i have been using the old yahoo for years and now it seems they changed the layout to resemble google. it sucks. if i wanted googles layout i would use my google email. if i use this term https://mail.yahoo.com/d/settings/1 i get the old yahoo setup screen and then i have to click return to mail and the old screen stays until i either restart the pc or restart fire fox. i do not see in fire fox setting an area that lets me put in a startup term like chrome has that will restart yahoo in the view i like. being that view is still there.

the old view that i like with the blue on both sides

CHROME DOESN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND THE FONTS SHOW PROPERLY WHITE.

Hi Moz Support,

I've had this happen several times before, but this time it really annoyed me.

I sent tabs from one Firefox instance to another on another device. I closed these tabs on the source device. These tabs were quite old this time, I'd not opened them in a while - this becomes important later.

On the destination device, let's call it "madbilly's destination Firefox", these tabs didn't arrive. After doing a couple of tests where I sent a tab from my mobile to this instance, I realised that this was a similar problem to what I'd had before, which is one where a Firefox instance/profile for some reasons "resets" itself and it seems to create a new instance in Firefox Sync. Tabs which have previously been sent to "madbilly's destination Firefox" don't arrive, because (I think) it's not registered in Firefox Sync as the same instance. These sent tabs, if closed on the source instance (which I did) are lost, unless one reopens the source instance and Ctrl-Shift+T reopens closed tabs. Unfortunately, in this case because the tabs were old and I hadn't opened them for a while there was no way to do this, because Firefox doesn't remember closed tabs which are not stored in memory (another bug, any fix?), except for looking in old session store backups which I'm going to do after I write this post, though I don't know if that will work.

Also, on Android, because it only remembers 10 closed tabs it's not really feasible to retrieve lost sent tabs this way either, and as there's no access to the session store backups the tabs are definitely lost.

Oddly, when this happens "madbilly's destination Firefox" usually appears twice in the send-tab-to menu, but in this case it didn't. To be able to send to this instance I had to sign out of Firefox sync on this instance and sign in again. Then the same instance appeared twice in the sync menu, the old one being now unreachable.

I'd like to know: 1. Why does this happen? 2. How to avoid it happening? 3. Is there a bug registered about this? 4. When will it be fixed and prevented from happening again.

I generally find that this happens when a Firefox instance isn't shut down properly, which on my old desktop I put down to it running out of resources, but on this shiny new laptop from work that doesn't make sense.

All help much appreciated thanks :)

The built in VPN worked great for me for a couple of months, but now whenever I try to turn it on, it starts with the "Get Started" screen, which takes me to a page to confirm my account. When I press continue the VPN button just goes back to the "Get Started" screen & the loop repeats. I've tried signing out & refreshing my Firefox installation but I keep getting the same result. Before it started doing this the button to turn on the VPN was appearing but would not react to clicks.

I asked AI: "I'm being prevented from using options which cause pop ups but I don't think I've deliberately changed any settings. I want to use "analyze the board" on the Gameknot website but I'm being prevented from using it. How can I get it back?" I followed the instructions: "Mozilla Firefox: Click the three lines (top right) > Settings > Privacy & Security > Permissions. Go to the "Pop-up windows" section and click Exceptions, then add https://gameknot.com" but I haven't re-acquired use of the pop up I ant to continue working. I want it back and its extremely irritating as the work around is very long and boring.

After browsing the internet, i find new stuff on my screen. Then I have to spend time deleting all the shortcuts I don't want. I have the home screen set the way I want it and don't want it to arbitrarily add short cuts I don't want or need. I hate it when it messes up what I have set.
