I keep trying to import my passwords from Chrome. (Working on Mac OS.) Every time, it asks me for my 'login' password from keychain. The problem is, I don't use keychain. I don't have any kind of separate password for it. The prompt pop-up won't accept my computer's login password, my Apple login password, my Google account login password, the password from the password manager my computer is set to use by default... Nothing works. What does it even WANT from me at this point?

I'm using Firefox Developer Edition 143.0b5 (64-bit), running on macOS Big Sur (11.7.10). My bookmarks for Facebook, Instagram, and Threads won't load on the first click. Most of the time I am presented with a blank white page. Sometimes I might get part of the page to show. I have to click on the bookmark a second time and then the page loads completely. This behavior doesn't happen with any other bookmarks I have.

Anyone know why this is happening?

As of a two days ago, passkey functionality in Firefox is not working (v142.0.1 on MacOS 15.6.1). I have a passkey setup with Google, and when I sign in and the popup should appear for the passkey, it no longer does. This also causes Firefox to become unresponsive and must be force-quit. Any solutions?

A few things are going on since I put Firefox on this Mac, and I'm not sure if they're related:

• I can't import my logins.csv
• any time I try to save a new login, the little blue "password saved" notification pops up, but no passwords are saved
• when I try to pair with my mobile, Firefox won't display the QR code, and instead it's blurred out and says "Pairing unsuccessful. Try Again."
• more recently (last week or so, maybe?) the desktop browser logs me out of my account every day or two

Desktop and mobile are the most recent versions.

When I'm playing videos on Mozilla and close the lid on my MacBook and reopen it, the video resumes playing. Is there a way to make the video pause when i close the lid and the video remains paused, when reopened? Just so used to this feature and really wanna avoid any embarrassment in public.

HOW can I restore my bookmarks . It appears that after a short 10 second electrical disruption my bookmarks and email disappeared and other changes to the home page as well. What happened and how to restore. I went through the process on my mini mac computer but no results.

when I change the settings for permissions on a website adn close the settings window and reopen it, the settings go back to the default before I changed the settings...how do I save the permissions?

As it says in the subject line, the `reopen closed tab` keyboard shortcut cmd+shift+T doesn't do anything on Firefox for MacOS. Weirdly enough, the keyboard shortcut for `new tab` cmd+T does work, as does the other typical shortcuts (search, cut, copy, paste, new window, reopen closed window, etc.). So I'm puzzled why this one is the exception.

I've also noticed that using the other shortcuts light up the respective menu in the top bar (File when cmd+T, Edit when cmd+F, Bookmarks when cmd+shift+O, etc.), but pressing cmd+shift+T does not. Not sure if that's a useful hint or not.

I can still right click the current tab and select `Reopen closed tab` option from there, which is what I've been doing, but it definitely interrupts the flow I have when all of the other usual shortcuts I use work and then this one doesn't.

Thank you, and have a good day.

I have been advised by BMO bank that the notice: "Error code: AK_DNY - 76.144.82.174" when trying to access their site "https://usdigital.bmo.com/www/#/need-help" means that Firefox will not communicate effectively with them. They suggested I use Google Chrome or a microsoft product-I use neither! I finally accessed using Safari. I really want to continue to use GFirefox, which I have been using for several years now.

Pls advise. [edited email from public support forum]

When I open a browser website through Firefox - it now opens to a small screen. I have to go to settings to make it full screen. It has opened previously in full screen. How do I make it open in full screen now? I'm using a MacBook Air. Thank you.

Hello and thank you for the help,

I have tried applying for any college on CCCapply's home page (https://home.cccapply.org/en/) and once I input the college and click it or click enter, I either get stuck at a white page or CCCapply has an error page saying I am using a proxy.

I have tested this on macOS Sequoia, Windows 11, Linux Mint, all on the newest updated Firefox. I also tried this on mobile Android and had the same issue.

I have tried on Campus networks, home networks, and cellular networks, all the same issue. Chrome, Edge, and Opera all work perfectly fine.

After trying normally, I have deleted all browser data/cache, turned off Enhanced Tracking Protection and every security setting I could find in the settings and still run into the same issue.

Thank you for the help, Connor

Hi,

It doesn't appear there is a way to increase the font size in the browser sidebar. I am using Claude there the output is very difficult to read. I know how to use shortcuts or mouse motions to increase on the main page, but those done appear to do anything in the sidebar.

Can I request this feature somewhere?

Thanks, Pat

Looking for a way to find a certain tab when I have multiple windows open which have several tabs in each. Have looked through Mozilla support and find no reference to the Move & Resize and Full Screen Tile choices on the Window tab so don't know if either would help. Mac running Sequoia 15.2 and Firefox 138.0.3

Recently the audio is only coming out of the left side in videos I uploaded from my iPhone. This does not happen in Safari or Chrome where the audio is perfect, only in Firefox for the Mac. I've gone through the usual troubleshooting methods like opening in safe mode, clearing the cookies and cache, checking settings, etc and can't seem to fix this. Can you help? Thank you, Larry

When I started Firefox today, there was a new tab with some information about something or other I have completely forgotten, as I soon discovered all of my bookmarks were gone, which is the only thing I can think about right now. I easily found advice about how to switch to another profile that might contain my missing bookmarks, but I have only one profile listed, the default one. I also easily found advice about how to go to the Library and import a backup. I can get as far as clicking "Choose File," but after I do that, absolutely nothing happens, no matter how long I wait.

My browsing history in Firefox on mac is incomplete. It used to show complete history, every site, and now only shows a few. How can I fix this to show all history?

Was just curious about cookies and what they are doig on my system, I know what they are and what they do but wondered how bad they are for privacy and as well as performace on my machine. I apparently have 2.6gb of cookies, that's a lot of 1s and 0s! I am now going to delete them, but wondered all this time, are all of these cookies recording my every move on the internet and selling this data back to advertisers so I can be easily targeted??? I have ad-blockers anyway, just wondered if there is a good cookie killer?? Or are there any settings in Firefox I have missed.. I did see I did not have the 'strict' controls set which I will do now. Thanks.
