For the past few days I have had a problem where Firefox does not render specific items correctly. This includes the preview of pdf pages on the left hand side when opening a pdf with firefox (not the actual pages itsself just the preview), as well as some of the icons from specific extensions, certain items on maps (for example on google maps) and the list goes on. Im running Firefox on Windows 11 and have never had this problem before. I have the following up to date Version 111.0.1 (64-bit). I recently, at a similar time to this problem appearing changed Browser privacy from standard to strict, but have since changed this back due to the following message under 'strict': "This setting may cause some web sites to not display content or work correctly. If a site seems broken, you may want to turn off tracking protection for that site to load all content." Changing this back however has not fixed the problem. I have attached some images and would appreciate if someone has any ideas what I could do to fix this...

Many Thanks

I signed on and when I made an account I clicked save log in, then it sometime after i entered the wrong password logging in and a popup said "Save New Password" or whatever even though the new login failed because it was the wrong password-- so I clicked Enter, thus erasing my previously saved real password for this website. Now I can't get into the account because I don't have my password.

Additionally, I entered the wrong EMAIL so I can't even click "forgot password" to get a recovery email, and I can't change my password without entering my current password.

Is there a way to recover this data? Again 1. Made an account with password- saved with firefox 2. Tried logging in, entered wrong pass , pop-Up showed 'update password' fast, I clicked enter 3. Now my password is gone.

Hope someone can help me Thanks

...when I open Amazon Prime video nothing works on the page ... it freezes ... cannot close (x out) ... need to force close using CCleaner program. Other open Firefox pages freeze at the same time ... Amazon chat was open in separate page and the chat page froze as well. ...the same with Netflix ...the same with video pages accessed by clicking on link in CNN news items I do not get an error message ... just total freeze.

Neither Malwarebytes nor Norton think it is a virus.

Firefox has been my standard for years, but today an Amazon customer service rep suggested I try Chrome to access the Prime video site. CHROME WORKS. I therefore conclude there is a glitch in Firefox. Note that I clear all cookies after every internet session with the CCleaner program.

Why are my pages freezing? Can you suggest a fix?

This is for Firefox 111.0.1 (64-bit) on a Windows 11 PC.

I'm going to try and be absolutely clear about this so please pay attention to what I'm trying to explain.

Let me state this simply first. I want to add websites of my own choosing to the Firefox Home page. I can't find any option to do so.

Where: In settings, in the HOME section, I have Homepage and new windows as well as New Tabs set to Firefox Home. This is exactly what I want. Firefox Home is the start page I see when I open up Firefox and before I go to any websites. This page contains boxes with images inside them that when clicked will take you to a website. (This is also where I have Pocket articles pinned as well.) What: The instructions that multiple posts refer to are INCORRECT. So please keep in mind that I have a hamburger menu to the right of my address bar and NOT three dots. In that menu there is NO pin to HOME. In fact, I can't find anything anywhere under any of the settings that says pin to home, nor does the gear in the upper right hand corner give me any options to add new websites to the group of ones already there. I have been through multiple posts about this issue and the answers have been all over the place and NONE of them have ever addressed this correctly. I DO NOT want to edit ones already there, I want to add my own.

Question: How can I pin my own website to the firefox home page?

I often look up links/webpages on my phone and then transfer them to Firefox to view later. In the past, when I opened a link in firefox, then dragged the link to a specific folder on the Bookmarks toolbar, it would display the header of the link as the "name" of it. Now, when I transfer a link to a folder on the Bookmarks toolbar, it always sets the URL of the link as the "name" of the bookmark. How do I make it so that when I drag a link to the bookmarks toolbar it saves with the header rather than the URL.

If this helps, I'm using MacOS most of the time.

I've attached an image of what it's like now. The header names are before, the urls are after.
