Firefox Support Forum

I'm on Windows 10 Firefox 87.0 (64 bit). I have two firefox profile. The two prifile sync to my firefox account and have the same addons enabled.

I'm investigating for a cooky of one well defined site

Why I have different cookies for this site depending of the firefox profile active ? ( Of course firefox option cooKies are identical ) ( Of course if I check the cookies.sqlite of the two profile they are different for the same site )

Where I can check to discover this different behaviour ?

Please don't esitate to ask me more info if You need

I got a new little start-up error from Firefox (I only have one GPU - AMD/ATI RV620 FirePro 2450):

$ firefox [GFX1-]: More than 1 GPU detected via PCI, cannot deduce vendor [GFX1-]: PCI candidate 0x1002/0x95cd [GFX1-]: PCI candidate 0x1002/0x95cd

I want to report this new little Firefox bug. I used the Firefox menu "Help | Submit Feedback" but it tells me:

"Please check back soon: We've paused submissions to this form so that we can improve how we collect feedback. Looking for support for Firefox or another product from Mozilla? Just head to Support.Mozilla.org"

Many people would stop right there, but I kept trying.

As instructed, I went to https://support.mozilla.org/ and got the "Search Support" page.

I used ^F and searched for the word "bug" on that page. Nothing. I searched for "report" and only found "Report Trademark Abuse".

Many people would stop right there, but I kept trying.

Under "Get Help" I selected "Firefox" which led me here to "Firefox Support":

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox

I again ^F searched for the word "bug" on that page. Nothing. I again searched for "report" and only found "Report Trademark Abuse".

Many people would stop right there, but I kept trying.

In the search box I typed "how do I report a Firefox bug". The top item on the first page of 246 pages returned was "How do I submit a bug for Firefox Sync?" but nothing about reporting a bug for Firefox itself.

Many people would stop right there, and I did.

Nobody is going to go looking through the other 245 pages of search results to find out how.

Why do you make it so hard to report a Firefox bug? Why isn't the answer to that obvious question the top search result on the Firefox Support page? Why do I even need to search for it at all -- it should be right on the page: "How to report a bug in Firefox"

(NOTE: This is not a request asking how to report the bug. I know how. This is a request asking you to fix the web site so that *finding* how to report a bug is easier. Much easier. If you want a great product, make it easy for your users to give you feedback.) I should probably submit this via Bugzilla but you disabled my account due to "inactivity" so I can't.

Hallo und guten Tag,

ich möchte gern mehrere websites als Startseite haben, wenn ich den Firefox browser öffne. Wie das geht wird auf der Firefox Seite sehr gut erklärt.

Zwar ist es mir gelungen, google als Startseite durch drag & drop auf das Haus Symbol zu ziehen. Jetzt würde ich habe gern weitere Registerkarten als Startseite festlegen.

Wenn ich (wie in der Erklärung) jedoch auf die Menüschaltfläche mit den drei Strichen klicke und danach auf "Startseite" klicke, ist das Fenster "Startseite und neue Fenster" leider inaktiv, so dass ich nicht weiterkomme. Wie kann ich dieses inaktive Fenster aktivieren. Wo liegt der Fehler.

Ich hoffe sehr, dass mir bei diesem Problem jemand helfen kann und würde mich über eine Antwort sehr freuen. Vielen Dank im Voraus!

Beste Grüße, Sabine

Hi guys i'm new in the forum so i have no idea if anybody else allready had my problem,i've tried to fix it myself but i cant seem to get it done. Yesterday i had a problem with my OS linux,and i had to reinstall the system,while i was pretty sure i had all bookmarks saved in an external HD i went straight to a quick format and reinstall of the OS,after installed all the due system update.

The Problem:

While i was importing the bookmarks.html i stored in external HD i noticed that nothing was being added in the bookmarks of Firefox,so i tried few times just in case i was doing something wrong but still nothing was being added in the bookmarks,so i tried to import the bookmarks on Tor Browser and the same thing happened nothing was imported. So it came to my mind that the .html file could've been damaged. Now i tried many ways to open the file either in command line or text editor i even tried using libreoffice,in the case of text editor,command line such gedit,pico,nano it loaded the file but it was heavily encrypted,in the case of libreoffice shortly after i tried to open the file popped up a message telling me that the file was corrupted and libreoffice couldn't read it and stopped.

