I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I love Firefox and have been using it for years. I hate Google Chrome, but I'm forced to use it once or twice a year. When I use Firefox and go to one of Google's apps, a lot of the text overlaps. I lowered my minimum text to 30% and although it's almost unreadable, I can see that the text still overlaps. This is something I've been living with for a long time. Today I tried the same Google.com pages using Google Chrome and everything looks fine. Why can't Firefox fix the overlapping text? If Google can do it, Firefox should be able to do it after all these years. The available add-ons do not work. Bob Brown

There were changes made to how a search is performed. When searching the cursor moves into the address bar versus the center of the page where initiated. The below suggestion was made to resolve which works in regular view, however, it does not stick in a private window. Is there a solution for private view please?

Suggested solution in normal view does not work in private window

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste handoff and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar preference to switch the value from true to false

Up until 2 weeks ago, all ESPN+ and ESPN3 content played on my Mac. It no longer does. When clicking on the start button the screen goes to black, the title of the content appears, but no video. Firefox 109.0.1 MacOS 10.12.6 Content plays as expected with Safari

Every time I open this browser it opens to the size of a notepad. I want it to open to the full size of my desktop computer screen. I can not find an option to instruct the browser to do this. I also have to hit on the full size icon 2x in order to get it to increase.

So as of the other day, Firefox seems to have issues signing in to google accounts, signing into youtube yields constant "offline-Retry" errors that can be effectively mashed through with patience and persistance but takes forever, and reCaptcha repeatedly fails to connect when I attempt to submit it.

I tried clearing my history and cache, tried refreshing Firefox on the whole, but it still runs into these issues?

I have Firefox as my default browser (running on Windows 10), but after I have it open for a while I start having performance problems with my laptop because of the amount of memory and CPU that Firefox is using. A few minutes ago, I was having significant response delay while using LinkedIn through Firefox.

As I write this, I still have two LinkedIn windows open plus this support window. Firefox is using 2,340 MB of memory. Firefox CPU usage bounces up to 30-35 % range for several minutes at a time.

Somehow my Firefox automatically changes to Hungarian so I can't understand what the screen choice are. I found a languange selection on firefox.com at the lowr right hand of tthe screen but it doesn't change permanenetly and every screen prompts in hungarian.

Only in Firefox browser, I login to things like Facebook with my username and it says I don't exist with that username. Multiple good accounts are doing this. I open Explorer and the same account works with the same password. Open on phone works beautifully.

Had reinstalled Firefox after harddrive repaced. But it was doing it. Refreshed Firefox. Thought it would solve. Didn't.

Help.

i recently aquired firefox. i am not sure if it is operational or not and even worse if it is what i need. this is a personel pc with several accounts with cc accounts etc.

I'm running on a Mac with current OS and default settings for Firefox. However, many websites -- and here I'm talking standard corporate stuff in US English -- are substituting a y with an umlaut for "fi". It's not happening in for all, but it's happening a lot.

Please see attached. No matter how many times I correctly typed "Office", it rendered as pictured. I also see this with downloaded HTML, i.e. not just me entering it, just the simple rendering of a webpage.

Any thoughts on what might be the issue are much appreciated.

we have a file named file.loa in a repo/website. When we download the file in firefox, it gets downloaded as file.mp3. If I download the same file in Chrome, it gets downloaded as file.loa. What is making firefox rename this file please? multiple people have been able to reproduce this weird behavior.

firefox 109 is constantly crashing, sometimes costing meexpenses. I have submitted over 50 crashes in the past month, aand have heard nor seen any response from firefox.

How can I rectify this without reinstalling firefox, which by the way was more trouble than it was worth, as it didn't fix the crashes , but did manage to clear my bookmark menus, which was a complete pain in the arse. any help will be greatly received - if it works
