Firefox Community Forum

On migrating my apps, etc into new MacBook, my foxfire/focus did not migrate. do I need to download the app on my new device or can I somehow use my existing account. and how?

I would like to ask you for supplementing system requirements for Firefox on Linux machines presented on pages like this, https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/133.0/system-requirements/ All the requirements shown for Firefox 133 on this page are satisfied in my Linux Fedora 20 with versions of the required libraries updated but Firefox cannot start GUI. As this concerns all Firefox versions newer than Firefox 95 that has the same requirements concerning Linux system and is functional in my system I have filed a bug report to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1938497 Almost immediately I have seen the comment below my report, "Fedora 20 saw its end of life 114 months ago. Nobody cares about supporting Fedora 20 anymore." with status RESOLVED WONTFIX that means, "The problem described is a bug which will never be fixed." This means that some other requirements exist whence maybe a minimal number of Linux distribution should be noted as required for new Firefox versions to work. For "older" Linux users this would save them a lot of time.

Hello, I am using linux mint. Sometimes when I use the browser is youtube video flies and I play for example a game then I see sometimes some squares on the firefox screen. It also happens that when I use firefox on two monitors I will see such squares. Recently I used with virtualbox firefox it is a virtual machine was running and separately the browser and the computer crashed. I do not know how to collect possible logs that something like this happened, these squares.

The setting "Open links in tabs instead of new windows" and middlemouse.openNewWindow in about:config will not fix this issue: when using middle mouse on the bookmarks in the bookmarks bar, it will automatically switch the foreground tab to the new opened bookmark which is not great. The combination of the previously 2 mentioned settings will allow hyperlinks and such to work fine, but not on bookmarks. this makes it tedious when I wanna just have something ready in the background.

I got a notification/ email of an unauthorized access to my account. I changed the password, and set up TFA. The unknown user logged on the account was then gone. I have passwords saved from sites i visit, including sensitive ones. Could my list of passwords have been copied? How am i protected?

As title. Installed the latest update as soon as i came out. I get the "Welcome to Firefox" tab and the 2nd tab "Firefox Privacy Notice" opened.

The 1st "Welcome" tab, has the box and buttons asking me to import old setting and all that jazz. I have down in quiet a few times and nothing is taken root. I have went through the process of installing all my old addons and extensions, I am not sure how many times, as I use them every time I open my browser to watch Twitch or Youtube, Beyond 20, and what have you. And of course it keeps resetting my toolbar and the bookmarks and settings on my homepage.

I thought at first, it might be buggy and after a day or two it would get fixed an updated. But alas, nothing thus far and this is forcing me to use other craptastic browsers I rather not even have installed on my system.

I have refreshed Firefox a time or two, I uninstalled and reinstalled, but I am afraid to completely wipe it out, as I do not want to lose my bookmarks, passwords, and other saved information, that I probably should not have saved but I do because my memory is "teh suck".

I would appreciate any insight on how tor resolve this issue.

Thanks!

I was setting up a new (desktop) device with sync, and was shocked to realize, that some items are missing from the passwords and settings. It seams like we are in a state of some months in the past. I have checked the about:sync-log and I see a lot of lines like this "WARN DATA LOSS: Both local and remote changes to record".

How is this possible? Can I do something to restore my latest data?

Thanks!

I've been getting emails from cnet.com for years, now when I click on a link in the email I get a blank webpage with this message "Can't validate the authenticity of this link". The link opens in Chrome.

How can I get back to my previous performance on my laptop.? I've used the Task manager, permissions and other things. system restore is not good for me. going back to a previous date doesn't help. the troubleshooter wont work and task manager won't come up anymore. I've taken ownership of my computer several times. I've denied administrator permission as well as the trusted installer. They just come back the next day and take it back. Please advise what to do. I see you think it might have something to do with my antivirus program, Microsoft Defender. should I uninstall it and get another one. I just installed Malwareytes. Will that help? Thank you.

I set a theme with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../firefox-color/(Firefox Color), I tried changing the theme in settings to light or dark but neither work. I'm wondering if there are other ways to do so in Firefox that I could try. I'm on zen browser which is why it may not have worked.
