Firefox Community Forum

I installed Firefox on a fresh Win 11 install, and most of the the favicons are still generic on the Home Page several days later. Facebook, Ebay and Youtube are the only ones that appear consistently, sometimes other will display, but then be gone again the next time the app is launched. All other links just have the generic letter icons.

I tried deleting the 3 favicon files in the Profiles folder, but it did nothing. I've tried manually re-adding the links, still nothing. I removed the "S" from "https;//" and still nothing. The favicons all show up on my other machines which use Firefox on the same user account, so it is not a problem with the websites themselves.

Not sure if its related, but upon installing Firefox on this machine, it made Firefox on my Mac desktop absolutely freak out. I had to make a significant number of changes over the course of hours to fix everything, so many relating to favicons alone that I don't know what actually fixed it.

What else can I do to try and get these working? Why does Firefox apparently struggle with this particular feature across multiple OSes?

Thanks.

Hi, I’m trying to use the audioTracks API from the Web API. I found out that I need to enable a specific flag in Firefox, but it doesn’t seem to be working as expected. Even though my video has multiple audio tracks, it only shows one audio track and doesn’t list their properties correctly. But In Chrome, Edge and Safari it is working as expected. Here I am attaching the screenshots of both Firefox and Chrome for comparison. The Blank drop down is from FireFox.

The offline package download speed is too slow and sometimes fails. I hope it can be provided separately, like interface language packs, just as Debian has separate interface language packs.

Hello -

My bookmarks (400+) that I have accumulated over several years were all gone when I signed into my computer recently. I tried to restore them, but I was unable to get them back from all of the 15 backup points. I kept getting an "unable to process backup folder" error message. I only have one Firefox profile that I am currently signed into.

I use CC cleaner to clean my computer weekly and sometimes use the custom clean feature to clean up cookies and browsing history, but by default the clean bookmark backups box is unchecked and I have never had a problem using it before. I suppose it's possible that I may have checked that box, but I don't know if that would have also wiped the bookmarks off my browser. I am also checking with CC tech support to see if they have any answers. Suppose I may be out of luck if so.

I also sometimes go into FF settings and clear browsing history and cookies, but I don't think there's even an option to wipe out all bookmarks. I have also been doing that for years, and have never had an issue before. Does anyone know if there's a way to re-download my bookmarks from the cloud, or do I have to start all over again?

Any tips would be appreciated, thanks.

i dont want to update because of ai. i am tired of updates in the name of security that change how program works. i do not plan to update anymore. i do not want ai to know my name. i dont want to click it away every day. i am tired of your update popup. tired of clicking it away ten times a day. you want to synch to my contacts. dont know why' certainly dont want it to synch, dont even use my calander but you want it to synch also. why? i came to you for a browser. do you have a secure browser that is just a browser? can you help me stop the update popup or tell me a browser that is not ai.

Does anybody know if there are any plans on updates that would allow Facebook-users to make videocalls on Firefox again, with the new E2EE-feature? Currently it is not possible on Firefox at all since Firefox does not support this feature and switching to another browser for each videocall is a bit troublesome, so an update would be greatly appreciated.

When Pocket was replaced by TenTabs, my Pocket extension vanished and I'm unable to locate the new TenTabs one -- if it even exists. Is it possible to "bookmark" TenTabs articles? If not what was the point of the change other than to make the product useless?

I recently bought an new HP Win 11 PC to replace my current Win 10 machine. Running latest FF 144.0.2 on both. How do I transfer my complete FF profile (bookmarks, bookmark bar, login data, EVERYTHING) to the new PC? Want the new install to be an exact functional copy.

THANKS!

When I want to login with my Firefox account it asks me for a code as 2 factor but I can't remember that I ever signed up for 2 -factor . I have 2 apps fro 2 factor: google and Microsoft but neither has Mozilla identification in it. I would like to sign up for 2 factor but it looks like someone already did that for me. What now?

On my previous laptop using Windows 11, a dialog box would open when I entered a username and password while online, asking if I wanted to save the username and password. On my brand new laptop, that dialog box does not come on screen. Id like to be able to store that info so I don't have to enter it each time.

Thanks!

If a site is designed so that it breaks if trackers are blocked, why would I want to deal with such bad actor? In other words, don't the exceptions to tracker-blocking enable bad website behavior?
