I exported my passwords from Chrome and used FFPass to import into Firefox.
The passwords are visible by inspecting:
Machine 1: Settings->Preferences->Privacy and Security->Saved Logins Machine 2: Settings->Logins and Passwords
But when I set-up my third machine and sync, everything gets installed correctly (bookmarks, tabs, preferences, etc) except logins. I don't see any logins; however, if I manually browse to a website, enter my login, Firefox will ask if I want to save. If I click yes, then that login is saved, but none of my imported logins are.
Can someone help? I have over 150+ logins... manually adding them one-by-one is not an option.

Firefox MAC is blocking clicking LIKE on Instagram suddenly 1-2 weeks ago. I share Firefox browser settings automatically so this blocking also happens on my Macbook Pro. It does NOT happen using SAFARI or mobile cellphone app - ONLY Firefox browser. Everytime I click LIKE, this message window pops up: "Action Blocked This action was blocked. Please try again later. We restrict certain content and actions to protect our community. Tell us if you think we made a mistake." I included screenshots of green lock notification in address bar. HELP - any suggestions?

No issues when using another browser to upload an image. After completing a sync with MS OneDrive, my Firefox's File Upload folders are all empty despite my MS OneDrive being up-to-date. Every folder stills how the "still syncing" symbol, yet they there is no syncing going on at all. Why the incompatibility? Not happy with FF. Needs attention for a fix.

I've researched and tried just about everything I can to get drop down menus to work on a certain site...turned off hardware acceleration, tried loading the site in safe mode without any add-ons or themes, disabled all content blocking for the site, deleted all cookies and cache, reinstalled flash, etc etc etc. Nothing works. I have verified that the site functions properly using other browsers so I'm at a dead end now. Any help would be appreciated.

Websites that I regularly visit appear in my topwebsites (I have two rows of six icons each). It would be convenient if there would be a keyboard shortcut to open a specific website, similar to e.g. Ctrl+3 to go to the third open tab. Can't find the answer on this forum or anywhere else, have tried some semi-random combinations with no success. For info: I am on version 60.9.0esr (32-bits).

Hello,
I've installed Firefox on MacOS 10.14.6, and I am having trouble with the setting that sets the toolbar to hide when I'm in fullscreen mode except when the mouse is hovering at the top. This was a feature I found really useful in Safari, and it seems like it has existed in Firefox before, but no fixes previously listed on the site seem to work. I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge or CSS that would work to fix it?
Key thing: Browser.fullscreen.autohide does not work whether set to true or false.

Problem started yesterday afternoon when trying to upload photos to Walgreens.com for printing. Kept getting message "Firefox has stopped working. A problem is preventing the program from working correctly. Windows will close the program...." Tried uploading using Chrome & no problems at all. Problem continued today -- also getting the same error message in firefox options/add-ons/security, etc. Have restarted computer, refreshed firefox, ran in safe mode -- same thing happens. Bitdefender security is up-to-date Checked Mozilla Crash Reporter -- NOTHING shows for yesterday or today.
Bitdefender does show this info at approx. same timeframe as some of the crashes (although it only shows 3 instances & firefox crashed many more times than that) -- Potentially malicious application blocked 2 hours ago

As of today, I can't select the checkbox besides a message in yahoo mail. Doing so just opens up the message. I would like to go back to being able to use the checkbox to select many emails for deletion at the same time. I was able to do this in yahoo mail up until today. This only happens in Firefox. When I open my yahoo mail in Internet Explorer, it works just fine the way it always did.

Dark theme can be tested by reversing the foreground and background colors in the HTML.
For reference, here is the correct GDI rendering of this website:

In Firefox ESR 52.4.1 (32-bit), text renders correctly:
https://i.imgur.com/InrXmeI.png https://i.imgur.com/kn3bZra.png
which is the same as the GDI rendering of this website, except for some line spacing issues.
However, in Firefox 70.0b6 (32-bit), the rendering regressed and text no longer renders correctly:

Line spacing is correct, but don't let this distract you from how profoundly unsmooth the rendering is in the light theme version. The dark theme version is nearly identical though.
