On 10/5/2024 I suddenly had no access to my saved passwords for websites, all my bookmarks were gone and no autofill works anymore. I have searched and searched for anything relating to these missing saves in password manager, I've used EaseUS, I've tried system restore. It's like my my saves were completely wiped! When I did a system restore, Firefox uninstalled itself completely when it shouldn't have. Now it's like I never had Firefox on this pc and there's no history or anything dated before today 10/6/2024. I've tried import from other browsers and there's nothing there. I'm a bit upset here, is my history, saved passwords, bookmarks and, autofill just gone and irretrievable?

Suddenly this morning, a new toolbar appeared on my copy of Firefox (131.0) showing one item, Getting Started, which I have no use for. I managed to delete it and it was replaced with something telling me to place my bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar, which I also don't want. How do I get rid of it as it's nothing else for me but a waste of screen real estate?

Since several days I have problems in using my mail-account at web.de The website starts and I can log in. But then my mails don't open up like they should. I called web.de and they said I shoud use another browser. And really when I use Microsoft Edge it is much better. I would like to use Firefox on my desktop further on. Could you give me a hint?

Hi everyone,

I am experiencing several crashes with no clear reason, I believe it has to do video players but I don't know much more than this. The browser is up to date and it crashes even in troubleshooting mode.


Here is the crash ID: bp-d8d89c47-88c1-41b1-a90d-f594d0241007

Additionally for a while now it is impossible to watch youtube in anything more than 360p, the option simply doesn't appear

Thank you, Joe

With the last couple of updates to Firefox, I can't successfully log in to FB. I get the error msg "Your Request Couldn't be Processed" three times and then I can access FB, but I am then unable to post any images and am forced to leave FB since it is frozen. The other problem I am having is the open tab with Fox news gives me a crash report if I leave it open without viewing it. Whe I try to use Edge, Chrome, or Brave there is no problems for the same sites.

I have made sure I have the latest version of FF, cleared cache and closed all extensions.

A new version of the "List All Tabs" appeared on my toolbar today, shown on the left and hovered over in the attached screenshot (ignore the Malwarebytes extension icon). The old icon for this button was a chevron with approximately the same functionality. I was able to remove the old icon, but I'm unable to find a way to remove this one. Here is what I've tried so far:

  • Like the old one, the Customize Toolbar feature is unable to remove it since it is grayed out.
  • For a while, I was able to remove the old icon by going to about:config and setting browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled to false. This solution does not work for the current and some recent versions of the button.
  • I attempted to create a userChrome.css file (following all the steps according to this this website) and added the following string: #alltabs-button { display: none !important; }

None of these attempted fixes have removed the button following a browser restart. Is there a way to remove it? I have no need of a button that shows me what tabs I have open when I can simply look at my toolbar.

No changes been made to my Mozilla account unless Mozilla banned me for constructive criticism yesterday. Earlier today Oct 4, 24 booted up laptop no issues. 3 hours later from cold start issue.

My version of FF 131.0 updated yesterday indicates I'm not signed in. Repeated sign-in attempts successful only to be disconnected seconds later. No issues logging into Mozilla Monitor to see progress and navigate around without disconnection. On Android 11 cell phone no issues, on Asus tablet Android 7.0 no issues. What am I doing wrong or missing? See attached screen shots and browser data.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Latest update (10/2/24) is impossible to use. How can I get back the prior version for Mac OS Sonoma 14.6.1 on my Macbook Air?

I have a TBI that really limits my ability to process information. The tabs now have a dropdown that is very confusing and gets in the way of my working. I have to shut Firefox and leave the computer, but of course when I am recovered from the confusion, I come back to the same situation.

I was able to find a way to stop the even-more-frustrating dropdown video preview, but it's not enough.

I have relied on FF for years, but it seem that putting more bells & whistles is more important than providing a functional browser interface. Please explain to me in plain English how to remove the overloaded browser and revert to a version I can utlize without a breakdown.

My LN only has 8 letters, but my street address is long, and I have old addresses w 5+4 zip codes that differ by the last 4. The 'Saved address' popup only shows most of the address, and it's not resizable. (See image )

I have to open each address to see it. Suggestion_--- Make the box wider, auto adjust, or (best) restore the sizing bars.

Thanks!

Win 10 64-bit. Updated to Ffx 131.0. Can't use most of my websites. It's blocking or preventing something. Had to use Chrome to re-do my mother's Walmart grocery order because it wouldn't load the screen to enter her EBT card PIN. Wouldn't log in to the State Farm website to pay bills. Downgrading to v 130. How to know when these problems are fixed?' I had to use Chrome instead. Some websites don't work w/ Ffx, such as California Lifeline (https://californialifeline.com/en/provider_search), but I can live with that. Chrome uses too many resources and slows my laptop to a crawl, and Edge is just... Ick. Can't get rid of it. Will try installing v 130 for now. I have too much info in Ffx to uninstall or reset it.

I and my clients LOVE Mozilla and Ffx, but I, for one, can't afford the time to beta-test like this. Lost the WM grocery pickup window for Mom because of this. Wasted way too much time on too many occasions & had to downgrade over and over. Programming since the 1970s, so I know better: Wait for the screams to die down before upgrading any software. My bad. Thought you should know at least a couple of the problems with the new update. BTW: Logged in, but had to search the web to find out how to post this question. Is there a quick way to report problems?

I've tried clearing my cache and cookies. My firefox browser is up to date. I tried disabling ad blocker and cookie auto-delete. Javascript is enabled and I even tried turning on that feature that prevents page redirects. I'm truly at a loss for what to do.

Hi

www.typeset.io

My library does not show its contents. MacOSx Catalina, Firefox.

I can see the list of contents in the left side (icon Chat with PDF). But when I open ‘my library’ (upper right), this page opens but there is nothing in it. If I click ‘load more files’ still now show my content.

It worked well until 2 days ago. Now, its impossible to read papers that I have uploaded.

If I use Safari, everything is okay: I can see the list of contents and the contents. In Firefox, I can see the list, but not the contents.

How can I remove monitor, relay, mozilla vpn from the Account drop down menu. See attached example.

The ONLY reason anyone goes further down this menu is to get to the other tabs on other devices. These things, on especially my super small laptop screen, only get in the way.

Any way to stop showing these in this menu?

I really appreciate your time and help. I understand Mozilla's want to promote these, but come on, get this crap out of the way.

In the last few days, Firefox has stopped remembering tabs that were open when re-opening following Windows re-boot or other closure. This is frustrating. Other browsers (Chrome and Edge) both remember all tabs/windows that were previously opened.

Why has this suddenly started happening and how can it be resolved? I have gone through the advice given 2 years ago on one similar question, and all the configurations are in order.
