti-virus software, ESET, no longer redirects pre-selected websites like banking, PayPal, and insurance to secure pages. This feature has been working flawlessly for years but seems to have stopped functioning in Firefox alone. I prefer using Firefox as my primary browser and would like to find a solution that allows this redirection feature to work again. Can you assist me with this issue?

Is there a quicker way to delete over 1,000 old contacts in my address book which have been collected over the years and are no longer needed. There are no tick boxes which would enable multiple deletion and it will take forever for me to sort out which ones to keep and which to delete.

Thank you for any help.

I recently updated browser and now I have a tab that I can't get rid of, I think it's the sync set up tab because it wants me to sync all my devices with firefox. It currently sits at 33% wanting me to upload firefox on my devices. I like firefox I've been using it as default browser on my computer since the beginning and with that being said I just want to keep things the way they are, I don't want to sync everything. To be honest I have loaded firefox on my iPhone a while back and never really used it as I'm accustom to Safari on the iPhone. I'm old school and old and like things the way they are lol.

Yesterdat both Wordle, with and without logging into the NY Times, and Twitter, worked normally. Today neither site is working on Firefox and both are working on Chrome. I've done everything suggested. Cleared cookies, checked for any odd things and done a system restore going back a week. Nothing worked and that indicates the problem is in Firefox not either program. Please help. I have Windows 10, latest update and the newest Firefox.
