Gents: I do not want to give my correct phone number for anyone to enter in their database. How can I use Sync w/o giving my true number? 2. I thought I had Sync set up previously but now it always hits me with the 'enter your phone number' which is a dead end for me.
3. I believe when the Support page is asking for my Yahoo email logon (for some reason) that it is linking my Yahoo with this support site instead of allowing me to use my normal logon. Is there a way I can check and be sure that these are not linked, and that I didn't miss some asterisk B.S. somewhere about "you are now giving support.mozilla or whatever was using this, to link my yahoo account?
Thank you!

How do I put the Tabs on Bottom with Firefox 71? Once again, with their update, they SCREWED UP.

I attempted to reuse the Chrome fix that was successful for previous versions, but that did not work. I want my Tabs on the Bottom where "I" put them, not they way Firefox thinks I am supposed to have them I am sure others are having the same difficulty.
No convenient way to rate all installed extensions

I've been using Firefox for a while and I came across some great extensions. I would like to give each of them a rating to help other people find better extensions, but there seems no easy way to do so. On Google Play you can review installed extensions in Play Store easily by click each of them and use the one-tap rating button. On iOS, if you allow them, App Store will even prompt you a one-tap rater after you've installed some app and used for a while, which is even more convenient. I wonder if Firefox (could) have the same experience. Without it, it's harder to encourage people (who wish to spare the time) to involve in the rating system.

Version 71 FF Won't Run

Ever since my first ever use of FireFox the setting to "update" has been set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them".
Yesterday I clicked to accept the latest update (to 71.0 I think) at which point the programme simply crashed without warning.
I went through various processes to try and resurrect FF, but without success --- FireFox would not run.
I eventually resorted to installing Version 65.0 but, despite the update settings being set as above, Version 71 kept installing and making FF a "non-starter" again.
I made an alteration to the "about:config" which seems to have stopped the automatic updating, albeit the "FF Icon" still wants to function as "Updater" and I get a message (when started) saying FF is unable to update to the latest version - "click here to download etc.," which of course I don't do and FF continues to perform as expected - albeit 65 and not 71.
Is there a problem with Version 71 and (possible) Win 7 64 bit ?
How can I reconfigure the "FF Icon" to simply start the programme (version 65) in the normal way and not get involved with it wanting to update all the time?
Another peculiarity that has arisen is that, when I try to change the Default language from American English to British English I receive a message saying FF cannot change as it is not online. (Version 65 and it is definitely online)
I have carried out system scans for Viruses etc., perform really in-depth un-installations of FF, and no new applications have recently been installed.
I changed toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets=true and ff still does not read userChrome.css. It is working on a laptop.

The laptop is running V 69.0.2 and somehow, the desktop got on the beta channel (which I have since changed) and is running V 70.0b12. I copied the working userChrome.css file from the laptop to PC, but it just isn't getting read. Anything else that needs to be changed? I hate tabs on top!

I have done everything that is in the support answers, but to no avail. When I open FF in my jalopy (10 yr old computer), all my current bookmarks, and history for the past 5 years are still there. After copying the profile, and the entire Mozilla folder (separate attempts), and over-copying the folder in my new computer, there is no change; the files only go back to when I first installed FF on it. None of your support answers say anything about whether to copy the jalopy files into the local, or roaming folders, so I copied it into both. Still no difference.
In a related migration/replace problem, I cannot sync my new computer with the old, even though they're both in the same account name. The jalopy and new computer names are both recognized in the jalopy, but the new computer doesn't pick up the old computer name. This was the first thing I tried to reconcile the two machines. I am extremely frustrated, and at my wits end dealing with this problem. Any reasonable assistance and solutions are appreciated. Thank you.
P.S. If there is a response, will I receive an email or message on my FF account, or do I have to read through 800 instances to find the answer?

Master password had been working fine for months now. This week, all of a sudden, Firefox will open and function without asking for my password.
After a few minutes it will ask for the pass.... and then it will repeat every 10-15mins to ask for the password again.
(This is only some sessions. 1 out of 3 maybe. The rest of the time Master Password works properly, just like before.)

My Tabs toolbar used to be under my Links toolbar. It is now above the Address toolbar.
How do I put my Tabs toolbar back where I want it (not where Firefox arbitrarily decided to put it)?
Alternately, How do I go back to FireFox 70.0.1?
System: Windows 8.1, 64-bit
FireFox 71, 64-bit
Note: My laptop (Windows 8.1, 64-bit) has Firefox 70.0.1 (but wants me to "update" (sic)). It has the tool bars in my preferred order. I'm not about to "update" until I know how to fix FireFox 71.

I had 2 Firefox browsers that had a bunch of tabs open. I mistakenly clicked a link in Outlook that opened Firefox for that webpage. I quickly closed it from the toolbar, realizing I might lose all the other tabs, and I did lose them. I had at least 14 in one, 16 in another, and is there any way I can go back and retrieve them? Does Firefox keep any backups of open tabs so I can get to them? I had so many open, there's no way I can remember which ones they were, because I multitask like crazy. Now, I'm afraid to use it at all, just in case the more I do, the more the previous sessions will be lost. YIKES! I just moved, got my computer back up and running, and now this. I could chew my own arm off for this. Can anybody out there help me?
