I used to be able to copy a Zoom recording link into Firefox and then click Shift+Right-click and I would get the option to "Save video as". This no longer gives me this option. I can only "save page as" now.

Please help! Why was this change made? Is there a setting I need to fix?

Thanks, May

What's the best easiest way to translate my website https://invivobio.net/ in different language. We have different countries visitors so I want to check/translate my English content in different languages after publishing them, so it will be understandable for me and visitors to check the language, is that correct?

Can anyone suggest me Mozilla Firefox Extension which translate perfect because I leave Google Chrome due to slow browsing. I am enjoying Mozilla for the long time, so I don't want to move back to Chrome.

Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.

I have been using (VIEWING articles in // saving articles TO my) FIREFOX "POCKET" for more than a year.

I have the pocket ICON on my upper toolbar. But ALL that seems to do is allow me to ADD an open page TO Pocket. I have NO clue how to simply **Go t o POCKET** and VIEW any / all my saved items there.

Good God, WHAT is the secret handshake??! ...in trying to figure this out I see numerous things telling me to SIGN IN to pocket ... IF way back when I began using pocket I MADE a USER NAME / Password for it, that info is long forgotten. I HAVE a FIREFOX account ... was sent therewhile supposedly (according to Firefox" HELP") to 'sign in' to my POCKET account. Only took me to an overall FIREFOX account page - wherein NO LONK there referred AT ALL to POCKET.

I 'SAVE' to my pocket (ICON) almost daily. NEVER need any kind of sign in for this. NOW I want to LOOK AT / READ some of these - BUT FIND NOWAY TO GET THERE. ICON omly SAVES a page.

Ridiculous. HOW do I VIEW / SEE / FIND /READ my saved pocket items?

FF 115.02 Win11

I fill in many repeated responses, such as DOB, zip code, etc. I was using Edge for a while and have forgotten the benefits of FF. Does it remember? Can I edit or delete the ones that are no longer relevant or have changed - age, for instance?

Thank you.

I am using Firefox on a desktop and recently upgraded to 112. I have been trying for the last 6 months to SHORTEN the address bar (NO, I do NOT use Search on Firefox) and cannot find an answer anywhere. I am completely exasperated at all controls Firefox has taken away from users the past few years and this is the final straw before I leave you. PLEASE tell me how to REALLY shorten the god-awful length of the url bar so I can see more addons ON the desktop. Thank you very much.

I want to be able to type accented characters while I'm using a mail tool in Firefox. I searched and found the Office/Word method, but that doesn't work in FF. When I searched this site for "type accent," nothing was found.

I don't need a special language pack, I'm still typing in English. I just want a way to insert an accented character now and then.

Hi there :)

Is it possible to make a link open a new tab with "Find in Page" automatically enabled so that people do not have to ctrl-F or click on "edit" to have the search open (as many people do not even know that option is there !!!) ?

Many thanks

Zoe

I can't figure out how to get Firefox to autofill info like my email addy, name, phone number, etc. What is the secret - so annoying to have to type this stuff over & over again. Makes me miss Chrome.

Thanks for your help!

Don't know what I did but somehow I moved my Open Tab Bar and it is showing under the Navigation Bar. I've tried the Customize Toolbar option but the TAB bars are not an option to move. How can I reposition Open Tabs?

The solution I had posted here - [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1343170] no longer works (Firefox Developer Edition 115.0b9).

Having inspected [https://searchfox.org/mozilla-release.../popup.css] I am still unable to find a solution to remove the box shadow from content area context menus.

Folks ---- 6 April 2023 ---

I posted this request previously, about 4 days ago.

I inadvertantly CHANGED the Font used in the Windows Notepad. Since I'm old enough for such changes to be visually significant, AND since the change makes reading text VERY difficult, I need to change it back to whatever it was before. It's just that I don't know what it WAS before[!]

That's my question: what Font do I specify, and what display Format do I use.

Thankx in advance for any help any of you-all can provide.

I'm using UIAutomation to get the bounding rectagle of an input control. Here's my C++ code.

IUIAutomation* p_iui; ... IUIAutomationElement* p_fcs_element; while(TRUE) {

   Sleep(1000);
   p_iui->GetFocusedElement(&p_fcs_element);
   RECT r;
   p_fcs_element->get_CurrentBoundingRectangle(&r);
   _cprintf("Rect: %d,%d,%d,%d\n", r.left, r.top, r.right, r.bottom);

}

When I put focus on some input text area and move Firefox by drag&drop, the RECT r's data(left,top,right,bottom)does not change, unless I change the focus to another text area and back to the first one. Should I change some Firefox settings to make the location information up-to-date when get_CurrentBoundingRectangle every time?

Ik heb een vraag ?

Als ik mijn Firefox twee x open, en dan weer beide sluit zijn de volgende x als ik mijn Firefox open al me tabbladen in eens weg en moet ik ze opnieuw vast zetten.

Hoe kan ik het zo in stellen ook al open in 100x Firefox en weer sluit dat hij de Tabbladen onthoud en dat ik ze niet steeds opnieuw moet vast maken ?

Met vriendelijke groet

This often happens when I’m using it to play music. It’s also restarted when I’m trying to watch a video, read a web page or, once, when I was part way through setting up login details for a new bank account. I want to apply updates when it’s convenient for me, not when Firefox decides to update. So, how do I prevent my activities being interrupted by Firefox update?

I appreciate that it’s important to keep it up to date but I’m not happy when my activities are interrupted because Firefox decides that it needs to update itself. I suppose one approach would be to apply updates every day when I start Firefox however; I often have a specific task in mind when I start it so I really don’t want the distraction of having to update first.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far. None of these have stopped Firefox restarting itself:

On the Settings page: Select “Check for updates but let you choose to install them” Disable “Use a background service to install updates”

Since the above didn’t stop the Firefox restarts, I tried: Select “Automatically install updates (recommended)” with “When Firefox is not running”

In 'about:config' : Set 'app.update.auto', to FALSE. Set ‘app.update.background.interval’ to 31536000 (i.e. 1 year) Set ‘app.update.interval’ to 31536000 (i.e. 1 year)

       Set 'app.update.auto.migrated' to FALSE.

In Windows Registry Editor, set: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox] "DisableAppUpdate"=dword:00000001

Used Win 10 to disable the “Mozilla Maintenance Service”: FF still restarts when I’m trying to use it. Also renamed the updater exe to: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\updaterXXX.exe": auto update still runs (and installs a new updater.exe).

I found a solution for that issue under Firefox flickering issue with NVIDIA graphics card under Wayland .

This has been the only working solution I found after long research. Could You please integrate that information somewhere.
