I am moving from an old (2013) Dell PC to a brand new Windows 11 machine. All of my passwords, credit card numbers, contact info and log-in information for websites are stored in Firefox. I would like to preserve those settings when I upgrade to my new computer and do not know how to do that. Please advise.

Hello All -

Over the years I have saved many bookmarks across several different devices. Therefore the bookmarks vary between devices. Is there any way that I can tidy up my bookmarks, deleting many of them, on my main machine and then have all the other devices Synch to that list only?

I have tried deleting ALL the bookmarks on the "subsidiary" devices and then synched them but that didn't work. I think I'm asking whether one device can be made the "master" for all the others to Synch to that one and none of the others.

Hope that's reasonably clear.

Thanks,

Ian.

When I click on the Firefox icon on my desktop to open it, it takes me to a blank page with a url type box toward the top of the screen with the word "Search" in the box. It is nonfunctional. I tried reloading Firefox, but I don't think it installed completely. What do I do to get Firefox to work properly?

Hi all,

ISSUE In the Bookmarks sidebar, bookmarks and folders can be erroneously moved or even deleted and get lost permanently.

SOLUTION 1. Provide an option to confirm bookmarks move/delete and folders move/delete. 2. When a bookmark or a folder is moved/deleted provide a popup window to alert the user which could just in case Undo the action.

FINAL NOTES Yesterday I Iost the Coaching folder which has been updated since 2011. I have lost 2 years of my life trembling. Eventually I have been able to find it in one of mine >200 folders. It has been moved erroneously.

Thanks

Somehow my bookmarks and passwords with Firefox were lost and I accidentally replaced them with some from Microsoft Edge. Can I get the originals I had with Firefox back somehow?

Hello,

I can't see the livesteams on Clawcrazy.

It was working fine yesterday, I can see them on chrome from my pc and another device with Firefox can see them.

I have tried disabling my add-ons, clearing the cache, updating the gpu, making a new Firefox profile, turning enhanced tracking protection off and a private browser.

In each attempt I've always restarted Firefox and restarted my pc 2 times.

I'm out of idea's now.

I have a screenshot of the console and its errors.

would really appreciate the help.

I asked this question before and in response to a request upload the crash reports. But have heard nothing since. This is now happening daily. PLEASE, Mozilla, help me (and NBTW I make reg gifts in response to your appeals).

My all PhD thesis , all data there and I didn't remember any passwords. What to do now. I am very much depressed please help me out

Whenever I attempt to authenticate with Google using a passkey, Firefox (142.0.1) on macOS (15.6.1) hangs and freezes the process. In Activity Monitor, when I force kill a webauthn process for Firefox, the browser frees up, and I can proceed as long as I don't use a passkey.

This freezing is also described in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/ee/questions/1498660, but they didn't look into running processes. I can also authenticate to Google using Safari, but that's not a solution.

I've deleted my passkeys in Google, and now everything works, but that's not a permanent solution. Is it Firefox, Mac, Google, or all three?

Firefox updated on my computer yesterday, and now all my bookmarks are missing. How do I find and restore them? I am not a computer geek, so the explanation needs to be like to a person who has never seen a computer before.

Hello there, I usually use Firefox as my browser to access my Gmail account. For some reason, I am not able to open up gmail. I put in gmail and it shows in the search bar the following informaiton--mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox . NOthing else happens, no gmail account opens up. Please help.

I have a wildcard certificate issued by Sectigo. The certificate was provided as a .p7b. I have converted it into a .cer, a .pfx, a .pem file and attempted to install it in the firefox certificate store in my windows 10 system. I choose 'import' and point to the .pfx file. It appears that it is working as I do not get any errors, but the certificate is nowhere to be found. I have checked all of the certificate choices in the certificate manager. I used mmc to see if the certificate was in the trusted root certification authority. It's not there. I finally installed the certificate successfully in the trusted root certification authority using mmc, hoping that that would allow me to install it successfully in the firefox certificate store, but I get the same results. I have run Firefox as an administrator, same results. I have googled over and over with the same results, i.e. it appears that the certificate is not installed.

How can I get this CA Certificate installed in the firefox certificate store.

I did a new Windows 10 install yesterday. I then added my favourite apps.

When I got Firefox installed, adjusted the settings and added my extensions (most of which I've used for years), I found a glitch.

The icons for AdBlocker Ultimate and LastPass do not show up in the Customize Toolbar menu. I keep both of these on my toolbar in the past.

I've tried restarting Firefox several times and, finally, tried running it in Troubleshoot Mode. The last, it seems, doesn't allow the use of extension.

So ... please help!

Hi, just to say, sorry, I’m an absolute idiot, I don’t understand tech at all. I have a VPN, privacy badger and ublock origin. These issues continue whether these three things are turned off or not, so I believe it must be to do with my Firefox settings.

Everything was fine, but now all of the sudden, certain elements of pages will not load.

So for example, today I tried to go to Gizmodo and look at a Star Trek page. Cool. https://gizmodo.com/star-trek-day-announcements-include-a-lego-collaboration-and-a-youtube-kids-series-2000655142

This is not the only site, just an example.

Clicked the comment button to see what people are saying. It won’t load the comments. The comments are completely blocked. They don't exist. When I try to look at the comments, it just shows me another part of the webpage, can't even see the comments.

Thought it was just this site, but then today I was on a plastic surgeon site in Europe to make a payment and it wouldn’t load the payment page.

I tried turning off badger and unblock to make the payment, and it didn’t work.

Honestly I really have no idea what the problem is, I know I’m doing something stupid but I don’t know what it is or how to figure out.

Any help on figuring out what’s going on or where the hiccups for these might be would be welcome.

Thank you!

I have an extension I use on my Raspberry Pi media box which locks youtube videos to a selected resolution. On the Pi, this is very useful, as it wants to automatically change to lower resolutions when the resolution is set to "auto". However, on my desktop, this extension causes youtube to not respond to the spacebar properly (it requires two presses to change the pause state). These two browsers are both signed in to the same profile, so when I enable the extension for the Pi, it enables it on my desktop, and when I disable it on the desktop, it disables it on the Pi. Is there any way to have the extension enabled on one browser and disabled on another without using separate profiles? desktop: windows 10, firefox 142.0.1 Pi: raspbian, firefox 141.0
