I just downloaded the latest version of Mozilla and all of my bookmarks are gone! This has never ever happened to me before when I would update Mozilla. Where are my bookmarks? I am not happy with the deletion of my bookmarks. Am I tough out of luck or is there some magical way to restore the bookmarks that the update removed? Help!!! Thank you, Nadine

Since downloading the latest version, the browser stops functioning after the first site. It won't even allow me to quit, without the 'force quit'. Plus, while in the first site (my local newspaper) it stops recognising key strokes and mouse clicks. In fact, everything stops working.

I'm sending this through Chrome.

Any fixes?

Thanks, Stan Nikolic

We'll soon be using a core program in are organization that works better on Firefox than in IE. However, We are at a point where Java 7u67 is the supported version of Java. Having installed Mozilla Firefox v.33.1.1 I find that it is rejecting Java 7u67 for security reasons. Is there a way to allow the use of 7.67 with our core application?

I had Firefox and Thunderbird installed the D drive. The D drive died. I try to reinstall on the C drive and it installs but when run says that the profile is not available (same for both programs). I have deleted all reference to mozilla in user>appdata and the same happens. Tried running "firefox -p", with the same resulting message. Back to Opera?

When I'm working or watching videos on YouTube, for example, I keep getting this damn popup. "A recommended security and stability update is available, but you do not have the system permissions required to install it. Please contact your system administrator, or try again from an account that has permission to install software on this computer. You can always get the latest version at; https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/". I'm using a user account, not the Administrator account. I'm fed up with these popups appearing in the middle of my screen when in the middle of work or trying to relax when I'm watching a video. Such popups are supposed to go to desktop not in my face when I'm in the middle of something. How do I stop it?

I've had a lot of crashes, some just firefox, some the whole computer. In process of migrating to new machine so wasn't overly concerned. But after a restart today, I found I could not get firefox to open at all. After finding the system searching for firefox.com, I checked program files\mozilla firefox and firefox.exe is not there. A search showed it not to be anywhere. Not ready to stop using this machine just yet. Any way to get firefox.exe reloaded without losing all my related stuff??

These problems started when upgraded to version 36. Each time there were newer upgrades while still in version 36, for example; when I check for a newer version in Help/About/check for updates, there have been 4 sub-upgrades 36.0.1, 36.0.2, 36.0.3, 36.0.4.

When I was asked to restart after it downloaded the upgrades, it closes my browser and then about 30 seconds later, the crash reporter comes up. This never happened before and is getting to be a concern at this point.

I want to play a game called tanki online on Mozilla but when i try and enter the game its says that i need adobe flash player 10.0.22.87 or higher. it shows a link that directs me to the download and i download without a problem, then when i go back on it, it says the same thing that i have to download it again. I have tried restarting my device. The first timeni tried downloading it and playing the game it worked but then 2 days later it said that i have to download. i hope you can help. thanks

The "OpenH264 video codec" provided by Cisco is not being installed on any of the PCs in our company. And we need to have them installed... I've tried to install manually without any sucess and also tried the other solution I saw online. None of them worked for me. How could I fix this issue?

Pop up window continually appears telling me that the Firefox browsing protection is not installed. When I try the install now I am told that Firefox needs to restart to complete the installation. When FFox restarts the same warning reappears and this always happens. I am using TalkTalk as my providor and when I check the browsing protection here it warns me that the Firefox is not installed but when I now try to install it the same routine occurs about restarting FFox and it does not install. Can I install it or if not prevent this stupid warning appearing all of the time?

Long term ff user, booted PC and firefox was gone, not able to open from desktop icon. Attempted re-install from mozilla.org, never got past entering email on Download page!!!!

Search for the addon on mozilla addons.

Locate UBlock Origin and click install. The popup is displayed to 'accept' permissions. Click accept and nothing happens. In the addons 'extensions' tab, the ublock entry row shows, but it never starts to download (and therefore never installs).

Tried to do it by saving the xpi to local and installing from there, but exactly same thing occurs.

Firefox 60.x ESR on Linux (slackware).

Is there anything else I might try please ?

I have been running Firefox for a number of years but uninstalled the programme last week as there seemed to be some problems with the system. I then tried to down load the current version. Every time I press the green download tab on the Firefox page a small pop up box at the bottom of the page asks if I want to save the file and when I say yes it then tries to download but then advises that the file can't be downloaded. This has happened about twelve times over the last three days. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and am having to use Internet Explorer to access the Fire Fox Web Page

I initially installed FireFox because supposedly it allows me to run Sky Go which sadly Chrome no longer does. When I did so, I thought it would be wise to allow it to import my bookmarks etc. However, since I was not able to run Sky Go, they suggested that I unistall FireFox and reinstall it without any imports, this I have now tried twice without success to do; hence this question. All help gratefully received and greatly appreciated.

Using MacBook Pro, 15", early 2008, 2.4G Intel core 2 duo, 4G ram. Software update asks to update Firefox 34.0 beta7 every day. If I update, it just asks me to do it again. It has done this through the last several Beta updates. It's a bit disconcerting, since the updates are supposedly for security and stability. Let me put the question in another way: how many times do I have to ignore the update request before it quits asking? This is all causing me to regret making Firefox my default browser, especially since Safari has been improved so much.

i have tried over and over to update my flashplayer but it wont update,i have goe to the adobe site and downloaded it several times but it still says im not up to date. im on linux cinnamon mint 17

Under Customize Firefox there are tools or features that i installed to try, then uninstalled them but the icons for them are still listed. How can I get rid of them?

Additionally, I cannot create new bookmarks, nor is a history created (or my old history shown) when I navigate to pages. I have the .jsonlz4 file that I want to use as the backup (as per several other answered questions), but I cannot figure out how to solve this problem. Please help.

After every update I have to re setup my setting/homepage/how it works & Visual shopper popups I can not remove = me done with Firefox. Most time my add ons do not work with new version. All this + the large memory allocation Firefox needs does not make it worth my time. I was going to use Firefox on my phone & laptop OS, not now!
