Earlier today I changed my settings in "Privaty & Security" to "Clear history when Firefox closes". In that setting I selected to only delete "Browsing and download history."

I assumed this would just delete my browsing history from the URL bar, but now after I closed Firefox, it also deleted all my tabs!! There were many important tabs that I don't want to lose. But I also can't find them under 'recently closed tabs', and I also tried a solution from this forum, namely to find the recovery file and upload them to https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html -- but they don't contain my old tabs either!

Is there still something I can do to recover my lost tabs??

Dear Firefox,

Yesterday 1-2-23 I lost my tabs. When I tried to restore them I followed the suggestions listed in "help". I clicked on the "menu" on the top right of my browser, found the "history" and selected it. The "restore" option did not appear. On my macbook pro 2012 os 10.13.6 I had 3 "desktop" selections. I had a browser window on each of the desktops that held multiple tabs. The third "desktop" was the "dashboard" which mostly had widgets. Somehow the browser window from one of the Desktops was applied to the dashboard and when I tried to remove it the result was that it closed and was removed from all desktops.

How can I find the sessions or tabs that were present on Jan 1 or before? I'm not that tech savy and would love to be able to speak with a real person that would be able to walk me through a solution if there is a solution.

As of a few weeks ago, I can no longer copy and paste when using Outlook for emails with Firefox as the browser. I have no issues if I use the MSN browser. When using Firefox, I can copy and paste in the subject line but not the body of the text. This is a real pain! I had no issues until a few weeks ago. If I try to copy and paste, I am able to copy but when I right click I no longer get a "paste" option. I now have an emoji option in its place. What's up with that?! I am using Windows 11 as the operating system on a Dell computer. Thanks in advance!

I've deleted cache and cookies, rebooted, etc. I've checked and the Firefox version is up to date.

What can I do to fix this? Thx

Each attempt to log in to my bank account, using Firefox browser straight up, results in an access denied refusal. If I go to Duckduckgo.com and search for my bank, I can access the bank account. I wonder if you have other complaints/comments to that effect, too. It is an aggravation and my bank, Navy Federal Credit Union (NFCU), did not have a solution but suggested I contact Firefox direct.

Here is a copied response, as an example:

"Access Denied

You don't have permission to access "http://signon.navyfederal.org/siteminderagent/forms/nfcu.fcc" on this server.

I cannot figure out what the deal is. Every time I launch Firefox I have to re sign into YouTube. I have tried the following troubleshooting methods after looking it up.

Type about:preferences#privacy<enter> in the address bar. The button next to History, select Use Custom Settings.

Turn off Always Use Private Browsing Mode Turn on Remember My Browsing And Download History At the bottom of the page, turn on Clear History When Firefox Closes. At the far right, press the Settings button. Turn on ONLY Cache and Form And Search History leaving the others off.

and whatever else you want.

This is not working I have also disabled all extensions and am still having this issue. It is only with YouTube no other site does this to me.

I research a LOT. So I have 12,000+ Bookmarks in 100's of subfolders covering 100's of topics. The only conceivable way to organize them is to view the contents of many subfolders SIMULTANEOUSLY and be able to do massive drag & drops between them.

Just like I could do 15 years ago using the old Windows Favorites folder and the 100's of subfolders within it.

(In my opinion it was a really BAD idea to stray from that paradigm. When I moved to Firefox I went from being VERY well-organized to having a complete cluster. In the old days I could IMMEDIATELY access any Favorite via Start Menu or any other Windows way. The unwieldiness of Firefox's Library -- in the context of a hi volume of Bookmarks -- has made such organization impossible, and rendered my Bookmarks practically useless.)

If I had access to the old way, I could probably organize 12,000 Bookmarks in a day. The present Firefox Library is gonna take me about 2 weeks -- seriously. Because I can only view the contents of 1 folder at a time and also because a ton of scrolling is necessary to drag & drop. And lastly because I don't have the contextual "forest" visible to me for decision-making since I can only see 1 "tree" at a time. Basically its NOT DO-ABLE. Surely I can't be the only person with this issue.

My searches for a solution have only turned up the apparently defunct PlainOldFavorites extension.

This has been painful for well over a decade, but its reached a crisis point. Thank you.

Recently anytime I've tried watching videos on Youtube or Twitter on my desktop PC I've been having issues. On Youtube, It takes about 5 seconds to start a video (including ads), 5 seconds to load up a place I skipped to in the video even if it's loaded, and if I go to the start of the video sometimes it won't even try playing. On Twitter, videos are hit or miss, most won't play, and others will autoplay but will stop working if you pause or skip. Tumblr and TikTok work fine.

I've tried running a private tab (disabling extensions) and still have issues, I've tried turning off hardware acceleration, clearing data, and even reinstalling Firefox. I tried both Twitter and Youtube on Chrome and video playback worked just as well as Firefox used to. I also updated my video card driver to see if it'd help without luck. I have great internet that I haven't had recent issues with either to cause loading problems.

I hope to find a solution soon, I haven't found anyone else sharing this issue yet, but that I've found, it's Firefox. If there's any additional information that'd be helpful that I can get I can try getting it.

Had to reinstall windows, so of course I backup everything except for one thing. Should not be a biggy since it gets stored and synced. Except when the syncing isnt working no matter what fixes you try. I disabled eset, grabbed an even older profile from a older backup try see if it was due to the profile. still nothing. Suggested and tried: Creating a bookmark and removing. Creating a new profile and loging in to sync there. adding an addon something in about:config to force everything syncing resetting browser troubleshoot mode rebooting pc

Every fix I have tried. I don't get why I cannot just see what sync is doing instead of a spinning icon perhaps a segment on the settings menu of sync since you made a segment for that anyways. I feel stupid for forgetting to copy my profile but firefox is stupid for not being able to have it just simply download the freaking profile. Like I get software sometimes messes up for random reasons. But if only there was then an backup option to download my profile as it is loose from the settings segment. As if its so hard to download a 200~mb profile (I assume since my old profile was around that). I know it can take long to download from what I read but I let it run for over an hour and nothing.

Honestly I am livid that there is no option now to sync my account and that I can get no feedback other than a log that is just mostly gibberish for the average user. why can't I just see error reading from server or corrupt profile cannot download or w.e or downloading xxxxxx file @5% 0.00001kbps.

I get sync isn't meant to be a cloud storage system but in the past it always worked when I forgot the profile backup and if it didn't I was able to fix it back then somehow. I hope someone can help resolve this so I don't loose everything.

I am trying to sync my bookmarks and saved passwords. The last time I did a sync the information in my Android cell phone was synced to my Windows 10 PC. However, I use my Windows 10 PC as my main entry point. When I did the above-mentioned sync, some old information on my Android cell was transferred to my Windows 10 PC (which I no longer wanted to save / sync) and new information that I had entered on my Windows 10 PC was no longer available on either my Windows 10 PC or Android cell. Therefore my question - how do I sync FROM my Windows 10 PC TO an Android cell? That is, I want the bookmarks and passwords on my Windows 10 PC to remain the same and that information to replace everything on my Android cell. All help would be appreciated. Thank you.
