There is an issue with 3 extensions: 1. Briskine. 2. Simple Gmail notes. 3. Boomerang. This issue is taking place only when Briskine is active and only on Firefox.

When Briskine is active Simple Gmail notes does not display at all. Boomerang does not display correctly so there is no access to the full screen and options.

This only happens with Firefox, not with Chrome or Edge. Also, it is a know issue that's been going on for a while. I wish it could be fixed. Thank you Adam [removed phone# and email from public support forum]

For the past couple of days when I watch videos on YouTube on my iMac it's VERY slow to start. Sometimes it takes minutes, at which point I have to refresh, and best case it takes about 1 minute to start.

I have cleared the startup cache, cleared cookies and restarted Firefox.

Also, YouTube works normally on both Safari and Chrome.

Not a super 'tech' guy so any basic steps I can take are appreciated.

Thank you!

how are shortcuts created on my "new tab" home page in firefox browser. I used to be able to create the shortcuts I wanted, not random shortcuts that I might have visited once. Now shortcuts appear that I don't want. I know I can remove them by dismissing them but I should not get them in the first place. Please help.

Dear Firefox Team,

It has occurred to my Firefox Browser of the latest version of 115 with some websites I have recently visited however which appear 8 grids of blank or white pages under "Recent Activity" as attached with the image for your technical troubleshooting suggestion.

Those 8 grids of Recent Activity in the older version of Firefox browsers used to have shown colorful graphics or images representative of the recent websites I visited in the recent past.

May I know what I am supposed to do to recover those graphics or images?

Kindly offer any suggestion or solution?

Thank you for your kind attention.


Best regards,

I have a 2nd identical "other" folder located in the "other" folder. They are somehow linked to each other, so that if I try to delete a bookmark under the 2nd duplicate one, it deletes it from both. If I select something in one folder and then click on the second one that selected item shows under the second as well. I don't want two folders but cannot delete or change anything or it deletes the original as well. Other than restoring an old bookmark backup to replace this defective one does anyone have any solution to fixing this? Thanks Cheers

When accessing print option, it is necessary to go in and out of print mode to get the page to print in desired font. Why is this happening, and is there a way to select a specific font where all printing will adhere to?

Thank you for your time.

Choppy 4K YouTube playback

I have a very good PC (5800X3D, 7900XT, 32GB DDR4 3600), but Firefox (either the normal, canary and nightly version) can't play smoothly any 4K video (like the Borderlands trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lU_NKNZljoQ ). 1440 and lower resolutions are fine, as are 4K videos on Chrome and Edge. FWIW, my CPU during 4K playback is barely used (1-2%), and my GPU's video codec (VCE) is used by around a third. Disabling HW accel makes things better, as it still stutters but it's (barely) passable. I already tried creating a new profile, but still it's the same.

I recently switched from windows to Linux, and was using it for 3 months now. It was due to window recall Feature. But still i was using chrome as default and daily browser. I wanted to explore firefox, its great actually, except 2 things which might need me to switch back to chrome or brave.

1. it don't have fu**king Profile switch, I mean i use 11 Profiles On Chrome, most people still use 2-4 profiles, how can we move to a browser that dont support profiles. I know we can add profiles by "about:Profiles" I tried it. It worked but guess what? To switch profile i have to manually go to that page to launch it. So much time consuming and frustrating. Why not simply add a btn on profile pic like chrome to switch profiles?

2. Add-ons is good thing, but there should be a way to install things from chrome web store, i not found any.

If firefox can fix these two things firefox can simply grow back to 30+ % market share, but if not people will just test l;like me and go.

When attempting to log into my website admin using Firefox, I am unable to view my saved passwords for all websites such as HVAC, contractors, painting, and golf. How can I resolve this issue?

If you're unable to see your saved passwords in Firefox for your websites, here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:

Check Firefox Settings:

Open Firefox and click on the menu button (three horizontal lines) in the top-right corner. Select "Preferences" (on macOS) or "Options" (on Windows/Linux). Go to the "Privacy & Security" panel. Scroll down to the "Logins and Passwords" section. Ensure that the "Remember logins and passwords for websites" option is checked. View Saved Passwords:

In the same "Logins and Passwords" section, click on "Saved Logins...". This will open a new window/tab with a list of all saved usernames and passwords. Clear Private Data:

Sometimes clearing your browsing history and cookies can resolve issues with saved passwords not appearing correctly. Go back to the Firefox menu, choose "Preferences" or "Options", then select "Privacy & Security". Scroll down to the "Cookies and Site Data" section and click on "Clear Data...". Make sure "Cookies and Site Data" and "Cached Web Content" are selected, then click "Clear". Update Firefox:

Ensure you are using the latest version of Firefox. Updates often include bug fixes and improvements that can resolve such issues. Check Password Manager Settings:

If you use a third-party password manager or Firefox's built-in password manager, make sure it's enabled and functioning correctly. Extensions/Add-ons:

Disable any extensions or add-ons that might interfere with password saving or autofill features. Reset Firefox Settings:

As a last resort, you can reset Firefox to its default settings. This will disable extensions and reset other settings. Go to the Firefox menu, choose "Help", and then "Troubleshooting Information". Click on "Refresh Firefox" to reset. If these steps don't resolve the issue, there may be a more specific problem with your Firefox profile or installation that could require more advanced troubleshooting.
