Firefox Community Forum

I have noticed that Firefox has been getting too many updates recently...even as much as 2 updates this week alone. Frankly i'm sick of getting the green icons and pop-ups in the upper right corner. Is there a way in about:blank codes to turn off these stealth downloading behaviour and prompt pop-ups to restart the browser and let me just manually do it in settings when i want to but without notifications ?

Backed up Thunderbird, with no issues, to external hard drive. Attempted same with Firefox but copy did not take place. Upon next boot for Firefox the system flagged "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible" I have appended OLD to the original profile and created a new folder. Firefox now loads and operates. Could you please advise the best way to retrieve my OLD profile.

Many thanks

I'm trying to have Google.ca as my homepage, but Firefox won't let me. It keep reverting back to Google.com Please help. Claude Hamel [edited] @gmail.com

I've recently sync'd my PC bookmarks etc to my android tablet and since then web sites that previously remembered me now keeping asking me to log in. BBC news, FaceBook are examples.

No doubt I had something to do with the (fancy font uppercase in bold) B appearing in my Firefox header line as the first and left-most character (image attached). Anyone know the source for this and how to shut it and anything else it does off? I like many others I have read commenting about unwanted things thru the PC years that have a disdain of things that sneak through uninvited.

The other thing so far as I know had nothing to do with Mozilla or Firefox but I'll mention it in case someone has an idea. A product install by the same name permanently labeled an outboard drive with this label bold text'Roboform2Gobold text. I know how it got there, it was with the install the product by that name, which I uninstalled, and no one from that company would or couldn't tell me how to get rid of the relabeling it had done. Uninstalling the software didn't take it out, and no one in a general forum had any suggestions. I know the traditional approach of adding or changing a label, but change attempts don't affect this reminder of a poor product that I had decided not to keep. They refunded, but did not help with the changeless drive label.

How can I transfer all of my data and settings from Mozilla Firefox to the Firefox ESR version. I have Windows 7. I installed the ESR version but all of my bookmarks and settings disappeared. I still have the current version of Mozilla Firefox, which is no longer supported. If I can't easily and quickly incorporate all of my current settings, etc., to the temporary ESR version, and I uninstall the ESR version without that operation automatically uninstalling the current version?

I have Mozilla accounts for my personal email AND my work email. I wanted to work from home, so I tried to login with my work email and a warning came up that my bookmarks etc would get merged. I do not want this, but couldn't find an option to just switch accounts. Is this possible?

Hello,

I have a new account with Citizens Bank, but I don't seem to have access. I enter my username and password, and it prompts me to get a code on my phone. I do this, and once I enter it, I am taken back to the login page again.

I cleared all the associated cookies, but that didn't resolve the issue.

I can log in with Safari, but Firefox is my preferred browser.

Is there a security issue involved here?

Could I get some help with this?

Thank you, Silvia Dominguez

Hello!

I would like to know if Firefox has any settings to disable the POP-UPs that inform that "the password is being entered via insecure means (http)" and/or alarms for self-signed certificates on local networks? I work accessing the configuration pages of equipment (routers, switches, firewalls, APs, etc...) and these messages are very annoying. They disrupt the workflow and are unpleasant.

Is there any extension that makes a list of security exceptions (for example, everything on the 192.168.0.0/16, 172.16.0.0/12, 10.0.0.0/8 network)? It would be interesting if Firefox itself had this exception option.

PS.: Translated by Google.

I have a setting that keeps some videos from appearing and playing i.e. on yahoo.com - I can't figure out what setting it is!!! Maybe it is an extension?? An add-on??? Suggestions please.

Thank you -

Support, I'm using v115.23.1ESR & my OS is 10.14.5. When I'm logged into the Pinterest website, a page with different images is visible for viewing. When I click on an individual image on that page to view it in more detail, that page opens but there is no image visible. This problem started with v115.23.0. I was hoping that the update to v115.23.1 would eliminate this, but it is still occurring. So I'm hoping you can help. I'm also adding some images. In screen shot 1, I clicked on the Madonna & dolphin image. Screen shot 2 shows the result: no image.

I tried two other browsers and had no problems, Firefox is my default browser.

Looking forward to your advice, tbird301

Dear and respected Firefox Dev Crew,

I you can say love Mozilla Firefox and have been using it for a quite long time now ,but the issue i have with her it is a pure fact that every new version that gets pushed out is worse that previous one by many things like this 138.0.4 that after installing better say updating to it was has it done it has removed all my addressees from URL address bar ,furthermore ,the ones i do not want in previous versions i was like all of us able to delete simply and effectively by pressing shift+ delete which has not been so to say debunked or non working for quite a long time and only way to delete unwanted address from URL bar is to go to History and than find that site and push forget about this site which is annoying because like previous shift + delete which just did it's job of deleting the desired address ,method of deleting unwanted addresses from the URL bar is annoying,frustrating and a glitch in code i guess because without any reason what so ever do you want it or not the deleted address space will be populated by another even more annoying and non needed site and like that in circle ,i just want my URL ADDRESS BAR to be populated with shortcuts to the site which i want and need and that is all nothing more not Firefox to be populating my address bar with everything it get his hands on which frustrates to the point of madness cause in setting Firefox has been customized to populate address bar just with the shortcuts ,but i want them to be shortcuts i want ,i will need, i will use, and i will utilize not populated by some site i visited once 1000 years ago ! Thank you very much on your guidance and listening to problems each new version brings and if someone has a suggestion on how can i stop that and get out of Firefox what i want and need it for thank you i'll will be more than grateful on your support! All The best ! And o yea for the end what is the exact number Firefox URL address bar can hold ? With respect
