Hi, I cannot get the red squiggle line for spell checking. I get a weak yellow highlight. I have tried all the about:support - changing to string, red etc, closing and restarting. It is not working. Please provide solutions. TX

when i click file, email link a pop up appears and says the file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. I have refreshed firefox this did not work and i have checked that the mailto is set as thunderbird.

Подскажите! Почему не отображаются favicon в закладках? На первом скриншоте favicon есть на втором скриншоте когда я закладку переложил в папку favicon уже исчез!

Help! Why aren't favicons showing up in my bookmarks? The favicon is there in the first screenshot, but when I moved the bookmark to the folder in the second screenshot, the favicon was already gone!

ok so this problem has been bugging me since i switched to firefox, back in chrome, if i type nexus at the search bar, the first suggestion would be my most visited url at nexus which is nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition how to make it so firefox would do the same?

looks like i put in two accounts by mistake and it is taking up space i need to sync my iPhone and i don,t know if i remove one will it affect the other one. Or should i remove them both and start again?

Signed on to same mozilla account on old and new computers. Set each sync for bookmarks, passwords and such. Both computers are shown as signed on, but none of bookmarks appear in firefox on new computer.

When I type in a Google search in Firefox, a red dotted line (not the wavy red line from Firefox's spell check; spell check is disabled) appears. What exactly is this red dotted line? Can I show or hide it in settings? Can I change the setting in about:config? Please help. It's very annoying.

For the past few days hot links in Thunderbird do not open in Firefox. Selecting a link in an email opens or brings to the fore a copy of Firefox with the link address and the wait icon but nothing else happens. I have to close Firefox, copy the link location, Past and Go in Firefox, and then the linked page appears. This behavior happens even in Troubleshoot Mode, so it is not any plugin or customization. I am also running Mozilla VPN. With VPN disabled, hot links in Thunderbird open in Firefox as expected. Now you know where to look.

Also, when I tried to add Troubleshooting Information below, nothing appeared. When I selected to option to be shown what to do, this page was replaced with other which deleted all this text, and now I am entering it all in again, which is severely frustrating. On a page where the user has entered possibly a volume of information, there should not be any sloppy risk of deleting that information due to page mishandling. Open help or assistance information in a separate tab, please. Think ahead about this stuff. You are supposed to be web design experts. Instead your web site spits in my face just when I am asking for help. Think. Plus, I had to get the Troubleshoot information manually so that is not being as automatic as it appears to be , either. Getting help should ideally be a button click, not jumping through hoops.

Slow website loading (30+ seconds) on some websites (the same ones) for over a week now. Have tried MANY things. No issues with MS Edge loading the same sites. Using Windows 10. Data copied. Help please.

Bonjour. Je n'arrive pas à ouvrir Firefox dont je me sert depuis 15 ans. Une fenêtre s'ouvre "Profil Manquant. Le profil Firefox ne peut être chargé. Il est peut être manquant ou inaccessible" Pouvez-vous m'aider. Merci par avance M.A.KRECHIEM [edited email from public community support forum]

I was able to stream news from CTV news site but for some unknown reason I cannot stream it like I used too I cannot figure out why! Something must be wrong with my setup. Please help me fix my problem.

Hello,

Firefox is able to read and reproduce any video or audio streamed on the internet. So, I can record the output from firefox when it plays music from Youtube for example.

But if I want to get the original stream, before it is decoded by Firefox, I couldn't find a solution. Yet it would be enough to make a fork in the Firefox module (which identifies the codec, process the audio stream and sends the result to the audio device) and make available the raw audio data in a place where the user could know the codec and the bitrate and choose the best solution to store this stream. It is not usefull to use a vorbis encoder at 320 kb/s if the input is an mp3 encoded at 128 kb/s !

Is there any solution to do this ? Thanks.

I prefer Firefox over all other browsers I've tried

About a year ago, I think, after an update I couldnt copy a chat into LibreWriter that included the name of the chatter.

Disappointed, I found Brave browser that does copy all within the chat window.

The thing is is Brave is unreliable, and often the chat locks up after an couple hours unless it is regularly checked -I stick with Firefox for my involvement, using Brave to record only because it lags while typing, sometimes so badly a whole sentence can be typed before it appears on screen.

Can you restore the code that allowed the name of the chatter in Rumble chats to be copied like Firefox used to?

It would be much appreciated. Thank you, Biff

I use both Firefox and Google Chrome. My mouse works fine with Chrome but with Firefox there are frequent long delays (60-120 sec.) when moving from one web site to another. The mouse just freezes up and I have to struggle to close Firefox. No problem with the mouse with Chrome, but I prefer Firefox and its features. Any suggestions?

Hi,

I've been using Firefox for years, and suddenly I'm having these strange issues which are forcing me to use another browser while doing schoolwork. They are as follows:

- Discord. When I have Discord open, and then I click another tab, when I go back to Discord the whole screen is black. When I refresh it it's fine, but I have to do this repeatedly each time I go to another tab.

- PDFs. I use Blackboard for my college assignments, and Firefox no longer allows me to open PDFs that teachers post- I just get a blank page when I click on one.

- Black images. Most images show fine, but with some websites (for eg. home depot) the image of the product is black.

I've cleared history, cache, cookies, disabled extensions, and still no dice. Not sure what happened/how to solve this :(

Thanks for any help! zoe

Presently 142.0.1 (64-bit) installed; previous updates/downloads had no problems.

Now, however, going to https://www.firefox.com/en-US/?utm_campaign=SET_DEFAULT_BROWSER and attempt a download results in this (image).

Any solution to this?

Thank you.

Firefox 143.0.3 on Windows 11 24H2. I normally run my browser window full vertical height of the screen (but not maximized). If my PC goes into screen save due to lack of activity, each time I return and it comes out of screen save, the bottom of the Firefox window has risen vertically by about 15-20 pixels, and there is now a gap between the bottom of the FF window and the bottom of the screen. If I go in/out of screen save again, then the gap increases again as the windows shrinks further. The top of the FF window doesn't move, only the bottom.

This problem doesn't happen with the window size of any other app that I use if I size the window the full height of the screen and go in/out of screen save - eg the Thunderbird window remains the full height of the screen.

Any suggestions on a possible cause and how to fix the problem? It isn't just the latest version of FF that has the problem - it was also there with previous versions.
