Hi I’ve been searching online relentlessly for a solution to a problem I’m encountering with Firefox. The font it uses for Persian language is extremely difficult to read. Consequently, I’ve switched to Safari, which offers a significantly better font for Persian.

Firefox also encounters an issue with hashtags on Twitter. The hashtagged words appear in the same font as Safari, while the rest of the tweet is displayed in the default Firefox font.

I’d really appreciate it if you could help me fix this. I’d also like to know which font Safari uses for Persian language.

Thanks.

For a while now, Firefox and a few other browsers default my keyboard to navigating through web page items rather than typing letters when I click in the search bar or address bar. Then I have to click TAB (sometimes several times) to get the keyboard typing again. I have tried 4 keyboards total and they all act the same way but act normally on my Windows PC. I have done extensive investigating into why this might be happening and why its only happening in web browsers and have come up with nothing. I am using Raspbian OS on a RPi5 and have used it smoothly for about 7 months. This issue has slowly gotten worse until it is now constant. I reinstalled the OS completely and it stopped malfunctioning for a few days but came back in a hurry. I've come to you as a last resort. I am sure Firefox is not the issue but if you know of any possible reason why this might be happening and point me in the right direction I would be eternally grateful. Thanks.

I have Firefox on two Windows computers and was wondering what is the proper way to sync them.

One computer is not used often and I want to sync Firefox on it it with the Firefox on the computer I use daily so I want the Firefox that does not have the updated files updated using the Firefox data files on the computer I use daily and not the other way around. So what is the correct procedure to do this other than to make sure the Firefox program version is updated on the computer that is not used often?

Thanks

Hi, I have a virtual synth called Omnisphere. I open Firefox and go to YouTube, and I'll select a video to play. (I typically do this so I can use the Omnisphere synth to play along to for practicing my keyboard skills. YouTube will play just fine, but when I open Omnisphere, then try to play the YouTube video simultaneously, YouTube will just hang and won't play. I close Omnisphere and YouTube will play fine again. I know you'll think this is an issue with my virutal synth Omnisphere, but the strange thing is, that that same company makes another virtual synth called Keyscape, and when I try playing Keyscape and YouTube together, it works just fine. To me, this seems to be some kind of sharing issue, and likely a sharing setting of some kind. The audio settings in both Omnisphere and Keyscape are identical, so why would one work, but not the other?. I couldn't find any kind of virtual device sharing settings in Firefox or YouTube. The company that makes these virtual instruments has told me that it works fine with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, that's why I'm leaning towards the browser being the issue. Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks very much, I appreciate it.

I have a problem using a website called TherapyNotes with the Firefox browser, even though this was not an issue until recently. It seems even though camera permissions are enabled, Firefox is unable to connect to my camera for my telehealth sessions. The light indicating my camera is in use comes on for a second, then immediately turns off. I am also unable to even start a session and coast with voice only. The window to start my session never pops up. I have put in a ticket and been in contact with TherapyNotes going back and forth for the past couple of weeks. Their tech support insists it is an issue with Firefox since I can utilize their site completely on other browsers. I much prefer to use Firefox for the security, so I'm hoping there's something you can tell me to do to make it work.

A recent update apparently causes FF to add ".htm" when saving a text file that has no extension. It didn't used to do this. The file being downloaded has no extension. It is a hash text file used to verify my ownership of a domain during SSL cert renewal. I can save without an extension if I delete the extension and surround the filename with quotes. But that is a pain. Other browsers don't require this. How do I get my old FF behavior back?

Currently: FF 133.0.3 (64-bit), Win10

Years ago we used a program called A&M Deadlink to clean up dead bookmarks in FireFox. What is the latest tool for deleting old bookmarks, removing dead ones and cleaning up?
