As of version 123.x Share>Add to Home Screen shortcuts on iOS/iPad Home Screen no longer open. Instead when tapping the icon it just opens the Firefox start page.

I recently strengthened all my passwords. I used FF on my Mac to accomplish the task and synced the new passwords to Firefox for iOs on my iPhone. I hit the button for autofill passwords, but autofill doesn't work. Often I get a message saying I must have a "passcode-enabled" device. I have that, if they mean the passcode for starting the iPhone after it's been turned off. Wassa matta? Thank you.

Mon i phone et mon mac sont connectés à firefox avec le meme account. Mes mots de passe sont dans mon iphone, aucun mot de passe sur mon mac..., toutes les synchronisation sont activées!! Comment exporter mes mots de passe pour les charger sur mon mac ou plus simple ou faire en sorte que la synchronisation fonctionne entre les deux appareils.??

Merci pour votre aide,

Seems like the Mac iOS pop-up Translation function (when you highlight a text on a webpage and a pop-up menu comes up with "Copy," "Translate," "Look Up," etc.) isn't working on Firefox 123.4. I've checked my Settings and it doesn't seem like there's anything that should be interfering, and it worked fine until about three days ago, when suddenly every attempt to Translate gets a "translation is not available right now, try again later" error.

Any ideas? What sucks is I'm not sure if this is a Firefox problem or a Mac iOS problem. Thanks for any insights.

I'm not entirely certain what to list this under... Mozilla Firefox updated a few weeks ago, not entirely certain which version started this issue. However, in the past, when I go to log into my Capital One app on iOS, the password function with Firefox on my iOS keyboard would automatically identify the Capital One login page through the app, and suggest my Capital One password accordingly.

Nowadays, after whichever update it was, now I have to type Capital One into the search bar for the password function. The password page also doesn't come up on dark mode, even though it did in the past, and my system settings are set to have everything in dark mode. Therefore, I'm wondering if it is user error or some thing that needs to be fixed on the back end.

Uninstalled and reinstalled both the Capital One and the Firefox app, as well as restarting my phone (iPhone 13). Nothing has changed. Thanks for your help.

I am not receiving my email. When I try to, I am told to enter password. Even when creating a new password, I continue to get the same request to enter my password. I don't know how to get out of this predicament. Need help!

If I install Firefox 124.0, will I have an opportunity to change the default tab order setting to "Tab Order" instead of "Recently Opened" before the browser messes up the order of my 100s of open tabs?

Hello! Does anyone know how to disable auto refresh on an iPad with Firefox for IOS? About:config does not run on the iPad... Thanks!!

