I don't know why but all of my browsing history disappeared a few days ago from my desktop firefox. I'm not sure but i was away a few days and when i came back I might have updated firefox, so it was recent.

Already checked the profiles folders to see if it created a new profile or something. There's another profile, but the history file does not contain anything.

I checked firefox on my android and I think my history is still there, but since i cannot filter im not sure. At least it is syncing with desktop.

It already synchronized both ways but still no luck. What can I do?

Question: What setting will allow mimimalized Firefox windows to visibly appear on my Macbook dock?

I have spent hours trying to figure out why all of my minimalized windows (with multiple tabs) seem to disappear into my Firefox icon instead of being visible on my Mac dock as they have for decades.

Running the latest Sequoia 15.1 and latest Firefox 132.02, in the last couple weeks, when I click the yellow "minimalize" button on the top left of my Firefox window, they disappear and are inaccessible. If I press Control + Tab, I can see the windows, but can not access them. I've tried endless attempts to correct this in my Mac system settings and in Firefox settings with no luck! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I don't know how to put it into words that well, but, it's as if my Firefox is just a clickable picture. If I try to use the search engine, it won't let me search, just put words in. If I try to open the menu, I can't, I can only click on the three lines with no pop-up. I can't use my addons, I can't even open another tab. I've tried opening other windows, restarting my computer, leaving it off for a while, and letting it stay on for hours, but it still isn't working. I tried running the updater, but It won't run. I tried running the maintenance service, same outcome. I don't want to delete Firefox because I fear that my account didn't probably sync some important things. I don't know what to do, this all happened after an update. Here's a video of what's going on: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PBpoHDn29gUp2mCK8I38V4oPwsXRwL0r/view?usp=sharing

I currently use Firefox on Windows with a policies.json located in "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\distribution" to ensure some required settings like a proxy server or SSO-portal as home page are in place, so users unable to read a documentation can still use the system. Now I need a browser without proxy for some applications. Currently I use a portable FF, but that's twice the work for updates. While I could just add another profile to the system FF and add a Icon, it still would use the global policies, as such locking me from changing certain values.

Is there any command line argument to ignore policies for this one session, specify another one or change the policy-file to ignore certain profile names?

normally I prefer Mozilla Firefox. but while the last ca.12 month minimum 2 by day I had a blackout and it was necessary to restart the computer. this is out of question - so I cannot work. Now I changed to Google Chrome but I am not content. There is no privacy. But to work with Mozilla is not longer interest because of the permanent restarts. What the matter?

I would like to be able to see a history list of ALL pages AS VISITED. For example, I will go to search engine and enter say "mozilla". I will click on an item that comes up, then back to the search. Click on another item in the search page, then back to the search, etc, etc. However the "history" in firefox does not list the visits back to the search engine, why not?? How can I get a complete history list of sites as visited? I need this so I can get back to the search where I was last when I visit one of those annoying sites such as "https://inacal.isolutions.iso.org/obp/ui#!iso:std:iso:8124:-1:ed-5:v1:en" which somehow blocks the back button. Actually that is another question, how can we stop sites from disabling the back button?

On Mac OS, Cmd+? AKA Cmd+Shift+/ (on a US keyboard, at least, these are the same) is the standard shortcut to open a search bar inside the Help menu that searches through the commands in the menu. See attached screenshot.

As you can see, Firefox seems to bind it to "Get Help" (which is wrong for Mac OS).

Even worse, if you actually press Cmd+?, the Help menu flashes open and closed, and nothing happens. If you press Cmd+? twice in rapid succession, the "Get Help" command executes.

Is this a bug? Is there a way around this?

I am using Firefox 132.0.1 (aarch64) on Mac OS Sonoma 14.7.1.

For reference, https://superuser.com/questions/201798/how-do-i-make-cmd-work-the-native-way-with-firefox-for-mac claims this was fixed in Firefox 4 many years ago.

It's also possible to change the Mac OS shortcut in the Mac OS Settings -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> App Shortcuts, but I'd rather not.

After years of working without an issue, now whenever I open Firefox only some of the windows that were open when I shut down can be re-opened. Others are still listed in the "Window" menu, but clicking on them results in nothing. I also cannot delete them.

I am currently using Firefox v132.0 on a 2024 MacBoook Pro running Sonoma 14.6.

Hey Gang,

Sooooo, this is Driving Me Nuts!!!

Facebook.com is Redirecting to https://business.facebook.com/business/loginpage/ after I log in.

I have LITERALLY tried everything to fix this (and I'm no noob)!!!! It's not a Plugin or Extension, it's not related to HTTPS over DNS or any Browser Privacy Settings; not a Cookie or any Saved Site Setting, nor is it anything in My Antivirus or Windows 10 Registry (I purged EVERYTHING!). Nothing in the Hosts File, etc etc etc....

It was working until whatever update I did, and it works fine in Opera and Chrome as well as on another PC with a fully patched FF Browser.

Any Ideas or a Solution would be EPIC, I am ALMOST out of options and I'm all Grepped Out....TIA!


Thanks Gang!
