Hello everyone

I wonder whether someone could assist me, please

Can FirefoxTranslations be used offline?

Whenever I try to use FirefoxTranslations offline, I get errors like:

"We found an error loading the translation engine"

or, sometimes,

"We could not find the translation engine to download" (even though the relevant language's translation-engine has already been downloaded.

I was under the impression that we could use FirefoxTranslations also offline, but it wouldn't be the first time I happen to be wrong........

In advance, thank you very much for your kind help

Christian

First came the Linux upgrade and with it the enforced new Firefox version. The new Firefox appeared "raw" with none of my previous settings. I am having trouble filling in the Firefox toolbar and recovering things like "most visited" sites listing and many others. There must be a common sense limit to the "happy developers'" ideas.

After using gnome-tweaks to change my system fonts, Firefox has unexpectedly gone silent and no longer shows text in areas like the search bar, tabs, settings, bookmarks, and menus. Rendering websites works just fine, but Firefox itself won't show any text.

I reset my computer and made a new firefox profile, and I only imported my bookmarks, passwords and history. When I try signing into instagram, WITH the correct sign in credentials the page resets without an error message or anything. Signing in is like, impossible and it seems like whenever I try to sign in it refreshes each time. My logins are saved and cleared cookies/ cache but nothing seems to work! Is there anything I can do?

Every once in a while I'll visit a website that, even tho you scroll to what you think is the bottom of the page, when you approach that point, you see the scroll button jump up, and there is further room to scroll.

It happens occasionally on YouTube, but elsewhere as well.

I think I remember somewhere that there is a workaround for this, but first I want to understand if this is by design, perhaps because it's a way of restraining the given site from loading too much content at one time, causing CPU overload, leading to related issues.

I'm extremely frustrated with firefox at this point for not being able to do something very simple which google chrome has. I want to organize my tabs into groups so that the next time my tabs close unexpectedly, I can open all of the ones from that group. I naturally organize them right now into windows and I minimize the window if I'm not using the tabs in that window. However, my new laptop cannot handle having more than 3 windows with 5 tabs open at a time. Last week, I was on a video call and firefox closed all of my windows that I had organized my tabs into. Once I was able to reboot firefox, I could not click "restore session" because I needed to get on the video call. Then the "restore session" button was lost. Many of the tabs I haven't touched for a few weeks, even though they were all organized together, I can't find them in my history together because I wasn't using them all on the same day and some of them were sitting unused but on a digital to do list within that window. I've tried every single tab organizer that is "recommended" on the firefox extensions and they all suck. I don't understand why they automatically hide my tab groups and then I can't open them again, I don't understand why I need to duplicate a tab to mark it in a certain container, it just feels like none of these are simple and none of them will do what I want them to. I want to speak to a real person. I need help. I don't think I can use firefox anymore. Why is there no help people here.

I logged into my bank acct. as usual to check my balance and transactions. All went well until I reached my balance figure. Usually, I click on that balance figure to reveal the previous transactions. This time and all following times, the transactions did NOT appear! Long story/short, I contacted Key Bank's Customer Support only for them to tell me that Key does not support Firefox browsers anymore 'after their security updating!' They suggest switching to mainstream browsers like Google Chrome, Safari, and Microsoft Edge!

I have been a satisfied user of Firefox for years now and don't want to change now! I suspect that because Firefox has good security features, this has become "undesirable" to mainstream business sites because they prefer the mainstream browsers that have (Browser Fingerprinting technology) to track the activities of the users of their sites!!! My question now is: Can Firefox find a way to fix this problem???
