Good morning,

I enjoy your brief weather update on your Desktop Home Page, but a suggestion would be to allow the user to add two or more locations for other family locations, vacation home locations or just other locations we love around the word.

Thanks for your consideration.

How can I unsync desktop from laptop bookmarks?

Selected update Mozilla to Windows 11 yesterday on desktop and am now seeing two sets of bookmarks on both devices. Laptop bookmarks were originally separate from desktop. Laptop is mine and desktop is my wifes. Did not know that it would auto sync both devices.

Is it possible to unsync/separate?

Thanks

I don't know which question best describes my question. I have always used Firefox because it had two boxes for searching. This meant that you could type a search into the second box while keeping the first box open. Now that second url box is gone. How can I get it back? I used it all the time!

As the title suggest - I am unable to access LI at all.

It's not a profile issue because it loads fine on Edge. It's not an extension issue because it causes the same problems in troubleshooting mode, and it does get me to at least the login page on a private window.

Please help. I'm not sure how to resolve this. It's blocking a lot of my work.

Thanks in advance!

Firefox Blocking 1 Password password manager

I just purchased 1Password because I need a password manager. I like Firefox and want to continue using it as my browser. My operating system is Windows 11 on a new Dell laptop.

But when I try to use the 1Password icon in the browser to save login information, I get only 3 choices: monitor, relay, and Firefox VPN. None works for 1Password.

I am very frustrated about this and hope my fellow Firefoxers can help me. I am disappointed Firefox offers no tech support.

Apple's "Platform SSO" sort of works on FFox for Mac, but not on webapps fronted by Microsoft (e.g. sharepoint).

I'm on MacOS 15.6, and FFox 142. My company recently rolled out "PSSO" for Mac users, and it works pretty well on non-Microsoft sites. However, when accessing resources behind MS Azure/Entra, such as outlook.com, sharepoint, even github, we get the following error from "login.microsoftonliine.com":

You can't get there from here Your sign-in was successful, but you can't open this resource from this web browser. You might be able to access it from the Safari browser (ask your IT department for a list of approved mobile and desktop applications).

All of these worked fine before PSSO while using Yubikeys (in fact I plan to revert to Yubikey next week).

The IT department says that Mozilla needs to implement this, referencing the "only applies on Windows" statement shown on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/windows-sso . They (and I) have demonstrated that it also works just as intended on Chrome and Edge browsers.

And yet, we see that "Microsoft SSO" was added in FFox 132: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1768724

Who needs to do what to make this work on Microsoft web-apps?

Whenever I play something in the browser while connected to my TV by HDMI, the sound still comes out of the laptop speakers. This happened suddenly, without any discernible reason, and I can't seem to fix it. Everything else works, only content played from Firefox remains in the laptop speakers. I've checked my audio mixer, nothing seems amiss, I've updated Firefox and refreshed the application, still nothing. Hell, I've even tried different cables and HDMI ports, but nothing works. What could be the issue? Why did my audio suddenly stop working, and what can I do about it?

Добрый день! Я много лет использую firefox для работы, я работаю в банке, и недавно нам дали расширение для мессенджера где ми общаемся с клиентами и можем добавлять документы легче и другие функции. У меня возникла проблема, так как я не могу его установить никак. Я питалась установить его по инструкциям с сайта, но безуспешно. Расширение фактически самостоятельно написано нашими разработчиками и инструкция по установке только на Chrome, и вігдядит она примерно так: скачиваете себе архив, извлекаете файлы пишете chrome://extensions включаете режим разработчика и загружаете туда файлы что были извлечены из архива.

Прошу детальную инструкцию как я могу это сделать для firefox.

After the 8/5/25 Firefox update the internet is inaccessible on my laptop through the standard Firefox browser. The internet is accessible with MS Edge. Toolbar is set to always show bookmarks but none appear. Also, the browser's application's menu does not open to access options such as restore previous session, recently closed tabs, etc. I've restarted my device several times without it resolving the issues with the standard browser.

The Firefox developer version opened in command prompt safe mode (firefox -safe-mode), which is how this inquiry is being sent, but no bookmarks on tool bar or current page history from the standard (non-developer) Firefox.

I'd like to return to accessing the internet using the standard Firefox version with its bookmarks, history, etc. I am using Windows 10. Thank you.

34+ Firefox processes open using up all my memory

Im using Windows 10 Pro 64 bit on a Asus laptop with 32GB RAM in it and a i9-9980HK @ 2.40GHz. It has a GeForce RTX 2060 graphics card in it with 6GB memory. I use it for work and need to have multiple tabs open at a time as a result. I always have at least 4 tabs and can sometimes get up to around 10. I also have Zoom running as well.

I keep seeing a ton of Firefox processes open when I look at Task Manager. Attached is a screenshot I just took with 7 tabs open. It shows 34 processes in the first clump with more open outside of that one.

I unchecked Use recommended performance settings and checked Use hardware acceleration when available but all that did is lower the amount of RAM being used by 100MB. I have 2 extensions enabled in Firefox, AdBlocker for YouTube and AdBlocker Ultimate. They have never been a problem before. This lag and massive overusage of RAM has only started in the last couple of weeks.

Anyone know why this is happening or how to reduce how much RAM Firefox is using? I like this browser and would have to have to switch to another one. Thanks in advance.
