I-Firefox Community Forum

For the past few days, I have not been able to use DuckDuckGo as my search engine of choice. Anything typed in for a search results in nothing happening -- there is no processing of the search query. Yet, when I change my search engine to Google, it works normally. I prefer to have the security offered by DuckDuckGo as my search engine and would request that Firefox explore and advise on this recent defect. Thank you.

Suddenly found that there is a good key is not there, and other application habits are not built, currently found four points that will allow me to replace the browser habits. 1. close the web page a key to restore, gone, although there are shortcuts, but inevitably will conflict with other software, without this very difficult 2. Open the bookmarks on the web page, actually from the original web page directly replace the original as long as the point of opening a new web page, a new window will pop up to change, it is because of this just choose Firefox, or else use Google's browser! 3. Complaints about the time of the proposal, very not silky smooth, looking for a long time, click on the input is also a problem, a problem can not be found, a ring set of rings, can not be simple earlier tips from where to send mailboxes! 4. Extensions and themes can not be used, some translations, downloads, screenshots can not be used, your purpose should be to better serve the people, if you do not allow the installation of extensions and plug-ins, you do a good job of their own can also be, but you do not have, or to build a good use of your own plug-ins platform for everyone to download the genuine, I think it will be better for everyone to use!

The above four points, I will send an email every day until March 31, if these have not been updated, or I have not been given if to change the operation to restore these features, I think I will replace a browser that has been used for a long time.

I use the French Search Engine, Quant in place of google. It works well, normally. I have just found the following message;

"We detected unusual activity from your device or network.

Reasons may include:

   Rapid taps or clicks
   JavaScript disabled or not working
   Automated (bot) activity on your network (IP 96.241.216.175)
   Use of developer or inspection tools"

I don't know why this has occurred. No one else uses my laptop. How do I get rid of this message and access Quant?

In the "comments" section of a Yahoo article, a notification will appear that someone has replied to a comment I submitted previously. By clicking on that notification you are supposed to be returned to that article and directly to my comment and the subsequent replies to it. Firefox is returning me to the articles' comment section but not to my specific comment and any added replies.

Microsoft Edge DOES send me back to my specific comment. I cannot find anything in the settings for Firefox that would control this.

When Firefox is on, and I shut down or reboot my PC directly without closing Firefox, it shows a problem. When I click the restore session or start new session' option, it takes some time to load the webpage. Sometimes, it takes 3-4 minutes to establish a connection. After resetting all data from Firefox, it fixes, but then it gets slow from time to time again. However, it is a problem to reset all the data regularly.

My linux system no longer has pulseaudio installed (for reasons unrelated to firefox).

The --enable-alsa option is not rejected by firefox but doesn't work either. The only way to get audio from firefox in this install is through the apulse wrapper:

    apulse firefox ...

Note that chrome browsers have no problem with audio when pulseaudio is not installed.

Is the --enable-alsa in firefox supposed to work?

thanks!

please forgive me for asking again, but I REALLY need my addons to work. Firefox disabled my addons, forcing me to upgrade to a version of firefox that I don't need, since the old one was working just fine. The new version does not seem to appear to have downloaded properly, and neither version is allowing my addons to work or be re-installed. Please explain it to me like I am 5 years old, and help me to get this fixed without losing any of my info that might be stored in the addons.

 Thank you.

Attachment is a screenshot shows task manger shows there are 64 open files open, when I have only 4 windows open. What would causing this?

Over night Firefox closes and close all my open windows. I need the windows remain open.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with me.

During what I assume are high bitrate sections of YouTube videos (e.g. lots of movement, high resolution) YouTube will constantly drop frames.

Video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLuTLF3x9sA

I have tried: • Safe Mode • Installing the Flatpak and testing in that, which also has a fresh profile as I don't use the Flatpak version • Testing different related about:config settings – I can't remember them all now, but I tested every one I found googling that is related to the issue or hardware acceleration.

Hardware acceleration is for sure working. Turning it off makes the video drop to one or two FPS.

Chromium has no problem with the same video. However, you can see from the screenshots that both read the resolution/scaling of my screen differently, and it implies that Firefox is rendering something like 6314 x 3552 while Chromium is rendering at UHD, the resolution of the screen and my video. If I turn off all my Global Scaling, Firefox stops dropping frames (the same info box on YouTube states resolution is UHD), reinforcing my theory about scaling being the issue. Both are confirmed to be using native Wayland.

Hi, I've been receiving the following rejection message as follows: jino.ru rejected your message to the following email addresses:

postmaster@pop3-server-spam.org The address you sent your message to wasn't found at the destination domain. It might be misspelled or it might not exist. Try to fix the problem by doing one or more of the following:

   Send the message again, but before you do, delete and retype the address. If your email program automatically suggests an address to use, don't select it.
   Clear the recipient AutoComplete cache in your email program by following the steps in this article: Status code 5.1.1. Then resend the message, but before you do, be sure to delete and retype the address.
   Contact the recipient by some other means (by phone, for example) to confirm you're using the right address. Ask them if they've set up an email forwarding rule that could be forwarding your message to an incorrect address.

The sender of the email gets those message. I get them also but I'm also getting the message that they send me. It's only doing it with my outlook account. Why is that? I checked it directly on the Outlook website and everything is OK. I can't understand why this is happening.
