Firefox Support Forum

I got a message on firefox that it was running slow & if I reset my firefox browser it might help speed it up. It also said that it wouldn't effect my logins & passwords or my saved bookmarks, but after clicking on the reset as instructed, I lost everything! I'm not sure what to do.... I clicked on restore bookmarks, but it said can't access the file... Is there any thing I can do to get them back??

Will restoring the laptop to an earlier date work?

Any help would be so very very much appreciated. Thanks, Sheila

I have a number of bookmarked pages. When I open a new window and then select the bookmarked page i want to open, FF switches tyo another ALREADY OPEN TAB and loads the page there removing the page that was opened. EX: I use both regular FF and Private windows on my screen and switch from one to the other according to the loaded pages I am using. When I open a new tab in private windows and try to get FF to open a bookmarked page, it will switch to my open tabs under regular FF instead of opening the bookmarked page in the new private windows page it will REPLACE an open page. This happens a lot with my YouTube pages which I leave open during the day to listen to binaural beat music in the background while I am working. What's up with that? Why doesn't the bookmarked page open in a new private windows tab?

I also noticed that when I leave pages open during the day in both private and regular FF now (since the most recent update)and go back to them, I often have to reload the whole page instead of just allowing me to go directly to something on that page.

I have been dodging the most recent updates because with each new update there seems to be more and more CONTROL from your side, and less freedom on our side of the screen. Is this purposeful? If so, WHY?!!!

This is what I get when i try to do a search:

https://secure.web-start-page.com/?partner=acer&src=omnibox&brw=ff&q=bbc+news

It has been happening for abot 4-5 days now. Have never had any problems in the past.

Title should describe the problem, search function text appears now in the address bar, and not in the text field of the home page when I'm typing it.

Very difficult to get used to.

My 'Other Bookmarks' used to open on the left of the screen. Now they appear on the right hand side. How do I get them back to the left hand side please. The toolbar is ok and the regular drop down is ok.

Goodday!

Will it be possible to use Aegis for 2FA, any time soon?

See https://getaegis.app/ for more info (I downloaded it from F-Droid).

It's obvious you are changing firefox over to accommodate touch screen users. You couldn't possibly have thought of the hostility you're creating with non touch users??????????????????????

REALLY?????????????????????????????? YOU COULDN'T JUST MAKE A SKIN?????????????????

PEOPLE EVERYWHER FREAKING HATE YOU

Hello, I have folder with old Firefox data, I need Google account name and password, mostly name. How can i decrypt the name from file logins.json or how can I import it to my current Firefox profile? In properties of passwords in Firefox I don't have option to import from file, I don't know how to find option that will let me do it.

Our main computer (Windows 8 also) was working correctly yesterday with Firefox. This morning it will not allow us to go to some sites. Noticed an update went through yesterday. Have tried troubleshooting the problem. Refreshed Firefox. Even reinstalled Firefox. Still not going to most sites. it will go to Facebook. It will go to Google. It will not go to most, including the Mozilla help page. This behavior persists whether it is via WiFi or Ethernet with Cox, or Dial-up with NetZero.
