Been trying to open yahoo mail as I need it on a computer not on the phone. I use it every day plenty of times on the phone and laptop. Today I can't open it. Firefox says theres an update, so I download it. I then have to verify my firefox account with my email...of which I cannot open. Yet again another stupid update poorly researched and executed. No doubt I will be told its my fault because I dont have update 72.3.56.786 or install 234.3987.2 or some crap no one would ever know about

I use latest version of Firefox as my browser. How can I remove the tracking link, guce.advertising.com which is now attempting to load when opening a tab from my home page www.huffpost.com? I use u-Block Origin, which does recognize this. I also have Malwarebytes pro, Zemana AntiMalware, CCleanerPro (Removes trackers upon closing browser) and Eset NOD32 Antivirus. None catch, remove or quarantine this tracker. What is the solution??? I have done the "Refresh" and re-installed add-ons. Opening new tab goes to this site: moz-extension://e6856081-a532-44e4-8c4d-7c9c6332e602/document-blocked.html?details=%7B%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fguce.advertising.com%2FcollectIdentifiers%3FsessionId%3D2_cc-session_f733ad9e-b28c-4193-9142-ec4c51d19491%22%2C%22hn%22%3A%22guce.advertising.com%22%2C%22dn%22%3A%22advertising.com%22%2C%22fs%22%3A%22%7C%7Cadvertising.com%5E%22%7D

My Desktop has bookmarks going all the way back to Netscape 1.0 (1995), my LapPad bookmarks go back just a few years. I would like to be able to decide which takes precedence like the Contacts merge in Gmail.
I have been a database user/programmer/coder for the last 50 years, and I know the grief you can run into if update does not go as planned. I could wind up with 1995 data overwriting 2019 data.
Please help or point me to where I can find answers?
Firefox will not load, doing a clean install of Firefox did not fix the problem. Doing a clean install with a fresh profile did not fix the problem either.

I have been having problems with firefox lately. Every time I try to run the program it automatically closes without giving an error message. I am running Windows 10 and this happens in safe mode as well. I have tried doing a clean install of firefox - that did not fix the problem. I tried deleting my profile after uninstalling then doing a fresh install, this did not fix the problem either. I ran a virus scan and did not detect any malware. I don't know what else to try.

When I open a NEW WINDOW, how can I have the cursor default to the URL/ADDRESS bar, thereby allowing me to type immediately without having to click the bar? I ONLY use blank home page and blank tabs. By the way, when I open a new tab the cursor is already in the URL/ADDRESS bar. I simply want the same thing for opening new windows.
Thank you for you time.

How to stop URL bar from enlarging on click?

I am used to double clicking to select words in the URL bar. Not too long ago Firefox had an update where if you click on the URL bar then it would enlarge a bit. When it enlarges, so does the font, meaning that if I try to double click a word, the font resizing could shift the text. It is something minor, but something I am so used to doing. I was wondering if I could go back to the old URL bar that only got a blue highlight on click.

I was reading an article on Sophos about Firefox and how it is protecting our privacy
In the comments it listed 3 sites to check how unique your browser is: https://www.deviceinfo.me – Device Info https://panopticlick.eff.org – Panopticlick https://amiunique.org – AmIUnique
I have Fingerprinters checked to be blocked but on all these sites it still was able to uniquely ID my browser. I thought I had the options set pretty well to lock it down but it doesn't seem that way. Is something not working right or ???
Thanks

Earthlink E-mail both old and new versions do not work properly in Firefox 57 and higher. The function tabs above any message (print, delete etc.) don't respond to clicking. They used to work just fine. Everything works in IE but I use Firefox. The Options are set to open tabs in new windows as always. Earthlink tech support says it's Firefox's problem.

I've tried on firefox 70.0.1, go to my account, privacy/security, and clicked enable 2step. i see the QR code come up, I use google authenticator to add a account, scan the QR code, the generator is successful and displays a timed key.
No amount of time or keys I've entered works. The page just tells me "Invalid two-step authentication code"
I've tried adding manually with a text key instead of QR and still the same thing.

Hi all,
So I have a pinned tab that is automatically refreshed via an extension. That extension is URL based. From time to time I may accidentally clicked a link on that tab and the URL changed then the auto-refresh stops.
In order to keep the auto-refreshed tab's URL, I would like to always open the links on that tab in a new tab, but keep normal behavior on any other tabs. Is it possible to do that?
Thanks,
Jeremy
