Need help. Just installed Firefox on Windows 11 on a new computer. I tried to sync the bookmarks so that it was like all the other versions I've had. But, I can't. I can put bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar, but where I used to have the Bookmarks Menu as a STAR on the top right of monitor I can't seem to do it. I miss opening a folder and having multiple bookmarks opening all at once. A little help please. Thanks...

Firefox will not open this website (it is my personal photography website.) I'm using Windows 7 64 bit. Seemingly, every other website, but this one will open using Firefox. I have always been able, to use Microsoft's browser, to open this website, except, now, they no longer support W7/64. Thanks, for any help, David Johnson

I don't use severe settings, but X.com is most of the time blocked.

I can view X.com in Troubleshoot mode.

Winnowing all the apps would take a very long time as I use several dozen add-ons.

Normally I need to view X.com using Private window.

I am on v130 of Firefox and on some websites it just freezes. I cannot tab across. Even if i refresh nothing. But when i use Chomer all working fine. Read some things on how to correct this but does not work. Any advise?

Just visited Telstra and bought a new dongle and SIM Card. All worked at the showroom now home can't get access to the internet via my dongle? Blue light went throiugh continuous to blue blinking suggesting its connected but any inetrnet address gets the same result - "You are not connected to the internet?"

Back in the days it was always possible to change Proxy port number (or, I believe, any other numeric value) by moving the mouse scrolling wheel when the cursor is placed inside the related field. I don't know whose intelligent decision it was to disable this functionality, but it has gone since the last update (v130.0). Now the window scrolls regardless of the cursor position. It looks like it works fine, but for those who are used to this kind of functionality, it turns out to be inconvenient.

Please, roll this back before it's too late :) Thank you.

I'm trying to add the Dashlane extension to my laptop running Windows 10 or 11, and Firefox. But I cannot do this as my computer is in safe mode (troubleshoot mode?) How do I get out of this mode so I can add Dashlane extension. Thanks for your help;. Jonnie

I am curious if anyone has any experience using Firefox and the Weston keyboard. My hardware is a TI-skam62evm with a touch screen. When I run firefox the weston keyboard does not ever pop-up.

I can get the keyboard to show up with chromium if I pass in the --enable-wayland-ime flag when I launch chromium.

I did some digging and my trail ended with looking at WAYLAND debug logs that show weston advertising zwp_input_method_v1 and zwp_text_input_manager_v1 but firefox not binding. What input method does firefox use?

[2307619.264] wl_registry@18.global(20, "zwp_input_method_v1", 1) [2307619.295] wl_registry@18.global(21, "zwp_text_input_manager_v1", 1)

Any thoughts on how to use firefox with the Weston keyboard would be greatly appreciated.

Why Firefox lacks having right click option (context menu) for multiple search engines like Chrome (Chromium browsers) and Edge has somewhat "Chrome-like omnibar in Mozilla Firefox"?

If I am using a certain search engine as default but don't use it all the time or want to use another without changing the default search engine or want to search a term or sentence via any search engine, then Firefox has no such option or addons (yes, checked thoroughly for latter).

Opera has from day one, Vivaldi also has it, Chrome allows it via extensions, Edge does via addons, Brave as chrome does via addons, Naver Whale (South Korean browser, underrated, seriously) has options to put more than 1 search engine for search results.

Adding images below for reference.

Why Firefox is seriously so old and outdated and nowhere close to standards of 2024 and 2025?

Somebody made a post 10 years ago around 2014 🤯🤯🤯 and Firefox, as usual went their way as they are doing now.

I just setup this firefox extension to help me manage my 800+ tabs - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-tab-groups/ . This might have even been causing Firefox to crash and my computer to restart, but I'll save that for a separate issue. The extension has some suggested shortcut keys, particularly Ctrl + Backtick and Ctrl + Shift + Backtick to switch between next and previous Tab groups. I tried to go to Manage Extension Shortcuts in settings, and tried to specify the keys Ctr + Backtick, but the input box would not accept the key. In fact it only seems to accept Ctrl + <alpha-numeric> key. or Ctrl + Alt + <alphanum>

Is there anyway to enable this? Most keys like Ctrl + alphabets appears to be already mapped by firefox's default mappings. my Ctrl + numbers are also similarly mapped by another tab extension to switch tabs.

Thanks, arun
