Why can't I sync computer bookmarks to iPhone? I can't get my iPhone to show up on list of connected devices. I've tried everything in Help. I have a Mozilla Account. Running 135.0.1

From the Firefox Start Page on my iPhone (running 18.3.1) . . . the menu in the bottom right hand corner does not give me the option to "Sync and Save Data". This is a roadblock for me! I'm not a computer genius but I'm not completely ignorant. I should be able to do this! https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2025-02-28-15-53-59-c3d764.png Help please!

I am having difficulty trying to view a website. I receive the following message whenever I try to view this website:

"Suspected Phishing This website has been reported for potential phishing.

Phishing is when a site attempts to steal sensitive information by falsely presenting as a safe source."


There are two buttons beneath this message, the one on the left which reads "Learn More," the one on the right which reads "Ignore & Proceed." Yet when I click on either of the buttons a blank white page appears.

The web address in the URL field also changes from the website I originally selected to the following:

https://www.smartredirect.de/redir/clickGate.php?u=IgKHHLBT&m=1&p=8vZ5ugFkSx&t=vHbSdnLT&st=&s=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.brutaltops.com%2F&r=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3DBrutalTops.com%26sca_esv%3D9a8e8f6bd3ba345e%26source%3Dhp%26ei%3DHMO2Z6SJBaqWwbkP7JzXUA%26iflsig%3DACkRmUkAAAAAZ7bRLHc87-cSI48xaawgAj9EjL-Nm71U%26ved%3D0ahUKEwikh43Vx9GLAxUqSzABHWzOFQoQ4dUDCBM%26oq%3DBrutalTops.com%26gs_lp%3DEgdnd3Mtd2l6Ig5CcnV0YWxUb3BzLmNvbUjNa1CbCliBWXABeACQAQCYAW-gAfcKqgEEMTYuMbgBDMgBAPgBAZgCCaAClwaoAgrCAgoQABgDGOoCGI8BwgIKEC4YAxjqAhiPAcICERAuGIAEGJECGNEDGMcBGIoFwgILEAAYgAQYkQIYigXCAg4QLhiABBixAxjRAxjHAcICBRAuGIAEwgIREC4YgAQYsQMY0QMYgwEYxwHCAgsQLhiABBjRAxjHAcICCBAAGIAEGLEDwgIXEC4YgAQYkQIYsQMY0QMYgwEYxwEYigXCAgUQABiABMICCxAAGIAEGLEDGIMBwgIIEC4YgAQYsQPCAg4QLhiABBixAxiDARiKBcICCxAAGIAEGJIDGIoFwgILEC4YgAQYsQMY1ALCAhEQABiABBiRAhixAxiDARiKBcICFBAuGIAEGJECGLEDGIMBGNQCGIoFwgIREC4YgAQYkQIYxwEYigUYrwHCAg8QABiABBixAxgKGEYY-QHCAgoQABiABBixAxgKwgINEAAYgAQYsQMYgwEYCsICBxAuGIAEGArCAgcQABiABBgKwgIFEAAY7wWYAxPxBQrZJeqRYy6tkgcDNi4zoAeUYg%26sclient%3Dgws-wiz



Why would I not be able to view this website (and others too) with Firefox but am able with Chrome? I want to be able use Firefox, as Chrome will not allow use of an extension that Firefox will.

Please tell me how this problem may be fixed.

I'm using Firefox 135.0 on a MacBook Pro with a large external monitor.

The menu bar at the top of the screen (NOT the Firefox window) has "Firefox, File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Windows, Help".

When I click on "History", it shows me the most recent 15 pages I visited. Always 15. I'd like to increase that number, as 15 is inconveniently few and uses less than half my screen height. However, I can't find a preference for it either under "Settings" or in "about:config".

I know that there are at least two ways to get to a more extensive history list, but they need more clicks.

So is there a way to change 15 into a larger number?

Thanks. Brendan.

I just got a new PC. On my old Windows 10 PC, many add-ons add useful buttons, for example OneTab which adds a button that closes all tabs and compiles a list of what was there, or Zotero, which lets me send stuff online to my Zotero citation database.

Now on my new Windows 11 PC, even though those add ons are installed and technically functional, I can't find the buttons anywhere. I wanted all that stuff on my toolbar for a reason. All I can find are convoluted keyboard shortcuts. I don't want to use a bunch of stupid keyboard shortcuts when I'm supposed to be able to just push a button for the same functionality.

Where did all my buttons go and how do I put them back? No, they are not in the "customize toolbar" option, and I have checked the options menus for my most important add ons too.

I've browsed the web page that discusses an "Update Firefox" section in Settings/General, but no such section exists. Anyone knows what happened??? Tnx, Nir

Hello,

Since the latest update of Firefox (version 135.0.1) when writing an e-mail the lines keep dropping down automatically at random intervals.

The e-mail host we are using is Polaris Mail, which is through our website provider.

To make sure it wasn't an issue with polaris mail, i have logged into our emails through microsoft edge and they have worked perfectly fine.

I have attached a picture for reference.

Kind regards

Every time I start Firefox after closing it, I get a screen saying "Your Firefox has been updated" plus an announcement about editing PDFs in Firefox. My degault home screen does not appear unless I click the "home" icon. This is frustrating, because the update message just won't go away.

The URL for that irritating message is: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/135.0/whatsnew/?oldversion=134.0.2&utm_medium=firefox-desktop&utm_source=update&utm_campaign=135

I've attached a screenshot to show this, hoping you can suggest a way to fix the issue.

I'm not sure what I'm missing but it'd be really helpful if I could get this onto firefox as I move away from google haha!

Any help to get this onto chrome would be appreciated! Thanks :)

Samsung Frame 85" 2023 with GTX 1050Ti GPU, HP G4 SFF, i5-8500, Win 11 Pro 26100.3194

TV signal, and audio cuts out (black screen) when using mouse arrow to drag scroll in side bar. Also gives a loud audible "click" as sound is temporarily cut out. ( Most probably whole HDMI signal is cut)

Black screen bug happens randomly with You tube with no mouse or keyboard action, but 100% repeatable with this website when scrolling :

Trying to sign up for Mozilla Monitor. It wants my City and State but doesn't recognize it when I type it in so I can't use the Monitor. My address is a "city" of only 1,600 people and apparently too small to be in their data bank. What do I do?

Also my email has now changed. Don't know how to change it but they didn't ask for it for monitor. Confused here. (Okay, I'm 78 and though I have a 90s Multimedia Degree things just change too fast for me to keep up.)

emails have to go to: [edited] @pm.me

Due mostly to upgrades in the app software, it's necessary to restart Firefox on occasion. Also, it's necessary due to OS upgrades. While the Restore Previous Session is a wonderful feature, it arbitrarily (and properly, by default) forgets all of the Private Tabs. But, there are times when I'd like to save some or all of the Private Tabs I've got open. A 'settable' feature to 'Remember Private Tabs during Restart' would be a tremendous asset at times.
