Hello, due to problems with the Firefox Beta (for Android), I switched to the stable version. However, with this version I also encounterd some problems, mainly regarding the homepage: In the beta version collections are displayed (at the bottom) of the homepage. In my stable version, I cannot see the collections at all. I can still add sites to collections, and when doing so, all my collections are shown but I don't know how to access them. I could not find anything about it in the settings. Is this the regular behavior? If not, how can I change it?

Best regards

Firefox Auro updated and deleted all of my bookmarks. There is no option to recover bookmarks and syncing from another device isn't working.

All of my bookmarks have been disappeared with a new automatic update (9/22) and now I'm left with no bookmarks at all. My other devices were not synced because my work computer needed different links saved. Any easy options for recovery? The bookmark management tool shows no options to import bookmarks and clicking any of the restore or import options does literally nothing. This is a huge issue for work flow and is putting me out of schedule. Why would an update remove ALL bookmarks? Seems like a serious over look in function.

I have various shortcuts saved on the shortcut page comes up after logging in. Its set to 2 rows.. I use it every day. Used it this morning and working perfectly. Been out and when I came back the page is totally blank. I've tried sytem restore to 5th October but makes no difference. I use Windows 10 and read that Firefox are continuing to support Windows 10 I'm visually impaired and use a desktop PC with a large screen. I'm not PC techically knowledgeable. How do I restore my shortcuts or how do I re create them?

My problem is that Firefox will no longer allow me to login to my primary websites (email, bank, Costco, Apple...). I originally assumed that my outdated version of the MacOS was the problem, which was tied to the age of my outdated iMac hardware. Hence, I bought a new iMac, with the latest MacOS. Firefox still does not work. There is something wrong with Firefox and I don't know what it is. I have captured screenshots of the symptoms of what goes wrong with each website, but the one thing in common is that they are saying it is an application error on my end of the connection — which must be the browser (Firefox). I am being forced to do my daily business with Safari, but that is a strange browser for me, and they do not have my numerous Bookmarks. Also, their way of storing bookmarks is very strange, so I only have 5 — the ones that I have found so far that do not work with Firefox. There are probably more, maybe All of my bookmarks, but these are the 5 that I need every day.

Figure 1. Outlook (my email) When I log into my email, the result is Figure 1. This appears to me an application error on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 2. Costco.com When I log into Costco.com, the result is Figure 2. This appears to me an application error on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 3. Apple.com When I log into Apple.com, the result is Figure 3. This is Apple telling me there is something wrong on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 4. BankofAmerica.com When I log into my account at Bank of America, everything looks fine at first. But when I try to open my checking account, the result is Figure 4. This symbol, swirling forever, indicates something wrong on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

Figure 5. Hallmark.com When I log into Hallmark.com, everything looks fine at first. But none of the links will open, hence I cannot obtain any information about upcoming TV programs. This indicates something wrong on my side of the connection -- i.e., Firefox.

All the above examples work perfectly with Safari. Firefox is supposed to be the most up-to-date browser, so why has Firefox stopped working properly?

My Firefox browser just updated to version 143.0.1. When the browser reopened, there was an instructional page that opened in a new tab describing the Unload Tab function. I followed the instructions, right-clicked on the tab, the drop down menu appeared, but there wasn't an Unload Tab option. However, there was a Reload Tab option shown.

How do I resolve this? I'm using a macOS 15.6.1.

I have Firefox installed on three Windows Desktop Computers. On one, I just cannot delete Bookmarks, no matter what suggestions I try. Verify Integrity of the database produced no results. I do not, for a variety of reasons, sync bookmarks (or anything else) between the three installations. Experienced user that has spent far too long on what should be a simple issue.

Is it possible to make a donation to Mozilla without providing so much personal information? I got a message on Firefox today asking for a donation, but when I tried to do that, I was asked for my home address. It's a general rule of internet marketing that people who use the internet would rather do anything than pay for something, so it's bad psychology to impose unnecessary conditions when you're asking for a donation. I don't have to provide my home address when I make donations to other organisations, so why does Mozilla need my home address? I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask this question, but I can't find anywhere else to ask it!

Thanks,

Shaun.

Hi, I have the settings of 'General > Startup > [checked] Open previous windows and tabs' on. Most of the time it works as expected, but there are several occurrences when all of the sudden all of my pinned tabs are gone. When this happened, I usually tried the 'Command + Shift + T' to restore them. Sometimes they came back, some other times, they don't.

Can you fix it?

It's starting to get really irritating because I can have >12 tabs pinned and it's troublesome to have to remember them all in case this happens again in the future.

Thanks!

Both the phone and tablet are current gen and both up to date. I do not have the computer anymore as it was left behind when my child and myself escaped a domestic abuse household permanently. I was not about to haul a computer on a last minute escape. I changed passwords, etc. Keep getting "something went wrong" when I go to firefox dot com / pair. I need my phone shit synced to my tablet.
