I had to reset Firefox because of a hack to my FB account. I've recreated all of the icons I use but Gmail won't add since Google doesn't think my desktop is one of my devices. I can receive Gmail if I use Chrome. I've tried reaching Google by leaving messages @ the Freemont office in Seattle but thought maybe Mozilla had an answer. Thanks for listening.

I made the mistake to following Mozilla's advice on why my tabs stopped coming back after I closed out, despite the fact that I had that selected in my settings. Now I'm stuck with an "Old Firefox Data" folder on my desktop and I can't remove it because I need administrator privileges -- but it's my personal PC. WTF

When i browse for anything that has some location, like a restaurant, city, or whatever, there is seemingly no way to access google maps for that site from the page. There used to be mutliple ways to go to google maps for that thing either by a "map" text button in the menu under the search bar, or by clicking the thumbnail of tha map you can see in the right of my example. now i have to go specifically search for maps, then search again for the thing there. Why did you make these changes? and will you ever revert/find a solution for this? Its actually such an annoyance for me as much of the searching i do is for looking up places. and related information about those places. If i am missing some functionality or alternative please let me know.

Hello everybody, I'm facing some problems with the camera settings: when accessing vcall sites (e. g. zoom or google meet) they don't ask permissions for the camera, it looks like I have no camera installed, which is not true, of course, and in fact with Ungoogled Chromium everything works fine. When trying to add manually the sites in the whitelist nothing happens, they're simply ignored. On the other side, the microphone settings work properly. Thanks in advance for any support.

Regards from Italy

I have logged into my account on three computers: personal linux, personal windows, and work. Previously, I could easily disable the extension on one computer and it continued to work on others. Now, when the "Plasma integrations" extension is disabled on Windows computers, it is also disabled on linux. If I disable some extensions on my work computer, it will also be disabled on my personal computers. If I disable extension synchronization on my work computer, it will also be disabled on others. That is, if I log in to my account on a new device, I will have to manually install extensions. Question: How can I return to the old behavior, when it was possible to disable installed extensions on only one device?

I recently installed Firefox for security reasons, but I now realize it might be not better than other browsers... I had a (good) number of tabs opened in 12 Simple Tab Groups, which were opening all right everytime I restarted my computer. But today, Firefox opened and oh, all my tabs have disappeared ! All 12 Simple Tab Groups are empty. In the Recently Closed Tabs in History, I only could find and reopen 26 tabs - a very small part of the tabs I had... Please, tell me if there is a solution to recover all my tabs. Is the problem with Firefox or with the Simple Tab extension?

I have a Snowflake add-on, which requires WebRTC for connections. But WebRTC is not permanently active in my Firefox browser. See image. I activate WebRTC by toggling the config variable media.peerconnection.enabled into 'true' and the add-on works. For some time, only! After a couple of days it is back to 'WebRTC not detected'. What is wrong?

For the past 2 months I've found it very difficult to sign into my Hotmail account using Firefox. Microsoft keep telling me to use a VPN or another device. I like answering emails on my computer because of its large screen. I've tried signing in about 2000 times now. Firefox told me they can't help me because I'm not a Mozilla subscriber even though they own Firefox. Microsoft told me it's Mozilla's problem. Can anyone help me please. John in the Philippines.

Hi all, I'm really confused. I posted about this the other day, but it doesn't look like that topic got any views, and I have a bit more information, so I'm starting a new topic here. When I click on a link in an email, whether that be from Thunderbird or Outlook, Firefox opens as expected, but none of my settings appear to carry over. That means I don't have access to my browsing history, it prompts if Firefox should use Zoom to open links which should already be set, and other things that act like Firefox is not customized yet, even though it's been my default browser for years now. Additionally, I'm not sure if Chrome got set as my default browser or if it asks every time it detects another browser is open, but it asked me again today if I wanted to set it as my default. I had Chrome open because I use it when interacting with the Google applications for my work. When I went in to set the default file types for Firefox, two Firefox options showed up, so I'm not sure which one to choose. Can someone please help with this?

Hello: I recently reloaded Windows 10 onto a PC and reinstalled Microsoft Office 2010. Outlook is working fine, but will not be the email for sending links in Firefox. Outlook does not show up in the list of options for sending email links in Firefox. It is the default email program in the Settings. It worked seamlessly previously. Any suggestions? Thank you.
