My Mac will not load firefox today but my other browser does

I recently got a new computer, Apple iMac. I'm trying to transfer all my bookmarks I have on my older HP computer to the newer computer Apple. I downloaded the Firefox browser to the iMac. I see where there is a link to transfer bookmarks when I loaded the browser. But, when I click on the link, nothing really happens? There is no transfer of my bookmarks for my old computer to the newer computer. My OS with my older HP was Windows 7. My OS with my acquired Apple is Monterey. Can someone be of help with transferring bookmarks from one computer to another? I have many bookmarks so it would be very helpful to be able to make that transfer. Thank you.

Hello!

Ok, first of all, I know I did something really stupid. Firefox was not loading for me, so I used Clean My Mac to uninstall it and reinstall it. I did not realize that my profile information (bookmarks/passwords) was saved locally, and I didn't back anything up.

I know! Very stupid. I've already tried using a data recovery software, and that did not help at all. I think my original profile data might be lost.

However, I have sync on, and all of the profile data on my phone is still there. Is there any way to transfer all of my bookmarks and passwords from my phone to my desktop?

bold textbold text I absolutely cannot find a way to add website shortcuts to Firefox home page on a mac iOs Sonoma. Found several sets of directions, but nothing works. This is driving me crazy, so please tell me how to easily accomplish this using the tools of Mozilla for iOS Sonoma. Many thanks!

Hello, I have installed the Sequoia update on my iMac. Since the installation most of the font I use, especially if they are bold/italic... or using a font converter, appear in square shapped instead of text. This is only related to Firefox as it does no appear on any other browser I have opened the websites. I have cleared cookies and cache, but nothing works and weird fonts still appear (attached). Thank you for your help!

hi fellas i just bought macbook air 2012 in which OS is high seara and with no updates i want to ask that firefox works on older version like high seara ? anyone with personal experience?

I went to Ugsound.com accidently while using Firefox on my Imac. The Firefox warning came up immediately and I left the site. Did Firefox protect me from malicious virus or was it too late? I was on the site for maybe 7-8 seconds.

While my laptop was "aseep" something happened to your service. I was kicked off and told to resign in. I did not remember my password. I was cautioned that my data might be lost. What the hell happened?

Hi, When i want a new tab on Firefox i have 'Freshy' which appears while with Safari this does not happen .I heard that Freshy is an Hacker site .Pls lest me know how can I Remove it or avoid it Thanks for your feedback Regards

I don't think "Tabs" is the right topic, but maybe it's the best of the choices since "Other" isn't an option.

I have an email with a link to a monthly newsletter, which should take me to February's issue. When I click on, or copy/paste, the link, I end up with the January issue. When I copy/paste in Chrome and Safari, I get the February issue. The newsletter people suggested clearing my cache/cookies in Firefox, but that didn't help. No matter how I try to navigate to the newsletter in Firefox, I get to January. I have tried everything I can think of, and still get the January issue in Firefox, while that same link gets me the February issue in Safari and Chrome.

I'm using Firefox 122.0.1, on a MacBook Pro (Sonoma 14.2.1).

I'd appreciate any ideas you might have!

Tabs to not reliably reopen after closing Firefox. The latest occurrence, but not the only one, was after updating macOS 13 on a Mac Mini M1 using current version of FireFox.

I have read multiple help pages and double and triple checked settings. My work around has been to Bookmark All Open Tabs each time I close FireFox or shutdown the Mac - doable but a nuisance.

Suggestions appreciated

I have a new iMac (sonoma): I've migrated previous data to this machine and updated Firefox, but saved passwords are having problems. Some of my paid subscriptions are not letting me sign in, either through saved pws, or doing it manually. A few others seem to work okay. I've tried a few on Safari, where they work, so I suspect I have to change a setting in Firefox. But what? Any advice gratefully received.

Hi, By accident I changed a setting somewhare and now I can't share screen when using Google meets. I use a MacBook Air M2 2022 and run version Ventura 13.4 and Firefox version 113.0.2. I have googled the problem and had help from Apple support so I have already; - checked settings in my Mac - checked settings in Google Meet - deleted cash memory in Firefox - rebooting my computor - run Google Meet in Safari and screen sharing works

I don't dare to reinstall Firefox because then I will lose lots of data. What have I not done that this community could help me understand.

Thanks in advance.

Best, Fredrik
