Edit bookmark box won't scroll or show me all my folders/subfolders: When are you going to fix this problem: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968861

This used to work fine. I don't want to mess with userChrome.css to get it to work. It should just work like it used to.

Thanks very much...

Hello,

I recently bought a new computer and it imported the bookmarks that I had from my chrome account to Firefox after installing it. I already had a firefox account on my old computer and I signed into the new computer with my firefox account thinking it would make a difference but I am still unable to see my old bookmarks that were on my old firefox. Now the issue is even the firefox on my old computer was also updated with the imported bookmarks from Chrome. Please let me know how to solve this issue and get back my old firefox bookmarks back, please attach screenshots if possible.

Thank you!

Is there a way to open many pages quickly from history?

Whenever I'm in history and I open a page, the history window closes. In order to open another page from the history I need to go back to menu > history, search through history again, and go from there. I want to open like 5 tabs real quick, as I imagine it 5 quick middle clicks in the history window without the history window closing. Is there any preference for this or extension?

The Adobe Acrobat Add-On Extension for Firefox was missing so I attempted to add it from Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017. I have had to do this manually by installing from the adobe_acrobat-1.0-windows.xpi file. This usually has worked. When i tried to add it this time is said the add-on file was corrupt.

I tried uninstalling and redownlading AdobeAcrobatPro 2017 thinking this would add an uncorrupted file and got the same the same message. Unfortunately, because I had used the Adobe license key too many times for Acrobat 2017 on my computer I had to upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Pro 2020. i had hoped this would solve the problem. But no, I get the same message corrupt file message even with a new copy of the Acrobat Pro 2020.

What is going on? Can anyone help with this?

409 errors and reload loop when logged in to a wordpress website - only in firefox

When I log in as admin to my wordpress website, firefox gets stuck in an endless reload loop.

https://imgur.com/hnjbGGe

Sometimes if I clear the browser history or open a private window, I can successfully log in and load a page - once. The page seems to load normally but there are 409 errors shown for many of the files in the developer tools.

https://imgur.com/uTugRTC

If I reload the page again, it goes back to the endless loop.

This started when I installed a wordpress caching plugin, but the problem is specific to firefox, so I don't really know whether firefox or the plugin is actually responsible.

How could firefox be getting 409 errors when other browsers get normal 200 responses for the same resources?

Why is firefox triggering this reload loop, and is there a way I can stop it?

I have 2 laptops, one for work and one personally. I was looking to set-up firefox on my personal laptop as well but noticed I cannot open developer console on a specific element by pressing 'q' anymore after right clicking.

This is a significant feature and I would like to keep using it. Is it possible to enable this feature on my personal computer as well? Since it is still enabled on my work device.

Unfortunately using a date type toJSON() result is not accurate. It first apply client timezone and then convert it to json string. In my scenario I am simply read from an API which return a none standard datetime string without its timezone (like "2020-11-21 00:00:00"), Then I try to convert it to a date using new Date("2020-11-21 00:00:00"). Then I use it in another web service but it apply my client timezone when I use JSON.stringify() method (or toJSON()). Does this behaviour is intentionally?


I read the other same question but I am not okay with it. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1414380

A few updates ago, the way the the search engine icons/shortcuts worked in the search bar ui changed, and for the life of me can't figure out how the change it back.

The best way that I can explain it it when you click on an search icon/shortcut without typing something in, it would just take you too that search engines website homepage. It doesn't do that anymore and I would like to get that functionality back.

Any help would be appreciated, hopefully that explanation make sense.

I will attach a picture of the icon's/shortcuts of what I am talking about.

Thank you for your time. :-)

I cant get rid of this unsolicited "sign in with google" prompt which has cost me untold lost time having to type things over because it pops up when im looking at the keyboard while typing , getting noplace ! It is deliberate harassment !

I DO NOT HAVE ANY GOOGLE ACCOUNT AND WILL NEVER HAVE A GOOGLE ACCOUNT .

As I've said , I do not have any google account ! Therefore I can't go to any settings ! I can't get rid of this unwanted harassment !

I want to get rid of this garbage and never want it to come back after any BS "updates"

Hello - I've noticed lately that when I type a search, sometimes Firefox does nothing. It doesn't pull any results, it acts like I've done nothing, but I can see the search terms I typed in the address bar, separated by + symbols. It simply doesn't go anywhere and doesn't perform the search. I do a lot of searching when I'm working and this happens approximately 1 out of every 15-20 searches. I've attached an image where I opened a new tab, typed my search term and it remains on the homepage. You can see the search terms in the address bar.

No matter which engine I select, it doesn't open. None of the search engines will open. How do I get them online again? It seems to have happened after the last Mozilla update. Thank you.
