I've reinstalled Firefox, and it worked for a bit, but now it's doing this again. I have a few extensions installed, but the problem stays the same after disabling them. I have updated to version 69.0.3 (64-bit) and nothing changed.

I've reset Firefox (Windows) and now can't find a setting or extension to allow tabs to spill over into multiple lines rather than scrolling. What happened?

Prior to doing a reset on Firefox, I was seeing tabs in multiple lines and, IIR, I could set the maximum number of lines before scrolling set in. Now, I can't find the setting to allow those multiple lines and can only scroll left to right or right to left. Suggestions appreciated.

Last week in response to a prompt I created a new Firefox account and agreed to sync all of my devices. One of those processes resulted in my losing all bookmarks from my Firefox browser on my laptop.
When I follow the "Restoring from Backups" steps here (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them), under "Restore," only two dates appear -- both from after the date of syncing. So even if Firefox automatically backed up my bookmarks prior to the sync, I can't seem to access them.
Is there any way to find and restore my lost bookmarks?
Using update 69.0.2, where did my bookmarks go?

The backup files don't even exist. The html file is gone from the HD of the computer. Launched firefox the other day and the bookmarks were just gone. Everything was reset-homepage, add ons, etc. I have tried all of the recommended fixes listed in the lost bookmarks questions and none solve my issues.
How can I change the sizes of fonts and icons in the Menu and Toolbars?

I'm using Firefox 67.0 under MX Linux. My monitor is 25" with a resolution of 1920x1200. With this resolution, the text and icons in Firefox Menu and Toolbars are tiny and almost impossible to read. The Thunderbird add-on Theme and Font Size Changer works reasonably well for Thunderbird, so is there a corresponding add-on for Firefox?
I know that Firefox is largely developed by people who are volunteers, but it seems that a tool, as part of the basic Firefox program, should be available to make these changes without installing add-ons or modifying the code manually. Almost everyone needs to be able to tweak these things at one time or another.

Why does my Firefox browser keep crashing? It has crashed seveal times in the past few days. I'm not a computer geek, so I don't know what to do or ?
It seems to crash after I have been on for a while, not at startup. Usually if I have more than 1 tab open. What's up?

I'm curious what does actually trigger a sync with Firefox Sync? It's not push, I can tell that and it's not time set as well (I waited, and waited, and waited...)... it does sync only when I push 'sync now' and sometimes even then it only acts as if synced but it's not.
A little background: I'm using FF 69.0.1, Build ID: 20190917135527 on a Mac and FF 69.0.2, Build ID: 20191001234643 on a Win machine, both signed in with the same login. I make a bookmark and it doesn't show up on the other machine, not on addition, not after a day, not until I manually hit Sync now on BOTH machines. I don't think it's working as designed...
So my question is, how does sync actually work, if it's neither a scheduled nor a push sync?
Thanks.
PS: it's quite useless the way it works now.

Installing newest Firefox 69... killed my profile (cookie settings etc.) There are also not signed Addons which I still want to use. Luckily I had a sytem backup to restor to the oldest 69 version. But I cannot use this profile for the ESR version. Cookies getting lost. Btw. it would be a good idea, if profile settings (cookies, addon settings, look and feel could be synced for Firefox on different computers.

There were a couple of posts asking the same thing I am, but no answers to either of the. You used to have that Theme and Font Size Changer but I hear that is not very useful anymore. Is there any other way to increase the text on tool bars and menus? It's just way too small. Text on web pages is fine but I can't hardly read the tool bars and menus unless I really squint. Why would you want to make it so terribly small with no way to adjust it?

I recorded a powerpoint presentation using the powerpoint Recording function and exported to video - it created an MP4 file. This file plays fine under windows media player, Edge and Chrome. It produces intolerably scratchy audio (sounds of crackles) when played under firefox on Windows 10 and via a website link on Firefox for Android. Powerpoint is for Office 365 MSO version 1908 (Build 11929.20254). Firefox (windows) is version 69.0 build 20190827005903.
