Firefox Community Forum

In the Security Measures overview, under Manage Passwords, I see the following: 3 passwords may have been exposed through data breaches.

All 3 websites with data breaches belong to Facebook.

I permanently deleted all Facebook accounts more than 3 years ago.

Without Facebook accounts, I can't and don't need to change my passwords, right?

Thanks and regards

this morning when i turned on my pc and went on firefox i had to sign in the account, and when i did that all my bookmarks had a strange immage ,like the immage i uploaded below, and my settings where wrong,now when go on youtube or any other web site i can't see my bookmarks, i tryed looking in the settings but i didn't find how to fix my problem.

I created a firefox profile from another, so I start with the same saved passwords and bookmarks which is nice.

Now I want to sync this new profile with the sync service of the mozilla account.

First, I tried to use the same mozilla account I was using for the original profile (which would be ideal), but I get an error saying: This account is already in use.

OK, so I thought, instead, I could use an alternative mozilla account to sync this new copied profile, but, when I try to register/login with another account I get this other error:

This profile was previously synced with a different account.

To keep your data organized and secure, each Firefox profile can only be synced with one account. To log in using ***@***, you must create a new profile.

Isn't there anyway to sync this new profile to a mozilla account? What's the whole point of copying profiles if you, after, cannot sync it? :/

My search history is clogged with repetitions of the same search. For example I log onto my bank account and the search history shows 15 plus or minus entries. It also happens with other sites i visit often. I searched the internet about "history" and It was suggested that is check extensions and remove them. Then Just today my bank sign-in icon was gone. Sorry Im not always using the correct terminolgy.

We have been unable to find an explanation of what components of the password file data, like created & modified date, can be included nor any formatting requirements. Is following the format of the Exported CSV password file adequate?

Hi,

Using the new profile manager, is there a way to launch Firefox using a specific profile?

I like the new Profile manager feature! As I understand it, it is completely separate from the old way of managing profiles with "firefox -p" and about::profiles. One feature of the old system that I really liked was the ability to launch Firefox with a specific profile. I was using this to create separate shortcuts to launch my Personal profile or my Work one. Is this possible with the new profile management system? I know that there is an option to select a default profile - but this is not as useful as that means that the same profile would always be used.

Thanks!

Dear Firefox,

When I copy and paste from Pages on a Mac, to a gmail email I am writing, I lose all the formatting. This doesn't happen when using a Brave browser, so I don't think its a gmail settings issue.

Can you help?

Is there a setting in Firefox that I could use to overcome this issue?

Thank you,

My Bookmarks were missing and I had an error message so none of the topics you have listed seem appropriate. I found a 2 part fix on the internet (Part 1 - Open your profile folder and part 2 -Create a new data base). The result was removal of the error message and a few Bookmarks becoming available. Question is how to get the remaining Bookmarks?

When trying to enter a full screen mode pressing modkey + f or F11 buttons my screen is cut in the upper part. The resolution of my pc is 1600x900 however my browser, after entering into a full screen mode, turns the resolution in 1600x917 and I do not understand why it automatically assigns this resolution. I have tried turning off the fingerprint option but it did not help. My os is x64 linuxm distro is the arch linux, and I use the awesome window manager. I tried using the Librewolf and I had the same problem when entering the full screen mode. I've set the linux recently so I guess I have no settings that could have potentially be the cause of the problem.

Bookmarks seem to be missing from Firefox. I followed the advice up to part 2. That got rid of the error message but only a few Bookmarks were there. Is there any way I can get the rest of them back?
