Firefox Community Forum

Hi Team , I am using my firefox browser profile logged in with "[edited from public] @tothenew.com" . Today when i open browser and got to know my account has been logged out while trying to sign in again to my profile it required to get authentication code sent on mail id but i had lost that mail id . so could you please help me to gain acces to that profile i have bookmark some important document on this .

I was using my account for sync my bookmarks, but i hope that was saved in my phone. After check CCleaner deleted all from my laptop, i realize that was also deleted from my mobile. ¿How i can recover all my bookmarks that was sync in my account?

Reader view doesn't work on many Lifehacker pages/articles. Can something be done to make it work on those pages? Here's an example:

Hello, thanks for any help.

I am trying to initiate a Mozilla scan on my iPhone, where Firefox is installed. iOS is 18.7.2.

I begin my login to my Mozilla account, and then in the next window, Firefox (correctly) calls for my 6 digit code from my Authenticator.

BUT, when I "leave" the Firefox page, to go fetch the code, Firefox keeps opening a new webpage, and I lose the page where I would enter the 6 digit code.

I had the WSJ.com as my homepage, and changed this back to the Firefox homepage. This did not solve the problem

I'm exhausted. I'm not a techie, but not a newbie either (after many years).

Hello,

As the title implies, Firefox has been super annoying to use these past few days after moving a tab. I shift tabs around a lot to keep them organized, yet for the first time ever, shifting a tab has caused a permanent glitch on Firefox.

The preexisting workarounds are to try moving a tab to "unfreeze" the address bar and toolbar, or to move the window to another monitor and letting the issue fix itself, but both options have not done anything.

Additionally, as shown in the image attached, the "moved" tab winds up being a floating tab that is unclickable and floats "above" the other tabs. That tab can be accessed only through the CMND + tab option, which is also another inconvenience.

Really hoping the community has a solve because I transferred from Google Chrome due to Ublock becoming obsolete on that browser, and I would prefer not having to find another browser. Thank you!

After most recent update all my bookmarks and passwords disappeared and I cannot seem to recover them. This is extremely frustrating. Has anyone else had this happen? I tried using the recovery process but it did not work.

While I'm using Firefox, I try to go to a new website and Firefox says that it's installing a new version and I need to stop what I'm doing and restart. When Firefox restarts, it forces me to create a new profile and I've lost everything I had before.

This happens two or three times a day.

I'm using the AI Chatbots plugin in the sidebar and I'm trying to log into Claude, but the plugin keeps asking for a verification code and Anthropic only sends a magic link email which doesn't work in this situation.

I have used the site campspot.com for years. Suddenly I cannot get into it and comes up with a 403 error. I am able to get into this site using Chrome so it seems that the problem is with Firefox.

I've been using "unload tab" feature in the right click menu a lot, because my device is slow and I like to keep tabs open. (Thank you so much for adding it!) I love that it makes tabs that I unload manually have grey icons, this is super helpful for keeping track of which tabs are processing and which aren't Can you change it or make a setting so that tabs that are not loaded yet (tabs opened by by the "restore tabs when reopening browser" setting for example) are also grey? It would help me keep track of which tabs are loaded and when. In other words, right now it's possible for a tab to have a color icon when it's not loaded, and I want to make that impossible, so I can keep track better.

Hello. I am using Linux Mint 21.3 cinnamon and Firefox 144.0.2 When I use Google maps and the yellow small pointer (cartoon) to go on a specific street, the window come black when shifting to street view. My only extension is disabled, hardware acceleration unchecked, cache cleared and cookies cleared. I have made fresh install and nothing help. Troubleshooting mode allow street view to work fine but normal mode don't work. Google chrome work good. Chromium work good. And finally, Firefox work ok on my Linux mint LMDE 6.

Any idea where to go to solve this issue?

Thanks for your support

Bookmarks open in the same tab, as they should. But history choices / sites from the browser history always open in a new tab far away from where I'm at the moment.

How can I set it to open in same tab, as the bookmarks? Open in a new tab next to the current tab would also work.

Hi, after latest update just now, the browsers uses up to 45gb of ram within a few minutes! Not sure what it is, I am on MACOS Sequia Version 15.6.1 (24G90) macbook pro M1

Hi -- I'm getting quite a few page crashes that seem mostly tied to YouTube, although not exclusively. I only recently swapped over to Firefox from Chrome because I was having similar crashing issues with that browser as well. This is after a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro and a number of different benchmark tests (no known issues with CPU, GPU, or RAM).

Since there are so many reports that all seem different, could someone help troubleshoot? I really can't tell if it's a browser problem, maybe something with my MOBO or PSU or other hardware.

I'm having trouble opening urls in a private window from the command line on Windows 11.

Firefox version: 144.0.2

Starting a new private window works fine with "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private-window

But doing: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private-window "https://www.google.com"

just opens the link in the last selected window if the last window selected is non private it just opens the link there instead of a new or existing private window

I have also tried with no success: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private "https://www.google.com"

(not the first time) Mozilla closed all my open tabs... Well, maybe she was sick of the number of them... However, from the magazine, "recently closed tabs" are not restored, even though there is such a function.... And also - I use exclusively portable versions of the fox... When I click on the link, somewhere, in Telegram or on... dating site (joke), they open them, not my beautiful chanterelle, but some faceless dog, that is, firefox, absolutely clean, without themes, without extensions, without bookmarks... Why is it happening?
