The Guardian website is my start page. Today when I open it up I notice that the scroll bar disappears immediately when the page is loaded. The arrow keys don't work, or the mouse wheel. All other pages are fine - and the Guardian page itself is fine when I use Chrome. It only happens on Firefox, and only today. I can fine no mention of the problem on the web. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

After an update or unexpected shutdown, my Firefox browsers window on iMac vanish. They show in the taskbar if I had them minimized. I click them, they pop up, and then disappear. Can anyone help me restore them? TIA.

Hi

Question I am redoing my computer and have considered restarting firefox at the same time being I have been on the same profile for ages and figured might be worth just restarting with a new profile.

Now I know I can import bookmarks and such into the new profile after backing them up of course.

Question I have regards passwords and log ins.

I remember some time back I had lost some files including these and was able to restore them from an old back up of the profile. I think it was 2 files.

Are these files profile specific or can they be backed up on this profile and then copied into a new profile and work OK??

Or I just saw EXPORT LOGINS if I use this will it back up all my logins and then allot me to import them into the new profile like the bookmarks back up?

Thanks

I have recently made Firefox my browser on PC Windows 10 replacing Google Chrome. Everything works fine except my Turkish online bank account. I can access my account but when when I open a page the headings are all there but no details of my accounts. I can access my UK bank account with all details available. I have been back to Google Chrome and had no problems.

Hi, i absolutely do-not-like & do-not-approve that Mozilla Dev Network MDN https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/ is FORCING/COERCING us/users TO GAIN (READ+WRITE OR ANY-OTHER) ACCESS INTO MY/USER'S GITHUB OR GOOGLE ACCOUNT to login into MOZILLA MDN site. This is clear Anti-privacy & Anti-Security activity, VIOLATION of PRIVACY-RIGHTS.

Any users can create an account in Mozilla here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/accounts/

So WHY MDN does not allow to use that to login/access into MDN site ?! and instead FORCING users to use GitHub/Google account access based login ?

Why should i give "MOZILLA", a 3rd-party, VARIOUS-TYPES-OF-ACCESS into my Google/GitHub account ? !! !! !! !! just to view documents from Mozilla developer network site, Or to get Firefox Dev Tools, etc, etc !!

my accounts are used for my control over my projects & to have my control over my private data/emails. even a tiny moment of access into any such private account means PRIVACY is LOST, & NOT-PRIVATE anymore.

Mozilla can send a code into my email & i/user can post that code to Mozilla, to prove i'm/user-is the owner of the email-adrs ... and for entire world , this type of proof is sufficient (though not perfect).

So WHY MOZILLA IS NOT FIXING THIS/THESE ISSUES ?

If Mozilla need to send notification to me, it can use my email-address. if Mozilla needs to add/notify in GitHub in my projects, then it can use its own GitHub account to do so with specific direct MENTION to user(by using user's github-ID) , or it can send me/user specific code over email that i or a user can add myself/themselves. A user can also give Mozilla-bot a membership in their Github project to publish, or notify something. etc. etc. there is always alternative & PRIVACY-RESPECTING & better-security-practice solutions , w/o giving/having FULL-or-PARTIAL access into someone's GitHub/Google account.

My computer shut down and with it went one tab. When I next opened firefox, onetab was not working at all. The icon was gone, everything was gone. I had to reset firefox completely and add all add ons again to get it working at all. I backed everything up before doing this. I have a tab hoarding problem and lost links to around 5000 tabs. I've got the previous session/old firefox data saved externally, plus old profiles. Is there any way to get my lost tabs back?

TLDR I need to extract my one tab data from my previous firefox folder which is saved separately. Please help.

Hi. A forum which I joined years ago,all of a sudden i cannot view any images i post,and all the images i have ever posted there are not viewable with Firefox.Cant view anyone elses recent posted images either ,and it started happening a few days ago.Could an addon be the cause because i have had the same ones i have always had.

So, I want to run Firefox from the command line withoug address bar and in a new window. I found that I can enable ssb and try it with: firefox -ssb http://127.0.0.1:6680/ This doesn't work, so I tried: firefox -ssb -url http://127.0.0.1:6680/ This opens it, not in a new window but in a new tab of an already existing session, and the ssb argument doesn't seem to work. Then, I tried: firefox -new-window http://127.0.0.1:6680/ This does work but again, there's still the address bar. The -ssb argument works with websites like google.com etc. but not local sites like the address I mentioned there. What do I do?

I paid Firefox $28 for unmarked videos. Now the mark, the stamp in the corner of the video, is back. I would like my money back or the non-stamped videos back. Who do I see about that?

For some reason my banking statements don't open. Also, some other pdf's won't open either. I think this started with FF79 and now on FF80.0.1. I was hoping the bug would be fixed but it obviously hasn't. My settings have always been the same for years without any problems. I accused my bank of not keeping up with FF but after other pdf's weren't opening, then I realised (as my bank did) that it's a bug in FF. I use Acrobat Reader as my default and I've tried everything others have tried on this forum. I've only ever used FF but I reluctantly used Edge and it works. Will FF fix this problem as I don't wish to use another browser? Not sure what FF did with the new updates but it has caused problems.

Hi, I have had a very bad change in my computer, where my system was removed. I could not get it back and was helped to get some things back. In my computer, many things are very different to view things, so makes anything I can do is missing I need to have my Bookmarks, lost on the 16th. They will help me a great deal. Is there anyway to get my original Bookmarks List?

A Lil More; I had the song went off line on iTunes.  I found something that said it would fix that.  Loaded it and let it go, when I came back 2 hours ago.  All my programs were deleted.  If I could get that back, that would even be better.  Thanks so much.  Rene

hey there folks :) so I got the email about your new extension RegretsReporter...I think it's a phenomenal project so I have of course intalled the extension on chrome. I haven't found the recommendation on Youtube problematic it's more about the ads that they recommend for me (not the ones that I have to view in order to see a video). Rather the one's they display just below the video when viewing can the RegretsReporter also deal with those?

Have tried everything i know but to no avail. The Wifi with a new modem for 2 months worked great but suddenly 5 days ago it became terrible with frequent dropouts off/on.

When I initiate a search in Firefox, why do I get transferred from Mozilla to Yahoo to execute the search, and how can that be corrected? This happens whether my entry is in the address bar or the search bar. Thx, Doug

when searching in the address bar at the top, the links appear to the right, misaligned because of the page titles

for me, the link is what i use to figure out which page i want, while the title is really hard to figure it out, having the link on the left would make it alot easier and faster to figure out which to click

(in the upload, the top one is firefox, the bottom is chromium, i need the order chromium uses)
