EVERY TIME Firefox updates or the computer shuts down, it loses my bookmarks. I check the box next to Bookmarks in Sync, and the second I hit "sync now" the checked box disappears and the bookmarks do not sync. Friggin annoying. I'm not a programmer so I'm hoping for a user-friendly solution. Thanks!

i previously set up profiles using about:profiles, but with the new profiles feature i don't see any of them showing up. i haven't found any articles that allow me to convert the files from about:profiles to use the new one.

i am not logged in to firefox on the others either.

is there a way to link the profile files on my computer to save my bookmarks and history? i don't know if there will be continued support for these files and want to make sure my bookmarks are saved for all of them. i would prefer to stay logged out of the other profiles.

Attached images include screenshots of the empty profiles (one from clicking the profiles from dropdown, one from clicking "manage profiles", and one with blacked out personal data from going to about:profiles).

Sometimes, when I have multiple windows open, closing a window won't completely close. It leaves a blank area where it was, the title of the window is displayed, but clicking in the area just switches to one of the other open windows, and there seems to be no way to finish the process. This has been a problem through the last few Firefox updates. Any thoughts? OS -- macOS Tahoe 26.1 Firefox -- 145.0 (aarch64)

When I try to open a link using Mac Mail "open link behind mail," the new tab in Firefox opens in the foreground. ChatGPT tells me this is a Firefox related issue and is giving me a bunch of about:config alterations to try, but they don't work.

Is ChatGPT leading me astray, hallucinating?

Is there a Firefox fix? This is a new problem. Is it a bug? Thanks.

when I sign in with firefox site comes up with big OOPS on screen says refresh. Refresh but won't go away.

Called Cabelas said the website was working properly. Could firefox be blocking the website

I am having problems navigating using Voice Control which I believe was previously called Voice Over, which allows me to control and type with my voice. It works on Safari however on the Firefox desktop app it is completely broken and I cannot give any commands and typing text doesn't work on some website such as ChatGPT.

I found an old article explaining the support has been added however I don't understand why I can't use Voice Over at all on my Mac.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I love Firefox for Mac, but, on iPad and iPhone, it's impossible to use extensions such as Winger to save tabs. Too many times, I've lost 100 to 200 tabs at once, and so I switched back on iPad and iPhone to Safari. I never had a problem with Safari's built-in window-tab saver on iPad and iPhone but lost thousands of tabs on Mac, hence my move to Firefox on Mac.

On Firefox on Mac, when I click on Firefox View, I can view tabs from other devices, but there's no way to copy multiple tab links at once (you have to go one by one). If I ever were to shift back to Firefox for iPad and iPhone, does anyone know of a way to easily save 100 to 200 tabs from these devices?

I would rather use Firefox because I can't stand how Safari opens links from outside Safari, forcing the use of some new default window over the named window I already have open. It's so much work to micro-manage this browser.

Thank you kindly and enjoy a super day!

I see in one of the past recent updates, I notice that "- Original Profile" is in the windows and not just the title of the website I'm on. Any way to remove it? It looks off and not necessary to me.

I didn't save the code properly on my first attempt to save the verification code so I have to start over. How do I disable the first one? I'm on a Mac Book and a iPhone 16

I got a random pop up on Firefox that I clicked without fully reading it, which closed Firefox and then prompted me for the administrator password (aka the password of that account on my laptop) so Firefox can install a helper tool. I did, and it did nothing. Every time I try to open Firefox I get the same pop up prompt and no matter how many times I give the password nothing happens, and I can't open the application. Clicking cancel on the prompt also does nothing.

I logged onto a different account on my laptop and can use Firefox like normal, but none of my settings/bookmarks/passwords from my other Mac account are saved here.

I would just delete and reinstall Firefox on the administrator account that is having this issue, but I don't know if I have anything properly backed up on Firefox, and I have a ton of things saved on there that I really don't want to lose. What do I do? Please help :(

Last screenshot is what happens when I try to launch Firefox and enter the password when the install helper prompt pops up

I have firefox running on my mac desktop, macbook and iphone. Starting yesterday the firefox password manager has stopped working on my desktop - it won't make any suggestions for passwords on web pages. I've been reduced to going to about:prefererences, manage passwords and manually searching for my password. It still works on my macbook and iphone. Any suggestions as to how to debug this?

I tried restore under managing bookmarks, but it only give me about a week or two's dates as choices. I went back and it is still gone. I looked for an Old Firefox Data file on my desktop (or anywhere on my computer) and did not find that either. If I can't choose to add something to a category or to the tool bar, the bookmark function is not really helpful to me.

Just updated to 144.0.2 (aarch64) on my MacMB Pro running Sequoia 15.7.1 with no other changes and now I can't play any YouTube videos, whether embedded in a website or YT directly. Get eithger a black screen or white, such as below. What arcane setting do I have to mess with now to get this back to normal? (OK in Safari.)

When I want to duplicate a tab, can I configure the 'duplicated' tab so it appears exactly next to the tab I'm duplicating instead of at the end of all the open tabs at the far right end of my browser? If I can't would it be too much of a bother to include that as an option we can configure? Maybe it's ridiculous or I'm using the interface wrong but it's super annoying to have to manually grab the duplicated tab and scoot it back next to the tab you duplicated from. Thanks!

I cannot get Bookmarks to sort. If I got to Manage My Bookmarks I can sort by name but when I select Bookmarks from the top menu and scroll to a folder my sort is gone. How do I fix this? This is true of all folders I have.

Hello,

After recent macOS updates, it appears that Firefox would get stuck when trying to access passkeys stored in macOS's passwords or keychain apps. I run into this issue with both the following two combinations of Firefox versions and macOS

144.0.2 on macOS 26.0 Tahoe

140.4.0esr (aarch64) on macOS 15.7 Sequoia

Any insight is appreciated!

When I close a tab that had a video playing, the picture-in-picture box will stay there after I close the tab. The picture is just a white box. The controls are there, but when I click on any button, nothing happens. I can only move the box around and resize it. It usually happens when I close the tab while the video is playing, but sometimes it happens when I close the tab and the video is paused. It happens on videos that were in a picture-in-picture box and videos that weren't. I go into setting and disable picture-in-picture which will stop new picture-in-picture boxes, but won't get rid of the white box. The only way to get rid of the white box is to close FireFox completely and then reopen it.
