I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Today I get annoying alert to support Black Lives Matter. I have used and supported FireFox for a long time, but if you are supporting terrorist Black Lives Matter, that ends right now.

I realize that the firefox browser has setting to prevent others from tracking your online activities, but what about if Firefox tracks you? What is prompting this question is that firefox pocket is offering up articles that seem to be tracking my facebook posts to an uncanny degree ( I am not signed into pocket - the articles are offered on my browser home page. I didn't even have a firefox account - opened one just now to post this query) Thanks, community, for your help

Twitterda beğeni yapıyorum takip ediyorum ama sayfayı yenilediğimde ne beğeni yapmış oluyorum ne de takip etmiş oluyorum bu sorunu nasıl çözebilirim? Tüm eklentileri kapatıp güvenli kipte çalıştırdım düzelmedi geçmişi ve önbellek dosyalarını sildim düzelmedi

I thought I had managed this once but cannot find it. maybe on a previous version of Firefox? This allows databasing material with minimal discontinuity in workflow. I currently have about 1335 windows open and it would be economical to be able to save them easily to search as a curated database.

For quite some time now I've had keyword.enabled set to false in my about:config because I don't like having the address bar try to autocomplete or turn things into search, when I do a ctrl-l.

I do like that I am still able to use ctrl-k to do a search when I need to. This would place a ? at the start of the field and whatever I type gets sent to search.

In a recent upgrade, ctrl-k still places the ? at the start of the address bar but doesn't send things to search. Instead, it now behaves as if I did a ctrl-l and typed in a bad URL.

I'm on Firefox 80 (on Fedora 32) but I can't be exactly sure which upgrade brought this change in behavior.

Is there a way to get the old behavior back? ctrl-l to enter a URL, ctrl-k to search.

Hi, I like Firefox and I'd be happy if I could avoid opening other browsers, but this issue is forcing me to also use Chrome and Safari.

I have a Japanese keyboard (with input language set to English), where the stand-alone tilde is Option + Shift + n. Besides this causing a problem with the Shift having to be pressed to obtain a tilde, thus not allowing me to have both options, it doesn't work. I'm doing it now... and nothing.

Since someone was having doubts about the tilde on another post, I'll cover that too.

Should I use: 1) the standalone tilde, "˜", which is Option + Shift + n (which would cause trouble with the shortcut anyway)? Or; 2) the actual Spanish tilde which goes above a letter such as in ñ (where nothing appears after I type Option + n, but "ñ" appears after I type the letter to which the tilde must be applied, in this case "n")? Or; 3) the tilde-like wormy hyphen "~"?

I've tried them all, none of them works.

Any idea how to avoid palm-reading from Chrome?

Thanks,

Muvu

I just updated to Firefox 80 (at Mozilla's insistence) and now all my Bookmarks and Bookmark Toolbar are missing. How do I get them back? Or revert back to Firefox 79 where I had them? How do I stop Mozilla's insistent pop-up when there is a new version - such as this destructive version 80? Bill Gray

I can not use Netflix or twitch in the browser anymore since 80 update on both twitch and netflix says browser does not support video playblack. I get a pop from firefox saying install microsoft media feature pack but when I tried it says my version of windows does not need it I am using Windows 10 US. Any idea what it can be will be helpful

Hi all

Recently I started using FireFox as a snap and found it fantastic, however I found that the GNOME Shell extensions web site and extension does not work with the FF as a snap, I found the following reports talking the same problem for the flatpack version:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1633206

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/2689

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621763

But I cant find any report on the snap side despite having exactly the same problem, I guess it has to be something related to how to contain the application.

should I fill a Bug with this same problem, but for the snap? or someone here in the community can confirm me that it's a known issue for both the flatpack and the FireFox snap

Thank you

Outlook.com (webmail version, formerly Windows Live Hotmail, formerly MSN Hotmail) can be used for writing in multiple languages with a Firefox dictionary add-on for spell-check in multiple language. There seems to be a Microsoft issue and/or a Firefox issue. This issue has just recently appeared (reappeared, actually -- every so often this happens). In short, the "change language" function within the body of the e-mail text no longer works on a PC or on a Mac. The language add-ons (dictionaries) no longer work. Gmail and Yahoo Mail do not have this problem. The language dictionaries do work, though, in the subject headline and in the feedback area to Microsoft. You used to be able to right-click and set/change the language you were writing in. This is a recent issue (about a month). Microsoft says to get in contact with Firefox, although it sounds like Microsoft is prohibiting Firefox to allow its dictionary add-ons to function in Outlook.com (webmail).

Hello! When I want to upload my ID card's image on Topchange, I get this error "connection not secure" and "parts of this page aren't secure (such as images)". What should I do to fix this problem?

Hi there

I am reporting, just in case this may be of assistance to others.

Since the last update of Firefox on 28 August 2020 I have been experiencing freezing and a blank screen as well as problems accessing the browser after the crash. I also noticed in my logs shortly after the AMD will experience a crash as well. Is it possible that this update has caused an incompatibility with the latest AMD update?

This is my report for firefox, I have blanked out my computer details in the report.

Thank you for your kind assistance.

Kind regards Ruth

can't find cause of this message: "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported"

is it something that i can fix?

Using Chrome, I can open both of my gmail accounts, but in Firefox, I get "Could not find your account" regardless of where I am trying to sign in (gmail, voice, etc.)

Chrome has been making my PC hang, so that isn't a preferred workaround.

Thanks for any input.

Hello Unfortunately, I have to use a PC at a library sometimes, and leave my 'perfect' PC behind. At the library, we only have Firefox for viewing PDF files. Is there a way to change the background colors on the screen ? Sumatra allows me to do this, but as of yet I have not gotten Sumatra installed at the library. We also have Acrobat, but it doesn't allow color changes either.

Hello I have to use a PC at a library sometimes, and unfortunately we don't have Sumatra (yet). We do have Firefox 70.0, and it opens PDFs but I cannot see with a white background. I've been in Networking nearly 40 years and i will only use a black background. Is there any way for Firefox to use a web-based program so I can run Sumatra within Firefox, without installing Sumatra locally.
