About once a week, my default browser search changes itself to Yahoo and I have to go into Preferences and manually change it back to Duck Duck Go. I have tried all the suggestions in the other answers to this question. I do not have any Yahoo extensions or anything suspicious. I have searched my entire computer for "Yahoo" and find nothing. I do not have a folder for Firefox, or any preferences file, only the application itself. I am on a Mac so Windows answers don't help me.

I added firefox a couple weeks ago and everytime I shut down my laptop, I have to log back into firefox as well as reconfigure my settings. It does not do this on my phone, what is the reason for this?
Every time I open firefox it asks me to sign in to my profile. When I do, I have lost all of my bookmarks etc.

I then go into about:profiles and have to delete multiple profiles that have appeared and set my original one to default, which works fine and i have all my bookmarks back. However as soon as I switch my macbook off and on again, I am back to square one and have to delete old profiles and set my old one to default. This is incredibly frustrating.

I've dealt with this over a month now and I'm sick of it. There is no reason for this. I manage multiple YouTube accounts and have since abandon three of them over this. It's not even worth it anymore. Why am I being signing out every time I restart my Mac? I scavenged through the settings and there's nothing on "mass sign me out of all websites when I update FireFox or restart my computer". I can kill/ force quit FF and everything is still signed in, it's only when either FF updates or I restart my computer. It's sickening and a burden, hopefully; this isn't some key security feature that Mozilla thought was a great idea. I need some easing and for someone to tell that this is an easy fix and not some b.s. bug that will never be patched.

Steps to reproduce:
- With an open Firefox window in the foreground - Enter keyboard shortcut: Command-N
Expected behaviour:
- New window opens with keyboard focus on the location field - Keys enters appear immediately as text in the location field
Observed behaviour:
- New Firefox window opens without keyboard focus in the location field - Keys typed are not entered into the location field
Further observations:
- Entering Command-L focuses the location field as expected - Opening a new *private* window *does* place keyboard focus in the location field - All installed extensions are permitted in private windows

I have installed Firefox 70.0.1 and I am testing our Lockwise. My questions are: 1. Does Lockwise store my credentials for websites locally (on my machine) or on a server? 2. If I later decide I don't like Lockwise and want to use another password manager, is there a means of exporting the credential data in a form that other password managers will understand?

Gmail all of a sudden stopped uploading attachments, does anybody else have this problem and/or know how to fix it? It's happening when I try to drag/drop an image into an email, and even when I try to attach a file the traditional way via paperclip button. It doesn't show an error message, it just gets stuck in the midst of attaching.

I have multiple client certificates in Firefox. When I go to a site which requires a client certificate it pops up the selector for the client certificate. With Firefox 70 (I think) by default it chose a matching and valid client certificate. Now with Firefox 71 it seems to sort the client certificates by serial number and thus the one selected by default is the first one in the list, which is expired in my case. Thus, now each time I go to a site where I need a client cert I must manually pick the correct, valid certificate.
Doesn't looks like an improvement to me. Or is there a new config setting which I have missed?
