I got a new PC and tried to import my Firefox bookmarks. But on the right side menu when you click bookmarks, it only show recent ones which actually aren't recent at all. How do you get that selection to show all of the bookmarks instead of recent?

Also I'm still getting a prompt underneath the address box to manage bookmarks and I can't get rid of it. How do I clear that out?

I found this file on my desktop. File type is Firefox HTML Document. Size 1KB. I've never noticed this before and wonder it I should delete it, move it, or what. Anything to worry about? I haven't opened it.

Thanks for any enlightenment you can offer!

I read a SmartBlock explanation, but it was quite unclear. Seems to be tying SmartBlock to Facebook. I do not use Facebook. Why is logging in with Facebook required for SmartBlock to work on sites that are unrelated to Facebook? Very unclear.

Hello, Thanks for taking your time to help me with an internet page problem. The pages load but when using the cursor to select an option, I must reload the page using the circle with an arrow icon almost every time. Never happened before and it's annoying. Recent Windows 11 update? Or, what? [email removed]@yahoo.com

I submitted a question earlier about not being able to use DocuSign. jonzn4SUSE was very quick with a response that worked perfectly. However, when I tried to mark it solved, I got the following error message. In addition, I didn't know where to find my original question so I could thank Jon and mark the issue closed. Where should I have looked for it?

Microsoft seems to have cut Firefox out for video chats. This is a recent change. Their message is that video is not supported by my browser (Firefox)

When I try to save a page as a link, the space for the URL is filled with 'VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV'! How do I fix this? I can't take a screenshot because it disappears when I switch to cut & snip or 'save screen'.

Using Firefox, my gmail inbox is my home page - and has been for several years. As of yesterday, the page opens but the page is blank. I am not aware of any changes that I have made.

I do not have this problem using chrome on the same device or firefox on other devices.

Probably something simple, but I have no idea what.

Thank you

Firefox just introduced a cool feature that lets us set custom wallpapers on the home screen—love it! But whenever I try using pictures from my personal library, they don’t fit properly and end up getting cropped. Resizing doesn’t help either, since making the image smaller just ruins the quality.

So, is there a specific format I should be using? Like, does it need to be JPEG only, or will any file type work? And if any format is fine, what’s the ideal one for the best results? I couldn’t find anything in the settings or help pages about this.

Hi,

I have tried to sync between my two computers, but it did not work out well:

e.g when I click on ‘show more bookmarks (>>)’ on the right side of the screen (next to Other Bookmarks) I get - Firefox is not responding and I have to click on

-> Close the program.

If I click on -> Wait for the program to respond - Firefox never responds! And before I click on -> Close the Program - my keyboard input is totally erratic!

This occurs on both computers! - what can I do…..

I have therefor on the computer I want to be on the receiving end:

- deleted: History, Downloads and Tags and All Bookmarks - Cleared browsing data and cookies - Closed all open tabs

And now I am Signed in with Syncing; ON - on both computers again.

But I have not checked any of the check-boxes in ‘Manage sync…’ - ‘Manage what syncs on all your connected devices’ i.e. Bookmarks, Passwords, settings, History, Payment methods, Open tabs, Add-ons

Why is there no check-box tag groups!

What do I have to do on my SOURCE compute and on the DESTINATION computer for - a one way sync of everything?

Best regards, Einar

PS,

After Signing in I was presented with the following, and I chose Not Now

Sync your Firefox experience View your saved passwords, tabs, browsing history and more — across all your devices. Select an option to continue:

Again ONLY in FF harbor freight search function breaks when entering a search.

Yes, please don't give me the MS ctrl-alt-del type of response about cookies.... That was done many times before posting this. The website works fine in Brave. MS Edge well, let's not speak of it in public company shall we.

So, now what the heck is happening to FF???? I have contacted HF three times and they referred me to use other browsers other than FF. No, I DO NOT have multiple extensions nor themes. FF is bare bones but for uBlock. Hardware acceleration is off and MS Clear type is on. Anybody wanna fess up, who broke this????

When I launch the browser, can I not preload tabs that I have not used yet in this session, but which are open from the previous one? This is slowing down my weak PC. I did not find anything about this either on the Internet or in the reference book. Thanks in advance for your answer

I HAD TO DELETE MY WINDOWS 10 COMPLETELY FROM THIS PC BECAUSE OF PROBLEMS WITH DOWNLOADS. I HAD YOUR FIREFOX BROWSER AND YOUR VPN INSTALLED ON IT. AS I AM PAYING FOR IT, I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU PUT IT ON THIS VERSION OF WINDOWS THAT I HAVE INSTALLED. PLEASE ADVISE. TOM MOORE.
