Account --> Manage account --> add --> secondary email --> (i put the code) and then firefox returns: account already exists. this is not true.server dont clean the cache? i dont now.

After version 149, I find I am asked to provide the Windows password in order to modify or copy saved passwords (but not fill when visiting a site). I had already set a primary password to secure my saved passwords, so this never should have happened. Turning off this setting also prompts for the Windows password. In v151, I recommend that Firefox allow the primary password to be used instead, for both managing passwords and turning off the "require device sign in" setting.

I can understand trying to force password security and encryption upon users who do not have a primary password set, but that should have been accomplished by prompting the user to set a primary password. Users with primary passwords should have been excepted from the change. "Require device sign in" should never have been an option - local system passwords are not designed for this use, and no consumer-grade app should have access to them.

As a CISSP I never recommend that anyone use browser-based password managers at all, but I do use the Firefox one for some non-critical sites. This discovery has been an annoyance, but worse, it reveals a poor understanding of security on the part of Mozilla.

I'm using Firefox v126. I'm searching through the add-ons trying to find a few that I like and most don't work with my older version of Firefox. So I click into the version history of the add-on and find an older version of the add-on that will work with the version of Firefox I am running. Except... I click it and I get:

"The add-on downloaded from this site could not be installed because it appears to be corrupt."

say what? ok maybe a fluke, so I click on through, older version, older version, still old version. All give me the same error. Okay, maybe its just the add-on, no, its literally any older version of any add-on.

No way all those versions of add-ons are "corrupt." I can download the .xpi, rename to .zip and view the contents. Anyone run into this particular problem before and if so, how did you fix it? I'm keen to keep v126 of Firefox and would like to use the add-ons that I like to work with it.

Fire fox is automatically playing videos/sound or both if I click on a tab that has that or also in facebook, etc. How do I stop this? I want to be able to click play when I want to hear/see something.

Firefox was misbehaving. I didn't see an obvious link to reinstall, so I went to the Mozilla site and initiated the install. There was an error message indicating that it did not complete. It now seems that I have lost all my settings/bookmarks/history etc. Please help.

After the latest update Facebook no longer works no matter what link i try to get onto it. It just shows the timer icon in the address bar but does not load.

Still works on Edge and my android phone so its something to do with the update.

I am unable to load my Facebook . have Googled the problem but am anable to perform most of their advice. I am running W11 and have emptied the cache but this didn't fix the problem. Please help !!

This morning I tried to sign in to my Credit Union account. I clicked on my sign-in name, nothing there. I went to my password for my Credit Union account & the entire password manager listing is blank. There are no accounts listed at all. Have someone stolen my information? Did I press something wrong to delete them? I'm 78 years old & not very computer knowledgeable. I have used Firefox for maybe 15 years old & have never had any kind of problem before. Kind I restore this part of my account?

I have used Firefox as primary browser on my Mac for many years — never Safari.

Until yesterday, I used Safari as the only browser on my iPhone.

I now see all my Safari bookmarks in the iPhone’s new Firefox browser, but not the important open Safari tabs.

How can I sync my iPhone Safari web page tabs to Firefox on both devices, and sync the Mac’s open Firefox web page tabs to iPhone Firefox?

FF updated to 150 and I tried to use the new VPN feature but couldn't find it. Looked up the directions and couldn't find where it was supposed to be. After trying the hamburger, more tools and customize toolbar I made the mistake to 'reset toolbar'. I lost my extension shortcuts and when I tried hamburger-more tools-customize toolbar they weren't there. I tried doing it from the extension page, no luck, then I tried to disable the extensions and reenable in hopes their icons would repopulate the toolbar, no luck. Is there a way to do this? It's like FF is blocking me from adding them from the customize toolbar page and the extensions page. Also, I never did find the FF VPN either after it updated to FF 150.

Thanks in advance!!

Search bars are stuttering and videos audio is running twice at the same time, sometimes three times over top one another so garbled up you can't understand the audio. When I type in duckduckgo search or any web page search bar, it happened on Chewy, & Walmart, search bars also. Example: (Search: MetallicaMetallica JamesJames Hetfield ) Everytime I hit space bar it adds the same word again.
