Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

First, I went to Firefox > About and it updated to: version 115, so then I downloaded Firefox extended support release [ESR] for mac from this site; while downloading; closed Firefox browser; and once finished downloading, I dragged to the 'applications folder.' Once there I clicked, "open" and it's still showing latest version: 115.

In Settings > Add-ons > Manage extensions, I have the following:

Adblock + Brave is disabled

DuckDuckGo is enabled

• I do not have Firefox showing at all.

Please advise what to do next.

Thanks

Why can't my Firefox browser on my computer sync with my phone? I've been browsing through a lot of information online all morning but haven't found any solution. My Firefox accounts on my computer and phone are both the same email, why can't they sync?? And I haven't received any response when scanning the QR code on my phone or computer. Can you provide me with a solution? My email is joachim0326@163.com And this is also my account

Everytime i open firefox it defaults to bing, but not as a homepage which is just my regular firefox, rather as a startup screen. If the firefox application is closed and opened again it will default to bing.

The LLMs said your sync website has that ability, but I can't find it. Is than LLM hallucination or simply disabled or something. I really want to not have to recreate these links.

Thanks!

I have just had Windows 11 reinstalled on my Laptop, I synced everything over from my desktop but Setup VPN and Hoxx icons which would be with other add-ons are missing, I emailed both suppliers. I followed their instructions and found that both add-ons are enabled but no icons. I don't appear to have any overflow, no '>>' I tried uninstalling them but still no icons to enable me to use these.

Tab "unloading" interferes with using colab.research.google.com and can corrupt hours of compute.

Is "unloading" a binary option? browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory true/false

Is the only user-initiated action a destructive action? about:unloads / Unload

The problem I encounter has happened since I begin to use Firefox on Windows 11. The same problem happened to my Macbook as well, but a workaround is available. While with Windows 11, I can't find the solution anywhere on the web. Whenever I type on the browser, if I write a non-character notation right behind the word (like "this,"), the word would usually auto delete itself or sometimes, the word clone itself out (e.g, wordword, thisthi, etc.) or it deletes a small section of words right behind that non-char. I don't have insert turning on. I am quite uncertain whether you can reproduce this error on your laptop (for me, I have been through 2 windows 11 laptop and this error still persist). This error seems to only occurs for Vietnamese (Telex and VNI) default keyboard from Microsoft, Russian and English work fine. I suspect that it is caused by Microsoft Vietnamese, but I have unchecked all kind of spelling checking on settings. So should I use a third-party Vietnamese language typing for this situation or does it caused by something else?

https://home.oki-toki.net/login is a VOIP site, it calls the client after connection a new tab opens. The problem is that I can't hear the client until I click on the “oki toki” tab. When I click, I can see that only at that moment the client is connected (the button on the site indicates this, take my word for it). Previously on Chrome there was no such problem and I could hear the client immediately without having to go back to “oki toki”. I have enabled all sites to automatically play video and audio. In the deep settings, I disabled the function to automatically unload tabs when running out of memory. This did not help. This problem regardless of whether the browser is open or minimized. Please help

if you join for example a jitsi meeting and switch to another tab then the favicon of the jitsi page gets replaced by a red microphone icon. this replacement keeps running in an animation favicon -> microphone icon -> favicon -> ...

for motion sensitive persons this is terrible.

i tried the following settings i found googling but the animation is still there: ```

1. webrtcIndicator {

 display: none;

} ```

``` .tab-icon-overlay[sharing] {

   display: none !important;

} ``` - `ui.prefersReducedMotion 1` - `toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled false`

how to disable the animation

When I highlight a word while browsing, and right-click that, I get the option to search with Google, the search engine it is configured for. However I often would rather go directly to Wikipedia. I do NOT want to make that the default for search, but I would find having another line below "Search Google for " that offers "Search Wikipedia for ". Such an option would save me considerable work. Is there such an option? If so I could not find it. (If not, dare I suggest it as an enhancement?)

Thanks!
