Firefox Community Forum

For some reason no matter how hard I try I am unable to change the display language of my Firefox account. Not my browser, my specific Firefox account.

This is the specific part of Firefox I'm having issues with. https://accounts.firefox.com/settings

bold textdownloading only produces " .part " files in my downloads directory. I had previously attempted a large file download but error message said it was not completed. Now cannot download anything

When I hover over tabs, Firefox also displays a text below. So, for example, if I hover over the tab for Google Calendar, a text below shows 'Google Calender - August 2024'. Can I disable the text somehow?

I'm using Firefox Firefox 129.01.

I get the following error when I try to log in to Bitwarden with windows hello: Browser integration is not set up in the Bitwarden desktop application. Please set it up in the settings within the desktop application.

A few days ago, on Firefox (been using for many years) middle clicking on a YouTube thumb nail video results in an "Video unavailable This content isn’t available" message. Must left click and and can only have one tab open at a time. Even when my wife emails me a link to see something on You Tube it will not open that video. This is very annoying involving copy and pasting and back tracking.

Searching for a solution, I can deselect video previews in YouTube settings (which I don't need anyway), however this only works in Chrome not in Firefox which is my preferred browser.

Maybe this can be corrected in either a Firefox or YouTube update.

Please Help Nick Androu

Firefox 129.0.1 Windows 10 22H2 (19045.4780)

I uninstalled WhatsApp desktop and deleted handlers.json, but when I click the "Join chat" button on chat.whatsapp.com, Firefox still ask me if I want to open with WhatsApp desktop.

Is this a default behaviour? If not, how can I fix this? Thanks.

How do I get AOL Webmail working for default mailto again?

I used to have the AOL mail site as Firefox's default mail. Somehow when I opened up Thunderbird recently for something, it up and decided that it had to be my default for mail links in Firefox, too, I guess? Maybe something changed with a system update a while back, I'm not sure. In case Thunderbird really did decide to take over, and will do it again next time I open it, what's the setting in that to get it to stop doing that? What did I put wrong in there?

At any rate, I haven't liked the change.

I don't seem to be able to pick AOL from the Applications options in Firefox's settings, and when I pick to "use other", I get a dialog that'll only allow me to pick an application file, and won't allow putting in the URL for AOL Mail. I did not use a helper app before, and the extension I tried from the Firefox Add-ons site doesn't work right. It opens the AOL page, but doesn't even open a new mail compose page, let alone fill the email address I clicked on as it ought to.

I'm guessing this will take editing something in about:config, but I don't know what to put in there. What's the fix?

Hello, my browser on my personal laptop is now under management by my university. I suspect this is because I used this account on their computers and they've gone backwards for whatever reason. I did a little digging but I don't think this is the same problem as the other articles. I'm just hoping there's a way I can disconnect my personal account from my school's systems and such, many thanks

bold text since the last update I have been getting a whole bunch of notices that I must "dismiss" when I start Firefox.

    How can I stop them from ?

Hi,

I know this must be weird

and I am aware of `about:config` -> `layout.word_select.stop_at_punctuation`

here is what bugs me:

with above setting to OFF , when I double click on IP address, like `123.123.123.123` , it selects all , exactly what I want

on the other hand, sometimes I need click on domains , for example I am visiting `https://firefox.org/` , and in address bar , if I double click the domain , it selects `https://firefox.org/` but I want it only to select the `firefox` or `org` depends on where I clicked , as the punctuation OFF only applied to IP, but keep ON with all other text

is this possible ?

Best regards,

If you go to "view", "toolbars", "customize toolbox", you'll see a box titled "search". Problem is, it's worthless. It used to be, you could either search in there using your pre-selected search engine or click on one of the others that are displayed and search using that one. Now, it just sits there taking space. What is the purpose of this? Another thread here titled, "[[Pressing Enter in empty search bar doesn't work anymore|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1452133?page=2#answer-1669039]]", discusses how the search page no longer works either.

If using just the search bar is "a power that be's" version of efficiency, it's not.

I think this is a new feature that let's you add background wallpaper. I tried it out when I was signed out and it seemed to work. But after I signed in with my Firefox account it doesn't show up.
