What a nuisance. As the subject says - I've never had a Primary Password. All of a sudden you're being a nuisance over it, so I've created one via your "Forgot Password" procedure. As I never EVER want Mozilla to remember passwords for me, and that appears to be one of the reasons you give for having a "Primary Password", I find this change highly objectionable. Just regard this as feedback, because I imagine that now I'll be saddled with my "Primary Password" forever, or until I change to a different browser. John Gipps

I don't want websites to store my credit card information. I always say don't save but even websites i have never used have my information. How an I prevent this from being done?

i get confused about which firefox i am using when i click the fox.is it mjcrosoft or or the app i downloaded from the web. can one be deled without messing up the other FFox account  ?

Restored FF to Imac. Attemped to open but get message “a copy of FF is already open to cannot open this one” Spent 6 hours with Apple Support to examine every file and delete anything related to FF or Mozilla except for the VPN program. This did not solve problem. Apple said could do no more and suggeted mozzilla support. How to get rid of the notice and enable opening of FF. on 2024 Imac M4 chip.

I use a 2020-21 MacBook Pro. I ALSO use four different browsers for different types of things. Recently, ONLY IN FF have I been getting this little annoyance in the upper left-hand corner of the window when I open a new window. In don't get it anywhere else and cannot understand what a 'Cntrl-Click (Mac)' (right-click on that other platform) tells me about it. I WAS able to eliminate a SIMILAR nuisance about some sort of groups. The icon was a little box split into four sections. With both, the screen gets a white haze over it until clicking on the little box. . I have included a screen shot of the box in question. . Thanks in advance... .

My Dashlane password manager extension wasn't working, so I deleted it and planned to reinstall it. When I tried to download this extension again, I got the following error message: "Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt."

I have the most recent update of Firefox 147.0.2 (64-bit). Please let me know how to fix this issue, as I heavily rely on this extension to sign in to most websites.

Hi everyone,

I am facing a strange issue with my website's RSS feed when viewing it in the Firefox browser. While the feed seems to parse correctly in Chromium-based browsers, it looks quite unformatted in Firefox.

I’m worried this might be affecting how Firefox users subscribe to my updates. Could someone please check if there is a specific XML rendering issue or if I need to add a particular stylesheet for Firefox compatibility?

I’ve already cleared my cache and tested it on multiple devices, but the result is the same. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

WINDOWS 11. FIREFOX 106.0.1

LATELY, I CANNOT USE MY CREDIT CARD. i INPUT MY SAVED PASSWORD FROM WINDOWS LOGIN.

IT OFFERS CHOICES THEN WHEN I ATTEMPT TO PAY WHAT I WANT TO PAY, THE FORM GOES BLANK AGAIN.

NOT SURE IF THIS IS A WINDOWS ISSUE OR FF, BUT AT LEAST MY ANSWER WILL BE QUICKER HERE.

THANK YOU.

This has happened a few times and confused me but I figured it out tonight. I had a private window open and a regular window open and closed the regular one. When I reopened the regular one all of my pinned tabs were gone. This should be fixed, Firefox should differentiate between the windows and stop closing tabs on the regular window if it's closed before the private one. Kind of an odd thing.

I was able to recover my tabs with a json file thankfully but haven't been able to do so before as I had opened and closed multiple windows trying to figure out where the pinned tabs had gone and the "previous.json" had changed to those new open tabs. It might also be nice to have a few "previous.json" files be created instead of the single one for instances like this.

If I delete my history of the websites I go on or delete my emails in which I use Yahoo and Gmail is there a way to save them in case I need some information from them in the future? Another words, they may be deleted in my history and I delete my emails in which i delete them also from my trash folder can I store them someone else that will let me see them in the future? Thanks

I went through the process of importing all of my old profiles into the new profile manager and I, for one, am stoked that we are joining the big leagues with regards to profile management. This has been a feature that I have been waiting for for quite some time now. I have an extension that allows me to easily switch between the old profiles but a proper, built in solution was necessary.

That is until I launched Firefox the next day and was greeted with my work profile instead of my personal profile. I started digging through the settings and it seems that this is the intended default behavior for profiles. The last profile you had open is the profile that will open by default.

It's fine if the developers want that to be the default but what I also find strange is that I cannot, for the life of me, find a way to change this behavior on Windows. I found it on Linux (I think??) but I dont see a flag for it in the usual places. Maybe I missed it. That is why I am here.

1.) Is there a way to change this default behavior for the new profile manager? 2.) If not, can we plan to add that feature? Currently, this behavior makes the new profile system unusable for me because I need my browser to open to my personal profile when I open a new window.

I'm afraid the community may be tired of me, but it seems this is the only help Firefox is willing to provide for my problems. First, I still can't get the History and Bookmarks to show, although for a while they did. On top of that, a new issue has developed. Firefox exe now shows on my desktop as well as where I actually want it, in the taskbar. When I try to move it from the desktop, the app is deleted from both areas. When I go back to my apps folder, where I choose to keep exe files, and create another shortcut to go in my taskbar, it gets put back on my desktop and the cycle repeats. With all that nonsense going on for a month or more (I've really lost track of the days and hours I've spent on it), my question is should I just uninstall Firefox, reinstall it and then try to get my History and Bookmarks back. Or what would be a better solution? Whoever helps me with this mess has my sincere gratitude. I've used Firefox as my browser for many years without ever having any trouble and am baffled by what's going on now.

I downloaded something today that installed "Cubbie" and Yahoo. I have no interest in either,especially since Cubbie pops up as my search engine. How do I get rid of it? Thanks! BB

I recently downloaded Firefox and made two profiles on it from the hamburger button in the top right. I make one called "Work Profile" and another called "Personal Profile". I was trying to pin each one to the task bar separately because I would use youtube to watch videos/listen to music on one window and do my work in another. I have enabled the group profiles on taskbar so they dont show up together under the same icon and added { -no-remote -P "Profile Name"} to each shortcut in its properties>target on windows explorer.

It just keeps bringing up the choose user profile window but it doesn't even have the two profiles listed that I want.

When I open default then all my profiles are gone in the top right profiles window but if I choose default-release my profiles are there to select again. I am pretty sure firefox just has two things it calls profiles, one is for multiple installs and the other in in each install and I don't know how to fix it now as all my settings/passwords/add-ons are setup and I would like to not have to do it again.
