Firefox-Hilfeforum

When newest FF version opens, it cannot see any of the data that is in each of my three older profiles. I've switched to each one and each one appears empty with the new version. Is there some new step to take in this version when switching profiles? How to bring an older version of Firefox and older profiles from Backup to replace what's now unworkable... and regain my important data? Thank you for your timely, much needed help.

Hello,

IS there any plan for TLS to go away with any upcoming release? Is there away to sign up for release notes to come to your inbox in advance?

thank you, Amanda

I'm trying to migrate my Firefox application and all of its associated data from my old computer (Windows 7) to my new computer (Windows 10). I copied my Mozilla folder from my old computer onto a flash drive. Then on my new computer, I executed the application from the flash drive, but it doesn't have my associated data from my old computer. What should I have done?

I updated to version 99.0.1 but it keeps on going back to 98.0.2. Things I had tried:

• Uninstall and reinstall Firefox
• Refresh in about:support
• Use a new profile

I think it is happening daily around the same time. Suddenly my pages in Firefox will stop loading. Then I need to close and reopen it. And then it will prompt me to start with a new profile because I am using an older version. On check, my Firefox had been reverted to version 98.0.2. Then I have to update and then only I can change back the profile.

Every week, for work, I need to download at least one large video file from Microsoft OneDrive and then upload it to YouTube. (These are MP4s in the range of 200 - 800 MB.) For the last couple of months, maybe longer, the download keeps failing in Firefox. When I switch to Chrome, the same MP4 downloads with no problem.

Any idea what might be going on? Usually the file starts downloading just fine; I see the bar gradually filling up in the notification area, but then it suddenly stops and says "Failed." If I retry, the same thing just happens again.

I'm not using any kind of download manager (that I'm aware of), just relying on Firefox's default download behavior when I click on the "Download" link on the OneDrive web page (sample URL: https://olucdenver-my.sharepoint.com/personal/YADA_YADA/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=LONG_QUERY_STRING_HERE).

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

I have just freshly installed a windows 7 on my computer which I have some old programs which won't run on windows 10. I am trying to download firefox with windows explorer which comes with windows 7. It seems I can not download anything. I try to download the firefox I get a message, The security certificate presented by this website has expired or is not yet valid. I downloaded once the firefox installer but in the middle of the installation I get a message OOPs something went wrong and it won't install. what is going on?

I lost my arrows on my scrollbar again after an update early last month. I tried adding lines to the gtk.css config files with no success unlike I've been successful doing in the past. It appears they are gone forever unless I can find another way to get them back. I noticed that the scrollbar arrows are gone on only Firefox and Thunderbird. As mentioned, this has happened in the past after some updates but in the past I was able to edit the gtk.css files in both gtk-2.0 and gtk-3.0 to get them back. Is there anything else I can try. I'm using the latest version of Ubuntu (Pop OS to be specific) and the arrows to the scrollbars disappeared around April 2nd for both Firefox and Thunderbird. I didn't notice any other applications where the arrows to the scrollbars disappeared. Is there something else I can try and a way to prevent this from happening in the future. This seems to be a common problem that happens every time there is an update.

Hackers will be very happy now that Firefox automatically download their malware and backdoors. Thanks to Firefox, hackers will be able to infect millions of world computers and install ransomware and make havoc i financial, health, and other industries. Firefox will forever be praised by cybercriminals of the world.

'trying to sign on to zoom successfully, then once in I get a notification saying I need to download the lastest version, Ive tried 6 times bianary file and then nothing happens '

So Firefox did an auto-update a few days ago, and when I opened the browser EVERYTHING was gone. Passwords, bookmarks, etc.

I've managed to get the old bookmarks moved over, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the old passwords back. The old data is in a folder on my desktop, do I just copy and paste the login and key 4 files from that folder to the new folder?

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, I'm a pleb and this is the first time I've experienced this. :(

Why is firefox automatically downloading strange files I've never seen before? (MEUIVFJ-.htm and 3tHMwYhc) They look a little untrustworthy. My download dropdown suddenly showed me that one had been downloaded, and then a while later the other one was downloaded. Are these actual Mozilla files? Or are they some kind of scam/trojan/spyware? I just realized that two were downloaded last month as well.
