Firefox Quantum 64-bit Not Showing Websites Correctly?

I end up with issues after issues trying to get FIrefox to display websites the same way they do with Chrome. I'll screen shot what I see with my new domain, but this problem isn't particular to my domain. Of course web developers optimize their websites for Chrome, because Google never updates that thing! With Firefox constantly updating, I'm wondering if that causes problems with websites around the world.
So, my new domain is tmblm.org. The 1st PrtScn is how it's supposed to look. The 2nd is the way Firefox shows it. I did call Network Solutions, and he used Firefox Quantum 60.0.2, 64-bit on Windows 7 Professional. It displays correctly. My O.S. is Windows 7 Ultimate. I doubt that is the issue anyway. Also, I'm not showing my tabs, because I don't feel like taking the time to blur out personal bookmarks I have on my toolbar.
The 2nd set of PrtScn's are Huffington Post's website. First one is Chrome (displays comments); second on is Firefox Quantum (won't display comments)! Yes, I have cleared my cache, data, and rebooted my computer. Besides, I never have to clear cache with Chrome for anything to display correctly. I prefer not to use Chrome, because it's a clumsy interface, where some websites have problems. If I have to do a clean-install of Firefox Quantum, how do I make sure all my bookmarks & toolbar entries are saved & restored?

[Solved] Bookmarks sidebar search: clear-search icon disappears when I need it the most

When I open the bookmarks sidebar, the search entry box shows an icon to clear the input. Yet, as soon as I type something in the appropriate input box, this icon dissappears from view and I have to resort to manually using the backspace key to make edits. Not the biggest of deals, I do realize that, but still irritating, as I have loads of bookmarks, hence I use the search facility very often.
Personally I find the 'logic' to be reversed here (but I also sleep during the day and work during the night, so it might just be me...). It just doesn't make much sense: when there's nothing to clear the icon in question is visible, when there is something to clear it's not.
I've tried reversing this behavior via the userChrome.css file without succes:
.textbox-input .textbox-search-clear {
visiblity: collapsed !important;
}
.textbox-input[selected="true"] .textbox-search-clear {
visiblity: visible !important;
}
doesn't change anything, so I guess these are the wrong selectors in this context.
Is there a way to achieve what I'm looking for via this CSS file or do I need to look elsewhere?

This is extremely frustrating. I cannot seem to disable or do anything with "containers" on FireFox.
Here's my story. I belong to an on-line Karaoke website that works with Flash. In order to be heard I have to enable "STEREO MIX" and make it my default communications device. This has been NO problem up until now. For some reason, in the sound mixer, there is a sound item called "firefox Container". The sound from the site "bounces" on that item rather than the Firefox slider. Muting the container only kills the sound.
How do I get rid of the container and get my sound coming through the Firefox icon? I've tried to look for my containers and I have them, but I cannot seem to disable them at all. I've included a pic of my volume mixer. There you can see the container and the Firefox logo but I cannot change the sound to the Firefox.
Thank you so much for any help.

In a spontaneous moment I clicked on what looked like added security to my Yahoo account. I can't remember where or how I found this.
Now my Yahoo account treats me as a new/unknown customer all the time and I have to sign in and retrieve a code from my phone to access my emails from my usual laptop.
I also have acquired and extra logo next to my green security lock in my email - a tracking protection shield with a black line through it.
Can anyone help this technophobic fool?
Many thanks!

Bookmark Backup No Longer Produces .json File!?!?

When I invoke Bookmarks/Show All Bookmarks/Import and Backup/backup... in Firefox 60.0.1, nothing seems to happen. I cannot find any file named bookmarks-yyyy-mm-dd.json (I didn't change the default file name but of course I had to select a directory) anywhere on my computer. Am I doing something stupid?
Last time I did this was 2017-12-20 -- no problems backing up and restoring bookmarks then -- but that was with an older version of Firefox (obviously). FYI I'm running the 64bit version on a 64bit Windows 7 SP1 system. -- jclarkw

