Hi, when I log into my bank I give my account number and then a password. I have told firefox not to remember my password but it is remembering the bank account number which automatically pops up when I am on the banks log in page. How do I stop this? Also when I signed up for this firefox help it asked for an email address and all my email addresses poped up for me to chose from. I didn't like this either. Appreciate any help. If these features can't be turned off whats the last version I can use that won't do this? cheers Neil

I have a lot of bookmarks, they use to be sorted by date, but now they are sorted randomly after I changed computers. If I click control shift O it brings up the bookmarks, now I know you can go under "views" then "sort", then "added", but that still does not sort it properly. I just recently bookmarked a random page, tagging with a name so I remember which one it is. Now if I do this correctly that new bookmark I made should either be on the bottom or the top of the page after I sort it. But that is not the case. It's just mixed in somewhere in the middle. I tried sorting a few different ways, but no luck. PLEASE HELP!

Recently the V-like icon/button appeared at the right-hand end of the top line of my Firefox windows. This Tab Search could be invaluable to some, but I have no need for it. If I start to get too many tabs I just use another window. However, I click on it constantly when I intend to minimize the window. I have been clicking on the - icon/button in EVERY WINDOWS APPLICATION since Windows began, and as it has ALWAYS been the LEFT-MOST item in the UPPER RIGHT CORNER I haven't had to think about it in decades. But now it isn't the left-most, that is now tab search.

Please, please, PLEASE provide a configuration option to remove Tab Search from the top line.

Thanks!

For example my Work bookmarks don't need to be same as home bookmarks, but I may need some of them. I can't copy paste each one manually.

So, I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I recently tried setting up XEMU and that had some display UI issues for me. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but after I tried setting it up all the text on Firefox is too big. The toolbars, menus, settings etc. look okay but on webpages the text is way too big. I've tried about:config settings, changing my Windows resolution, and other things, but nothing has fixed my issue.

Firefox is NOT importing my Safari passwords, even when using a .csv file and the advanced settings method -- about:config signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled

I tried several times but the logins listed in Firefox never reflect any change whatsoever. I have no idea what is going wrong because I follow all the steps everytime. I restarted Firefox even thinking that it would show up after refreshing, but no.

Any more suggestions or help would be much appreciated.

I logged into my Firefox account on a public computer, however, when I logged off, all of my passwords, open tabs and bookmarks are still showing up on the Firefox browser on this public computer.

Nothing I have tried to remove it from this public computer has worked.

I have tried the following:

  • logged off of my Firefox profile from this public computer
  • unsync from this computer, sync is now off and disabled.
  • Clear ALL history, including cookies, cache, active logins, search....
  • Restarted this public computer several times, including a complete shut down.

And none of it has worked. Currently, when anyone opens Firefox on this public computer, all of my saved tabs will open, even though I'm logged off and unsynced. Also, if anyone goes to Firefox settings on this computer, they will be able to see ALL of my saved passwords on my Firefox account, also, even though I'm logged off and unsynced.

Please help. I need to remove my Firefox account from this public computer without deleting it off my personal laptop.

Thank you.

Hello, I recently had to reinstall windows due to a virus. However, I'm unsure how to open or sync my old profile into Firefox. I can see the old tabs on my PC before I reinstalled windows, but I can't see my bookmarks or re-open that session. I tried to use the launch profile in new browser, but it just gives my new profile from this new installation.

I really like the new Firefox View, but I'd love to be able to get to the view with a keyboard command. I tried treating like the first tab (Cmd+1), but that doesn't work, nor does Cmd+0. Hovering over it doesn't reveal a keyboard shortcut. It doesn't appear on any of the menus, so I'm at a loss as to how to assign a custom control.

Thanks so much!
