Firefox Community Forum

I have followed the instructions on the Mozilla website but am unable to delete my browsing history. I recently had a power outage and had to have my pc data reinstalled by a computer specialist. would reinstalling Firefox sort my problem?

So I recently reinstalled windows and noticed that if I select the option that asks me each time where a file should be saved before downloading it, the browser appears to begin downloading the file (I can see the .part file in the default folder) but the window that actually allows me to browse for a location in windows explorer never shows up and thus, I am not able to actually download the file. However, if I select the "pick a folder and everything will download to that folder" option, it downloads just fine. I'm wondering if there was a way to reinstall firefox but keep all if not most of my settings and tabs etc.

I can go to any link I've been to previously and went to Live.com to go to Bing to search. I was looking for a recipe for cherry sauce for venison. I'm on a 2017 Imac that's up to date on IOS and Firefox is also up to date. This was not happening this morning.

Whenever my laptop starts up,firefox with all of my tabs always starts up with it. When i rose up earlier in the day and started up my laptop firefox with all my tabs opened up as normal,but this evening everything is gone. I had at least 20 tabs open and they were all important. There was no option to recover the tabs and this isn't the first time this has happened,this is at least the third time that this has happened after the last year and a bit. This is incredibly annoying and frustrating. Is there even any point in asking the community how this can be resolved?

I recently bought an new HP Win 11 PC to replace my current Win 10 machine. Running latest FF 144.0.2 on both. How do I transfer my complete FF profile (bookmarks, bookmark bar, login data, EVERYTHING) to the new PC? Want the new install to be an exact functional copy.

THANKS!

Any idea why Firefox is not supported on this website? https://mypay.dfas.mil

It's been that way for over a decade. Thx.

When i try to print a pdf file trough gmail trough the preview window of the pdf, instead of printing it downloads a pdf file with a very long name (example of real filename: ACFrOgAcZiEDMs3JEBQmIpDaAGloJLSCzqQnju2ahdPe2m6v--kxq5xmHsQ3_OiYnd1RVZ5fR46JDQDXONNeSB2VeMNtaXzW3U7wPL1OahSYDRH2GxIrcVbFC68h2sFQPuJpmH_Id0M_oYukAKAjAq4dkn6a4oiPfF9Un5V3Cw==) which looks like javascript to me.

when I open the pdf file (my default viewer is adobe acrobat) it opens the file instantly with the print dialog open.

I have tried about:config booleans regarding opening and downloading pdfs

I have tried checking firefox settings and there is only "always ask", "save file" and "adobe acrobat" options and no "open in firefox" option and when i make it "always ask" and choose "open in firefox" from that option it just repeatedly gives me the "ask" window on new tabs each time i click ok.

I have also checked popups for gmail, they were not blocked so i have disabled and re-unblocked popups from gmail site

it works on every other site but gmail which is the main place i need to print files from.

I have purchased a new computer and I want ot transfer al my bookmarks, login details etc onto the new one. I have followed the instructions given on your help pages, to no effect. My old computer ruins Firefox under Win 10. The new computer runs the same version under Win 11. I have copied the contents of Profiles from the old to the new, but Firefox says the profile is missing. When I copy and add the folders in Profiles to the Win 11 computer, there is no difference. The names of the folders in Profiles are different on each computer, so I think that it is looking for a particular file/folder name, but I don't know which one. Can anyone help me?

Google appears to be taking over control of my firefox page. When I open Firefox, Google search and other functions appear on screen and take over. Also, most of my saved bookmarks have disappeared .This probably happened when I got tech help to deal with problems accessing my MS and Google accounts. I have always used the Google search engine but it only when I clicked on the search bar. Now it seems to have taken over and I seem only to be ableto access sites using Google Can I restore lost bookmarks so I can go direct to internet sites?

Hello,

I work for a company that integrates with Netsuite via SSO. Users should not be required to reenter their credentials to access the integrated app via a NetSuite subtab. However, this has been an ongoing issue. I thought it had something to do with cookies, but I cannot figure out what is causing this. Here's what happens: A user logs in to Netsuite, looks up a posted document, and clicks on the subtab of the integrated application. They are then prompted to enter their credentials. This prompt keeps repeating whenever the user refreshes a page or opens a tab. It seems like the browser is not retaining or saving the user's credentials. This does not happen to Chrome or Edge users. Is there anything you can do?

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Regards, Mac
