Firefox 64.0.2 (64-bit) will not sync my Notes. I installed it through testpilot. I use Sync without issues to sync my Bookmarks. I click on the "Sign in to Sync" field, which shows the sign-in page, I sign in, and it returns me to the Notes bar where the field now reads "Reconnect to Sync", and after a while "Activate your Account". I also get a mail "New sign in to Sync". Did this several times, and on two different PC - a Laptop with Windows 10 and a desktop with Windows 7. My Android account has Notes connect to Sync without any issues. I tried the same with Noscript and ublock disabled. Thanks a lot for any pointers

Upon restart of Firefox 62.0 64-bit (on Windows 7 64-bit OS), the download directory changes

When I exit Firefox, restart it, and attempt to save file / page, Firefox offers to save it to a download directory that is different than the one specified under options.
I have confirmed numerous times that the proper download directory is specified in the Options.
Of course, after correcting the download directory, everything is saved to the proper location until the next restart.
I would appreciate any suggestions. I am not certain that I want to take the chance of refreshing the browser.

For the recent 6 months or so, I didn't know what was wrong with my downloads until I came up with the idea of downloading in another browser, which solved the problem (I just downloaded a 10GB file), that was never possible in Firefox, even the 250MB's fail! (I have low download speed).
Prior to that I thought there was a problem in the cables, router (which I replaced) , settings, security software, extensions, I tried disabling/removing them with no luck. But now at least I know the problem is within Firefox itself, so please help me identify what's wrong exactly and how can I solve it! thanks!
Oh, I forget to say that the frequent fails started to happen after the Quantum update AND to a larger extent after I installed Simple mass downloader extension. (I tried disabling/removing it, but there was always a problem after that point!). https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-mass-downloader/ Maybe also because I have a lot of bookmarks (about 10000). Maybe that contributes to it(?). I don't know!
How to stop multiprocessing being disabled on start?

