My old laptop computer completely died. I installed Firefox on my new computer. However, after signing back into Firefox, my stored passwords and tabs were not available. How do I find/recover saved login passwords and tabs? I am a long-time Firefox user and had a lot of stored information that I assumed would follow my account.

Thank You,

Yesterday on Firefox, I discovered that when I Googled questions, the tabs loaded with a blank 2” left margin indented space. See screenshot attached. This occurred after FF update 147.0, and I have Mac Tahoe 26.2. I see from researching this that it’s a problem after the last FF update, as follows:

The left margin indentation glitch in Firefox 147.0 on macOS Tahoe is a known issue, likely related to rendering or graphics settings conflicts within the new macOS version. Potential fixes include disabling hardware acceleration or checking specific feature flags in about:config.

I refreshed FF, and now all bookmarks I had minimized have the 2” blank margin. How do I get it back to normal so that the text has no huge left margin?

Prevent Picture-in-Picture video from pausing when viewport scrolls?

When a video is popped out, in PiP mode, and the "owning" page is scrolled such that the video "origin" scrolls off the viewport, the PiP video pauses. If the video is started again, and the page is scrolled more, it will re-pause.

This seems to be a Firefox behaviour and not a site-specific one.

Is there a setting to keep the video to continue playing?

This would be helpful on Twitter/X, for example, when scrolling the timeline with a PiP playing from a tweet.

Moved from Windows to Mac and now facing this issue, so it seems to be a Firefox + Mac OS compatibility issue.

Have turned on screen recording permissions in Mac settings and some other accessibility permissions that have been suggested and nothing helps.

Will need to use a different browser just to screen share.

Hi,

From time to time I can’t clear my Firefox history. I try from the menu, then within the settings, to no avail. I restarted Firebox and even my Mac, and the history remains. I used CleanMyMac to empty the cache and the history is still there.

My Firefox: 147.0.2 (64-bit) My Mac: Sonoma 14.8.3 (23J220)

Thank you for your help.

this feature absolutely DOES NOT WORK on ANY Firefox desktop browser on MULTIPLE machines I have tried - and actually I'm pretty sure I can say the same thing about the ANDROID app too?

I can confirm EVERY SITE I have trouble signing in using Passkey on Firefox I can SUCCESSFULLY sign into on Chrome - every single time - the issue is clearly the BROWSER

worse still, it often COMPLETELY CRASHES Firefox and I have to forcibly KILL the process and restart Firefox, after even ATTEMPTING to use this feature

I have tried it on M1 Macbook Pros, on Ubuntu desktops (24.04 LTS) and also on Android

right now I am typing this in on a Firefox I literally just had to Force Quit and restart on a Mac - build 147.0.2 (aarch64)

Hi there, each time I run firefox, a new firefox icon like the attached picture shows up. Now there are several of them. This starts to crowd the dock, also I'm not sure why they are there because I already have a firefox icon in the main dock. Also they are not windows of a firefox window. Clicking on them does nothing.

Within the last few days, I have been unable to browse to our vCenter server using Firefox. When I do initially, I get the usual certificate error. Once accepted, I get an error that Firefox cannot connect to the server.

I receive the same error in Private mode as well.

I am able to browse without issue using Chrome which leads me to believe the problem is with Firefox.

Any help would be appreciated.

My local network is 10.10.10.x and I can't log into my NAS, web server or another computer on the local network... Internet access is fine. Happens on Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

If I access the same web address using Safari or Chrome it works just fine and it used to work before the software update to the 147 build.

So what switch/setting got kicked over during the upgrade that I have to turn off?

These kind of issues really make me mad at the Firefox Dev team... and I'm a very long time user.
