I look forward to helping in any way possible . But I'm on strike, my union rep told me to wait and do absolutely nothing until my back pay was caught up. It's not a cop-out I promise. It's just the best thing for me because I've started not liking anything anymore. I'm getting the opportunity that Is our biggest dream or mine anyway. I'm starting over with a clean slate from God and myself to go and see what he gave us for free no strings attached. I look forward to meeting with all of you but it's just not going to happen on this end until till then. Thank You. RAY GRANTHAM

The problem I encounter has happened since I begin to use Firefox on Windows 11. The same problem happened to my Macbook as well, but a workaround is available. While with Windows 11, I can't find the solution anywhere on the web. Whenever I type on the browser, if I write a non-character notation right behind the word (like "this,"), the word would usually auto delete itself or sometimes, the word clone itself out (e.g, wordword, thisthi, etc.) or it deletes a small section of words right behind that non-char. I don't have insert turning on. I am quite uncertain whether you can reproduce this error on your laptop (for me, I have been through 2 windows 11 laptop and this error still persist). This error seems to only occurs for Vietnamese (Telex and VNI) default keyboard from Microsoft, Russian and English work fine. I suspect that it is caused by Microsoft Vietnamese, but I have unchecked all kind of spelling checking on settings. So should I use a third-party Vietnamese language typing for this situation or does it caused by something else?

I am trying to fix Firefox performance issues. I recently changed to Firefox to escape forced ads on chrome and the lost support for the Ublock origin. But I am having difficulty performing tasks and pages That I used to be able to do on Chrome with no difficulty.

When I open multiple tabs at once the tabs freeze up when trying to load and already opened tabs freeze and anything streaming also freeze. It takes tons of time to load multiple tabs and even sometimes single tabs depending on the website. This never happened with Chrome and I understand Firefox is not as refined as Chrome and is far younger than Chrome is but I feel like it shouldn't be this bad. Is there any settings maybe or maybe settings/preferences in the config area area that might help with faster performance and increased multitasking ability in the Firefox browser?

I have tried

1. Updating Firefox - I am running the most up to date version 2. Updating Graphics Drivers- I am running the most up to date drivers(Updated yesterday 11/17/2024 3. Deleting Cache/History/Logs 4. removed or disables unneeded extensions that I don't use every day and only activate when I need them.

None of this has worked to increase performance.

P.S. I would also like to fix the problem where firefox is using too much RAM if possible.

Can anyone help me?

I am having a continuing problem using fire fox to access websites. I go to a site to use one of their tools and have issues using or logging in to their site. I will go to a site where an accept cookies banner should pop up to continue and nothing pops up so I can't continue. I have tried the disable Enhanced Protection with no change in results. If I use Duck Duck Go, or Edge everything works. Firefox is my default browser, but it appears that you have made a change that is now impacting my ability to use websites. Sometimes things work if I go into Troubleshooting mode, but I can't determine where the problem is. I use Norton as my anti-virus and internet security and have turned it off as part of my troubleshooting but that does not help.

Please provide guidance.

Thank you.

There's one specific field I fill in very often and for some reason Firefox is really keen on suggesting me two searches that I looked up more than a couple months ago, on a totally different site. I can't even remove these suggestions or add new ones. When I used Vivaldi, it'd learn what I insert (even if it'd end up suggesting tens and tens of options), while Firefox doesn't learn at all.

For sake of an example, let's say that the word I use every day in this field is XYZ. Not even once was it suggested to me, I've only ever gotten the two in the screenshot below instead. And I can't remove them using the Delete key as some other article suggested.

Speaking of which, I just noticed the same thing happen to the subject line in this form 🙃

Hello, I'm having an issue with how Firefox is displaying images on some of our product pages. The image appears to be zoomed in which cuts off the side of the product image. The exact same product page displays completely fine when using Safari and Chrome. I cannot figure out the issue. Please see attached images.

I have tried:

modifying the about:config page prefs:

   browser.enable_automatic_image_resizing
   browser.enable_click_image_resizing 

I have also tried resetting the zoom features (Command/Conrl +/-/0).

I have also tried reinstalling firefox and running the browser without any extensions.

None of these worked. Any suggestions?

Multi-Account Tab is on longer loading. I uninstalled it, shutdown my computer, and restarted it, reloaded it back on. Unfortunately, it's still not working. I do have Tab Stash on my computer as well, and it not working either. I guess the two problems are related, but I thought I would start with Multi-Account because I didn't want to lose all my bookmarks.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how it fit this?

Thanks,

Local server won't load

I run a Synology DSM server on my local network. The website page to load locally inside my LAN is along the lines of 127.0.0.1:1001.

MacOSX 15.0.1 FireFox(FF) 132.0 (aarch64)

Previously accessing the DSM via the local IP address worked fine with no problems. Now, following one of the last couple of FF updates, I get an "unable to connect" message.

I also have a domain that routes to my local server and I can still access the DSM via the internet http address through FF. So I know that DSM is running fine and I have verified the settings within DSM.

I can load the DSM via the local IP in both Safari and Chrome. Only FF says it's unable to connect. So that shows that my DSM settings are fine and the page is available and loads in Safari and Chrome via the local IP.

I searched the forum and found similar postings, but not quite the same issue as mine. I deleted the cache & cookies/site data. I ensured the Proxy mode in FF is set to "No Proxy". I do not have any extensions running or themes.

I am at a complete loss at what setting in FF I need to change to restore this functionality.

Thanks, Matt

I've been using Firefox and Gmail on my PC and android phone for years. Today I can't log into my gmail account on my PC and instead it redirects to google support and goes on about clearing cache etc etc. I have cleared the cache but no different. I have restarted my pc and no different. PC is Windows 10.

I can log in to gmail using Google Chrome so I can't see that it is a Google problem. I can also log in ok on my Android phone.

Is this a Firefox issue?

Opening again just goes to a reduced size page.

I have backed up my profile, uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled and brought my profile back in.

Still the same problem.

I think there is a file that controls this that is corrupted.

Hello!

A very important email folder in my Thunderbird just vanished. I didn't touch anything! My email was downloading very slowly and so I closed the entire Thunderbird application. When I re-opened it, the folder was gone. Everything else is there as before - all other folders, my inbox etc.

I have no idea what happened or where the folder went. I can't find anything online that addresses the problem or how to solve it. I'm very much a tech novice. I need a solution that a 5 year old could navigate lol
