Hi, I cannot import my Firefox bookmarks from my macbook pro 2021 to my macbook pro 2024. When I select "import data", only Safari show up, not Firefox, which has been my default browser for many years. Please help me, thanks, cindi

I want to import web page bookmarks from MS Edge. I tried to do it per the settings help page, but I cannot get my firefox bookmarks to populate with the ones from my Edge browser. This problem is a deal breaker that may send me (under duress) back to MS Edge, and I really don't want that.

Good afternoon, I had to format my PC and when I installed Firefox, when I logged in, I noticed that it didn't import the bookmarks I had associated with the account (as I always do) or the saved passwords. Everything disappeared. Why? Can I recover this data? Thank you.

I have just completed a new installation of Ubuntu 22.04 and opened Firefox. On the Settings page, I'm seeing a message that says, "Your browser is being managed by your organization." My device is a personal home desktop not connected with any organization. Why am I seeing this message on a brand new installation?

I am trying to import my bookmarks from my Firefox account on my old laptop into my new laptop. I created an .html export and moved it onto my new laptop. After executing the import, Firefox indicated that 350 bookmarks were imported but I only see the 4 bookmarks that it imported from my Edge browser (which I did not even want).

I have many computers and occasionally I wish to change OS. Is it possible for me to save my toobar of links and then to insert them when I install a new Firefox or other browser?

Hello Mozilla Support Team,

I have been using Firefox for a long time, and recently I upgraded my Windows system. Before the upgrade, I had set Firefox to open PDFs directly in a PDF Reader other than Firefox’s built-in PDF viewer, and it worked perfectly. However, after the upgrade, Firefox now shows the "Opening when completed" message and opens PDFs slowly, instead of opening them immediately in my chosen PDF Reader.

I have checked the settings, cleared the cache, refreshed Firefox, and even tested with other software, but the issue persists. The settings for handling PDFs are still the same, but they don't seem to work as they used to.

Can you please assist me in resolving this issue? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

I recently importing bookmarks from another browser accidentally. I'd like to try and restore the bookmarks along with the passwords that I previously had. How can I do this? I tried to do a restore, but only found options from three or four years ago. Is there a way that I can import the bookmarks from last November?

I have used Firefox for many years without opening a Firefox account and have accumulated many bookmarks. My computer has just had its operating system and solid state hard drive replaced and all of the old files and data transferred to the newly installed hard drive. I just now opened a Firefox account so I could ask the question about how I might recover the bookmarks and load them in Firefox. After reading some of your support pages it seems likely that the bookmark file was transferred into the new operating system. I would like to find out how these old bookmarks can be loaded to the Firefox program now loaded onto my computer.

I have followed all of the on line instructions to move/copy Bookmarks from Firefox Nightly (current version as of 20February025) to regular Firefox browser. Both are running on same machine. Nightly install is also running Firefox ad blockers. Following all of the instructions on line I can find to accomplish, but cannot move book marks to Firefox. Have copied bookmarks from Firefox Nightly as HTML file to stand alone device but unable to get the bookmarks to import from stand alone device into Firefox. Assistance please.

I followed these directions - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer but Firebox only exports this data in the bookmarks.html file and attached image! Bookmarks Menu

How can export all of my bookmarks in Firefox?

Hello, I'm currently using a Macbook Air, Early 2014, that still works perfectly fine for my needs. But it runs with OS X 10.9.5 and Firefox 78.15.0esr, that unfortunately can no longer be updated. That wouldn't be a problem to me since I do a very limited use of the computer, but now I'm getting the message "Your Firefox may start to have problems on January 14, 2025 since updates are not available for this OS". What should I do if I still want to use this device with Firefox to browse the internet? If it is impossible to keep using Firefox, any suggestions for an alternative browser that may still work? Safari is no longer an option. Thanks a lot for any and all replies

My laptop died and I have the SSD in a caddy connected to a spare PC. In order to import logins it looks like I need to convert the existing logins.json file to a csv. Not so keen to upload this to an online site. Tried excel to no avail. I have also attempted to copy and paste with Firefox closed. The file is there but passwords do not load into Firefox. Any suggestions appreciated.

this is supposed to have a QR code, but it does not load. I have attached a still screenshot below.

I also cannot upload images using Firefox to Messenger. The large purple image is a result of an upload, but it should be a picture of a woman saved from Krita.

I tried a setting called "Refresh Firefox" and that fixed it but only for less than a day. whats going on?

new to firefox, i just did a blunder. i want to keep firefox separate from chrome. i accidentally had it transfer all chrome history, bookmarks, etc. trying desperately to undo. any help w/b appreciated.

I'm trying to import my passwords; what I've read says I will find Logins and Passwords in the menu represented by three bars at the top right of my foxfire sign in page. The problem is I have three dots, not three lines, and nowhere do I see Logins and Passwords, just Passwords, and there's no import data option there. Sorry if this is lame. I'm old and clueless in the world of tech. Also, thanks for any assist.
