I am trying to change my browser from Chrome to Firefox. I am having trouble importing bookmarks etc. When I select the versions to import, only one option from Chrome is displayed in the list - it's the version/setting of SOME years ago. What can I do to import current bookmarks?

Today, I cannot even open the website!! This is what shows up:

"Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to mydorway.dor.sc.gov.

PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

So, my problem is with HW acceleration in FF. Basically:

If its enabled: It causes graphical artifacts in videos [See screenshot]. If its disabled: It brings screen tear in to videos and autoscroll [Like if Vsync is disabled in games].

I tried safe mode, I tried reinstall of FF, I tried disabling and enabling extensions. I tried to set Vsync on in Nvidia control panel... the only thing that impact those bugs is HW acceleration in FF.

My drivers are up to date, my browser is up to date, yet there is such trouble.

Any ideas or solutions?

I just finished using my printer. When I came back to print something else, it wouldn't print. Got this error code.

The page isn’t redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never be completed.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I did what it said: checked the connections, etc. I even changed out the printer with another one. Same problem.

I updated Firefox this morning to 139.0.4 on my Mac and now the '+' sign to add a new tab no longer appears on the tab bar. I can still add new tabs with Command T however.

Any suggestions on how to restore the '+' sign?

Thanks Dan

How come only on firefox does it show youtube's views, likes and subscribes number value look like an old mechanical odometer? See attached image to see what im talking about.

Does anyone know how to disable it so that it just shows the number plainly and not this weird thing?

Back around February (2025), the full screen mode by pressing F11 quit working. Clicking the diagonal two pointed arrow in the application menu didn't do it anymore either. Both actions only toggle the bookmark bar. I've tried reinstalling, and waiting for further updates. So far, still no luck. I've since moved on to using another browser, since I often want this feature. Does anyone have the same problem or know how to fix this?

I had the Capital One Shopping extension show up on my extensions list, I think from maybe a misclick while checking out online, and so I uninstalled it yesterday on my laptop because it was slowing my browser down and throwing annoying popups. I didn't and don't trust an extension like this with my browsing data. So I was concerned today when I pulled up a Firefox window on my desktop PC (same Firefox account) and a second tab opened up automatically with the Uninstall Survey for this extension. I filled that out yesterday when I uninstalled the extension. I checked, and the extension has been uninstalled--it no longer appears on my extensions list on any device. I assume that it's just that this is the first time I've opened Firefox on the same account on a different device, and Firefox is somehow repeating the prompt to open the survey tab. But I've never had this happen before and I don't love that it's a tracking extension that did it. Do I have anything to be concerned about here? Or is this a normal fluke of Firefox accounts on multiple devices and not the fault of this extension?

In paying my Illinois tax bills i tried to get a print out of my payment confirmation but the site said that this browser blocked my printing, as popups are blocked for their site from your browser

I love having the ability to group some of my tabs but I'm wondering if it's possible to create "subgroups" of tabs inside of a "group". For instance, it would be very confusing & even chaotic to have one tab group named "Computers" that has tabs for sites where I buy computers/parts/software, sites where I go to for support for my hardware/software issues, & sites where where I can read reviews about the up & coming new hardware/software. However, the chaos would go away if I could have 3 tab subgroups (Shopping, Support, & News) UNDER a "top level" tab named "Computers".

From what I've been able to find on the Firefox website, this capability is not yet available but I'm wondering if it's something that's currently in development. If not, I would like to suggest that it be seriously considered. I realize that some people could take this kind of capability to the extreme, with hundreds of tabs organized using multiple "sub-tiers" & trying to develop something to support the extreme cases would be a nightmare. However, the ability to even two levels (groups & 1 level of subgroups) would be a HUGE improvement over the current situation.

Sehr geehrtes Team, ich wurde aufgefordert, ein Upload zu starten bei Firefox. Das habe ich versucht. Ich erhalte die Meldung 'Couldn't load XPCOM' Was muss ich tun, um Firefox wieder zu starten ?? Wird dringend wg. Kontoprüfungen benötigt ! Kann dieses evtl. an fehlender Kapazität liegen ? Z.Zt. habe ich 371 MB von 111 KB zur Verfügung. Ich bitte Sie, mir schnell zu helfen - Danke vielmals. MfG Karin Gähler Telefon +49 [phone number removed]

Dear Team, I was asked to start an upload in Firefox. I tried that. I get the message 'Couldn't load XPCOM' What do I have to do to restart Firefox? It's urgently needed for account verification! Could this possibly be due to a lack of capacity? I currently have 371 MB of 111 KB available. I ask you to help me quickly - thank you very much.
