Firefox Community Forum

My laptop operating system Linux ubuntu crashed. I had to reboot using new linux OS Linux Mint. Laptop now working but have lost all my search. I sometimes use DuckDuck to serach. Help in recovering my bookmarks.

An errant setting on my backup program wrecked havoc on my FF profile. I have a backup from two weeks ago which I can go back to, but I'm trying to figure out how to get my browsing history from the past two weeks over to the restored profile.

Some options I thought about: and for clarity, the newer but bad profile is still loadable, I've mainly lost all my extension settings and stored data

• Is there any tool that would sync the entries from the newer/bad profile to the older/good profile?
• If I restore the older/good profile, would FF Sync just add back in the newer entries -- which presumably it has saved in it's system over the past two weeks?
• I believe the places.sqlite" file from the newer/bad profile is still intact. Should I just copy that to the older/bad profile?

Why didn't you tell me when you asked me to reset my password that it would wipe out all of my sync data????😰😠😭

If I would have known I would have just waited to try my password again later.

There must be a way. This just happened the whole reason why I signed in was to sync my data to my new phone. PLEASE recover my data!!!!!!!

And pls change ur UI to say in when asking if you want to change ur email password that it may wipe all ur data and nothing will be available!!!

There must be a way. This just happened and I can prob recall my old password. Can it be rolled back to yesterday's settings?? Or the setting even from this morning?

🙏 Thanks

A while back I noticed that my google calendar no longer sends reminders to my gmail (or rather, I suspect, gmail does not receive them). Yesterday I missed an important meeting because of this, so I want to get to the bottom of it. I verified that the reminders are properly set in my calendar, so I have to assume that they are going out. The pop-up windows do pop, so I assume that it is not on the calendar side. I also noted that calendar.google.com and gmail.google.com have the proper permissions to send pop-ups and notifications to gmail, which indicates to me that this end of the equation is working. (Don't know how to isolate the error further, though.) It seems that the Firefox settings need to be changed somehow. Any ideas?

Thank you!

Придется вам как-то перевести самостоятельно то что написала на английский. Зачем писать что при обновлении все будет сохранено, если после обновления, половина окон на восстановилась и история предыдущих посещений пропала.? и как мне теперь все это восстановить обратно?'

I have downloaded additional dictionaries to spell check when I'm writing in other languages on the firefox browser, yet I am unable to switch to those dictionaries. I've tried multiple. I have cleared caches. I have restarted. I have installed and uninstalled. I have the latest version.

They simply do not work. I work in multiple languages and would love to continue to use Firefox has my default browser.

How do I prevent MSN from opening Firefox? I am not interested in just blocking the site or a page, I want to block Microsoft from opening software that doesn't even belong to them.

1-can I get the newest update WITHOUT THE New Tab layout? Will all new updates automatically have it? 2-WHY DO YOU GUYS PRESUME THAT "ALL FOLKS" really want new looks... 3-IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT!!

For the Life of me, I cannot Figure-out how to drag-and-drop websites from the Address bar, to the Desktop on the Computer. I tried dragging the Padlock didn't work. I tried dragging the Shield didn't work. Tried even dragging the whole URL. and even made bookmarks with the Link just to try it.

What am I missing? Wracking my brain trying to Figure-out the Conundrum
