Several of my financial accounts give me this error with Firefox. I had to go to Edge to get my tax documents. I'd much rather have a way to get to my sites without leaving Firefox.

Why are my 3 rows of Home page tabs now so small? I can go to about:config, search for browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabLayouts.variant-b and change to false and tabs are back to large. However, they soon revert back to very small. How can I keep them large?

I thought that synchronization would save my data so that I could prepare my PC for reinstalling Windows. As a result, after all the procedures and installing the Browser, synchronization does not restore my data. It's very disappointing. And the history of old sessions is completely erased.

I have a 2023 MacBook Pro and a Synology NAS. Fairly recently, when I have tried to access the web site for the NAS using Firefox, I have received the following error message: "Unable to connect. An error occurred during a connection to [the IP address].” I am able to access the web site using the Safari and Bing browsers, and I also am able to access the web site using Firefox on an iPad. I already have contacted Apple and Synology support personnel, and have been that the issue is not with either Apple or Synology products. Please let me of any potential solutions to this problem that Mozilla may have.

Is there a way to adjust the timing of notification banners being display in the lower right of my screen... I notice that notification for "X (Twitter)" only last a few seconds, which is fine... but YouTube notifications will not disappear unless I select "Dismiss". I looked at Notification setting but don't see anything that seems to address that. Thank You

Hello,

I was at a friend last night and logged into my monzilla account on his firefox browser. To my shock all his passwords, over 300 of them, got added to my password. I just want to point out here that his passwords were stored locally without an account. As soon as I logged in it started syncing on my account. This is a HUGE SECURITY BREACH and should be addressed immediately. there should at least be a prompt or 2 making sure that I want to add locally stored password to my account or not.

If I had not noticed it at that time I would probably have gotten away with all of his passwords without me or him knowing. I had to manually delete the ~300 entries. makes you think how many times this already happened in the past for others.

Best regards, Remco

However it recently it doesn't always load when I start up my laptop it loads a different advertisement page for Century Link. I called Century Link and they told me it had to do with my browser (Mozilla Fire Fox) not them.?

How to Automatically Trigger PDF Printing in Firefox?

In previous versions of Firefox (up to version 133), it was possible to automatically trigger printing of a PDF file by loading it into an iframe from a sandboxed iframe and call print. However, starting with version 134, this no longer works.

Is there any other way to automatically trigger the print dialog for a PDF file in Firefox, similar to how it can be done in Chrome/Edge (e.g., by opening the PDF in a new window and directly triggering the print dialog without additional button clicks)?

I have Firefox on Windows desktop and on my android phone. I have logged into both. When I click on "tabs from other devices" I only see tabs from another PC I use.

I tried logging out of Firefox Android and using the desktop browser's "connect another device" link to log back into it, but it still doesn't appear as a device. What am I missing?

EDIT: Ok now Android tabs are showing up, but not all of them. Seems to cut off after about 40. Anyway to get Firefox Desktop to show all Android tabs?

An errant setting on my backup program wrecked havoc on my FF profile. I have a backup from two weeks ago which I can go back to, but I'm trying to figure out how to get my browsing history from the past two weeks over to the restored profile.

Some options I thought about: and for clarity, the newer but bad profile is still loadable, I've mainly lost all my extension settings and stored data

  • Is there any tool that would sync the entries from the newer/bad profile to the older/good profile?
  • If I restore the older/good profile, would FF Sync just add back in the newer entries -- which presumably it has saved in it's system over the past two weeks?
  • I believe the places.sqlite" file from the newer/bad profile is still intact. Should I just copy that to the older/bad profile?
