Firefox Community Forum

I'm just wondering when developers will get their heads out of their butts, and provide a "one-way sync" for firefox. I'm so fricking annoyed at the sync changing around my setups with bookmarks, passwords, etc when I sync between my primary computer and others that I don't use as often. Is this concept just to difficult too comprehend?

Hi, I have over a hundred tabs that persist in reloading automatically even after I closed (deleted?) them one-by-one. My pc is low on memory, and this situation (the automatic reloading of my many unwanted tabs) is not helping matters any! I have already bookmarked most of them, and do not need them hanging around in my tabs window. How can I get rid of my unwanted tabs? I have already tried to clear all cookies and everything else I can clear, and that did not seem to help either. Anyone, please advise. Thanks.

Bookmarks keep changing to globe ocon and nothing happens when I cilck on them. I have tried suggested solutions but without success. Can I get technician to access my laptop and sort out like with other Apps support etc?

Overnight my Firefox Home page no longer show the three rows of shortcuts I have had for years. The setting still is correct in Settings but no icons are shown - I have tried to recreate them but still no shortcut icoins! How can I recreate or recover them? Win11, fully up to date.

What a nuisance. As the subject says - I've never had a Primary Password. All of a sudden you're being a nuisance over it, so I've created one via your "Forgot Password" procedure. As I never EVER want Mozilla to remember passwords for me, and that appears to be one of the reasons you give for having a "Primary Password", I find this change highly objectionable. Just regard this as feedback, because I imagine that now I'll be saddled with my "Primary Password" forever, or until I change to a different browser. John Gipps

I want to import the book marks from one computer to another. I can't sync them. I made an HTML file as instructed with the first computer. Moved the files via USB to the second computer desktop. Opened Mange Bookmarks. Clicked Restore, then Choose file. Nothing happened. No new window opened. ?? Tried Import Bookmarks from HTML, still no new window opened. Tried the Import function in my account. I was able to import my passwords. But it said that the HTML file did not have any HTML data. ?? Also it does not allow use of a json file.

bookmarks from Mac laptop to Mack desktop

What can I do now?

How do I delete Government Gateway user ID number stored in my computer. When i go on the website and enter the first digit, several numbers appear starting with that digit. I would like only one number to appear.

I expected "export passwords" to also export the password to my mozilla account, but it did not. I'm now locked out of my account. I signed into this form with google, is there something similar I can do to get my mozilla account back? The drive I had firefox on is wiped.

Hi I use VoiceOver on my Mac to type quickly and it is integral for my day-to-day tasks. However, I encounter an issue when using certain commands to make selections and subsequent corrections to things I type in a text field.

A brief explanation of VoiceOver I am having issue with I speak "select previous word/sentence/paragraph" etc. (anything that isn't x letters) the command is not executed properly.

To be completely honest the commands are unpredicatble and more often than not select commands do not work.

So if I am searching something on google and VoiceOver mistypes or mishears something I need to manually go back and correct it, this is a big accesibility issue and it's a shame because I love firefox, however this is a major accesibility issue for me.

Is there a way to set a default webcam so website gets access to the not-first-camera by default?

Firefox will ask me if I want to allow a website to access my webcam - I do want the website to access my webcam. But when I choose the correct camera (3rd on the drop-down) and click allow, it just prompts me repeatedly (usually 2-3 times per session, every time I visit the page) if I want to use the camera & have to repeatedly select the 3rd camera on the list. If I check the box to "always allow" then firefox defaults to the first camera on the list, which is a view of my desktop, not actually my webcam (because that's what the first camera in the list is used for - displaying my desktop).

What I want is to set a specific camera to always be allowed on a website, but NEVER let the website have access to the other 4 cameras in the drop-down list. I'd even be okay permanently disabling those 4 cameras from Firefox because I only use them with other applications. I only want firefox to ever use the 3rd camera in the list exclusively, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that.

The Safari browser on my iPad has a handy feature where you can get it to make a list of all tabs in an open window. I've already searched through the help pages but I don't see this particular thing discussed. I absolutely love feature and hope that Firefox offers it. Or is it only available on a third party extension?

I'm using the latest version of Firefox. Thanks in advance for any help provided.

Every time, but only in the last two days, I try to click through to anything related to American Partisan.org, get a "bad request"error message. I have never had this problem in many years of visiting this site and clicking various linked articles on site. I am still receiving email from this site daily with no problems, but cannot click from the email to the site itself. I am not very computer savvy having grown up using a dial telephone in another millennium. I hope the solution is simple. I have no such problems with the site in question on the same email account on my cell phone. I have no similar problems with any other sites on my computer. Here is the message:

They [rimary password quit woking so changed it in mozzzila account which I'm logged into the browser, but it will not allow me to change the primary password in the browser or access a lot of stuff, . I updated the Password in the Mozzilla account, and since doing that the browser fails to sync.

I cannot figure out how to fix this in a lenovo laptop running stupid windows 11

I've used firefox for quite awhile, recently, incognito mode stopped deleting the sites visited while it's in use. It appears that none of the settings have changed. I'm told there is a box to check if you want your history while in the mode to be erased. I do not remember ever having this before and it seems counter intuitive.

I have used FireFox for years now and I am happy but... yesterday after I synced my info across two computers and my Android phone, suddenly my wallpaper selection on my laptop disappeared.

I had a photograph and instead of seeing it? I have a white background and the photographer's name who took the photo but the photo is no longer showing as my wallpaper..

BUT I went to edit the wallpaper and selected a color but it doesnt appear. no item I select from the menu of wallpaper items actually appears on my browser

Please help if you can! Firefox on my other computer is working fine in this regard and this one WAS working fine until yesterday after I synced the devices.

thanks, Keith

Since buying a windows 11 laptop, text on websites on my remote monitor usually appears to be roughly "printed" and lightly "inked", but will temporarily become darker and normal appearing at intervals from 5-30 second, but will soon revert to nearly unreadable. Text appears normal on my connected laptop monitor. The remote monitor text appears and stays normal when I run in firefox troubleshoot mode, but reverts after I turn troubleshoot mode off. I've refreshed firefox, replaced the xulstore.json file. Nothing has helped except running in troublehoot mode. Help!
