I have a google docs problem, only in Firefox! Doesn't happen in Chrome. Problem is I can't get bullets in lists.

      • My configuration

Macbook Air M2, 2022 MacOS Sonoma 14.6.1 Firefox 129.0.2

      • What I have tried

I searched reddit/r/googledocs. Tried everything they suggested.

I cleared Firefox cache and cookies and site settings, then shut down my mac and restarted. problem continues.

      • The problem, in detail
   Select a paragraph
   Go to Format / Bullets and numbering / Bulleted list menu, like I'm supposed to
   Select a menu option (round bullets, arrows, stars, etc)

Every option works except the one I want - bullets! When I select arrows, I get arrows. Yay. When I select stars I get stars. Yay again. But when I select bullets I get little boxes, not bullets.

      • Any suggestions? thanks!

I have already cleared the cache! When I visit the site https://games.usatoday.com/category/puzzles and select the puzzle "Word Roundup", it opens, incorrectly, with this URL: https://games.usatoday.com/games/uclick-word-round-up. The clues do not open. And the correct date is shown and the puzzle can be played without the clues.

But, if I use MS Edge, which I detest, it opens completely with this URL: https://games.usatoday.com/games/uclick-word-round-up.

However, using Firefox, if I go to the developer's site, http://syndication.andrewsmcmeel.com/puzzles/word-roundup, it opens correctly with the correct date BUT WITH A DIFFERENT PUZZLE"!

I have visited URL: https://games.usatoday.com/games/uclick-word-round-up thousands of times without issues.

Does anyone have any thoughts please?

Could you tell me what kind of situation will result in all extensions can't use and how to solve it? Actually I want to use "IE View We", but it not works. I also try to lower my safety level of browser, or added some extensions which recommend by Firefox. It would be great if I can get a feedback in Chinese. Thank you.

Hi, as the title say, I would like to find a way, to trigger the Update the same way by command line as if it would be triggered by the automatic mechanism or the user in "about Firefox".

The reason is, that we´ve recently mass activated automatic updates and I would like to test on 100+ machines without relying on users action.

Thanks

Firefox hangs on Wordpress Login

I am using FF 129.0 64 bit on Linux Mint. AFAIK all is up to the latest version.

When I log into my website admin on wordpress, my site gets redirected for a security check on the server (lightspeed or PC Guard). Once this is complete, the login continues.

Unfortunately for the last 6 weeks, my website redirects with a message, "Verifying that you are not a robot" and it hangs there permanently.

I have tried to get my server to disconnest Lightspeed and PC Guard (but then have NO security protection). Nothing seemed to work, and access was sproradic, but seemed best when FF was completely cleaned, cache, cookies, etc. However, even this did not guarantee a login.

Then I found that all worked perfectly using Chrome. Further, having logged in using Chrome, the FF version would now be unlocked and work perfectly.

So it seems as though FF is not clearing a status/flag/file somewhere and that Chrome clears this, leaving FF working again - for another 24 hours. Then the whole cycle starts again.

Any ideas?

Hello, I had surgery on my thumb and I'm unable to type, except with one finger on my non-operative hand. I have been using dictation software to dictate everything that I need to type/write, then edit the text, then copy/paste it into the browser page or application that I am working with. This is rather time-consuming. I searched for a speech-to-text add on for Firefox, which is my default browser, but I did not find one. Does one exist? And if so, how good is it?

Thank you!
