Hello!

For a while now I've had an issue browsing with Google using Firefox. As stated in the subject line, Google would cut off parts of my search if certain symbols are used within it.

For example: "1+1" becomes "1 1" "R&B" becomes "R" "#100" sends me back to google main page "number #100" becomes "number"

There might be other symbols that cause issues, but these are the three I keep running into. I tested another browser and this issue doesn't happen in it, meaning it must be an issue with Firefox.

I have already tried clearing cookies and cache, and it did not resolve the problem.

I would appreciate help with this!

No matter what I do, I cannot find my screenshots. My downloads are set to save on the Desktop (using a Mac, so this is Firefox for iOS).

PNG and JPEG are set to "Save File"

I'd attach a screenshot of my settings, but wouldn't be able to find it if I took it. ;)

I have no idea where screenshots are going. Any ideas?

Thank you

When seeing contents on a webpage that may have lasting significance for me, I tend to save it (one way or another), at least for some time.

Earlier, I just used the browser's 'save page' function. This has the little inconvenience that also the folder (containing the HTML elements) comes along, but that can be managed - like creating a separate folder for it, then making a shortcut.

Later, I found software like Fireshot, which is quite practical, but also comes with certain limitations of its own. Ultimately I reverted to saving pages.

Now here's the question: Does the save-page function really save the entire page I'm on? Concretely, I'm thinking of webpages that contain a scrolling chat box. My tests so far seem to indicate that yes, also the entire contents of these will be saved, but I still have some doubts.

Would a knowledgeable user be in a position to remove them with some good arguments, or is there maybe a better way to do it - like those offered after googling for 'browser: take screenshot of contents of scrolling chatbox' (and whose execution was beyond my reach)?

С ноября месяца 2024 не загружается игра "Рыцари и принцессы". Меня несколько месяцев заставили ждать решения проблемы и написали сегодня, что мне нужно решать проблему загрузки их продукта с браузером mozilla, при этом ссылаясь на старую ос виндос 7 и что в чем то браузер виноват. Попытки объяснить программистам продукта что это у них проблемы с корректным взаимодействием с браузером и не я должна это решать ни к чесу не приводят. Меня отправляют решать проблему загрузки их продукта в службу поддержки браузера.. Страница загрузки https://vk.com/app4019000_26034467 но загрузки не происходит. Помогите пожалуйста решить проблем. Я уже не знаю как это решать. Все остальные приложения и программы работают без проблем.

I have noticed some minor changes in Google Maps. Unfortunately, they have affected the support of Maps in Firefox (135.0): maps are displayed without any names (towns, streets, objects, etc.). Since this bug is not present in the support of Maps in Edge, I think that Firefox requires a correction. When can we expect a fix?
