Firefox is opening in spanish. I have it set to open in English. I have gone through all of the steps recommended MULTIPLE times with no help. Apparently Firefox doesn't care about this problem since there reports of it from MONTHS ago and it hasn't been fixed.

I have the Zoom Scheduler installed and LOVE it! But it has stopped working. When I click on the Make It A Zoom Meeting blue button when creating an event in Google Calendar, I now get the message in a pop up box:

"Your Zoom FireFox Extension session has expired. Please login again."

Where do I 'login' again?

I've ensured I was logged in to my Zoom account and Google account.

Additionally, I ensured I have the most recent version of Firefox.

I've tried removing the add on by deleting it, closing firefox and logging out of my Google Account and starting over. I was hoping by re-adding the Add on it would finally ask me for permission to share between Zoom and Google Calendar. But it just happily seemed to reinstall and then give me the same error message.

Whose issue is this - Zoom? Google Calendar? Google Workspace? Firefox? I can't even tell.

My gut says to remove completely the Add on and start over to reconfirm the permissions - but removing the Add on to trash doesn't reset it.

Any ideas? TIA.

I was using firefox fine yesterday and days before. Suddenly since I'm currently at odds with google over my account, I'm having difficulties accessing the site in my firefox browser, which was never the case. I do suspect foulplay on google's part, since were currently at odds, of course, but I'm trying to be certain. What's going on? this wasn't happening before, so why now all of a sudden? I'm redirected to this page I'm redirected to this page, among others, when trying to get to the site, what gives?

After a new installation of Firefox I tried to install Add-On. For all Add-Ons I tried it fails with the message as in the picture attached. When I install it on other computer where I also have Firefox no problem occurs. The picture shows the AdBlocker add-on, which is widely used and to my opinion cannot be corrupted. The error-message is in Dutch and my English translation would be: "Installation is cancelled because the Add-On seems to be corrupted".

Do have a solution/explanation?

Due to the proximity of 'Edit Bookmark...' and 'Delete Bookmark' in the bookmark context menu, I have accidentally deleted bookmarks on several occasions.

I know it's possible to undo deletion of a bookmark in the Library window, but I'd prefer to avoid accidentally deleting bookmarks in the first place. So I'm wondering if it's possible to remove 'Delete Bookmark' from the context menu, at least in the browser window. It doesn't matter whether or not it would remove the option from the context menu in the Library window. As long as I could still delete bookmarks with the Delete key in the Library window it would be an improvement. Alternately, if there's a way to have a confirmation dialog appear when deleting bookmarks that would also be acceptable.

I am not too good with the computer and have just starting using Firefox. I will do my best to describe my question so please bar with me. I have 2 rows of websites that I frequent...actually only using the first row and 5 spaces in the second row. When I go to a different website Firefox is automatically adding that website to one of the boxes in the second row which I do not want. How do I stop this? Question 2...using Ebay as an example...if I keep searching on Ebay and have looked at lets say 5 different pages how do I go back to the home screen without having to hit the back button 6 times? Thanks for the help. Chuck

Hi there, recently whenever I visit a website or search on google or another search engine jumbled up words are displaying. The words contain letters which are jumbled up so it is impossible to understand what the word says. I have attached a screenshot explaining my issue better. If you see in the screenshot the jumbled up words are shown in bold.

Please could you help fix this issue?

Kind regards,

Luke

When I try to log in to websites, three different usernames are prompted. One is my correct Gmail address, one is my correct mobile phone number, and the third is my correct Gmail address with 'joseph' appended in the case of Firefox, but 'busy' in the case of Chrome. How can I delete that corrupted prompt from Firefox ?

Has something changed with how Firefox Auto Login feature works? There were a number of low risk sites that I had memorized the User & PW for and every time I went to those sites I'd be logged in. A little while ago this stopped working.

I've done a little digging and all the memorized PWs are still in Firefox. If I click on the User name I will see the correct User appear as a suggestion and using it will log me in.

I've reset Firefox and have gone back to these sites and manually reentered the User & PW, but when I go back, again I have to go through the steps to log in. I also reached out to one of the sites to see if they have made any changes that would prevent Firefox from an Auto Login and they said they had not made any changes.

I always set Banks, Email and any other site that could cause an issue to Never remember the Login info. So I'd like to turn off this added restriction if it is something Firefox has added.

Thoughts or recommendations?

I am trying to work out if a cookie on a web page sent an alert to an ambulance chaser for a minor injury I received. One way to narrow the search is to look at the timing of my use of the webpages that day. The History tool in Library has a number of columns including Added and Last Modified. Both of these are blank in the listing. I can see no other place where a date might be requested or recorded. Sometime last Monday I did the relevant Google search- but when exactly? Was it before or after 16:16? Is it possible to find out in Firefox?

I've tried googling around and haven't found any solutions although I've seen this question asked multiple times.

When I start typing words into my Firefox address bar I usually see some suggestions. I'd like to delete *specific* suggestions from there. When I'm sharing my screen I don't need my business contacts seeing certain embarrassing search terms. How do I do this?

To be clear, I don't want to turn off *all* suggestions. I don't want to delete my history. I don't want any of that. I just want to delete specific ones. In Chrome when this happens I simply hover over the specific suggestion and click X. It baffles me why Firefox didn't make it that simple as well.
