Firefox Community Forum

I just installed the browser and enabled Russian localization. Then I opened a page in English. A notification appeared with a suggestion to translate the page into another language. In the translator options, there is an option to select the language from which the translation will be made. There is Russian language there, but I chose English, it’s logical. And then comes the choice of the language into which the translation will be carried out, but there is no Russian language there. Why? How can I translate the page into Russian?

The only two new tab choices in Settings are only "Firefox Home (default)" and "Blank page". Is there a way to change this?

My last laptop let me use www.google.com as the home page in both new windows and new tabs, but on this new thinkpad running Firefox 141 I can only choose that for new windows and not for new tabs.

Thanks!

I am a magazine editor right on deadline and as my Firefox inisted it must be updated I endeavoured to do so and now it will nor allow me to open up and forward any pdfs.Please help.

希望火狐浏览器可以像edge和chrome一样让网站自动读取PC系统的剪贴板，例如同一个网站gmgn.ai 当我复制一个加密货币ca时，edge中打开的gmgn会自动显示该代币，而火狐浏览器则需要我手动粘贴，非常不方便，请改进

I accidentally refreshed Firefox when I was having problems and didn't realize Refresh meant wiping everything clean. I found another thread about this, but it's 8 years old and things have changed. How do I use the "Old Firefox" folder on my desktop to restore all my bookmarks, history, etc.?

We had a power cut yesterday during wild weather. When I restarted my iMac and opened Firefox I found that all my bookmarks had disappeared. I've done some investigating online for fix it steps but nothing is appropriate. Firefox is only listing one Profile for me.

I have had firefox work on my phone and computer for years. This laptop precedes my computer as well. Every time I open firefox the sync is disconnected and I am forced to log into firefox again. Additionally, it does not remember any of my saved passwords and asks me to "save password?" every single time. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, I have updated it, have done several reboots to my laptop but nothing seems to help.

Firefox on my mac has been acting buggy lately. The last time I quit and reopened it, all of my windows and tabs were gone. there is no restore previous session available and the recently closed tabs and windows options are grayed out. How can I restore?

I had to rebuild my Windows 11 this week. Since installing Firefox, streaming videos in Youtube are distorted with significant tiling during the first few seconds. The video has to be rewound manually to see the beginning unhindered, sometimes rewound several times because the tiling still happens, albeit less so with each rewind. I had to rebuild the Windows 11 because some mysterious problem, possibly from a Windows update a couple of months ago, caused a growling hardware contention noise during video or video games that would cycle through several harmonic levels and sometimes move across the stereo plane. Just before the rebuild it became continuous and untennable. The rebuild did not get rid of that problem completely, but there have only been a couple of tiny hardware contention noises since then. This tiling of Youtube video is brand new. The system is pretty much the same now as it was before the rebuild. I still have the old OS on another internal drive so it would be possible to compare files. I just want to know why all of a sudden Firefox is showing this momentary tiling in Youtube. I tried Chrome and there was no titling. Thanks for your time.

I would like to disable automatic session restore completely. When I restart my PC, crashes or anything like that, I do not want Firefox to restore my previously opened tabs or windows. When I open firefox after a system reboot / crash, I want to only open my default home page. Only if I manually click History > Restore Previous Session should firefox ever restore my session, otherwise never restore my sessions.

I tried unchecking Settings > Startup > Open previous windows and tabs, and also tried following this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1182594

My sessions still restores after my computer restarts or crashes.

Why do I want this? When I reboot my computer, I want a clean slate to start from scratch, not the dozens of pages (and other software) I had open from my previous session.

I am running linux mint btw.

I have installed Video Downloadhelper on my Firefox toolbar. I have also downloaded another app which assists VDh on my pc. Could someone kindly give me a step-by-step guide as to what I have to do to save a YouTube video to my pc and tell me where the saved video will be found.

since I put my computer on windows 11, I cannot upload photos on my blog operated by wordpress with firefox. But it works perfectly well if I navigate with edge. Can you tell me why? I would prefer to continue to navigate with firefox but it does not work for loading my photos even if I compress them. I never had difficulties with windows 10 ...
