Checked with Autoruns - and it shows nothing related to mozilla except maintenance service, which is already disabled. No shortcuts in start menu, registry clean, startup tab in task manager is clean... HOW does firefox still manage to start after boot? How is this done? Please note I am NOT looking for a way to disable this behavior (already know how).
Firefox
"https" suddenly not showing on any site in the Google search results
Can it be fixed and how?

I am experiencing puzzling display problems with pages involving lowercase italic “y” and “x”; Lowercase y’s are dropped from displayed text and the space is closed up. The word “type” becomes “the” for example. Lowercase x’s displays as open quotation marks. This seems to happen regardless of the called for font, but only in italics.
The pages where I am seeing this problem display properly in Safari. Running Firefox 70.0.1 (64 bit) on a MacBook Pro, 13 inch, 2018, running Mojave 10.14.6

I use firefox account on my devices but I have personal bookmarks in a subfolder on my bookmark bar (Folder marked personal) One of the devices I want to sync other bookmarks to is my work PC but I do not want the personal folder to sync up to the work PC, There does not appear to be any way to mark folders as Do Not sync, Is this a function that is likely to be added or am i stuck having personal/private links being sent up to work which in some situations could cause me problems at work - or do i need to just store these personal links outside of Firefox for privacy?

I just got a new SSD and did a clean Ubuntu 19.10 install. Before deleting the old system I did a backup of my Firefox (71) bookmarks to a JSON file. That JSON file has a size of 6.4 MB.
Now on the new install (FF 72.0.1) I restored my bookmarks from that JSON file. But when I did my daily bookmark backup shortly after, the new JSON file only has 5.5 MB.
How come the 0.9 MB difference? How can I tell what data was lost in the process?

Hey folks, I just installed Firefox last week and really want it to work for me (ditching Chrome...). BUT, 2 things are happening and really testing my patience: 1. it logs me out of my account every time I x out the Firefox window or if my Mac goes to sleep (so every morning I come back I'm logged out) 2. even after I log in, it restores my bookmarks but not my preferences (so bookmarks toolbar doesn't show up, passwords that I saved don't auto-fill, etc.)
Basic info: I run HighSierra 10.13.4 I have tried the "resfresh firefox" thing I have my account syncing with my iphone The only extensions I have is "save to feedly board". I did have clockify installed but it keeps getting ditched again, so I gave up for now.
Any suggestions for how to fix this? (I am not a mac pro - please explain so I little kid could understand it too ;)
Thanks lots, Anne

I am typing this on Microsoft Edge browser.
I am getting angrier and angrier. I allowed Firefox to "update" my browser. The result is that my browser will no longer connect to the internet. Edge, Internet Explorer, and Chrome can all connect to the internet. Firefox cannot.
I have rebooted my computer. I have looked through the HELP stuff. There is ZERO way to connect to a HUMAN BEING and I am PISSED. I have work to do. There are other browsers that obviously work, but Firefox has all of my bookmarks, with logon credentials.
I do NOT want to migrate to another browser but it is looking like my only choice. If I have to do that I will uninstall Firefox and spread the word.
I am sorry to sound like a dick but you have really screwed me over.

Toolbar font size changed without input.

I need to allow some websites to store cookies, all other cookies are getting deleted every time I close FireFox. There is a dialogue "Cookies and Website-Data"-->"Permissions" that lets me whitelist specific websites. Cookies of these websites should be excepted from the deletion when closing FireFox.
The problem is that everytime I close firefox the whitelisted websites disappear... I had this problem already with Version 69, its still there in 70...
Thanks in advance for any hints...

Is there a way to set a custom shortcut to open the location bar under macOS?

For all my years using PCs I've used the Alt+D shortcut to open the location bar in every browser, but for whatever reason, under macOS this shortcut changes to CMD+L which I have never been able to get used to. I've worked around this by using macOS' built in keyboard remapping to swap the CMD+D and CMD+L shortcuts for Open Location and Bookmark This Page in Chrome and this has worked fine for me in all the years I've been using Macs and Chrome.
However, I would like to stop using Chrome and Firefox does not have an Open Location entry under the menu bar so I can't swap the shortcuts around. Is there any way at all that I can do this? It's such a minor thing really, yet I find it so irritating at the same time so any suggestions would be appreciated.

I get this yellow banner at the top of page with this text, A web page is slowing...
It so far only happens when I go to my bank's website and try to sign in.
I've tried several changes to security in preferences and nothing has helped.
This only started happening on this last firefox update to 70.0.1
Now I wish I could go back to the old version, 68 something...
thanks for any help Morris
