Firefox Support Forum

Hello, Just the last couple of days I have been unable to view PDF documents using Firefox. The documents appear but all words and numbers have been replaced with symbols. I cleared my cache of cookies thinking that may have caused the issue but the problem remains. Do you have any other ideas to solve this issue??

My firefox installation always run in English with all of its interface elements being in English. One of the recent updates introduced a weird behavior - some of the UI became Russian. I seem to have fixed/bypassed the issue last time it happened https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1415337 but nothing works this time.

Most of my firefox is in English, but some elements such as tab titles in devtools, browser popups "do you want to leave this page", tooltips in this very text form where I'm typing right now - are in Russian for no apparent reason.

I have another profile on this firefox installation and it's completely in English as intended. I tried to check for what changed in about:config, looking for "language" or "locale" string, and there's nothing that stands out. I've tried clearing startup cache, switching language back and forth, restarting firefox.

Any suggestions?

After the update to 115.0.1 the hourglass symbol ('Wait') won't stop blinking. I've restarted and checked the task manager. Low power usage for everything and restarting changed nothing. ??

Thanks.

See image. Why is some manual pages like this and others are normal. This has just started, and the Publication company told me to use chrome because this never happens there. I have less problems with firefox so i stay here but this just started after latest update.

While writing this first time Firefox crashed. Win 7, ver 115.0.1 . I've reported multiple crashes lately and asked for response. Firefox causing high CPU. No response from them. Help

The icon for 1Password is not showing on my toolbar, neither is the one for adblock or Google Scholar or No Miner. How can I get them back? I'm using Firefox version v 115.0.1 on an M1 Mac running Mac OS v 13.4.1. They seem to be within the Extensions iconon the toolbar. Is that their permanent location now?

Thanks

Any extensions I install suddenly don't show up in my toolbar or the customization menu anymore, so I also can't drag them there manually.

Deleting the extensions and re-installing them didn't work, neither did deleting the extensions folder itself.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I've attached a screenshot of the customization menu and extensions menu below.

Thanks :)

When I try to log in to PayPal, all I get is the rotating circle. No further. I have no problem using Edge with PayPal. I can always switch but do not want to. Vern Carlson [removed email from public]

How do I have all my bookmarks and folders sorted by name automatically and permanently? When I open Bookmarks I want to see the folders sorted and the bookmarks inside each folder sorted, automatically so I never have to manually. In other words, behave like Windows File Explorer.

I'm almost certain I had it working that way on a previous installation of FireFox, but I can't get this new installation of Firefox to do the same.

I am trying to view a website that is protected by cloudflare and afew days ago I could look at it with out issue now it keeps coming up with Checking if the site connection is secure XXXXXXXX.net needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding.

I removed the web sites address from the above as its does this with a few sites

I have tried to view the sites in both Private/incognito Mode and standard window

if some one can help me figure this out I will be most welcome as it means I can view some of the sites I normally see there is a button that says to verify you are human but when I try to click it, it dissapears and starts constantly reloading or just a moment showing

yes I have a VPN and have tried viewing sites with and without it on as well as using a different browser

I have 8 windows open all the time on my main Firefox, and switching between them is hard because the name is that of the last tab I used, which might not be very human-readable or might be similar to one on another window. It would be great if I could name my windows! Is there a way to do that? If not, could I request that as a future feature?

I cannot drag the home button to the toolbar to add it ? i do not know why but i can add it to the right side by right clicking and clicking add to toolbar but thats not where i want it. I cant drag anything to add it where i want

Can we please reduce the size of the mandatory bars up top? Is the Fox going to be like Opera and the rest and make us leave? Why do they want half the screen? They took away the controls and then started making them fat. Right now I have 2/3 screen. Anybody have a solution? I know there is no explanation why they all do this. They never answer. Thanks.