I think b/c I have an old Firefox acct on my old, locked iPhone 11,that when this iPad synced, with info on iPhone 11 from back when I had computer (Lightning Rod) so this is causing major lockouts because passwords, sign In info, etc don’t match? The 11 never really got used b/c Verizon couldn’t keep signal to phone and automated system kept shutting me down while the higher ups kept trying but eventually I had to give up and return to Spectrum but Verizon Automation also reported me th credit bureau- which we sent a rebuttal to the huge charge but only learned after time to dispute had long passed that b/c we didn’t think to send return receipt- Who kne? Well not only didn’t I get my $600 advanced payment returned and I kept begging those techs to simply give up, send a return box b/c when I agreed to the contract, on recording, I specifically stated that if what he ( salesman agreed to, that is, that I wouldn’t need to pay separately for Spectrums signal then yes, I agree to the contract… Spectrum, unfortunately, prior to CoVid, lied about upstate NY having 100% coverage and thus other companies suffered losses b/c they depended on wireless signal just as CoVid really took off(sorry for rant!) So, the 11 really didn’t get used b/c Verizon management understood the serious threat to me being terminal but the automated system couldn’t be overridden, and thus my question to you is…How can I separate, or stop the syncing with the outdated info that I suspect is confusing and driving me insane when the Firefox for iOS is getting separate info? But, suspecting I’m an intruder? Lastly, the old 11 has Now added newer (recent info) and I simply don’t know the info when being asked, nor do I know if both the one Android temporary (pay as you go phone…will cooperate with separate platforms as well as apps but it was never this confusing when I used Firefox before yet being much more deteriorated medically, I simply am desperately trying to protect my privacy until Apple can find a way to help get my watch back monitoring me while I temporarily have the Android so if something obvious happens - which btw, when the watch literally saved my life, nobody knew before that occurred that my body was no longer able to make a life sustaining trace mineral and the other requirements to absorb in order to live but b/c the watch was monitoring and SOS, at the hospital, my cardiologist was able to have tests that they instantly started IV’s saving me and Now although the watch isn’t working- I simply can only pray that b/c Apple is doing what they can, at least if I get some kind of pain or unable to breathe as was the case that day… but then I have lots of allergies so that’s what I and others thought was issue… but with the American ingenuity of what Apple has started, the ability to prevent deaths that could have been prevented, yet I’m hitting a huge brick wall with Spectrum arguing and putting my life at risk denying that Apple could have got my watch going but told me to call Spectrum because even with my phone dying from a fall, I’m paying out the ying Yang not only for cellular to not only go to my broken iPhone but am also paying for cellular to my watch which luckily I did get with its own cellular. But enough of the horror story…is there any advice you can provide while Apple has taken lead, to protect me from the Android but more importantly help me with the old info, of the 11 vS new of 14 which Apple has jumped further in to prevent the unthinkable from possibly occurring. I’d be lying if I tried to say I’m not frustrated with Spectrum, but I’m not interested in dying to enrich my heir…I still have things…a long long bucket list, but I’m just trying to keep myself and what is still working safe. You guys are wizards with this stuff… Please let me know if you can help separate out but possibly not make me more vulnerable. Thanks for what you do in trying to help people like me who don’t know much about what it entails nowadays to utilize the access, yet not be further victimized or experiencing more stored info.

Please call me if you can!

Hi - I deleted & reinstalled Firefox focus for IOS because I was unable to email myself articles from FF. Now, every time I open an email on my Protonmail app, instead of it opening in Safari, it opens in FF (where I have Safari turned off). What have I done? (lol) And could you please help?

Firefox has been my default browser, but when I click on a link in an email newsletter, for example, often I get to the Firefox homepage instead of the link. I have to click a second time to get the linked page itself. When I search with Firefox and click on a link, I may get there, but if I try to go back to the search page, the page crashes and I'm taken to the Firefox home page. I fear I will lose my saved passwords if I uninstall and reinstall--is there any alternative?

I am trying to sign into a website using a username and password. I am using an iPad Pro. When I touch in the username field, I get a popup at the bottom of my screen reading " for xxxx.xxx.edu -- Firefox [username] I touch that and get a message from Firefox saying: "To use the AutoFill feature for Firefox, you must have a device passcode enabled. The issue is I DO have a device passcode enabled. I don't know why Firefox is giving me this message and at that point, all I can to is cancel and return to the website login screen. Any suggestions or help? Thanks much!

Hello,

for some time now I have not been able to download anything from homepages. The download window pops up, but it is a 0 file. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, but unfortunately this has not worked. What can I do?

Kind regards Susi

I find the process of adding bookmarks really difficult. I have a ton of them and I need to keep them organized, so I have to add them to the correct folder when I make them. So on mobile, I have to go to the menu, tap add, quickly tap the "edit" button before it goes away, navigate out of mobile bookmarks to desktop bookmarks, scroll past every single folder and subfolder I have (there are a lot) and finally get to save my bookmark. Then, when I find something else I want to remember in the same category, I have to do the same 6-step process because the browser doesn't automatically navigate to the last folder I saved to. If anyone knows of a way to make the process shorter I would be very grateful.
