I just downloaded the new Mac Ventura update, and when I opened Firefox all my previous tabs opened up, but my Toolbar completely disappeared, as in there is an empty space for it, and they show when I click on Bookmarks, but not on the actual browser window. The same thing happened with my Add-on extensions, all disappeared, and they're not even showing in my library. When I tried to download them again online, every single one gave me a red error message "An unexpected error occurred during installation." Please advise what's going on and/or how I can fix this to get my normal browser back. Thanks

So I've disabled Firefox updates because of the personal preferences. It keeps nagging me every day with the modal to update. How do I disable this annoying useless feature?

Firefox 85.0 on mac os.

I've tried searching "about:config" for all preferences that contain "update" and look like timers and changed the timestamps to something in the far future. Still no dice, the update dialog keeps appearing every day like clockwork.

Just updated to latest Version 89.0. Rebooting the PC all of Firefox's colors changed to terrible washed out colors. Reading other inquiries I tried running the extension "Firefox Colors" but it didn't help. How do I reset to original default colors? Sincerely, DDBob.

How to rollback v.89 upgrade. Looks like crap. Lost functionality.

Netflix quit working today. It said my browser version was no longer supported. I updated from v.86 to v.89. It looks like crap. New tab + icon is gone. "tab bar" is not transparent or dark mode. And guess what: Netflix still doesn't work. That's probably their problem but now I have no Netflix, weird crap on the whatever bar, add-on icons are gone, and this big gaudy tab bar.

How do I rollback to a previous version? I'd rather not have excuses or sales pitches as to why 89 is better from the newer-is-better crowd. For me 89 is NOT better.

So, how do I rollback to a previous version?

After automatic update all my saved bookmarks is gone. All web page in istoric is gone - this is not ok

Dupa actualizarea automata am un program proaspat instalat, nu o actualizare - si nu mi se pare ok. Toate link-urile din bara de adrese au disparut si tot istoricul a fost sters - de ce?????? Aveam niste pagini salvate care acum le-am pierdut - parole care acum s-au dus si trebuie sa recuperez totul din aduceri aminte. Din start actualizarile nu ar trebui sa stearga ce aveai si sa instaleze un program "pe curat". Este a doua oara cand patesc asa ceva. Cred ca o sa renunt la browserul dvs.

translate with google translate: After the automatic update I have a freshly installed program, not an update - and I don't think it's ok. All links in the address bar have disappeared and all history has been deleted - why ?????? I had some saved pages that I now lost - passwords that are now gone and I have to recover everything from memories. From the start, the "updates" should not delete what you had and install a "clean" program. This is the second time I've suffered something like this. I think I will give up your browser.

How do I change my color scheme back to the original? Firefox upgraded my system (June 5, 2021) and the new color scheme is terrible. I want what I had yesterday. "Tools-Addons-Appearance- default setting" is an old instruction and path, and is not applicable in this version.

Why does Firefox keep screwing up my computer? I converted to version 88, and this morning Firefox has changed things again!! It is 89.0, again, even though I said "do not upgrade without my permission". The colors of the tabs are white again this morning, but at least I can see which tabs are playing. And my "Show Side Bars" and "View History" icons are back. It appears the visual problems in the web pages that I use are fixed; I can see that I have "Liked" comments in Facebook, and I can see likes in Rumble. I am grateful for those things.

But I hate the white Tabs bar at the top of the screen. And in this mess I lost all my previously open tabs. How do I get my previously open tabs back?

The 89.0 (64-bit) update to Firefox is a joke! When are fixes coming or is there any way for me to return to the previous edition. I cannot get used to this charade.

I think that Firefox is by far the most superior browser and this update is just so not Firefox. It hurts. It hurts really bad!

Honestly, I came home last night and clicked on the LinkedIn open tab to discover I had to log in. I have never had to do that. I never logged out. My log in and password were not offered or suggested. Then I discovered other tabs that had logged me out. Then I discovered I passwords had disappeared. I do not know what happened. I didn't update anything. I have spent hours trying to fix this. I followed one route to create a new profile and now I have lost the 73 tabs open over 3 windows for my businesses. Damn! I am fuming! And with no phone support this is the end of working with Mozilla. Can someone please help me? I'd like to wind back to yesterday morning!! Profiles, everything! I managed to find my bookmarks, but I have lost time and lost business. Help! Please!

Whenever I used to download pdf files there would automatically be a number added in paranthesis. Example- test.pdf (1) and the next one I would download would show up test.pdf (2). Made sepearting all of my files very easy. Now, however, every download is just "test.pdf." No number automatically added. How can I go back to how it used to work?
