Is there a benefit to my changing the cookie settings in Firefox from standard to strict? Will this benefit me overall if I do this or would it cause problems that make my user experience poor? And if I change to the Firefox strict cookie setting would I then be able to give certain websites permission to use cookies without restriction at their discretion, such as say a website like Fidelity investments, which is a website and corporation I’m fairly certain would only use cookies to improve my user experience and not to sell or track in any way that would harm me. So that particular website would have more cookie ability than all the other websites that would governed by the strict cookie setting. In other words, if I go to the Firefox strict cookie setting, would I be able to make exceptions for websites on a one by one basis, websites that I trust? Thanks for your help, Steve.

These may be silly questions, but I cannot seem to find the setting or procedure:

1) How do I change an incognito tab to non-incognito in FF? Is that possible without having to copy and paste the url to a new browser tab? 2) Is it possible to export browser tabs from FF Focus to non-incognito tabs in FF? All I see are “Open in Chrome” and “Open in Firefox”. The FF option always opens in an incognito tab.

Just trying to find a a quick and easy way to go from an open tab in FF Focus to an open, non-incognito/regular tab in FF app where I save my tabs for future work etc. (all of this in iOS 18, iPhone)

Thank you for your time and assistance!

Two devices - MacBook Air and an iPhone. Both run the latest Firefox application, respectively. Starting with both applications having the bookmarks synchronised. Next, the bookmarks on one of the devices, say the laptop, are changed - some deleted, new added, overall bookmarks folders edited.

Question: How is it possible to ensure that Firefox synchronisation will transfer the latest compilation of bookmarks, as edited on the laptop, to the mobile phone application and not the other way round, undesireably restoring the preceding compilation, instead?

Hello. When trying to browse websites using cellular data only, some kind of security block prevents the websites from loading. It says the it’s pretending to be the website and possibly could steal my information. When using WiFi, the same websites load without any issues and no security blocks. The warning message also says something about only the administrator can make changes or something along those lines. What should I do to get this bullshit off my phone? Please help! I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Hi,

I do not have a toolbar setting that I can find on my Firefox installation on my iPad. I want to move the toolbar from top to bottom, but I can’t do it. I’ve tried reinstalling and selecting “bottom” for the toolbar location in the tour, even after clearing all data, and it doesn’t move. Should be so easy!
