I-Firefox Community Forum

I would like to use Firefox as a browser on my Linux Mint device. As I said in the headline, I have set all languages in the system as well as in Firefox to German and uninstalled and reinstalled the dictionary. So when I write something in Firefox it is underlined in red and when I right click for the context menu where word suggestions are made, only English is displayed and if I then scroll down and want to add another language as a spell checker, Firefox sends me to the add-on administration, which didn't help me. Because no matter what I do, only English (USA) is displayed as the language for spelling. Is there perhaps no way to change this, or is there another method?

Many thanks in advance.

I'm on Windows 11 Pro 23H2. This is a pristine installation, downloaded from mozilla.org, default settings, no add-ons. - Firefox 126.0.1. - There are no cookies, history or cache to clean, since it's a fresh installation. - Connection settings is set default to "Use system proxy settings", although I've also tried setting it up to "No proxy", then restarting Firefox completely, then trying again with a new domain. No change. - DNS over HTTPS is set default to "Default protection". I've also set it to "Off", then restarting Firefox completely, then trying again with a new domain. No change.

I don't what else to try and I don't know what's wrong with Mozilla Firefox.

Can you help?

I've made an extention which works fine when I test it using the temp mode on firefox. When I attempt to install from file however I'm told it could not be installed as it appears to be corrupt. Below are the package.json and the manifest.json:

package.json

{

 "name": "ext",
 "version": "1.0.0",
 "description": "",
 "main": "contentScript.js",
 "scripts": {
   "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
 },
 "keywords": [],
 "author": "",
 "license": "ISC"

}

manifest.json

{

 "manifest_version": 2,
 "name": "SKUORG",
 "version": "1.0",
 "description": "Organises SKUs on WooPage",
 "permissions": [
   "activeTab",
   "webNavigation",
   "<all_urls>"
 ],
 "content_scripts": [
   {
     "matches": ["<all_urls>"],
     "js": ["contentScript.js"]
   }
 ]

}

I have tried on two devices / installs of firefox and have followed the steps I could find on this page : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/unable-install-add-ons-extensions-or-themes#w_corrupt-extension-files

If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Sometimes I find that Firefox just randomly closes on my laptop, usually when I step away for about 10-20 minutes. I can't find any info in the about:crashes page when it happens.

Hi,

my firefox does not load any webpage no matter what Firefox profile I am using (created a new one for tests). I have a Win10 pc with Avast and Comodo installed, the system with the mentioned software and multiple different Firefox profiles was running since several years without problems.

A month ago I had the same issue with Firefox 126, which I guess was caused by a windows update, where I had trouble getting it installed. But after this (I had to increase the system reserved partition) Firefox was running without any problmes like before ...

Now no pages kan be load and always the crash monitor pops up.

Hello there i use wp.pl for mailing and after i stay on the page for too long the browser lags and it starts to use a lot of memory like from 4GB to even 8GB

I'm unable to load any web pages since receiving an update 4-17-24 on Windows 11. It doesn't seem likely I'll be able to get another update to fix this via the browser. What do I do? Uninstall?

When I open poges now I see often "Firefox darf diese eingebettete Seite nicht öffnen" maybe similar to "Firefox can't open the imbedded page"

I can't see my own music tracks posted on x.com! That's a kind of fraud! What are you doing? At SAP I have to use Edge on Linux already cause you are doing a very bad job! WTF is going on? Are you doing anything or just breaking things?

When I attempt login to store account, I get the error below. I have uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox to no avail; login works fine in MS Edge

{"sec-cp-challenge": "true","provider":"recaptcha","provider_secret_public":"6LfU2I4aAAAAABeLkTGHOItQ5XTtsv2BpEBonIj_","branding_url_content":"/_sec/cp_challenge/message-4-4.htm"}

browsing website (reddit or amazon for example), the window scrolls to the top every time I move the mouse. doesn't happen all the time though, and only in Firefox. I've serached the internet and can't find anything related. Please help

I am trying to log on to my account at SketchUp. At the login page i hit get started and a black page come up except in the top left corner is typed "Firefox not responding" the page hangs a few moments then it takes me back to SketchUp login. I have not had any recent updates done or required since last logged in and that was yesterday all worked well.

I would just like to know why it crashes immediately every time i try to run it, my network isn't blocking it and i still cant run it even after turning off anti virus protection

Please help me to understand why I keep getting the 'Gah! Your tab just crashed' message. This only started a couple of weeks ago, but is extremely annoying and makes me doubt the integrity of Firefox. The problem can be circumvented (at least for a while) by closing and re-opening Firefox, but I'd prefer not to have to keep doing this.

Hi! I wish to edit my limit on how instances firefox runs but i cant. I searched up how to change but cant find the option for it. It said that i should just untick use recommended setting in performance but all that happens is tht i get anotheter option to untick hardware accleration.

Installed 127.0 (20240606181944) from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/ and since then I've been unable to:

• Close a window by closing the last tab (the last tab X does nothing)
• The toolbar Account icon has nothing under it, have to go via Settings to manually sync and manage account

I am able to start FF with no problem. I open a few tabs and then without warning I can't access any of the sites without closing FF and restarting. Then the whole cycle is repeated. I am considering getting rid of FF this started just over a month ago.

Hello. Our organization is experiencing an issue where sound settings are not carrying over correctly to Firefox. Specifically, this is with speaker settings. In multiple calling platforms (tested in Genesys Cloud and Teams), we are not able to adjust the settings for the speaker that audio plays from. We can adjust the default microphone setting, but not the speaker setting. This is only occurring in Firefox (works fine in Edge and Chrome).

Additionally, we've tried adjusting the default audio settings by going to Windows > Sound settings > App volume and device preferences, and changing the settings specifically for Firefox on this page. This does not work. When we check Teams or Genesys Cloud, it seems like Firefox is just picking any default without a rhyme or reason.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I use firefox on fedora 38 and after update firefox about a month ago . i got this error when use private mode ,for thai languge it just error but in normal mode it ok .
