I prefer to use Startpage as my search engine with Firefox on my Mac. I have that set up, but it's so annoying that when I put something in the address or search bar, no search happens. Instead, I just get the Startpage home page and then have to retype the same thing in there! How do I solve this?

My sister hit some sort of weird shortcut and now most websites are broken and have weirdly inverted colors, mostly google sites. Gmail is weird, Google Docs are weird, and a LOT more but too lazy to keep track/pull em up. Absolutely no clue what to do, and I dont really wanna factory reset my browser, so if someone by any miracle could tell me what shortcut she hit, thatd be helpful.

Around 12/28/2024 my LastPass Password Manager extension dropped off my Firefox. When I tried to reinstall nothing happens except the flashing dots, which just go on. The LassPass extension does work on my Chrome browser (only used as a backup, Firefox using Duckduckgo rules)

Steps I have taken. Relaunched firefox. Rebooted laptop Deleted all Lastpass cookies. Did a firefox refresh. Tried to install older version of lastpass, they download but won't let me add.

Please Help? Thanks

Hello,

I recently reinstalled Windows on my computer and expected Firefox to sync and restore my saved passwords, as I had enabled Firefox Sync before reinstalling. However, after syncing my account, my passwords did not appear, and I am unable to access them.

I have already tried the following steps:

   Checked the sync status of my Firefox account.
   Ensured that I am signed into the correct Firefox account on my browser.
   Searched for any relevant troubleshooting steps but haven't been able to resolve the issue.

Could you please assist me in restoring my saved passwords or provide any guidance on how I can retrieve them?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards, Tameem

Hi, my account seems to have some kind of admin or enterprise control on it, but I'm not part of an organization. It says:

Information Your browser is being managed by your organization.

I don't know how to fix this, but it is keeping me from updating and doing other things like clearing cache and adjusting my settings.

How can I fix this?

I don't know how it happened.

Thank you

Shouldn't SAVED Payment Methods have a "Nickname" so we can know which one to use? I have a few cards I manage and use to buy for myself, my wife, and my daughter. There are too many for me to remember which of the accounts is for whom.

A simple nickname would add great ease of use!

I get bills in PDF form from my water and gas provider. When I pay the bills I use Adobe to add a "PAID" sticker and a comment indicating when the bill was paid, and then I save the PDF (from Adobe) with the newly added comment. Previously I was able to open these PDFs in Firefox and the contents of the comment (added via Adobe) was visible; however, recently when I used Adobe to add a comment to a PDF and then opened it in Firefox the contents of the comment were not displayed (NOTE: I opened the PDF in Edge and it displays the contents of the comment, but it doesn't display with the same wrapping as used when the comment was created in Adobe). Interestingly, older PDFs that I added comments to still open correctly in Firefox i.e. they display the contents of the comment. I am assuming there has been some sort of update to Adobe, and was wondering if there needs to be an update to Firefox to continue to allow the contents of comments in the PDF to be displayed.

Wikipedia render Thai fonts correctly. But it seems to render Latin texts and numbers in "TH Charm of AU" font for Thai articles, which I did not set anywhere in the browser (and my operating system). Ticking "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" does not fix it either. But it renders fonts correctly in English version of the same article. (See the attached images).

Any ways to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

hi everyone, first of all, happy new year.

while browsing reddit, i keep seeing these strange underlined empty links on random words/names. for example this comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/moviecritic/comments/1hpse0f/comment/m4jxdwq/ shows the name of actress underlined.

i disabled all my extensions and the problem persisted. i checked using chrome and the problem didn't exist.

on inspect element i found something called faceplate-tracker though.

any clue what is this? and how to deal with it?
