Got a number of devices with Firefox installed, all of them Firefox Sync'ed. Most of them on rapid release version cycle and a couple of them on ESR.

When https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/website-translation it provided a clean way to browse entire pages automatically translated. Problem is that the translate option is not there.

I'm at work right now on ESR 115.15.0 / Windows 10 64-bit and no translate icon appears on the address bar when checking German or French or Japanese sites (for example). Comparing my own browser settings to another, non-ESR FF it seems that on ESR something is missing. There is only a reference "Firefox Translations" and a "Exceptions" button to it. Check the attached image.

Can't tell if this is a bug or a feature (ie ESR lacks Firefox translate).

When I open up the Add-ons Manager it shows Window Titler is turned on. But Ctrl-Alt-T no longer works, there is no button showing for it, and it seems to be gone. A button for it does not appear in Customize Toolbar. It is the single most important reason I stay with Firefox. How do I get it to work again? Thoughts appreciated.

The same website Chrome is correctly operating.

Tried to unblock all cookies but did not help. anyone can suggest some workaround do this situation?

I just noticed that when I start writing in the Firefox URL bar there is a blinking straight bar that remains at the start. And if I click of somewhere else and then start writing again, the bar remains blinking at the start of the new text. I also don't have the straight line you get when moving left or right in the text using the arrow keys.

I couldn't capture the bar with a screen shot so I have edited the images to where the bar is when beginning typing, and then after I have clicked of the text bar and then entered it again and typed some more.

Thanks for any help I can get.

I have 6 websites that I currently cannot sign into using Firefox. Support tells me to use those two crap browsers Chrome and Edge. I end up using Edge because it is embedded in my computer and I cannot delete. I will not install Chrome and have put on Avast Secure Browser and CClean browser. Both are just Chrome with a new gooey. My Father is also having the same trouble. Most of the sites are for Utilities and rewards programs. Avast is also blocked. Are you aware and working on getting this fixed?

Hi,\

Over the past week or so, my homepage refreshes intermittently and all of the time when I close tab. When I am on my homepage to read (MSN), I typically use the right click command to open the links in a new tab so I can keep the article in the homepage there. Every time I close the news tabs, the homepage refreshes. If I am just sitting on the homepage for few minutes, it auto-refreshes.

This does not happen on Edge or Chromium and I have been back to Firefox because I want more control over not having AI functions and Chromium still has serious limitations. But this is annoying. I have tried changing as many of the relevant settings in about:config that I could find to no avail. My PC an All-in-One 6 core Ryzen 7 with 16GB of RAM, which is far more than enough to handle the memory hog Firefox is (sometimes it eats nearly 2 gigs).

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Tom

This topic appears to show up a few times, but none of the solutions work for me (e.g. they were using A/V or "it just worked"). The error I get is also different.

This a pretty fresh install (migrating from Chrome so I'm currently re-logging into all my sites to ensure I can access everything I need.. and going through MFA hell heheheheh).

Everything is mostly fine, except for Synchrony Bank.

I go to login at https://auth.synchronybank.com/account/login, enter _any_ username or password (doesn't matter if I enter the right details or the wrong ones), and as soon as I click "sign in" I get an error page

Looking in developer console, the error reason given is NS_ERROR_NET_INTERRUPT while trying to POST to auth.synchronybank.com. Every so often I get PR_IO_TIMEOUT_ERROR but over 90% of the time it's NET_INTERRUPT.

This occurs also in private browsing and also in safe mode. I even created a new profile and tested it from there; same issue.

I've tried lots of things related to this (e.g. setting network.http.http3.enable to false), added the domain to the advanced tracking exception list, and I'm running out of ideas.

I can see traffic flowing to akamai but (it being https) I can't see what's inside the traffic. Could akamai be objecting to something in the content?

FWIW, I can login with Chrome on the same machine.

I've found a solution to the blurriness of the emojis, I've put it in the end of this post, in bold ⤵⤵⤵

My problem is that emojis look bad on Firefox compared to Edge_128.0.2739.79. Two screenshots are attached of bing.com & a Google Doc (left half of both pictures is Edge, other half Firefox). The problem persists on all the sites to a varying degree.

Steps to replicate: A] Open 2 sites in latest Edge & Firefox on Windows 11 (the examples that I've used in the screenshots): https://www.bing.com/ and an Empty Google Doc. B] In the search field of bing and in a new line in an empty Google Doc, copy the following example emojis (That were inserted using the 'Windows_Key+V' which summons the emoji Keyboard of Windows): 🏀🚕 C] Compare the quality of the emojis rendering between the browsers when unzoomed and when zooming.

I've tried in FF (to no avail): A] Disable hardware acceleration in settings (w/ FF restart). B] Setting "gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.rendering_mode" from -5 to 5 (w/ 10+ FF restarts). C] Setting "gfx.webrender.quality.force-subpixel-aa-where-possible" to true (w/ FF restart). D] Using both emoji sets in the "Segoe UI Emoji" & "Twemoji Mozilla" fonts in the "font.name-list.emoji" setting, both sets gave me blurry results (w/ FF restarts). D] Disabling all add-ons (w/ FF restart). E] Setting new Firefox separate clean install. F*] In Windows setting the scaling factor to 100% in Windows->System->Display->Scaling_Factor (w/ FF & Windows restart).

How can the blurriness of the emojis be fixed so to make them crystal sharp like in Edge?

Solution: A} Download Noto-Color-Emoji font from https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Color+Emoji Ensure that your are getting the full resolution font (which came at ~23MB as of 2024.09.23) B} Unpack the font and install according to the on screen instructions. C} In FF in "about:config" find the "font.name-list.emoji" setting and rewrite its value field to "Noto Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Twemoji Mozilla" (w/o the quotations marks). D} I've attached a screenshot w/ the result, It is marked w/ the red writing of font.name-list.emoji on it.

I have had a series fo problems over the last 2 months. All different, but on closer inspection, all connected to recaptcha and login security.

I have not been able to log into my wordpress admin website for 2 months. It just hangs with"Verifying you are not a robot". I can login using Chrome.

Now I have just taken out insurance for my car and have set up a login for my insurance portal - and can't login because "Recaptcha cannot determine that you are a human".

I have searched and found that there was a bug with recaptcha and firefox, but that this was fixed. In any case, this fix did not work for me.

Can anyone please tell me what I should do so that I can login to recaptcha sites?