I'm pretty sure that what I'm looking for is not currently possible with Firefox 60.
1) Define pinned tabs 2) Close Firefox in any way. 3) Open Firefox 3 a) my pinned tabs are opened (and still pinned) 3 b my other tabs from last time are not opened.
If I open all my tabs from last time, two non ideal things: 1) I must make sure that the last window I close is the one with pinned tabs in it ... 2) All my other tabs from last time open as well.
This behavior is contrary to the text at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pinned-tabs-keep-favorite-websites-open which reads: "Pinned Tabs allow you to always keep your favorite web apps like Facebook, Gmail and Twitter open and just a click away. Pinned Tabs are small, can't be closed accidentally and open automatically when you start Firefox."
Further down it says: "All of the Pinned Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as Pinned Tabs when you start Firefox again." This is not the behavior I am seeing. It's either ALL my tabs come back (with the option enabled "Show your windows and tabs from last time") or NONE of my tabs come back pinned or regular (with either of the other options chosen). There is not an option like "restore only my pinned tabs" or something, which is what I have experienced before as the behavior of these things.
It's clear from reading through this support forum that I'm not alone in being frustrated by this behavior. If pinned tabs are supposed to be persistent (e.g. across closing firefox or reboot), then they should be handled separately from all other tabs in the session restore data.
The only difference I see between pinned tabs and normal tabs is the size, lack of the close button (X), and the blue update dot. NONE of their persistence behavior (or lack thereof) behaves as described on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pinned-tabs-keep-favorite-websites-open.
Any insights are welcome.
Sync: logging into computers six months later?

I have a home laptop (which I consider my 'master computer' that I use every day). At work however, we have a 150 shared laptops that are booked in and out on a daily basis - you never know which one you're going to get. So it could be months before you get the same laptop again.
I currently use Chrome, and have the problem that if I sync my bookmarks to a work computer in January, they may change quite radically on my master computer in six months (especially if - I've taken the time to clean them all up and reorganise them). If I then get the same work laptop again in July, it sends hundreds of old January bookmarks to my master computer, which totally messes up my hard work of keeping them organised. The sync doesn't care about creating duplicates, and doesn't consider the dates bookmarks were added or deleted (ie. If I deleted a bookmark in March, when I login in July it will put the January bookmark back onto my master computer, which makes no sense since it is obvious that the January bookmark is older than the date I deleted it).
So, Chrome sync is dumb and unsophisticated. Is Firefox sync better? Would it solve this problem?
Thanks.
Firefox - flashing tabs & white search screen

Hi I am having a few issues with Firefox.
1. when I have more than ~10 tabs open (pinned and/or open), the next tab I open causes the 'unpinned' tabs to start flashing/strobing. This has been happening since upgrading to Quantum and is still happening with the latest version (60.0.1) that I have just downloaded.
2. since downloading 60.0.1, I can only do I search and then any adding tabs to do a new search or refreshing an existing tab, results in a white Firefox page with the status bar showing that it's trying to refresh. The only way to overcome this is to close and re-open Firefox (it remembers the search I was trying to do and actually executes properly).
3. I tried logging a problem in an unrelated forum. Swapping between html and preview view cleared the screen ie - I lost all the text.
How do I fix these issues?
Thanks

Using Win 10. I have used Firefox for probably more than 10 years. I have used Juno e-mail on web for more or less the same amount of time. I have had problems in the past with the program but have been able to work them out with clean-up, etc. This time, I have not been able to get it worked out. The problem is that when I take an action, like open an e-mail or delete e-mails, it indicates "loading" and does not do anything more. The problem has gotten increasingly serious. At first, I could do some minor things and It would work at least for a time. Then it would work less before having to do something. I installed Opera and at first did not have any problem with it. Later, it started doing the same thing. It got where the further I could get on the e-mail was load the first page. Sometimes not even that. I have not had problem with any other page. I started using Edge and so far have not had any problem using it fot the Juno. I have gone through all the steps of deleting history, cookies, etc., refreshing Firefox, safe mode, and lastly uninstalling and reinstalling. Any ideas?

I've read in some other question here that when you have "Show your windows and tabs from last time" selected you won't be shown a warning when you close the browser. I don't think such behavior is a good idea. I often have many tabs open. Some have half-filled forms, others - different interactive features that I use. When I accidentally push Cmd+Q - it's very close to Cmd+W - everything is gone. The fact that tabs get reloaded on the next start doesn't help me much. As an example, in the times when I used Chrome, it always asked whether I was sure I wanted to close the browser if "Warn before quitting" option was selected disregarding whether it restored open tabs upon restart or not. Could you please add an option or make some of the current ones always warn me when I push Cmd+Q having several open tabs?
