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

Running Mint on a removable drive on Win 11 machine. Launched Firefox and wanted to sync across devices. Finally ended up here (see attached). There's no "synch & save data" and the other sync at top of settings doesn't follow that path. The image on the Mint desktop doesn't scan within Firefox and using a separate scanner app produces a "do this within FF" error. Confusing and no way to resolve. I tried an extension scanner no help. Attachment shows Sync Now only possible method not correct (what I describe above).2nd image is what I see on PC screen (via Mint).

I've been using Firefox for a while, and while there are many things I like about it, it has always been a resource hog. In the past I could get around this by just killing Firefox in Windows Resource Manager and restarting, but ever since getting a new computer an upgrading to Windows 11, it's gotten worse. Every couple of days my computer freezes for 10 or more minutes, I'm having to do a hard reboot ever few days, and I'm even bluescreening about twice a month. I'm pretty sure Firefox is the culprit because killing it will usually resolve the issue.

I'm wondering if there is some way to put Firefox in a sandbox so it does not consume nearly all available memory and other computer resources. It is by far the biggest consumer of resources on my system and I do not want to dedicate 4GB+ of memory to an app that is just showing a couple of web pages and playing YouTube videos.

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.

What can I do now?

Why isn't the Firefox browser supported by many services and social networks? They even state in the warning that Firefox is not supported! Why should users tolerate this?

Почему браузер FireFox не поддерживается многими сервисами и социальными сетями? Так и пишут в предупреждение, что этот браузер FireFox не поддерживается! Почему пользователи должны терпеть это?

Hello there

I'm running version 146.0.1 (64 bit) on a Windows 10 machine, and I've found that trying to use printscreen now opens Firefox. I cannot discern why, if it's a Windows setting or a keyboard issue or anything else

things I've tried:

- Disabling every extension - Disabling AMD Radeon - Disabling ShareX (My normal screenshot program) - Factory resetting my Keychron Q6 Max (in case there's some weird macro that got set up)

Any ideas? This might not be a firefox issue, but I figured I'd ask here. Thank you

does Firefox allow for me to block a specific URL ex (winred.com) a simple line edit to block sites

Thanks Dwight

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.

The last 2 days i have had problems signing into my Aliexpress account. The site has told me it is temporarily unavailable, then that the server is taking too long and now that parental controls have been used.

I am 68. I don't need or use my computer for sites that require parental control.

Suddenly Firefox has begun to play bell tones for clicks with my mouse.

I am unable to disable this new behavior. It is ONLY happening with Firefox. No other browsers behave in this manner.

My PC sounds are shut off.

I never want bell tones ever at any time. Please help me discontinue this behavior as soon as possible. As someone who works with professional audio recording this is especially undesirable and disturbing.

Please. Somebody. Stop the madness.

Thanks!!

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.

I have my nonprofit's website through Weebly...but recently I cannot get it to come up when I type in the address...I get an error that says PR End of File Error. I am able to access the website through Edge...but I hate Edge!!!!

But it makes me think there is a setting through Weebly that is making Firefox not show the site.

Any help or advice would be great appreciated.

Well being an OAP I needed new laptop. Always used Firefox browser but finding it difficult to get restarted. Had to opt out of window s to even download. Apparently I can transmit(?) my existing passwords etc from one laptop to another is this correct? Only basic computer knowledge but trying hard !! Karen x
