Hi,

I searched the web for deleting the item "Weitere Lesezeichen" in the sidebar. I found only solutions for the firefox 85. In Firefox 85 should be a field for hiding this. Although in Firefox 150 it can`t be hided or deleted. I don`t need and I don`t want this "Weitere Lesezeichen". Any solutions?

This has happened randomly on several different computers, both windows and ubuntu linux. It just now happened on my Win 11 computer. Was viewing the CNN news site and FF suddenly closed, without a "FF crashed..." message.When I clicked the icon to reopen it, it came up with the home page group of tabs instead of reopening the windows and tabs that were opened when it crashed. Worse, none of the previous months of history shows up and recently closed tabs and windows are both greyed out.

Is there a way of recovering the history of what I was working on at the time of the crash and what the hell is causing this? I am close to dumping FF and going with something else as this is highly annoying.

I can't figure out which topic to use for this but I can't submit it without one.

When I click on the star icon in the address bar the star icon is filled in, and existing bookmarks do show with the filled-in star icon and they work. But I no longer get a dropdown where I can assign a folder, edit, tag, or delete an existing bookmark, and the pages I've tried to bookmark don't show up in Recently Bookmarked so they haven't been added. I don't know if it has something to do with the toolbar?

Nothing I can find online helps. The places.sqlite file in my profile is not read-only, and I refreshed Firefox (stupidly, before I took a screenshot of the pinned shortcuts on my New Tabs page) and that made no difference. The only extension I use is UBlock Origin. Changing profiles did not help. This is on my personal laptop and no organization controls my settings.

I stay up to date on Windows 11 and Firefox updates. I do use a VPN but it never interfered with bookmarking functionality before. (I see Firefox offers a free one now but I've got a couple of years left on my paid subscription).

I asked the community but got no replies. (I did "reply" to add more information which no longer applies, and I can't seem to delete the "reply".)

Thanks in advance for any help!

On my home screen, the visited sites are all crammed to one side, lower left, and all narrow in their appearance. I prefer they look as they did before, with the "tabs" or site boxes along the bottom of my regular sites. And I can't seem to "delete" the sites I visit; I can only dismiss them. And that often doesn't work as well either.

A radio station https://www.wfmt.com/schedule/ that has run successfully until today in Firefox no longer does, There is momentary blip of sound but then silence. It runs fine in Chrome. Another station continues to run successfully in Firefox

The Firefox icon on the taskbar on my PC suddenly appeared to have a 'rosette' stuck to it. I didn't understand what was happening? I decided it was not relevant to me and while I was attempting to get rid of it, I unintentionally deleted my personal profile in "Profiles"! This contained many important bookmarks and the important password manager extension. I am not very technical, but please can you show me how to recover my profile? Many thanks, Norman Clarke

I cannot log in to Amazon.ca using Firefox. When I input my email address to Amazon, it says I look like a new customer so let's set up an account. I am not a new customer and my account on Amazon works fine if I sign in through the Chrome browser. I have tried refreshing Firefox and also tried using Troubleshoot Mode, but the problem with Firefox persists. Is there a fix? Firefox must be blocking some type of data that Amazon requires but even white-listing the website doesn't seem to work.

Never before problem with my Windows 11 Desktop frequently shows an incorrect location. Firefox shows my location as Parkdale, Victoria. Australia and not my correct Florida location. This is a recent Firefox issue. Location is correct in Edge and Chrome. Location is correct on my Iphone and Ipad. A new install of Firefox on a second Windows 11 PC also shows the incorrect Australia location. Changing proxy settings makes no difference. A clean install of Firefox made no difference. Changing browser made no difference. This is a recent problem and unique to Firefox. Thanks

Download arrow shows 5 recently added downloads. Clicking on the folder Icon next to the file does nothing. I cannot open file location. I tried Troubleshooting mode, didn't help. I have totally removed FireFox using Revo Uninstaller Pro and reinstalled with no avail. What's next?

I followed the advise and removed all the profiles from my laptop. (Copies are on an external hard drive.) And I used the download file from the Mozilla community site which is 490 KB versus the 375 KB download file from firefox.com just in case the smaller file was corrupted. But I still got the Profile Missing error message.

I am trying to simulate a laptop that has never used Firefox and so can't say that "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded.  It may be missing or inaccessible."  I uninstalled Firefox using the Installed Apps page. Can there be fragments of Firefox that I need to hunt down and remove? I also removed the Old Firefox Data folder from the desktop.

How can I successfully install Firefox? Then I will use my old profiles that contain all my bookmarks.

When I select a bookmark to select a web site I have other web sites loading in along with the selected. This just started all of a sudden.

How do I stop it?

I've tried to import all the passwords I had saved on Brave, which I am leaving. There's one way which is in Firefox itself, where the little icons spin and it says passwords and other things have been saved. But the passwords have not come over. I've gone to several AI engines, and they have me create HTML or .csv files, but these aren't working either. When I tell AI this, I get suggestions so complicated I'd have to be an expert to use.
