Spell check doesn't work at all. It doesn't show incorrectly spelled words, and there's nothing in the write click menu in text areas. I have it turned on in settings, and I have a dictionary installed.

when reopening closed tabs it doesn't open last closed tabs, it only opens closed tabs in the window you are using. so if you have closed a window it doesn't reopen like it does on chrome

I can't size the pages to WORK! If I size it down, I can't read the text. It used to fit the page and was readable but no matter what I do, it's impossible to read a web page right. Fonts are crazy!

Most fonts are way too small, that might be Microsoft, I had to go back to Win 10 but that didn't help much at all. Pages are impossible to see right!

It has totally freaked with my web design work.

My games are messed up with sizes.

But most of all text sizes ARE CRAZY!

NOTHING fits together or views right anymore!

In the image the page is 67% - but you can't see the whole page OR adjust it to work. When you do see the whole page, the text is so small, it is unreadable!

I want to sync Firefox on my old laptop with my new laptop, but when I select Sync another device the only option is to sync a phone or tablet. How do I sync my other laptop?

why do you stalk and bother the users? i do not want to update! without warning you alter things i do not want you to alter. you take things out so people have to use risky 3rd party addons.

I'm signed in on desktop and phone (they are synced), but I forgot my password, and I don't have a recovery key. I want to reset the password to avoid losing data, just to prevent. If I back up my desktop profile, then reset my password, will this backup be enough to recover all my data? Or is there something that it's stored just online/on cloud by firefox that won't be recovered?

I reset my windows and downloaded firefox but all my data synced to my previous firefox on this same account has been lost. Please help me recover that synced data including bookmarks, logins, passwords, etc.

When my system crashes, the session that is restored is from some time back. I was wondering when Firefox stores its session information and is there any way to force an update? How can I insure that the new session is saved?

Hello

When i try to watch a twitch stream i can't do that, it shows me this error Your browser encountered an error while decoding the video. (Error #3000). I'm in firefox, Version 105.0.1(64 bit) I tried delete data and cookies,restarting firefox and pc,starting firefox in troubleshootmode

Hello,

In a previous version of firefox, I could right click within a text area for example, which would allow me to check my spelling. Since upgrading (which was actually from a higher Beta version, to the latest current stable - a new profile was created), I had not had this option. As you can appreciate, it's a very handy tool to have, so I have been attempting to get this function back today.

Within my language section, initially there was only 'English [GB]', which was as it should be. I had 'check spelling as I type' checked also. This did not automatically check as I typed. It did not check at all, not could i right-click to check spelling.

I have since added 'English [US]' to see if this would then allow me to remove and reinstate 'English [GB]', but it did not. I then added a third option which was 'English [CA]'. The config allows me to remove only 'English [CA]', which when pressed removes it from the list, but by pressing the 'set alternatives' button again, you can see that it has returned.

I have since managed to get firefox to check spelling in English [GB] by adding 'British English Dictionary (GB)' (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/british-english-dictionary-gb/), but now I am also stuck with English US and English CA. EN-US does not allow it to be removed whatsoever, even though it was only there after I manually added it and EN-CA allows me to remove, but returns. No option to apply and restart firefox appears (I've seen this appear in another user youtube video on the subject). Closing and opening makes no difference.

How can I removed English US and English CA please?

6 images attached, in sequence order. Between images 3 and 5 you can see CA being removed and returning (and also no option to remove US). The last image is what I am now trying to get rid of.

Besides old content from 2017 where is the most current listing of Tabs below the URL and below the Multi Bookmarks lines. I have the code inserted in the CSS code after the code for the Multi bookmarks section. So, why is the Tabs showing up at the bottom of the screen. Can someone point me to the right version of tabs? I'm on 105.0.2 10-8-22

I am using a Windows computer. Is there a way to change the two finger swipe to go back (or forward) a webpage to a "THREE" finger swipe? Two finger swipes interfere with other things that I may be trying to do on a webpage. I often find myself scrolling through tables (using two finger scrolling) and then if I scroll too far in one direction it goes BACK to the last webpage I was on. This is super frustrating!

I know how to disable the two finger swipe using about:config. However, if it can be changed to a 3 finger swipe instead, that would be a huge help.

The issue I am having is that I wiped my old iPhone before disabling two factor authentication. I am not able to login because Firefox wants a code from my old device.

Please advise.

"If you have two-factor authentication (2FA) setup on your account and need to migrate to a new device or phone, here are steps you can take to ensure that you don’t get locked out of your account. Step one: Disable two-step authentication"

   "Go to https://accounts.firefox.com/settings (you may need to log in).
   Enter the authentication code from your authentication application.
   After login, under Security next to the Two-step authentication click Disable.
   Click Disable on the confirmation".

For years, never a problem. Suddenly, the Roboform lower toolbox, while being checked in the latest Firefox options, will not actually show up. The Roboform help suggestions are numerous but haven't helped at all. Something somewhere has been changed and it's most unfortunate but I cannot continue with Firefox. Chrome does load the lower toolbar with no problems ever. I dislike switching but unless help comes soon, I will be forced to. I am on Firefox all day every day and am slowly moving up through coding systems.
