I bought a new pc and synced firefox with my old pc to transfer all my tabs and accounts. The new pc died within a day and i will have to return it to the manufacturer GMKTEC, the problem i have is all my accounts Ebay, Amazon etc are on it as well as my medical data. Is there something i can do with firefox to stop this information being looked at or used.

TIA

They show how to sync between a laptop and a phone. Thanks, Bill

Recently you have been blocking me from sites. I'm 66 years of age and if I want to go somewhere then surely thats up to me. Can you please take these blocks off. They are HTPPS

Why does Mozilla say insane things like put your passwords in a safe place? Mozilla just today made mine disappear. Can the morons at Mozilla understand the problems this has caused? I am through with sitting before this machine trying to get thru this B S ! Want to help now? Give me my G D password manager back... Safe... what a D joke.

I have hundreds of bookmarks imported from Google Chrome, Safari and Firefox on older computers. Many of the bookmarks are duplicates, and many located in different, misnamed sub-folders should be moved to more relevant folders.

The bookmark manager is not the easiest tool to use for reorganizing bookmarks because the Results Detail section changes its focus each time a bookmark file is dragged to a different folder or sub-folder. This forces the user to bounce back and forth in the Bookmark Manager in attempts to find the sub-folder they cleaning up.

If the contents of the Bookmark Manager could be downloaded as a CSV file or spreadsheet; more query tools could be implemented to reorganize the data. Once that is accomplished; the Bookmark Manager could be purged and the organized data could be reinstalled. That would make the Bookmark Manager operate more efficiently and therefore more quickly.

Transferring bookmarks & backups for passwords is easy and I'm not worried about that. But the about:config settings that I have customized and accreted over years so that nothing beeps, spins, auto-plays, loops, or throbs a tab, are not so straightforward. I'd like to review what files I can save how to make sure I do not lose these, which are the most important things to me about my Firefox installs--keeping the web safe for quiet, nondistracting searches and reading.

Windows 10 Enterprise, managed by my organization, but with just enough admin privileges to customize my Firefox.

when attempting to move Firefox bookmarks to my new computer, I click import data within the Firefox page. The computer asks me to select the file. I have no idea where the bookmarks reside and cannot find a file. What is the procedure to get this done?

bold text I want to recover my account just as it was one week ago. My computer crashed a few days ago and I am having a night mare getting all my accounts reentered. I am a 77 year old senior citizen and some of the instructions are just too complicated for me. I appreciate all your help. I love my account and I am lost without it.

This will be a long question and in 2 parts, so I'll apologize up front.

1. I am running FireFox on my 11-year old MacBook and love it (MacOS Mojave version 10.14.6). However, my printer just crapped out, and my new HP 9120e requires MacOS Big Sur (11.x.x) or later. If I update to that OS, will I still be able to use FireFox? If so, where do I find it (see Question 2, below)?

2. Since my old MacBook is clearly reaching the end of it's life and my Excel and Word apps are also ancient, I am trying to transfer all my stuff onto a "New" MacBook that is running MacOS Monterey version 12.0.1. However, the "New" computer (I will not say "improved") has been a reliability nightmare and I just had it in for service. They wiped my disk clean to install the Monterey OS. So, other than Safari, I have no browser (or anything else for that matter). When I go to the App Store to download FireFox, and don't see it anywhere. Help!

When I opened Firefox today, ALL of my bookmarks were gone. There was a message saying that they couldn't be accessed, and that sometimes securiity software incompatibility is the culprit. I'm also now unable to create any new bookmarks. I have no idea what may have updated, and don't know whether to blame you, Windows/MS, Xfinity, or the McAfee prompt which keeps trying to get me to finish installing something I never intended to install in the first place, but can't get rid of. How do I get browser bookmarks back?????

I have followed all the Restore instructions to get my 1 plus years of bookmaarks back. Manage Bookmarks application will not open or show ther ever where any backed up files. The steps " Manage Bookmarks/Import/Choose File" function never responds or directs me to select a folder. There are two folders on my Desktop that are named Firefox Bookmarks. See attached screenshots.

There was an update today on my PC laptop, I think from FireFox. After the restart, my bookmarks have all disappeared. The instructions to restore them are useless. I go through Menu/Bookmarks/Manage Bookmarks/Import and Backup/Restore/Choose File. THERE ARE NO FILES TO CHOOSE FROM. According to the instructions, there should be some dated entries. Nada.

I tried the Troubleshooting blahblah and that was equally useless.

I'm panicking that I've lost years of carefully organized bookmarks.
