I recently installed Firefox version 120.0.1 on Linux Lite 6.6 and logged in to my Mozilla and Firefox accounts, then synced my data. In the past, when I used Ubuntu Desktop 22.04, this method would display all the bookmarks I had saved on other devices that also use Firefox. However, for this case, syncing did not successfully display bookmarks in the Firefox toolbar.
I then tried exporting bookmarks to an HTML file, then importing them into the newly installed Firefox using the Bookmarks Manager, but the window for selecting the HTML file did not open, so I couldn't import bookmarks.html into the new Firefox installed on Linux Lite 6.6. I also tried restoring from the Bookmarks Manager, but the window for selecting the HTML file did not open either.
Is there another way to transfer these bookmarks to the newly installed Firefox on Linux Lite?

My laptop died. I purchased a new one and pulled the SSD drive from the dead laptop and hooked it up to the new laptop with a SATA to USB cable and have access to the drive now. How do I pull all the information that was in Firefox (bookmarks, open tabs when laptop died, etc.) from the old drive to the new laptop?

Hi, I have a lot of bookmarks that are specifically made to always open in a specific container.
After updating to 121 I'm always asked if I want to open the URL in a container.
How can I get rid of the question and just always assume "Yes"?
Thanks, Henrik

I started Firefox and left the room. When I returned it asked me if I wanted to "Refresh" Firefox. I said yes. Now I have lost my bookmarks, history, etc. I have a profile from a backup. But learned I can't just move it into "Profiles" directory.' I've tried removing/reinstalling Firefox, etc. etc. As it is now, I have a Firefox that tries to start, but says "your profile can't be loaded." How do I reinstall my backups and history, etc.? I have RTFM, but it just dug me in deeper.
All help's appreciated. (Will be away until tomorrow morning) -Dennis

I have used Firefox with sync since sync were released. Today (25th dec), all of a sudden hundreds of saved passwords are gone, just 9 out of at least 200.
I have changed the password for my account and logged in. Tried to logout and login again but just 9 passwords is found, extremely frustrating!
Anyone got a clue what has happened?

Hello,
My old computer which I had all my bookmarks and passwords stored on it has died. I got a new one and installed Firefox, but can't seem to see any of my old settings. I did not back them up as I assumed they were all stored on the cloud. Is there a way for me to get them back? (including all the websites I stored).
I don't have anywehre else to import the data from.
Thank you and Happy New Year, Ori

When I open the Manage Bookmarks in Firefox I have thousands (not exaggerating) of recently bookmarked items. How to I delete all of them? I think I turned that feature off via the browser.bookmarks.showRecentlyBookmarked. I changed it from True to False I have tried deleting them one by one but it seems like they recreate and I am not making any progress deleting. How do I delete all of them?
Thank you.
