My computer died about three days ago, and firefox had three windows open. When I rebooted the computer again, firefox automatically started up, and the flyout panel thing that shows up when you right click on an app claimed that all three windows returned. However, only two of them were actually accessible, and clicking on the app to move between them and the F3 window confirmed this. Clicking on the third window accomplishes nothing, reveals nothing, and just moves the little checkmark around in that flyout panel. Closing the other two windows before restarting firefox does not open a new window because it thinks one is already there, but I cannot in any way see or access it outside of its label in the flyout panel. Even hitting "Show All Windows" just shows the window I am typing this in. What am I supposed to do here?

For the past month or two, at random times when I open Firefox, I see a message stating, "Looks like you reinstalled Firefox." To be clear I have not uninstalled Firefox in any instance where this message has been displayed.

When this happens, I’m unable to browse the web. To resolve the issue, I have to remove the uBlock Origin extension and reinstall it. Once I’ve done that, browsing returns to normal. However, I then need to reconfigure my filters and adjust settings within FireFox

I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox to see if that would prevent this issue, but it hasn’t worked.

This problem is specific to my PC—it has never occurred on my MacBook.

Any assistance in understanding why this happens and how to prevent it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I'm not sure what type of issue this is, so hopefully I’ve posted it in the right place!

Devices:

  • Firefox version 133.0 on 2022 M2 MacBook Pro OS Sequoia 15.1.1
  • Firefox version 133.0 on iPhone 16 Pro Max iOS 18.1.1 (*for reference, of checking issue, not where issue is occurring)

Issue Breakdown: While updating my bookmark's tags in Bookmark Manager, my tags all but disappeared and other strange things started happening.

  • My tags aren't in the sidebar menu of the Bookmark Manager at all. See Screenshot 1.
  • Already tagged bookmarks retained the tags, but I’m unable to edit, add, or remove bookmark tags at all. When the bookmark is selected, the bookmark’s tags, nor any other tags, appear in a list under the bookmarks tags. See Screenshot 2.
  • I can locate all bookmarks with the same tag by searching bookmarks in the Bookmark Manager.
  • I can move and rename pre-existing bookmarks.
  • I can add new bookmarks (confirmed by the blue star beside the address bar on the main browser after exiting and re-entering), but I cannot find those bookmarks anywhere in Bookmark Manager.
  • My mobile bookmarks folder isn’t shown in Bookmarks Manager, but I can view 11 bookmarks in my Mobile Bookmarks folder on my phone’s Firefox application.

I’ve tried the following:

I have no idea what is wrong with it or what is going on. What else can I do?

Hello,

I'm trying to update to firefox version 133.0. My O.S. is Ubuntu 20.04. I've untarred the tarball to ~/firefox/firefox-133.0/.

If I startup the new firefox, I receive the following error message: "libxul.so, undefined symbol: gdk_window_show_menu".

I also tried firefox version 120.0, except the result was the same.

How can I fix this?

thanks.

Hello, After a combined Windows and Firefox update, my sidebar panel that I use to access my tabs and other extensions primarily sits behind the webpage itself. I can still see my tab icons, and when I hover over it to expand I can see that it does in fact expand, but the information is displayed behind the current webpage. I've attached a couple images to show what I mean. In the first image it shows how it normally would look, just the tab icons. In the second it shows how it is behind the webpage. You can see the start of the tab names and at the top you can see that it's expanded, as it's covering the previous, next, refresh buttons.

The sidebar extension for the tabs is called Sidebery.

Can anyone help me fix this behavior?

Thanks.
