Please explain how to ACTUALLY sync my collections & bookmarks from Firefox on my Android Device with Firefox in a browser. I am signed in to my Mozilla/Firefox account, and have Firefox open on my android Phone. When I click on Sync on the phone, It says go to go to some address similar to firefox.com/Pair - but when I typed this exact address NOTHING happens ( I can't find it now, that page won't come up anymore.) I only get sent to the sync page of the web browser - When I click on add a device - NOTHING happens again. after 7-8 attempts, I FINALLY allegedly set up Sync using my email and password - but now I can't tell if anything is happening!?!

How will I know if things are synchronized? How will I access these bookmarks & history? Where do I look for it when in the Windows browser? NOTHING about this is evident or makes any sense. Nothing works as your instructions say it should. So here's my requests:

    • It would be REALLY helpful if someone would actually write out a description of what it Means to sync your FIrefox tabs and bookmarks across browsers - what is actually synced, and how can we access it? **

And my number one Question - **I have a LOT of bookmarks in "Collections" in Firefox on my Android phone. Can these 'Collections' be synced to the online desktop browser?** That is the main reason I want to sync in the first place - but I don't see Collections as an option anywhere in the Windows Firefox browser

I have "Open tabs in links instead of new windows" checked.

I have no plug-ins that would cause this.

I have experimented with the various, conflicting "about:config" directions given online. (Nothing works, so I have reset about:config to default.)

  • It is also worth noting the Firefox Support page is immune to its own Dark mode. WHY.

I am going to switch to Opera, since it has none of these problems.

Before commenting or responding on this post, make sure you actually READ IT first. I am so tired of these online MANSPLAINERS being all, "Go to about:config and do blah-blah-blah," or, "This is what you do: Go to Settings > General > Tabs > make sure you check the box that says "Open tabs in links instead of new windows."

Seriously, way too many people online are like customer support agents on the phone: "Try unplugging it and wait 15 seconds, then plug it back in; try closing it and restarting it."

If anyone has any real solution, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I use Gmail, and when I receive a newsletter from the local government, Gmail does not display the images in the newsletter. I've set Gmail to display the images (photographs), so I'm guessing Firefox must have a setting that is blocking the display?

I was having an issue with pdfs on firefox; all my pdfs were showing up as black. To fix that, I refreshed firefox, which solved the problem just fine. Unfortunately, once I did all my extensions stopped working. The page looks like this.

For most of my extensions, I can just solve this by getting rid of them and adding them again, but if I do that for onetab I'd lose all my stored tabs. How can I get this back?

As of today, when I launch firefox, all of my tabs (which have been working fine for the last several days) crash.

https://i.imgur.com/7vrmvam.png

By disabling all of my addons, I get this to go away - and by testing addons one at a time I am able to determine that: -Ublock Origin -Kaskpersky Password Manager Cause all of my tabs to crash.

Whereas: -Sponsorblock for Youtube -Youtube Nonstop Both crash if I visit youtube, but don't affect the browser otherwise.

So it seems like ALL addons are currently broken when they try to affect a tab?

Can’t see “Manage Site List” for Multi-Account Containers

Hi there,

I’m using the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension and would like to remove a site that’s been set to "Always open in [X] container." However, I don’t see a “Manage Site List” option anywhere in the container settings as seen here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

   I’ve clicked the Containers icon and selected the gear ⚙️ to edit a container.
   I enabled privacy.userContext.siteAssignments.enabled in about:config and set it to true.
   I restarted Firefox (with session restore on), but still no option appears to view or manage assigned sites.

I’m on Firefox Desktop (Mac), and I’ve confirmed that I’m using the official Multi-Account Containers extension.

Is this a bug, a UI change, or something I’m missing? I’d really prefer not to manually edit the containers.json file if there’s a built-in way to manage these assignments.

Thanks so much for any guidance!

タブグループ機能が出しゃばってきて邪魔なのでoffにさせて欲しい

タブグループ機能が邪魔なので該当機能をオフにできるように変更して欲しい。 簡単な操作で事故りやすい上に、機能そのものを使わない設定にできず押し付けられてうっとうしいので今すぐにでも削除して欲しい!それが嫌ならオンオフ位は選べるように修正する事。不具合とみなしているので速い内に直した方が良い。あまりにもうっとうしい。

I was trying to go to ssa.gov, today, and hit the button to login. When I did that, I got a 400 page saying: Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

I have done this before, and it worked. To test if it was a problem with the web page or the browser, I did it from another browser (Brave), and it loaded fine. Is Firefox sending a bad request? Is this something you can fix.

I am using Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint 137.0.1 (64 bit).
