I make a practice of going into Privacy & Security > Manage Data and deleting individual unrecognized/unwanted cookies; I do this fairly regularly. I find sometimes (like tonight) a number of cookies I deleted a day or a week ago have reappeared. Why is this happening and how can I delete the things so they are really gone? -thx

Requests to music.amazon.com and amazon.com to download mp3 files fail. After a long session with Amazon tech they informed me that they have changed code and 'no longer support' firefox in this regard. A Firefox update is apparently needed. I am making this post mostly to notify mozilla if needed, and to ask if others have had the same problem.

I have three devices using Firefox, all synced under 1 FF account. Three of these devices are working well and continue to sync without issue. My desktop is the fourth device, and it was working until I formatted it and started from scratch. Upon my fresh install of FF 70 on Win 10 1903, I recieve "unexpected error" after only entering my email address in and trying to proceed. This generates an error in the console:
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://api.accounts.firefox.com/v1/account/status. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed).
I have uninstalled and reinstalled FF, cleared my windows profile appdata folder, C:/programdata folder, all registry entries citing mozilla or firefox, and nothing seems to be able to fix this.
Any advice? Thank you!

I have URL directing MS Word to a file on WebDAV server (ms-word:ofe|u|https://server/file.docx). Word is opening file if address is open from shortcut on desktop or url in IE but is not able to open file if url is invoked from Firefox. Word is launched but shows error . Is process launched by URI scheme somehow dependent on application from which it is executed?

Unable to open Word and Excel documents from within SharePoint. This has never been an issue but now the error message is shown. "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (ms-word) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context." The documents should either open in the browser or trigger the desktop app. Installing older versions hasn't fixed this.
Looking for solutions, thanks

This will sound strange, but anyways: I've been using sync from day one, moving all my accumulated logins/passwords to the firefox cloud.
I never did any housekeeping on this mountain of logins. But it suffices to say that before the inclusion of lockwise, showing the list of stored credentials exhibited a delay of some seconds (on a 4th gen core i5) between pressing the buttons to show them and actually opening a window displaying them!
This, happily, changed with lockwise (which also solved some problems on my android devices). I was amazed with the fact that the credentials window opened very fast.
Now I'd normally be very happy with this change. However, I noticed that lockwise in firefox (windows) displays the number of logins/passwords at the upper left. It showed 999... Which is an extremely round number. Coupled with the fact that it opens very fast now, I'm afraid that some change might have occured leading to credentials loss!
Are you aware if a credential limit exists now on firefox regarding credential management, or whether a credential loss/data loss has been reported on the sync cloud?
This is *hugely* important for me, stability of this feature would be enough for me to switch to another browser.
I think I have a number of rolling backups on one of my sync-connected Windows PC. When were the new lockwise-related changes introduced? Asking here, in order to check a backup older than that.

Download icon messes up page downloads

For the longest time, I could go to a page and hit CTRL+S and the entire page would save. It would save an html file and a folder with all the files needed for that page.
Since updating to version 68, when I hit CTRL+S on a page, I get a little yellow dot on the download icon. This is something that has shown up a few times - it means something didn't download. But always if I click the icon I can hit the circle arrow thingy and it will complete the download. So naturally I did that and it said the download completed. But when I went to look for it, it was not there. Sometimes the folder is there with one or two files - or no files.
But here's the wacky thing: if I DON'T attempt to refresh the download and just go to my Downloads folder - the entire page is there. The whole thing. Fully downloaded. But the little yellow dot is on the download icon and there is a circle arrow thingy saying it didn't complete. If I click that circle arrow thingy - after seeing the files had downloaded - it will tell me the download is complete, but the files will have disappeared!
If that ain't a bug, I don't know what is.
It only happens with full page downloads. Everything else downloaded in the normal way (ie right-click, etc) is properly downloaded and the icon displays as expected.

I am running Firefox 70.0.1 (64 bit) on Win10. I assume most of my problem started after being updated to this Firefox version.
I have hundreds, if not thousands of bookmarks and have been running Firefox since its inception. I constantly import my bookmarks when I go from one machine to a new one over the years.
Because of the volume of bookmarks I have, I keep my most regularly used bookmarks at the top so when this happened, I noticed immediately since I could not find my most active ones.
I went to Firefox "Show all bookmarks" and did a restore from a few days prior and it seemed to be OK.
I shut down last night and when I restarted this morning. They were again shuffled, seemingly somewhat randomly.
Some time ago I noticed that my very long list had duplicated itself as if taking the whole list and appending it to the bottom of the list in the same order but since everything was there and in order I figured I would fix that some time in the future and never got around to it. Now I'm noticing that my bookmark folders have duplicated lists of their folders and sub-folders duplicated within the folder.
Is there a limit that I reached which is causing corruption and duplication or is it something else.
I am very hesitant to take some steps for fear of losing the whole bookmarks database but I have to do something.
Any safe ideas? Anyone having any similar issues?

Why can't I log into my old firefox account from 2013? My account was considered a "Theme Artist" and I only ever uploaded one theme. But it says the email doesn't exist when I try to recover the password through the email. Yes it is 100% the correct email, I've only EVER had two emails, I'm certain it was this one and I even have old emails from mozilla themselves talking about my account. As you can see in the screenshot though it says it's from "nobody@mozilla", but it definitely wasn't a phishing email so a lot internally has probably changed within mozilla since 2015. But, how do I talk to an actual developer to recover my account as obviously you guys wouldn't be able to help with this. I know it was a long time ago and a lot has probably changed internally with mozilla but I would like access to my account back.
Oh, and yes my artwork Theme is still uploaded to the addons website: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/7768082/
Hope someone can help.
