For some reason it updated without asking/notifying me about it. Then after it restarted it reset EVERYTHING. I don't see the Apps anymore, the shortcuts on toolbar are gone/back to defult items & I can't restore any of the past backedup sessions from the past week! I had at least 150+ tabs in 4 windows. And I already tried the "History> Closed tabs"restore thing. It only restores the LAST session, since I've been trying to fix/figure this out for at least 12 hours & nothing has restored the tabs from about 13 hours ago. Note: My Bookmarks & History (I've previously set to saved before the sessions I've had to restart during) are fine, it's only the many tabs that I can't restore is my sudden problem.

Today when using firefox a survey box appeared. I answered the questions. Another window informed me that I had 'won' the opportunity to have an iphone for £1? I did run my security who found nothing wrong with the PC. Is this a scam and not Firefox?

Firefox user of old but got sucked into using Chrome for a year or so. Trying to correct my ways and have installed Firefox on Win 7. Installed OK and starts/loads, but will not open any pages, external or internal html files. Tried safe mode, tried hardware acceleration tip, etc but nothing has changed the unresponsiveness. Really don't want to give up and turn my back, but there is only so much time....

I recently updated the newest Firefox version, at least I think so. I watched the Video about creating and accessing bookmarks. Before the latest version I created many folders and placed websites of many non-profit organizations and other arts resources. Now, when I click the star the follow occurs: Star turns blue and moves to clip board? icon. First option: View bookmark side bar; Second: Show All Bookmarks; Third: View Pocket List (I don't use Pocket); Forth: Bookmarks Toolbar; Fifth: Other Bookmarks; Sixth: Show all Bookmarks. These are fewer options than listed on the Firefox bookmarks video. When I click: Show all Bookmarks a grey and white empty box appears with the the top title Library. When I click Show All Bookmarks, nothing occurs. What's also odd is that when I bring up a website like nypl.org the star turns blue. But I can't find that bookmark, only listed, without a name, of 157

Firefox is beginning to become more of an annoyance than it is worth - most of the reason for this is the continual string of updates, messages, click bars and pop ups it shows on start up.
No these are not spam or bad add ins, they are programmed interruptions inherent to FF.
Users of FF want to get on and do things. Having to close windows with news about the latest update (and there are soooo many updates), or news that the opml feed is now on your desktop (another thing to waste time attending to) or messages about privacy or messages about syncing pages and settings or pop up messages about how FF is private etc are just plain annoying.
It is getting to the point where I expect to wait longer for FF to start and then have to wade through cruft, than it takes to boot the entire Windows 10 OS and deal with the Ms cruft on the log in screens.
If people want to learn, then they will look stuff up. So seriously - stop popping up tabs, notices, messages, dialog boxes and other cruft. Let the users just get on with using FF rather than putting up with cruft about using FF.
FF is now officially slower to start than every other browser we have and slower than me booting an entire windows 10 pc - all because of continuous updates which don't seem to do anything for me - or most users. oh sure, you can say its for security but if you are patching security holes as regularly as you are updating FF then there is something terribly wrong in your programming standards and coding methodologies - not to mention test process.
Its a trend to tell people about your product - but its one that annoys users. We just want to get on with using whatever - so please get out of our way and let us just use the product.
I like FF - but I liker it a lot less than I used to as its now annoying the crud out of me almost every day.
My 10c worth.

Ever since Firefox updated today, it suddenly logged me out from my firefox account. As it was a long time since I last had the login prompt, it took me several attempts to get the correct password. I then received a confirmation email with the code, which I have entered correctly as required. However, it only sent me back to the login screen, stating that I have the wrong password.
I'm suspecting that my account might be locked due to too many attempts, but so far my email account has yet to receive any emails stating that suspicious activity was detected or something similar.
Do I need to reset my password at this point? As my account info would be wiped, I'm not too keen on doing so.

Hello, after doing a Firefox update my browser has stopped working. Right now it is only displaying blank pages and I can not even display the "Options" page. I have tried restarting in safe mode and doing a uninstall/reinstall and the problem is still present. The only page I have been able to pull up is the trouble shooting page (which the text version is attached).

When opening a fresh window/tab on Mozilla Firefox, the address bar is selected by default so you can start typing a url, search, etc (first image).
I would like to change that, so everytime I open a new window/tab the "Search the Web" bar is already selected by default (second image).
All of that while keeping the "Web Search" feature from Options>Home as my homepage.
Any ideas?
Obs: I'm having problems with the "Add images" feature in this forum, so I used postimage.

I cannot save bookmarks or import them from other browsers or save my browsing history. Every time I boot Firefox I get a red bar at the top of my screen that says bookmarks and browsing history cannot be saved because some file is being used one of my internet security programs. I use Malwarebytes and Norton security on my laptop.
I have followed the online instructions several times to try to fix the problem with no luck. I love the speed of the browser because it totally blows Chrome and Edge out of the water but I have type all of my URLs in because I cannot save or import them from my other browsers.
I need help to fix this problem.

Hi: I am trying to decide do I just totally give up on Firefox after all these years and move to Chrome or is there some logical path for addons planned/in process that I do not know about.
It is like Firefox Management Team/Committee team made this technical decision with little understanding on the impact to the developers that had put in hard yards for years, or users who had been using these addons. I am at a loss when I try to understand why would they jeopardise so much.
Since Firefox went to that "new firefox", sorry I dont know the technical lingo, most of the addons I use became unavailable. I have since written to each developer to ask, will they be upgrading their addon and the answer is NO. So basically Firefox is only useful to me if
- I stay in the old version on Mac Sierra OSX (55.0.3).
- For the new windows 10 brand new laptop I tried also to create using the new Firefox and it was very unsuccessful as there are no addons even close to what I was using.
For the Cookies controller there are some close but nothing as good as this addon in terms of how I used it -- manually removed cookies.
On my Mac Firefox 55.0.3, I have the following addons (all these have the LEGACY yellow highlight tag in the list)
1 Cookie Controller
2 Roomy Bookmarks Toolbar
3 Session Manager
4 New Add On Bar
5 Add Bookmarks Here
6 Change Bookmark Recent Folder List Length
7 Open Bookmarks in New Tab
8 Download Status Bar
9 AutoPin Tab
10 Close Tab Button
11 Tab Open/Close Control
12 and uBlock Origin I cannot update as it says on its webpage, with this technical change, it is not supported, so not upgrade it.
Any practical advice?

The bookmark all tabs option in the right click context menu has disappeared, the one that usually appears when you right click a tab. You can still do it by clicking on select all tabs, and then bookmark selected tabs, but as someone who has a lot of windows open with multiple tabs in each, this is somewhat time-consuming. Where is the option to bring back the original button?
As for this feature, it's nice that you can bookmark specific tabs, but I don't understand why the original button had to be removed to make way for it, both options would be good. I think more people will probably bookmark the entire session rather than spending time clicking on each individual tab they want to save, though that's just a guess.
