In windows 10 I have disabled ClearType antialiasing. Because of this, Firefox does not make antialiasing of some fonts: Firefox-Google Firefox-Wiki

On the same system, Chrome browser does antialiasing (grayscale): Chrome-google Chrome-wiki

How to force the Firefox to use antialiasing the same way as Chrome?

Firefox is 113.0.2

I am part of an email list in which many emails come in everyday. That is why I created a sub-folder in Thunderbird for them, and created a manual filter so that all emails with the email-list's address as addressee are redirected to that sub-folder. I do want to be able to receive all the emails that go to that email list, just in this separate folder, so that it doesn't crowd out my other emails. I set the settings to "filter before Junk classification" and I also put that filter on top of all the filters.

I just realized that many many of the emails to that email list landed in the spam folder instead. The addressee is exactly as stated in my manual filter. It is explicitly set to FIRST go through my manual filter before they can be classified as spam. If Thunderbird did what it says it does, none of these emails should land in the spam folder, because filtered out by my manual filter before.

Does anyone know why this happens, and how to prevent it?

Hi

I would need some help

Example. Let's say I'm using FirefoxTranslations to translate an average-sized article, on Wikipedia, from German into English.

On the top left hand side of the screen, FirefoxTranslations tells me it has downloaded 17'140'835 bytes.

It always seems to be the same amount of bytes. This is downloaded for every single translation.

I thought that, once downloaded, the vocabulary would be stored, locally, on my computer. Permanently.

Doesn't look like it's happening.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any help

I see in the blog the roboform extension does not work with Firefox for many users. It errors that it only works in a browser. Why can't Roboform see or associate the connection when Firefox browser is in use. If it is in use, then Roboform should work. Is it a Firefox problem or a roboform problem? Between both of you surely someone can resolve this problem? It seems Roboform has washed their hands of the problem because they reply with a standard enable process that doesn't work for many people. I am on my 2nd new computer and still have the same problem. Again the error states it only works when the browser is in use. If the browser is in use, then what is the problem? thanks for any assistance you can provide.... I like Firefox and Roboform, it would be a blessing to have both working at the same time. A screenshot is attached for the error

I found the use of using right-click on images to get a general menu, and the middle-clicking on "Open image in new tab" a boon, because it would often enlarge the images and make them easier for me to see.

In the past two days, suddenly this has become a hit or miss situation and I'm not sure why. Sometimes I can middle-click on "open image in a new tab" multiple times and get no response. Other times if I hold down for a while and then release, it will open the image. And then other times again it will work as intended.

I'm not quite sure why this issue has suddenly occured.

Firefox is up to date, Version 113.0.2 (64-bit). My mouse is a KLIM Blaze, drivers 3.1 which again seem to be up to date. My middle-click in new-tab is set to true in firefox's config.

Does anyone know why these issues are happening?

I have version 102.11.0 on my Mac Catalina. Recently I noticed problems on this Thunderbird. Last month I sent eFaxes that did not go through. My telephone service is looking into that since they provide the email address I am to use for faxing. However, I sent an email with attachment to my GMAIL address, which is not synced with Thunderbird, so that I could bring the file from that inbox into Google Drive. The attachment is a text document I am working on with Google apps. Though the email arrived, in Thunderbird I did not receive a cc: copy, as I usually make with all my email messages. Strange that this should happen after many months of reliability.

I used to use Firefox about 19 years or more The last two years..... FireFox was enable the auto-translate of Youtube videos in Arabic language automatically ........ Then it stopped working since four months

I thought that the "Improve Youtube extension" was the reason. I contacted the developer and said:


Its misunderstanding of the feature :( afaik as is today Improve Youtube will use the subtitle language to switch on CC if its provided in this language by video author, it doesnt switch auto-translate. Ill look into making it enable auto-translate if requested CC is missing.



Today I noticed that all videos have Arabic CC ..... Mmm, the feature has returned to work again! without any interference from me In order... to make sure the reason...... I disable all my FireFox extensions, and it is surprising that the automatic translation is still working and I recorded a video to see for yourself how to work directly once you enter the video

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NzHPZDUlQFzEExPCqHuWXC6xXb0bOR6B/view?usp=sharing

In your opinion, what is the explanation for that?

I know that YouTube has options for displaying / enable auto-translate always ... but it is only for the English language .... I am talking about the translation of the Arabic language in all videos Sooooo A feature from YouTube itself or what? And if it was, why did it stop in the past four months, and now it has returned to work?

We have multiple computers accessing the same email, everyone applying a specific tag for their emails. We have had the 5 default ones (names customized), then recently added a 6th for a new employee. Since then each user can only see the tags they apply from their screens, nobody else's tags applied (others appear as regular black color). I have tried updating all the email apps on all users, tried removing that new tag on all computers, rebooted, uninstalled TB on 1 computer while the new tag was removed, still cannot see others' tags. Help please! Is there a settings file I can remove? Or some sort of switch or add-on? Perhaps having to do with a new install of virus Bitdefender? There is an add-on for it in TB. Anyone have issues using TAGS suddenly stop working?

Hello there, Disabling the preview pane in the folder view works as expected, pressing "F8" will disable the preview pane and this remain disabled even after restarting TB. This does not work on the search function, to replicate: 1) make a search 2) open a message in the search result 3) hit "F8" (nothing appens) 4) then if You resize the preview pane until it disappear and You go to "Structure/Preview Pane" it's disabled (?) 5) close the message, open another result and the preview pane will reapper just a little resized...

What we are missing? It is possible there's an advanced settings under "Config editor" to change this behaviour?
