Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

Is there a way to save a session or your set of tabs? My "Open previous windows and tabs" is checked on. But occasionally the app will erase the tabs when you've relaunched or quit the app. Such an easy request for Mozilla never to implement into the feature of this web browser.

Hi I'm running a Mac - macOS Monterey 12.1 (21C52) and using Firefox 96.0.2 (64-bit).

Yesterday I wiped my Mac and set it up as brand new. I downloaded my saved Bookmarks and Passwords to Safari and then tried to add my Bookmarks and Passwords to Firefox but the option to import "Other Data" is not showing (see attachment).

Anyone know why this is specifically not showing up regardless of whether I try and import from Safari or Chrome?

Hello

Hoping someone can help me with this asap.

I was prompted to update firefox on my mac laptop.

So I did the update by clicking the button available at the top of the firefox browser, but now I can not open Firefox at all.

When I click on the firefox icon it does not open firefox and this message appears: You can't use this version of the application "Firefox with the version of OS X. You have OS X 10.11.6 . The application requires OS X 10.12 or later.

I understand what this means but not sure how to revert back to the previous version of firefox.

When installing the new update/version of firefox, i have deleted the old version of firefox.

I am following these instructions currently to try to resolve it: https://www.wikihow.com/Downgrade-Firefox

Following the instructions above I went to: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ , but can not find the previous version of firefox that I need.

The only info I have on firefox is version 102.2.0. I am after the version before this as assume that is the one compatable with my laptop currently (i can not update the OS ).

Can you help me download the previous version so it is compatable with my mac laptop?

Thanks for your help in advance

Hi, I am having issues while using my website howtowatchstreaming on Firefox, while it loads perfectly on Chrome and Edge. Despite the media files being perfectly optimized, some of them fail to load even after refreshing the page multiple times. Other websites seem to work fine. Any tips or ideas please.

So... I was using an older Waterfox version on my Mac (10.14.16), and I wanted to update it, but in order to do that I had to download the latest version, leading to me having two Waterfox browsers at the same time.

I wanted to migrate all my passwords, bookmarks, and other goodies to the newer browser.

One thing lead to another, and I found myself fiddling with the Profiles folder. Then I went on to fiddle with the about:profiles page, and... I accidentally created a new profile, but because I didn't assign any folder to it (didn't know you had to do that), it took the whole Profiles folder as its folder. I then went on to delete it, but I clicked on the delete data option. And then *poof* everything was gone.

Luckily I have a backup from Jan 17, but I think I added some bookmarks in the meantime :/

I did a whole scan with the EaseUS Recovery tool (it took like 5 hours), and I managed to find some bookmark files. They are the same size as they used to be, but I think they are corrupt. I tried importing the newest recovered bookmark file into the new Waterfox, and I got the "Unable to process the backup file" message. I tried converting the .jsonlz4 file to just .json, and then tried opening it... still no luck (I used a software called "Max"). I tried uploading the .jsonlz4 file to jeffersonsher's website, and got this:

File name: bookmarks-2022-01-29_3093_5IkRcH-v-sL8tiFAlFCZuQ==.jsonlz4; Size: 497164; last modified 1/28/2022, 5:15:57 PM (failed JSON parsing: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected end of data at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data)

I tried converting it to .json and then to .txt, and the text was corrupt. All sorts of symbols and numbers, and above that, the document is fairly short.

Am I out of luck and everything is forever gone?

I am not a smart or advanced user, so I don't know anything about this sort of stuff.

Help! Today, I updated from v. 88.x to the latest v. 89.x of Firefox for Mac OS. Unfortunately, the new look and interface of v. 89 is very difficult for me to see and use. The menu bar items (text and icons) are too small, and everything is too small, too light and low-contrast gray with no borders ,etc. I've been using Firefox for Mac OS for at least 15 years, and I've never been so dissatisfied by the look of an upgrade. I am running on a Mac Pro with OS X 10.14.6.

Having played with the various preference menus in v. 89.x that I could find, I am not able to find settings to return the look to that of the previous version. Is there a "theme" to make the interface user-friendly again, or do I need to actually revert to v. 88.x? If I need to go back to v. 88.x, how do I do that and preserve all of my original settings, bookmark, etc.? Thank you!

I am trying to organize my homepage tiles with shortcuts to the sites I frequent most.

Some sites have their logo automatically appear in the tiles, for other websites it does not.

For those that the logo does not appear automatically, I edit the tile and select "Use a custom image"

Upon entering the URL, the image appears in the preview, but once I save, the tiles appears blank (just a white square).

Any suggestions on what I can do? Ive tried various images for various tiles - it appears as soon as I try to add a custom one it goes blank (see screen shot as example)

On another user's account, cannot go back to earlier FF version, profile files missing. Cannot start _any_ revision, old or current (using OSX Sierra on that user & different FF versions - the shared data you see her is NOT the same ) details here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1356226

I don't see the profiles.ini and installs.ini files within the Profiles folder. I see the general format from looking at good ones in my own Profile.

Don't understand why some are "locked."

How do I re-create them using the existing Profile names, and how do I denote which to startup using (the default folder?) Can't find any Help files to explain.

This is driving me mad, we are using the same physical computer because mine broke, so I start it up off an external drive containing my drive, then I have to shut down & restart on the internal drive to work on it, but then I don't have access to my saved files or to post on the forum.

I'm working in Berlin for a few weeks - searching or typing in an URL will default to the German language version of the site and not allow visiting the English language site. How to stop this?

Thanks

Ben

Hello -

I recently organized my bookmarks through "manage bookmarks" and it worked fine for a few days. Now, the organization I did does not show up on my bookmarks toolbar but it does show up when I click "manage bookmarks."

What's not syncing up? Any guidance is appreciated! Thank you!

Hi.

After the recent update of MacOS Big Sur to 11.5.2, my Firefox browser cannot display web pages in dark mode. I've tried reinstalling Firefox, reinstalling MacOSX, used Time Machine, changed Mac display settings, changed Firefox settings and nothing works. I've attached a screenshot of how my monitor looks after the update. The background is always white If anybody has a suggestion of how to fix this or what is wrong, please let me know so others can benefit from it if they have the same problem.

Notice the white background behind the number 1,2,3,4.

I chose lavender as the background color, but I hate it. It has changed all my links to lavender and I want to go back to the default settings before I added the lavender. I want the default settings before the Colorways options were made available.

Even though I have figured out how to change the themes, the lavender color is still present in certain words. I want it to go. I want what I had before I added the lavender theme.

I have looked at the articles, but I cannot find an option that says "go back to what you had before" or "undo" or "restore default settings". I'm possibly missing a step. Don't know. I'm frustrated that I can add something so easily, but not get rid of it so easily.

Please help me restore my back ground colors to pre-Colorways add-on lavender. I have a Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.6.

Hi, none of the videos appear/play on this CNN site that is all about videos. Only still shots appear. The videos play in Chrome. Here is the site: https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/23/world/videos-of-the-week-mobile-april-23/index.html

I've already tried toggling the "Enhanced Protection" switch off and on to no effect. I don't see any option for enabling/disabling permissions for audio/video in the address bar as appear on other sites offering video or audio. Thanks for any remedies.
