When I open a website in Firefox, the favicon (site icon) does not appear correctly. Instead, I only see letters or text characters where the favicon should be. This problem occurs on various websites. I've tried clearing the cache, checking the favicon settings in about:config, disabling all extensions, and creating a new Firefox profile, but the problem still persists. In another browser I tried to open the same website, the favicon was displayed normally.

I noticed a yellow flag at the top of my Firefox screen, clicked on it, and found a message that my account was disconnected. In order to restore it, I had to sign into Mozilla, and I was prompted to re-sync my mobile account, as well. Then I saw that I had not received any email during the 5 hours before I did this. What would become of email sent to me while my account was disconnected?

Google says they have a Cherokee/English Mozilla Firefox Translator add-on. I grew up on the Cherokee Nation 60 years ago and sometimes I forget a word. Where can I find this add-on for Firefox? The one answer I got from a volunteer was to visit the "Firefox store. I could not find the store either.

Hello,

I have all the the telemetry collection options disabled in "about:preferences#privacy". However, I've observed that my browser is still connecting to "incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org".

Any idea what this is about? Is there another setting somewhere I need to disable, to prevent it? Or is data being sent despite my explicit request?

Thank you!

This morning, I was presented with an opportunity to update Firefox. As always, I chose "Yes". Ever since, no matter what I do, I am completely unable to connect to a webpage. I only get an error message stating that the webpage I'm trying to connect to has crashed. I am offered the choice of reloading only that particular webpage or all crashed tabs. NEITHER option works. It's just a loop that comes back to the same error message. I've used Firefox exclusively for well over a decade. I maintain subscriptions to Relay Premium and Pocket Premium. I have NEVER run into a problem with a Firefox update. They generally only take 30 seconds or so and very rarely involve a download. I spend a majority of my workday online. PLEASE help me get back to the version of Firefox that I had prior to this newest update, along with my hundreds of bookmarks, my Extensions, my Relay Premium and Pocket Premium subscriptions. You can reach me at tjkenning@att.net. I am running the 64 GB version of Windows 11 Home (with Automatic Updates). Thank you.

Hi all,

with FF 130 on Windows 10, I'm encountering an issue that pops up spuriuosly during the last years. After playing video/audio content, the browser fails to release the audio streaming device, thus preventing the computer to go into sleep mode.

When I restart FF, the stream is released This has happened for other users on previous versions, but seems to have been fixed in more recent releases. But now the issue is back - at least for me.

Any hints or workarounds?

My home page on Firefox is https://www.google.com/ which brings up a Google search box I enter something to search and invariably I get the following message (not always, but most of the time):

"Firefox Can’t Open This Page To protect your security, www.google.com will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window."

I am advised that: "Website will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it"

I click "Learn more" and find: "To visit a site that displays this error message, you can right-click the link and select Open Link in New Tab or Open Link in New Window"

What is "the link" I am supposed to right-click?

All I see is the "Learn More" link, which takes me to the aforementioned statement, whether I right-click it or left-click it..

Then I give up on Firefox and switch to the Google Chrome browser. I prefer to use Firefox, but if this is what happens each time, I will switch to Google Chrome as my default browser. Goodbye Firefox

Unfortunately I had to visit the site of Telus.com and use tech support. Now, there is always a Telus cookie in my Firefox settings. If I clear it, and block in PERMISSIONS, it still reappears as soon as I visit any web page. I always use private browsing. Right now I'm using Vivaldi until I get the thing resolved. Is there any way to kill the thing? Thanks for any assistance.

I'll try placing this question here in hopes that someone knowledgeable may have a solution

What in the addon translator program could or would cause an upset in the webpage layout when the translator is active?

One forum that I am a member of which is not English requires my using a translator, up until now I've not made the use of an outside translator in that forum. Now that I'm using Firefox & there is an internal translator supplied I'm making use of it & said translator is reconfiguring the website layout. Disable the translator & the webapge returns to its normal width display, apply the translator & the webpage items are being *squeezed* from the right to left. Any ideas as to what would cause this?
