Firefox Support Forum

I find the "Home Screen Shortcuts" feature very helpful, but I cannot find a way to have the same shortcuts synchronized between my devices (laptop,desktop,mobile). It'd be nice that the "Sync now" future pulls our saved shortcuts from our home screen to avoid having to adding them all over again whenever we log into a new device.

OS: W11 FF version: 104.2

My recent upgrade made my homepage (a new tab), (which is my history 4 lines) and (recent searches 4 lines) completely gone.. Blank, Nothing, etc. If i go and uninstall firefox (Windows 10) , it gives me the option to refresh (or what ever it says). When firefox restarts my page it is just the way it should be with my 4 lines of history, and 4 lines of recent visits. If I hit a new tab it is blank, and void of what it should be, 4 lines of my history, anf 4 lines of recent visits.. Works the same everytime I have tried it.. Any clues??????

I just want my homepage back as 4 lines of history, and 4 lines of recent. By the way, settings are still the same Homepage = (4 lines of history, and 4 lines of recent)

Image before upgrade, and image after upgrade.

Thanks for any help

there are websites that have separate subdomains for their different language pages and every time i stumble upon the different language subdomain, it gets locked to that different language on every site possible and it has done this since the beginning of the times itself... and it is of course very annoying, because then i have to delete all of the cookies for that site and log in again etc etc etc...

for example: https://www.osta.ee/ https://www.osta.ee/ru

after i visit the /ru language page, it gets locked to that language and the only way to get back to the normal main page is to delete the cookies...

i'm not even sure if it still does that(it did couple of months ago), but i am not going to test it anyway, because i dont want to get locked to the language that i do not understand....

but you can basically test this with any site that has different pages/subdomains for their different languages etc....

and how can this be fixed then

How do I sync between to laptops? I would like to sync my settings and bookmarks. QR code generation is ridiculous. I do not want firefox on my phone.

Many Thanks,

Is there a way to turn off the scaled video stream permanently that is usually placed at the lower right of the web page. Is there a name for this. SFgate.com forces a scaled video stream when the main video stream is out of view. You can X out of the stream but it comes back eventually.

How does firefox know my old email? Upon entering an old email to sign in, firefox prompts for me to enter the "primary" email for the account. How do I delete this old email? My account clearly shows no other "secondary" email provided. Will I have to delete my account?

When I schedule a post on my Wix blog site, it indicates I'm in the New York time zone. My time zone is Perth, Western Australia and my MAC computer is set up for this. How can I change the Firefox browser time zone setting to Perth, Western Australia too?

Well, I'm trying to make use of the option to delete cookies without deleting some that I allow, but apparently it's buggy. I want Firefox to clear cookies every time I close the browser, however, I manually added some exceptions and even then the browser deletes these exceptions when I close it, if I can add exceptions, it's so they won't be deleted when closing.

Currently I use Firefox and Brave Browser, I want to use only Firefox, but the lack of an option to create shortcuts like in Brave is what prevents me from doing that, these shortcuts are extremely useful and practical, but in Firefox the only way to do this is through links that will open in the browser, which is practically useless because I can create shortcut links within the browser itself. I also performed a procedure in the browser's advanced settings so that I could have this option, but it doesn't work either. So I was wondering if there is any other way to do this.

I love my old HP Pavilion d7-3183, and love the way Firefox, and Trend Security software run on my laptop. But, every few days at "start-up", I'm asked to continue my Microsoft Edge setup, which I have only the option to "continue", or delay. I delay, but then my Firefox browser has to be re installed, themes, add-ons, etc. This is a problem. I believe I've exhausted the info I have to try and suppress this very annoying intrusion by MS Edge.

Amazon photographs no longer load correctly, and pages load in a really weird fashion not at all like I am use to.

Using mac with latest Monterey 12.5.1, mozilla 104.0.2 (last version had problem too). Have to switch to chrome to be able to use my Amazon prime account now.

I use only the dark screen, however somehow I have 4 different themes which keep rotating. Can I please delete the ones I don't want to use. The nocturnist by DraKul78 I like, and would like to remove the others, I can't understand why when I disable the others, they keep coming back. Going from dark screen to white background is messing up my vision.

I am trying to switch from Safari to Firefox. I would like to transfer all of my bookmarks, passwords, account info and history to Firefox. How do I get everything tarnsferred to Firefox?

By default, search results from the "new tab" page don't open a new tab, because that page is meant to be opened prior to initiating a search. However, I prefer to have the new tab page pinned so that non pinned tabs can all be closed and have something to fall back to other than my pinned tabs.

Therefor, it would be nice to disable search results opening a new tab from this "new tab" page due to how I use it (which is a preference that is required for having pinned tabs since the home page does not open unless all tabs are closed).
