On fresh Firefox install that I setup using [https://mozilla.github.io/policy-temp.../#preferences|preferences] Which is option to disable those default ads?

Namely: twitter, youtube, facebook, Wikipedia and reddit.

I know I can do it manually with 5 x 2 clicks but that's 10 click every time I install browser.

Image showing YouTube as example what I want to get rid of.

Not sure whether this is related to an update on apple iOS 17.6.1 or Firefox focus. At one point it worked, then last update on both ends I'll say for now this problem reoccured again.

I use an apple iPad 11 Pro with Magic Keyboard. If i wanna type in the URL bar it simply doesnt allow for the curser to be placed in that area, however, if I detach the iPad from the Magic Keyboard the function returns and now I'm able to place curser in url bar and being typing an address.

Prior to this problem reoccurring once more with one of the updates, it was fine for a couple of months (perhaps from may till august - best guess but I have no idea), but before may (lets say) I also dealt with the same exact problem for over a year or more.

Thank you, G

P.S. I apologize for my non-technical vocabulary as I am not versed well in this field.

I changed my hardware and reinstalled Firefox. I signed-in using the same google account but my search history and saved passwords are now lost. I need them back. What should i do?

After upgrading my Mac to Sonoma, Firefox quit working. It gets stuck on checking for updates. I have searched the web for answers and I have:

Changed my proxy settings - made no difference Opened in trouble shooting mode - no difference Deleted all cache etc - no difference Re-installed Firefox - no difference Set up a new profile (multiple times) - no difference Reset Firefox (multiple times) - no difference Ran a check for Malware - none found A few other things - no difference Firefox has been my main browser for about 15 years and it is now useless. Please let me know if there is a fix. I hate using Safari but I have spent days on this.

thanks

Hi there. I wanted to add Block site extension to my Firefox browser on iPad. Is this possible? It keeps asking me to download Firefox which I am already using. If I try to download it again it won’t complete so it seems impossible to do this. With thanks. Col.

I have a new computer and I want to reinstall my previous FIREFOX browser that has all of my bookmarks with it. I know my password and I have a recovery key. I need simple directions on how to reinstall and how do I make sure I have my bookmarks? Also, on my last FIREFOX browser,when I opened it I had FOX NEWS that appeared. I need to know how to have FOX NEWS come up when I launch FIREFOX. I would really appreciate your help.

After updating Firefox to version 130.0, the on-screen keyboard no longer opens in Windows tablet mode when you click on an input field. As we use Firefox on many terminal PCs, this is an important issue for us.

I've been struggling with this issue for a few months. After Firefox updates, my toolbar layout gets reset and I have to re-do it from scratch. If that wasn't bad enough, occasionally when this happens it also enters this state where nothing loads. All tabs just get stuck in blank screen "dancing dot mode". Yes, google, everything. To "fix" this, I go into troubleshoot mode, and back to normal again, and then it's "fixed"... until it happens again a few days later. I can actually rebuild my toolbar layout in under 15 seconds now, I've done it so many times. I've tried doing the 'refresh'. Many times. I've fully uninstalled and re-installed Firefox. I uninstalled plugins that I suspected might be the cause. Nothing worked. At best these measures kept firefox stable a couple of weeks longer. I actually gave up and tried other browsers for a while. Any insight is appreciated.

Normally with a Firefox update, the 'Your Firefox has been updated' page is shown once. But after update 130.0, I can't get rid of it . Of course I can open a New tab but I'd rather not see this page at all: it has annoying graphics showing tips that i dont want!

A few days ago, I updated from Firefox Desktop Version 115.14.0 EXT to Firefox Desktop Version 115.15.0 EXT. I believe the latest update has a BUG that is causing problems with my Security software. I just spent more than two hours with the Security software's Tech Support Team. They were not able to find any errors on their side. Then it occurred to me that the Security software issues began AFTER I installed the latest Firefox Desktop Version 115.15.0 EXT. How can I re-Install Firefox Desktop Version 115.14.0 EXT?

ages ago FF posted an update on my desk top. I've installed it dozens of times and dismissed it many times that much but it is still stuck on my desktop. How do O cleaned this up?

I tried to transfer the Profile of Thunderbird Version 115 from my Windows 10 PC to a new Windows 11 PC. I followed the steps posted at the website ( https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/moving-thunderbird-data-to-a-new-computer ) I got to Step 5 for the new / destination computer 5. Locate the "Profile Folder" entry, but when I clicked Open Folder. Windows could not find the Thunderbird profile folder How do I bring my Thunderbird profile to the current version of Thunderbird? Thank you

I recently updated to v130. I'm having the same problem that so many others have, "Firefox already running, close Firefox". After updating to v130 I had to go to Task Manager and delete 19 Firefox running. It's only been a few days ago and I checked Task Manager today and deleted another 13. After updating to v130 many of my add-ons are showing up in the Menu Bar. I have used Add-ons Manager to drag and drop, but it doesn't work. I have specific bookmarks that should be in the "Bookmarks" section" but they are also showing up in the Menu Bar. I had to re-select my screen choice because it had disappeared. I use DuckDuckGo for my search engine and in the past I was able to choose a separate search bar, but that too has disappeared and I cannot seem to fix it in settings. So many problems after updates, but this one seems very bad. I use Windows 10 on my desktop PC

Please Help, Rhonda
