We got an alert when opening Firefox on our iMac yesterday suggesting we "refresh" and that bookmarks and saved passwords would not be affected. After the refresh, bookmarks were retained but all passwords wiped out. Further, as we painstakingly looked up or created new passwords on sites and entered them, the usual Firefox alert would come up asking if we wanted to save the new log-in, user name and password on each site, we'd select "yes" and then find none of them saved. Can anyone advise us? We're rebuilding our saved passwords on Chrome now but have had Firefox as out primary browser for over a decade.

Firefox is asking for a password but I dont have one, (using a 2012 imac). I'm locked out of using my computer. Started 3 days ago and I entered 3 false passwords which opened a window allowing me to quit but now it doesnt matter how many false passwords I enter it wont allow me to access my computer.

I've tried everything I could find , to add to my userChrome.css or to change about_config, but to no avail .

Bookmarks in Firefox use ellipsis , is there any way to use them in tabs as well ?

whenever I try to use a theme that defaulted to dark mode in the previous update, it defaults to light mode instead. for some websites this means that it displays in bright white. i need dark mode. even when i set the toolbar colour (which previously controlled dark/light in Firefox Colour) to black it's on light mode. how do I get dark mode back, i hate this. this theme (picture attached) used to be dark mode but now it defaults to light. how do i get dark mode back.

I used to be able to get on Amazon with no problems using Firefox. Lately, the website is all chopped up. Blue words with underlining appears on the pages. I can view Amazon just fine under Safari.

How do I delete a single bookmark? The instructions in your help file do not work. I click on the blue star in the top right corner, hit "Delete bookmark," but the bookmark does not delete. I have tried shutting down Firefox and restarting after giving the delete command, but no dice. The bookmark seems immortal! Using Mac OS 10.13.6.

Please tell me in simple terms how to reload if my Firefox drop down menu does not display this option...which is apparently crucial. Last couple days, two familiar web-sites have asked me to reload. Note: I read the two "help" instructions, both of which suggest clicking (somewhere) on "Customize," then following instructions which these two helpers provide. Problem: Just as drop-down menu for Firefox provides no "Reload" option, it likewise provides no "Customize" option.

I started using Firefox ESR a while ago when I had an older version of Mac OS. Now I am running High Sierra (OS 10.13) and I think I could use the standard release of Firefox, which may have newer features supported. How do I switch to that?

I received an email from mozilla@m.mozilla.org. Is that legit? (I am wondering, why the m.mozilla?) It seemed legit and looked like it, when I clicked forward thanks much I did the offered authorization scan, but then became scared to proceed with the 2 step authorization

Recently, unable to Open Microsoft Outlook email using Firefox 100.0.1 (updated June 10th, 2022). Able to open in Safari. Prior to this incident no problem with opening Outlook.

My firefox did an update today and I can not view many websites in my bookmarks. I tried to manually go to a website and still get the same error show below. An error occurred during a connection to www.newsmax.com. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR Some websites I can view and others not. I did not have this problem till todays update. I also can not view non HTTPS websites. Basically all is not well.

Suggestions.

using Firefox 102.0.1 (64-bit) on a 2010 Mac High Sierra 10.13.6. Clicking on boxes in web forms do not show choice made, both in my medical mychart app, as well as the USPS web app. What gives? Thanks, Stefan Also includes your own web form below for emailing when an answer is provided. How will I know if I'm missing some answers if I can't see the choice I made??
