The latest version of Firefox, 130, introduces several key updates that focus on improving usability and security. One of the most notable features is support for partial web page translations, allowing users to translate selected blocks of text on multilingual pages, which is helpful when only parts of a page are in a different language. Additionally, Firefox 130 introduces Curve25519 encryption, which enhances security, and the browser can now generate secure passwords automatically.

Furthermore, Firefox's picture-in-picture video mode has been enhanced, allowing videos to follow users across tabs. An AI chatbot feature is available in the sidebar as an experimental feature.click here for future information

ChatGPT will not open in Firefox I have cleared caches etc checked for updates. However i can open on my iPhone using Safari and then I downloaded Chrome and can access via Chrome so this leads me to assume that the issue is with Firefox!! Please advise.

I cannot print from Firefox. It worked fine, and then stopped. I'm not sure what changed. It doesn't matter what printer I use. Even printing to PDF fails. No errors appear, and nothing shows up in the printer queue. All the other applications in Windows print just fine. It's just Firefox. And just for this one Windows user.

I tried clearing the saved printer settings in the about:support page. I tried refreshing Firefox. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. I tried uninstalling, removing the mozilla folder in %appdata%, and reinstalling Firefox. No luck.

The only time I can get it to print anything is to log into a different user account on this same PC. Printing from Firefox seems to work then.

It seems there is some user-specific printer setting/file/whatever that is messed up. I'm not sure what else to try.

Thanks.

macOS Sonoma, M1 Not sure when this happened, but I can no longer change my zoom level in settings. As you can see in the screenshot, the - and + are both greyed out and I can't use them. Using cmd+ or cmd- doesnt work either.

I updated Firefox yesterday and today I cannot access any comment sections on stories (Yahoo). I have re-booted my computer and cleared my cache. I looked at my privacy and security section of Firefox, but couldn't see anything that might affect this. In the past, I sometimes have to re-load the page to access the comments, but that is not working either. Here is the message that shows up: Oops, something went wrong :( We detected some connectivity issues therefore we’re unable to load the Conversation

Comments were working fine before the Firefox update.

Any suggestions?

I like using Firefox but it is increasingly becoming incompatible with more and more websites. There is nothing wrong with the websites, I can login using Google Chrome just fine. Firefox simply won't allow me to login to certain websites that I was able to access using Firefox before. Anyone know why this is happening?

If mozila Firefox is unlocked with a master password & we continue browsing , will passwords be still safe & secured by firefox protection during that browsing session ?

I have recently had to use an "other" browser to complete GoFundMe donations. Anyone know why Firefox won't complete the transactions? It works for all other transactions.

Hi. I have various folders, for different businesses.. And when browsing I need to save a certain website for both businesses, like a trade show for example. But a bookmark can only be saved in one folder. I refuse to belive this is a thing in 2024.. Is there a solution? A hack? I know if I click on a different page of a webiste it will save, but some pages only have one page url.. I thought maybe changing the name of the bookmark might work but it doesn't. Any help appreciated.

Used to be my Homepage was set to Yahoo.com as my Firefox browser. Lately after putting my computer to sleep and I wake up the computer and click on the Firefox Icon on my desktop it wakes up with Hong Kong Yahoo web page and everything is in Chinese. My Windows region is set to the U.S. and Canada, and the Time zone to central mountain time. Nothing has changed there. There are no new favorites, I cleared the history and the cache, and now I get nothing BUT Hong Kong Yahoo and everything is in Chinese when I want to go to Yahoo to log into my mail account. I have now switched to microsoft Edge to get my mail, and will soon dump Firefox if I can migrate my favorites to Edge and this problem persists.

i need to restore my email system ... I use aol currently I am not getting emails I really need from 2 companies in particular Redfin and Zillow. I am looking for a house please help me.

Today I manually download and rename the firefox executable so a script that runs as a Sandbox is spun up is ready to go immediately. But that entails me manually downloading, then renaming the installer to a name that the script always knows. And often the setup file gets updated on the web and I am running the prior version, or older depending on when I went thru that manual process.

So I am back looking for a way to either find a way to download the newest installer each time or find a way to kick off the internal updater right after its currently scripted install completes. Either could work.

I hate having to use Edge as its the browser MS automatically installs when a sandbox is spun up.

Or are there other ideas on how to accomplish this? Thanks, Bill

My email inbox show no emails in it. My I phone shows over 8000 emails in my email account. In the old Firefox page, all my emails are there on my computer, but not in the new . How do I get all my emails into the new Firefox email inbox? Thank you.

I was working in Firefox for windows with several tabs open. After a computer restart, my Firefox browser reopened but none of my (many) tabs would reload. I closed Firefox and attempted to restart it by using the "restore previous tabs" function. Instead of opening, I received a small window pop up with error message about "older versions of Firefox yada yada" with two option: create new profile or Exit. I click exit (which closed the window) and tried restarting Firefox again, but received the same error. This time I selected the create new profile button. Firefox relaunched but, not only did the "restore previous tabs" option disappear, my browser history was completely wiped. Is there any way to recover my tabs/previous session?

Thank you, Justin

Hi,\

Over the past week or so, my homepage refreshes intermittently and all of the time when I close tab. When I am on my homepage to read (MSN), I typically use the right click command to open the links in a new tab so I can keep the article in the homepage there. Every time I close the news tabs, the homepage refreshes. If I am just sitting on the homepage for few minutes, it auto-refreshes.

This does not happen on Edge or Chromium and I have been back to Firefox because I want more control over not having AI functions and Chromium still has serious limitations. But this is annoying. I have tried changing as many of the relevant settings in about:config that I could find to no avail. My PC an All-in-One 6 core Ryzen 7 with 16GB of RAM, which is far more than enough to handle the memory hog Firefox is (sometimes it eats nearly 2 gigs).

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Tom
