Firefox Community Forum

I recently was able to successfully install Firefox on my Chromebook via Linux following instructions on the site. I have received notifications about an update from March 14th and I do not know how I can install this update. Can you please walk me through the steps required. It does not seem to install automatically and now my extensions don't appear to be working anymore. Thank you.

Hi. I have purchased a new laptop and am trying to import my firefox data from a previous laptop, the info is also available on my mobile. It isn't working and all the info that came across is jumbled and incomplete. In addition, when in sync mode and opening tabs in firefox, they crash. Could you please assist? Thank you

What color do you use? How do you overcome unreadable text when the link has a background color that makes it indistinct?

The red screenshot text is far more obscure when not magnified by the screenshot.

When I try to sign in to sync I get an error message (attached.) I also get an email saying my Mozilla account has been used (att.)

The second attempt succeeds and I get another copy of the same email (att).

On a website I visit, Firefox is not showing icons. The attached picture shows how it looks in Fifefox on top and Edge on the bottom on the same PC. Things I have done so far:

1) Cleaned cookies and cache 2) Turned off all extensions and virus program 3) Turned off hardware acceleration

Since last month, I'm periodically experiencing problems with AOL's homepage (with its scrolling news articles) not loading properly on my screen, with all links - including the email link - scrunched over to the left hand side of the page and no images appearing at all. I do seem to be able to see all information properly if I switch to MICROSOFT EDGE as the browser, but FIREFOX is - and always has been - my default browser and never had this problem until recently.

i type in something in the text field, i click somewhere and go back to the previous page where i was typing and everything is reset. why? chrome and opera dont do that.

I used to be able to make my own settings in Bing, but since the last update my settings are no longer stored. Each time I change them, when I open a new tab the BIng defaults are used. How do I get Firefox to accept my Bing preferences?

The small green dot in the upper right that notifies me of a pending update is gone, since several months. When I navigate to About Firefox, or in the settings, I can see that a new version is available and it lets me install the update. But I miss being able to see the notification.

Did I disable some setting by mistake? Auto-updates should be turned on as far as I know.

OS: Windows 11 PRO and Windows 11 Home (both 64-bit) Firefox Version: 135.0

Recently set up a computer to use latest version of Firefox. Thought I could just copy and paste the files in the profile folder to the new computer. Found out that didn't work so deleted all the files in the profile folder on the new computer. Copied to a USB stick the Profiles folder on the old computer (according to instructions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles). Pasted the folder to the Profiles folder on the new computer.

Attempted to start the Profile Manage without starting Firefox on the new computer in order to create a new profile and point it to the files just copied. This is where the problem occurs!

Regardless of what I type in the "Run" dialog box, Profile Manager will NOT open! After hitting Enter, it opens Firefox! I've tried typing all of the following in the "Run" space:

firefox.exe -P
firefox.exe -p
firefox.exe -ProfileManager

What am I doing wrong? Any help would certainly be appreciated1

Thanks.

Hello, I cannot access microsoft.com, outlook.com, or hotmail.com without receiving the "Gah. Your tab just crashed" window. I have unistalled firefox and re-installed the most current verison (not importing previous data) with no luck. I have no issues with Safari or Google Chrome accessing these websites. I prefer FireFox but need to access my Microsoft Account & Apps. My co-worker uses the same version of firefox as well as the same OS and has no issues.

Appreciate your help!
