Firefox Support Forum

Hello I need help with the bookmarks. I recently performed a clean format on my computer for a fresh start. Knowing my bookmarks and save files are linked on my account, figured it would be safe since I've synced from the same account before. Problem is when logging in to firefox, my bookmarks didn't sync anymore. Please help thank you.

Hi all, I have downloaded the new firefox 89. I have always had the Google search text box selected for display on my Firefox page. However, I can no longer enter text into it, all text I enter is re-directed to the firefox URL search box. So what is the point of being able to specify a search engine display on the homepage and how can I change the operation back to what is used to be - and indeed SHOULD be. When you select a text box for input by placing your curser in the box, text should ALWAYS be directed to that cursor position otherwise you have complete mayhem!

Since my latest update i havent been able to use the search bar in the middle of my home page. It keeps going up to the address bar at the top of the page. How do i change this back. Thank you

Ive been using the Inspector as usual and all of a sudden i get this black screen going on when i hover over the Insepctor, it worked before and now it happens every time i try it.

ive already tried to reinstall firefox but it just doenst seem to work.

In the options for opening a new tab why do I only have the choice of Firefox default OR Blank Page. is it not possible to add the option for custom URL just like in the homepage setting ?? Very annoying I have to say.

In version 89 running on windows there is no "options" setting in the three bar file. Previously I had things running so that if I opened a new window it came up with my chossen browser (Startpage). Now if I do that it opens a new tab instead of a window and does so in Firefox. So then I try to find "options" but its not there. So I go to settings and it offers me an option to open in tabs instead of new windows. Implication is that the default is a new window. SO I make sure thats not ticked and I close firefox and reopen it. No difference. Then I come at it the other way ie to tell the tab to despay my home page but it wont let me do that either. Choices there are only a blank page or (yes you guessed it) Firefox. All help gratefully recieved.

My firefox page has a google search bar and when i try to type in it it goes to the url address bar. The page looks different also. How can this be fixed and is live chat available to assist with this? I have added a snip & sketch so you can see what is going on.

As always, there are two boxes in which to enter search subjects. It has always been my practice to use the larger one, in the middle of the page. Lately (after the homepage's appearance has changed) when I type in the big box and enter it jumps up to the smaller box and will not let me use the other. When I enter a search topic I get a whole list of referrals to intermediary sites and the one I want is far down the page.

I will have to look for a new browser if this can't be fixed. I am very unhappy with this situation.

Hi! I don't like new Firefox appearance (version 89.0). UI elements became large and not comfortable for using (tabs esp.). Please, provide a way to revert version 89.0 UI changes.

When I try to access a certain website I get the following message "The (name of company) website is currently unavailable due to system maintenance." I confirmed with the company that their website is working. I cleared the Firefox cache and history. I did a Firefox refresh. I tried accessing website with another browser and it worked fine. I tried restarting my computer. Still Firefox not working for that one website. What is the solution to fix this issue?

I want to use the Windows 10 multiple desktop feature so that I can have different applications running on each desktop. But when I have Firefox running on any desktop it always appears on all the others as well. If I have Edge running it will only appear on the desktop on which it is launched or subsequently psotioned.

How can I fix this for Firefox?

Hi , I have a problem with Two-step authentication of Firefox Account, first i wanted tu use Microsoft Authenticator as i use it on other accounts when i scan QR-code it adds account in app but on next step when i must enter 6 digital code it shows me this error: "incorrect two-step authentication code". i can not understand what is the problem . after that I Choose Google Authenticator but it appears same problem...Can you help me with it?

How can I separate the search bar from the address bar. Since the update to Firefox version 89.0, a search question typed into the search bar appears as a question in the address bar. While the search can still be completed, I prefer the query to be shown in the search bar as it was prior to the update. How can I do this?

My firefox installed a new update, 89, and now my tabs are missing, except that the active tab is floating down at the center bottom of the screen. i can still navigate with keyboard shortcuts, but i don't know how many i have open, what they are, and personally DO NOT like navigating with shortcuts if i don't have to.

why is it necessary to keep messing with tabs? weren't they just fine below the address bar back in the day? How is ruining the user experience worth whatever was even trying to be done here?

image is how my firefox looks right now

In new version of Firefox (89) Default theme is installed but refuses to load properly it looks like the Light theme, when i am switching it to Light theme and after Default theme there is no difference it looks like Light theme anyway...Can you help me with it?

I have a web page which includes the following header:

WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="xxxx"

where xxxx is a text string, the name of the realm. This header causes the browser to pop-up a dialogue box in which the user should enter a user name and password. The dialogue box is functioning correctly. However, there is a problem with what it displays. It should include the name of the realm ("xxxx" in this example), but it does not do so. It seems that this problem has only started occurring recently. Until a little while ago, the dialogue box used to include the sentence: 'The site says "xxxx".' Why does it no longer do so?
