For example, the word thema, is exclusively capitalized in German, and it shows as error indeed when lowercase, but the capitalized one is not offered in the options. Why is that and how to fix it?

Also, is there a way to autocorrect capitalization for example?

The other day I attempted to use a script in the Greasemonkey extension, which would not work for me. I deleted the extension in the end, but in the process of trying to get it to work, I disabled all other extensions for a time to test what the problem might be.

Ever since then my profile seems to be corrupted in some way. I have refreshed Firefox, as well as made a new profile to test where the error must be. As soon as multi-account containers is reinstalled, the problem returns. This includes the fact that yesterday, for unrelated reasons, I decided to install Linux Mint for my OS and stop using Windows - as soon as I signed in my Firefox account and the profile synced in the new OS, the error returned. (The attempt at refreshing Firefox was done after installing Mint; the test profile was done on Windows.)

This is the behavior I'm seeing:

- I cannot drag a tab that's logged into a different container into a tab group with tabs that are not signed into any container. This includes tabs logged in on the Facebook container. - In fact, I cannot drag any tab that is logged into a container anywhere - they insist on being all the way to the right in the list of tabs. - If a tab logged into a container is all the way to the right in any given window, the button to open a new tab will automatically open the tab in that container instead of opening in no container, which is my preference.

I use the multi-account container extension extensively and would like to see this fixed. If anyone has any idea of what could be happening here I'd appreciate the help!

After 11 year I suddenly can't access my Wordpress blog on Firefox. I have to use Chrome to access it - with no problems. I have been on Ubuntu Elementary for years years and have never had difficulty accessing my blog. I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox twice, I have emptied my entire cache and cookies. I also tried to empty my DNS on Ubuntu Elementary but my version doesn't have DNS. The problem started 24 hours ago.

Srry I don't see the button to delete the question, because I didn't even differentially diagnose whether it was even Firefox or a webcam program that was running

Playing a video in a Firefox tab prevents my desktop from hibernating, even when the video is paused.

I'm guessing this is an advanced settings in about:config somewhere, possibly.

I multitask a lot so I was partway through a video on utube and paused it, & then my computer was still awake in the morning.

The simple solution : don't do that then; or, it's just a little bit of electricy, don't even worry about it.

I looked around for solutions in Debian or wherever & they talk about VLC playing, but this was a Firefox tab.

I noticed earlier this week that one of my extensions is still having a major bug, despite said bug being patched a month ago and the update being approved already. The extension was set to auto update, so I tried disabling it and checking for updates manually. Firefox said an update was available, so I hit update and nothing happened. Even after waiting 10 minutes, refreshing `about:addons` and even restarting firefox, the update was not installed. I can't check dev tools for information on what happened either since they are handled by the firefox app itself instead of the `about:addons` page. So I turned off auto update for all extensions to see if it was just that one that was having an issue, but none of my extensions have been updating. 11 updates available, none able to install. The only way I could get an extension to be up to date was by completely reinstalling it, which removes all extension data and thus is not an option.

I'm on Linux and have been using Firefox since I switched over. The first thing I disabled was restoring tabs because I never need it/find it annoying. I noticed that every time I would restart my computer with Firefox open it would restore the session. I understand that this happens because Firefox sees it as a crash so I changed the following settings:

• browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash from `true` to `false`
• browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo from `5` to `0`
• browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo from `25` to `0`
• browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes from `1` to `0`

I changed those according to this guide: https://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore#Completely_disabling_session_store

Unfortunately any time I restart my computer with Firefox open it resumes my session. Is there any other way to turn this off? Theres no way all of these settings do nothing.

I also deleted the contents of sessionstore-backups in the profile folder but it just recreates the files after a while.

My goal is to be able to restart and shutdown with Firefox open and not have to worry about it restoring tabs.

Hello Mozilla. Recently my wife and I have had a new experience with our bookmarks. When we display a list of bookmarks, part of the list runs off the page, so, we cannot see the complete list.

In the past, when we would request this list, if it was too long to display downward, it would then automatically shift upward, so that the entire list could be seen.

Has this feature been dropped or altered in anyway? Is there anything we can do to regain the feature?

We are using Ubuntu 24.04

Thanks. Curt

I've just updated my Linux Mint to 22.1 and Firefox to 142 on two computers. Both show the same behaviour. On websites of the Stackexchage family (Stackoverflow, Superuser, Crossvalidated, Academia...) the comment function seems to not work anymore. I am not offered a button to comment, and clicking buttons to see more comments that are already there don't show the comments but rather send me to the top of the page. I can still answer. The problem seems to be with Firefox 142 as it worked well before the update, and it still works well with Firefox 142 on Mac and other browsers on Linux.

This looks like a minor bug, not sure whether it is specific to Stackexchange or other websites are affected, too. Is there any help? If not, where can I file a bug report?

I am using Tor browser, which is based on Firefox. The 'About' tab says this: 14.5.6 (based on Mozilla Firefox 128.14.0esr)

When I sign in, it tells me that: "Some of Tor Browser's security features may offer less protection on your current operating system."

And it directs me to the following page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/linux-security-warning?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

-- which directs me to set up a file called 'firefox-local' with specific contents. I have created this file; and pasted the recommended contents into it, and saved it.

I am then directed to issue the following command: sudo systemctl restart apparmor.service

-- which I have done. But that returns the following error: Job for apparmor.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apparmor.service" and "journalctl -xeu apparmor.service" for details.

systemctl status apparmor.service gives the following output: × apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles

I don't know how to make heads or tails of this. Apparently the profile failed to load. According to the file documentation, it expects firefox to be located in '/home/<USER>/bin/firefox/' but I am running a version through Snap. and I think it is installed in '/snap/firefox/6700/usr/lib/firefox/firefox'

Is that the trouble; and how do I fix it? Grateful for any assistance; sorry for the data dump.

The release notes for 142.0 say:

  Keep an active tab visible in a collapsed tab group
  Focus on just one tab in a group without the clutter. Your active tab stays in view, keeping
  things tidy even with the group collapsed.

But it does not define what an "active tab" is. I usually have a group which never collapses, it always has one or more tabs visible no matter what I do. Is this a bug? Or is there some way to stop tabs from being 'active'?

Enabling HDR (gfx.wayland.hdr) on Linux CachyOS causes random lines to appear on the screen, both vertically and horizontally seemingly at random. Perhaps important to note that the OS originally didn't recognize my laptop display's HDR capability so I had to "force" it on with KWIN_FORCE_ASSUME_HDR_SUPPORT=1, but it still can't actually read the display's specs from EDID. Disabling gfx.wayland.hdr fixes the issue but I do really like HDR so I think I'm willing to live with it for now.

Mudei de computador e ao entrar com a chave de recuperação de conta, é informado de que ela está inválida. Ao tentar alterar minha senha sem a chave é informado erro, que não é possível realizar a operação. Quando tento alterar minha chave de recuperação , só tem opção de fazer a alteração entrando na minha conta, sendo que estou tentando alterar por não ter a chave de recuperação. Como posso sincromizar novamente ou gerar uma nova chave?
