my favorite browser firefox isnt enough help to keep my privacy secure (Its 100% confirmed)

I just learnt that my internet provider is blocking some domain like web.telegram.org which is very annoying. The solution i found on internet is vpn or tor browser.

Am i expecting something from firefox that it cant help me with?

A free vpn or tor browser like functionality?

I am so sorry to go away from it but look like if there is no way firefox can help me secure my privacy then i will have to.

Please try to be friend and help like a friend

On macOS, I set System Settings -> Desktop & Dock -> "Double-click a window's title bar" to "Fill".

In Firefox, double-clicking the window title bar does nothing. If I change the macOS setting to "Zoom", double-click works correctly in Firefox doing Zoom effect.

I confirmed that other applications respond correctly to the "Fill" setting.

Environment: - macOS version: 26.3 - Firefox version: 147.0.4 (aarch64)

I have changed nothing on my system. Yesterday my account showed all passwords and today all passwords are gone. The look of Mozilla has changed overnight. What happened? How can I restore it so I have access to my accounts?

I've tryed all obvious instructions and my bookmarks toolbar will not sync

Can log on to the Google Maps Web Site OK. However, trying to log on to my Google account (in Google Maps) I get the following message: "We've detected a problem with your cookie settings. ". If I try 'Private Browsing' in Firefox (CTRL-SHIFT-P) I am able to log in. However, this seems to have lost all of the Open tabs that I had in 'ordinary' Firefox.

Unable to log into my Google Gmail account, It's telling me to clear the cache in my browser. I've gone to Settings, Privacy and Security, Clear browsing data and cookies. Nothing works. Would appreciate help, please.

Over the last 5 or 6 months, Firefox seems to have lost the capacity to remember my open tabs if my Mac is forced to restart. These open tabs are vital to my workflow. If this can't be solved, I shall have to migrate to another browser, which is something I do not wish to do.

My Firefox version is 147.0.4; my computer a Mac Studio 2025 M3 Ultra; my OS Tahoe 26.3.

Please advise.

Everytime i open mozilla, its just gives me the blank page. i go to the settings and change it but when i close mozilla and open it again it gives me blank page. i cant understand the problem.

WITHOUT FAIL, I AM INUNDATED WITH YOUR UPDATE POP UP ON A DAILY , AND, MOST TIMES, MORE OFTEN.

THIS HAS GONE ON FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME THAT YOU ''''''FIX YOUR PROBLEM?'''''''

Cut the crap and get your act together and yes, I clear my cashe, etc which DOES NOTHING - BUT YOU ALREADY KNOW THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I accidentally deleted all cookies in my browser using an extension and want to restore them to how they were one day ago, but I can't find the restore button anywhere. I found an article on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-backup , but I don't have the buttons mentioned in the article. I don't have a “Restore your data” section or a “Choose backup file” button, and when I click on the link about:restore, I get the response “Hmm. That address doesn't look right.”

PLEASE HELP

The autofill card details isn't working. When I try to I get the message "You have no saved cards."

When I go into the Privacy & Security tab I can see that I have a number of cards saved correctly.

You jerks deleted passwords and bookmarks I needed for work just because I reset my password to login. Why in gods name would you think that's a good idea? Why would I ever use your sync function if you're gonna delete my data the moment you get the chance?

Dear Firefox:

My Firefox New Tab Page will not load properly in normal mode but it will load in troubleshoot mode. The new tab is the normal typical Firefox start page. It has multiple sections with links to many sites. These "links" just flicker. They do not fully load.

When I turn on troubleshoot mode, everything loads fine.

Thanks

Hi, please assist. My old Gmail account that I used to login is no longer working when I try to reset password. I don't have a 2FA push code (must have deleted this); however, I tried one of the 2FA backup codes which I do have (ten digit) to sync and access my old account and reset the password, but it is not working. None of the codes are working. Please help me reset and gain access to the account. Can you help me reset the password, and disable 2FA so I can get back in?

Best, Amritha
