...Pretty much exactly like the title says. I checked the plugin checker after updating to Firefox 30 to see if there was anything that needed updating. Of course, there was: Shockwave and "Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in".
While I was able to get Shockwave up to date just fine, the Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in is presenting some trouble. As in, when I click "Update Now", instead of redirecting to an update page, it redirects right back to the Plugin Check page.
Where can I go to update this plugin? Does it need to be updated? Is this a glitch in the checker, and therefore I don't need to do anything?

Why does it seem like every time Firefox installs an update, all of my add-ons disappear?!! It is so GD infuriating and frustrating, because I have to go back and figure out which ones I had and reinstall them... Why is that even a thing? Why would they design their stupid browser like that? Please correct me if I am wrong and tell me what I am doing wrong....

On two different profiles, the Customize option simply isn't working. I see three different places on the GUI to click on Customize, and none works. Nothing happens when I click on them, beyond the letters "Customize" appearing at the top of a tab.
After appearing earlier this evening, the LastPass icon is also failing to appear on both profiles.

when media starts playing on my computer without my consent, this should be considered a cybercime.
The only way for a video to start playing should be `right click -> play`
cut the nonsense with the *media.autoplay.enabled* switch. it doesnt work and it never will. as soon as the website uses any kind of scripting, this switch is ineffective.
which extension do i need to install to stop this autoplay nightmare forever?

I have an issue with "save as". Can't download whenever I want to choose where to copy something (plus a few other related bugs). Seems not to work when an explorer window is supposed to pop up. I found in FF troubleshooting, that the following 3 files were missing in my "about:config": browser.download.dir browser.download.downloadDir browser.download.lastDir My question is how can I enter them properly? Hoping that's the cause for this issue.

In the last month( i think after updating to frfx 58) when I type to reply to email in my Gmail account in my browser ( firefox 58.0.2) I get to see the standard formatting of the text (blue, comic sans etc) but when I actually send it, the sent email has the format disappeared and is standard format instead (in black plain font for example). This also happens in my other Gmail accounts too. I tried in MS IntExplorer and there is not a problem (meaning it is NOT my GMAIL's account settings)
Any suggestion/help?

I use FlashPlayer to watch videos on YouTube. To get rid of the notification "Press Esc To Exit Full Screen Mode," I went to about:config and changed the value of "full-screen-api.approval-required" to false. It worked until I restarted Firefox and now it doesn't.
As a matter of fact, every time I restart Firefox, it does a lot of things against my Preferences, too. It signs me out of YouTube and every other site even though I have the box checked to NOT do that.
Any real answers or am I deleting Firefox permanently and going back to Safari?

I don't know if its the latest update (65.0.1) that did this to me since I don't know when I last went to the page, but when I go to Add-Ons Manager now, all I see is a blank page (or rather rows of white tiles) rather than a list of my add-ons that I can click on to modify/remove etc.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
How can I change the sizes of fonts and icons in the Menu and Toolbars?

I'm using Firefox 67.0 under MX Linux. My monitor is 25" with a resolution of 1920x1200. With this resolution, the text and icons in Firefox Menu and Toolbars are tiny and almost impossible to read. The Thunderbird add-on Theme and Font Size Changer works reasonably well for Thunderbird, so is there a corresponding add-on for Firefox?
I know that Firefox is largely developed by people who are volunteers, but it seems that a tool, as part of the basic Firefox program, should be available to make these changes without installing add-ons or modifying the code manually. Almost everyone needs to be able to tweak these things at one time or another.
I hate tabs on the top and there's no option to put them on the bottom. WHY
enough said. Why would ANYONE assume users want tabs at the top all the time? What an ignorant upgrade. I'm moving to Chrome.
Address Bar Drop-Down Suddenly Super-Wide?

After the most recent update, the drop-down menu for the address bar/url bar is now the entire width of the screen, as opposed to the width of the address bar, which means that it not only looks clunky/cluttered, but there is a lot of unnecessary space. Also, the page title now displays in front of the page url, as opposed to on top like before.
So, this has prompted two questions from yours truly: 1) Why was this change made? It does not seem practical or needed from my view, and it's not the nicest-looking change either. 2) Is there a way I can get the address bar drop-down menu to look like it used to?
Edit: Also, the scroll bar for the dropdown menu is gone too. How do I replace it?

This is extremely annoying and I will switch to IE after upgrading if there is no immediate resolution IMMEDIATELY since every time I open the browser or click on anything, I get solicited to revert back to my old homepage which was not set by me. I don't want "Ask.com" as my homepage (or search engine) as I do not like it and want the freedom to have my own homepage without being harassed and/or solicited every time I click on something! This is unacceptable and will not be tolerated by me. I don't have the time to deal with this and have already WASTED my time by posting this question, then having to set up an account, then giving details, then having to login only to have my details gone causing me to HAVE TO RE-INSERT THE DETAILS INTO THIS QUESTION WHEN I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE DEALING WITH THIS AT ALL.........NO RESPECT FOR MY TIME AND I AM NOT HAPPY!!!
