Firefox Support Forum

Using v116.0.2.

A recent update put a second Firefox icon on my task bar. Each icon requests I set it as default Browser. I deleted one icon, then had to restore all my customization settings. Come today this latest automatic update, again I've got two Firefox icons on my taskbar. One takes me to the old customization, the other to the new customization. I never know where I'm going, and I don't really care. But I want to quit getting those messages demanding I choose between Firefox and Firefox.

Firefox was, in my mind, my default browser. Probably when I installed Edge it fiddled with my settings. So when Firefox requested me to make Firefox my default browser. It asked if I wanted to import some logns/passwords and I clicked yes as I had placed a few passwords in Edge. Oh boy it overwrote my entire login/password database and all that remains is couple of passwords from Edge. Ugh....

tried to sign in with newly created password (on MacBook Air last night) tried on phone would not work or allow it to send to my email and change.

I do not want connection with Social Media, just Fire Fox on computer and iphone 7.Now WHAT ???!!! I would like to speak to a person.

I had my clean restore and had most everything migrated to the update. The man downloaded the bookmarks to a Json file. How do use that to bring my bookmarks back to my screen.

FF says "account disconnected" but I did not disconnect it.

Ok. So reconnect and launch sync. No problem. 4 other machines have FF and syncing works great.

See tabs etc synced just as I am used to from decades of happily using FF.

But close out and restart. WIN 11 new desktop.

Come back to FF and get "account disconnected".

Your thoughts greatly appreciated!

When uninstalling Firefox developer edition my anti virus firewall popped this message:

"Firefox Developer Edition Helper does not have a valid digital signature"

Filename: Un_A.exe

Does anyone know anything about this?

Why, why when being prompted to update, updating fails and I abort (only real choice) is the previous version of Firefox removed? This happens all the time and every time I have to do a complete new install and redefine all my Quick Access menu items. If this happens one more time, I will use someone else's PDF reader. Updating should not be that hard. I have administrator privilege's so why does your software updates fail?

Hi, I uninstalled my old firefox from macbook by going to the 'application' folder and dragging it into the bin I then installed a new firefox However now I have two firefox on my macbook - could anyone tell me how to solve this???

Thanks!

I'm trying to restore Firefox Bookmarks and stored login/passwords from a Time Machine backup of my Macbook Pro. I've read in the Mozilla support articles where this info is stored, but my backups have no Firefox folder under "Applications Support." Did it get eliminated when I signed up with Mozilla in order to get help with this? These files are on my current system, but they only have a few items that I've entered today.

I need to install Firefox on a new laptop under an existing account, but a new account was already created on the new device. All it will let me do is reinstall under the newly created account.

Following this guide

Added some extensions (core/distribution/extensions), added autoconfig (js in core/defaults/prefs and cfg in core), put a user.js in core/defaults/profile with a userchrome.css in core/defaults/profile/chrome)

Then repackaged (step 4), did step 5 and 6 however when the newly formed installer is run I get a 7-zip error saying "the system cannot find the file specified". The originally installer works so it must be something that I am doing

Version 118.0 Seit heute Morgen kann ich Firefox nicht mehr normal starten. Nur als Admin, es werden aber keine Webseiten mehr angezeigt und wenn ich in die Adresszeile etwas eingebe passiert nichts. Ich habe den Browser deinstalliert und neu installiert, ohne Erfolg. Dann habe ich die Unser Datei gelöscht, ohne Erfolg. Die Firewall blockiert nicht und den Virenschutz habe ich deaktiviert, ohne Erfolg. Beides ist das original Win10 Werkzeug. Wenn ich about:support eingebe passiert nichts, kann das Menu aber über den Link öffnen

Out of the blue, I can no longer download files using the download arrow. I used to get the prompt asking where to download the files but now don't get anything. I'll get a zip.part file on my desktop, where I have my downloads saved, but that's it. I've updated Firefox, restarted, uninstalled/reinstalled and nothing works.

Tried to update Firefox as advised by browser, but download doesn't support OS 10.11.6. Don't want to update OS as system is old. What is the last version of Firefox that I should download?

Hi there,

the update in the firefox is annoying. I must have a provision to turn OFF updates. Most of the time, the firefox is updating updating updating. It irritates me. I am fed up with this an hence writing this to you. fix it or i will uninstall this nasty browser.

Every week or so firefox becomes incapable of downloading any files regardless of site, size, or filetype. Running in troubleshoot mode and deleting all plugins does not solve issue, only solution is to refresh/reset firefox, which solves the issue until it starts up again, I haven't found any catalyst except for downloading, but that might just be when I notice it.
