I am dismayed to see firefox has changed my ip config on my netgear routeer from the defaukt 168. to a 10.0... they have also made it so I can not log into my router the continue button is grayed out on the admin log in page. Any thoughts on how and why and what I can do to fix this?

I refreshed Firefox. It claimed I would not lose all my bookmarks. They have all disappeared. I am old and not technical. This is a disaster. What can I do?

I lost all my bookmarks despite the Firefox refresh saying all bookmarks, etc would be saved. Also, the appearance of the page was greatly simplified and I couldn't locate things/icons I had used for years with Firefox, and didn't know how to use the new page.
I think Mozilla should make clear to none technical older users like me that when you refresh: everything will change and you may lose bookmarks accumulated over years, etc. There is no way I would have refreshed if they had made that clear.
I tried the help pages but that led me to pages I didn't understand or couldn't find what they said I would find.
Amongst other things, how do I (simply) get all my bookmarks back?
Does this refresh mean I have lost other things too??
Thank you, John

Citibank uses Adobe Flash in conjunction with a popup window for select services. When confronted with this prompt (option bar to: always open popups for this site/never open/open current window..., I mistakenly (?) clicked the 'never' option. This has resulted in my inability to avail myself of certain services, inasmuch as I no longer see the option bar. Attempted fixes include: . confirm in about:config popup message (ShowMessage) is 'true' . adding Citibank site to blocker 'exceptions' . unchecking 'block popup windows' in permissions
My aim is to restore popup window prompting where applicable, and/or the 'Options' notification bar, blocked by me due to click of wrong option. Can you help?

Hi FIrefox team, I have a Windows 10 display computer system that is switched on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It uses multiple Firefox windows to display charts and images, 10 windows in total.
Every morning, I come in to office and discover that most of the Firefox windows are displaying the "Gah! Something crashed." message. It gives a convenient blue button to reload all the tabs, but I would like to find out what is causing the crash and prevent crashes in the first place.
Here is a list of my submitted crash reports: bp-c5d9f2c2-5bc6-41de-bddd-7c0200190118 bp-bf25e5a0-cad1-4074-8ddf-929b10190118 bp-5674a715-89c3-4640-8047-73acb0190118 bp-442bc27e-1060-44e1-bb76-04aaa0190118 bp-20d258a7-7024-4598-871b-1462b0190118 bp-df21407f-8e9c-497f-a5da-1b3b40190118 bp-2a1bfd31-ba3b-4fa9-85dc-5b6330190118 bp-1c94d311-0d2c-40d1-b8d3-98ad40190118 bp-dad18dc2-80cd-4c09-911f-cfc2e0190118 bp-0b9f5eb9-9296-435a-a81e-4dca50190118 bp-8550c9ad-fc92-4fed-b18f-b08ef0190118 bp-b804dffd-357c-4cd0-8775-802240190118 bp-f0cbc689-173a-4985-9e2c-533b40190118 bp-53a5b4a9-cbaa-4acb-9e2d-5d3730190118 bp-444ace91-f119-4b07-abe3-52aa90190118 bp-91f59963-c384-40a8-bda0-3742d0190118 bp-ef79359b-d874-4fdc-a13f-2f8bc0190118 bp-41e45dec-df7e-426f-9ce5-79ede0190118 bp-0b6cb5b4-63ee-4961-a932-26d110190118 bp-8f1a7b0c-dae5-4267-a429-090cc0190118 bp-f926a9f2-c18b-498e-9124-c5d610190118 bp-8fdfd938-2455-4e35-a2ff-6fb390190118 bp-0d1d06d6-6b02-4120-993c-7855c0190118 bp-8216efb6-cfd6-4a3a-99a6-e906d0190118 bp-75055862-9253-4203-9540-4b56c0190118 bp-72d4461c-2dec-4b9a-aa77-886100190118 bp-0d595bae-c31e-43f4-8595-3628d0190118 bp-c0ad0570-4c66-4934-a3b8-10db00190118 bp-3d223716-1228-45f8-be6e-5e8d00190118 bp-2a0eeb33-7fd3-4bb9-9126-4ea230190118 bp-7645df77-c345-4125-962c-28bf30190118 bp-ee38c9ba-8af3-4ddb-b934-69ed00190118 bp-1fdb3c66-997d-4a09-9b8f-cb6b50190118 bp-d1b04b46-63ff-4a55-865a-35c8e0190118 bp-f0c7172e-0ae2-4b49-ba14-12e230190118 bp-829bd3f3-01a1-45bf-9be0-9511b0190118 bp-497479cc-613e-46c6-941a-27a400190118 bp-8f56cbd1-ad54-430e-b3de-76a3f0190118 bp-fc5b34f4-5d78-46a0-9117-fc5e80190118 bp-918b8676-4980-44a5-bba7-c60910190118 bp-0469f739-7f32-4438-9424-981350190118 bp-496588b4-2e69-4b07-b010-9b7090190118 bp-d05d2e63-cf38-47d9-b8f4-6c5bd0190118 bp-e540a4ed-25a2-491f-a100-cbef70190116 bp-5eca4c71-757f-486e-b341-110b20190109 bp-aaa90706-fc2d-44d4-8374-d82280181218 bp-b395dcab-4f78-4f05-b5ed-a0e4a0181213 bp-9b50ee2f-401b-4d5b-accf-578230181206

My wife's Thunderbird stopped downloading last month. She can still log in and see new emails through the ISP web site, but the Thunderbird download just hangs. I erased the last file (12/26) and had her erase the file just after that in case they had some funky characters causing the problem. No change. I have backed up all her emails (twice) and moved them to a local folder. I erased the inbox and inbox.msf files and restarted Thunderbird. The automatic download still failed to download any emails, even to the empty inbox file. The green bar on the bottom of the screen seems to indicate that something is operating in Thunderbird (see attached image), but I have no idea how to stop it so the download can work. We've been using Thunderbird for 12 years or so. Currently version 60.4. You can reach me at @sbcglobal.net

My HTML file image gets automatically larger than the screen when I download it. When I try zooming smaller to make the top of the image appear, then the bottom of the image disappears. The pixel dimensions of the original image are 4:3 (4 horizontal...3 vertical), set up for the apple ipad. It would be OK for me if the image was stretched or squished a little to fit, but the image cannot be cropped unnecessarily to fit. Is there a "fit image into screen" button I'm missing? Thanks for your help Best Regards Richard

Just installed that latest version of Firefox for MacOS 10.14.2 (Mojave), v.64.0, but NO web sites, even some well-known ones, like apple.com, will load when connected to Internet through VPN. Tried following steps in Troubleshooting, like allowing Firefox to be accessed through firewall and trying to change the configuration to disable IPv6 (but that cannot be done at all in about:config using the instructions on the Troubleshooting page.)
No similar problem when using Safari or Opera or Chrome, only Firefox will not connect to web sites through a VPN - only response is a "Server not found" error message, even for apple.com!
