I recently switched to Firefox from Chrome. I have been using Chrome for years and have lots of bookmarks and passwords and such that I want to transfer over. The thing is, I do not typically use a desktop; I use my iOS mobile devices. Is there a way to transfer my bookmarks in the app? Or am I required to use a desktop to complete this?

Hi Folks,

"Block pop-up windows" is enabled in Firefox, but I still get popups from www.smh.com.au Maybe you have time to investigate - a different type of popup needs blocking.

Sample page https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/inflation-tipped-to-fall-while-rent-costs-to-buck-trend-with-15-year-high-20230721-p5dqbj.html

Thanks

When I click a link on a website, a new Firefox tab opens with this message: 400 Bad Request Request Header Or Cookie Too Large nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu). This is new behavior; it was working fine until yesterday. Can you tell me how to fix it?

Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.google.com because this website requires a secure connection.

What can you do about it?

www.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

If you are on a corporate network or using anti-virus software, you can reach out to the support teams for assistance. You can also notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

When clicking advanced button there is no way to proceed:

Someone could be trying to impersonate the site and you should not continue.

Websites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust www.google.com because its certificate issuer is unknown, the certificate is self-signed, or the server is not sending the correct intermediate certificates.

Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

When Night Mode is on, every picture looks color-inverted and spooky, so I need to switch to the light mode to see any images. It’s really frustrating since I much prefer the dark mode.

I am using firefox 102.0(64 bit) on windows 10. Recently some videos i watch have Error Code: 232011. Also I can't drag and drop shortcuts of certain sites to desktop or folders. It installs an empty file folder.

I tried importing passwords from Chrome, but the Chrome browser on this machine doesn't actually contain any passwords. Do I need to sync the two on another machine, or is it possible to import from Google Password Manager instead of Chrome?

I want to resize a window, without dragging the edges around. I've read the resizing instructions and am unable to find the "resize" icon next to the address bar. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Every time I try to go to a .onion site I get a message saying "you are trying to reach an onion/hidden service. To access (site) via web you will have to use the tor browser" but I am on tor browser.

Firefox was working fine yesterday. But all of a sudden while playing a youtube video it started being choppy. It drops frames, scrolling and video playback are choppy and laggy, there is lag on button inputs, the system is choppy and laggy too while firefox is open, especially when video is playing. I checked the CPU and GPU usage and I can't see any spikes. I have tried refreshing firefox but that did not fix the problem.

OS is manjaro linux (gnome version) latest. Firefox is also at the latest version.

Starting about 2 weeks ago everytime I access Facebook, it starts reloading pages and I can't stop it. This is the only site I've had the problem with and it always starts happening when I have paged down several pages. I've tried changing settings, and even uninstalled the system and re-installed to no avail. Something has changed so please fix it!

How do I block autoplay vedio?

I know I can block Audio and Video, but I just want to block autoplay video. As if I use the block audio and video it will mute all videos I open, and I need to unmute it every time. I just want autoplay to not start, not mute the video too.