- Summary
I am unable to enable multiprocessing. I tried enabling it by setting `browser.tabs.remote.autostart` to `true` in `about:config`. However whenever I quit and re-open the browser, that setting has been changed back to `false`. How can I get it to stay `true`?
- Details:
- Firefox 64.0.2, 64 bit, Windows 7.
- This computer is managed by my employer. However I installed Firefox myself, straight from mozilla.org.
- `about:support` says `Multiprocess Windows 0/1 (Disabled)`. (Note that if an add-on is causing multiprocessing to be disabled, it will say "Disabled by Add-on", which is not what I'm seeing.)
- What I've tried:
- I have disabled my addons.
- I have looked for prefs.js and mozilla.cfg in the locations listed here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1237547 The only one which exists is `C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\pref.js`. I do not have sufficient permissions to modify or delete that. The contents seem unrelated:
``` /* This Source Code Form is subject to the terms of the Mozilla Public
* License, v. 2.0. If a copy of the MPL was not distributed with this * file, You can obtain one at http://mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/. */
//pref("app.update.channel", "release"); ```
- I went to `about:support`, clicked on "Profile Folder: Open Folder", (C:\Users\$USERNAME\ApPData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\$HEX.default`) searched for prefs.js in that folder. I quit firefox, changed the `browser.tabs.remote.autostart` setting there to true, saved, and started firefox again. The setting in `about:config` was false, and `about:support` shows multiprocessing is disabled.
Impact: I am not able to use the "responsive design" functionality. Also, the browser is quite slow. (I don't even have many tabs open, always < 15)
Ditty News Ticker on Wordpress not showing links on my Firefox browser but does show up on others.

I have a ditty news ticker on my Wordpress site (https://www.visionarycomics.com/), it is located at the top of the main page. The title of the ticker (BREAKING NEWS) shows up, but the rotating links will not show up on my Firefox browser. They do show up on other browsers like Chrome, and other people have said they can see the links on their Firefox browser, so I'm wondering if there is some setting I have on mine that prevents me from seeing these?
We thought it might be outdated themes and fonts, but fixed those, I checked Wordpress support and found a similar problem which was fixed by adding custom CSS code to the ticker, so I did that, and nothing works.
I would appreciate any help or guidance on this.

Recently (perhaps the last 6 months) I keep noticing that the order of bookmarks within folders sometimes changes.
For example, I have one folder where I keep bookmarks of all my discussions on a certain site. To create my bookmarks, I always drag the site down from the padlock icon into the folder. Newly-added bookmarks are always added to the bottom of the folder, so I know that they're all in chronological order - newer at the bottom. But lately, I'll sometimes go to that folder to find that many of the bookmarks have randomly changed order, and they never go back to where they used to be.
When this happens, I also find that I can't drag the bookmarks into the correct position. I'll drag the bookmark to where it's supposed to be, and the highlighted line will indicate where it's going to go. But when I let go of the button and go back to the folder, it's moved to some totally different, random place in the folder.
This doesn't seem to happen to all folders, only certain ones. Also, I've only noticed it happening in top-level folders, not nested folders.
I have over 25,000 bookmarks in total, so being able to keep them well-organized is important to me. I've used Firefox for about 12 years and this has never been a problem before.

"Gah. Your tab just crashed." This is getting frustrating.
So far I cannot pinpoint what type of sites crash, because it varies.
Right now, the default about:home tab crashes.

When do you plan to fix long-standing bugs: yellow-bar errors, distracting on-tab animations

After 10 years... my users expect an end-user-friendly, reliable browser. Sadly, IE or even Chrome now match that description better than Firefox 63+.
(Feel free to break these into separately-trackable issues, if you like)
1. Please purge ALL non-essential animations currently built into the product (as opposed to a website, obviously.) All animations *on the Firefox-generated tabs* are extraneous, CPU-robbing and distracting. End-users expect a reliable, consistent, non-distracting product.
2. Don't require CSS (code) changes to work around product defects (like dysfunctional on-tab animations). Provide a user-friendly setting to block *all* Firefox-provided animation effects, some of which can cause medical-related reactions for some users (I used to be in that category).
3. Fix the damn yellow-bar warnings, once and for all. "A web page is slowing down your browser" is NOT a helpful diagnostic; but we've been seeing it for years now. Please replace it with something that will lead customers to figure out how to solve it. For starters, report WHAT site is triggering the yellow-bars.
4. Please don't assume users all have high-end CPUs; do some release testing with (e.g.) Celeron 900-based laptops. (Yes, you can "subcontract" those tests to me ;)

01/10/2019 - after a year of having this problem, and having it also on current version of Firefox (64.0.2), I desperately installed Firefox Nightly (66.0a1). It Worked! After a year of sending bug reports - this version of Firefox fixed it. I don’t know if it is a sub-product or deliberate work of a true wizard, but I feel like you need to know and you need to add this to the next release – whatever it is.

I've tried updating to version 64.0 when it came out few weeks ago, but after restarting Firefox every tab from previous session that I tried reloading or any pages opened in new tabs kept crashing. I've tried safe mode but it didn't make any difference. Only solution was returning back to 63.0.3 where everything works fine. Today I've tried updating to 64.0.2 hoping that problem was fixed, but it still remains. Even went to try latest 65 beta, but same thing every tab that gets in focus and reloads, tab crashed immediately and cannot be restored. I don't have many add-ons, but one thing I've noticed is if I try to go to Panorama Tab Groups it crashes entire Firefox. However disabling that add-on didn't help with tab crashes. This is all happening on Windows 7 64-bit, while on my other computer with Windows 10 64-bit everything works fine on version 64.0 and 64.0.2 with same add-ons installed. Here is a list off add-ons used on both computers:
+ Close Tab Button + Dark Reader + Livemarks + Nuke Anything + Panorama Tab Groups + uBlock Origin + Web Developer + Zoom Image
Do you have any ideas how to fix this problem.

I am using <line> elements of width 1.5 to connect <rect> elements. This all looks fine but if the image is dynamically scaled down to show more of the diagram then some of the lines eventually disappear. I tried this in Chrome and it appears to work fine.
Rather than present any code, I can point to an example in a blog-post at: https://parallax-viewpoint.blogspot.com/2018/12/further-travels-of-walking-boots.html. Scroll to the bottom of the post and there's an embedded SVG "family tree" image that uses the JavaScript pan-zoom library to dynamically scale the diagram.
On the default setting, not all lines will show -- probably dependent upon whether they fall on a pixel boundary or not. As the image is gradually scaled up, you will notice that the lines will eventually all show. Contrast this with Chrome where the lines always appear to show.
