I tried using Firefox on a new device, I wanted to sync with my previous settings to just restore them, I was unable to remember the password at that time so I reset it, after resetting it it still didn't work and different problems came up so I tried fixing it in a different way. Long story short im unable to connect my current profile (which I used previously with that email) with that account, so im also unable to start any ways of syncing as only this message appears

"This profile was previously synced to a different account

To keep your data organized and secure, each Firefox profile can only be synced to one account. To sign in using email, create a new profile."

Right now im just using a backup which basically restores the profile, but if im doing something on one device it shouldnt sync to the other one, whats the best way of fixing it, is there a way of desyncing the profile with the mozilla account or start a fresh profile but slightly alter some values so I can use this one?

Kind Regards

After update to 141.0.3(64bit), sidebar comes with waste space, as pink area in attached image.

It didn't shows in these years I'm using FF, I want to remove it but keep sidebar exist, like it was before. Where can I adjust it ?

If it's needed to be exist, why not put it on top of Sidebar ?

When I click on a link, it opens in a new tab. I do not want the link to open in a new tab but to open in the current tab, how can I change to this please? Thanks, Andrew.

i went to about:config -> browser.translations.enable and also browser.translations.automaticallyPopup , making sure it reads "false", and also went to Firefox Menu > Settings > General > Language and Appearance and under Languages the only language other than spanish (the language i want the browser to be) is english (maybe that way it recognizes it as an "allowed" language or something and doesnt translate from it)

...but it still translates pages from english (sometimes even translating the search result and directing me to a translate-version of the page instead of to the the page itself).

how can i make it not translate things from english anymore? (if the only solution is to stop translating altogether from any language, i'll gladly take it as long as it stops translating from english)

我在使用 Firefox（最新版，作業系統為 MacOS）進行線上付款時，遇到信用卡 3D 驗證無法成功的問題. Yahoo及蝦皮都無法完成驗證（交易OTC）。購物流程進行到付款畫面，點擊「送出」後，3D Secure 驗證視窗完全沒有跳出，或者跳出後顯示錯誤，導致交易一直失敗。我停用了廣告阻擋及防追蹤的擴充套件，情況依然存在。

請協助檢查 Firefox 在 3D 驗證流程中的可能相容性或彈出視窗問題，感謝！

In the past, I've always relied on the 'Recently closed windows' option to retrieve my session when Firefox closes unexpectedly. However, lately, seemingly every time Firefox is closed out and then opened up again, 'Recently closed windows' is blanked out and the only option available is 'Restore previous session'--which, almost invariably, does not work and instead simply opens up a new instance of the homepage in a new window. Is there some way to disable the session restore functionality? Or to get 'Recently closed windows' to actually store my recently closed windows?

Trying to access a court site, and it won't take my credit card info form payment until popups are disabled. I don't recall every enabling popups, but that may be automatic when browser is loaded/updated.

I can't check this block on this page (Email me when someone answers the thread). If there is criteria for checking the block, why don't you post the criteria?

Hello, I’m glad to be using your browser. I noticed you have a feature to save and close a group of tabs; however, I can’t use it with the shortcut. Is this feature supported?

When I brought Firefox up about a week ago, it presented me with a survey, results of which were sent to Firefox developers. They asked several multiple choice questions about features, but they didn't ask a very important question: Would you use Firefox more if it used less system memory? I currently use Google Chrome for about 2/3 of my web browsing because Firefox uses up too much system memory. I would prefer to use Firefox most of the time, but can't, since it bogs down when memory usage gets too high.

The survey should have included a text input box so users could enter any comments for the developers, and the survey did NOT do that.

So, after completing the survey, I was disappointed that I couldn't comment on the most important issue I have with Firefox. I would like the Firefox dev team to try get Firefox's use of system memory down. A short while ago, I opened 4 websites in Google Chrome, then opened the exact same 4 websites in Firefox. The attached shows the memory usage of each browser.

I see that this addon called Rotate Youtube Video (+ Zoom / Mirror) is restricted for violating Mozilla policies.

Has anyone taken look into it what was exact violation? I am curious if it was stealing info on background? It just says it violated policies but I want to know if it is safe to keep using it? Like if it was disabled for legal reasons then I would not care but if it was disabled for containing malware then I would care. Any ideas?
