Hi! I'm using Firefox on my Mac. Last update. My problem is simple: when I close Firefox, it doesn't remember the last size of the window. So, for example, I normally use it on the full dimension of the screen (but not in full size: I'll post a picture to explain, because I'm not good with words hahah). Instead, when I relaunch it, it opens like in small size (I'll post a picture of that, too). Is there something that I can do? Thx.

I haven't been able to delete or add to my bookmarks in years! Despite upgrading my MacBook to the latest ios and updating Firefox to the latest version. I've lived with it until now and just haven't used bookmarks in ages, but I want to start using them again. I can't change any bookmarks, in the menu or the toolbar. None of the bookmark buttons or shortcuts work. How can I fix this?

In the Search panel of the Preferences page I have changed my preferred search engine to DuckDuckGo. It will stay as this until I quit and reopen Firefox, when it reverts back to Google. I've tried this a few times but it always goes back. I've looked for a cookie that might be being deleted, but there are none on my machine (that I can see).
I'm running Firefox 72.0.2 on a Mac with Catalina 10.15.2 and also have Firefox apps on an iPhone and iPad.
Can anyone shed any light? Thanks in advance

I used profile manager and copied my profile (C drive) to a different directory (D). Profile even has same name. And is same size. Yet all bookmarks and add ons are gone. They remain in original C drive profile and that works fine if I default to it. But if I make the D Drive profile the default it looks like a new profile with no existing bookmarks/add ons. Why doesn't this data move across to?
How to print out my passwords in Firefox? I need to migrate user names and passwords for various web sites to a new computer

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1253828 does not seem to work because the caret (») is not visible in Firefox 72.0.2 (64-bit) that is on my machine. This is most annoying. Firefox and T'Bird are the most difficult software to migrate to new computers.
I need the export as a CVS. The other approaches either don't allow copy and paste or they are JSON and I have no clue how rto use that.
The other angle: logins.json (passwords) and key4.db (58+) for Passwords saved in the Password Manager I don't see a way to get that into a spreadsheet.
It is particularly annoying because there is an import function but no export function. I have over 300 web site user names and passwords. Hours and hours of work to just copy one at a time.

I've been using Firefox for years but this morning it stopped working. the little firefox button just kept moving left-right and never found the page. Eventually I gave up and uninstalled firefox but when I tried to reinstall it, it states that firefox was previously installed and allows me to reinstall. when I do that it always gives an error message that it was unsuccessful.

All of the sudden, Firefox shut down. It has happened before a couple of time, but when I opened it again, my previous session was restored. Not this time. All my tabs are gone, and "history" just shows the pages I recently opened, not the tabs that were abruptly closed. I would really appreciate any help you can provide.

I was prompted and downloaded the latest upgrade install file (72.0.2), closed Firefox and ran the upgrade. The resulting web page had a welcome tab and privacy tab as if this was the first time I'm using Firefox. All my tabs, bookmarks, settings, add-ins, authenticating credentials and history have disappeared. No Restore previous session was available. This is major loss that takes away all the tools and knowledge based I had accumulated over many years. It not only devastates my ability to function online but also kills the tasks I had been working on for a couple of weeks. I was able to find an excellent resource at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1204253 which lead me to explore the Firefox files in sessionstore-backups folder. There is a file in there called previous.jsonlz4 which was saved about 15 minutes before the crash. I can see its contents using the tool at https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html but don't know what to do next. There is no recovery.baklz4 file in this folder. Is there anything I can do to recover my browser as it was before the crash with my tabs, bookmarks, add-ons and my authentication credentials to various sites so I can be functional again?

Upon sysytem startup today my browser immediately opened up a browser which then filled up with multiple tabs all labelled Error. IT then kept on opening up new browser pages which likewise filled up with multiple tabs all labelled as Error. Eventually a crash dialogue popped up and having sent that I tried to close the browsers only for them to continue popping up. Eventually I was forced to restart the system. Happily upon restart the problem did not recur. My anti-virus (Bullguard) reported no issues.

Hello. In my bookmarks library I have a lot of folders organized in a tree with multiple branches themselves organized in hierarchic levels. Sometimes I don't find the bookmark I want to use by browsing my tree, probably because I didn't put it in the right location in the tree. I can find it by the "Search bookmarks" function but this function doesn't provide the bookmark location in the tree (and I don't see any other way to locate it). Thus I can't correct the bookmark location error in the tree.
Is there a way to locate a bookmark in library folders tree ?