I need a solution to either fix the .html file or decrypt it so i can recover the web addresses inside and it would be very bad for me since my bookmarks.html is 3.3Mb large with ALOT of bookmarks inside.

Can anybody tell me how to?

Thank you in advance for any help or suggestion that may help me to retrieve my bookmarks. Ludo.

P.S. OS Linux BackBox 7 up to date along with it latest version of Firefox that update server provides me.

I already tried deleting the cache and restarting firefox with addons disabled. So i don't know what's going on. I worried and I'm confused. I was in the process of editing and it just suddenly stopped responding and started giving a 404 error. Now I'm editing it on chrome Website https://helplinemedical.com

I have recently migrated back to Firefox from Chrome. I followed the instructions to import my bookmarks and forgot that I was logged into my work chrome account, so those bookmarks were imported. When I followed the same procedure using my personal google account, the procedure did not work. Is there a way to import bookmarks from multiple google accounts into Firefox? Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi there. Apple Support have helped me complete a clean install of the OS on one of our iMacs. They don't want to risk reinstalling any problems by using the full Time Machine back-up to set up the iMac as it all was. To rebuild Firefox, they have suggested finding and copying across the contents of the Profiles folder. Firstly will this work? Secondly, from the screen shots attached, does it look like I have found the correct Profiles folders and should I simply copy and paste the contents of the Profile folder across from Time Machine (backup) to the clean install Profile folder on Anna's iMac. (I have already optimistically copied them onto the desktop from Time Machine). Should I delete the contents in the clean folder before pasting in the contents from the back-up?

hi, whoever reads this. I've noticed a problem recently in some websites where certain elements (e.g. logos and icons) completely disappear and get replaced by strings of text, which I'm assuming is the code that is used to create them. Usually, it's just one icon, typically a search or menu icon, but there have been more drastic cases, such as the screenshot of the Encyclopaedia Britannica website that I attached. Notice that many buttons, while still functional, are covered with strange text. One thing I'm suspecting is that I intentionally or inadvertently disabled an element (or something of that sort, sorry for my ignorance in the specificities) ages ago that was supposed to make these work, but I don't remember what I disabled, if I ever did. But other than that, I have no clue what causes this. In Tor, where I don't have an account and never interfered with the setup or settings, everything seems to work just fine; the buttons are right there. Hope someone can be of help.

I know how to get rid of the title words and only have icons on the Bookmarks toolbar. But there used to be a way to have the title words (not the URLs) display when I hover over the icons. That function seems to be missing. How can I restore it? Thanks.

Some websites do not load if an ad-blocker extension is enabled. In FireFox Windows Browser, how do I disable u block origin on some certain websites? I don't want to disable ad-blocker and then enable it again and again.

I use https://www.swapadvd.com/ (https://www.swapadvd.com/members/my_lists/wish_list.php). In the past, Over time the site logs me out but when I return, it logs me back in. Lately, when I return it tries to log me in but it then loops. Clearing all site data seems to eventually stop the loop. But I have no idea which site is storing the data that causes the loop. Is there some way to determine the problem site so I can block it from storing site data? Or automatically delete all site data? Rick Grayson [email]@sbcglobal.net

Every time I close Firefox windows, I'm logged out of all websites I had been logged in to. This doesn't happen automatically at a certain point in time, it only happens when I close all windows. I already tried the about:config thing that was in the solution for another person who had a similar problem, but it didn't work. This has been going on for about a month or two now.

myself and others are getting an error 400 message on year01.com website. its fine in chrome and safari. Your technical support key is: 2d48-81c1-582e-c5e4

The last update eliminated my list of last-accessed bookmarks. It also eliminated the ability to right click on a photo and get image information. Why and how do I fix this?

Hi, .html files which I've downloaded onto my hard drive as complete web pages won't work if they are moved to another directory. Is there a work-around for this ? Thanks in advance. afk

In the website bugzilla.mozilla.org, I cannot create a new account. I go to the create account page, but it says I need to log in before I can view it. I don't think I can, since I need to create an account before I can log in to create an account, and it presumes that I have an account before I can create one.

Is this actually intended, or is this a bug? If this is something I need to report on bugzilla, it will be difficult to do so, as I do not have an account.
