bold textI need to sync my phone to my new computer so I can get my bookmarks and passwords transferred over to my new computer. I am afraid to scan the QR code because it reads as if it will sync this empty canvas to my phone and wipe all of my data out. What steps do I need to take?

On 12-8-22 I updated my email address in my Mozilla/Firefox acct. (I have an iMac w/Catalina operating system, but am using the latest version of FireFox.) Today is 12-15-22 & autofill is still inputting my old email address. I've been all thru FireFox preferences, "privacy & security" & autofill, but cannot find a way to make it autofill using my updated email address. I need step by step instructions on how to replace my old email address with my new email address in autofill.

THANKS in advance for any & all help!!

First time ever. Tested other browsers, sound works fine. Changed no settings when it suddenly went silent. Refreshed. Uninstalled/reinstalled. Nada/nothing. So to not feel as if I've lost my hearing, I won't be using Firefox until there's a fix on their end, already tried everything suggested in troubleshooting and refreshed. It's just not playing well with Win11.

If I open up Hulu in Firefox it never loads the title cards or let me click on any videos in the website. I have turned my adblocker on and off and even uninstalled it at one point but I cannot get the issue to go away. Upon opening the browser console I found that the site has a source map error as shown in the attached image. Im not sure how to fix this as google hasnt been much help so far.

Some web pages don't work on FFx but do with Edge. On this page: link text I can fill out the form but when I try to submit it nothing happens. On Edge, no problem. I run into this a lot with FFx...

I've been using FireFox for a long time. My account is installed on two computers. The operating system of one is windows 8.1 (from work) and the other is windows 10. (from home) On December 7 or 8, 2020, my login list was suddenly deleted while I was working on my account with windows 8.1. I turned SYNC back on, but I couldn't get any of my recordings.

When I opened the same Firefox on my windows 10 computer at home, my login list was erased in less than 5 seconds.

I followed all the procedures on your help page. My login list is automatically erased when SYNC is on. I tried many times. It automatically erased my login list that I created from backup every time SYNC is on.

I request your help from Mozilla and Firefox authorities and review my account if necessary. I would like to see and use my November 2022 login list the same way if possible.

Thank you for your support

I run a Windows laptop, version 8.1. Two days ago the monthly system rollup occurred followed by Firefox browser updates. The user comment section of the Foxnews website disappeared completely. I can still login and out but nothing appears for any article comments. I see the comments are still there when I open a Chrome browser on my Android phone so I know Fox didn't discontinue user commenting. I have looked at add-ons, ad blockers, etc but no success reactivating this feature.

Anyone else having this problem? If so, is there a known cause/solution? Thanks

Is there a way that I can recover my New Tab page setup (just the new tab page) from a Macrium Reflect backup of my OS disk? I recently did some cleanup that cratered my FireFox profile (developer and beta also). I would like to somehow recover just the New Tab page setup from the os backup. Any solution? Thanks for your help.

I have been using firefox for quite some time, and have bookmarks and addons saved to my account. I just recently had to restore windows on my PC, and in doing so, seemingly lost my whole profile. I also have firefox on iOS, and all of the bookmarks are saved there, apparently on the same account I am using to sign in on desktop. I have tried to force the desktop version to sync, but it says it has fully synced and none of my stuff is here still. Is there a way for me to import the profile from iOS or something?

I've been using Firefox for years, and I don't remember ever having a password, but it asked me for one when I set up a new Operating System. So it wanted my email addy, and I gave them the password for that addy. They wouldn't accept it. Then I created a new password, and now it shows too many dots for the password I created. I'm really confused now. Already they have sent me 8 different "Account Authorization Codes." I have no idea what is going on now, and I don't know if the password I created is the one that they now have because there is no "eye" to show me what they think that my password is. Like I said, they are showing too many dots, and there is no way for me to find out what they think my password is!

With the update from 107.1 to 108.0 my default search engine was reset from DuckDuckGo to Google. This happened several times before, about once a year. Extremely annoying. I'm using the only browser not based on chromium for a reason.

Is this due to some agreement between Google and Mozilla?

I really wish I could pay directly for a browser. I'm using it 8-10 hrs each day.

Hello,

since a few days I have a strange cursor, possibly related to the latest version. The problem only occurs in Firefox.

No matter where I click, in search histories, settings or on websites, the cursor that appears when you want to write something appears everywhere. So the flashing line, I just can't write anything.

How can I deactivate it? I have already asked in other forums, but no one has an answer.

I'm attaching a few screenshots below.

Hi all,

On your latest install Firefox 108.0.1 my tabs have moved to the bottom of my browser near my taksbar in window 10. The tabs are not working correctly. Please fix. Thank you.

P.S. it working in firefox safe mode. The tabs show a the top of screen and you can add multiple tabs.

I recently installed new pc with fresh Firefox Developer Edition. Then I transfered the profile folder from old pc to the new pc. All bookmarks, addons, etc is there. Just the XULRunner popup appears only on the new pc. I uninstalled firefox on the new pc again and reinstalled it with profile cleaning. After profile cleaning firefox got faster and addons got removed. But the XULRunner popup keeps appearing. When I go to taskscheduler and trigger the "Firefox Developer Edition Background Update CA9422711AE1A81C" again, the XULRunner popup appears. Removing this taskscheduler and Firefox keeps readding it and the XULRunner popup are back. Any idea how I can get rid of the XULRunner popup?

The Update to 108.0.1 succeeded, but the partial process for "sync" still shows as partway. Must've clicked that item by mistake, and then killed it after seeing the scope--since I don't use a smartphone., etc., anyway!

We should be cautioned that this 108.0.1 upgrade is a complicated one. At midnight I just wanted to do a SIMPLE update (release notes listed just one item), shut it off and hit the sack --not be swamped with all the myriad new choices and features to learm! --as I now see.
