I have several devices which run different systems. Whenever I sync in Firefox, Linux Firefox always syncs with other Linux firefox or Mac Firefox.

I'm on Fedora 31. Firefox was recently upgraded to 71.0 and I find a weird pattern in trying to open links from applications - possibly related to Slack:
If firefox was initially opened following a link from Slack, I can open other links from Slack, but trying to follow links from other applications (IBM Lotus Notes, or running "firefox URL" from a terminal window) fails with a "Firefox is already running" message.
If I open firefox from the desktop applications menu, the reverse happens. I can open links from Notes and a terminal, but following links from Slack fails.
I tried reinstalling firefox and slack with no success. Today I tried going back to an earlier version - firefox-70.0.1-4.fc30.x86_64.rpm - and everything seems to be okay.
It seems like something changed in firefox 71 that doesn't play well with Slack.

Any thoughts? I ndo a ot of searches and the audio notification was a great way to get my attention.

Can someone help me edit the CSS to disable the feature of middle mouse clicks on the empty portion of the tab bar opening new tabs? The new update broke the CSS again and it's really frustrating using Firefox as I have a bad habit of constantly clicking the middle mouse button.

Just upgraded to Windows10 ver 1909 and it wiped my bookmarks and add-ons from all browsers, so I now start out with an empty bookmark list. How do I get Firefox to recognize my favorites directory that is on the hard drive? Since they are gone from all browsers, I can't do an import and I can't figure out how to reset the bookmark directory location.

I have installed Firefox before and I don't recall ever having this issue. I have tried rebooting my computer, doing a clean uninstall and install of Firefox, trashing Mozilla's cache folder, and attempting to install Firefox multiple times but every time I drag Firefox into the Applications folder it gets stuck at "Preparing to copy to "Applications." Every.. single... time.
I am using MacOS Catalina.
I would really appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks! :)

Used to be able to sign on to Cicso rv325 using Firefox. Updated to must recent firmware update. After that - was able to get to sign on page, enter user id, enter password, click login and nothing happens. Can login using Chrome or Explorer though I do have to tell them using this unprotected address is OK which I do not have to do in Firefox.

Running FF 67.0.3 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. When I go to certain web pages (Amazon, My Music) I get an intrusive pop-up saying my version of FF is no longer supported and I should upgrade. The pop-up cannot be dismissed, and the only option is 'update now'. (And FWIW, the Amazon page behind it is "out of focus" ) The 'update now' takes me to a page telling me to open the 'help - about' and it will automatically start downloading. Only it doesn't start downloading . And other pages say FF is supposed to update automatically, without any intervention on my part. So I'm stuck.

DDE is a Windows interprocess communication technology that is useful to automate things such as getting the url from Firefox etc. It seems that DDE is being progressively disabled since Firefox Quantum. On FF 57 I can no longer grab the url, on Firefox 70 I can no longer copy text.. Is Mozilla doing this on purpose and is there a way to re-enable DDE?
