Last night my machine updated itself but now I cannot access Facebook as it says I am using a browser version not supported by FB. I checked and my Firefox browser is indeed up to date. Have I been hacked or what?! Thanks. Geoff

Is there a way to add profile options to the taskbar menu? While I find the normal method reasonable I tend to not always have my browser on screen and want the convenience of opening a specific profile from the taskbar. Is this possible with code edits, if so could I have some assistance with knowing what needs to be done? I have minimal experience at best with coding and while I can follow instructions I don't exactly know what would need to be done to add this option. Thank you very much for listening!

I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, made sure my show bookmarks all the time was on, have been Googling and Googling and reaching out for several hours and cannot find out what happened to all our often-visited sites located under our url bar. I have done everything I know to do. I have tried dragging and dropping and it will not allow me to do that. I never had to sign into anything. Firefox just opened up and there everything happened to be. There is a square with an arrow through it that says Import bookmarks where my bookmarks were on the bookmark toolbar. I can close and open the bookmark toolbar, so I know it is there and open, but there is nothing in it. I have restarted and started my computer. This used to be easy. Right-click a site saved in your bookmark and drag it to the bookmark toolbar or there was a choice to move to or pin to bookmark toolbar. It had to be easy because I do not do complicated. Help, please. I don't have that many more years to live and I don't want to spend them frustrated :O Also, when I open Firefox, I see no paddlock or shield in the search bar. I see both now when I'm in the support page, but not upon the opening of Firefox, which I consider my home page for Firefox browser.

Thank you.

I recently changed my preferences to allow web sites to choose their own fonts, but now that I’ve changed it back, Firefox refuses to use that font or any other that I choose. I’ve tried clearing the cache and cookies, logging out and then logging in again, quitting and restarting, etc., but it still doesn’t work.

What can be done about this problem that should never happen? I’m running Firefox 140.5 ESR on macOS 15.7.1, and my Privacy setting are set to Standard.

Any solutions out there?

I believe I had all this synced in Firefox Settings before I made the upgrade. Like all you fellow former users of Windows 10, I had to upgrade to Windows 11; and did so two days ago. Now, I found that I do not have under History any of the former sites I not only visited but also had tabs open. What can I do, if anything, to recover them? Under the Add-ons Manager, if this helps, I already had the app Tab Session Manager, but don't know how to use it. Thanks to all in advance who may have made this same upgrade. Many out there are still on Windows 10.

I have lost all the short cuts on my home page. As I use these very frequently, this is a big problem for me. I know this problem has been raised previously, but none of the solutions work for me.

I have checked the short cuts still exist in about:config...newtabs.pinned. They are still there. I've refreshed Firefox. I've loaded the latest version I've toggled the number of lines of short cuts in 'customise' I've enabled sponsored short cuts I can get recent activity slots, and curated stories. I do not want to set up a completely new profile as I have an extensive list of bookmarks.

Is there anything else I can do?

The the past year, I've been constantly prompted to manage cookies on various web sites despite clicking on the "Accept all cookies" link or regardless of what settings I change.

This has been happening on numerous secured web sites and on all my computers (I rarely use the browser on my mobile device to access secured web sites). In fact, it happens even if I click on a new page within the same web site. That is, I get the prompt with the choices of "Manage cookies" and "Accept all cookies" on a web site such as with a bank (not exclusively on banking sites) and, when I click on the "Accept all cookies" option, the prompt returns as soon as I click on a link to go to a different page on the same web site.

How do I get rid of this as it requires I act on it. I can't ignore it as it often blocks the view of a large part of the page.
